"A treasure-store of the treasures of happiness you have received from the Father, the Bestower of Blessings."

BapDada is pleased to see the fortune of the kingdom of the children. Compared to the rest of the world, you souls are so elevated! You souls are so full of all treasures. Because of the praise of the fullness of you elevated souls, this place is also constantly praised. Even now, at the end, this land of Bharat is praised even abroad as a great land. This place is important because of you great living souls. Even today, people’s vision goes towards Bharat for spiritual treasures. Bharat may be considered poor in terms of physical wealth, but, in terms of spiritual treasures and the treasures of imperishable peace, happiness and power, it is considered to be the wealthiest of all. So, this place is praised because of your completely full stage at the confluence age. You become so full of these treasures that these treasures you have attained continue for half the cycle. You accumulate so many treasures that you continue to eat from those for many births. At no other time of the cycle can anyone become like this. Because the confluence age is the smallest of all ages, it has the shortest duration. To the extent that this is your short life and short age, accordingly the income you earn at this time is the most elevated. Are you constantly aware of your treasures? Are you aware of what treasures you have received, from whom you have received them and for how long they are going to last? The Father has given everyone the same treasures: He hasn’t given a hundred-thousand-fold to some and a thousand-fold to others. All of you children have received unlimited, infinite treasures from the Father. Do you constantly consider yourselves to be fully satisfied souls with these infinite treasures? Satisfied souls would only see the Father and the treasures in front of them. They constantly dance in the intoxication of having found the greatest treasures of all. Other souls try to attain these treasures through various methods and yet remain deprived of them. What are these treasures that you have found? What treasures do the people of the world want today; treasures for which they wander from place to place? You souls have not only acquired these treasures for the present time, but you have also accumulated them for many births. What are these treasures you have found?

The greatest treasure of all is the treasure of happiness. People are desperate to experience this happiness, whereas all of you are constantly dancing in this happiness. In your memorials, too, people have portrayed you in a pose of happiness. Do you remember your image? From amrit vela onwards, use this treasure of happiness, think about it and talk to yourself about it. Who appears in front of you as soon as you open your eyes? With whom do you celebrate a meeting first of all in your thoughts? You celebrate a meeting with the Creator of the World, the Bestower of All Treasures, the Bestower of All Blessings and the Seed in whom the whole tree is latent. All other souls become beggars and follow many difficult paths simply with the desire to have one second’s glimpse of the Father, whereas you elevated souls have a right to the elevated treasure of experiencing a meeting with the Father in all relationships. The foremost happiness is at amrit vela when you celebrate meeting the Father in all relationships. Souls of the world are beggars whereas you are His children. Can there be any greater happiness than this? So, use this treasure of happiness from amrit vela onwards. The key to the treasure-store is to use these treasures in your lives.

The second treasure of happiness - you are the long-lost and now-found, elevated souls whom God, Himself, comes from the Supreme abode to teach. He doesn’t come from London or America; He comes from beyond this physical world, from a place where scientists couldn’t even dream of going to; He comes from the supreme abode especially to teach you. Moreover, He doesn’t even charge you any fees ! In fact, He, Himself, doesn’t claim the reward of this study, which is the self-sovereignty of heaven, but gives it to you. Can there be anything of greater happiness than this? Use these treasures with this awareness. Now, let us move on.

You carry out your work whilst playing the part of a karma yogi, that is, one who does everything in the Father’s company. At the time when you are doing some karma yoga, whether it is lokik or alokik, the Almighty Authority is fulfilling His responsibility to you at every moment as your Friend . You will never find such a Friend again. Sometimes, He fulfils His responsibility in the form of your Friend and sometimes in the form of your combined Partner. He does this in His unique form of your Partner and constantly tells you: Give Me all your burdens and you will remain constantly light. Whenever you have anything difficult to do, surrender it to Me and the difficulty will become easy. In playing your part of a karma yogi, use the treasures of His Companionship and have the happiness of His constant Company. Now, let us move on.

When you become free from all your business activities, you have the greatest form of enjoyment. Whatever you enjoy doing, be it going out, seeing things, studying, adorning yourself, dancing or having a heart-to-heart conversation; whatever it is you enjoy doing, you have all the means of having all types of enjoyment. If you want to see something, then look at heaven or the greatness of the confluence age. Watch the drama of the alokik story of your task and the Father’s task. If you want to take a tour, tour the three worlds. If you want to adorn yourself, then adorn yourself with the details of every virtue. If you want to watch a drama , watch the drama of 5000 years. If you want to study history , study the history of your 84 births. If you want to have a heart-to-heart conversation, then talk as a spirit to your Creator, the Father of the spirits. What else do you want? By using all these means, keep yourself constantly happy, that is, use these treasures.

After preparing food and before eating it, you first have to offer it to Baba. You first of all have to make Baba, the most Beloved, accept it. Prepare food in the awareness of who it is you are going to feed! In today’s world if the President or Prime Minister were to come to you for dinner, you would become so happy! However, compared to the Father, what are they? The Father constantly dines with you. Poor devotees become tired from ringing bells again and again. Whilst calling out to Him, they even forget Him! However, the Father has promised you, His children, that He will always be with you. Baba eats with you and sits with you; what greater happiness than this could you want? At meal times remember the slogan : I eat with You alone. Use this treasure of happiness in this way. Now, carry on from here.

It is now the end of the day; the night has come. What do you do at night? Before you go to sleep, you share your news of the whole day with Him, either in the combined form or in His form of your Father. Give Him today’s news and take inspirations for the next day’s elevated thoughts and deeds. To exchange all the news means to become light. Just as you go to sleep at night in a loose-fitting dress , so too, make your intellect light by wearing a light dress . Get ready in this way and go to sleep with Baba; don’t go to sleep alone. When you are alone, Maya takes that chance . Therefore, remain constantly with Baba. When you are alone, you can be afraid, but you can also become fearless. You will remain fearless and Maya will become afraid. So use the treasure of the happiness of His constant company throughout the night. Now tell Me, can you elevated souls, who have all the elevated treasures of happiness, ever become unhappy throughout the day? Or, can such souls be attracted to any other form of entertainment or any temporary treasure? You are the elevated souls who are completely full. Even today, just by hearing your name, your devotee souls experience so much happiness. When they see your non-living idols, they begin to dance in happiness. You all have the fortune of such happiness. You have received plenty of treasures. Now, simply use them! Use the key! Sometimes, although you have been given the key, you are unable to find it at the right time - you have misplaced it. Therefore, keep it constantly in front of you! Constantly keep it in your awareness. Refresh your memory again and again as to what treasures you have received and what key you have to unlock them. Put into practice everything you have been told for every type of act, that is, put what you know into practice . Do you understand what you have to do? Achcha.

To the souls who are always completely full of all treasures, to those who fulfil their responsibility of every relationship with the Father, to those who constantly experience the Father to be their Companion, to those who are fearless in front of Maya, to such fully satisfied souls, to the souls who are the masters of all treasures, BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste.

BapDada meeting groups: Karnataka Zone :

1. Is your complete angelic form of the previous cycle constantly in front of you? Do you experience yourselves to have been angels in the previous cycle and angels at this time too? An angel means one who has all relationships with the one Father. Do you experience belonging to the one Father and none other? Or, do other relationships also come into your awareness? Those who have all relationships with the one Father would experience all other relationships to be just in name. They would be constantly dancing in happiness. They would never experience tiredness. Those who have the stage of being equal to the Father would be tireless; they would never become tired. They would be constantly deeply absorbed in love of the Father and service. So, is each of you a destroyer of obstacles, or is there sometimes love and sometimes obstacles at the same time? You don’t come to a halt when obstacles come, do you? Obstacles have come every cycle and you have become destroyers of those obstacles every cycle. What is the difficulty for those who have been experienced in every cycle to simply repeat? Always remain aware that you have been victorious every cycle. You have done everything many times and are now simply repeating it. So, you should be an easy yogi! You have now finished ( completed) the complaint of: “What can I do? How can I do this?”. All the complaints of such complete souls finish. To become full means to become content. The reason for becoming discontented is a lack of some attainment. It is the lack of some attainment that gives birth to discontentment. The praise that is sung for the deities, “Nothing is lacking in their treasure-store”, does not apply to the deities, it is the praise of you Brahmins. A master almighty authority means one who has become completely full. As is your aim, so should be your qualifications. If you have an aim, but your qualifications are not according to that aim, if you have the aim of becoming perfect and you lack something in your dharna, that is, in your practice , there is then a difference, is there not? Achcha.

All of you are constantly laughing. You don’t cry, do you? Those who cry cannot become the Father’s partners. “What can I do? I want to do this, but these people are stopping me. Help me! Bless me!”. This too is crying. How can the Father take back with Him those who cry in this way? In order for you children to go back with Him, you have to become the same as the Father; you have to become equal to the Father. Whatever act you perform, first check whether it is the same as the Father’s. If it isn’t what He would do, then cut it there and then; do not carry on! If anything you do is not elevated, but just ordinary, then change it and make it elevated. In this way, you will become completely full and equal to the Father.

2. The way to claim blessings from everyone is to serve.

Does each of you perform every act whilst considering yourself to be co-operative with the Father and a world benefactor? When you have the aim of being a world benefactor, nothing you do would cause damage (or be unbeneficial). As is your occupation, so should be your dharna. When you constantly remember your occupation you will become merciful and a great donor. When you take every step in the awareness and attitude of being a benefactor for the self and a world benefactor, you will enable others to do the same. Only when you take every step as a benefactor for yourself can there be benefit for the world. Constantly remember that you are carrying out this task as an instrument. Finish the consciousness of “mine” and remember that you are just an instrument. By serving in this way, you will automatically remember the Father. The more service you do, the more blessings you will receive from all the souls of the world and the more good wishes you will receive from them. Achcha.

3. With Godly intoxication, the goal of the karmateet stage is very close.

You elevated souls are those who receive all attainments directly from the Father, the Ocean of Love, whereas all other souls attain something or another from elevated souls. You are those who attain all attainments directly from God, so, do you have this elevated intoxication? To the extent that you have this intoxication, so the goal of the karmateet stage will be seen to be that much closer. If there is less intoxication, the goal will seem further away. By maintaining this spiritual intoxication, you easily forget the world of sorrow. In that intoxication (being drunk) you forget everything, do you not? So, by staying in this Godly intoxication, you forget the old world for all time. There is no damage caused with this intoxication: the more your intoxication rises, the better. With that intoxication, the more you drink, the more you finish yourself. Here, with this intoxication, you become imperishable. When observers see someone who is drunk, they see that that one is intoxicated. Similarly, when they see you, they should experience you to be intoxicated. If your intoxication rises one moment and comes down the next, then you will not have the pleasure that you should. Therefore, remain constantly intoxicated. There are all attainments with this intoxication. The awareness of belonging to the one Father and none other enables your intoxication to rise. With this awareness, you also develop power.

You have heard a lot, and now put into practice what you have heard and make it practical. BapDada wishes to see all the children as practical idols who grant a vision in the living form. When the living idols become ready, then non-living idols will finish and this Bharat will become an unlimited temple. All the other many (temples) will finish and it will become one big temple. Achcha.

4. The confluence age has the blessing of being the time to earn an income of multimillions at every step.

Do you consider yourselves to be the multimillion times fortunate souls who earn an income of multimillions at every step? Do you check whether you are accumulating at every step? The confluence age has received this blessing: to accumulate multimillions at every step. So, if you do not accumulate in any second or with any step, then so much damage is incurred. In lokik life too, if you do not earn anything for one day, you worry. That is a limited income whereas this is an unlimited income. One step of the present time enables you to accumulate an income of multimillions, and so how much attention should you pay here? Do you pay this much attention or do you take ordinary steps? Now that this is your alokik birth, every step should be alokik, not ordinary. What would be the sign of those who accumulate an income of multimillions at every step? The sparkle of attainment would be constantly visible on their faces. Just as you see a sparkle of something physical, in the same way, the sparkle of attainment would be visible on their faces.

Those who come into contact with you would feel that you have attained something. They would be attracted to you and come in front of you of their own accord. So, the fullness of your face will be an instrument for service. Do you remain constantly happy or does Maya sometimes snatch your treasures of happiness away? Is the gate of Maya shut or open? Now, put a proper double lock on the gate . Maya will open a single lock and enter. Keep the double lock of remaining busy in remembrance and service. If you simply stay in remembrance and do not do service, then, too, Maya will come. Maya will not enter through a double lock . She will knock, but not enter, that is, she will not be able to attack you. There is a lot of service to be done through the mind. Make the atmosphere powerful with your attitude. The whole world has to be transformed, and so the atmosphere will be transformed through your attitude. Achcha.

5. The means to reach the complete and perfect stage of the first birth is a high jump .

The time for making effort has now passed, because the speed of time is very intense. Those who have come later have to finish the whole of the study in a short time and they therefore have to make intense effort and take a high jump . In order to make intense effort, simply pay attention to one thing: Keep your perfect stage in front of you and check your present chart. If the perfect stage is 16 celestial degrees, then out of the 16 celestial degrees, how many have you imbibed? Continue to check yourself in this way. Continue to fill the gap. This is known as effort. Achcha.

At the time of leaving:

Just as the Father is pleased to see the children, similarly, each child should be constantly dancing in happiness. A happy face does more service than words. Let your face become a living, mobile museum. Just as you have different pictures in a museum , similarly, all the Father’s virtues should be visible from your face. When you serve through words, you have to go there physically and speak to them, whereas when you serve through your face, you can go there even without being invited. So, all of you should now make yourselves into living museums . When all of you become museums, heaven will then be inaugurated. Father Brahma is waiting for this inauguration to take place. Therefore, get ready quickly so that the inauguration can take place quickly. When will you carry out the inauguration? Can the date be fixed or will it take place suddenly? What will happen?

The confluence age is good, but you also need to have the thought that you have to give everyone happiness and peace. When you see others unhappy and desperate, you should feel mercy. Achcha.
