"The way to have remembrance easily is to consider yourself to be a Godly helper."
19 December 1979 · English
Today, BapDada is always very pleased to see His co-operative and easy yogi children who are called Godly helpers. A Godly helper is one who always remains engaged in the task, that is, in the service, that God the Father has given him. Children should also have the special intoxication of being engaged in the service given to them by God. Whilst carrying out a task, you would never forget the One who has given you that task. Even if you may be doing something physical, that physical service is a task given to you by God. Therefore, whilst doing any physical service, remain aware that the Father gave you that direction directly ; that you are doing it according to the Father’s directions and you will then never forget the Father. A special task would be given by a special person. When a President gives someone a task to carry out, that person would never forget the President whilst performing that task; he would easily and naturally remember him. Without even wanting it, that President would appear in front of him. In the same way, the highest-on-high Father has given you this task to perform. Therefore, whilst performing this task, how could you forget the One who gave you this task? So, the way to have remembrance easily is constantly to consider yourself to be a helper of God.
They have a saying on the path of devotion; although they don’t understand what’s behind it, they believe that, even when a leaf moves, it is the Father who is making that leaf move. However, you know the secret behind it: that it is not the Father that is making the leaf move, but in fact everything that happens is according to the drama . This saying doesn’t apply to physical leaves, but to all of you who are the first leaves of the kalpa tree. All of you golden-aged leaves of the confluence-age have been changed by the Father from being like iron to divine being. All of you living leaves are being moved directly by the Father at this time. The Father’s direction is: The Father’s thought should be your thought. Your every thought, your every word and your every deed should be equal to those of the Father. That is, the thoughts of all of you are according to this shrimat. At this time, all of you leaves are moving along at every moment according to the Father’s elevated instructions. He is making every leaf move, that is, He is making all of you leaves move along. Any thought you might have that is not according to His shrimat would be a waste thought. So, this saying does not belong to the path of devotion but is the praise of the confluence age. All of you leaves are moving, that is, you are moving along according to the Father’s shrimat, are you not? You are moving along in this way, are you not? It is the Father’s duty to instruct you how to move. So, why do you still find it difficult? Since the Father has taken all of your burdens, why are you not constantly flying? Anything light constantly flies high. You should be so light in every thought that, if the Father makes you have a thought, then you will do so; you will move along as He makes you move. This was everyone’s promise and the Father guarantees is that He will make you move along, so what order have your intellects been given? Do you know what task the Father has given your intellects? The place for your intellects to sit is next to the Father and your task is world service. You have promised Baba that you will sit where He seats you and move along as He makes you move, have you not? Is this in terms of your body or your intellect? Together with your body, have you also given your mind? Or have you only given your body? You have promised, have you not, that you will sit, move, do and eat whatever Baba asks you to do with your body and also your intellect? So, the food for your intellect is pure thoughts. You have promised that you will eat whatever Baba gives you to eat, and so why do you take the food of waste thoughts? Your mouth is not allowed to eat anything impure, so how can you allow your intellect to eat the impure food of wasteful or sinful thoughts? It would then be wrong to say that you eat whatever He feeds you. You are those whose words and deeds are the same, are you not? Therefore, by constantly remembering this promise for your mind and intellect, you will become an easy yogi. As soon as the Father said something, you did it. Do not keep a burden on yourself. Without becoming free of the burden of, “How can I do this? How can I move?” you will be unable to reach your elevated stage. Therefore, continue to follow shrimat even at the level of your thinking and you will become free from having to labour.
BapDada continues to see the different poses of the efforts of many children. Throughout the day, He sees many poses of many children. He has an automatic camera . Scientists have copied everything from the subtle region. You should come to the subtle region sometime and see what there is there. You would find there whatever you want. All of you would then say: “Bring all of those things here.” The Father asks: Do you just want to see the subtle region or do you want to stay there? (We will try it.) Do you have any doubt about it that you want to try it first? Father Brahma is waiting just to call all of you there, so why don’t you become complete? You could very easily become complete; however, since the copper age, you have been developing many sanskars of mixing everything. First, you mixed everything up in your worshipping: you put the face of a monkey on the deities. You mixed everything up in the scriptures. In the biography of the Father, you replaced the Father’s name with that of the child. Similarly, with your household, instead of maintaining a pure household, you mixed impurity into it. Even now, you mix up the dictates of your own mind (manmat) with shrimat. Because of being mixed up, you become heavy. Real gold is very light, but when anything is mixed into it, it becomes heavy. Similarly, shrimat, the most elevated directions, makes you light, but when you mix manmat into it, you become heavy. You then find it difficult to continue to move along. Therefore, don’t mix up anything of yours with shrimat. By remaining constantly light, you will be able to watch all the scenes and scenery of the subtle region whilst remaining down here. You will experience it all as clearly as though you are watching some scene of this world. For this, you simply have to keep your power of thought, your mind and intellect, completely free from any of your own dictates. You have a strong habit of using your mind unnecessarily. When you try to keep it still, it continues to run by itself, and you then have to make effort again. The way you can remain free from your mind racing unnecessarily is similar to what you do when someone cannot be controlled and causes a lot of trouble or goes a bit wild or crazy. He then has to be given an injection to calm him down. In the same way, if you are unable to control the power of your thoughts, take an injection of becoming bodiless. Come and sit next to the Father! Then, your thought power will not run wildly unnecessarily. Do you not know how to sit next to Baba? The only task that Baba has given you is to sit next to Him - nothing else! You now understand that this is very easy but, because you take back the reins of your intellect after having given them to the Father, you then have to make unnecessary effort to control your mind. Now become free from having to labour over anything wasteful. Seeing the children labouring, the Father would feel mercy, would He not?
The Father says: Each of you children should come and sit comfortably on the throne with the Father. Remain seated on your throne and order both your physical organs and your subtle organs – your mind, intellect and sanskars. When you are seated on your throne, you are able to give them orders . If you try to issue an order after you have got off your throne, your organs don’t listen to you. Nowadays, there is upheaval in even a thorn seat (seat of position). However, here, Baba is offering you the seat of a throne, so why do you still get down from it? To get down means to become a servant . Whose servant ? You become your servant’s servant ; the servant of your many organs. This is why you have to labour. Become God’s servant ! Become God’s server. Don’t become your servant’s servant . You can do Godly service whilst remaining seated on your throne; you don’t need to get down. The Father wants to make you sit next to Him, but what do you do? Instead of being confluence-aged queens with the Lord, you become slaves. So, become the true wives of the true Lord – do not become slaves. No one’s vision can fall on someone who remains constantly behind a veil. So, when Maya is in front of you, stay behind your veil and sit with your Lord, and all your slaves will then be ready to serve you. Do you understand what you have to do? From today, step away from labouring. Remain a constantly easy yogi seated on your throne next to the Father.
Today, those from Gujarat and Indore have come here. So, stay behind your veils, that is, remain indoors . Those from Indore must remain constantly indoors . You don’t come out, do you? Each zone is growing very well. Those from Gujarat have made the hall full . Those of you from Gujarat now have to make yourselves full and come quickly and sit comfortably in the subtle region. According to the time, Father Brahma is now invoking all of you children. What will those from Gujarat do? Those from Gujarat should bring “ mikes ” who have loud voices - not physical “ mikes ”, but living “ mikes ”. The set of “ mikes ” you bring should be so powerful that they can make the sound of revelation be heard. Achcha. What will those from Indore Zone bring? Bring a powerful TV set from Indore Zone through which the destruction of the world can be seen very clearly and a bright future is visible. Do you understand what you have to do? Prepare such people through whose TV of experiences the world will be able to have a vision of destruction and establishment . So, both of you Zones prepare such a set before you come again. Achcha.
To such Godly helpers, to those who remain constantly free from labouring, to those whose thoughts and deeds are filled with significance, to those whose every thought and deed are according to the Father’s shrimat, to those who make their deeds equal to their words, to such children who are the Father’s companions, BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste.
In what subject should you teachers make special effort? What deep and subtle efforts are you serviceable children making? The subtle effort you have to make is to check your thoughts. Do you keep a balance of remembrance and service in your thoughts? Was your every thought powerful ? You serviceable children should not have any waste thoughts because you are world benefactors. You are acting on the world stage . The whole world is copying you. If even one thought of yours is wasteful, everyone would copy that. You didn’t just waste your own thought; you became an instrument to make many others waste theirs. Just as you receive the gift of a lift by doing service and you also receive a share of the fruit of having served many, in the same way, if you do something wrong, you become an instrument to teach something wasteful to many others. Therefore, now finish your account of wastefulness. Nowadays, stability of the mind is checked with instruments of science . They have been carried out in London and other places, have they not? These are the instruments of science . However, you need to keep the instruments for your checking at every step. Just as they keep their instruments with them and connect the person to them at the time of checking him. You serviceable children should keep your checking instruments with you at all times. It is not a small thing to become a teacher ! You are not just wearing that name; you also have to act according to that name.
Serviceable children should never have any waste thoughts. If you say that you are having waste thoughts, what would others do? Others would have sinful thoughts. Of course, each of you does pay attention, but you now need to pay much deeper attention . Service should also be done through your thoughts. When you keep the power of your thoughts busy in service, waste automatically ends. Nowadays, they try to keep the youth groups busy with one task or other so that their energy is not channelled into anything destructive. In order to stop rain water being wasted, they build dams and channel that water usefully. In the same way, in order to stop your thought power being wasted, keep it busy in service and then, instead of any thought being wasted, it will become powerful. None of the power of your thoughts, words, deeds or knowledge should go to waste. You have to be economical with all your thoughts, words, deeds and all powers, do you not? In the world, when a family is not economical , it is not able to function well. In the same way, when you children who are instruments are not economical , the centre does not function well. Those are limited households whereas this is an unlimited one. You should check whether you were extravagant in your thoughts, words or powers, and then change yourself accordingly. You must make subtle effort to budget all of your treasures economically and conduct yourself accordingly. You know how to budget things, do you not? Just as you create a register of your physical treasures, in the same way, create a register of these subtle things. As the practical fruit of having renounced everything and become instruments, you have received a centre and also have students. You now have to progress further! Everything you have received is according to however much you have done. Devotees and ordinary people should now be bowing at your feet. You now have to show this practical fruit. You have also received the title of being equal to the Father. The elements too are continuing to be your servants according to your capacity. You must now make progress. You will definitely receive such fruit in a practical way, but you must not accept it. You must now become one who serves through your mind. Those who give others the seven days’ course serve through words. All of you also serve through your acts, but your speciality is of serving through your mind. Adopt this speciality and claim a special number . All of you are content and you have to remain content. In order to become an instrument to teach lessons to others, you must also be able to conduct yourself according to the directions you are given. You are those who teach lessons in a practical way by example; not just through your words. You have taken a good jump . What will you do now? After you have jumped , you must stay in the flying stage , and constantly fly to the subtle region in the bodiless stage. Constantly continue to fly in your bodiless stage . Achcha.
BapDada meeting groups:
1.Experience a powerful stage by remembering the praise that the Father has given you.
Do you constantly sing songs of the praise of your fortune? When someone sings ordinary worldly songs, there is so much happiness experienced. Even on the path of devotion, when people sing kirtan (devotional songs), they are so happy. So, all of you should also constantly continue to sing songs of the praise that the Father has given you. What were we before and what has the Father made us! Remember that and remain constantly cheerful. Power is merged in remembering this because it was the Father who made you powerful, was it not? What you hadn’t wanted to become even in your dreams, you are experiencing that in the corporeal form and this is why BapDada says that all of you children are lucky stars. So, you are lucky stars, are you not?
Those who constantly sparkle are said to be stars. Continue to sparkle with the treasures of powers and knowledge that you have received from the Father. Are you like that? You are not those who are hidden amidst the clouds, are you? You are those who constantly light up the world with your sparkle, are you not? You have happily stepped away from the old world. You are no longer a resident of the old world; you are a resident of the confluence age. So, have you stepped away from the old world or you still have to do so? What do you think? Someone would not go to buy something old from the old world when you go to meet an old friend, would he? Nowadays, even those standing on the border sometimes deliberately go the enemy’s country. You do not cross the border and go to the old world, do you? The new world is standing in front of you and you have stepped away from the old world. Do not go into the old world even in your thoughts. If you go there, you will become trapped. Therefore, constantly consider yourself to be at the confluence age. At the confluence age, you would remember the Father and the inheritance.
In effort, there has to be a balance of both your self-progress and progress in service. Do you keep making plans for both? What plans have you made now? (To have a spiritual fair at the Kumbha mela in Ujjain.) You are making preparations for the mela with a lot of splendour. It is good. However, maintain this special attention: let the atmosphere of the mela be so peaceful that any people who come with an attitude of chaos and fluctuation would feel that they have come to a different place altogether. There may be noise everywhere else but with you, let them have the experience of having reached a place of peace (shanti-kund). Let even those who are standing on duty outside be standing there as bestowers of the blessing of peace. Let your vibrations of peace make them peaceful. Through this, there will be the sound in the whole mela that they went there for just two minutes, but have come back with an experience of very good peace. Those who used to come at the beginning of establishment used to experience from the chanting of Om that that was a place of peace. Similarly, let them experience peace in this mela. The mood of those who come to a mela is completely different. Those melas are like a bazaar , and so, although they come peaceless, it is essential to give them an experience of peace through which they would feel that is special.
Invite everyone with love and everyone will become happy on seeing your love. No matter how others are speaking, when you speak peacefully with love, that will create an impact. Those who have come onto the stage from time to time will internally accept this on seeing it. Now, everyone’s eyes have lowered a little, but their heads haven’t bowed down. Eventually, everyone will bow down. For everyone to bow down means that there will be victory. Then, after the revolution, there will be peace. They have now taken the first pose of bowing down and they will finally bow down to the feet.
2. The duty of the merciful children of the merciful Father is to show everyone their destination.
Everyone has experienced a beggary life and have now become full of all treasures. When children who have become full of all treasures see others, they will have mercy that they too should find their destination and that they should also benefit. You definitely have to give the Father’s introduction to whoever comes into contact with you. When someone comes to your home, you definitely offer them some water. If they go away without having anything, you would feel bad, would you not? Therefore those who come in contact with you, offer them the water of the Father’s introduction. If you relate a little knowledge to them, that is like offering them water. If you give them the seven days’ course , that is like giving them Brahma bhojan. You definitely have to give something or other because you are the children of the Bestower. Achcha.
