"Today, the Father, the Ocean of Knowledge, has come to the shores of the ocean to meet His holy swans who pick up jewels of knowledge. Each holy swan is picking up so many jewels of knowledge and dancing in happiness. Baba is watching you swans dance in that happiness. This spiritual dance of the spiritual happiness of the swans is so lovely and unique to the whole cycle."

Each swan experiences great happiness seeing the different waves of the ocean. So, what has BapDada come to see today? The dance of the swans. You are good at dancing , are you not? Baba is also listening to the songs of happiness in each one’s mind. You cannot dance without a song. So, music is playing and a dance is taking place. Can all of you hear this song of happiness? This song can’t be heard through the ears, because the songs of the mind can only be heard in the mind. The moment you become “Manmanabhav,” you start singing and hearing the song. All of you have received the blessing of the great mantra, “Manmanabhav”. What was the first blessing you received from the Satguru when you came to belong to Him? “Manmanabhav! The Father, in the form of the Satguru, is looking at you children who have been blessed. All of you are master satgurus, children of the Satguru, who have imbibed the great mantra. You are great donors and ones who are blessed. Or, it can be said that you are the grandchildren of the Guru. Grandchildren have greater rights. As children of Brahma, you are also grandchildren, are you not? You are children and grandchildren too. You have as many relationships as the Father does. You are souls who have a right to all relationships. You are very clever in taking something from the Father, the Innocent Lord. You are also clever businessmen. Have you made a bargain? Did you ever think that you would make a bargain with God? And, what did you receive in the bargain? What did you receive as a bargain? (Liberation and liberation-in-life.) Is that all, just liberation and liberation-in-life? Together with the Businessman, Baba is also the Magician. You have made such a bargain that there is no need for any other bargain. You haven’t made a bargain for just anything; you have made a bargain with the Bestower of everything: everything is included in that, is it not? You have made the Bestower belong to you. Achcha. Now, Baba will have to have a heart-to-heart conversation with you double -foreigners.

BapDada’s meeting with different groups:

New York, America: Do you experience yourselves to be the souls who are a handful out of multi-millions and a selected few out of that? Do you have the happiness and intoxication that you are the souls who have a direct relationship with the Father and who play a part with the Father in the drama? How many things have you imbibed to remain constantly happy? BapDada is pleased to see every beloved, long-lost and now-found child. How long has it been since you met Baba? You do remember this, do you not? Maintain the awareness that you are the elevated souls who play a special part with the Father who is the Highest on High. Then, as is your awareness, so accordingly will be your stage. Whatever you hear, continue to merge that within you. The more you merge what you hear within yourself, the more you will continue to become the practical form of that. Let there be the experience of every virtue. Constantly check yourself to see to what extent you experience each virtue. Are you just filled with knowledge or are you an image of experience? Check this because it is only at the confluence age that you can experience every virtue. If you lack the experience of any particular virtue, then pay special attention and definitely become experienced in that. The more you become an image of experience, the stronger your foundation will become. Maya will not be able to shake you. From now on experience any type of obstacle or problem to be like a game; it is not an attack, but a game! By considering it to be a game, you will be able to overcome it in happiness, whereas by considering it to be an attack, you will get frightened and come into turmoil. You are actors in the drama. Therefore, any scene that is in front of you is just in the play and part of the drama. Keep this awareness and you will remain constant and not fluctuate. So, now bring about this transformation before you leave. Finish all fluctuation before you leave here. Constantly experience yourself to have a tilak of victory and all upheaval will come to an end. Look, America is considered to be very high in the world. Therefore, the Brahmins would be so high! However much a country is praised, the praise of Brahmin souls there is even greater. You children should become number one in service. If each of you becomes a lighthouse to reveal the Father, then the contrast between the W hite House and the lighthouse will be seen. They bring about destruction and you are the ones who carry out establishment. Now, show some wonders! Some special souls have been made instruments. Now, change them from just being contacts and form a relationship with them. Form such a close relationship with them that the praise they sing of the Father reaches the world. Look, BapDada has selected you children, who had gone into other religions and has also enabled you to emerge. So, you are especially fortunate, are you not? You went searching for the Father, and the Father found you! Even though you did go searching for Him you couldn't have found Him, because you didn't have His introduction. This is why the Father selected you souls and made you into flowers of His garden. So, all of you are now spiritual roses of the Garden of Allah. Do you consider yourself to be so fortunate?

The Father has the happiness that even though you souls don't know the language, you have still become loving souls and have reached here to claim your rights. You do consider yourselves to be souls who have all rights, do you not? You are the souls who have deep love and have therefore come to this great pilgrimage place in order to claim your rights once again. Achcha.

BapDada meeting a group from Japan:

All of you are souls seated on BapDada's heart-throne. Do you consider yourselves to be such elevated souls? This bouquet of a variety of flowers is very beautiful. What is your position in the bouquet? The little ones are equal to God. For how long have you children been remembered? BapDada has been remembering you Japanese children for a very long time and you have now reached the Father’s land of blessings practically . Do you consider yourselves to be so fortunate? What are the special signs shown for Japan? One is the flag and the other is the fan . (Everyone had been given a fan to fan themselves.) So, BapDada always reminds the children: Keep flying! This is why fans are shown. The initial foundation of service abroad is Japan. So, there is your importance. All of you have arrived here because of BapDada's invocation. You have come here because BapDada called you. All of you are good showpieces for the showcase . The whole Brahmin family is happy to see you golden dolls . Do you experience yourselves to be long-lost and now-found members of the family and also of BapDada?

Enable such special souls from Japan to emerge that, after one of them comes here, many others will receive the message. A variety of different types of service can emerge from there. If you make a little effort, a lot more fruit will emerge. For this, first, make the atmosphere of the place very powerful . Make them feel as though they have come to a living temple. The atmosphere should be of such spiritual fragrance that it attracts everyone from a distance. The atmosphere can pull many souls. The land is very good and a lot of fruit can emerge. It just needs a little extra effort and a powerful atmosphere. As soon as you think of service, success will come in front of you. When the atmosphere becomes spiritual, everything will automatically work out fine. Everyone will become united and constant. Then, because the atmosphere would be powerful Maya will not be able to come. In order to make the atmosphere powerful, have programmes of remembrance and have an exchange of experiences for your personal progress. Have small loving gatherings (sneh-milans). Have classes for dharna and you will achieve success.

At the time of taking leave, BapDada meeting Didi and Dadi:

You all also have to stay awake. You work hard throughout the day and you also have to stay awake at night. BapDada constantly congratulates the children. He surrenders Himself to you both because of your courage and enthusiasm. He is pleased to see this. If He were to praise you, there would be so much praise. Just as it is said of the Father's: “Even if you made the whole ocean into ink, it wouldn't be enough”, similarly, the children’s praise would be just as much. Seeing the praise of the children, the Father constantly surrenders Himself. Each child is playing his own hero part on the stage . All of you are true hero actors of the one Father. Therefore, the Father is so proud! Throughout the whole cycle, there could not be such a Father or such children. If the songs of praise of each one were to be sung, the rosary of songs would become so long! Brahma and Shiv Baba chit-chat a great deal between themselves. That One says: Wah, My children! Then, this one says: Wah, my children! (At what time do they chat with one another?) They can do that whenever they want. They are both busy and also both free throughout the day. They are independent and also companions. Since they are combined, how could they be seen apart? Can you separate them? If someone were to separate them, they would still come back together. Just as Bap and Dada have a combined form, so you are also like that, are you not? You cannot be separated from the Father either. Achcha.
