"The beauty is in the essence of the expansion."

BapDada is seeing the expansion and also the children who are in the form of the essence of the expansion. The expansion is the beauty of this Godly tree and the children who are in the form of the essence are the fruit of the tree. The expansion is always in a variety form and everyone always likes the splendour of the variety form. The splendour of the variety is definitely the decoration of the tree, but it is the fruit, the form of the essence that is powerful. You are always happy to see the expansion but when you see the fruit, there is the hope of being constantly powerful. BapDada too is seeing the essence amidst the expansion. The essence looks so beautiful amidst the expansion. All of you have experienced this. There is such a big difference between the percentage of the essence and the percentage of the expansion. You also know this, do you not? The speciality of the expansion is its own and the expansion is necessary, but it is the fruit, the form of the essence that is valuable. This is why BapDada is pleased to see both. He loves the leaves which are the expansion and He also loves the flowers and the fruit. This is why BapDada also has to become a server like you children in order to come here and meet you. Unless He becomes the same form as you, there cannot be a meeting in the corporeal form. Whether you are souls of the expansion or souls in the form of the essence, both types belong to the Father, that is, both have become His children, and this is why the Father definitely has to give all the children, numberwise, the fruit of their desire to meet Him. Since devotees definitely receive some temporary fruit of their devotion, you children too definitely have to attain your right as children.

Today, Baba has not come to speak a murli. All of you have come from far away and so Baba has come to fulfil His promise of celebrating a meeting. Some simply meet the Father with love, some with knowledge and some in the form of being equal. However, the Father definitely has to meet everyone. Today, Baba was seeing the speciality of all the children who have come from all directions. Firstly, Baba was looking at the speciality of Delhi. It is the place of the beginning of service and, even at the beginning, you servers found the banks of the River Jamuna in order to begin service. You went and served on the banks of the River Jamuna, did you not? The seed of service was first sown in Delhi on the banks of the River Jamuna. So the palace of the kingdom will also be by the banks of the River Jamuna. This is why, together with Gopi Vallabh, (the Father of the gopes and gopis) and the gopes and gopis, the banks of the River Jamuna are also remembered. BapDada was watching the TV of the powerful children of the establishment. So, those from Delhi have the speciality of the present time and also of the future. It is the place of the foundation of service and also the foundation of the kingdom. You residents of the place of the foundation are so powerful, are you not? Those from Delhi have the responsibility of remaining constantly powerful. You instrument souls who are residents of Delhi constantly have this crown of responsibility, do you not? You don't sometimes take the crown off, do you? To be a resident of Delhi means to be one who constantly wears a crown of responsibility. Do you understand the speciality of being a resident of Delhi? Constantly put this speciality into practice. Achcha.

The other long-lost and now-found children are those from Karnataka. They perform very good plays of devotion and love. On the one hand, there is deep devotion (faith) and they are very, very loving souls. On the other hand, in terms of the world, well-known, educated souls are also in Karnataka. So, there are both, those with loving feelings and also those with a position. Therefore, the sound can spread from Karnataka. The land is one that makes a loud sound because, even though those souls are VIPs , because that land is one of love and faith, they are humble, and so they can easily become the means. The land of Karnataka is instrumental in this special task. Simply always keep your speciality of love and humility with you in service. Never let go of this speciality, whatever the atmosphere. These two are the oars of the boat of Karnataka. Keep both of these together all the time, not one ahead and the other one behind. Then the boat of service will show the success of the speciality of this land. The balance of the two will glorify your name. Achcha.

To those who constantly make themselves the form of the essence, that is, the form of the fruit, to those who remain constantly stable in the stage of the essence and who also enable others to become stable in the stage of the essence, to the constantly powerful souls, to the powerful servers who are embodiments of powerful remembrance, to such elevated souls who celebrate a meeting in the form of being equal, BapDada's love, remembrance and namaste.

BapDada meeting groups:

1) Do you constantly experience yourself to have a right to the Father’s inheritance? To have a right means to be a powerful soul, act with this understanding. No type of weakness still remains, does it? Constantly continue to make yourself move forward with the awareness, “As is the Father, so am I; the Father is the Almighty Authority and so the children are master almighty authorities. Always have this happiness, because for the rest of the cycle you will not have the happiness that you have now. Now, you have attainment from the Father whereas later, souls will have attainments from souls. The attainment that you receive from the Father cannot be received from souls. Souls are not all-knowing and so, any attainment from souls is temporary whereas from the Father you receive imperishable attainment for all time. You have now received imperishable happiness from the Father. You constantly continue dance in happiness, do you not? Constantly continue to swing in the swing of happiness. As soon as you come down, you become dirty because there is dirt on the ground. If you are always on the swings, you are always clean and, without becoming clean, you cannot have a meeting with the Father. Just as the Father is clean, so the method to meet Him is to become clean. So, those who constantly stay on the swings are those who are constantly clean. Since you have the swing, why do you come down? Eat, drink, walk, do everything on the swing; it is such a big swing. The days for coming down are over, now are the days to swing. So, you are the elevated souls who constantly swing with the Father on the swings of happiness, love, knowledge and bliss; always remember this. Always remember this. Whenever any situation arises, remember this blessing and, on the basis of this blessing, you will once again experience the company and the swinging. This blessing is a means of constant safety . To remember the blessing means to remember the Bestower of Blessings. There is no effort required when you have a blessing. You easily have all attainments.

2) Do all of you experience yourselves to be elevated and fortunate souls? The biggest fortune is that the Bestower of Fortune now belongs to you. Let there always be the happiness and intoxication of this elevated fortune. This is spiritual intoxication that can stay all the time. If perishable intoxication stays all the time, there is damage. Those who stay in this spiritual intoxication will automatically have forgotten the attractions of this old world. They neither remember their old bodies nor their old relationships of the body; they easily forget these. They don’t have to make effort to forget. They would even have forgotten body consciousness. They would be soul conscious. The constantly soul-conscious stage is the perfect and complete stage. Therefore, always maintain the awareness that you are fortunate souls. Some have ordinary fortune and others have elevated fortune. Always remember the word “elevated”. I am an elevated soul, I belong to the elevated Father and I am a soul with an elevated fortune. Let this blessing be always with you. When you become an elevated soul and your time, thoughts, attitude and actions become elevated, then, seeing you, many souls will have the pure desire to become elevated. Service will be accomplished through this.

At the time of taking leave: Everyone says good morning, but your morning is with God, and so it is a Godly morning. You spent the night with God and you are now celebrating with God in the morning. Therefore, always remember both God and good. The remembrance of God makes you good. If there isn’t God’s remembrance you cannot become good. All of you constantly have a Godly life, and this is why your every second and every thought are good. So, it isn’t just good morning, good evening and good night, but your every thought and every second are good because of the remembrance of God. Do you have this experience? Now, your life itself is good because your life is with God. You perform every action with the Father, do you not? You don’t do anything alone, do you? You eat with the Father, or do you eat alone? Always remember the relationship between God and good and bring this into your life. Do you understand? Achcha. Special immortal love, remembrance and amrit vela namaste to everyone from BapDada.

Question: Which bondage do you have to become free from in order to become an angel?

Answer: Be free from the bondages of the mind. Waste thoughts in your mind will not allow you to become an angel. This is why an angel means one who has no relationship with waste thoughts in the mind. Always remember that you angels will never be tied in any bondages. Achcha.
