"The easy way to make your thoughts fruitful."

Today, the World Creator, the World Benefactor Father, went on a tour around the whole world, in order to look at all the special children. He saw the knowledgeable souls and also the loving and co-operative children. He saw the devotee children and also the children who have no knowledge. He saw all the various souls totally absorbed in their love. Some were lost in carrying out a particular task, some were absorbed in the task of breaking something, and others were absorbed in the task of repairing something, but all were definitely absorbed. The thought in everyone's mind was: Let me find something. Let me take something. Let me attain something. Each one was engaged in his own task with that aim. Although they had limited attainments, Baba saw in all directions that everyone had the same thought: Let me find something, let me become something. In the midst of this, Baba especially saw the Brahmin children. Whether in this land or abroad, Baba saw the same thought in each one: Let me now do something. Let me do something special for the unlimited task. Let me imbibe a speciality in myself and become a special soul. Baba saw such enthusiasm in the majority of children. Baba saw the practical form of the seed of zeal and enthusiasm in each one’s efforts and also the atmosphere of the time. In order to make this seed of enthusiasm constant, it has to be watered with attention again and again, and checked; that is, the way to make it grow is to continue to give it sunshine. It is in this that you become numberwise. Everyone knows how to sow seeds, but the difference arises when it comes to sustaining it and making it bear fruit.

Every day at amrit vela, BapDada sees this game or effort of love that you children make throughout the day. Each one of you has the best of all thoughts of enthusiasm for yourself and for service: “From now on, I will do this and I will do this. I will definitely do this. I will definitely do this and show everyone.” You continue to sow seeds of such elevated thoughts. In your heart-to-heart conversations with BapDada, you say very sweet things, but what happens when you sustain that thought, that is, that seed, to put it into a practical form? In one thing or another, either in the method of making it grow, or in the speciality of making it fruitful, you become numberwise according to your capacity. The easy way to make the seed of any thought fruitful is just one thing: constantly continue to fill that seed with the strength of all powers from the Father, the Seed, at all times. Through the Seed form, the seed of your thoughts will easily and automatically grow and become fruitful. However, because of not having a constant connection with the Seed, you make other souls or facilities the method for growth. Then, because of that, you take more time and effort in the expansion of, "Should I do it like this or like that? I should do it like this." You make another soul or facility your support. Instead of it receiving water and sunshine from the Ocean and the Sun, you water it with all the other facilities and give it the sakaash of considering souls to be your support. Therefore, the seed cannot become fruitful. This is why, even after making effort, even after giving your time, your enthusiasm decreases as you move along, when there isn't the attainment of visible fruit and you become disheartened with yourself, with your companions and with service. The waves of sometimes happiness and sometimes sadness make the boat of Brahmin life sometimes rock and sometimes move along well. This is the condition of the lives of some of you children nowadays. You are moving along, you are carrying out a task, but you are not experiencing what you should and, therefore, although there is happiness, you are not dancing in happiness. You are moving along but not at a fast speed. You are content that you have become those who have an elevated life, that you now belong to the Father, that you are now servers and have moved away from the world of sorrow and suffering. However, in the midst of contentment, even against your conscious wish and without your understanding why it happens, waves of discontentment emerge. This is because, although knowledge is easy, and remembrance is easy, it is sometimes easy and sometimes difficult to be loving and detached in your relationships and connections and to fulfil that responsibility.

The Brahmin family and the household of service are called relationships and connections. It is in this that you don't experience what you should in some way or another. This is why there are both types of wave. Now, because of the closeness of time, this speed of effort will not enable you to reach your final destination according to the time. It is now time to become a destroyer of obstacles and to enable unhappy souls to experience happiness and comfort in the midst of the obstacles of the world. Only someone who has had the stage of a destroyer of obstacles over a long period of time is able to carry out the task of destroying obstacles. If you are even now still busy ending the obstacles that have come in your life and you are using your energy for that, how would you be able to become an instrument to give power to others? Become free from obstacles and accumulate a stock of powers, for only then will you become an embodiment of power and be able to carry out the task of a destroyer of obstacles. Do you understand?

Baba saw two things especially. The children in Bharat who don't have knowledge are busy taking a seat or in helping someone else to take a seat . Day and night, and even in their dreams, they only see the seat , whereas Brahmin children are engaged in setting themselves. You have received the seat , but you are setting yourselves. Abroad, they are engaged in finding a method to protect themselves from the destructive force that they themselves have created. The life of the majority is not a life, but a question mark . Those without knowledge are searching for their protection whereas the knowledgeable children are engaged in hoisting the flag of revelation. The condition of the people of the world is: “Now, save us from this distress!” Give souls who are wandering around in many types of distress the destination of peace. Achcha.

To those who are always set on their seat of the stage of perfection, to those who are destroyers of obstacles of the self and the world, to those who make every seed of elevated thought fruitful by having a relationship with the Father, the Seed, and who eat the practical fruit of that, to the children who always remain content and are jewels of contentment, BapDada's love, remembrance and namaste.

BapDada meeting the kumaris of the Hostel :

1. You are always happy seeing your fortune, are you not? You have been saved from taking the wrong path. Instead of experiencing loss, you have made your life one in which you earn. In worldly life, without knowledge, there is nothing but loss, whereas in gyani life, there is nothing but earning at every second . All Brahmins are fortunate anyway, but kumaris are doubly fortunate. To become a Brahma Kumari in a kumari life, to become a Brahmin, is very great. It is not a small thing; it is a very big thing. Do you have the intoxication of what you have become? From being an ordinary kumari, you have become a Shakti form. You are the Shaktis who destroy Maya, are you not? You are not those who are afraid of Maya, but those who destroy Maya. You are not weak, you are courageous. You aren't afraid of small things, are you? If you always remember your elevated attainment, those small things will seem like nothing. Now, have you made a deal for your whole life or only for the time that you are in the hostel ? By having this understanding, none of you can ever go from an elevated life into an ordinary life. If you ask a millionaire to become poor, would he become that? If someone becomes that due to his circumstances , they don’t like it. So, this life is one of having self-sovereignty. You cannot go from this into an ordinary life. So, having become sensible, are you experiencing everything or are you moving along with one another's company? Have you decided with your own intellect? You have created this life with the judgement of your own conscience, have you not? Or, have you just come along because your parents asked you to? Achcha.

2. Did you kumaris offer yourselves? Will you go on service wherever you are sent? Have you made a firm deal or a weak deal? If it is a firm deal, then are you ready to sit wherever you are made to sit? If you have any bondage, then it is not a true deal. If you yourselves are ready, no one can stop you. A goat can be bound and kept anywhere, but no one can bind a lion. So how can a lioness be bound to anyone? They are free even when they are living in a jungle . So, who are you? Lionesses. A lioness means one who comes onto the field. When you have one faith and one strength, then, when you children have courage, the Father helps. No matter how strong a bond may be, on the basis of courage, even that strong bond can be easily broken. For instance, it is shown that the locks on the jail were opened; similarly, your bonds will also break. Therefore, become like that. If there is the slightest bond, burn it with the fire of yoga. When it is burnt, no name or trace of it will remain. By breaking it, it can still be tied again with a knot. Therefore, don't break it, but burn it and you will become free for all time. Achcha.
