"The way to become a carefree emperor"

Today, BapDada is seeing the gathering of carefree emperors. In the entire cycle this royal gathering is unique. There have been many emperors, but it is only at this confluence age that there is a unique gathering of carefree emperors. This gathering of carefree emperors is even more elevated than a royal gathering of the golden age, because there they have no knowledge of the difference between worry (fikar) and intoxication (fakhoor) in their awareness. They do not even know the word “worry”. But now the whole world is worried about one thing or another. From the moment they wake up, they have some worry or other about themselves, their family, their business, their friends and relatives etc., whereas all of you begin the day at amrit vela by becoming carefree emperors and you carry out every task as carefree emperors. You sleep comfortably as carefree emperors. You have a peaceful and blissful sleep. You have become such carefree emperors. Has each one of you become like that - or do you still have some worries? You gave your responsibilities to the Father and so you became carefree. By considering yourself responsible, you have worries. “The responsibility is the Father's and I am an instrument server. I am an instrument karma yogi. The Father is Karankaravanhar and I am the instrument doing it” If you have this natural awareness at every moment, you are a constantly carefree emperor. If, even by mistake, you take upon yourself the burden of any waste, then, instead of a crown, many baskets of worries come on your head. Otherwise, you are a carefree emperor and constantly wearing a crown of light . “There is just the Father and I and no third person” – this experience easily makes you into a carefree emperor. So, are you those wearing a crowns or those carrying baskets? There is such a big difference between carrying a basket and wearing a crown. Stand someone wearing a crown in front of you and stand another person carrying a basket of burdens on his head in front of you – which one would you prefer? The crown or the basket? The Father comes and relieves you of the many baskets of burdens of many births and makes you light. So, a carefree emperor means one who always remains double light . Also, until you become an emperor, your physical organs cannot remain under your control. It is only when you become an emperor that you become a conqueror of Maya, a conqueror of your physical organs and a conqueror of matter. So, you are sitting in the royal gathering, are you not? Achcha.

Today, it is the turn of Europe. Europe has expanded well. Europe has made very good plans for the benefit of their neighbouring countries. Just as the Father is always benevolent, in the same way, children, like their Father, also have those benevolent feelings. Now, whenever you see anyone, you have mercy for them, do you not, that that one should also belong to the Father? Look, from the time of establishment, BapDada has been remembering all the children from abroad in one form or another, and through that remembrance of BapDada, when the time came, all the children from everywhere reached here. However, BapDada has been invoking you for a long time. Because of that invocation, all of you have been attracted, as if by a magnet, and come here. You feel, do you not, that you don't know how you came to belong to Baba? Of course, it is good that you have come to belong to Him, but just sit and think sometimes about what happened and how it happened and how you arrived where you are and from where you came. Then, by thinking about it, you will find it amazing. It was fixed in the drama . What was fixed in the drama brought all of you from all corners and made you come to the one family. Now, because you feel that this is your family, you find it very lovely. The Father is the loveliest of all, and so all of you have also become lovely. You too are no less. All of you have also become extremely lovely by being coloured by the colour of BapDada's company. Whoever you look at, each one is lovelier than the next. The influence of spirituality is visible on each one's face. Foreigners like to put on make-up . So, this is the place where you put on the make - up of an angel. This make-up is such that you become angels. After putting on make-up , no matter what they were like prior to that, they appear to have changed. With make-up , they look very beautiful. So, here, too, all of you appear to be sparkling stars, because you have put on spiritual make-up . That make-up can be harmful , but there is no harm in this. So, all of you are sparkling souls, loved by all. Here, there is nothing but love. When you wake up, you say, “G ood morning” , with love. When you eat, you eat Brahma bhojan with love. When you walk, you walk hand-in-hand with the Father. Foreigners like to walk hand-in-hand, do they not? So, BapDada also says: Always walk with your hand in the Father's hand. Do not walk alone. If you walk alone, you will sometimes get bored and, sometimes, someone's vision will fall on you. If you walk with the Father, then firstly, Maya's vision will never be cast on you, and secondly, because of having His company, you would always eat and do everything as you move along in pleasure. So, all of you like your Companion, do you not? Or, do you want someone else? There isn't a need for any other companion , is there? Do you sometimes need someone else to entertain your heart a little? You have become free from the relationships that deceive you. There is deception and also sorrow in those. You have now come into a relationship where there is no deception or sorrow. You have been saved from that. You have been saved from that for all time. Are all of you such strong ones? None of you are weak, are you? It isn't that you would go back there and write a letter saying, "What can I do? How can I manage? Maya has come."

What special wonder have those from Europe performed? BapDada sees that everyone has always paid very good attention to putting into practice whatever the Father has said about bringing a bouquet here every year. You have always had that enthusiasm - and you also have it now - that every year, new children who had been separated from the Father should come to their home and to their family. So BapDada was seeing that Europe has kept this aim and brought about good expansion. So, you are called obedient children who fulfil the Father's elevated versions and His instructions, and the children who are obedient always have the Father’s special blessings on them. Obedient children are automatically worthy of receiving blessings. Do you understand? A few years ago, there were so few but, with expansion every year, this has become the largest of all families. So, from one, there were two and from two, there were three, and now, how many centres are there? The UK is separate and large anyway, and everyone's connection is with the UK, because that is the foundation of the foreign lands. No matter how many branches emerge and how much the tree continues to grow, its connection remains with the foundation . If there is no connection with the foundation , how can there be further growth? The especially loved jewels in London have been made instruments because that is the foundation . So, because of everyone's connection , and through easily receiving directions , your efforts and service have both become easy. BapDada is always with you anyway. You cannot move without BapDada for even a second; you are combined to that extent. Nevertheless, in the corporeal form, in the facilities of service, in the plans and programmes for service and also in your self-progress, if anyone wants any directions , you have kept that connection . This medium has also been created through which you can easily receive a solution. Sometimes, such storms of Maya come that you are unable to catch BapDada's directions and His power, because your intellect is not clear . For such a time , the corporeal mediums whom you call Didis and Dadis have been made instruments. They are instruments, so that your time is not wasted . However, BapDada knows that you have courage. You have emerged there and become instruments for service there, and so you have made the lesson of "Charity begins at home" firm . It is very good to get souls there to become instruments and bring about expansion. You are moving along with benevolent feelings. So, where there is determination, there is definitely success. No matter what happens, you have to achieve success in service - this elevated thought has produced for you the instant fruit today. Now, when you see your elevated family, you have special happiness. It is the Pandavas especially who are teachers . Shaktis are always helpers anyway. You always receive the instant fruit of the expansion of the service done by the Pandavas. And, more than service, the sparkle and splendour of the service centres is due to the Shaktis. The Shaktis have their own parts and the Pandavas have their own parts . Therefore, both are essential. The centres where there are just Shaktis and no Pandavas are not powerful . Therefore, both are essential. All of you have now awoken, and so through all of you, others will easily awaken. It has taken time and effort, but you are now growing very well. It is impossible for determination not to be successful. You are seeing the practical proof . If you become even a little disheartened that something will never happen there, then your slightly weak thought would make that difference in service. The water of determination bears fruit quickly. It is determination that brings success.
