"Purity is the foundation of happiness, peace and joy."

Today, BapDada is looking at all His children from everywhere who have holiness and happiness . At no other time in this whole drama, can there be a gathering of so many children, of such a large number who have the speciality of being both holy and happy . Nowadays, people are given the title of ‘His Holiness’ or ‘His Highness’ , but if you look at the practical proof of that, that purity and greatness are not visible. BapDada was looking to see where else a gathering of such great and pure souls could take place. Every child has the determined thought to become pure, not just in their actions, but definitely to become pure in all three: thoughts, words and deeds. Nowhere else can anyone have this elevated and determined thought to become pure. Nowhere else can it be everlasting; nowhere else can it be easy. However, all of you consider it very easy to imbibe purity. This is because you have received knowledge from BapDada and, with the power of knowledge, you have recognised that the original and eternal form of “I, the soul” is pure. Because you have become aware of your original and eternal form, this awareness makes you powerful and enables you to experience everything to be easy. You now know that your real form is, in fact, of purity. The form of the influence of bad company is of impurity. Therefore, it has become easy to adopt the reality.

You have received knowledge of your original religion, your original home, your Father and, your original form and actions. So, because you have the power of knowledge , that difficult thing has become extremely easy. Even those souls of today, who are called great souls, consider that thing to be impossible and unnatural , whereas you pure souls have experienced that impossibility to be so easy. Is it easy or difficult to adopt purity? You can issue a challenge to the whole world that purity is your original form. Because of the power of purity, where there is purity, there is automatically peace and happiness. Purity is the foundation . Purity is said to be the mother of peace and happiness, its children. So, where there is purity, there is automatically peace and happiness. That is why you are also happy . You can never be unhappy. You are those who remain constantly happy. When you are holy, you are also definitely happy . The sign of pure souls is that they are always happy. So, BapDada was seeing how many pure souls, whose intellects have faith are sitting here. People of the world are running around for peace and happiness, but the foundation of peace and happiness is purity. Because they don’t know about that foundation, because the foundation of purity is not strong, they only attain temporary peace and happiness; they have it one moment and not the next. Without purity, it is impossible to attain permanent peace or happiness. All of you have adopted the foundation . This is why you don’t have to run around for peace and happiness. Peace and happiness themselves automatically come to pure souls, just as children automatically go to their mother. No matter how much you try to separate them, they will still go to their mother. So, the mother of peace and happiness is purity. Where there is purity, there is automatically peace, happiness and joy. So, what have you become? Emperors of the land without sorrow. You are not emperors of this old world, but emperors of the land without sorrow. This Brahmin family is without any sorrow, that is, it is a world of happiness. So, you have become emperors of this world of happiness, emperors of the land without sorrow. You are also “His Holiness” , are you not? Each of you has a crown and also a throne. What more is lacking? It is such a beautiful crown. The crown of light is a symbol of purity and you are seated on BapDada’s heart-throne. So, the crowns of the emperors of the land without sorrow are unique and your throne is also unique. Your sovereignty is unique and you emperors are also unique.

Seeing all human souls running around so much nowadays, BapDada feels mercy for those children. They continue to make so much effort. Effort means running around; they make a lot of effort, but with what attainment? There will be happiness, but with happiness they will also have received sorrow from something or other. If nothing else, then, together with temporary happiness, there will also be two other things – worry and fear. So, where there is worry, there cannot be restfulness. Where there is fear, there cannot be peace. So, together with happiness, there are also those causes of sorrow and peacelessness, whereas all of you have found the solution to the causes of sorrow. You have now become embodiments of solutions, who find solutions to all problems. Problems come as toys to play with you. They come to play with you and not to make you afraid. You are not those who become afraid, are you? Where you have the treasure of all powers as your birthright, what could be lacking? You are full, are you not? There are no problems in front of someone who is a master almighty authority. If an ant is trampled under the foot of an elephant would it be noticed? So, those problems are also like ants in front of you maharathis. By considering everything to be a game, you will remain happy. Then, no matter how big a situation is, it will become small. What game are children made to play with their intellects nowadays? If you were to ask children to do arithmetic, they would get fed up, but they would very happily do their maths as a game. So, for all of you too, problems are like ants, are they not? Where there are the powers of purity, peace and happiness, there cannot be any waves of sorrow or peacelessness even in your dreams. Sorrow and peacelessness do not have the courage to come in front of powerful souls. Pure souls are souls who remain constantly cheerful. Always keep this in your awareness. You have now moved away from the many types of webs of confusion, stumbling, sorrow and peacelessness, because there isn’t the sorrow of even one thing. Even one sorrow brings along all its progeny. However, you have moved away from those webs. You consider yourselves to be so fortunate, do you not?

Today, those from Australia are sitting here. BapDada always speaks of the specialities of those from Australia – for their tapasya and attitude of being great donors. The tapasya of deep love for constantly serving continues to give fruit to you tapaswi souls and many other souls. Seeing the method and expansion according to the land, BapDada is extra pleased. Australia is extra-ordinary anyway. Everyone there very quickly develops the attitude of renunciation for the sake of doing service. This is why so many centres have been opened. There is the thought: Just as we have received fortune, we now have to create fortune for others. To have a determined thought is tapasya. So, with the method of renunciation and tapasya, you are progressing. The motive of doing service finishes many different, limited feelings. Renunciation and tapasya have been the basis for success. Do you understand? You have the power of the gathering. One says something and the other one did it. It is not that one says something and the other one says that it is not possible. A gathering would become split through that. One says something and the other one becomes co-operative with enthusiasm and puts it into a practical form. That is the power of the gathering. There is also a good gathering of Pandavas. They never get involved in “you or I”. They simply say, “Baba, Baba”, and situations finish. Conflict only arises when you get caught up in “you or I” or in “mine and yours”. When you keep the Father in front of you, no obstacles can come in front of you. You are the souls who constantly experience being free from obstacles and who experience the stage of flying at a fast speed. The stage of being free from obstacles over a long period of time is a strong stage. Those who are repeatedly influenced by obstacles weaken their foundation . Souls who remain free from obstacles over a long period of time are themselves powerful and they also make others powerful, because they have a strong foundation . When anything that has been broken is glued back together, it becomes weak. Souls who have been powerful and free from obstacles over a long period of time also become free from obstacles at the end and pass with honours and go into the first division . So, constantly, definitely aim to experience the stage of being free from obstacles over a long period of time. Do not think that, even though an obstacle came, you were able to finish it and that it therefore does not matter. By repeatedly having to finish obstacles when they come, your time and energy are wasted . If you use that time and energy for doing service, you will accumulate multimillionfold return of one. This is why souls who have been free from obstacles over a long period of time are worshipped as destroyers of obstacles. The title of being a destroyer of obstacles belongs to worthy of worship souls. “I am a worthy of worship soul who is a destroyer of obstacles.” By having this awareness, you will constantly remain free from obstacles and continue to fly in the flying stage and also make others fly. Do you understand? You have destroyed your own obstacles, but you also have to be a destroyer of obstacles for others. Look, you have found such an instrument soul (Dr. Nirmala) who, from the beginning, has never faced an obstacle. She has always been loving and detached. She does remain a little strict , but this is also essential. If you did not have such a strict teacher , there would not have been such expansion. This is also essential. Just as bitter medicine is necessary for curing an illness, in the same way, according to the drama, you are definitely coloured by the colour of the instrument souls. Just as she became an instrument for service as soon as she came, so too, as soon as souls go to Australia, they become instruments for the service of opening centres. Expansion is brought about over all of Australia and the places in connection with it with these vibrations of the feeling of renunciation. Those who have tapasya and renunciation are elevated souls. All of you souls are fast effort-makers but although you are effort-makers, specialities too definitely cast their influence. Everyone is at this time becoming complete. No one has as yet received the certificate of having become complete. However, you have come close to perfection. It is numberwise. Some have come very close and others are ahead or behind, numberwise. Those from Australia are lucky . The seed of renunciation is enabling you to attain your fortune. The Shakti Army is very much loved by BapDada, because you have courage. Where there is courage, help from BapDada is constantly with you. You are those who constantly remain content, are you not? Contentment is the basis of success. All of you are contented souls and so success is your birthright. Do you understand? Those from Australia are nearest and dearest and this is why there is an extra right over them. Achcha.
