"The two pure desires of Brahma, the mother and father, for his Brahmin children."

Today, BapDada, the One who fulfils all the desires of all the souls of the world, is seeing the spiritual lamps of His hopes. Just as the Father is the One who fulfils all the pure hopes of everyone, similarly, the children are the ones who fulfil the Father’s pure hopes. The Father fulfils the desires of the children and the children fulfil the Father’s hopes. You do know what pure hopes the Father has for you children, do you not? Every Brahmin soul is a lamp of the Father’s hopes. A lamp means a constantly ignited light. A lamp that is always alight is lovely. How would it seem if the lamp was constantly flickering? BapDada is pleased to see those who fulfil all the Father’s hopes, that is, the lamps that are constantly shining.

Today, Bap and Dada were having a heart-to-heart conversation between themselves. Who remains in front of BapDada? It is the children who remain in front of Him, is it not? So, they would only be talking about the children, would they not? Father Shiva asked Father Brahma: Do you still have any pure hopes for the children? Brahma said: The children are definitely constantly engaged in fulfilling the Father’s pure hopes, numberwise, according to their power, their love and their attention . Since the Father has fulfilled all their hopes, they definitely have zeal and enthusiasm in their hearts for fulfilling all the Father’s hopes. However, they become numberwise in showing that. There is a difference between thinking about something and demonstrating it practically. There are some children for whom thinking about something and doing it practically are the same, but not all are like that. When you bring into your awareness the Father’s love and the attainments you have received from the Father, what the Father has made you and what He has given you, then, because of being an embodiment of love, you fly with a lot of zeal and enthusiasm for doing yourself what the Father has asked you to do. However, when you have to serve or make connections in a gathering, that is, when you have to act and do something practically , then, in some cases, your thoughts and actions become the same, that is, there is that same zeal and enthusiasm, whereas at other times, at the time of having to act, the sanskars of the gathering or the paper of circumstances that comes through Maya and the elements sometimes make you feel that things are difficult. So, because of those circumstances and sanskars, the thoughts of zeal and enthusiasm you have with love are different from you actually doing something. You then think: If it weren’t like this, it would be very good. You then become caught up in the spinning of “if” and “but”. “It should have happened like this but, instead, it happened like that and that is why this happened.” You get caught up in this spinning of “if” and “but”. This is why your thoughts filled with zeal and enthusiasm are different from your doing it practically .

Father Brahma especially spoke about the two hopes he has for the children because Father Brahma has to take you with him and also remain with you. Father Shiva is the One who will take you back with Him, but He will not be with you in the kingdom or throughout the cycle. That one (Brahma) will always be with you and the other One (Shiva) will always be the Observer watching as the detached observer. There is a difference. Father Brahma always has the pure emerged hope to make the children equal to himself. In fact, both Bap and Dada are responsible but, nevertheless, Brahma is the creator in the corporeal form and, therefore, the corporeal creator naturally loves the corporeal creation. You were told earlier too that children belong to both the mother and father, but it is still the mother who has special love for the children because it is the mother who becomes an instrument to give sustenance. It is the mother who is the instrument to make the children equal to the father. This is why the mother’s love has been remembered. This is pure, motherly love, not filled with attachment or vice. Where there is attachment, there is distress, but where there is spiritual, motherly love or just love, then the mother has that pride in the children and won’t get distressed. So, whether you call Brahma the mother or the father, what special hopes does he have of the children, in both forms? One hope is in relation to the Father and the other is a pure hope in relation to the Brahmin family. The pure hope he has in relation to the Father is: Just as BapDada is the detached Observer and also the Companion, similarly, he wants each of you to become equal to BapDada in the same way, and be a detached observer and a companion and become a great soul by always playing both parts according to the time. So, the pure hope of the father is for you to become a detached observer and a companion like BapDada.

Both Bap and Dada are completely content with one thing about the children. What is that? Every child has very good love for BapDada. Their love for BapDada never breaks and, because of love, whether they are powerful or only according to their capacity, they are moving along. They are definitely threaded in the thread of love as beads that are Brahmin souls. The thread of love is strong and they cannot be broken away from that. The garland of love is big whereas the rosary of victory is small. Children are surrendered to BapDada because of His love for them. No matter how much someone may try to separate you from the Father’s love, you are still so surrendered to Him by love that you cannot be separated. The words “My Baba” emerge from everyone’s lips and their hearts with love. So, He is content with you children in the garland of love. However, in being powerful like the Father and free from the spinning of “if” and “but”, instead of being constantly powerful, you are according to capacity. It is in this that BapDada has the pure hope that all of you children become constantly powerful like the Father. Where you have to be a detached observer, you sometimes become a companion and where you have to be a companion, you become a detached observer. To be able to fulfil the responsibility in both forms according to the time what it is to be equal to the Father. The garland of love is ready, but BapDada has the pure hope that a similar big rosary of victory should also become ready. Apart from the108, BapDada is giving you full freedom: the rosary of victory can be as long as however many want to be victorious. Do not limit yourselves to 108. Do not think: There are only 108, and we cannot enter that. It is not like that. You can become that.

In order to become victorious, you need one type of balance . You constantly hear about the balance of remembrance and service, but why isn’t there that balance of remembrance and service when you want it? Even though you do understand this, why is it not put into practice? For this, you need one other type of balance , and that balance is the one other hope of Father Brahma. One hope is to become equal to the Father. The second hope is for the family - that there are always good wishes and pure feelings for every Brahmin soul in practice. It shouldn’t just be in thoughts or just a desire, “I want to do that..” Many say: I want to have good feelings, but in practice it is different. You were also told about this in detail earlier. What is the reason for not constantly having good wishes and pure feelings for the family? You have love for the Father in your heart, and the sign of that love in your heart is that that love cannot break, no matter how much of a misunderstanding someone may try to create in you about the Father, or whatever someone may say to you about Him. When the Father in the corporeal form gave a signal or teachings to make you move forward, because of love, the teachings or signal for transformation did not create a misunderstanding . There was always and there will always be the feeling that there is benefit in whatever Baba says. There has never been a lack of love. Instead, they considered themselves to be even closer to the Father’s heart and felt that this is the love of belonging. This is called the deep love of the heart that transforms feelings. The sign of love for the Father was that the Father said something and you always said “Ha ji”. Similarly, let there constantly be the same love in your heart for the Brahmin family. Use this method to change your feelings. Then balance between your love for the Father and the family will automatically reveal practically the balance of remembrance and service. So, the scale of love for the Father is heavy, whereas the scale of love for the whole Brahmin family keeps fluctuating. It is sometimes heavy and sometimes light; it is heavier for some and lighter for others. For you to have a balance of love for the Father and love for the children is Father Brahma’s second hope. Do you understand? Become equal to the Father in this.

Love is so great that, whether you did something or someone else did something, the same happiness is experienced in both situations. When BapDada became the instrument for the task of establishment, He made the children companions in service. Then, even if the children did and continued to do more service in a practical way than the Father, BapDada was still happy seeing the children move forward because of that love. Because of the love in His heart, there could never have been the thought: Why should the children go ahead in service when I am the instrument? It was I who made them instruments. There was never this feeling even in his dreams. This is called true love, altruistic love, spiritual love. He was always happy keeping the children as instruments at the front. Whether the children did something or the father did it, he never had any consciousness of “I”. There was never the feeling, “This is my task, my duty , my right, my intellect, my plan ”. Love finishes that consciousness of “mine”. Whatever you did, I did, and whatever I did, you also did. These pure feelings and good wishes are called love in the heart. Where there is love, you never feel “This is mine” or “This doesn’t belong to me.” Where there is love, then, no matter how ordinary the words are that are spoken, or with whatever right they are spoken, you don’t feel them to be like that. You would never feel , “Why did this one say this?” A soul who has love for another will never assume anything about the one he loves: “It would be like this, it would be like that.” Because of constantly having faith in the one you love, even something said lightly to you would feel as though that one has said something with a purpose. You would not feel that to be useless or wasteful. Where there is love, there will definitely be faith . If there isn’t love, there won’t be faith . So, to have faith and love for the Brahmin family is said to be fulfilling Father Brahma’s second desire. Just as BapDada gave you the certificate of loving the Father, similarly, you also have to claim the certificate of acting in a practical way with the same definition of love for the Brahmin family as you were told. There has to be this balance . Because of not having a balance of loving the children as much as the Father, when you move forward in service, you yourself say, “There is Maya in service”, and, sometimes, seeing the atmosphere, you even say, “It is better to stay in remembrance than to do such service. Free us from all types of service and let us just sit in a bhatthi.” You people have this thought, from time to time.

In fact, service is something that makes you a conqueror of Maya, not something that brings Maya. So, why is there Maya in service? The main reason for this is that there isn’t love in the heart; there is love that is dependent on the family. However, love in the heart creates a feeling of renunciation and, because you do not have that, service sometimes takes on the form of Maya. Therefore, such service cannot be accumulated in the account of service, even if someone becomes an instrument for 50 to 60 centres opening. However, only as much is accumulated in your account of service and in BapDada’s heart as you have done while being free from Maya and remaining yogyukt. Someone may have just two centres . She may be in charge of only two centres , whereas another person is seen to be in charge of 50 centres , but, if even the two centres are free from obstacles and free from Maya, from any upheaval or conflict of nature and sanskars, then much more is accumulated in the account of service of the one who has two centres than the one who has 50 centres. Do not be happy thinking that you have 30 or 40 centres . How many of those centres are free from Maya? When you continue to accumulate centres as well as Maya, then such service is not accumulated in the Father’s register of service. You might think that you are doing a lot of service that, and you don’t sleep during the day or even at night, that you only prepare food once and eat that at night because you are so busy . However, along with doing service, you are not busy with Maya, are you? “What happened? How did this happen? Why did this one do this? Why did I not do this? This is my right or your right.” What happened to the Father’s rights? Do you understand? Service means that in which you are practically able to see the fruit of your co-operation and contentment and everyone else’s. If you are unable to attain everyone’s good wishes and pure feelings as the fruit of co-operation and contentment in a visible way, then check what the reason is for that. Why did you not receive that fruit? Check the method and change it.

To increase such true service is to increase service. Do not just please your heart thinking that you are doing very good service. Please the Father’s heart and claim blessings from the hearts of the Brahmin family. This is called doing true service. Superficial service is very big, but where there is service from the heart, there will definitely be service with love in your heart. This is called fulfilling Father Brahma’s hope for the family. This was today’s heart-to-heart conversation. You will be told more later. Today, it is the last chance for the children from Bharat for this season . This is why Baba told you what BapDada wants. You have claimed one pass certificate and you now have to claim the other certificate . Achcha. Now, constantly remain the shining lamps of BapDada’s hopes. Achcha.

To all the lamps from everywhere who are the decoration of the Brahmin clan and who always fulfil BapDada’s pure hopes, to those who always keep in their hearts a balance of love for the Father and the family, to those who accumulate more in their account of service by serving from their hearts, to the lamps of the Father’s pure hopes, to the servers who serve with an honest heart, love, remembrance and namaste from BapDada.

BapDada meeting groups:

1) Do you always consider yourselves to be the victorious Pandavas of the previous cycle? Whenever you see the memorial images of the Pandavas, do you feel that those are your memorials? Pandavas means those who are always strong, and this is why the bodies of the Pandavas are shown as tall and broad; they are never shown to be weak. The souls are courageous and powerful, but they have instead shown the bodies to be strong. The victory of the Pandavas is well known. Even though there were countless Kauravas, they were defeated, whereas the Pandavas were only five, but they won. Why did they win? Because the Father was with the Pandavas, the Pandavas were strong. They had spiritual power which was why the power of the unlimited Kauravas was nothing in front of them. You are like this, are you not? Anyone who comes in front of you, no matter in what form Maya comes in front of you, they would go away defeated; they would not be able to conquer you. This is known as victorious Pandavas. You mothers are also in the Pandava Army, are you not? Or, are you those who stay at home? Those who are weak hide away in their homes, but those who are courageous go onto the battlefield. So, where do you stay: on the battlefield or at home? So, constantly continue to move forward with the intoxication that you are the victorious Pandavas of the Pandava Army.

2) Do you consider yourselves to be unlimited instrument servers? Unlimited servers means those who do not come into any limitations of “I” or “mine”. In the unlimited, there is neither “I”, nor “mine”. Everything belongs to the Father, I belong to the Father and the service is also of the Father. This is called doing unlimited service. Are you such unlimited servers or do you come into the limited? Unlimited servers receive the unlimited kingdom. Always have the awareness of the unlimited Father, unlimited service and the unlimited fortune of the kingdom and you will stay happy. Happiness disappears in anything limited, whereas there is always happiness in the unlimited. Achcha.

At the time of farewell:

You have now made very good plans for doing service. In fact, doing service is also a means of making progress. If you do service in the form of service, service gives you a lift to make you progress. Simply make plans with plain intellects and do not mix anything into them, even slightly, from here or there. For example, if you made something very good and then just left it lying around so that some rubbish got into it due to the wind, what would happen then? So, you carefully look after it, do you not, so that anything from here or there does not get mixed into it. In the same way, you make good plans for service. The hard work in doing service does not feel like hard work; you have happiness, because you do it with love and you also have very good zeal and enthusiasm. BapDada is pleased to see the zeal and enthusiasm. Simply do not allow anything to get mixed into it , then, however long that service has taken, you can do four times as much. A plain intellect will reveal service that is of a fast speed. At the moment, you still have to think: Shall we do this or should we not do this? Perhaps this will happen or that will happen. However, if everyone has the same intellect, whoever did it, that was good and whatever they did was good. When you make this lesson firm, service at a fast speed will then begin. In fact, the speed of service is now faster than before; it is increasing and you are achieving success. However, in terms of the need of the present time, in terms of giving the message to all souls of the world, you have only just come round the corner. There are five and a half billion souls, and perhaps one or two hundred thousand (one or two crore) souls would have received the message. So, how many more are still left? Yes, those who are close to the kingdom have already come, but all are needed. The inheritance has to be given to everyone, whether of liberation or liberation-in-life. Everyone has to be given it. Not a single child of the Father must be deprived. No matter how, each one has to claim a right to the Father’s inheritance. No matter in what way they hear the Father’s message, a fast speed is needed for that. That time is also coming. It will continue to happen.

Now, those of all religions are gradually being moulded in their own way. Earlier, they used to be very strict, whereas they are now moulding themselves. Whether they are Christians or Muslims, internally, they give regard to the philosophy of Bharat because there are all types of entertainment in the philosophy of Bharat. It is not like that in other religions. The way that the philosophy of Bharat has been shown through stories and drama is not like those of any other religions. This is why those who have been very strict also understand internally that the philosophy of Bharat, and within that, its original, eternal philosophy is no less. The day will also come when everyone will say, “If there is any philosophy , it is of the original, eternal religion.” People get upset with the word “Hindu”, but they will give regard to the original, eternal religion. God is one, and so there is only one religion. The religion of all of us is one and they will gradually be attracted to the religion of souls. Achcha.

Question: What is the easy way to be a constantly easy yogi?

Answer: “The Father is my world.” Have this awareness and you will become an easy yogi, because, throughout the day, your intellect is pulled to the world. When the Father is your world, where would your intellect go? It will go to the world, it would not go into the jungle. So, since the Father is your world, you will become an easy yogi. Otherwise, you have to make effort to remove your intellect from here and connect it there. Always stay merged in the Father’s love and He cannot then be forgotten. Achcha.
