"Avyakt BapDada"
20 June 1988 · English
Whom has BapDada especially come to meet? Whose gathering is it today? Whilst seeing this gathering and smiling, Baba gives this gathering the title of being the special children. Those who are special children place each step in the Father's step and automatically become co-operative in every task. They do not have to become this; they do not have to think about becoming this. Because a special child is very loving, he is constantly co-operative. According to the drama, a special child easily attains the return of love in the form of the blessing of being co-operative. If you have automatically achieved this blessing, consider yourself a special child. A special child has the stage of being constantly yogyukt and yukti-yukt. To be a special child means to be the embodiment of all the virtues like the Father. A special child is one who brings all the Father's virtues into physical form. This is such a group.
Everyone will say that these souls are the responsible souls who have become instruments for service. To be the instruments for service means to be the instruments for bringing Baba's virtues into physical form. This is called service. To speak of knowledge is a common thing; that isn't special service. Special service is to become the embodiment of all of Baba's virtues and to give a vision of Baba through your own form. To speak and to listen to knowledge has been continuing since the copper age. But what is the speciality of you special souls? To become like the Father and to give the vision of Baba. You have to become this practically and also give the vision. Only special souls can do this. Any other soul cannot do this; neither the souls from the path of bhakti nor the ordinary souls who are following the path of knowledge can do this. This is the special duty of the special souls.
What is the main difference between ordinary souls and special souls? On seeing which particular aspect, would you call one soul an ordinary soul and another soul a special soul? What is the difference? Speak of some deep differences. What is the difference? On seeing the face and hearing the experience of a special soul, each soul will in a second easily experience a direct connection with the Father, whereas ordinary souls will be agents in the middle; the connection will stop at the agent and then be connected with the Father. The souls that emerge as a result of service carried out by ordinary souls will not be so powerful that they are able to easily and instantly forge a connection with the Father. Ordinary souls will be instruments to enable a link to be forged, but the souls for whom they become the instruments, will definitely find it difficult. It will take them time and effort and they will find it difficult. They will ask: What can we do? How can we do this? Is this possible or not? All these questions will arise in front of those souls. But the special souls, on the basis of their speciality and on the basis of their power, will finish the questions of how and why. These souls will not experience any effort or difficulty. From the moment they come, they will feel that they have once again found their lost family and their Father whom they had forgotten. We had forgotten our Father! They will be amazed at themselves for forgetting their Father. How could we forget our Father? We forgot such a Father! This is the main difference between ordinary souls and special souls. The ordinary souls try to enable a direct connection to be forged with the Father, but the weak souls of today need more than just their own power. They are not able to continue with just the support of the power of knowledge or the power of yoga. They need the co-operation of the powers of the instrument souls with which they can take a jump.
Day by day, the souls who come to you will have a weak stage. There is a difference visible in the power and courage of you souls of the first group that emerged, the second group that emerged and the new souls that are emerging now. There is a difference in the strength of the body and the strength of the mind of every group. Everyone has this experience, do they not? According to this, just think what the stage of the souls who come last will be. It will be very weak, will it not? Such weak souls will not be able to move forward if you simply give them knowledge, or you give them the course and make them sit in yoga. At the present time, the instrument souls have to make the weak souls move forward on the basis of the powers that they have attained. This is why you have to accumulate a stock of all the powers within yourself. Just as there is a queue for physical food, in the same way, there will be a scene in the near future in which they will come to you for power, that is, all of them will have to queue in order to receive power. For this you have to accumulate your stock beforehand. This is remembered as Draupadi's huge pots. All of you are Draupadis. To be a Draupadi means to be a mother of the yagya, one who is well known for both the pots. Firstly there shouldn't be anything lacking in the physical facilities, nor should there be anything lacking in any of the powers. The pot that is complete with all the powers can never be emptied. No matter how many come, or how long a queue there is, no-one can return still hungry. As you move forward, as nature reacts and calamities come, what will be useful in filling everyone's stomach? At that time, what will everyone hunger for? Will they be hungry for food or wealth? They will hunger for peace and happiness. They will hunger for power, because then at the time of calamities of nature, the wealth that they have will be of no use. Although they may have all the facilities, they won't be able to achieve anything through them. What will be the thought of all of them when they have no hope left to attain anything through their physical instruments and gross wealth? "Someone should give me peace." There will be many such queues. There won't be a single drop of water visible anywhere. Even the food at that time will not be worth eating because of the calamities of nature, and so what will you do then? What will you do when such tests come in front of you? Have you such courage to tolerate these tests? At that time, will you be able to have yoga or will you become thirsty? Even the wells will dry up; so what will you do then?
This is a group of special souls, and so their efforts should also be special. Do you have such power of tolerance? Why do you not believe, as is remembered, that there was fire all around the furnace and yet the kittens in the middle of the furnace were not even slightly burnt? Why do you not speak with this faith? If you are yogyukt, even though the places nearby are damaged, perhaps by a flood, the place that is instrumental for Baba will remain safe, that is, if you have not been carelessness. If there is any damage anywhere, that will be because of a lack in the judgement of your own intellect. But if there is a Maharathi at any of these places, one with a broad intellect, one who will have attained the blessings of all the powers, even a crucifix will be like a thorn, that is, that place will remain safe. No matter what the times may be like, if you have accumulated a stock of powers, those powers will definitely make nature your servant, that is, you will automatically attain all facilities. In the early days they used to write in the newspapers: Om Mandali, is the richest in the world. At the end these same words will emerge from everyone's lips. But you must also pay attention because if there is any power lacking, you will have the experience of being deceived in one way or another. This is why your effort at the moment should be on a very deep level. Did I give sorrow to anyone or not? Did I know how to handle a particular situation or not? All these are insignificant matters. The efforts at the moment of the special children should not be on this level. The present efforts should be on accumulating a stock of all the powers. A special child should not be checking in his daily chart in the ordinary way as to whether he has become angry with anyone or whether anyone is discontented with him. This gross form of checking is done by the cavalry and the infantry.
The special children should be checking on the level of the powers. To be lacking in any one power means to step out of the list of the special children. One shouldn't think that I have six out of the eight powers, that although I have two powers missing at least I have more than 50%. You shouldn't be satisfied with just that. The eight powers are the main powers, but you have to have all the powers. There shouldn't be just eight powers. There are many powers, but just so that it becomes easy to speak of them, only eight are mentioned. Not even one power should be lacking. Tests will come in front of you in the power that you are lacking: that is according to the drama. The same question will come in front of everyone. This is why you have to become completely virtuous, sixteen celestial degrees complete, master almighty authorities. If even one power is lacking you will be called powerful but not almighty authority. Special children are master almighty authority. Have you had such an exchange amongst yourselves? Did each of you relate your experience of becoming the embodiment of all the powers? Or, are you still drawing the lines of the code of conduct? Are you the ones who constantly stay within the line drawn for you or are you the ones who will draw a new line? Or, are you re-drawing the line already drawn, making it fresh (dark), just as after some time, lines become feint and you have to draw over them again in order to make them clearly visible? What have all of you done? You are making the lines fresh, are you not? This group isn't one that will step out of the line, is it? This is the group of those with the third eye. For instance, if something is not visible very clearly, by wearing spectcales you are able to see it clearly. Since this is a group of souls with the third eye, you do not step out of the line, do you? The line is always clearly visible to you. If you did something for the benefit of others, that is a different matter, but at least you have become successful in this. A special child means one who has become the most elevated human being following the highest code of conduct. The thoughts of one who is the most elevated human being following the highest code of conduct cannot be contrary to the code of conduct. The people consider your activity to be according to the highest code of conduct, or the Godly disciplines, and so you are the most elevated human beings following the highest code of conduct.
BapDada has seen the form of this gathering and has also heard about this gathering. He has seen that which is very good and also heard that which is very good. Each one of you has shaped yourself very well, just as when jewellery is made, the gold is first shaped, then they put on the diamonds etc. And so each jeweller has prepared very good jewellery. The designs created are also very good, but the jewellery hasn't yet been completed with the jewels. That will only happen when you bring the plans into a practical form. You have prepared good jewellery, that is, you have made good plans. All that remains to be seen is how each one can makes the jewellery elevated with invaluable diamonds. BapDada will see that result. You have become knowledge-full but according to the time, there is now the need for becoming powerful. You have prepared the jewellery for being knowledge-full and now you have to prepare the diamonds for being powerful. You have spread well. You have put your hands in each others which is why you have been able to spread well. What do you have to do further? If the one who has given a hand gets tired and weak you must prevent them from becoming tired and weak, that is, make such tired ones tireless. Only then will there be success. The success of this gathering does not lie in simply making the self strong but in making the entire gathering strong. The success of this gathering lies in bringing zeal and enthusiasm to all your companions. You will only be able to make the gathering successful when you accept everyone else's defects as your own defects. Seeing the defects, the tiredness and weakness of others, you must not become influenced by their company: So-and-so is doing this so I can also do it. Such and such a person did this, and so I did it too, what does it matter? Do not let this thought even enter your dreams: only then will there be success in the gathering.
The Madhuban niwasis are lucky too. The result of the Madhuban niwasis in the subject of maintaining zeal and enthusiasm and being tireless is very good. Become even more Maya-proof for the future, become waterproof. There are objects that are waterproof, are there not? In the same way, the Madhuban niwasis have to become Maya-proof. You have to claim this certificate. Do you understand?
To those who make themselves and others very powerful, to the master almighty authorities who have the treasurestore of all the powers, to the jewels of contentment who constantly remain content with themselves and with others, to those who win the heart of BapDada and everyone else, that is, to those who enable others to make their sanskars and nature like the Father; to such victorious jewels, love, remembrances and namaste from BapDada.
