What do all effort-makers aim to attainment through the present effort? The attainment of the deity status will be in the future. However, what is the aim of the effort for the present time? (To be an angel). What is the main qualification of an angel? What are the two main qualifications needed to be an angel? One is light and the other is might. Both are necessary. Both light and might are clearly visible in the life of an angel. Which special power is needed to attain the light, and which special power is needed to attain the might? There are many powers, are there not? However, mention two separate virtues needed to be the form of might and the form of light. One is the power of churning and the other is the power of tolerance. The greater the power of tolerance, the more you automatically attain all the powers. Knowledge is called light, and so the light of knowledge is needed in order to make the path of effort easy and clear. So for that light, one requires the power of churning. So one requirement is the power of churning and the other is the power of tolerance. If you have both these powers, everyone will have a vision of the form of an angel as you move. All other virtues are imbibed when there is the power of tolerance. One who has the power of tolerance will automatically have the power of discrimination, the power to judge and the power of maturity; many others follow that one. The power of tolerance is necessary and so is the power of churning; the power of churning for the mind and the power of tolerance for words and actions. If there is the power of tolerance, whatever words you speak will not be ordinary. Secondly, the actions you perform will also be accordingly. So both the powers are necessary. Those with the power of tolerance are successful in their tasks as well. If there is a lack of the power of tolerance, there is a lack of success in all tasks. Only one who has the power of tolerance will maintain the subtle stage and the form of pure thoughts. There is a sparkle on the face of one who is tolerant. No matter what the sanskars of others are like, with your power of tolerance you will submerge them for a temporary time. So both the powers are required. The power of tolerance is required for your effort and for the thoughts of your mind. This is also called controlling power. If there is the power of tolerance, you will be able to control waste thoughts. So pay attention to both these powers.
What is the easy method for being a number-one businessman? Just by keeping yourself busy, you will become a number-one businessman. One who does not know how to keep the self busy cannot be called a worthy businessman. To be a businessman here means to earn an income for the self and for others. Don't keep yourself free of this even for a second. What number businessman are you? The more you gallop here, the more you will gallop for the future throne. You have a good chance. You can do whatever you wish. Everyone has freedom. Understand that the more someone takes the chance the more he is underlining the target of claiming the throne. The very meaning of a businessman is that even one thought should not be wasted. There should be an income in every thought. Just as that businessman creates a lot out of each penny, here also, each second and thought should bring an income. This is known as a number-one businessman. What other work does the intellect have? The intellect should remain busy only in this. All other aspects have finished, have they not? Is there any aspects left where the intellect can go to? All other aspects have finished, have they not? The aspect of all your old sanskars has finished, has it not? This is the only direction, path and destination for the intellect. Does the intellect go towards the old sanskars, towards the karmic accounts of the body, or is it pulled towards the waste thoughts of the mind? All these directions have finished, have they not? Even if there is an illness of the body, there is the knowledge that this is such and such a pain, and that this is its cure. For you have the awareness that if the body is well, you will be able to do more service. You don't have any other selfish motive. To do something for the sake of service means to be an observer. Now only one path remains. All other paths which become the cause of making the intellect wander have finished. It is as if there is the seal of the almighty government. Something which has been sealed can never be opened until the time has been completed. So you should check yourself in this way. If something is in someone's fortune, the circumstances are created in such a way that it becomes a lift. Here also, if it is in someone's fortune from the previous kalpa, and if it is fixed in the drama, even though the soul is making his own effort, he also receives this gift from the divine family and from BapDada. So check this also: What are the different types of lifts that you have received from BapDada and the divine family in the form of gifts? Important people receive gifts and they carefully keep them in a showcase, using them to glorify the name of their country. Here, you have to glorify the name of BapDada and the clan through the gifts you have received from time to time. Achcha.
When you people first went out for service there wasn't the power of knowledge, but on the basis of which power did you achieve success? Renunciation and love; day and night the love of the intellect was for Baba and the yagya. "Baba" and "Yagya" used to emerge from deep within your heart. It was such love that it made everyone co-operative. The centres were created with such a power of love. So which power gave co-operation at the beginning of the establishment? The same will happen at the end. Firstly, you became manmanabhav with love from the corporeal. The love of the corporeal one made everyone co-operative and inspired everyone with renunciation. Surround everything with the power of the gathering and the power of love. Now look, the main basis for success in service abroad is the surrounding of love and co-operation. The practical proof of knowledge is love and the power of the gathering. The main basis for success in service is this: wherever you live, you should think how you should plan service so that the task of giving the message is accomplished quickly. A great deal is left to be done yet. With love there is also a jump ahead in renunciation. How did all of you have renunciation? You had love in your every vein, which is why your jump has been remembered.
The children from abroad are also moving forward with Godly intoxication and happiness and you will constantly be successful in service with that intoxication and happiness. The tilak of victory is already applied. Constantly see your tilak of victory. BapDada is pleased seeing all that has been done up until now. However, you have to move forward. When you have created heirs, Baba will praise you. Baba is just pleased seeing what has been done up until now. You still have to carry out a task which would be worth praising. Baba is pleased because the intoxication and happiness are maintained constantly. The result up until now is very good. If in any task, one has courage in taking up the beetle leaf of responsibility everyone else becomes co-operative. Even though the group is of a variety, the bouquet is very good; therefore congratulations. Achcha.
9) In order to make the soul satopradhan, perform every action as a karma yogi. Make effort to remember Baba at least for eight hours during the day. Whilst performing actions to earn your livelihood, let the yoga of the intellect be linked with Baba. As you walk, as you move, as you perform actions, let the hands be working and the heart be with the Beloved.
10) Children, you must not become trapped in the name and form of any bodily being. This is a very bad sickness. This is the net of Maya, the mouse. You must never be trapped in this net.
