"The method to increase the blessings received from the Bestower of Blessings."

Today, BapDada is seeing His spiritual chatrak (thirsty) children. Each child is chatrak (eager) to listen to the Father, to have a meeting with Him and to become equal to Him. By listening to Him, your thirst of birth after birth is quenched. The nectar of knowledge makes the thirsty souls fully satisfied. While listening to Him, souls also become embodiments of knowledge, the same as the Father, or it can be said that by listening to the gyan-murli, they themselves become the murlidhar children. While celebrating a spiritual meeting, they become merged in the Father’s love. While celebrating a meeting, they become loveleen (absorbed in love) and have a stage of being totally lost in love. Celebrating a meeting, they remain lost in the experience of belonging to the one Father and none other. While celebrating a meeting, they remain free from obstacles and become red in the company of the Father’s colour. When they remain merged in this way, or they remain absorbed in love, what desire do they have? Of becoming equal to the Father. They become the ones who place their every step on the Father’s footstep, that is, those who become equal to the Father. Just as the Father’s form is always that of the Almighty Authority, in the same way, children also always become the embodiment of all powers. Whatever is the Father’s form – always almighty, always light – similarly, children become like that.

You know the special things to become equal, do you not, as to which are the things in which you have to become equal to the Father? You are becoming that and you have become that. As is the Father’s name, the children’s name is the same. World benefactors is your name, is it not? Whatever is the Father’s form is the children’s form. Whatever are the Father’s virtues are the children’s virtues. Only those who imbibe every virtue of the Father become equal to the Father. Whatever is the Father’s task is also the children’s task. You have to become equal to the Father in every respect. That is everyone’s aim, is it not? You are not those who stay personally in front of the Father, but those who become equal to Him. This is known as being those who follow the Father. So check yourself as to what extent you have become equal to the Father in all respects? The Father has given you children the blessing to become equal from the beginning. The blessing from the beginning is: “May you be full with all powers.” In lokik life, a father or guru gives blessings. May you be wealthy. May you have a son. May you have a long life. May you always remain happy – these are the blessings they give. What blessing has BapDada given? May you always be full with the wealth of knowledge and the wealth of powers. This is the treasure of Brahmin life.

To live from the moment that you have taken Brahmin birth until the end of the task of the establishment of the confluence age means to have a long life. If you go away from the Brahmin life to the old sanskars and the old world in between, then that is said to have taken birth, but to have a short life-span because you have died in the Brahmin life. Some are such that they go into a comma, while leading this life, it is almost like not living this life, and sometimes, they do awaken, but that living is just like having died. So, “May you have a long life” means to always live the Brahmin life from the beginning until the end, and to live with all the attainments of the elevated divine life. Together with a long life-span, the blessing of “May you be free from disease” is also essential. If you have a long life-span, but the illness of Maya repeatedly makes you weak, then that living is not living. So, together with “May you have a long life-span”, you also have to remain constantly healthy, that is, you also have to remain free from obstacles. Do not repeatedly become confused or life done in the bed of a disheartened stage. Those who are ill are bed-ridden. You can finish the small problems while walking and moving around, but when a big problem comes and you become confused and disheartened, then what is the condition of your mind? When your body is bed-ridden, you don’t feel like getting up, walking about, eating or drinking. In the same way, here too, you will sit for yoga but your heart won’t be in it, and you will listen to knowledge, but not with your heart. You won’t serve with your heart. You will do it superficially, out of fear or because of people’s opinion. This would not be called a constantly healthy life. So, this is what it means: “May you have a long life-span” means, “May you be free from disease”.

“May you have a son”, or “May you have children”. Do you have children? Have you not created two to four children? You have the blessing of “May you have children”, do you not? You don’t receive a blessing of having just two to four children, but when you become stable in the stage of a master creator, the same as the Father, then all of this feels to be your creation. Become an unlimited master creator. This becomes an unlimited blessing, “May you have a son”, “May you have children”. It is not limited in that you have created two to four students and so they are yours; no. The stage of a master creator is an unlimited stage. By being stable in the stage of a world benefactor, you consider all souls and the elements of nature to be your creation and have good wishes and pure feelings of benevolence for them. These are the feelings that the creator has for the creation. When you become an unlimited master creator then no limited attraction can attract you. Where will you constantly see yourself standing? Just as the creator of a tree is its seed, and when the tree reaches its final stage, the seed comes up above, in the same way, an unlimited master creator will always experience the self to be standing at the top of the kalpa tree. Standing with the Father at the top of the tree, you will be a master seed and spread rays of powers, virtues, good wishes and pure feelings, love and co-operation. For instance, because the sun is high up, it is able to automatically spread its rays over the whole world. In the same way, you can become a master creator and a master seed and give the whole tree rays and water. So, how many children do you have? The whole world is your creation, is it not? So, “May you be a master creator”. This is known as “May you have children.” So, you have so many blessings. This is known as becoming equal to the Father. The Father has given every Brahmin soul these blessings as soon as they took birth. You have received the blessings, have you not? Or, are you still to receive them?

When anyone is given a blessing, together with the blessing, he is also told the method to use that blessing. If you don’t adopt this method, you are unable to take benefit of the blessing. So, all of you have received blessings, and you are able to increase every blessing by using it in the right way. How can you make it grow? The easiest and the most elevated method for that is to be aware of the blessing according to the time. And by having it in your awareness, you will become powerful and become an embodiment of success. The more you use it according to the time, the more it will continue to grow, that is, you will continue to experience the fruit of that blessing. You have received such powerful blessings, and you can attain its fruit, not by using them just for yourself, but you can also enable other souls to become worthy to receive blessings from the Father, the Bestower of Blessings. These blessings of the confluence age stay with you for 21 births in a different way. Their form at the confluence age is different, and these same blessings continue for 21 births in the form of your life. However, the time to attain the Bestower of Blessings and the blessings is now. So, check: Am I using all the blessings and easily moving forward?

The speciality of the blessing is that the one who has received the blessing never has to make any effort. When devotee souls become tired having laboured so much, they ask the Father for blessings. When people come to you and they don’t want to make the effort of having yoga, what language do they use? They say: Simply give me a blessing. Put your hand on my head. You Brahmin children always have the hand of the Father, the Bestower of Blessings on you. The elevated directions are His hand. He will not place the physical hand on you for 24 hours, will He? The hand of the blessing of the Father’s elevated directions is always on you children. From amrit vela till the moment you go to sleep at night, for every breath, for every thought and for every action, you have the hand of elevated directions. Continue to use this blessing with the right method and you will never have to labour.

It is remembered for the deities: they are ignorant of the knowledge of desire. This is the speciality of an angelic life. In a deity life, there is no question of any desires. A Brahmin life becomes an angelic life, that is, you attain the karmateet stage. To perform any action – pure, wasteful, sinful or any action of the past –by being tied in bondage by that karma would not be said to be the karmateet stage. One is relationship of karma and the other is bondage. So, just as there is the praise “ignorant of the knowledge of any limited desires”, in the same way, an angelic life or a Brahmin life means to be ignorant of the knowledge of the word “difficult” and of any burden. You are not even aware of what that is. A soul who has received these blessings means one who experiences ignorance of the knowledge of the word “difficult” in his life. Such a soul is called a blessed soul. So, to become equal to the Father means to always be sustained with the blessings received from the Bestower of Fortune, and to always remain carefree and to experience guaranteed victory.

Some children make very good effort. However, to experience a pressure of effort is not accurate effort. To pay attention is the method of Brahmin life. However, attention changes into tension. When there isn’t natural attention, that is not called accurate attention. For instance, you have knowledge of physical things in your life, such as, “this is not good”, “this should be done”, “this should not be done”. The sign of those who are knowledge-full on the basis of knowledge is that they have natural attention, “I can eat this, I cannot eat this. I can do this, I cannot do this.” They don’t have tension at every step as to whether they should do something or not, whether they should eat something or not, whether they should conduct themselves in that way or not? They have natural attention with the power of knowledge. In this way, an accurate effort-maker will have natural attention at every step and in every action because the light and might of knowledge automatically makes him move accurately in the right way. So, you may make effort. Definitely pay attention, but not in the form of tension. When you have tension, then you want to do a lot of work or you want to become number one, but the tension doesn’t allow you to do as much as you want, it doesn’t allow you to become what you want to, and tension creates more tension. Because what you want is not happening, tension increases.

So, all of you make effort, but some people make effort a little heavy whereas some become completely careless. Whatever is to happen will happen. We shall see about it. Who is watching, who is listening… Neither is good. Therefore, with balance, experience the blessings from the Father. Always keep the experience of having the Father’s hand constantly on you in your awareness. Just as devotees keep a physical picture in front of them, feeling that that is the hand of blessing on their hands, so, you too can always keep in your awareness while walking and moving the picture of this experience in your intellect. Do you understand? You have made a lot of effort. Now, continue to be sustained with blessings and fly. You experienced the Father as the Bestower of Knowledge and the Bestower of Fortune, now, experience Him as the Bestower of Blessings. Achcha.

To those who constantly follow the Father at every step, to those who experience themselves to be the elevated souls who are blessed by the Father, the Bestower of Blessings, to those who easily overcome every step, to those who constantly use every blessing at the right time, to the elevated souls who become equal to the Father, love, remembrance and namaste from BapDada, in the form of the Bestower of Blessings.

BapDada meeting main senior brothers:

You have received so many blessings from birth. Each one of you has received your own blessings. You have taken birth with blessings. Otherwise, today, you wouldn’t have move forward. You have taken birth through blessings and this is why you are moving forward. The praise of the Pandavas is not a small thing. If we were to speak of each one’s speciality, there are so many. The Bhagwad that is created was created. The Father has each one’s speciality in His vision. While seeing anything else, He is not seeing it, while knowing anything else, He isn’t aware of it. So, the speciality is constantly making you move forward and will continue to do so. Those souls who are blessed from birth can never move backwards. You are the blessed souls who will always be flying. The blessings from the Father, the Bestower of Blessings is making you move forward. The Pandavas remain incognito, but you are always revealed in the Father’s heart. It is the Pandavas who make the good plans. The Shaktis hunt the prey, but it is the wonder of those who bring the prey to them. If they don’t bring the prey, who will they hunt? This is why the Pandavas have their special blessing. You have received the special power of remembrance and service. You receive special power of remembrance and you also receive special power of service. Why? There is a reason for that because those who have come at a time of need have received a special blessing. When the establishment first took place, you Pandavas were merged, you hadn’t emerged. The Shaktis became an example and seeing their example you moved forward. So, they became an example at a time of need. This is why to the extent that someone becomes co-operative at a time of need, whether through their life or through service, according to the drama, they receive special power. There is of course their own effort, but they also receive extra power. Achcha.

You also receive a lot of power from the souls who become happy when you have served them. There is a need for the service of the experienced souls because seeing those who have taken sustenance from the corporeal form, they are always reminded of the Father. Whenever you (Dadis) go anywhere, what do they especially ask you? Tell us the stories. Tell us some things about Baba. So, that is a speciality, is it not? This is why you have received a blessing of the speciality of service. Even if you don’t give lectures standing on a stage, this is the biggest lecture. To relate the divine activities and to give inspirations to make their character divine is the greatest service of all. So, you have to go on service and you definitely have to become instruments for service. Achcha.

Blessing: May you be powerful and with catching power, catch your original sansars and become their form.

The main basis of effort is catching power. Just as scientists are able to catch sound from a long time ago, in the same way, with the power of silence, catch your original deity sanskars. For this, always have the awareness: I was that and I am once again becoming that. The more you catch those sanskars, the more you will become their form. The things of 5000 years ago should be as clearly experienced as though they are a matter of yesterday. Make your awareness so elevated and clear and only then will you become powerful.

Slogan: The breath of Brahmin life is happiness. Even if you lose your body, your happiness should not disappear.
