"To celebrate the Avyakt Year means to become worthy and to give the proof of that."

Today, avyakt BapDada is celebrating a meeting with His children who are the avyakt image. To be avyakt means to be beyond corporeal feelings and to be loving like the avyakt father. This year, all the children are keeping the aim of becoming like the father and are making very good effort according to their capacity. Together with this aim, you are also moving along while imbibing the qualifications for this aim. BapDada is happy to see the effort of all the children. All of you understand that to become the same is to give the proof of love. This is why the children who give such proof are called worthy children. So, BapDada becomes pleased seeing the worthy children and also gives extra special help.

o the extent that they become courageous, so they automatically become multimillion times worthy of receiving Baba's help. What is the sign of such worthy children? Just as it is remembered of the Father that the Father's treasure­store is constantly full, in the same way, the worthy children's treasure­store constantly remains full with the blessings of love from the heart, with the experience of co­ operation from everyone and with all treasures. They will never experience themselves to be lacking any of the treasures. There is the song emerging automatically from their hearts: There is nothing lacking in the treasure of the children of the Father. From their vision, attitude, vibrations, lips and through contact with them, they are experienced to be souls who are constantly full. So, such worthy children are constantly with the Father and are also His companions. There should be this double experience. They have the experience of constant company through their love, and they constantly experience the stage of being a companion in service. The experience of both of these, that is, of having His company and of being a companion, automatically makes you a detached observer, that is, detached and loving like the father. You saw how Father Brahma constantly experienced himself to be in a combined form with the Father and also gave this experience to others. No one can separate a combined form. In the same way, worthy children constantly experience themselves to be in a combined form with the Father; there is no power that can separate them.

Just as in the golden age the elements are the servants of the deities, that is, they constantly remain co­operative according to the time, in the same way, because of the elevated stage of the worthy children, all the powers and all the virtues constantly remain co­operative with them according to the time. That is, they remain sovereigns over all the powers and all the virtues. Together with this, what is the special form of service of such worthy children? Just as all of you continually serve through words and through the mind, so they too do such service, but their special service is that they do not just give the donation of the powers and virtues attained from the Father to all souls, but they also give the experience of co­operation and attainment. They give donations to the souls who have no knowledge and they give co­operation and attainment to the Brahmin souls, because the greatest donation is the donation of virtues and powers.

To make those who are weak powerful is the greatest donation and co­operation. Do you know how to give such co­operation? Or, are you at present thinking about taking? Are you still those who are taking or have you become the children of the Bestower who give? Is it that sometimes you give and sometimes you take? Start to give and, in your taking, you will automatically become full, because the Father has given everything to everyone. He has not kept anything for Himself; He has given everything. It is just that those who take (from Baba) do not know how to look after it or how to use it in the task. So the more you continue to give, the more you will have the experience of becoming complete. You are such worthy children, are you not? Are you in the line of those who are worthy? Or, are you in the line of those who are becoming worthy? Just as, in a worldly way, parents make their children dance in their hands, that is, they constantly keep them happy, full of zeal and enthusiasm, in the same way, worthy children will make others dance with zeal and enthusiasm and make them fly in the flying stage. This year, you are celebrating the Avyakt Year. The Avyakt Year means to give the proof of being worthy of the Father. To give such proof means to celebrate. The meaning of avyakt is to be beyond corporeal feelings and desires.

Generally, in life, the basis of the stages of ascent and descent are these two aspects: one is loving feelings (bhavna) and the other is intentions (bhav). If in any task you have elevated feelings for both the task and the one who is carrying out the task, then the result attained by those feelings is automatically elevated. One is to have a feeling of benevolence for everyone. The second is to have a feeling of giving love and co­operation no matter what anyone is like. The third is of constantly increasing zeal and enthusiasm. The fourth is to have a feeling of everyone belonging to you, no matter what someone may be like. The fifth is the foundation of all of these, and that is the feeling of soul consciousness. These are called positive feelings. Therefore, to become avyakt means to have all these positive feelings. Only when your feelings are the opposite of these positive feelings do corporeal feelings attract you towards themselves. The meaning of corporeal feelings is to be negative, that is, to be the opposite of all these five aspects. You yourselves know what the opposite of these is; there is no need to speak about it. When your feelings are the opposite of these, you cannot stabilise yourself in the avyakt stage.

They are the special doors for Maya to come through. Check any obstacle that comes, and you’ll find that the reason is that, instead of having loving feelings, you have the opposite feelings. Feelings first come in the form of thoughts, then in words and then in actions. As are your feelings, so you will see the activity and words of others with that intention, and that is how you will listen to them and come into relationship with them. Feelings can change intentions. If, at any time, you have feelings of jealousy of any soul, that is, if you do not have the feeling of that one belonging to you, you will find that through every activity and word of that soul a misunderstanding will arise. That one may be doing something good, but, because your feelings are not good, you will only see a bad intention in that one's activity and words. Feelings change intentions, and so check whether you have good wishes and pure feelings for all souls. Because there is a difference in understanding their intention, this misunderstanding becomes a door for Maya. In order to create the avyakt stage, especially check your wishes and feelings and you will easily have special experiences through the avyakt stage. Many children remain beyond impure wishes and impure feelings. However, one is pure wishes and pure feelings, the next is wasteful wishes and wasteful feelings and the third is ordinary wishes and ordinary feelings, because to be a Brahmin means to have the feeling of doing service.

However, even having ordinary wishes and ordinary feelings, that is the service for Brahmins, because to be a Brahmin means to do service through feelings. So, do not cause any loss even through ordinary feelings and ordinary wishes. It means that you are not able to carry out the duty of Brahmin life, which is to do service through feelings and good wishes. This is why you will not be able to experience the special blessing of accumulating the fruit of service in Brahmin life. So, transform ordinary feelings and ordinary wishes into elevated feelings and elevated wishes. If you check, you will be able to change and easily become avyakt angels like the father. So do you understand how you have to celebrate the avyakt year?

Having pure feelings is a very elevated way to do service through the mind, and having elevated wishes is an easy way to be loved by those who come into connection and relationship with you. Those who always have elevated wishes for everyone can become close beads of the rosary, because the rosary is a sign of closeness and elevated feelings for those with whom you come into contact and relationship. No matter with what intention someone speaks or moves along, you must constantly have elevated feelings for that one. Only those who are victorious in this have a right to be threaded in the rosary of victory. Even if someone cannot give lectures on the field of service or cannot make plans, however if that one is able to have good wishes for each one he or she comes into connection and relationship with, then these good wishes will be accumulated in the account of subtle service through feelings, because those who have good wishes constantly give happiness to others and receive happiness. So, this too is service. This feeling of service enables you to claim a right to a number in the front. Therefore, you will become a bead of the rosary. Do you understand? Do not ever think that you never have a chance to give lectures or that you do not have a chance to do important service. Those who take this golden chance of doing service through feelings will come into the line of chancellors, that is, they will become special souls. Therefore, in this year, pay special attention to imbibing good wishes and elevated feelings.

You can transform bad wishes and impure feelings with your good wishes and pure feelings. You were told that a rose can imbibe fragrance from the bad odour of manure and become a fragrant rose. So can you elevated souls not transform impure, wasteful and ordinary feelings and wishes into elevated feelings and wishes? Or would you say: "What can I do? This one has impure feelings; this one has very bad intentions towards me; what can I do?" You will not say this, will you? Your title is, "A world transformer". Since you can change tamoguni matter into satoguni matter, can you not become the ones who transform the feelings and intentions of souls? Then this aim will easily and automatically bring about the qualifications for becoming an avyakt angel, equal to the father. Do you understand how you have to celebrate? To celebrate means to become. This is the principle of the language of Brahmins. Do you have to become or just celebrate? There is a special need for Brahmins to make this effort. And this service will bring the beads of the rosary close and reveal the rosary. The beads of the rosary are becoming ready individually, but a rosary means closeness between each bead. So these two aspects are the method to bring about closeness between each bead. This is known as becoming worthy, that is, those who give the proof of that. Achcha.

To all the worthy children everywhere who give the proof of love, to the souls who constantly have zeal and enthusiasm for becoming like the father, to the victorious souls who constantly have elevated feelings and elevated wishes for all souls, to the world­ transformer souls who transform every soul with their elevated feelings, to the victorious jewels who are constantly victorious and are coming close in the rosary of victory, together with greetings for the Avyakt Year, BapDada's love, remembrance and namaste.
