"In order to attain success easily, become an embodiment of knowledge who experiments with knowledge."

Today, the Bestower of Blessings and the Bestower of Knowledge is seeing His children who are gyani and yogi souls. To what extent has each child become an embodiment of knowledge and yogyukt? Have you just become instruments to listen to and speak of knowledge? Or, have you become embodiments of knowledge? Have you become those who have yoga according to the time, or do you constantly have a yogi life, that is, are you naturally and constantly yogyukt and yuktiyukt in every action and are constant yogis? When anyone asks a Brahmin soul whether he is gyani and yogi, what would he reply? All of you are gyani and yogi souls, are you not? To be an embodiment of knowledge means that every thought, word and deed will be powerful. Anything wasteful will be finished because, wherever there is something powerful, there cannot be anything wasteful. Just as light and darkness cannot exist together, so knowledge is light and anything wasteful is darkness. At present, you have to pay attention to finish the wasteful. The main thing is to make the seed of thoughts powerful. If the seed of your thoughts is powerful, then your words, actions and relationships easily become powerful. So to be an embodiment of knowledge means that your every moment, every thought and every second are powerful.

All of you have become yogi souls, but for every thought to be naturally yogyukt and yuktiyukt it is numberwise. Why is there a number? Since the Bestower is one and the method is the same, why is there a number? BapDada saw that all of you have become yogis, but you experiment to a lesser extent. All of you are clever in having yoga and conducting yoga. Would any of you say that you don't know how to conduct yoga? Just as you are capable of having yoga and conducting yoga, in the same way, you have to become and make others just as worthy in experimenting. This is known as a yogi life, a yogyukt life. So, there is now a need for a life of this experimenting. Do you experiment with all the specialities you know of and speak of as a definition of yoga? First of all, check yourself to see to what extent you have become one who experiments with transforming your sanskars. The elevated sanskars of all of you is the foundation of the creation of the elevated world. If the foundation is strong, then everything else is automatically guaranteed to be strong. So check and see whether your sanskars are not deceiving you at a time of need. No matter how much someone, something or any situation tries to transform the elevated sanskars of a soul, for a soul who experiments with yoga, nothing can shake that soul and make him ordinary from elevated. It should not be: The situation was like this, that person was like that, or, the atmosphere was like that, which was why your elevated sanskars changed and became ordinary or wasteful. Would you call such a soul one who experiments? If you are not able to use the power of yoga at the right time, what would you call that? So, first of all, check the foundation: to what extent have you become one who experiments with yoga at the right time. If you have not yet become transformers of your own sanskars, how would you become transformers of the new world?

The first sign of a soul who experiments is that he will constantly be victorious over his sanskars by experimenting. The second sign is that, through experimenting with yoga, he will be victorious over the situations that come through nature. From time to time, the upheavals of nature also attract yogi souls towards themselves. At such a time, do you experiment with the method of yoga? Does nature sometimes not influence a yogi soul, an elevated soul? You are Brahmin souls, the most elevated souls, and therefore, nature is a servant of you most elevated souls. What would you say if the master came under the influence of the servant? Nowadays, matter in the form of facilities and materials influence the most elevated souls. Their yogi life is based on the facilities or materials. If they did not have so many facilities or so much material, then neither would they be so yogyukt. This is known as being influenced. Facilities automatically appear in front of the spiritual endeavour of a yogi soul or a soul who experiments. The facilities should not be the basis of spiritual endeavour, but it is the spiritual endeavour which automatically brings the facilities for support. This is known as being a soul who experiments. So check to what extent you have become victorious in transforming your sanskars and in being victorious over the influence of nature. The third sign is to be victorious over the vices. The five vices are a poisonous snake for others, but for you yogi souls who also experiment, that snake becomes a garland around your neck. Even today, devotees worship and remember the memorial of you Brahmins and Father Brahma in the form of the bodiless tapaswi, Shankar. Another memorial is that that snake becomes so subservient to you that it becomes a stage on which you dance in happiness. When you are victorious, what do you experience? What is your stage at that time? You continue to dance in happiness, do you not? So this stage (sthithi) has been shown as a stage (to dance on). Inner awareness is also called a stage. One who is victorious over the vices in this way is known as being one who experiments. So check to what extent you are one who experiments. If you do not experiment with yoga at the right time, if you do not attain success with the method of yoga at the right time, would you call it the right method? Time shows its fast speed from time to time. Division, irreligiousness, and extreme degradation are quickly increasing in every field. At such a time, it is necessary for there to be a fast increase in the method of yoga and an increase in success through the right method. So, the basis of claiming a number ahead is the easy method of being one who experiments. So what did BapDada see? Instead of having a fast speed at the time of experimenting with yoga, you have an ordinary speed. Now, increase this speed. What will happen then? Through using the right method, you will experience yourself to be an embodiment of success. Even today, people continue to experience attaining success from your non­living idols. It is because you became embodiments of success in the living form that your memorials have continued. You are not those who have occult powers, but those who have success by having the right method. So, do you understand what you have to do? You have everything, but to experiment with it at the right time and to be successful in that experiment is known as being a soul who is an embodiment of knowledge. Such souls who are embodiments of knowledge are extremely loved and extremely close. Achcha.

To those who constantly experience elevated success through the method of yoga, to the souls who transform their sanskars from ordinary to elevated sanskars, to the victorious souls who are conquerors of matter and conquerors of the vices, to the souls who experience the speed of experimenting to be fast, to those yogi souls who are embodiments of knowledge and are yogyukt, love, remembrance and namaste from BapDada.

BapDada speaking to Dadi Nirmalshanta: Do you like the gathering? The gathering has special beauty. Everyone’s vision falls on all of you with so much love. While there is service to do, that much service definitely has to take place through the body. No matter how, the body will continue to function. You now know the art of making your body function. It is functioning well because you have the blessings of the Father and everyone else. You have to remain happy and distribute happiness. What else do you have to do? Everyone is so happy to see you, and so you are distributing happiness, are you not? You are eating it yourself and also distributing it. Each one of you is an image that grants visions. Everyone’s vision falls on the instrument souls, and so you have become images that grant visions, have you not? Achcha.

Avyakt BapDada meeting groups personally: The basis of Brahmin life is remembrance and service

According to the drama, everyone in their Brahmin life has received a chance to do service. The basis of Brahmin life is remembrance and service. If remembrance and service are weak, then, just as when the body becomes weak you have to make it work with medicine and by pushing it, similarly, if the basis of remembrance and service in Brahmin life is not strong, if it is weak, then that Brahmin life will also be sometimes fast, sometimes slow and sometimes will need to be pushed. If you have some co­operation, someone’s company or the right circumstances, you would then continue, otherwise you would become slack. This is why the basis of remembrance and service has to be particularly powerful. Both should be powerful. If you are doing a lot of service and your remembrance is weak or if there is a lot of remembrance and your service is weak, then too, it would not be said to be a fast speed. Both remembrance and service have to be fast; they have to be powerful. So, are both powerful or is there a difference? Is it that there is sometimes greater service and at other times there is greater remembrance? Both should be simultaneous: remembrance and altruistic service. It should not be service with selfish motives. If service is altruistic, it is very easy to become a conqueror of Maya. In every action, before the completion of that action you will always be able to see victory in that. There will be the experience of such firm faith that victory is already guaranteed. If Brahmin souls are not victorious, who else will be? Will the warriors be victorious? It is the victory of Brahmins, is it not? There will not be a question mark. There won’t be the words, “I am doing my best. I am moving along. We will see about it. It will happen. It has to happen.” To say, “I don’t know what will happen or whether it will happen or not,” ­ are these words of faith? The memorial is of those who become victorious through having faith in the intellect. It is because it happened in the practical form that there is the memorial. The sign of faith in the intellect is guaranteed victory. When someone has a particular power, whether of wealth, an intellect, relationships or connections, then he has that faith that this is not a big thing. This is nothing. You have all powers. Do you have the power of wealth or is it the multimillionaires who have the power of wealth? The greatest wealth of all is the imperishable wealth which you have with you at all times. You have the power of wealth, you have the power of an intellect, you have the power of position. You have all the powers that are remembered. Do you have them or do they sometimes disappear? Experience them in the emerged form. It should not be that you think, “Yes, I am a child of the Almighty Authority”, but that you are not able to experience it. So, are all of you full or a little empty? Attain success at the right time with the right method. It should not be that you don’t have these at a time of need but that you otherwise have the intoxication of having many powers. Never forget your powers; continue to use them. If you know how to use them for yourself, you should also be able to use them for the task of others. Have the Pandavas developed power or do you sometimes get angry? Do you sometimes get a little angry? Do you get angry when someone gets angry or when someone insults you? This is like being defeated when an enemy comes. Do the mothers have a little attachment? The Pandavas should have the happiness of their victory every cycle in an emerged form. Whenever anyone remembers the word ‘Pandavas’, together with that word, victory will also come in front of it. Pandava means victorious. What is the significance of the story of the Pandavas? It is victory, is it not? So, you are victorious every cycle. Have this intoxication in an emerged form, not merged. Achcha.
