"Now, your attitude of unlimited disinterest must emerge and create an atmosphere of sadhana (spiritual endeavour)."

Today, BapDada, the Ocean of Love, is meeting His extremely lovely children. Today is a special day of love. From amrit vela, children everywhere have been swept along in waves of love. The love in each child’s heart is reaching Baba, the Comforter of Hearts. In response to the love of you children, BapDada blesses all of you with love and power. Baba calls today the special day of transformation in the creation of the yagya. On this day, Brahma Baba became the incognito backbone in order to reveal his children on the corporeal stage of the world. This is why this day is also called the day the children are revealed. It is called the day of power. It is called the day to give will power. Brahma Baba, in an incognito way, is inspiring everything to happen. He is not separated from you, he is with you, but is just doing everything in an incognito way. This avyakt day is for speeding up the children’s task. Even now, the canopy of protection is sustaining all of you children. Just as a mother is a canopy of protection for her children, so too, from amrit vela, Mother Brahma has been looking after all the children everywhere. It is you children who are the instruments in the corporeal form, but Mother Brahma, as a bestower of fortune, sees the fortune of every child and especially sustains you with special power, courage, zeal and enthusiasm. Father Shiva is with you anyway, but Brahma has the special part of sustaining you.

Today, in return of the special love you children have, Brahma, the bestower of fortune, as a bhandari of the treasure­store of blessings is distributing all blessings. To the extent that you children celebrate a meeting through your avyakt stage, you are accordingly easily able to receive whatever blessings you want. It is an open treasure­store of blessings. Today is the elevated day on which you can take as many blessings as you want. You easily receive the gift of blessings in the return of your love. You don’t have to make effort to receive a gift. You receive all attainments easily. You don’t have to ask for a gift, you automatically receive a gift. To receive blessings in return of your own efforts is a different matter. However, today, Mother Brahma is especially giving you this in return for your love. Did each of you experience yourself receiving all blessings easily today? Even now, in return of the true love in your heart, you can still receive all blessings. The way to attain blessings is to have love in your heart. The love in your heart is a treasure from which you can take all the imperishable blessings that you want from BapDada. Do all of you children have that treasure of love? You have come here because you have the treasure of love. Love has pulled you here. It is easy to have love. None of you need to labour in your efforts, because every one of you experiences love. Your love used to be shared out to many and is now only connected to One. Previously, you had many different relationships, but now all the relationships you have with the One. Therefore, you are easily able to give your total love to just the One. This is why each of you says, “My Baba”. All of you have had a heart­to­heart conversation and said, “My Baba”, have you not? What have all of you been doing all day? You have been offering flowers of love to Baba. BapDada received the most beautiful flowers of love. The love all of you have is very good. Baba now says: Let the form of your love emerge in a practical way. This is what it means to become equal. All of you have the aim of becoming equal, do you not? That should now be visible in a practical way. Whichever child people see, meet, or come into contact with, they should be able to see the virtues of God, the Father, and of Father Brahma in the face and form of that child. They should experience your eyes, your words, your attitude and your vibrations to be totally unique. Because Madhuban is the place where Brahma performed actions and because this place is filled with the vibrations of his tapasya, karma and renunciation, everyone who comes here easily experiences this place to be a unique world. This place has been made alokik by the vibrations of Father Brahma and the special children. In the same way, wherever you children are living, and wherever you are working, others should experience your virtues, your deeds and the atmosphere of your elevated attitude to be equal to the Father’s. This is what BapDada refers to as becoming equal to the Father (Bap Samaan). Up to now you have been thinking about becoming equal to the Father, but now, that thought should be visible on your face and in your behaviour. The sound that should emerge from the heart of anyone who comes into contact with you should be that you souls are equal to the Father. (Every now and then Baba started coughing.) Today, this mike is not so good, but still Baba has to meet you. This too is a mike. If this mike (body) doesn’t work, then this mike (physical mike) is of no use. It isn’t serious because this is just the fruit of the season.

Now, BapDada wants to see this revelation in all of you children. When you reveal something in words, it has an impact, but there will be much greater impact through your virtues and actions. Everyone should experience from each of you children to have something special in your eyes. They shouldn’t experience you as being ordinary, but as being alokik, unique. Their minds should be wondering how you became like this; and who made you like this. They themselves should wonder and ask you: Who made you like this? Nowadays, when people see something beautiful, they ask who made it. In the same way, you must reveal the Father by making your stage equal to the Father’s. Nowadays, the majority of souls wonder whether it is possible for souls to become like that. They wonder whether it is possible for anyone to live in the atmosphere of this corporeal world and still become like that. You should show them that it really is possible to become that in practical and that you have to become that. Nowadays, people believe in practical examples a lot more than theory. They want to see something rather than just hearing about it. There are very many of you children everywhere, so if all of you were to become practical examples of being equal to the Father, they would not take long to understand and accept this. Your subjects would then be created very quickly. When they see you as the practical example of making less effort in a shorter time, they can be stamped with the stamp of a subject. All of you are to become kings and queens, are you not?

Because of the present atmosphere, BapDada will once again draw your attention to now letting the attitude of disinterest emerge in your minds and hearts. Whether you children live at home with your family, or at the centre or anywhere else, BapDada has given physical facilities to each and every one of you. There isn’t a single child who doesn’t have the means to eat or a place to stay. Each of you has all the facilities you need whilst being able to maintain an attitude of unlimited disinterest. It is a different matter if someone is lacking something due to his or her own carelessness or laziness. However, BapDada knows that according to the drama, each of you children has every essential thing that you need. You have all the facilities and will continue to receive all the facilities you need all the time. However, in some cases, the use of the facilities is greater than the need of them. Due to this, there is less spiritual endeavour and more use of the facilities. This is why BapDada is specially underlining this for you on this day, the day of becoming equal to the Father. You have been using all of those facilities a great deal. Whatever you have done up to now has been very good. However, now, to increase your spiritual endeavour means to create an attitude of unlimited disinterest. You saw how Brahma Baba till the last moment gave you children many facilities and how he himself remained detached from using them. Whilst having and using the facilities, you have to remain detached from them. It is a different matter when you don’t have those facilities to say that you have unlimited disinterest in them. Some say, “I have disinterest”. But if you don’t have any of them, how could there be an interest in them? Now that you have knowledge, and feelings of world benefit and feelings of wanting to reveal the Father and the self, instead of relying on those facilities, make spiritual endeavour. At the beginning of the creation of the yagya, the facilities you had were no less, but you were able to remain in a bhatti of unlimited disinterest. The fourteen years of tapasya you did was in an atmosphere of unlimited disinterest. BapDada has now given you many facilities. You lack nothing in terms of facilities, but using these facilities, you should have unlimited disinterest. At this time, it is essential for you to adopt this method. The desire of everyone to benefit the souls of the world is increasing everywhere. Souls are distressed because of being subservient to their desires. Even multimillionaires become distressed because of being influenced by their desires. The main cause of an atmosphere of distress within souls is all the limited desires they have. Therefore, with your attitude of unlimited disinterest, you now have to make those souls have an attitude of disinterest. Without your attitude of unlimited disinterest, souls will not be able to experience peace or happiness nor will they be able to become liberated from their subservience. You are the roots of the tree. In the picture of the tree, where are you Brahmins shown? You are shown amongst the roots. You are the foundation. Whatever wave you create will spread throughout in the world. This is why BapDada is telling you to pay attention to your attitude of disinterest so that it becomes equal to the Father’s, and especially so that it becomes equal to Father Brahma’s in the corporeal form. Everyone should see that you are not influenced by your facilities, but are engrossed in making spiritual endeavour. Whilst having all facilities you should have an attitude of disinterest. Use the essential facilities, but have as much disinterest in your heart as possible, and then you won’t be subservient by those facilities. Now create an atmosphere of spiritual endeavour everywhere. Because time is drawing to a close, to have real tapasya and make real spiritual endeavour means is to have unlimited disinterest. You have increased service a great deal this year. You have held big programmes everywhere. You have already been told that this year, many souls have become co­operative through service and have come into close contact. However, do you just have to let them remain co­operative souls? Some of those good co­operative souls are very good. Now, bring those co­ operative souls close and into a close relationship with you. Give them such an experience that from just being co­operative, they become easy yogis. For this, you first need an atmosphere of sadhana and next, an atmosphere of unlimited disinterest. Through this, those co­operative souls will easily become yogi souls. Continue to serve them but remember that the atmosphere of sadhana and tapasya is also essential.

You now have to perform powerful tapasya everywhere, so that that tapasya can become an instrument for serving through the mind. You now have to do very powerful service through tapasya. It is now essential for you to receive touchings for service in your mind. Time is drawing to a close and so you must have a constant stage and a constantly powerful atmosphere. In order to become equal to the Father, you have to have the same speciality of an attitude of unlimited disinterest that you saw in Father Brahma. Until the last moment, He had no interest or attachment to either physical comforts or the children, but just maintained his attitude of disinterest. So, on this special day, make the lesson of becoming equal to the Father very firm. “I have to become equal to Father Brahma.” By having determination in your faith, you will definitely be able to make progress.

All of you children are probably that a prize is to be given today. However, not all the children from everywhere have arrived here yet. So, should it just be you who is given a prize. There is a prize, but BapDada says: A list had been created of all the bondages you had to become liberated from. How many bondages were there? (18). OK. Have you become liberated from all 18 bondages even in your dreams? When you don’t have any form of bondage, even in your dreams, you can be called liberated. You raise your hands very easily. Baba knows that if He were to ask you to raise your hands, the hands of many types of souls would be raised. Nevertheless, BapDada knows which children and how many there are who check themselves in a subtle way, and are thereby ready to raise their hands. You must now become more introverted and check yourself in an even more subtle way. You should check yourself like this: OK, I may not have made anyone unhappy, but did I accumulate anything in my account of happiness as much as I should have? I didn’t upset anyone, but did I make anyone happy? Although I didn’t have any waste thoughts, did I accumulate any elevated thoughts in their place? I maintained good wishes for everyone, but did I receive any response of those good wishes? Whether someone changed or not, did I remain content with that person? You must now check yourself in an even more subtle way like this and see whether you have passed. You should also check yourself in this way, and see whether the souls around you at your centre or subcentre give you a pass mark. What percentage did you attain as a result? How many did you make happy? How many were content with you? Did you make those who were upset happy? Or, did you just give happiness to those who were already happy? If, after checking yourself in all these things, you consider yourself to have passed with honour, then give your name to your teacher. The teachers should then have this all verified by the person in charge of that area and then pass it on to the one in charge of the zone. All the names should be collected by the one in­charge of the zone and then those names should be sent to Madhuban. Then you will receive a prize. Then you may applaud. Those who have passed with honour in this way will definitely receive a prize. You will receive that prize, but before you claim your prize, you must show your true chart to the true Father with an honest heart. Everyone’s thoughts reach BapDada. Out of those who raised their hands, BapDada saw that there was a mixed variety of souls. It would not be good if a mixed variety of souls, who raise their hands even without understanding, and are not given a prize by BapDada. This is why, if you have passed with honour, it is better to have a system so that you can be praised a great deal, and the names of such souls would become very well known in the Brahmin family. It is good. The majority of you have worked hard. You have been paying attention, but it is now a question of becoming complete. Instead of being given a prize, those of you who have made this effort are being congratulated today. You will receive a prize later. Is this OK? Is this clear? Achcha.

Secondly, those from all the different zones have to bring a mike here by March. All of you remember this, do you not? On the 1st March, BapDada will ask for this result from all the zones. He will ask: Who prepared a mike and of what quality? Perhaps you say that someone is a mike, but he might only be a small mike. If someone is a mike from a particular state, not even of that zone, then he would be called a small mike. So BapDada will ask what type of mike you have prepared. If someone from a particular zone is unable to come for the last meeting, you can send a short note. If they are able to come, then those from that zone are also invited. The heads of the zones are invited to come for this. If you they are unable to come, then you can send a short note. It will be OK if you just send a short note. If there is some reason why they can’t come, BapDada can arrange a programme to take place of such mikes in which all the mikes from all the different places can appear on the stage. There can be a special programme for them. Therefore, don’t think that you have to bring them here in March. Leave the mikes there, and you come! Those mikes will be invited with great splendour, and a very good welcoming programme can be arranged for them. We shall have a special programme for them. Then the first, second and third prizes will be given. Is this OK? Is this clear for all the different zones? You have to bring the result in March.

What have you remembered? What have you underlined? Unlimited disinterest! Now, rescue souls from their desires. The poor souls are very unhappy and distressed. Now be merciful, and spread the waves of mercy on them with your attitude of unlimited disinterest. All of you should now sit with the Father in Paramdham, the highest of all places, and give merciful drishti to all souls. Spread those vibrations. You are able to spread them, are you not? Now, just come and sit with the Father in Paramdham, and spread the atmosphere of unlimited mercy from there. Achcha.

To all the extremely loving children everywhere; to the elevated souls everywhere who are making spiritual endeavour; to all those who sang very lovely and sweet songs to BapDada throughout the day; to all those who had a heart­to­heart conversation with BapDada and filled their aprons with blessings of all powers and virtues. BapDada heard everyone’s songs: songs of happiness, songs of love, songs of spiritual intoxication. BapDada heard so many very sweet things from such children that they really touched His heart, that He became totally lost in listening to them whilst celebrating a meeting with them. Children who relate the truth from their heart, those who have an honest heart are great children, and they will constantly remain great. BapDada is giving multimillion­fold love in a return to such sweet children who constantly maintain an attitude of unlimited disinterest and whose intellect has faith filled with determination; to all those children who remain seated on the heart­throne of the Comforter of Hearts, love, remembrance and namaste.

Baba is also seeing those who are listening to Baba from outside. BapDada does not see the children as being far away, but He sees them everywhere as thought they are personally in front of Him. In return for the gifts and letters of remembrance you have sent, BapDada is giving you love, remembrances, congratulations. “Children, may you constantly fly in the flying stage and become prosperous and always remain prosperous!” Achcha.

Speaking to Dadiji: Today is called the day of remembrance, and so what did you remember all day? Did you remember the blessing of power? You have been willed this directly. You are playing a very good part. BapDada can see that there has been a lot of expansion, and that this is the proof of the service you have accomplished. BapDada is very pleased on seeing the service you children have done. Baba has become incognito, so whose name is now on everyone’s lips? It is now you children who are in front of everyone. They are all saying that the Brahma Kumaris are doing very good work. So, the children have now been revealed. Now, the Father has to be revealed. The Father first of all revealed you children. Once the Father is revealed, everything can be completed. This is why you children are revealed first, and why the Father is revealed afterwards. It is very good! The zeal and enthusiasm you have for service is very good. Now, spread a lot more waves that free souls from obstacles. When these waves are spread, everything will become easy.

Today, there was a lovely atmosphere everywhere. (All were merged in love.) Particular days have great importance. This day also has great importance. (Dadi Janki sent special love.) Achcha.
