¹The effort to become a maharathi ²Do you know how to do spiritual drill?

³What do you have to do in drill? ⁴Drill means to bend your body as you wish, and spiritual drill means to stabilise the spirit in the stage you want when you want, that is, to be able to stabilise yourself in the stage you want to.

⁵That is called spiritual drill. ⁶An army does exactly what a marshall or drill-master signals them to do.

⁷In the same way, you yourself should be the master or marshall and stabilise yourself in the stage you want to be in.

⁸Have you become your own drill-master in this way?

⁹It shouldn't be that the master says, “Hands down”!, and the students put their hands up, or the marshall says, “Right” and the soldiers turn left.

¹⁰What would happen to such students or soldiers?

¹¹They would be dismissed. ¹²So, here, you dismiss yourselves from your own right.

¹³You should have such practice that you can stabilise your stage wherever you want in one second, because you are now on the battlefield.

¹⁴On a battlefield, if the army does not put a direction into practice in one second, what are they called?

¹⁵What would you call soldiers who take time to stabilise themselves in a particular stage on this spiritual battlefield?

¹⁶Today BapDada is observing maharathi children who are effort-makers.

¹⁷Those who consider themselves to be maharathis, raise your hand! ¹⁸(A few raised their hand.) ¹⁹What do those who are not maharathis consider themselves to be?

²⁰Those who consider themselves to be the cavalry, raise your hand!

²¹BapDada is putting this question to those who didn't raise their hand to being a maharathi.

²²Do you consider yourselves to be BapDada's heirs?

²³Do those who consider themselves to be the cavalry consider themselves to be heirs?

²⁴Do the heirs wish to claim the full right or not?

²⁵Since you have the aim of claiming the full inheritance, why should you be the cavalry?

²⁶If you are the cavalry, do you know what number you will claim?

²⁷Where would those in the second grade come? ²⁸Even after receiving so much sustenance, you would claim the second grade!

²⁹If you have been a second-grade effort-maker over a long period of time, you will receive the second grade inheritance for a long period of time, and you will only have the experience of the first grade for a short time.

³⁰You are those who call yourselves children of the Almighty Authority Father, those who have taken sustenance from the corporeal form and the avyakt form, and yet, second grade!

³¹It doesn't even seem right to say this in words.

³²Or else, from today, you should not call yourselves children of the Almighty Authority.

³³Instead of calling them children, do you know what BapDada calls children who are engaged in making such effort?

³⁴Not children (bachche), but weak ones (kachche).

³⁵To make such effort even now is not worthy of the self-respect of the children.

³⁶That is why BapDada says: Even now, let the past be the past.

³⁷Change yourselves from this moment.

³⁸In order to become a maharathi, simply remember two things.

³⁹What are they?

⁴⁰Firstly, constantly keep yourself with your Companion.

⁴¹Those who are companions and co-charioteers are maharathis.

⁴²There are two reasons for weakness in effort.

⁴³You have love for the Father, but you have not made Him your Companion.

⁴⁴If you constantly keep BapDada as your Companion, then as long as you have BapDada’s company, Maya becomes unconscious even from a distance.

⁴⁵Because you only make BapDada your Companion for a temporary period, you are not able to attain sufficient power.

⁴⁶If you were constantly with BapDada, you would constantly remain lost in celebrating a meeting with BapDada with deep love; and those who are lost in deep love cannot have their love directed anywhere else.

⁴⁷What was the promise that children made to the Father in the beginning?

⁴⁸I eat with You, I sit with You, I entertain myself with You.

⁴⁹You forget this promise that you made.

⁵⁰If, throughout the day, you carry out every task with the Father, would Maya be able to disturb you?

⁵¹If you are with the Father, instead of Maya disturbing you, there would be the destruction of Maya.

⁵²So, though you have love for the Father, you have not made Him your Companion.

⁵³You have taken Baba's hand, but you have not taken His company. ⁵⁴This is why you become knocked out by Maya.

⁵⁵The reason for mistakes is carelessness.

⁵⁶Carelessness makes you make mistakes.

⁵⁷If you do not look at the spirit (ruh) but are instead attracted to the form (rup), then you must understand that you have love for a corpse.

⁵⁸Those who have love for a corpse should understand that their future work will be in a cemetery.

⁵⁹Whenever you have any such thought, you should consider your part to be in a cemetery.

⁶⁰You tell everyone to keep their aim and object in front of them.

⁶¹So, whatever tasks you carry out, whatever thoughts you have, you must keep the aim and the attainment, that is, the aim and the objective, in front of you.

⁶²You have come to claim your inheritance of this part from the Almighty Authority Father for every cycle.

⁶³Ask yourselves whether you, those who bring the dead back to life, have come to fix your part in the cemetery.

⁶⁴Any children who place their mistakes in front of the Father once should understand this: If after placing those weaknesses in front of the Father you make the same mistake again, then, although Baba is the Ocean of Mercy, according to the drama you also automatically receive one hundredfold punishment. ⁶⁵In order to save yourself from one hundred-fold punishment, constantly keep BapDada in front of you.

⁶⁶Continue to follow BapDada at each step. ⁶⁷Verify each thought and each action through the avyakt form with avyakt power.

⁶⁸When you have the company of a corporeal form, everything is put into a practical form after you have had it verified.

⁶⁹In the same way, always keep BapDada in front of you, or with you, in the avyakt form, and then by verifying each thought and each action before putting it into the practical form, there will not be any wasteful or sinful actions.

⁷⁰Whenever you listen to anything, do not just hear the words, but understand their significance.
