¹A searchlight is the means to prepare the field of service.

²What three lines on each one's forehead is Baba looking at?

³Can you see your own lines?

⁴Just as three lines are shown in the image of the memorial of the Father, in the same way, what three lines are visible on the foreheads of the saligrams?

⁵Have you ever seen your forehead in the mirror?

⁶In which mirror have you seen it?

⁷On each one's forehead, one line and symbol is that of victory.

⁸The symbol of victory is a trident.

⁹A trident is a symbol of victory, that is, a symbol of success in your thoughts, words and deeds.

¹⁰A trident is also shown in the images of the Shaktis.

¹¹So, there is this trident which is a symbol of victory on each one's forehead.

¹²Another symbol on the line of the trident is a bindi (a dot).

¹³The third line is the long line under the trident. ¹⁴That is a symbol of having aclear line and of being careful; of being careful and alsoclear.

¹⁵There should not be any obstacles on the path.

¹⁶So, the third symbol is that of your moving constantly straight on the path.

¹⁷So Baba is seeing all the three lines and symbol on each one's forehead.

¹⁸You all have these lines, but they are clear on some and not as clear on others.

¹⁹So, have you seen your lines?

²⁰You have the trident, theclear line and also the bindi of the stage of soul consciousness.

²¹Devotees put a symbol of the tilak on their foreheads.

²²You do not need to put it on your forehead.

²³You can constantly recognise your stage through these lines on your forehead.

²⁴All three lines should be sharp and clear. ²⁵Only then will you be able to be an image that grants visions, that is, you will be able to make your task successful.

²⁶You are now going on service.

²⁷You have to start giving asearchlight to those souls from now. ²⁸Have you already started this, or are you going to start to do it when you get there?

²⁹The light from asearchlight reaches into the distance.

³⁰So you have to give thissearchlight from here.

³¹You can select the souls.

³²If you start this task here, then, when you arrive there, you will be able to see the visible proof.

³³Do you walk and move along whilst being asearchlight, or is it only when you sit down that you give a searchlight?

³⁴You have to carry out the task now of constantly being asearchlight and creating an atmosphere in all four directions so that, as soon as you get there, the souls who are going to come close can easily attain their fortune through the attraction of the atmosphere.

³⁵This is because you now have to show a thousandfold success in very little time.

³⁶Previously, it was a different time; there was more time used and less success attained, but you now have to makeplans whereby you attain a thousandfold success in very little time.

³⁷Before creating theplans, you have to become plain.

³⁸If you become plain, theplans will take a practical shape very well.

³⁹Only by your beingplain will the plans be carried out very well.

⁴⁰What plans must you have after becomingplain through which you can attain constant success?

⁴¹Baba is telling you this in just a few words so that you never forget.

⁴²Firstly, you have to remember that you are all united, that is, all of you are following the directions of One.

⁴³Secondly, through your words; you constantly have to remind yourself and others of the name of One.

⁴⁴Thirdly, there should beeconomy in your activity and in your actions.

⁴⁵There should not only beeconomy with money but also with your words. ⁴⁶There should also beeconomy with your thoughts and time.

⁴⁷So, there should be all types ofeconomy in your activities.

⁴⁸There should be all these three aspects: following the directions of One, constantly taking the name of One and havingeconomy.

⁴⁹Whilst taking every step and putting your thoughts into words, you must constantly keep all these three things in your consciousness.

⁵⁰Whenever there is any exchange, remember oneslogan at that time: A child and so a master.

⁵¹When you have to present your ideas, present them as a master, but when it is time for the ideas to befinalised, become a child.

⁵²Neither be just a master nor just a child.

⁵³At the time when you have to perform any particular action, at that time, you must have this stage, and when you serve other souls, always, as well, payattention to serving yourself.

⁵⁴To stabilise yourself in the stage of soul consciousness is to serve the self.

⁵⁵First of all, check whether you are also serving yourself.

⁵⁶If you are not serving yourself, there will not be success in serving others.

⁵⁷Therefore, just as you tell others that to remember the Father means to remember the self and that to remember the self means to remember the Father, in the same way, to serve others means to serve the self.

⁵⁸You must also keep this in your consciousness.

⁵⁹When you go to do anyservice, always think that, as well as doing that service, you are also carrying out the cremation ceremony of your old sanskars.

⁶⁰The more you carry out the cremation ceremony of the old sanskars, the more you will accordingly receive respect.

⁶¹All souls will salute you in their minds. ⁶²One is to salute physically with the hand, and the other is to salute with the mind.

⁶³They constantly sing praise in their minds, because just as one type of devotion is external, and the other is in the mind, so to salute externally is not a big thing.

⁶⁴However, they will salute you in their minds: they will sing praise of the Father being the One who has made you like this.

⁶⁵Secondly, when they hear your elevated ideas you will make them bow down for their determined ideas. ⁶⁶So that is like them saluting you, is it not?

⁶⁷You have to make effort so that others salute you in their minds.
