¹What would you call today’s Gathering? ²Is it a gathering of Gujurat?

³You do not consider yourselves to be those of Gujarat do you?

⁴Just as the Father is the Master of the Unlimited, in the same way - wherever you may be an instrument for - you are still world benefactors.

⁵Do you constantly have the feeling of bringing benefit to the world in your visions and attitude - that is, in your consciousness? ⁶Or do you have the feeling of bringing benefit to Gujurat?

⁷Whilst living in Gujurat, you still have the feeling of bringing benefit to the world, do you not?

⁸You are on unlimited service, are you not?

⁹This is just a duty which you are given, which you are fulfilling as instruments.

¹⁰However, what intoxication do you have?

¹¹You say that you are world benefactors - that it is your duty to bring about world transformation.

¹²Whatever service you do - or whatever facilities for service you create - the words you use for that are for the world.

¹³You are those who are renewing the world.

¹⁴The world is being transformed.

¹⁵A sound may be created in one place, but it spreads everywhere.

¹⁶Although the sound may be made in just one place, it still spreads everywhere.

¹⁷So, in order to become world benefactors, two main dharnas are essential - through which you can become benefactors whilst living in the limited.

¹⁸If you do not have these dharnas, then, neither your sound nor your vision reach the unlimited world.

¹⁹What are the two dhamas needed in order to become world benefactors?

²⁰On the basis of what two dharnas are you carrying out the task of bringing benefit to the world?

²¹You definitely receive the instant fruit of the pure feeling you have for world benefit.

²²You receive the fruit of your feelings even on the path of devotion. but that is for a temporary period, whereas here it is for all time.

²³So, what two main dharnas are needed for the attainment of instant fruit?

²⁴There cannot be progress for the self - or for service - without having any dharna.

²⁵You are doing that, and you have to do that.

²⁶There aren’t even the words “I will do it”.

²⁷You have to do it.

²⁸The two main dharnas are: spiritualintoxication, and mercy.

²⁹If you have both spiritual intoxication and mercy, simultaneously and to the same extent, then - by having a balance of both of these qualities - you create a stage of spirituality.

³⁰This is called “spirituality”, or “a spiritual stage”.

³¹You should have full intoxication, and full mercy.

³²At present you leave aside intoxication, and simply have mercy; or you leave aside mercy, and simply have spiritual intoxication. ³³This is why you are lacking in the stage of spirituality which would be created through being equal in both of these qualities.

³⁴Therefore, before you carry out any task - or before you speak any words - check whether you have intoxication and mercy to an equal extent.

³⁵By having both to an equal extent, you will be able to maintain your own self-respect, and you will also receive respect from all souls.

³⁶If you leave aside self-respect, and have a desire to receive regard, then you do not receive success.

³⁷But if you renounce the desire to receive respect, and stabilise yourself in the stage of self-respect, then respect follows you like a shadow.

³⁸Just as devotees run around so much behind their deities and goddesses out of blind faith, in the same way, all souls will run behind the souls who are stabilised in their stage of self-respect in the living form, in order to give them regard.

³⁹Have you seen the running around of the devotees?

⁴⁰In the non-living images of the memorials of all of you, artists portray these main dharnas: on the one hand, they show the spiritual intoxication of the Shaktis with full force, and together with that they also show their mercy.

⁴¹They portray both these feelings in the same image.

⁴²Why is this created?

⁴³Because you became embodiments of spiritual intoxication and mercy in a practical way.

⁴⁴Therefore, they portray these main dhamas even in the non-living images.

⁴⁵All of you are now on service, and the instant fruit of service is based on these two main dharnas.

⁴⁶You definitely do have to become merciful, but on what basis and when?

⁴⁷This has to be seen.

⁴⁸You definitely do have to have spiritual intoxication, but how and in what way do you have to reveal it? ⁴⁹This too has to be seen.

⁵⁰Spiritual intoxication does not become visible through speaking about it, or through trying to show it. ⁵¹Spiritual intoxication reveals itself through your eyes and your features.

⁵²If you speak about spiritual intoxication, it changes and become bossiness.

⁵³You must not show bossiness, but must stay in your intoxication.

⁵⁴Bossiness is said to be the progeny of ego and anger.

⁵⁵This is why you must not show bossiness, but should stay in spiritual intoxication.

⁵⁶The more you stay in spiritual intoxication as well being merciful, the more your bossiness will finish.

⁵⁷No matter what type of soul someone may be - even if that soul shows bossiness - when you have your own intoxication and are merciful, then that soul will no longer be bossy.

⁵⁸It shouldn’t be that you say that the circumstances were such, or that that person spoke such words that you had to do this.. or that you will have to do this.. or that this will continue to happen because you have not yet become complete. ⁵⁹There shouldn’t be these words or this language in this gathering.

⁶⁰Because, you are instruments for service, and therefore this gathering is called that of those who are master knowledge-full, serviceable, and successful.

⁶¹Those who are successful do not make excuses.

⁶²Instead, they transform excuses into solutions.

⁶³They do not put excuses in front of them.

⁶⁴Can souls who are master knowledge-full and successful not be successful over excuses?

⁶⁵Those who are master knowledge-full and successful will change excuses into solutions, with the power of their knowledge, and the excuses will then finish.

⁶⁶Those who are instruments have to pay special attention to their every thought, because everyone’s vision is on those souls who are instruments.
