Avyakt murli for Sunday 12 November 1972

⁰> > Avyakt BapDada 12th November 1972

¹Have you become an avyakt image - that is, have you become an embodiment of the experience of a stable stage of being extremely loving and detached, whilst playing your part through that body? ²You are not one who is constantly trying to maintain a balance of being the master and the child, and playing the part; but you have easily become an embodiment of this, have you not?

³Or is it that when you become the master, you forget to be the child; and when you become the child, you forget to be the master? ⁴Be the master in one moment, and the child in the next.

⁵Can you be a karma yogi in one moment, and then - in the next moment - go beyond the body and action, and become a yogi merged in love?

⁶Have both your thoughts and actions become equal?

⁷Or is there a difference between your thoughts and your actions? ⁸Have you developed the practice of creating a thought, and instantly putting it into a practical form?

⁹Have you travellers of the pilgrimage of remembrance come that close? ¹⁰Do you experience both of these stages to be easy and close?

¹¹Having had many experiences on the pilgrimage of remembrance, have you become knowledge-full and powerful?

¹²On a pilgrimage, you have milestones every now and then, from which you can tell how far you have come, and how far you still have to go.

¹³So, too, how many milestones have you travellers of the pilgrimage of remembrance passed by?

¹⁴That is, how many stages of remembrance have you already passed? ¹⁵What is the last and final stage?

¹⁶Are you able to see and know it as clearly as when something is close in front of you - so that you are able to see it and recognise it? ¹⁷In the same way, are you able see and know your destination clearly and easily?

¹⁸Or is is still so far away that you cannot see it? ¹⁹Are you able to see it? ²⁰Or do you only know it? ²¹Or have you come so close in front of it, that it seems that you have reached your destination, and are experiencing it for a short while?

²²Do you have that experience? ²³Then why do you not stay in that experience?

²⁴Is it that you experience that stage, but that you do not know how to maintain that stage? ²⁵Why are you not able to maintain that stage constantly?

²⁶What is the reason? ²⁷Service or actions performed by Brahmins are called “alokik actions”.

²⁸Such alokik actions - or Godly service - can never become instrumental in bringing your stage down. ²⁹If a soul experiences coming down because of alokik actions, it means that that soul does not know the art of performing alokik actions.

³⁰Performers who show their talents in a circus, show their talents in every action - their every action is an art.

³¹In the same way, can you elevated souls - who are karma yogis, constant yogis, easy yogis, and Raja yogis - not perform every action with the art of being loving and detached?

³²Just as so many people desire to see the art of those people who use their physical bodies, so too the souls of the entire world will come with the desire to see the art of your intellects, and the art of your alokik actions. ³³So will you not show this talent?

³⁴Those people are able to mould every organ of their bodies as and how they wish, for as long as they wish: this is their art. ³⁵In the same way, can all of you not stabilise your intellects for as long as you want, wherever you want, when you want?

³⁶Theirs is a game of the physical body, whereas here it is a matter of the intellect. ³⁷Those who know this art become sixteen celestial degrees full. ³⁸With this art, you are automatically able to develop all the other arts.

³⁹Such a soul-conscious stage easily cools down all the vices.

⁴⁰In the same way, the art of the intellect can make you full of all virtues, that is, it can make you complete with all virtues. ⁴¹So, to what extent have you practised and experienced this art?

⁴²If all of you were to receive the direction now - to become bodiless in a second - would you be able to do this?

⁴³Are you able to stabilise yourself in this stage in a second? ⁴⁴At a time when you are very busy in performing actions, and you receive the direction, then what should you do?

⁴⁵It is also just as when a battle is about to begin, and you are given the order to leave your home at that very moment: what do you have to do then? ⁴⁶You definitely have to do that.

⁴⁷So, if BapDada suddenly gives you a direction to leave the home of your body - to leave the stage of body consciousness and to become soul conscious.. to go beyond this world to your sweet home - would you be able to do that?

⁴⁸You will not stop on the battlefield, will you? ⁴⁹You will not waste your time on the battlefield - wondering whether on should go or not - will you? “Will it be all right to go, or not?

⁵⁰Should I take this, or should I leave it behind?” You waste your time thinking about these things.

⁵¹In the same way, if you spend your time in battling when you have to become bodiless, then what marks will you get, or into which division will you go in the final paper?

⁵²If you remain battling, then will you go into the first division? ⁵³Have you gone beyond, and become ever-ready to this extent?

⁵⁴By doing service, your stage becomes even more powerful, because it is your elevated stage that will bring about the transformation of the circumstances of the present time.

⁵⁵So, what is your aim of doing service? ⁵⁶For what are you doing service?

⁵⁷You are doing service to bring about transformation of the circumstances, are you not?

⁵⁸If your stage remains ordinary whilst doing service, then is that service? ⁵⁹There are four main subjects of the pilgrimage of remembrance, through which you can check how far you have come.

⁶⁰Even now, some people have the stage that they had before: what is that stage?

⁶¹That of beingseparated (viyogi) . ⁶²The second stage is that they become combined(yogis) after being separated. ⁶³The third stage is that they becomeco- operative (sahyogi) after being yogis. ⁶⁴And, after being co-operative, the last stage is of being one who hasrenounced everything (sarva tyaagi) .

⁶⁵Whilst keeping all these four subjects in front of you, check how many steps you have climbed.

⁶⁶To what extent have you climbed up? ⁶⁷So, even now, you do not become separated(viyogi) again and again, do you?

⁶⁸Do you move along whilst being constantly combined(yogi) and co-operative?

⁶⁹If you have any obstacles, then to be influenced by the obstacles means to be separated(viyogi) .

⁷⁰So, you do not become separated, do you? ⁷¹Can obstacles finish the accurately-combined(yogyukt) stage? ⁷²That would make you forget having awareness of the Father.

⁷³To forget means to become separated. ⁷⁴So your stage of being combined(a yogi) should become constant.

⁷⁵Just as the soul and the body have a part together - so that they cannot be separated - in the same way, remembrance of the Father should not be separated from the intellect.

⁷⁶To have constant company in the intellect - that is, remembrance of the Father: such a soul is called “a yogi soul”.

⁷⁷Such souls are not attracted by any other awareness.

⁷⁸Just as those who have less pawer are not able to do anything in front of an elevated power, in the same way, if you have remembrance of the Almighty Authority, then there cannot be remembrance of anyone else in the intellect.

⁷⁹Such ones are called easy and natural yogis. ⁸⁰Those people just say this, but here youare natural yogis, in a practical way. ⁸¹So, have you become such yogis?

⁸²Such yogis are definitely co-operative in every thought, every word, and every deed, at every second.

⁸³If they are co-operative in their thoughts, but not in their deeds - or, if they are co-operative in their deeds, but not in any one situation - then such souls are not called “souls who have reached the stage of being co-operative”.

⁸⁴If even one thought passes by without co-operation, then that is said to be a wasteful thought. ⁸⁵Those who waste anything unnecessarily can never be co-operative with anyone, nor be powerful within themselves.

⁸⁶But souls who are co-operative and total renunciates - who easily renounce everything and everyone - are easily loved by all.

⁸⁷Since - even on the path of devotion - when people donate in the name of God, they attain a perishable royal status; then just think how elevated the attainment will be of those who use their every thought and every second co- operatively for Godly service.

⁸⁸Such souls easily become great donors who have renounced everything.

⁸⁹Such souls - who have renounced everything easily - become the most fortunate souls, at present and in the future. ⁹⁰Not only in the future, but when many souls see the elevated fortune of such souls at the present time, they sing the praise of their fortune from experiencing it.

⁹¹On the basis of their own elevated fortune, they become instruments to enable others to become fortunate.

⁹²So, just see which stage you have reached out of these four subjects - that is, how close you have come to your destination. ⁹³Achcha.

⁹⁴To such easy and natural yogi souls: love, remembrance, and namaste, from BapDada. ⁹⁵(personal meeting) ⁹⁶Because of this Brahmin life being the last birth, no matter how weak or ill you are physically - and whether you are able to move along or not - you have been given wings to fly with your mind.

⁹⁷You cannot move along with your body, but you can fly with your mind.

⁹⁸Because, BapDada knows that you have become weak from wandering around for 63 births.

⁹⁹The bodies have become impure, and so they have become weak and ill. ¹⁰⁰However, everyone’s mind is healthy.

¹⁰¹You may not be healthy physically but none of you are ill in your mind, are you? ¹⁰²Everyone’s mind is flying with their wings. ¹⁰³The sign of a powerful mind is that it is able to reach wherever it wants in a second. ¹⁰⁴Are you that powerful?

¹⁰⁵Or do you sometimes become weak? ¹⁰⁶Since the mind knows how to fly, and it has developed that practice, it can reach where it wants in a second. ¹⁰⁷One minute it is in the physical world, and the next minute it is in the supreme abode; because it has the speed of a second.

¹⁰⁸Do you have such a fast speed? ¹⁰⁹While constantly singing songs of your fortune, continue to fly.

¹¹⁰At amrit vela, constantly keep one or another new point in your awareness. ¹¹¹You have received many types of fortune and many types of attainments.

¹¹²Sometimes keep one attainment in front of you, and sometimes keep another type of attainment in front of you, and your efforts will be very entertaining.

¹¹³You will never get bored in your efforts, and you will experience newness.

¹¹⁴Otherwise, some children just keep on saying “I am a soul.. ¹¹⁵I am a child of Shiv Baba”, all the time.

¹¹⁶However, keep in your awareness all of the fortune, all the titles, all the treasures, and all the types of awareness, that the Father has given to you. ¹¹⁷Make a list of those. ¹¹⁸The list of the different types of awareness is so long. ¹¹⁹Sometimes, keep the treasures in your awareness, sometimes keep the powers in your awareness, sometimes the virtues, sometimes the knowledge, and sometimes the titles.

¹²⁰There is always entertainment in variety. ¹²¹Whenever there is an entertainment programme, there will be a variety of dances and a variety of food, and you will meet a variety of people. ¹²²For only then is there entertainment.

¹²³Is this not so?

¹²⁴So, here, too, keep a variety of things in your awareness in order to be entertained. ¹²⁵Achcha. ¹²⁶* * * O M S H A N T I * * *
