¹At the present time, in which stage of self­respect do you consider yourselves to be? ²Do you know your stage of self­respect?

³You know that it is the greatest stage of self­respect, but what is this stage of self­respect?

⁴What is the greatest self­respect of this time, and by speaking of this, it is visible that there can be no other self­respect greater than this?

⁵What is it? ⁶The greatest self­respect of this time is that you become the master of the Father.

⁷Before you become the masters of the world, you become the masters of the Creator of the world.

⁸You are even the masters of Shiv Baba. ⁹This is why they say, "Malekam Salaam" (Salutations to the master).

¹⁰Worthy children are even the masters of the Father.

¹¹At this time, you have made the Father belong to you.

¹²Throughout the entire kalpa, you cannot make the Father belong to you in this way.

¹³At present, you can make the Father belong to you when you want in whatever form you want.

¹⁴In which bondage is the Father tied at this time?

¹⁵(Of the children.)

¹⁶You are those who have tied the Creator in a bondage, the ones who have made the Creator into the Server.

¹⁷Will you experience suchself­ respect at any other time? ¹⁸You have made the Father into your Server, in order for Him to serve you.

¹⁹This is pure self­respect.

²⁰There is no arrogance in this.

²¹Where there is self­respect, there cannot be any arrogance.

²²You have made the Father into the Server, but there is no arrogance in this.

²³So, do you remain stable in the stage of pure self­respect and pride where there is no name or trace of arrogance?

²⁴Just as Baba always considers you children to be the crown on His head by saying, "Yes, child, sweet child, My childwho is the master of the world", in the same way, do you remain stable in the stage of being the crown on the head?Where is the top­knot of the Brahmins?

²⁵It is on the head, is it not?

²⁶So a Brahmin top­knot means the crown on theFather's head.

²⁷So, just as Baba always gives the children that respect and makes them equal to Himself, in the sameway, do all of you give respect to all souls and make them equal to the Father?

²⁸Does it constantly remain in yourintellect that, at this time, you have to take only from the one Father and give to everyone else?

²⁹You souls must nottake from souls, but give to them. ³⁰Simply take from the one Father.

³¹You have to give to others what you have taken.You are the bestowers, are you not?

³²Does this constantly remain in your awareness?

³³Or, do you have a desire toreceive from where you give?

³⁴If a soul keeps a desire to receive something from another soul, what attainment wouldthere be?

³⁵It would be temporary attainment.

³⁶From limited souls, there will be limited attainment.

³⁷From the unlimitedFather, there will be all attainments for all time.

³⁸So, are you taking from where you have to take and giving whereyou have to give?

³⁹Or, do you sometimes change this?

⁴⁰If a soul gives something to another, then it would only givethat which it had itself received from the Father, would it not?

⁴¹The slightest desire of taking from others makes youfall from your stage of self­respect.

⁴²When you become instruments to give souls the treasures you have received from the Father, what awareness do youhave at that time?

⁴³Does the soul have anything that belongs to itself?

⁴⁴You have made that which you have beengiven by the Father belong to you.

⁴⁵If, when you become instruments to give to others, you do not have the awarenessthat you are giving the treasures you have received from the Father, then you are not able to connect those souls in anelevated relationship.

⁴⁶Do you perform every action whilst staying in this awareness?

⁴⁷You should also have theintoxication of your elevated stage of self­respect.

⁴⁸Together with that, what else do you have?

⁴⁹(Happiness.)

⁵⁰Asmuch intoxication as you have in the intellect, there should be just as much humility in your actions.

⁵¹The sign of thisintoxication is that although you will have elevated intoxication, there will be humility in your actions.

⁵²There willalways be humility in your eyes, and, therefore, there will never be any loss or damage through the intoxication.

⁵³Doyou understand? ⁵⁴Do not just have intoxication.

⁵⁵On the one side, there should be a lot of intoxication but on the other side, there shouldbe great humility. ⁵⁶You were told that even the highest­on­high Father comes as the Server of the children. ⁵⁷So, that ishumility, is it not?

⁵⁸To the extent that you are great, so accordingly, there has to be that much humility.

⁵⁹Do you havethis balance? ⁶⁰Or, are you not able to think of anything else when you stay in this intoxication? ⁶¹Do you stay in theself­respect of the intoxication of being the masters of the Creator of the world.

⁶²Then what should be the duty ofthose who stay in such intoxication?

⁶³There cannot be world benefit without humility. ⁶⁴You made the Father belong toyou when with humility, He became the Server of you children.

⁶⁵In the same way, follow the Father.

⁶⁶At everymoment, check how many treasures you have received from the Father.

⁶⁷Do you know how many treasures you arethe masters of?

⁶⁸(Countless.) ⁶⁹However, you can speak of some of the main ones.

⁷⁰How many main treasures are thereat this confluence age?

⁷¹How many treasures have you received?

⁷²The greatest treasure is that you found the Father.This is the number one treasure, is it not?

⁷³When someone receives the key, it is as though he has found everything.Having found the Father, you have found everything.

⁷⁴What else have you found?

⁷⁵You also speak of this.

⁷⁶You havereceived the knowledge and also the eight powers.

⁷⁷If you speak of each power individually, then each power is atreasure.

⁷⁸In the same way, the virtues of the Father that you speak of can also be described as a treasure.

⁷⁹In the sameway, every second of the invaluable period of the confluence age is a treasure.

⁸⁰Just as you receive attainment fromthe treasures, in the same way, you can have an elevated attainment from every second of the confluence age.

⁸¹So, thistime of the confluence, that is, every second of the confluence age, is a treasure greater than multimillions.

⁸²If youwere to accumulate multimillions on the one side and, on the other side, you kept one second of the confluence age,then the second of the confluence age would be more elevated, because the attainment for all time is available in thisone second.

⁸³You can tell everyone that they can claim the inheritance of mukti and jeevanmukti in one second.Therefore, even one second is so valuable.

⁸⁴The time of the confluence age is also a huge treasure.

⁸⁵So, check to whatextent you have been able to imbibe within yourselves all these treasures.

⁸⁶Or, is it that you have imbibed sometreasures and not other treasures?

⁸⁷You are not missing out slightly on any of the treasures, are you?

⁸⁸You cannot bedeprived, but if you only attain a little, then too, you become part of the moon dynasty. ⁸⁹You cannot then be part ofthe sun dynasty.

⁹⁰To be in the sun dynasty means to be complete.

⁹¹If you are not complete in any aspect, then you arenot part of the sun dynasty.

⁹²If the soul is not complete, it cannot be called part of the sun dynasty. ⁹³So keep all thetreasures in front of yourself and check where you have reached.

⁹⁴How far have you reached? ⁹⁵It should not be thatyou become happy with only a little.

⁹⁶So, check all these treasures. ⁹⁷And, together with that, also check whether youhave become a great donor of all the treasures you have received or whether you have just kept them for yourself.Those who are great donors give whatever they have to others.

⁹⁸And, even then, they themselves do not becomebeggars, because whatever they give automatically increases within them. ⁹⁹So also check to what extent you havegiven the treasure of purity to all souls.

¹⁰⁰You also have to check your treasure of supersensuous happiness: do youkeep more for yourself or more for the service of the world?

¹⁰¹You have attained it for yourself, but the present stage isfor using it for world service.

¹⁰²So check to what extent you have used all the treasures for yourself and to what extentyou use them for others.

¹⁰³This is called the complete stage.

¹⁰⁴Have you used all the treasures for others?

¹⁰⁵If you use thetreasures of knowledge and the powers for your own effort, then that too is not called the complete stage.

¹⁰⁶Now is thetime to use all these for others.

¹⁰⁷If, even now, you continue to use all powers for your own self, then when would youbecome a great donor and one who grants blessings to others?

¹⁰⁸Now practise in such a way that you do not have to usethem for your own self.

¹⁰⁹If you continue to use all your treasures for others, would you become empty?

¹¹⁰Just as the father also gave the time of his own rest, which was essential for his own body, and used it for the sake ofworld benefit, in the same way, all the powers should be used for world benefit, not for your own self.

¹¹¹Wheneveryone has to become equal to the father, they would also adopt the stage equal to that of the father, would theynot?

¹¹²Only when you begin to give to others will you begin to experience yourselves to be complete in all aspects.

¹¹³Inteaching others, you automatically teach yourselves.

¹¹⁴At present, you take double the time; a separate time foryourself and a separate time for others.

¹¹⁵Now, do double the work in the same time, because there is very little timeleft.

¹¹⁶When there is little time, people study a double course, and so this is the same.

¹¹⁷Time is coming close.

¹¹⁸So,together with giving to others, accumulate for your own self; do not just use it for your own self.

¹¹⁹If, even now, youcontinue to use it for yourself and continue to waste time, you cannot become world emperors.

¹²⁰You have the aim ofbecoming world emperors, do you not?

¹²¹When the Ganges of knowledge emerged in the beginning, what was the speciality of service at that time?

¹²²What isthe difference between the heirs who emerged at that time and the souls who have emerged at this time?

¹²³A lot ofservice is taking place now, but there aren't as many heirs visible.

¹²⁴What is the reason for this? ¹²⁵There is a lot ofexpansion, so what is the main reason?

¹²⁶At that time, they did not have the feeling of "mine", but the feeling that theyhad to give everything of theirs for world benefit.

¹²⁷They belonged to One (ekname) and they had economy.

¹²⁸Theywere economical with all the treasures; they never wasted anything.

¹²⁹The time and powers they had received had to begiven to others, that is, they had the stage of being great donors, because they were special instruments.

¹³⁰Look at howmuch difference there is in the stage of that time and that of the present time!

¹³¹Now, first of all, some think of theirown facilities and then facilities of service. ¹³²That is, they first think of their own comfort and facilities and then theneed of service.

¹³³In the beginning, they first thought of service and then, whether they received facilities or not, itdidn't matter.

¹³⁴They didn't have the slightest thought that they could only do service if there were the facilitiesavailable.

¹³⁵They did not have the thoughts: We can do service only if we have the facilities; we can do service only ifwe have a companion; we can do service only if the situation is right.

¹³⁶Wherever you go, whatever the situation is andwhatever facilities are provided, you have to increase service with your own power of tolerance.

¹³⁷This is the stage ofbeing a great donor.

¹³⁸The fortune of others is created through renunciation of the self.

¹³⁹Where there is no renunciationof the self, the fortune of others cannot be created.

¹⁴⁰The father renounced everything for himself, and this is how yourfortune was created.

¹⁴¹So, in their stage, they renounced all the luxuries for the self, and it was through this that fortunewas created.

¹⁴²Are you making as much fortune for others as you have renunciation for the self?

¹⁴³This is why the heirsare hidden.
