Avyakt murli for Friday 24 October 1975 - 1

⁰> > 08/07/96 Om Shanti Avyakt BapDada Madhuban 24/10/75 ¹Each mouth­born Brahmin is the temple of the living saligram. ²Do you experience yourselves to be like lotus flowersः extremely detached and loving to the Father? ³Firstly, becauseof being light, a lotus floats on water and yet remains detached from the water; whilst having a family, it is able toremain isolated from the family.

⁴In the same way, whilst living in a lokik or an alokik household, do you remainisolated, that is, detached?

⁵In order to remain isolated, especially check your attitude. ⁶As is your attitude, so is yourhousehold.

⁷Which type of attitude should you have? ⁸A soul­conscious and spiritual attitude. ⁹Through this attitude,you will be able to bring about spirituality within your family, that is, because of having spirituality within the family,you will continue to move along whilst considering everything to have been entrusted to you.

¹⁰Then, through this, theconsciousness of "mine" will easily finish. ¹¹You cannot have the consciousness of "mine" for something entrusted toyou. ¹²Due to the consciousness of "mine" there is attachment and the interference of other vices.

¹³To finish theconsciousness of "mine" means to become free from the vices; viceless means to become pure through which thefamily will become a pure household. ¹⁴To destroy all vices means to become elevated.

¹⁵So, do you consider yourselfto be an elevated soul who has destroyed all vices?

¹⁶Have you made your household a pure household?

¹⁷The first household is of your body.

¹⁸Next is the household ofbodily relations.

¹⁹So, you have to make the first household, the physical organs of the body, pure. ²⁰Unless you makethe household of the body pure, you will not be able to make the household of bodily relations, whether limited orunlimited, pure.

²¹Which is the household of the Brahma Kumars and Kumaris?

²²Just as there is the household oflimited relations, in the same way, in terms of being Brahma Kumars and Kumaris, you have the relationship of beingcorporeal brothers and sisters with all the souls of the entire world. ²³You have such a huge, unlimited family!However, you first have to purify the household of your body; only then will you be able to make the unlimitedhousehold pure. ²⁴It is saidः Charity begins at home. ²⁵That is, first of all, do the service of making your home, that is,your body, pure and then you can do unlimited service.

²⁶So, first of all, ask yourselfः Have I made the home of mybody pure? ²⁷Have I made my thoughts, intellect, eyes and lips spiritual and pure?

²⁸Just as on Deepawali, they cleanevery corner of the home, and pay so much attention that not a single corner is left unclean, in the same way, haveyou cleansed every physical organ and lit the light of the soul for all time? ²⁹Have you celebrated such a Deepawali ordo you still have to do this?

³⁰Everyone's light is sparkling constantly, is it not? ³¹It is said that every home will becomea temple.

³²In the same way, have you made the home of your body into a temple? ³³However many Brahmins there are, each Brahmin is the temple of the living saligram.

³⁴Each one is the temple of theliving spark. ³⁵Have you made it pure considering it to be a temple?

³⁶According to the present time of making effortand according to the time of complete transformation of the world, you should not be influenced by matter or anyvice.

³⁷Just as evil spirits do not enter a temple, so have you made every home into a temple? ³⁸Impurity and vices enterwhere there is uncleanliness.

³⁹Devilish thoughts or devilish sanskars cannot enter the temple of the living saligram,the temple of the living embodiment of power, the temple of one who destroys evil. ⁴⁰If they do enter, then there mustbe one or another type of uncleanliness or impurity.

⁴¹So check yourself. ⁴²If there is any type of uncleanlinessanywhere, then finish that and celebrate the true Deepawali.

⁴³When you make your household pure in this way, worldtransformation will take place. ⁴⁴You come to Madhuban for a spiritual pilgrimage. ⁴⁵And so, when you return from a spiritual pilgrimage you have toleave your weaknesses behind. ⁴⁶Madhuban is the land of transformation.

⁴⁷Having come to the land of transformation, if you do not bring about any transformation, then what benefit would youhave taken from the land of transformation? ⁴⁸You mustn't bring about transformation for just the time that you are inthe land of transformation, but there has to be permanent transformation. ⁴⁹Madhuban is called the great yagya, thesacrificial fire in which the horse is sacrificed; generally, something is sacrificed in a sacrificial fire. ⁵⁰Do you offer thegreatest sacrifice in the great sacrificial fire, or do you take back whatever you have sacrificed?

⁵¹Do you also performthe task according to the name or not? ⁵²It is called the great sacrificial fire, the land of transformation, the land ofblessings. ⁵³Therefore, perform the tasks according to the name.

⁵⁴Continue to fulfil the promise that you make here.Or, do you find it difficult to fulfil it? ⁵⁵Souls who fulfil a promise come into three categories. ⁵⁶Some are like the truemoths in fulfilling a promiseः they surrender themselves completely to the Father, that is, they sacrifice themselves inorder to fulfil the orders they have received. ⁵⁷The next type become like bhagats in fulfilling their promise, that is,they repeatedly take power from the Father, that is, they continually ask for powerः "Give me power to tolerate andthen I will be able to fulfil my promise."

⁵⁸"Give me power to face and then I will be able to fulfil my promise." ⁵⁹Theycontinue to beg in this way, that is, they become bhagats.

⁶⁰The third type of souls become cheats. ⁶¹They say and writeone thing and yet they cheat. ⁶²There are also such cheats.

⁶³Some do not have any power to fulfil their promise.However, in order to protect themselves, they make excuses. ⁶⁴They hide their own weaknesses and make excusesabout others. ⁶⁵"This relation is like this and therefore, this happened." ⁶⁶Or, "The atmosphere and the environment waslike this and that is why this happened."

⁶⁷"It happened according to the circumstances." ⁶⁸They all say the same thingःMine is the one Father and none other, and whatever you say and make me do, I will do just that. ⁶⁹But, there are manydifferent categories of those who actually do it and put it into practice. ⁷⁰Therefore, whatever you have done up to now,considering yourselves to be ordinary, let the past be the past, that is, have mercy upon yourself.

⁷¹Know very clearlythe importance of this land. ⁷²Do not consider this land to be ordinary.

⁷³You come to the great place in order to makeyourselves so great.

⁷⁴To become great means to know the importance. ⁷⁵Do you understand? ⁷⁶To those who transform themselves according to the time; to those who are instruments for world transformation; tothose who fulfil the responsibility of love for the Father; to those who have made the Father their constant Companionand who constantly remain as detached as a lotus flower; to such constantly loving children, love, remembrance andnamaste from BapDada. ⁷⁷Personal meeting with sisters from Punjabः

⁷⁸The special virtue remembered of Shaktis is that of being fearless. ⁷⁹Do you experience yourselves to be this? ⁸⁰Not justto be fearless of human souls, but also fearless of any attack of Maya.

⁸¹Those who are not afraid of Maya are calledShaktis. ⁸²You are not afraid of Maya, are you? ⁸³Those who have fear are defeated, whereas those who are fearless areable to make Maya afraid of them. ⁸⁴Because of fear, you lose power and your understanding.

⁸⁵Generally, when peopleare afraid, they lose consciousness; they even lose their understanding. ⁸⁶Here too, those who are afraid of Maya losetheir understanding, and they are therefore not able to conquer Maya. ⁸⁷So, because your name is the Shakti Army andsince you have the speciality of being Shaktis, then fearlessness should be visible practically, for only then would yoube called Shaktis.

⁸⁸If there is any type of fear, you cannot be called Shaktis. ⁸⁹Weak ones are always dependent onothers; they never have all rights.

⁹⁰You are those who have all rights, are you not? ⁹¹You will not become dependentbecause of fear, will you? ⁹²So, is the Shakti Army of Punjab so fearless? ⁹³Ever since you became Brahmins, you have been issuing a challenge to Mayaः Come Maya!

⁹⁴Come and attack asmuch as you want! ⁹⁵I am a Shiv Shakti. ⁹⁶You come under the influence of Maya because of your own weakness.

⁹⁷Where there are weaknesses, it is there that Maya exists. ⁹⁸Just as where there is rubbish, mosquitoes come, in the sameway, where there are weaknesses, that is where Maya comes.

⁹⁹So, to become weak means to invoke Maya. ¹⁰⁰Youyourselves invoke Maya and then you become afraid of her.

¹⁰¹So then, why do you invoke her? ¹⁰²Always have theintoxication that you are the Shiv Shakti Army. ¹⁰³You became victorious over Maya a kalpa ago also. ¹⁰⁴You are, evennow, repeating that part once again.

¹⁰⁵How many times have you been victorious?

¹⁰⁶One who has been victorious manytimes would be so fearless! ¹⁰⁷Would such a soul be afraid? ¹⁰⁸Which drums have the Shaktis been beating to reveal theFather?

¹⁰⁹In order to awaken Kumbhakarna, beat huge drums. ¹¹⁰When you beat small drums, Kumbhakarna just turnsover to the other side.

¹¹¹That is, others say that this is good, but they then just go back to sleep. ¹¹²So, for them, you willnot be able to do anything with small drums.

¹¹³This is why you have to increase contact with them again and again. ¹¹⁴Itis not their fault that they are in deep sleep.

¹¹⁵Your duty is to make a special programme and awaken them.

¹¹⁶Personal meeting with brothers from Punjabः ¹¹⁷As is the place, so by having awareness of that place, you receive strength in your stage.

¹¹⁸In the same way, byconsidering yourself to be a resident of Madhuban, you are automatically able to create the stage of an angel.

¹¹⁹Anangel is one who doesn't have any relationship with the body.

¹²⁰So, you forget all the relationships of the body here.Are you able to experience this stage for even a short time? ¹²¹Every now and then, it is very difficult to come toMadhuban, yet why do you come again and again? ¹²²Because whatever you experience here, it gives strength to yourawareness when you get back, and so, it is necessary to come to Madhuban. ¹²³Your staying with the family back thereis also for service.

¹²⁴If you consider it to be your home, you will be a householder, whereas if you consider yourself tobe a server, you will be a trustee.

¹²⁵Karmic bondages from all directions will pull a householder. ¹²⁶If you consideryourself to be a server, then with your awareness of being a trustee, all consciousness of "mine" will be finished. ¹²⁷Ahouseholder always has the consciousness of "mine".
