¹The way to defeat Maya is to use your power of churning.

²Today, BapDada was looking at the various ways in which you children make effort. ³He was seeing your zeal, enthusiasm and love for a meeting.

⁴He was seeing your devotion in constant co­operation in any task, and the effort you make to break away from everyone else and forge all relationships with One alone. ⁵On seeing all of this effort, BapDada was pleased with you children, but as well as feeling love for your children, He also felt mercy for you. ⁶All of you are very busy in making effort to attain your aim according to your capacity. ⁷You all have the same desire of going fast and coming first.

⁸Day and night, you do everything with just this one concern.

⁹However, although you all have the same aim, and you all have love for One and keep the companionship of One, some of you are mahavirs whereas others have to work very hard for everything. ¹⁰Some are easy effort­makers whereas others are effort­making yogis. ¹¹Some are an embodiment of all attainments whereas others remain very busy in trying to attain everything.

¹²Some are conquerors of Maya whereas others are still busy in trying to overcome the obstacles of Maya. ¹³The sound coming from the minds of some is that they have attained everything, whereas the sound coming from the minds of others is that they are still trying to attain whatever it is they need.

¹⁴Some experience Baba’s constant company whereas others are still trying to make Baba their constant Companion.

¹⁵On seeing all of this, BapDada felt mercy for those of you who are labouring. ¹⁶Why should the One Father have two types of you children?

¹⁷For how much longer are you going to labour?

¹⁸You have received this blessed, spiritual birth from Baba, the Bestower of Blessings. ¹⁹If, instead of constantly enjoying this birth, you are still spending it in labouring, then when do you think you are going to receive such a birth again?

²⁰Every second of this blessed birth is a beautiful moment for you to attain all attainments.

²¹So, instead of using such moments, do you still like to remain busy labouring?

²²Or is it that you don’t want to do this, but it just happens?

²³Today, BapDada saw the special reason why this happens.

²⁴Even though you don’t want this to happen, the main reason why it does is that you become influenced. ²⁵What influences you? ²⁶You know this very well.

²⁷Although you know this and even try to stop yourself from doing it, you still get caught up by it. ²⁸This is because Maya comes in the form of janijananhar (one who knows all secrets). ²⁹She knows that the main support of all of you Brahmin souls is the yoga of your intellect. ³⁰She knows that it is only when your intellect is divine that you can enjoy having a meeting with the Father.

³¹So, first of all, she attacks your intellect and makes it weak.

³²How does she do this? ³³The special arrow of Maya is that of waste thoughts.

³⁴She uses this arrow to make your intellect weak. ³⁵Then, because it is weak, it is easily influenced.

³⁶When you are weak, you are unable to do what you want. ³⁷So, even though you want to do something, you are unable to do it.

³⁸The reason for this is that you don’t use the power that you have received from the Almighty Authority.

³⁹The special power is the power of churning.

⁴⁰You don’t know how to use the power to churn.

⁴¹The power to churn is nourishment to keep your intellect divine.

⁴²When you don’t have proper nourishment, you become weak.

⁴³Then, because you are weak, you become influenced.

⁴⁴The result of the power to churn is vast, but you don’t know the right method.

⁴⁵From the moment you received your Brahmin birth from Baba, you also received very many titles. ⁴⁶If these were to be listed, they would make a very big rosary. ⁴⁷You had the practice of remembering these even on the path of bhakti. ⁴⁸Bhagats remember these whilst turning each bead.

⁴⁹On the path of bhakti, you had the power to remember and on the path of gyan, you have the power of awareness.

⁵⁰Since bhagat souls don’t forget their power, and are able to attain temporary success through temporary methods, why do you knowledgeable souls forget the way to use your power of awareness?

⁵¹If you were to become aware of even one of your titles at amrit vela, and to continue to churn it, then by using this power of churning, your intellect would remain constantly powerful.

⁵²Maya cannot attack a powerful intellect, so your intellect would not become influenced.

⁵³That is the main reason why your intellect becomes weak. ⁵⁴Therefore, the way to cure it is to increase your power of churning.

⁵⁵Nowadays, eminent and educated people change their dress according to the duty they have to carry out and the place they are in. ⁵⁶People even change the costume of your non­living idols.

⁵⁷Even in your future deity form, you will have a different dress for a different task.

⁵⁸This sanskar of your future is based on your present. ⁵⁹The fashion of the present time will continue in the future golden age; it will also continue in your non­living idols. ⁶⁰What is the custom and system of the confluence age?

⁶¹It is to remember your title according to the task you are carrying out. ⁶²Brahmins of the confluence age are the most fashionable.

⁶³They dress according to the time; your form is your appearance.

⁶⁴As is your awareness, so is your attitude and thus your vision and stage.

⁶⁵It becomes your form. ⁶⁶The fashion nowadays is for your jewellery to match your dress; for the colour of your tilak and eye make­up to match it also.

⁶⁷So, you Brahmins are the most fashionable.

⁶⁸Therefore, now create such an awareness, attitude and vision.

⁶⁹Your awareness is your tilak, your vision is your eye­make­up and your attitude is your general make­up.

⁷⁰Your attitude should be able to bring about whatever type of transformation you want.

⁷¹So, you are the constantly decorated spiritual images who are transforming the world.

⁷²To have the power to churn means to remain aware of your titles; all of your forms; to remain aware of the decorations of all your virtues; to remain aware of all the points of happiness; to remain aware of all the points of spiritual intoxication; for your intellect to remain aware of the points of the Father, the Creator; for your intellect to remember the detailed knowledge about creation.

⁷³Keep all the many points that you have experienced and attained through remembrance in your consciousness. ⁷⁴Therefore, the method of increasing the power to churn is so vast!

⁷⁵You can churn whatever you want; you can choose whatever you like. ⁷⁶Then, whilst churning, you will easily be able to remain in the stage of being totally absorbed in Baba’s love.

⁷⁷Then, instead of being influenced, you will always have with you the mantra that disciplines your mind and thus defeat Maya.

⁷⁸Maya will surrender to you for all time.

⁷⁹Your first devotee of the confluence age will be Maya.

⁸⁰Only when you become a master god will she become your devotee.

⁸¹If your yourself are just a devotee, then whose devotee could Maya become?

⁸²So, will you become a devotee or a master God?

⁸³You have been told that the easy method to attain this is to increase your power to churn. ⁸⁴Do you understand? ⁸⁵Do those from the zones of Bengal and Bihar know how to decorate themselves?

⁸⁶Just as you people know how to decorate the goddesses a lot, and you also know how to dress your non­ living idols, do you know how to decorate yourselves in the same way?

⁸⁷This zone has this speciality which the Father loves very much. ⁸⁸There are many such children. ⁸⁹Who are they?

⁹⁰They are the poor and innocent children of the Lord of Innocence; both types of children are very much loved by the Father. ⁹¹This is why the group from this zone is very large. ⁹²This zone has this speciality. ⁹³There are so many different states within this zone.

⁹⁴Nepal and Assam are also included in this.

⁹⁵This is a bouquet of many varieties of flowers.

⁹⁶Service is growing. ⁹⁷You found the corporeal one there. ⁹⁸So, that place is special, isn’t it? ⁹⁹When the Government finds something special in a particular place, it makes that place important, and then that place becomes very famous.

¹⁰⁰It becomes part of history. ¹⁰¹Similarly, your place is also a special place in the history of the father.

¹⁰²Later on, the importance of that place will be important to the whole world. ¹⁰³Just as Delhi has its own speciality and Bombay has its own, so too, that place will also have a huge importance of its own. ¹⁰⁴This is why, as you progress, that place will be known as an even more special place than it is known as today.

¹⁰⁵You souls who live at that special place are also special.

¹⁰⁶Together with that place, everyone will also speak of the fortune of all of you souls.

¹⁰⁷Achcha.

¹⁰⁸To those who are constantly stable in their powerful form and make Maya their devotee; to those who are constantly decorated; to those who control Maya with the mantra that disciplines the mind; to those who remain powerful by having constant awareness; to the almighty souls, BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste.

¹⁰⁹BapDada meeting groups:

¹¹⁰ 1. By making your every thought and deed equal to the Father’s, you will attain the stage of a constant and easy yogi. ¹¹¹The most elevated place of the confluence age is the Father’s heart­throne. ¹¹²Those who sit on this throne claim a right to the throne of the world.

¹¹³Just as the Father is ever­worthy of being worshipped, so you children will also become worthy of being worshipped, because only those who are equal to Baba would be merged in His heart. ¹¹⁴So, you souls are equal to the Father and are following Him, are you not? ¹¹⁵Do you experience the Father’s consciousness to be your consciousness, the Father’s virtues to be your virtues, and the Father’s task to be your task?

¹¹⁶This is known as following the Father.

¹¹⁷Whatever thought you create or deed you perform, first of all check whether it is equal to the Father’s. ¹¹⁸When it is equal to the Father’s, you will experience the stage of an easy yogi; you won’t find it hard work.

¹¹⁹When you are in any difficult situation, bring the Father in front of you and you will be able to transform that situation on the basis of becoming stable in your original stage.

¹²⁰No matter how delicate the situation of your country may be, when you stay under the canopy of Baba’s protection you will always remain as lovely and detached as a lotus.

¹²¹Do you constantly remain under the canopy of protection?

¹²²When Baba comes as the Server, He constantly serves you children with the canopy of His protection.

¹²³As soon as you remember Baba, you will experience His companionship. ¹²⁴It takes time to find the companionship of a bodily being, but Baba becomes present within a second. ¹²⁵Even though you are living far away, do you experience yourself to be a very close soul?

¹²⁶The more you love someone, the closer that one will be to you. ¹²⁷So, how close are you?

¹²⁸You are close now and also close in all three places. ¹²⁹Wherever Brahmin souls place their feet, there will be other souls (who are to become Brahmins) there, which is why you have to go there.

¹³⁰Baba constantly responds to the children who stay in remembrance and will continue to respond, because it is through remembrance that you claim a right to all experiences.To give a lecture is not the only way to serve. ¹³¹You can also impress others with your experience. ¹³²Speaking on a topic from your experience attracts others the most.

¹³³You definitely do have to serve, and so serve in whatever way you can. ¹³⁴You have to claim marks in all subjects. ¹³⁵If you fail in even one subject, how would you be able to pass with honours?

¹³⁶Therefore, now cover all subjects. ^{137 138 139}

¹⁴⁰

¹⁴¹ 2. Throughout the whole cycle, the confluence age is the only spring time. ^{142 143 144}Do you consider yourselves to be constantly blooming, fragrant spiritual roses of eternal Spring?

¹⁴⁵When Spring comes, all the flowers are filled with colour. ¹⁴⁶They bloom and look very beautiful. ¹⁴⁷So too, the confluence age is the season of Spring of the whole cycle, in which every soul, every flower, comes into bloom.

¹⁴⁸Do you experience yourself to be a constantly blooming spiritual rose, that is, a soul who is constantly in spiritual remembrance? ¹⁴⁹Or, instead of becoming a flower, do you just remain a bud? ¹⁵⁰A small bud is at first closed, and when it opens up, it becomes a flower.

¹⁵¹Are you constantly in bloom or do you sometimes bloom and sometimes remain a bud? ¹⁵²A flower in constant bloom is one who attracts others even from a distance.

¹⁵³Do you have such spirituality? ¹⁵⁴Anyone who comes into contact with you should be attracted by your spiritual fragrance. ¹⁵⁵You would only present to others a flower in bloom.

¹⁵⁶So too, only flowers in bloom would surrender themselves to BapDada.
