Avyakt murli for Thursday 1 February 1979

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.
