¹The easy way to become bodiless.

²Today, Baba has come to meet the long lost and now found children of the previous cycle who are dearly beloved, loving, co­operative embodiments of power.

³BapDada always stays with His co­operative children.

⁴The thread of love and co­operation is constantly unbroken and imperishable.

⁵Today, in the subtle region, BapDada was creating the rosary of love of the extremely loving children.

⁶All of you are loving, but you would still be said to be numberwise.

⁷Today, Baba was numbering the children according to their specialities.

⁸Baba saw so many specialities in some children that they appeared to be equal to the Father and very close jewels.

⁹Baba also saw some children who were having to labour to imbibe some specialities. ¹⁰On seeing some children labour, Baba felt mercy for them.

¹¹“They are my children and yet having to labour!”

¹²Baba saw that the greatest effort the children make was in trying to become bodiless.

¹³Bap and Dada were discussing this between themselves asking why such souls who are bodiless find it difficult to become bodiless.

¹⁴Father Brahma said: Because the children have been putting on costumes and playing their different roles for eighty­four births, they have become the bodily beings.

¹⁵Father Shiva said: Yes they have been playing their roles, but what is the time of the cycle now?

¹⁶You automatically act according to your awareness of time.

¹⁷You have this practice, do you not?

¹⁸Baba said: You now have to complete your role and return home.

¹⁹You will have to leave behind the costume of the part you have been playing.

²⁰In order to return home you will have to renounce your old body. ²¹In order to go to your kingdom of heaven, you will have to renounce your old costume.

²²Since you now have to go somewhere else, why should it be difficult to forget your old body?

²³It is because you forget that you now have to return home? ²⁴All of you are ever­ready to return home, are you not?

²⁵Or, are there still some cords holding you down? ²⁶Are you ever­ready?

²⁷BapDada has given you time for service.

²⁸You are playing the part of a server. ²⁹Therefore check that you don’t have any bond of your body.

³⁰That is, check that your old costume is not too tight for you.

³¹You don’t like tight dresses, do you?

³²If your dress is too tight, you can’t be ever­ready.

³³To be free from bondage means to have a loose dress, not a tight one.

³⁴Have you become free from bondage and yogyukt (full of yoga) to such an extent that you will be able to return home as soon as you receive that order?

³⁵Since you have promised that you belong to the one Father and none other, then have you not become free from all bondages?

³⁶In order to become bodiless pay special attention to four things.

³⁷Even in the world outside, when people want to forget themselves they become lost in true love (preet) for one.

³⁸Therefore to have true love is the easy way to forget yourself. ³⁹Love is the way to forget the world and your body.

⁴⁰A true friend (meet) enables you to forget everything. ⁴¹When two friends meet they forget all consciousness of themselves and the time.

⁴²The songs of the heart (geet): For the time you sing a love song from your heart, you forget yourself and the time. ⁴³The right way (reet). ⁴⁴When you know the right way, it is very easy to become bodiless.

⁴⁵You only find it difficult when you don’t know the way. ⁴⁶First is love.

⁴⁷Second is friend. ⁴⁸Third is song. ⁴⁹Fourth is the way.

⁵⁰All of you have experienced these four things, have you not?

⁵¹You have experienced love.

⁵²There is only you and the Father and no third one in between.

⁵³To have found the Father means you have found everything.

⁵⁴What else remains for you to do?

⁵⁵Even today, devotees sing devotional songs of love for God.

⁵⁶They become totally lost in just singing songs of love.

⁵⁷Therefore, just consider how lost in love those who have fulfilled the responsibility of love would be. ⁵⁸You have experienced this love, have you not?

⁵⁹You have changed from those with a divorced intellect into those whose intellect has love, have you not?

⁶⁰So where there is love for God, how long would it take to become bodiless?

⁶¹To become bodiless out of love is like a game of a second.

⁶²As soon as you say, "Baba!" you forget your body.

⁶³The word “Baba” is the bomb of soul consciousness that makes you forget the old world.

⁶⁴(The lights went out.) ⁶⁵You now see the lights play the game of switching off. ⁶⁶In the same way, your switch is the switch of awareness.

⁶⁷As soon as you put on the switch of the Father, you turn off the switch of awareness of your body and the bodily world.

⁶⁸This game just takes a second.

⁶⁹Even to say the word “Baba” with your lips takes time, but how long does it take to bring Him into your awareness?

⁷⁰To maintain your love means to become bodiless easily.

⁷¹In the same way, your truest Friend is one who would even go with you beyond the graveyard.

⁷²Bodily friends would only go with you as far as the graveyard. ⁷³Therefore, they cannot become removers of sorrow and bestowers of happiness.

⁷⁴At a time of sorrow, they can be a little helpful.

⁷⁵They can help you a little, but can't remove your sorrow.

⁷⁶So, you have found your true Friend, have you not?

⁷⁷Constantly remain in love with this imperishable Friend and all your labouring will end.

⁷⁸Since you know how to love, why do you still labour?

⁷⁹BapDada sometimes becomes a little amused.

⁸⁰When someone has the practice of carrying a burden and you invite him to put it down and sit comfortably, he is not able to do so.

⁸¹He will constantly run towards his burden again and again. ⁸²Then he would become breathless and cry out to be freed.

⁸³Therefore, constantly remain in love with your true Friend and all your labouring will end.

⁸⁴Do not step away from your Friend, but continue to progress with your constant Companion.

⁸⁵In the same way, constantly continue to sing songs of the virtues you have attained from BapDada.
