Avyakt murli for Thursday 8 October 1981

⁰> > 08-10-81 Om Shanti Avyakt Bapdada Madhuban ¹The Pure Desire of Father Brahma

²Today, BapDada is seeing His victorious jewels.

³Today, the devotees are celebrating Vijya Dashmi (Dashera – burning of Ravan on the 10th night after the festival of invoking the goddesses).

⁴Whilst the devotees are burning that (the effigy of Ravan), you children are celebrating a meeting. ⁵It is after you have burnt everything, that you celebrate this meeting.

⁶On the path of bhakti, what meeting do they celebrate after burning Ravan and gaining victory? ⁷You know the things of the path of bhakti very well.

⁸What stage do you have after you have killed Ravan? ⁹What is an indication of that?

¹⁰The meeting with Bharat (Brother of Rama who was to receive the kingdom).

¹¹This is the stage of brotherhood.

¹²Service and love indicates your vision of brotherhood.

¹³Deepmala is the indication of love. ¹⁴The vision of brotherhood is the basis of success in service.

¹⁵You cannot celebrate Deepmala without this.

¹⁶You cannot attain the tilak of sovereignty without the vision of brotherhood, Deepmala.

¹⁷So did you celebrate the Vijaya Dashmi, the memorial of today?

¹⁸The basis of this celebration is the celebration of the eighth night.

¹⁹You cannot attain victory without the celebration of the eighth night.

²⁰So where have you reached? ²¹Have you celebrated the eighth night?

²²Have all of you become “Nav Durga”?

²³This means eight powers and the ninth One is the Almighty.

²⁴Have you become “Nav Durga”?

²⁵Are you one who is an embodiment of all eight powers and do you have the company of the Almighty Authority Father as your ninth power?

²⁶It is only when you become Durga, that is, only when you destroy all your defects and become complete with all virtues that you are able to celebrate Dashera.

²⁷So BapDada has come to see whether you children have celebrated Dashera. ²⁸Or have you celebrated Ashthmi (eighth night)?

²⁹Did you ignite the imperishable matchstick or did you only ignite that temporary matchstick?

³⁰Did you only burn Ravan or did you also burn all of his offspring?

³¹Did you only kill Ravan or did you completely destroy Ravan’s whole kingdom as well?

³²Today Brahma Baba and Shiv Baba had a conversation in the subtle region. ³³At what time?

³⁴(At the time of class.) ³⁵BapDada also listens to you children’s heart­to­heart conversations.

³⁶When you children were asked whether you have celebrated Dashera or not, the majority of you neither raised your hand to say “Yes” nor did you raise your hand to say “No”.

³⁷Even when you write to Baba, you are very clever in giving a reply.

³⁸You don’t tell a lie, but the reply you give isn’t clear.

³⁹All of you know the standard three or four replies. ⁴⁰The reply you gave Baba was one of those.

⁴¹So Brahma Baba and Baba had a heart­to­heart conversation.

⁴²Father Brahma is invoking you children in order to open the gates to our home. ⁴³Even though the reply all of you children gave to today’s questions was not on paper, it was clearly revealed to Baba in your minds. ⁴⁴Today, during class, this child (Dadiji) asked everyone this question and BapDada observed everyone’s reply.

⁴⁵Baba has already told you the essence of the reply you gave. ⁴⁶There is no need to tell you that once more because you now know it.

⁴⁷What did Brahma Baba do as soon as he saw your reply?

⁴⁸The thing He did was very good. ⁴⁹You know Brahma Baba’s special sanskar.

⁵⁰He always played his part with this special sanskar. ⁵¹What did he do?

⁵²This speciality started at the time when Shiv Baba entered him. ⁵³When he saw your reply, he went into deep thought for a moment and then said: Today, You have to fulfil a desire I have.

⁵⁴What is that? ⁵⁵He said: “Give me the key today.” ⁵⁶Which key? ⁵⁷The key to transform everyone’s intellect and make them complete.

⁵⁸In the beginning, he had the intoxication of having found the key to all treasures and that it was simply a matter of using the key to open that treasure­store.

⁵⁹Therefore, today, Brahma Baba asked Shiv Baba for the key to make everyone complete.

⁶⁰Those who experienced seeing Brahma Baba in the physical form can imagine the scene when this conversation took place.

⁶¹Is Shiv Baba allowed to give Brahma the key? ⁶²Can the Father refuse Brahma? ⁶³You children are still not saying “Yes” or “No”.

⁶⁴However, it is certain that Brahma Baba definitely does have the deep desire to see all of you children complete.

⁶⁵Not that you will become that in the future, but that you should be complete now. ⁶⁶Whenever the two speak about you children, Brahma Baba’s face becomes like a Deepmala (a rosary of lights).

⁶⁷There are such great waves of enthusiasm in the master ocean to make you all complete and ignite the Deepmala.

⁶⁸You would have experienced how Brahma Baba didn’t like to hear certain words from the start of his physical life. ⁶⁹Which words were they? ⁷⁰He didn’t like to use those words in his work, nor to hear them in the work of the children.

⁷¹Baba didn’t like the words “I will do it at some time.”

⁷²In every situation, he would do everything instantly and inspire everyone to do the same. ⁷³Look, in plans for service and in transformation of oneself, He always said “Go right now! ⁷⁴Do this right now! ⁷⁵Even if there is only a short time left for you to catch the train, you must still go, because the train is going to be late departing from here.

⁷⁶So what were Baba’s sanskars? ⁷⁷“Right now!” ⁷⁸Not at some time, but “now”! ⁷⁹You heard the special words of “right now”.

⁸⁰Similarly, in the subtle region today they used the same words. ⁸¹They said that children must become this right now!

⁸²Baba will tell you another very amusing thing. ⁸³What would that be?

⁸⁴Because Brahma Baba himself is complete and perfect, he can’t understand why you children say that you will become this at some time.

⁸⁵He is very amazed. ⁸⁶The question of the drama is a different matter, but this is something entertaining and amusing. ⁸⁷It isn’t that he is not aware of the drama, but it is because of his love for you that whilst he watches the drama, he jokes with the Father.

⁸⁸He is allowed to joke with the Father, is he not?

⁸⁹Shiv Baba also smiled. ⁹⁰So you know what Father Brahma now wants. ⁹¹You must now free yourself and become Baba’s companion in order to open the gates to the land of liberation.

⁹²This is Brahma Baba’s pure desire for his children.

⁹³Now celebrate Diwali by first igniting the lamp of Baba’s pure desire for you. ⁹⁴From this one lamp, the whole Deepmala (rosary of lamps) will be ignited.

⁹⁵Do you understand? ⁹⁶Achcha, Baba will tell you the meaning of: “The meeting with Bharat” at some other time. ⁹⁷Achcha.

⁹⁸To those who put BapDada’s elevated wishes or hopes into practice; to those who ignite the lamp with the imperishable matchstick of determination and become victorious for all time; to those who use the language of “now” in their actions like sakar Baba did; to those who stop thinking about doing it “some time” but reveal sakar Baba’s image in their face; to such victorious jewels, BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste.

⁹⁹Meeting the kumaris: ¹⁰⁰Kumaris are flying birds because to be a kumari means to be someone who is always light.

¹⁰¹To be a kumari means to have no burden at all. ¹⁰²Anything that is light floats upwards.

¹⁰³To go constantly high means to have a constantly elevated stage. ¹⁰⁴Are you like this? ¹⁰⁵How high have you reached? ¹⁰⁶Those who constantly stay within the line drawn by Baba’s shrimat constantly remain flying up above.

¹⁰⁷So who are those who stay within the line that has been drawn for them?

¹⁰⁸They are true Sitas. ¹⁰⁹Are all of you true Sitas?

¹¹⁰Are you sure?

¹¹¹When you step outside that line, Ravan will take you.

¹¹²Ravan is always waiting for any of you to step outside of that line so that he can immediately take you away. ¹¹³Therefore, a kumari means to be someone who is a true Sita. ¹¹⁴Do not change yourself as soon as you leave from here. ¹¹⁵Whilst you are in Madhuban you are influenced by the blessing of the atmosphere of Madhuban.

¹¹⁶Whilst you are here, you receive an extra lift, whereas outside, you have to make effort to make progress.

¹¹⁷BapDada is a thousand­fold more pleased to see the kumaris.

¹¹⁸Because you have been saved from slaughter, He would feel happy, would He not?

¹¹⁹Achcha, now make a firm promise before you leave here. ¹²⁰Speaking to the Pandavas:

¹²¹Are all of you Pandavas an embodiment of shakti?

¹²²Are the Shaktis and Pandavas combined? ¹²³When you come in front of the Almighty Authority you are the Shaktis and when you are playing your role you are Pandavas.

¹²⁴If, whilst in remembrance of the Almighty Authority, you don’t remember that you yourself are a Shakti, you won’t enjoy it.

¹²⁵Each soul is Sita and the Supreme Soul is Rama.

¹²⁶So, you should have great pleasure in playing this role.

¹²⁷The most wonderful part of the confluence age is when Pandavas become Shaktis and Shaktis become brothers.

¹²⁸When you do this, it proves that you have forgotten all consciousness of the body.

¹²⁹There are sanskars of both male and female in each soul. ¹³⁰You have sometimes played a male role and at other times a female role.

¹³¹At the confluence age, you are given the pleasure of being a lover who remembers your Beloved.

¹³²You remember the Almighty Authority whilst considering yourself to be a Shakti.

¹³³Each of you is Sita and you remember Rama. ¹³⁴Speaking to the mothers:

¹³⁵Do you Shaktis of the Shakti Army always keep your weapons with you? ¹³⁶The ornaments shown with the Shaktis are their weapons.

¹³⁷Those who always keep their weapons with them are great donors and bestowers of blessings.

¹³⁸Do you always keep all of your weapons with you?

¹³⁹Not just sometimes, but always?

¹⁴⁰It was the tapasya of the Shaktis that brought the Almighty Authority here. ¹⁴¹You Shaktis now have to reveal the Almighty Authority.

¹⁴²Continue to give blessings at every step.

¹⁴³You have to bless everyone with your good wishes. ¹⁴⁴You children of the Ocean of Happiness are embodiments of happiness, are you not?

¹⁴⁵You constantly celebrate this meeting and thereby constantly swing in the swing of happiness, do you not?

¹⁴⁶Whilst eating, drinking, walking and moving around, you remain completely free from sorrow, do you not?

¹⁴⁷You don’t have the slightest trace of sorrow even in your thoughts.

¹⁴⁸Each of you is a constant embodiment of happiness.

¹⁴⁹Because you have been in the world of sorrow for half a cycle and it is now the time to experience happiness you have discarded all sorrow.

¹⁵⁰Since you have found the Ocean of Happiness, why should you have any sorrow?

¹⁵¹You have been given the blessing of remaining constantly happy for all time. ¹⁵²Achcha.

¹⁵³Blessing: May you souls make the fortress of the gathering very strong by remaining loving and contented.

¹⁵⁴The power of the gathering is a special power. ¹⁵⁵No one can shake a united fortress.

¹⁵⁶However, the basis of this is to remain loving with one another, to give regard to one another, to remain content with yourself and to make others content.

¹⁵⁷No one should become disturbed and no one should disturb anyone else.

¹⁵⁸When you all continue to co­ operate with good wishes and pure feelings, the fortress of your gathering will remain very strong.

¹⁵⁹The power of your gathering is the special basis of your victory.

¹⁶⁰Slogan: Experience the Father’s company in practice so that instead of attacking you, Maya will retreat.
