Avyakt murli for Sunday 7 March 1982

⁰> > 07-03-82 Om Shanti Avyakt Bapdada Madhuban

¹Benefits of slowing down the speed of thoughts.

²Today, BapDada has come to meet His children who constantly remember the One, those who belong to the one Father and none other, those who are stable in a constant and steady stage and are embodiments of remembrance. ³BapDada is seeing the elevated lines of every child's birth of dying alive.

⁴In today's world they tell souls their fortune, their virtues and the greatness of their task by reading the lines on their palms.

⁵However, BapDada does not look at the lines on your palms. ⁶Baba is looking at the lines of the speed and stage of each of you children from your lips, eyes and forehead. ⁷Usually, someone tries to recognise another person from his face.

⁸Because those people are body conscious, they check physical things.

⁹BapDada sees an embodiment of remembrance from the forehead, the form of fire from the eyes and the stage of being as loving and detached as a lotus from the smile on the face.

¹⁰The lines on the forehead of those who are constant embodiments of remembrance will show that they have a very slow speed of thoughts.

¹¹They won't have any type of burden; they won't be under pressure. ¹²One thought will not give birth to many thoughts in one minute.

¹³Just as a physical illness of the body is examined by the pulse being felt, so too, the lines on the forehead are a sign of the speed of thoughts. ¹⁴If the speed of thoughts is very fast, if thoughts constantly arise one after another, then through that extremely fast speed of thoughts, it is wasting the energy of your fortune.

¹⁵It is just like the power and energy of the body is also wasted by someone who speaks too quickly or who is constantly talking.

¹⁶What do you tell someone who is constantly talking, who talks too much and too loudly?

¹⁷Speak less and say it softly!

¹⁸In the same way, the speed of thoughts wastes spiritual energy. ¹⁹All of you children are experienced in this.

²⁰What is the speed of thoughts when you have waste thoughts and what is the speed of thoughts when you are churning knowledge? ²¹A lot of energy is wasted by one and energy is created by the other.

²²When the speed of waste thoughts is fast, you never experience yourself to be an embodiment of power. ²³Just as when you have lost all your physical energy, you say that your head has become empty, in the same way, such a soul experiences himself to be empty of all attainments.

²⁴For physical energy you are given an injection or a bottle of glucose. ²⁵In the same way, a soul who is weak in spirituality has to follow this method of effort in his awareness: I am a master almighty authority.

²⁶What points did BapDada relate in the murli today? ²⁷What is the brake for waste thoughts? ²⁸To try to apply a full-stop.

²⁹All these methods are ways of injecting yourself.

³⁰With this injection of the right method of effort, they become powerful for some time.

³¹Or they give themselves glucose through special programmes of remembrance or through special gatherings or company.

³²However, someone who has the habit of thinking too fast will, for a little time, experience himself to be powerful by filling himself with that power, but will then become weak again.

³³This is why, seeing the result from the lines on your forehead, BapDada is once again reminding you children of the shrimat: Don't allow the speed of your thoughts to become too fast!

³⁴For spoken words you tell others: Say two words instead of ten, and those two words should be powerful enough to carry out the work of one hundred words.

³⁵Similarly, this applies to the speed of thoughts; you should only have thoughts that are necessary.

³⁶Thought is the seed that should be filled with the fruit of success. ³⁷It should not be an empty seed that doesn’t bear any fruit. ³⁸This is known as constantly having powerful thoughts and not having wasteful thoughts. ³⁹When thoughts are few, there will automatically be less, and they will be powerful, whereas when thoughts are wasteful, there will be more and there will be no attainment.

⁴⁰Consider waste thoughts to be like a bamboo jungle – one automatically grows from another and they rub against one another.

⁴¹Then they catch fire and the jungle burns itself in the fire it has created by itself. ⁴²In the same way, one wasteful thought rubs against another wasteful thought and creates a fire of one or other vice and causes you distress.

⁴³Therefore, let the speed of your thoughts slow down. ⁴⁴Whether you call it the treasure or the special energy of this birth, in which you have died alive, it is your thoughts. ⁴⁵The basis of dying alive is pure thoughts. ⁴⁶I am not a body, but a soul.

⁴⁷This thought changed you from a shell into a diamond. ⁴⁸I am a child of the Father from the previous cycle. ⁴⁹I am an heir, I have all rights. ⁵⁰This thought made you into a master almighty authority.

⁵¹So this is your treasure, this is your energy and these are your thoughts. ⁵²How do you use your special treasures? ⁵³Recognise the treasures and energy of your thoughts and use them accordingly, for only then will all thoughts become practical and you will become an embodiment of total success.

⁵⁴So do you understand what lines the Father looked at today?

⁵⁵Think less, that is, have thoughts that take a practical form.

⁵⁶Those who have such lines will constantly be the emperors of the carefree land.

⁵⁷Constantly speak elevated words through your lips. ⁵⁸Elevated words are very few and can be counted, just as great souls are very few and souls are many and the Supreme Soul is just One.

⁵⁹Therefore don't waste either type of energy – thoughts or words.

⁶⁰A mahavir and a maharathi is one who speaks elevated words; one who has thoughts in the intellect that take practical form.

⁶¹This is the sign of a mahavir and a maharathi.

⁶²Become such a maharathi that anyone who comes in front of you wants you, a great soul, to speak words of blessings for him or to have elevated thoughts for him. ⁶³Words of blessings are always few.

⁶⁴So you are maharathi, mahavir, deity souls, souls who are worthy of worship by the devotees. ⁶⁵Constantly have thoughts and words that are filled with blessings.

⁶⁶Speak words that are filled with nectar, not ordinary words. ⁶⁷Achcha.

⁶⁸To those who make themselves and others constantly cool with their elevated thoughts, to those who constantly speak words filled with blessings, to those who have elevated lines of fortune, to the constantly elevated souls, great souls, deity souls, worthy-of-worship souls, BapDada's love, remembrance and namaste. ⁶⁹Avyakt BapDada meeting the doubly-foreign children:

⁷⁰All of you are the serviceable jewels who are constantly loving, co-operative and servers of BapDada, are you not?

⁷¹Therefore, each of you jewels is so invaluable that you are worthy to be placed in the showcase of the world. ⁷²BapDada knows that you have come to belong to the Father having climbed over very many various high walls. ⁷³You climbed over the walls of religion, customs and systems; you climbed so many such walls!

⁷⁴However, because of the co-operation received from the Father, you crossed all those walls as though you just took a step.

⁷⁵Nothing was difficult. ⁷⁶It felt so easy that you understood that you belonged to the Father for all time.

⁷⁷If you didn’t all belong to the Father, how could so many centres have been opened abroad?
