Avyakt murli for Monday 19 December 1983

⁰> > 19-12-83 Om Shanti Avyakt Bapdada Madhuban

¹Today, the Ocean of Love Father is looking at his lovely children.

²Of course all the children are lovely, but they are still number-wise.

³Some are those who express their love, and the others are those who fulfil their love.

⁴The third type are those who are always the embodiment of love, and have merged themselves in the Ocean of Love: they are the children who are always totally absorbed in love.

⁵There is a difference between the words “lovely”, and “absorbed in love”.

⁶To become the Father’s children means to become lovely. ⁷Why?

⁸Because they are receiving God’s love, and also because, in the whole kalpa, such a type of love can never be given by anyone else.

⁹Godly love means selfless love.

¹⁰God’s love is the basis of this highest Brahmin life.

¹¹Godly love is the fruit of your invocations to God.

¹²Godly love is the donation of new life.

¹³Without Godly love, life is dry, like the pulp from the sugar cane.

¹⁴Godly love is the means to make one come closer to the Father.

¹⁵Godly love always makes one experience that he is with BapDada: that is, that God is his companion.

¹⁶Godly love frees one from hard labour, and makes him experience an easy and constant yogi stage.

¹⁷Godly love makes one cross the three steps very easily.

¹⁸Firstly the detachment from body consciousness, secondly the detachment from all bodily relationships, and thirdly the detachment from all attractions of this physical world and physical objects.

¹⁹One need not renounce them, but the fortune of all the highest achievements automatically makes one get detached from them.

²⁰Have you - the children who are receiving Godly love - renounced? ²¹Or have you claimed the highest fortune?

²²What have you actually renounced?

²³You have renounced the old deteriorated body, which is like a dress with many patterns, and that also of the last birth.

²⁴So, will you call such a type of renunciation really a renunciation? ²⁵You are fed up with it yourself! ²⁶So, instead of that, you are receiving an angelic body of light, which has no diseases, in which there is not even a trace of any old sanskars or nature, which has no bodily relationships, no naughtiness of the mind, no habit of the intellect wandering. ²⁷So, after achieving such an angelic body of light, is renouncing the old body really a renunciation?

²⁸What do you take, and what do you give?

²⁹Will it really be called a renunciation, or will it be called a fortune? ³⁰The same is the case with the selfish bodily relationships: they are the ones who snatch away your peace and happiness. ³¹One moment they are your brothers, and the next moment, because of selfishness, they become your enemies.

³²They are the ones who deceive you, and give you sorrow. ³³They are the ones who tie you with the strings of attachment.

³⁴You renounce them all, and experience the happiness of all relationships from the One.

³⁵So is it really called renunciation? ³⁶You renounce those relationships in which there are demands all the time.

³⁷Because all souls are always demanding, they cannot be called donors.

³⁸It is only One Father who gives you love in the form of the Bestower.

³⁹He has no desire to take.

⁴⁰However much a soul may be religious, a philanthropist, an incognito donor, or even a great soul, still he is a taker and not a giver.

⁴¹If not anything else, then at least he will be wanting pure love. ⁴²But the Father is complete, like an Ocean.

⁴³This is why he is the Bestower.

⁴⁴Godly love is the love from the Bestower. ⁴⁵This is why there is nothing to give, but only to take and take.

⁴⁶Similarly, perishable objects are like poisonous achievements.

⁴⁷They are like a net in which one can get entangled.

⁴⁸What has come of you, after experiencing all the perishable objects?

⁴⁹Haven’t you turned into birds in a cage? ⁵⁰You came into bondage didn’t you?

⁵¹It is these material objects which hove turned you into paupers. ⁵²Instead of that, you are now receiving the highest achievements, which will give you multi-million times treasures.

⁵³Therefore, would you call renouncing straws to achieve multi million times treasures really a renunciation?

⁵⁴So, Godly love actually gives you a fortune. ⁵⁵Renunciation is automatic.

⁵⁶Such easy renunciates become the highest fortunate ones. ⁵⁷Sometimes children try to act in a childish way in front of Baba, by saying “we have renounced so much, and left so much, so why is this happening?”

⁵⁸BapDada smiles, and asks the children: what have you left, and what have you gained?

⁵⁹Make a list of that.

⁶⁰Which side will be heavier?

⁶¹Will it be of what you have left, or what you have gained?

⁶²If not today, then tomorrow, it will be left behind.

⁶³Even unwillingly, you will have to renounce it. ⁶⁴If you become sensible, and renounce on gaining so much, will it really be renunciation?

⁶⁵Comparing renunciation to achievements is like the comparison of a shell with a diamond.

⁶⁶Don’t you think in this way too? ⁶⁷Or do you think that you have renounced too much?

⁶⁸Have you left too much?

⁶⁹So, are you the ones who have renounced? ⁷⁰Or, are you the ones who have gained and gained? (answer: “gained”) .

⁷¹Therefore, never think, even in your dreams, that “I have renounced so much”.

⁷²If you say that “I have done this”, or “I have left that”, then you become instrumental in wiping away your line of fortune.

⁷³Therefore, not even in your dreams should you ever create such a thought.

⁷⁴Godly love makes one experience a feeling of automatic surrender.

⁷⁵This feeling of surrender makes one like the Father (Bapsaman) .

⁷⁶Godly love is the key to all the treasures of the Father. ⁷⁷Why? ⁷⁸Because love makes one an heir soul.

⁷⁹Perishable love - physical love - will actually make you lose your kingdom.
