Avyakt murli for Sunday 10 January 1988

⁰> > 10-01-88 Om Shanti Avyakt Bapdada Madhuban

¹The method of churning and the methods to increase churning power.

²Today, the Jewel­Merchant Father has come to meet His invaluable jewels to see how many jewels of knowledge every elevated soul has accumulated, that is, how many jewels of knowledge you have imbibed in your practical life. ³Each and every jewel of knowledge is more valuable than multimillions.

⁴So, just think how many jewels of knowledge you have received from the beginning until now.

⁵The Jewel­Merchant Father has filled the apron of the intellect of every child with many jewels.

⁶He has given all the children equal jewels of knowledge at the same time.

⁷However, the more you use these jewels of knowledge for yourself and for others, the more these jewels continue to increase.

⁸BapDada was seeing that although the Father has given equally to all the children, some children have increased their jewels, whereas others have not.

⁹Some are full, overflowing, some have unlimited treasures, some are using them according to the time, some are using them for a task and are increasing them multimillionfold. ¹⁰Some are unable to use these jewels for a task as much as they should. ¹¹This is why they are unable to understand the value of the jewels as much as they should.

¹²Your intellect has imbibed what you have received, but you are unable to experience the attainment of happiness, joy, power, peace and a stage free from obstacles that you should have by using them.

¹³The reason for this is lack of churning power, because to churn means to put into your life, to imbibe it.

¹⁴Not to churn means just to imbibe in your intellect.

¹⁵The former use these for every task and in every action of their life, whether it is for the self or for others. ¹⁶The latter simply remember these with their intellect, that is, they imbibe them in their intellect.

¹⁷For instance, when you keep a physical treasure locked up in your safe and you don't use it at the right time or all the time, you don't have the experience of happiness, but you just have the reassurance in your heart that you have that treasure. ¹⁸Neither will it increase nor will you have an experience.

¹⁹In the same way, if you have just imbibed the jewels of knowledge in your intellect, if you just remember them and repeat them in words saying that the point is very good, then, for a short time you have good intoxication of that good point. ²⁰However, you have to put these jewels of knowledge into your practical life and into every action because knowledge is not only jewels, but knowledge is enlightenment and knowledge is also power.

²¹Therefore, if you don't use them in action with this method, neither do they increase nor is there any experience.

²²Knowledge is a study and it is also an elevated weapon for battling.

²³This is the value of knowledge.

²⁴To know their value means to use them for a task and the more you use them for a task, the more you continue to experience power.

²⁵For instance, when you don't use a weapon according to the time, then that weapon becomes useless, that is, it no longer has that much value.

²⁶Knowledge is also a weapon, but, if at the time of becoming a conqueror of Maya you don't use the weapon, then you reduce its value because you didn't take its benefit.

²⁷To take the benefit of something means to keep its value.

²⁸You all have jewels of knowledge because you all have a right, but you are numberwise in being full.

²⁹You were told that the main reason is a lack of the power of churning.

³⁰Churning power is the basis to experience the Father's treasures to be your own.

³¹Just as physical food when digested becomes blood, because food is separate, but when you digest it, it then takes the form of blood.

³²In the same way, with churning power, you experience the Father's treasures to be your own; you experience them as a right and as your treasure.

³³Previously too, BapDada has been saying that only when you grind your own ingredients will you feel that intoxication. ³⁴That is, by using the Father's treasures with your churning power, experience attainment and your intoxication will rise.

³⁵At the time of listening to Baba you have intoxication, but why does it not remain all the time?

³⁶The reason is that you have not made them your own with churning power.

³⁷Churning power means to go to the bottom of the ocean, to be introverted and go into the depth of every jewel of knowledge.

³⁸You mustn't just repeat them, but what is the significance of every point, and at what time and with what method must I use every point, and with what method must I use every point for the service of others. ³⁹So listen to every point and think about these four things.

⁴⁰Together with churning, also go into the sweetness of that secret, become lost in the experience of intoxication.

⁴¹Use these at the time of the different obstacles from Maya or when you have different problems of nature: according to the situations or according to the obstacles, whatever points I churned, will these jewels of knowledge make me or can they make me a conqueror of Maya? ⁴²Did that happen practically? ⁴³That is, did you become a conqueror of Maya?

⁴⁴Or, is it that you thought that you would become a conqueror of Maya, but instead you had to labour or your time was wasted? ⁴⁵This proves that the method was not accurate, and this is why you didn't experience success.

⁴⁶You also need the method and practice to use these things. ⁴⁷Just as scientists bring very powerful bombs.

⁴⁸They believe that with those they will definitely be victorious.

⁴⁹However, if the person using those bombs doesn't know how to use them, then even though they are powerful bombs, when they just fall here or there, then they are wasted.

⁵⁰What was the reason?

⁵¹The method to use them was not accurate.

⁵²In this way, every jewel of knowledge is extremely valuable.

⁵³Situations and obstacles cannot remain when you have the jewels of knowledge and the power of knowledge.

⁵⁴However, if you don't have victory, then understand that you don't know the method to use them accurately.

⁵⁵Secondly, by not constantly having the practiceof churning, at the time of need, when you suddenly try to use them, then you are deceived.

⁵⁶You then have the carelessness that you have the knowledge in your intellect anyway, and that you will use it at the right time.

⁵⁷However, you need constant practice and practice over a long period of time.

⁵⁸Otherwise, what title will those who just think about these things receive?

⁵⁹A kumbhakarna.

⁶⁰What carelessness did he have?

⁶¹He only thought: Let them come, and then I will be victorious.

⁶²So the carelessness to think that it will happen when it is time deceives you.

⁶³Therefore, continue to increase churning power every day.

⁶⁴Whether it is the revised course or the avyakt murli that you hear every day, in order to increase churning power, imbibe one special point in your intellect every day and practise with the method of the four things that Baba told you about.

⁶⁵While moving along, while performing every action, whether it is for yourself or an action for service, let churning take place throughout the day.

⁶⁶Whether you are in business or you go to the office or whether you serve at a centre, whenever your intellect is a little free, repeatedly increase the practice of churning.

⁶⁷Some work is such that while you are doing that work, you can also think about these things at the same time.

⁶⁸It is for a very little time that you have to do work in which your intellect has to pay full attention. ⁶⁹Otherwise, your intellect can continue to work on both things.

⁷⁰If you fix such time in your timetable, you can find a lot of time in between.

⁷¹It isn't that you have to find special time to use churning power.

⁷²You can do it even while walking and moving around.

⁷³If you have some time in solitude, that is very good.

⁷⁴Go into the depth of the clarification of every point; go into its expansion and you will enjoy yourself very much.

⁷⁵But, first of all stabilise yourself in the intoxication of that point, then you won't get bored.

⁷⁶Otherwise, you just repeat the points and you then say, "This is now done; what should I now do?"

⁷⁷When spinning the discus of self­realisation, some of you make me laugh: what should we think about? ⁷⁸Our cycle finishes within five minutes!

⁷⁹They don't know how to experience that stage and so they simply repeat the knowledge: the golden, silver, copper and iron ages, so many births, this much life­span, this much time, that is all, and it is completed.

⁸⁰However, to become a spinner of the discus of self­realisation means to experience a knowledge­full and powerful stage.

⁸¹Now practise with every point to remain stable in the intoxication of that point and to become a knower of the significance of that point of knowledge.

⁸²This was one aspect of the discus of self­realisation that the Father spoke.

⁸³In the same way, churn each and every point of knowledge and every now and then, practise having an experience.

⁸⁴It should not be that you just sit there for half an hour simply churning it.

⁸⁵Whenever you have time, let the intellect have the practice of churning.

⁸⁶With churning power, your intellect will remain busy and you will automatically and easily become a conqueror of Maya.

⁸⁷When Maya sees that you are busy, she automatically steps away.

⁸⁸If Maya comes and you then have to battle to chase her away, and sometimes there is victory and sometimes there is defeat, that is effort of the crawling stage.

⁸⁹Now is the time to make intense effort; it is the time to fly.

⁹⁰Therefore, keep your intellect busy churning.

⁹¹Through this churning power, you will remain absorbed in the power of remembrance. ⁹²You will easily have that experience.

⁹³Churning makes you a conqueror of Maya and free from all waste thoughts.

⁹⁴Where there is no waste and no obstacles, you automatically have a powerful stage, the stage of remaining lost in love.

⁹⁵Some think that they have very little of the seed stage or the stage of powerful remembrance, or that they have an experience after paying a lot of attention.

⁹⁶You were told the reason for this last time too, that there is some leakage. ⁹⁷The power of your intellect goes to waste.

⁹⁸Sometimes, you will have waste thoughts and at other times you will have ordinary thoughts.

⁹⁹To keep your intellect busy with the work that you are doing is known as having ordinary thoughts.

¹⁰⁰At that time, you don't have the power of remembrance or the churning power that you should have, and you satisfy yourself by saying: today, I didn't commit any sins, I haven't had any wastage and I didn't give anyone any sorrow.

¹⁰¹However, did you have powerful thoughts, a powerful stage and powerful remembrance?

¹⁰²If you didn't have these, that is called ordinary thoughts.

¹⁰³You performed actions, but karma and yoga were not together.

¹⁰⁴You became one who performs actions, but not one who is a karma yogi.

¹⁰⁵Therefore, while performing actions, there should always be the experience of either churning power or the power of being lost in that stage.

¹⁰⁶Both these powers are the basis of doing powerful service.

¹⁰⁷Because those who churn have that practice they are able to create whatever stage they want whenever they want.

¹⁰⁸By having a link, the leakage will end and whatever experience you want ­ whether it is the seed stage, or the angelic stage ­ you will easily be able to experience whatever stage you want.

¹⁰⁹When you have awareness of knowledge, then by remembering knowledge, you automatically remember the Bestower of that Knowledge.

¹¹⁰So, do you understand how you have to churn?

¹¹¹You were told that Baba would tell you about churning at some point.

¹¹²So, today, Baba has told you the method to churn.

¹¹³The basis of always being victorious over the obstacles of Maya and always experiencing success in service is churning power. ¹¹⁴Do you understand?

¹¹⁵Achcha.
