Avyakt murli for Friday 22 January 1988

⁰> > 22-01-88 Om Shanti Avyakt Bapdada Madhuban

¹The first step of courage is surrender.

²(The life story of Brahma Baba). ³Today, BapDada, the Ocean of Love, is pleased to see His loving children.

⁴Each and every loving soul has just the one deep desire and elevated thought that they should all become equal to the Father and become merged in love.

⁵To become merged in love means to become equal to the Father.

⁶Everyone has the determined thought in their heart that they definitely have to give a return of the love, powerful sustenance and the limitless and imperishable treasures they have received from BapDada.

⁷What will you give as a return?

⁸Apart from the love in your heart, what else do you have?

⁹Whatever you have has been given to you by the Father. ¹⁰What else will you give?

¹¹To become equal to the Father is the return and you can all do this.

¹²BapDada is seeing that nowadays the awareness of Father Brahma has especially emerged in everyone's heart to a greater extent.

¹³This awareness is not of the physical body, but the awareness of the specialities of his divine activities because the alokik Brahmin life is the life of being an embodiment of knowledge. ¹⁴Because of being an embodiment of knowledge, awareness of the body will not bring any waves of sorrow.

¹⁵In a life without knowledge, whenever people remember someone, the physical body of that person would appear in front of them, and because it is a bodily relationship, they experience sorrow.

¹⁶However, when you Brahmin children remember the alokik Father, you receive power ­ that you too definitely have to become equal to the Father.

¹⁷The awareness of the alokik Father brings you power, that is, it gives you power.

¹⁸Even when some children show the love in their heart with pearls in their eyes, they are not tears of sorrow or tears of separation, but they are pearls of love.

¹⁹That is love of the meeting of hearts.

²⁰You are not yogis who are separated, but Raja Yogis because true love from the heart brings you power for you to give the Father a fast return.

²¹To give a return means to become equal.

²²It is with this method that you will return to your sweet home with your loving BapDada. ²³That is, you will go back with Him.

²⁴You have to give a return and and also return home with the Father.

²⁵This is why your love and remembrance makes you detached from the world and loving to the Father.

²⁶BapDada was seeing the children's thought of becoming powerful and their enthusiasm to become equal.

²⁷He was seeing the specialities of Father Brahma.

²⁸If you were to speak about Brahma Baba's specialities, how many would there be?

²⁹There was speciality at every step.

³⁰Even in his thoughts, at every moment, he had the zeal and enthusiasm to make everyone special.

³¹In a practical way, you saw in him the speciality of constantly putting zeal and enthusiasm into every soul through his attitude.

³²Through his words, he gave courage; he brought hope to those who felt hopeless; he made weak souls fly with the flying stage. ³³He made everyone worthy of service. ³⁴His every word was invaluable, sweet and yuktiyukt.

³⁵In the same way, he was the children's companion in every action and made them karma yogis.

³⁶He wasn't just an observer who watched with detachment, but, in order to give children the experience of the importance of physical work, he was a companion in action.

³⁷"Whatever actions I perform, children who see me will automatically do the same." ³⁸He constantly taught this lesson through his actions.

³⁹In relationships and connections with little children, he became like the little children and made them happy.

⁴⁰With retired elderly people, he was experienced and constantly gave them zeal and enthusiasm. ⁴¹With little children, he was like a child, with the youth, he was like a youth and with the elderly, he was an elderly person and constantly made each one move forward. ⁴²With his relationships and connections, he always gave the experience of belonging.

⁴³Little children would also say, "Baba doesn't love anyone else as much as he loves me."

⁴⁴He gave each one so much love that each one felt, "Baba is mine."

⁴⁵This is the speciality of relationship and connection.

⁴⁶In looking at others, he saw the speciality and virtue of every soul.

⁴⁷In his thoughts, even while always knowing someone to be the last number bead, he always had pure and positive thoughts for such a soul that even such a soul constantly moves forward.

⁴⁸All the children experienced such specialities.

⁴⁹To become equal in all these things means to follow the father.

⁵⁰Is it difficult to follow in this way?

⁵¹This is called love; this is called giving the return.

⁵²BapDada was seeing how much return each child has given.

⁵³Everyone has the aim, but the number lies in their practical life.

⁵⁴Everyone wants to be number one.

⁵⁵No one would prefer to be number two or three.

⁵⁶This is also a good and powerful aim, but to make your qualifications according to your aim is to become equal.

⁵⁷For this, what was the first step of courage that Father Brahma took through which he experienced being multimillion times fortunate from the beginning?

⁵⁸The first step of courage was to surrender everything.

⁵⁹He surrendered everything.

⁶⁰He didn't think about what would happen or how it would happen.

⁶¹In a second, according to the Father's elevated directions ­ when the Father gave a signal, it was the Father's signal and Brahma's action or step.

⁶²This is called the first step of courage.

⁶³He even surrendered his body.

⁶⁴He constantly made his mind successful with the method of manmanabhav.

⁶⁵This was how his mind, that is, every thought was successful, that is, he became an embodiment of success.

⁶⁶Without any worry for the future, he surrendered all his wealth because he had the faith that this giving was not giving, but was to receive multimillionfold.

⁶⁷In the same way, he also surrendered his relationships, that is, he transformed the lokik relationships into alokik.

⁶⁸He didn’t leave anything, but he brought benefit and transformed everything.

⁶⁹He surrendered the intellect that had the consciousness of "I" and the intellect of ego.

⁷⁰This is how he became constantly pure, cool and a bestower of happiness with his body, mind and intellect.

⁷¹No matter what situations came up with his lokik family or even from souls not known to him in the world, neither in his thoughts nor his dreams did he have any upheaval of doubt, even in a subtle form ­ not even the slightest thought.

⁷²Father Brahma's special wonder was that where all of you had the example of Father Brahma in the corporeal form in front of all of you, Brahma himself did not have any physical example in front of him.

⁷³Unshakeable faith and the Father's shrimat were his support.

⁷⁴For all of you it is very easy.

⁷⁵And the later you came, the easier it is for you, because you have the example of the elevated life of transformation of many souls.

⁷⁶It is clear for you: you have to do this and become this.

⁷⁷This is why there is no margin for you people to question "Why?" or "What?"

⁷⁸You can see everything.

⁷⁹However, there was a margin for these questions to arise for Brahma Baba.

⁸⁰What do you have to do? ⁸¹What is going to happen in the future? ⁸²Am I doing it right or am I wrong? ⁸³It was possible for these thoughts to arise, but he made the possible impossible.

⁸⁴With one strength and one support he had faith in the intellect and became the number one victorious soul.

⁸⁵Because of this surrender, his intellect was always light. ⁸⁶He didn't have any burden on his intellect.

⁸⁷His mind was carefree.

⁸⁸On his face, you always saw the clear signs of a carefree emperor.

⁸⁹Three hundred and fifty children and there wasn't even flour to feed the children, and they had to be fed on time!

⁹⁰Just think: could anyone remain carefree in such a situation? ⁹¹The bell had to be rung at 1.00 pm and up to 11.00 am there was no flour. ⁹²Who could remain carefree?

⁹³Even under such circumstances, he remained cheerful and unshakeable.

⁹⁴"This is the Father's responsibility, not mine. ⁹⁵I belong to the Father and the children also belong to the Father. ⁹⁶I am just an instrument." ⁹⁷Who can have such faith and remain carefree?

⁹⁸A soul who is surrendered with his mind and intellect.

⁹⁹He did not use his intellect, thinking, "I don't know what is going to happen. ¹⁰⁰Will everyone starve? ¹⁰¹Will this happen or that happen?" ¹⁰²Although having a margin for such waste thoughts and doubts, he always had powerful thoughts: The Father is always the Protector and the Benefactor.

¹⁰³This is the speciality of surrender.

¹⁰⁴So, just as Father Brahma surrendered and took the first step of courage, follow the father in the same way.

¹⁰⁵Faith definitely brings victory.

¹⁰⁶The flour came on time, the bell was rung and they passed.

¹⁰⁷This is known as not having questions, not taking the crooked path, but always putting the full­ stop of benefit.

¹⁰⁸Full­stop!

¹⁰⁹With this method, it will be easy and you will attain success.

¹¹⁰So, this was the wonder of Father Brahma.

¹¹¹Today, you were told about the one first step.

¹¹²Become free from the burden of worry.

¹¹³This is known as giving the return of love.

¹¹⁴Achcha.

¹¹⁵To those who constantly follow the father at every step, to those who give the return of love at every step, to those who always have faith in the intellect and as carefree emperors always remain free from worry, to those who become equal to the Father in their thoughts, words, deeds and relationships, to those who constantly have pure and positive thoughts, to those who always see the speciality of each one, to those who constantly make every soul move forward, to the children who are equal to the Father in this way, heart­filled love and remembrance from the loving Father.

¹¹⁶BapDada meeting groups:

¹¹⁷Do you consider yourselves to be the highest­on­high Brahmin souls who belong to the highest­on­high Father? ¹¹⁸Brahmins are remembered as the highest of all.

¹¹⁹The sign of the highest is always shown as the topknot of brahmins. ¹²⁰People of the world have shown the topknot as the symbol of those worldly brahmins.

¹²¹So, you are not those who have a topknot, but those who remain in the stage of the topknot.

¹²²They have shown the physical symbol, but it is in fact a matter of staying in a high stage.

¹²³Brahmins are said to be the most elevated. ¹²⁴The most elevated means the most elevated of human beings (purshottam), more elevated than ordinary human souls.

¹²⁵You are such elevated beings, are you not? ¹²⁶The soul is said to be "purush".

¹²⁷Those who are to become elevated souls means to become the most elevated human beings of all human beings.

¹²⁸Deities are also called the most elevated because they are deity souls.

¹²⁹You are Brahmins, even higher than deity souls. ¹³⁰Always have this intoxication. ¹³¹For the other intoxication, it would be said: Reduce it, but for spiritual intoxication, the Father says: Continue to increase it because this intoxication does not cause damage.

¹³²All other forms of intoxication cause damage. ¹³³This will make you climb high and the other would make you fall.

¹³⁴If spiritual intoxication comes down, you remember the old world. ¹³⁵If the intoxication rises, there will be the awareness of the new world.

¹³⁶This Brahmin world is also a new world. ¹³⁷This world is even more elevated than the golden age.

¹³⁸So, constantly continue to move forward with this awareness.

¹³⁹Do you always experience yourselves to be the elevated creation of the Father, the World Creator? ¹⁴⁰Brahmin life means the elevated creation of the World Creator.

¹⁴¹Do you have the intoxication that each one of you is the direct creation of the Father?

¹⁴²People of the world unknowingly say that they have been created by God.

¹⁴³Previously, all of you also used to say this unknowingly, but you now know that you are the kumars and kumaris who belong to the clan of Shiva.

¹⁴⁴So, you now say, on the basis of knowledge and understanding, that God has created you and that you are the mouth­born creation.

¹⁴⁵The Father has created the creation directly through Brahma.

¹⁴⁶So, you are the creation of BapDada or the mother and Father.

¹⁴⁷You can now say from experience that you are the direct creation of God. ¹⁴⁸So, God's creation would be so elevated!

¹⁴⁹As the Creator, so would be His creation, would it not? ¹⁵⁰Do you always have this intoxication and happiness? ¹⁵¹You do not consider yourselves to be ordinary, do you?

¹⁵²When this secret enters your intellect, you can constantly and automatically have this spiritual intoxication and happiness on your face and in your activities.

¹⁵³Seeing your face, others experience you truly to be the creation of the elevated Creator.
