Avyakt murli for Saturday 20 February 1988

⁰> > 20-02-88 Om Shanti Avyakt Bapdada Madhuban

¹The means to finish tiredness of the mind and body is powerful remembrance.

²Today, the Father, the Resident of the faraway land, has come to meet His children who are residents of the eternal land, residents of the original land as well as those who are living abroad for the sake of service.

³BapDada knows that you are My long­lost and now­found specially beloved children, and that you are residents of the eternal land, the supreme abode. ⁴And, together with the beginning of the world, when there was your original land, the land of Bharat, when it was your golden­aged sovereignty, your own kingdom, which everyone calls Bharat, you were the residents of that same Bharat. ⁵You ruled on this land of Bharat with Father Brahma.

⁶For many births, you lived a life filled with happiness and peace in your own kingdom.

⁷This is why, because of being residents of the original land, you have love in your heart for the land of Bharat. ⁸No matter how poor and dusty Bharat has now become, after all, your land is your own land.

⁹So, what is the land that belongs to all of you souls and what is the land that you belonged to when you were in deity bodies?

¹⁰It was Bharat, was it not?

¹¹Do you remember how many births you have lived in Bharat?

¹²All of you have attained your inheritance for 21 births from the Father and you therefore have this guarantee for 21 births.

¹³Later, too, all of you souls took many other births in the land of Bharat because the souls who are close to Father Brahma, souls who are to become equal to him, will play their part of being the ones who are worthy of worship and worshippers with Father Brahma.

¹⁴It is you Brahmin souls who become the first devotees of the copper age.

¹⁵At the beginning of heaven, you were residents of this land, and you have been residents of the land of Bharat many times.

¹⁶This is why you have deep love for Madhuban, the alokik world of Brahmins.

¹⁷This Madhuban is the small world of Brahmins.

¹⁸So, you like this world very much, do you not?

¹⁹You don’t feel like going back from here, do you?

²⁰If an order were to be given for you to become a resident of Madhuban right now, you would be happy, would you not?

²¹Or, would you have the thought: Who will do service?

²²That you should go back for service?

²³If BapDada were to tell you to sit down here, would you still remember your service then?

²⁴Who is the One who inspires you to do service? ²⁵To follow the Father’s directions or shrimat in the way that they are given means that you are a truly obedient child.

²⁶BapDada knows whether to make you sit in Madhuban or to send you on service.

²⁷Brahmin children have to remain ever­ready in every situation.

²⁸Remain ever­ready for the direction you receive right now.

²⁹The dictates of your own mind should not be mixed with even the slightest thought. ³⁰This is known as being an elevated soul who follows shrimat.

³¹You know that BapDada is responsible for service, do you not?

³²Or, are you responsible?

³³You are free from this responsibility, are you not? ³⁴Or, do you have a little burden? ³⁵“I have to do such a big programme.

³⁶I have to do this.” ³⁷You don’t consider all of that to be a burden, do you?

³⁸Karavanhar is making you do it.

³⁹Only the one Father is Karavanhar and He has been touching people’s intellect and carrying out the task of world service and will continue to do it.

⁴⁰He simply makes the children the instruments because those who do something will receive the fruit of it.

⁴¹It is the children who will receive something; the Father doesn’t want to attain anything.

⁴²It is souls who are to receive the reward and also experience the fruit of service.

⁴³This is why He makes you children instruments.

⁴⁴You saw the task of doing service in the corporeal form and, you are now also seeing how the Father, Karavanhar, is working through avyakt Brahma and getting the service done.

⁴⁵The speed of avyakt service is very intense.

⁴⁶The One who is inspiring is inspiring you and you are dancing like puppets.

⁴⁷This service is also like a play.

⁴⁸The One who is inspiring is inspiring you and you, as instruments, are creating a multimillionfold reward through each step.

⁴⁹So, who has the burden?

⁵⁰The One who is inspiring it to happen or the one who is doing it?

⁵¹The Father knows that even that is not really a burden.

⁵²You refer to it as a burden and so the Father also uses the word “burden”.

⁵³For the Father, everything is already accomplished. ⁵⁴Everything is just like drawing a line.

⁵⁵Does it feel like a big thing to draw a line?

⁵⁶So BapDada enables service to take place in this way.

⁵⁷Service is also just as easy as drawing a line.

⁵⁸You are simply repeating everything; for the sake of this, you are simply playing a game. ⁵⁹Just as the obstacles of Maya are a game, so too, service is also not effort, but a game.

⁶⁰By thinking in this way, you will constantly experience refreshment in service. ⁶¹Why do people play games?

⁶²Not to get tired; they play games to feel refreshed. ⁶³No matter how big the task is, you will experience it to be like a game and feel refreshed.

⁶⁴No matter how tiring a game may be, by considering it to be a game, there isn’t any tiredness because you are playing that game out of your heart’s interest.

⁶⁵No matter how hard you have to work in a game, you feel that it is enjoyment because you are doing it with your heart.

⁶⁶Some mundane tasks feel like a burden, and you feel that you have to do that for the livelihood of your body.

⁶⁷You do that considering it to be your duty. ⁶⁸This is why it takes effort.
