Avyakt murli for Monday 7 March 2005

⁰> > 07-03-2005 Om Shanti Avyakt Bapdada Madhuban

¹Today, Father Shiva has especially come to celebrate the birthday of his saligram children.

²You children have come to celebrate the Father’s birthday and BapDada has come to celebrate the children’s birthday, because the Father has a lot of love for you children.

³As soon as the Father incarnates, he creates the sacrificial fire and a sacrificial fire cannot be completed without Brahmins.

⁴This is why this birthday is alokik, unique, and lovely.

⁵There has never been any other birthday throughout the whole cycle where the birthday of the Father and the children is on the same day, nor can it ever be possible.

⁶The Father is incorporeal. ⁷On the one hand, he is incorporeal, and on the other hand, we celebrate his birthday.

⁸It is Father Shiva alone who does not have a body of his own, and this is why he incarnates in the body of Father Brahma, and it is this incarnation that you celebrate in the form of a birthday.

⁹So, have all of you come to celebrate the Father’s birthday, or your own birthday?

¹⁰Have you come to give congratulations, or to receive congratulations?

¹¹This is the promise of remaining together, made by the children to the Father.

¹²Now, at the confluence age, you have the combined company, your incarnation is at the same time, you are carrying out the task of transformation together, and you are also returning home together.

¹³This is the form of the love of the Father and the children.

¹⁴Devotees also celebrate Shiva Jayanti, but they simply call out and sing songs.

¹⁵You don’t call out. ¹⁶Your celebration means to become equal.

¹⁷To celebrate means to continue to fly with constant zeal and enthusiasm.

¹⁸That is why this is called a festival.

¹⁹A festival means to maintain enthusiasm.

²⁰So, you are always celebrating: that is, you always maintain your enthusiasm, do you not?

²¹Is it all the time or only sometimes?

²²In fact, the breath of Brahmin life is zeal and enthusiasm.

²³Just as you cannot stay without breathing, in the same way, without zeal, Brahmin souls cannot stay in Brahmin life.

²⁴You experience this, do you not?

²⁵Look, you have especially come running from so far away, just to celebrate this birthday.

²⁶BapDada doesn’t have as much happiness of His own birthday as he has of the birthday of you children.

²⁷This is why BapDada is giving each one of you children platefuls of multi-million-fold happiness and congratulations.

²⁸Congratulations! ²⁹Congratulations! ³⁰Congratulations!

³¹On this day, BapDada is also remembering the true devotees a great deal.

³²They keep a fast for just one day, whereas you keep a fast of complete purity for your whole life.

³³They keep a fast of food, and you also keep a fast of the food of the mind, which are waste thoughts, negative thoughts and impure thoughts.

³⁴You have kept a firm fast, have you not?

³⁵The double foreigners are sitting at the front.

³⁶Kumars, speak! ³⁷Have you kept a firm fast? ³⁸Is it firm?

³⁹It is not weak, is it?

⁴⁰Maya is also listening.

⁴¹All of you are waving your flags, and Maya is watching you waving your flags.

⁴²When you keep a fast - of definitely having to become pure - then to keep this fast means to make your attitude elevated.

⁴³As is your attitude, so is your vision, and your actions automatically become like that.

⁴⁴So, you have kept such a fast, have you not?

⁴⁵Pure and clean attitude, pure and clean vision: when you look at one another, what do you look at?

⁴⁶Do you look at the face or at the sparkling soul in the centre of the forehead?

⁴⁷One child said that, when he has to speak to others, or when he has to do something, he has to do that whilst looking at the face, and that the vision goes towards that person’s eyes. ⁴⁸However, sometimes, seeing the face, your attitude changes a little.

⁴⁹BapDada says: together with the eyes, there is also the forehead. ⁵⁰So can you not speak to the soul whilst looking at the centre of the forehead?

⁵¹Now, BapDada is sitting in front of you, so can you tell whether he is looking at your eyes, or at your forehead?

⁵²They are both together.

⁵³So, look at the face, but look at the sparkling star in the centre of the forehead on the face.

⁵⁴Therefore, keep this fast. ⁵⁵You are keeping this fast, but now pay more attention.

⁵⁶You have to speak whilst looking at the soul: the soul is speaking to the soul.

⁵⁷The soul is looking at the soul.

⁵⁸Then your attitude will always remain pure, and, together with that, the other benefit is: that, as is your attitude, so is the atmosphere created.

⁵⁹By creating an elevated atmosphere together with your own effort, service is also done.

⁶⁰So, that is double benefit, is it not?

⁶¹Create such an elevated attitude that, no matter how vicious or impure someone may be, he is transformed by the atmosphere created through your attitude.

⁶²Let there always be this fast in your awareness and in your form.

⁶³Nowadays, BapDada has been looking at the children’s chart. ⁶⁴Instead of creating the atmosphere through your own attitude, sometimes the children become influenced by the atmosphere created by others.

⁶⁵What is the reason for that?

⁶⁶In their heart-to-heart conversations, children speak very sweet things. ⁶⁷They say: I like that one’s speciality, I receive a lot of co- operation from that one. ⁶⁸However, that speciality is a gift from God.

⁶⁹Whatever attainments and specialities you have in Brahmin life, they are Prabhu-prasad (an offering from God), they are God’s gifts.

⁷⁰So you forget the Bestower, and you remember the ones who are the receivers.

⁷¹Prasad (holy offering) is never anyone’s personal possession. ⁷²This is called Prabhu prasad (special offering received from God).

⁷³It is not said to be “prasad of so-and-so”.

⁷⁴You receive co-operation, and that is good, but at least do not forget the Bestower who enables you to receive co-operation.

⁷⁵So, are you keeping a firm fast for this birthday?

⁷⁶Has your attitude changed?

⁷⁷Complete purity - this is keeping a real fast, and making a promise.

⁷⁸So check: you are observing the fast of the big gross vices, but are you free from their little children?

⁷⁹Generally, householders have more love for their grandchildren than their children.

⁸⁰You Mothers have love for them, do you not?

⁸¹So, you have conquered the big forms, but their little, subtle forms do not attack you, do they?

⁸²For instance, some say: “I am not attracted, but I do like it...

⁸³I like that thing more, but I am not attracted to it”.

⁸⁴Why do you especially like it?

⁸⁵So, check that there aren’t any traces of impurity left in little forms.

⁸⁶Because, from a trace, sometimes a whole progeny can be created.

⁸⁷When any vice comes, whether in a big form or a small form, there is just one word that causes it, and that one word is “I”: the “I” of body consciousness.

⁸⁸Through this one word “I”, there is arrogance, or, if there is not complete arrogance, then there is anger, because the sign of arrogance is that that one is unable to tolerate even one word of insult towards him, and he therefore gets angry.

⁸⁹So, devotees offer a sacrifice, but, on this day, whatever limited consciousness of “I” you have, sacrifice that to the Father, and finish it.

⁹⁰Do not think: “I have to do it anyway... ⁹¹I have to become that anyway...”. ⁹²Do not think about doing it some time in the future.

⁹³You are powerful. ⁹⁴So be powerful, and finish it.

⁹⁵It is not anything new. ⁹⁶How many cycles - and how many times - have you become complete? ⁹⁷Do you remember?

⁹⁸It is not anything new.

⁹⁹You have become that every cycle. ¹⁰⁰You are becoming what you have already been. ¹⁰¹You simply have to repeat it.

¹⁰²You have to create that which is already created, and this is why it is called the predestined drama.

¹⁰³It is already created, and you just have to repeat it now, that is, you have to create it.

¹⁰⁴Is this difficult or easy?

¹⁰⁵BapDada believes that you have the blessing of the confluence age: easy effort.

¹⁰⁶Through the blessing of easy effort in this birth, you will automatically attain an easy life for 21 births: BapDada has come to liberate every child from labouring.

¹⁰⁷You have worked hard for 63 births. ¹⁰⁸Therefore, now, with God’s love in this one birth, become free from labouring.

¹⁰⁹Where there is love, there is no labour, and where there is labour, there is no love.

¹¹⁰So, BapDada is giving you the blessing of being an easy effort-maker, and the way to become free is love: love for the Father from your heart.

¹¹¹Be absorbed in love, and the great instrument (yantra) is the mantra of Manmanabhav.

¹¹²So, use this instrument.

¹¹³You know how to use it, do you not?

¹¹⁴BapDada has seen how, through God’s love at the confluence age, you have received so many powers and virtues, so much knowledge and happiness. ¹¹⁵Therefore, use all of these treasures and gifts from God at the right time.

¹¹⁶So, did you hear what BapDada wants?

¹¹⁷That each child should be an easy effort-maker: easy, and also intense.

¹¹⁸Use determination: “I have to become that... if I don’t become that then who will?...

¹¹⁹I was that, I am that, and I will be that, every cycle”.

¹²⁰You definitely have to adopt such firm faith in yourself.

¹²¹Do not say that you will do it at some point: you definitely have to do it.

¹²²It has to happen.

¹²³It is already accomplished.

¹²⁴BapDada is pleased to see the children of this land and abroad.

¹²⁵However, he is not just seeing you children who are personally in front of him. ¹²⁶He is also seeing all the children everywhere, of this land and abroad.

¹²⁷The majority of birthday greetings have come from everywhere. ¹²⁸Baba has received cards, e-mails, and also thoughts from the heart.

¹²⁹The Father sings songs of the children, and you also sing, do you not: “Baba, you performed wonders”. ¹³⁰Therefore, the Father also sings the song: “sweet children performed wonders”.

¹³¹BapDada always says that you are sitting personally in front of Baba, but those who are sitting far away are sitting in BapDada’s heart.

¹³²Today, in the thoughts of the children from everywhere there was just: Congratulations! ¹³³Congratulations! ¹³⁴Congratulations!

¹³⁵This sound was reaching BapDada’s ears, and the thoughts were reaching his mind.

¹³⁶These are not just cards: cards are just the namesake... the letters are just the namesake. ¹³⁷However, they are very great gifts, even greater than diamonds.

¹³⁸All of you are listening and are becoming pleased.

¹³⁹So you have all celebrated your birthday.

¹⁴⁰Whether you are two years old, or one year old, or one week old, this is the birthday of the establishment of the yagya.

¹⁴¹All Brahmins are residents of the yagya.

¹⁴²This is why BapDada is giving all the children lots and lots of love and remembrance from his heart, together with blessings. ¹⁴³Always continue to be sustained with blessings, and continue to fly.

¹⁴⁴It is easy to give and receive blessings, is it not?

¹⁴⁵Is it easy?

¹⁴⁶Those who feel it is easy, raise your hands!

¹⁴⁷Wave your flags!

¹⁴⁸So, you don’t let go of these blessings, do you?

¹⁴⁹The easiest effort of all is to give blessings and receive blessings.

¹⁵⁰Yoga is included in this, knowledge is included in it, dharna is included in it, and service is also included in it.

¹⁵¹All four subjects are included in giving blessings and receiving blessings.

¹⁵²So, double foreigners, it is easy to give and receive blessings, is it not?

¹⁵³Is it easy?

¹⁵⁴Those who have been in knowledge for 20 years since you first came here, raise your hands!

¹⁵⁵It is 20 years that you have been coming, but BapDada is giving you all multi-million-fold congratulations.

¹⁵⁶From how many countries have the children come?

¹⁵⁷(Fro, 69 countries). ¹⁵⁸Congratulations! ¹⁵⁹You have come from 69 countries to celebrate the 69th birthday.

¹⁶⁰It is so good.

¹⁶¹There wasn’t any difficulty in coming here, was there?

¹⁶²You came here easily, did you not?

¹⁶³Where there is love, there is no labour.

¹⁶⁴So, what special blessing of today will you remember?

¹⁶⁵Easy effort-makers.

¹⁶⁶Anything that is easy is done quickly.

¹⁶⁷Work that requires a lot of effort is difficult and therefore takes time.

¹⁶⁸So, who are all of you?

¹⁶⁹Easy effort-makers.

¹⁷⁰Say it! ¹⁷¹Remember it!

¹⁷²When you return to your countries, do not get engrossed in labouring.

¹⁷³When you have any work to do that requires labour, then say from your head “Baba, my Baba!”, and the labour will finish.
