Daily Murli for Sunday 18 July 2021

⁰ 18/07/21 Madhuban Avyakt BapDada Om Shanti 16/02/88

¹Constantly maintain enthusiasm (utsah) and celebrate with festivity (utsav).

²Today, the Father, the Lord of the World, (Vishweshwar) has come to celebrate a meeting with His elevated creation of the world and the elevated original jewels, the extremely loving and close children.

³All the souls of the world are the children of the Father, the Lord of the World.

⁴However, Brahmin souls are extremely loving and close souls, because Brahmins are the original creation.

⁵Together with the father, Brahmin souls incarnate into a Brahmin life and become co-operative souls in the Father’s task. ⁶Therefore, BapDada has come today to celebrate the birthday of the children incarnating into Brahmin life.

⁷You children are dancing in happiness with zeal and enthusiasm, celebrating the Father’s birthday.

⁸BapDada is pleased to see this Brahmin life of the children and how, with love and co-operation from the Father, they are moving forward with courage in every task.

⁹So, you are celebrating BapDada’s birthday and the Father is celebrating the children’s birthday.

¹⁰It is also the birthday of you Brahmins, is it not?

¹¹Double congratulations from BapDada as well as from Jagadamba and all the special elevated souls, your companions of the advance party, as well as a shower of golden flowers of love, for your alokik Brahmin life. ¹²These are congratulations from the heart, not just words.

¹³Therefore, congratulations from the heart of the Father, the Comforter of the Hearts, to all the elevated souls, whether they are seated personally in front of BapDada or whether they are in front of the Father in their minds. ¹⁴Congratulations, congratulations to all the children everywhere.

¹⁵On this day, devotee souls have special awareness of the point form of the Father.

¹⁶Shiv Jayanti or Shiv Ratri is not the memorial of a corporeal form, but, it is of the importance of the incorporeal Father, the Point of light, who is worshipped in the form of a Shivalingum.

¹⁷All of you also always have the awareness of the point form of the Father in your hearts.

¹⁸So, you are points and the Father is also a point. ¹⁹So, on this day, every devotee soul in Bharat is especially aware of the importance of the point form.

²⁰A point is extremely subtle and it is also extremely powerful. ²¹This is why the Father, the Point, is said to be the Ocean of powers, virtues and knowledge.

²²So, the waves of special enthusiasm for the birthday from the hearts of all of you children have been reaching BapDada from amrit vela.

²³Just as you children, as embodiments of love for the Father, especially hoisted the Father’s flag for service, what flag has the Father hoisted?

²⁴All of you have hoisted Shiv Baba’s flag. ²⁵Will the Father hoist the same flag?

²⁶This responsibility of service in the corporeal form has been given to you children.

²⁷The Father has also hoisted a flag, but which one and where?

²⁸BapDada has hoisted the flag of love for all the children’s specialities in His heart.

²⁹How many flags would He have hoisted?

³⁰No one in this world can hoist as many flags.

³¹It must be such a beautiful scene.

³²The flag of the speciality of each child is flying in BapDada’s heart.

³³It isn’t just all of you who have hoisted a flag; BapDada has also hoisted a flag.

³⁴What happens when you hoist this flag?

³⁵There is a shower of flowers.

³⁶When BapDada hoists the flag of love for the children’s specialities, what shower takes place?

³⁷Each child is showered with the blessings, “May you be imperishable, may you be immortal, may you be unshakeable and immovable”.

³⁸These blessings are BapDada’s imperishable and alokik flowers.

³⁹BapDada has even greater happiness than you children for this day of incarnation, that is, for the day of Shiv Jayanti.

⁴⁰There is happiness and more happiness, because the memorial of this day of incarnation is celebrated every year. ⁴¹However, when the Father incarnates in the corporeal body of Brahma, then BapDada, but Father Shiva in particular experiences special happiness after being separated from you close, loving children for such a long time, while He was in the supreme abode. ⁴²There are other souls in the supreme abode too, of course. ⁴³However, the souls of the first creation, the ones who are to become equal to the Father and are companions in service, meet Him once again after such a long time since incarnating (at the beginning).

⁴⁴The elevated souls who have been separated for a long time come and meet Him once again.

⁴⁵When you meet someone from whom you have been separated and whom you love deeply, you experience a special happiness.

⁴⁶The day of incarnation is a day to meet His original creation once again.

⁴⁷You understand that you have found the Father and the Father says, “I have found My children.”

⁴⁸The Father is proud of His first creation.

⁴⁹All of you are the first creation, are you not? ⁵⁰You are not warriors, are you?

⁵¹All of you are the sun dynasty, the first creation, are you not?

⁵²You become deities from Brahmins, do you not?

⁵³So Brahmin souls are the first creation.

⁵⁴All are the eternal creation; souls of the whole world are the creation.

⁵⁵However, you are the eternal and the first creation.

⁵⁶So, you have double intoxication, do you not? ⁵⁷Today, BapDada is giving a special slogan.

⁵⁸Today is said to be the day of a festival.

⁵⁹People celebrate Shiv Ratri or Shiv Jayanti as a festival.

⁶⁰Always remember this slogan of the day of the festival: Every moment of Brahmin life is a moment of festivity.

⁶¹Brahmin life means constantly to celebrate a festival, constantly to maintain your enthusiasm and give souls enthusiasm with your every action.

⁶²So, you have to celebrate a festival, remain enthusiastic and give enthusiasm to others.

⁶³Where there is enthusiasm, no one can move those souls away from that enthusiasm, no matter what type of obstacle comes in front of them.

⁶⁴When you have temporary enthusiasm, you forget everything else, do you not?

⁶⁵At a time when you are celebrating something, you experience happiness and you don’t remember anything else.

⁶⁶So, in Brahmin life, every moment is a festivity, that is, every moment is spent with enthusiasm.

⁶⁷In that case, would anything else come up?

⁶⁸When you go to limited celebrations, what do they have there?

⁶⁹They have dancing, singing, games and food. ⁷⁰That is all there is, isn’t there?

⁷¹So, what do you do throughout the day in the celebrations of Brahmin life?

⁷²When you do service, you do that while considering it to be a game, don’t you - or do you feel it to be a burden?

⁷³In today’s world, when souls without knowledge do even a little bit of mental work, what do they say? ⁷⁴“I am very tired. ⁷⁵I have got a lot of pressure of work on my head.” ⁷⁶However, what do you say when you return after doing service?

⁷⁷“We have come back after eating the nourishing fruit of service.” ⁷⁸This is because, when you become an instrument for the greatest service of all, then the greater and the more beautiful is the instant fruit of service that you receive.

⁷⁹When you eat instant fruit, you receive even more power.

⁸⁰Your power of happiness increases. ⁸¹This is why, no matter how hard the physical work may be, or it may even be mental work, making plans, you don’t feel any tiredness.

⁸²You are not even aware of whether it is night or day.

⁸³If you didn’t have a watch, would you know what time it was?

⁸⁴You are celebrating with festivity and, therefore, service gives you enthusiasm and enables you to experience enthusiasm.

⁸⁵In Brahmin life, firstly there is service and what is the other thing?

⁸⁶Maya comes.

⁸⁷You are laughing hearing Maya being mentioned, because you understand that Maya has a lot of love for you.

⁸⁸You don’t love her, but she loves you.

⁸⁹In a celebration, you also watch games.

⁹⁰Which game does everyone like a lot nowadays?

⁹¹You play many games of Mickey Mouse.

⁹²Even advertisements are shown in the Mickey Mouse games.

⁹³People either like to watch a match or Mickey Mouse games.

⁹⁴So, here, too, when Maya comes, have a match with her. ⁹⁵Aim at her!

⁹⁶What do you do in a game?

⁹⁷A ball is thrown to you and you then throw it to someone else, and when it is caught, your team is victorious.

⁹⁸Similarly, this is the ball of Maya. ⁹⁹It sometimes comes in the form of lust, sometimes in the form of anger.

¹⁰⁰Catch it, seeing it as Maya’s game.

¹⁰¹If you play games of Maya while considering them to be games, your enthusiasm will increase, but if you see any situation of Maya as an enemy, you get afraid.

¹⁰²In Mickey Mouse cartoons, sometimes a monkey comes, sometimes a cat, sometimes a dog and sometimes a mouse, but are afraid?

¹⁰³You enjoy watching it, do you not?

¹⁰⁴So here, too, watch the games of the different situations of Maya in the form of a celebration.

¹⁰⁵What would you say if someone got afraid while watching a game?

¹⁰⁶While watching a game, if some think that the ball is coming towards them and that perhaps it may hit them, would they be able to watch the game?

¹⁰⁷So, watch the game with happiness and pleasure. ¹⁰⁸Do not be afraid of Maya.

¹⁰⁹Consider it to be entertainment.

¹¹⁰Even if it comes in the form of a lion, do not be afraid.

¹¹¹Always have the awareness and enthusiasm that every moment of Brahmin life is a festival.

¹¹²You are watching this game in the midst of that, you are dancing in happiness and you are also singing songs of praise of the specialities and virtues of the Father and the Brahmin family, and also eating Brahma bhojan with pleasure.

¹¹³No one else in the world gets food as pure and that is prepared in as much remembrance as you do.

¹¹⁴This bhojan is called the food that removes your sorrow.

¹¹⁵Bhojan prepared in remembrance removes all your sorrow, because by having pure food, both your mind and your body become pure.

¹¹⁶If impure money comes to you, it makes your happiness disappear and makes you worry.

¹¹⁷The more impure money you have - for instance, you might receive 100,000 but the worry it brings would be multi-million-fold, and worry is always said to be like a pyre.

¹¹⁸How can anyone sitting on a pyre be happy?

¹¹⁹Pure food makes your mind pure and this is why even your wealth is purified.

¹²⁰Importance is given to food prepared in remembrance. ¹²¹This is why Brahma bhojan is praised.

¹²²If you don’t prepare food and eat it in remembrance, that food would then make your stage fluctuate.

¹²³Food that is prepared and eaten in remembrance works like medicine and also like a blessing.

¹²⁴Food prepared in remembrance can never cause any harm. ¹²⁵Therefore, celebrate at every moment no matter in what form Maya comes.

¹²⁶Achcha.

¹²⁷If she comes in the form of attachment, just think that she has come to show you the games of monkeys.

¹²⁸Watch the games as a detached observer; do not allow yourself to be caught up in Maya’s spinning.

¹²⁹When you get caught up in the spinning, you get afraid.

¹³⁰Nowadays, they make little children perform such entertaining games. ¹³¹They make them climb high up and then make them come down.

¹³²So this too is entertainment; it is a game.

¹³³She may come in any form. ¹³⁴Just watch the Mickey Mouse games.

¹³⁵Anything that comes also goes.

¹³⁶Maya comes in any form: one minute she comes and the next minute she goes away.

¹³⁷As well as that, do not walk away from your elevated stage; let Maya come.

¹³⁸Why do you go away with her?

¹³⁹It is like that in a game: something will come, something will go and something will change.

¹⁴⁰If the scenes did not change, you would not like the play.

¹⁴¹Maya can also come in any form. ¹⁴²Any scene that comes definitely has to change.

¹⁴³So, let the scenes continue to change, but do not let your elevated stage change.
