    Brahma Kumaris Murli English 21 May 2017

    21/05/17 Madhuban Avyakt BapDada Om Shanti 01/04/82

    The basis of fortune is renunciation.


    Today, BapDada, the Bestower of Fortune, was seeing both the fortune and the renunciation of all His children. What have you renounced and what fortune have you attained? You know that in return for one- fold renunciation, you receive a return of multimillion-fold fortune. When children who know the deep meaning of renunciation, renounce even a little, a very clear and long line of fortune is drawn. There are different stages of renunciation. In fact, your becoming Brahma Kumars and Kumaris is also a renunciation and, in return for this, you have received the fortune of a Brahmin life. In this respect, just as all of you are called Brahmins, so too, all of you have become souls who have practiced renunciation. However, there is a number in renunciation and there is therefore also a number in attaining your fortune. All of you are called Brahma Kumars and Kumaris, but someone becomes the number one bead of the rosary and someone else becomes the last number bead, even though all are Brahma Kumars and Kumaris. All of you have renounced your shudra life, so why is there a difference between the first number and the last number? Whether someone is moving along whilst living at home as a trustee, or whether someone has become free from the household and, and is living as a server at a centre, whether someone is a trustee or a server, both types of Brahmin souls are called Brahma Kumars and Kumaris. The surname of both is the same, but the basis of the fortune of both is their renunciation. It cannot be said that to become a server and live at a centre is the most elevated renunciation or fortune. Even trustee souls can claim very good numbers in the rosary through their attitude of renunciation. 

    But a trustee has to be one who is truthful and has a clean and honest heart. Both have a right to attain their fortune, but the basis of drawing a line of elevated fortune is to have elevated thoughts and to perform elevated actions. Whether you are a trustee soul or a server soul, both of you can claim a number on this basis. Both of you have full authority to create your fortune. You can create whatever fortune you want to whatever extent you want. At the confluence age, according to the drama, time has received a blessing from the Bestower of Blessings. Anyone who has the desire can become one with an elevated fortune. To become a Brahma Kumar or Kumari means that you bring your fortune with you from birth. The moment you take birth, your star of fortune is sparkling on the forehead of each one of you. This has become your birthright: to be a Brahmin means to be fortunate. However, the extent to which you increase the birthright that you have attained, or make the star of your fortune sparkle even more or make it elevated, depends on your own efforts. To imbibe and use in your practical life the rights of fortune you have received in your practical life means to increase the property you have received from the Father; earning it or using it up depends on each one. As soon as you take birth, BapDada gives all of you the same property of fortune and the same elevated blessing: “May you be fortunate”. All of you children are given the same title: Long-lost and now-found, beloved, lovely child. He hasn’t said to some: “You are a long-lost and now-found child” and to others “You are not a long-lost and now-found child!” However, your number is created by looking after the property and increasing it. It isn’t that Baba gives ten times multi-millionfold to the servers and only two times multi-millionfold to the trustees. He says: All of you are multi-million times fortunate.

     However, to look after the treasure of fortune means that you imbibe it whereas to increase the treasure of fortune means to use it for service through your thoughts, words and actions. It is in this way that a number is created. All of you are servers. All of you are embodiments of dharna - but you are numberwise in becoming that. Some have become full of all virtues and some have become full of some virtues. Some are constant embodiments of dharna and some are sometimes embodiments of dharna and at other times embodiments of fluctuation. When they adopt one virtue, they are not then able to use another virtue at the same time. For instance, you may need the power to tolerate and the power to accommodate at the same time. If you simply imbibe the power or virtue of tolerance but are not able to use the power to accommodate at the same time, and then say, “Well, I have tolerated that for so long; is this a small thing? Only I know how much I have tolerated”. So, if after tolerating it, you were unable to accommodate it, and you didn’t use the power to accommodate, what would happen? You would speak about it here and there that that one did this and that you did that. So, you definitely performed a wonder (kamaal) in tolerating it, but you spoke of the wonder you performed and turned it into chaotic confusion (dhamaal). This is because, by speaking about it, you first become body conscious, and secondly you think about others. You do both of these things. In this way, if you imbibe one virtue and not the other, you are then unable to become the an embodiment of dharna that you want to become. Because of this you are not always able to imbibe the treasures you have received, that is, you are unable to look after them. Not looking after them means you have wasted them. Some look after them and others lose them. There would be a number then, would there not? To use something for service in this way means to increase the property of fortune. In this too, all of you do service, but there is a difference between serving with a true heart and with true love and serving as a server. Some serve with a true heart, whereas others serve from their head. So, there would be a difference, would there not?

    There is the difference of day and night between doing service on the basis of having a powerful brain with many points and serving with an honest heart. Those who serve with their hearts will make others belong to Dilaram, the Comforter of Hearts. Those who serve with their heads will only teach others how to speak and make others speak. One churns and the other one simply speaks. One is a server who truly serves as a server and the other is one who serves just to earn a name for themselves. So, there is a difference, is there not? Whoever true servers serve will be given the experience of the instant fruit of attainment. Those who serve simply to earn a name will at that time attain a good name for themselves in the form of praise: “You explained that very well, you spoke very well”. However, they wouldn’t be able to give the experience of the fruit of attainment. So, there is a difference, is there not? In this way, one serves with true love and the other serves as a duty. Those who serve with true love won’t be able to stay without enabling others to forget a connection of love. Those who serve just as a duty will finish their work and complete the week’s course and give them the yoga course, the dharna course and even bring them to the point of listening to the murli, but they will not consider it to be their responsibility to enable the love of that soul to become connected to the Father. He would give course after course, but would not fill souls with any force but would think that he has made a lot of effort. However, it is a law that only those who have deep love for service are able to connect the love of others. So, do you understand the difference? This is to increase the property that you have received. Due to this, to the extent that you look after it and to the extent that you increase it, you accordingly claim a number ahead. The Bestower of Fortune distributed the same fortune to everyone, but some become those who earn and some become those who waste. Some become those who use everything up and finish it. This is why there are two types of rosary and why it is numberwise in each rosary. Do you understand how the numbers are created? So BapDada was seeing the fortune of renunciation. The wonderful game of renunciation is also unending. Baba will tell you about that at some other time. Achcha.

    To those who have an elevated fortune, to the true servers who constantly increase their line of fortune though elevated thoughts and elevated actions, to those who constantly bring all the virtues and all the powers into their lives, to those who give every soul instant fruit, that is, to those who make every soul an embodiment of attainment, to the elevated renunciates and those with an elevated fortune who constantly look after and increase the rights and treasures they have received from the Father, to the constant servers who are embodiments of dharna, BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste.

    BapDada meeting groups: 

    1. Constantly keep this aim in your awareness: A Brahmin becomes an angel and an angel becomes a deity.

    Do all of you consider yourselves to be Brahmins and therefore angels? Do you remember that you are now Brahmins and that you will become angels from Brahmins and that those angels will then become deities? To become an angel means that whilst in a corporeal body you stay in the form of light, that is, with your intellect you remain constantly in the stage up above. Angels don’t set foot on the ground. How will you stay up above? With the intellect. Let the foot of the intellect always be in an elevated stage. Are you becoming such angels, or have you already become those? You are Brahmins anyway. If you weren’t Brahmins, you wouldn’t have got permission to come here. However, to what extent have you Brahmins adopted the angelic stage? Angels are shown with bodies of light. The more you consider yourself to be a soul, an embodiment of light, the more you consider yourself to be as light as you walk and move around, the more you will feel as though you are an angel walking in a body of light. An angel means to be one who has no connection with the awareness of his own body. To break your connection with body consciousness- not from the body, but from the consciousness of the body – means to be an angel. When your connection with the body is broken, you will then leave here. However, at the moment, your connection with the consciousness of the body has to be broken. You will then love this life a great deal and Maya will not attract you in any way. Achcha.

    2.Maintain this self-respect: We are the flowers of Allah’s (God’s) garden.

    Do you constantly move along while considering yourself to be a flower of BapDada’s, that is, of Allah’s garden? Ask yourself: Am I constantly a spiritual rose who is constantly spreading spiritual fragrance? Everyone finds rose fragrance very sweet and it spreads everywhere. That is something physical and perishable whereas you are true imperishable roses. So, do you constantly keep spreading the imperishable fragrance of spirituality? Constantly maintain this self-respect: We have become the flowers of Allah’s garden. No other self-respect is greater than this. “Wah my elevated fortune!” Continue to sing this song. You have made a deal with the Innocent Lord and so you have become clever, have you not? Who did you make yours? Who did you make a deal with? How big a deal did you make? You claimed all three worlds in your deal. In today’s world, even the wealthiest of all cannot make such a big deal. You are such elevated souls.Continue to move along while keeping this greatness in your awareness.

    3.The duty of Brahmins is to donate happiness and to become great donors.

    The greatest treasure of all is the treasure of happiness. You generally donate the treasure you have. You simply have to continue to donate the treasure of happiness and those you give happiness to will repeatedly thank you. When you donate happiness to unhappy souls, they will sing your praise. Be a great donor and share the treasure of happiness. Awaken those who are like you and show them the path. There is no Brahmin life without service. If there is no service, there is no happiness therefore remain busy in service. Definitely donate to someone or other. Let it be that you cannot even sleep without having donated something.

    Question: 

    Which children can be threaded around BapDada’s neck in the form of a garland?

    Answer: 

    Those who have around their necks, that is, those from those whose mouths the Father’s virtues, the knowledge that the Father has given and the Father’s praise constantly emerge, and who only relate what the Father has spoken. Only such children become a garland around BapDada’s neck and remain garlanded around His neck


    Blessing:

    May you be constantly free from obstacles and have success in all tasks with the power of silence and by harmonise your sanskars.

    Only those who see the Father and follow the Father can be constantly free from obstacles. Fluctuation only comes when you see a sister or brother. So, now follow the Father, make your sanskars exactly like those of the Father and perform the dance of harmonising your sanskars and you will remain constantly free from obstacles. No matter how big an obstacle may be, with the power of silence and by your remaining quiet, it can easily be removed and all tasks will automatically be accomplished.

    Slogan:

    One who doesn’t see a situation in terms of one aspect and who considers there to be benefit in every situation is called trikaldarshi.
