Class by Bro. Surya “Using Treasures in a Worthwhile Way” * The treasure of time * The treasure of solitude * The treasure of thought * Invoking the presence of Baba * Yoga experiments * Treasure of divine wisdom * Worship-worthy ancestor souls Baba has given us a great responsibility and we must be aware of those responsibilities. God Himself, the Almighty is giving extra help to us. He has given us many, many treasures and by making use of all the treasures, we make our fortune most elevated and we get blessings from Him to be successful. The treasure of time I was remembering my experience of this Brahmin life. I noted down a very simple point from the Sakar murli in the beginning: Don’t waste your time. It’s a simple point and we have heard it thousands of times. It was a slogan in my notebook: If you waste your time, then a time will come when it will destroy you. So I used to think: What is the best thing I can do at this confluence time? Baba used to come in the History Hall and we would all sit very close to Baba; we would have long, long drishti and many blessings, so I used to see Baba and what He is. I wanted to know what God is – not who God is but what God is. What is His nature? How much pure and selfless love does He have for us? What does He want from us and what should we do for Him? When I was in front of Baba, I just kept looking at Him and thinking that this is the same God for whom I had been searching for such a long time. He is Almighty. Everything is in His hands. He can change the entire world. I used to feel in my subconscious mind that this Baba has promised to be my Friend: I am always with you; I will protect you; I will do everything for you. Normally Baba used to come every Thursday in ’69, ’70 and ’71. Many times each year, we had the opportunity to see Him in front of us and I tried my best to know what God is. He is such an Almighty power and I used to remember what had been described in Indian philosophy about the Almighty: ‘He can do everything with the power of thought’. In one version of Indian philosophy, it was said that God created a thought in His mind saying: ‘I am alone and the world should come into existence’. And then the world was created with the power of thought only. This is so mighty and powerful and I used to talk to myself and say: Such an Almighty God is my Father! He says: I am yours, I am for you. Everything of Mine is for you – all My powers and blessings are for you. So sitting in front of Baba, I used to talk to myself in this way and this is the way I learned not to waste my time. This is such a wonderful time because we are living our life in the company of God. We are enjoying His Company and can achieve everything from Him for our 84 births, so we should not waste our time. I made a promise that I will never waste a precious moment of this confluence age. Then I learned how to use time in Baba’s service, yagya service, in churning and yoga practices. I started to make an hourly chart in 18th June 1970. Baba gave a murli saying: You are the greatest VIP’s and when you see the Ministers, Prime Ministers and Presidents of this world, their timetable is always fixed. When we see a Governor, who comes to Gyan Sarovar, a minute-to-minute program is made and we get the program list. We also need to follow that as they also follow that. When the Ministers and Governors make such a timetable to make use of their time, then you, the great souls, the most VIP souls, also must make a timetable for your mind and intellect and for the first time I made this timetable. On the basis of Baba’s many points given in Avyakt murlis, I promised that every hour I would do this. With a chart like this, I did all the practices that Baba gave in the murli; I did them every day, 16 types of practices in 16 hours. The treasure of solitude I enjoy my time and yoga very much. I have no interest in gossiping, sitting around or going here and there and in this way. Solitude pulls me. As soon as I go into solitude, I realize that solitude has become the best blessing for my life. I achieved many things in solitude. I used to finish my work in the kitchen very fast and then I would go out onto the rocks in solitude. At that time, we did not know what Baba’s rock was and then we found it and said: This is Baba’s rock. I used to go to Honeymoon Point in solitude and I went on all peaks of Mt. Abu alone but I did not know that panthers and lions were there. Later on, I came to know that I should not go alone, but one aim that I had was that I had to become fearless. So in this way, I used my time churning in solitude and in good practices of yoga and thus, I’m sure I can say, with full determination, that throughout the cycle, time will cooperate with me. We should note down this point: if we use this time properly and nicely for our progress or in Baba’s service, time will cooperate with us. We will never say that this is not a good time or a hard, bad time for me. We will always experience good, fortunate times throughout the cycle. So we know how to use this beautiful time. The treasure of thought The best and biggest treasure for us is the treasure of thought. Two words Baba uses for thoughts are ‘power’ and ‘treasure’. We must have so many elevated and high thoughts in our mind so that we can feel and experience that our thoughts are real, true treasures. You might have noticed one very deep point from Baba’s murli about money. Knowledge is wealth and Baba says that those who have this wealth of knowledge here will have a lot of wealth in the future. Those who have gems of knowledge now will easily get money in this world also. We can do an experiment and bring these versions of Baba into our experience. We will not have to work hard to make money in this life; it will come to us. I used to say to all Brahmins (also a point of great intoxication for us) that when we remember Baba, He comes down to us. Do you accept it? It’s not just that we only remember Him, but as soon as we remember Him, He comes down to us. God can come down to us when we invoke Him. Will wealth not come to us if we invoke it? Am I right or not? We are the masters of nature and wealth is a part of nature. In fact, if we become the master of nature, wealth will come behind us. We need not work hard to make money to achieve wealth in our life and those who give wealth for Baba; you know that wealth is multiplied here. Baba comes down when we invoke Him. Remember this point. Invoking the presence of Baba: I used to teach this to everyone: This is a very good opportunity for all brothers, sisters and mothers in your homes every day. At least three times a day, invoke BapDada down. Just sit for yoga for five minutes, talk to Baba and ask Him: Baba, come down into my home. Feel that BapDada appears and see Him in a beautiful form - light and might is spreading out from Him. Stand up and ask Him to take you around your home. Take Him into every room and ask Him to give drishti to everything here. Take full enjoyment of this for 4 or 5 minutes. You will feel as though Baba has come in Diamond Hall. Do this three times every day and if you do it continually for 15 days, you experience that the vibrations of your home become very spiritual; full of peace, purity and might. If you practice so that God comes down three times a day every day then it will become very true. I have taught this practice to many Indian mothers and they had wonderful feelings. Their home has become like a temple - a peace house and if their relatives or friends enter their house, they experience that their home is wonderful. They say: Oh, what is there in your home? It is very peaceful. So, on my request, for at least 15 days, everyone must do this. Will you do this? Baba will come down into your home and He Himself will solve all problems. Where there is the presence of God, victory and success will be there. When there is any problem, invoke BapDada in front of you. I do this nowadays; I have made this my nature, my habit. I ask BapDada to come down and I have experienced many times that in five minutes only, everything is solved. It’s a beautiful yukti or blessing from Baba: “Now I am for you. In bhakti I was for the devotees and now at this confluence, I am for you”. Don’t forget these words. The treasure: Yoga experiments We come to the point again of the treasure of thoughts. From every day’s murli, we all must find many good points of knowledge for our own life first. We listened to a very deep three days ago. Do you remember that Baba said: My main job is to give a current to everyone? Get a current from Baba at Amrit Vela and give a current to everyone at night. If you see another soul, give them a current. * We should experience what the magic is in seeing souls in everyone’s forehead. It is a simple tapasya to see everyone as a soul and then see what happens to them or us. * All Brahmins must collect a big treasure of elevated thoughts and points of knowledge. Write them down. I note down in my personal notebooks the points of inspiration and intoxication from the recent murlis and I read them in ten minutes. So all ten murlis are revised every day in only ten minutes and in this way, I feel that oh, Baba has said this important thing. * You must become such a transparent mirror in which people can see God. In this world, there is no mirror available in which God has appeared, but you have to become such a clean mirror that they can see God. Invoking the 8 powers When you were born on your birthday, Baba gifted you with all eight powers. You are master almighty; invoke your powers; they will come to you; make use of your powers. When God can appear in front of you when you invoke Him, why would not all powers come to you? So I practised this and will share with you that all Brahmins can use all eight powers like this. Remind yourself: Baba has blessed me with all powers. I am the embodiment of all powers. I am master almighty, a king, sitting on the throne. Be in this feeling and awareness. Invoke all eight powers in front of you and feel the powers in the form of kings standing in front of you. They are in your service and then you can give them an order to go somewhere and solve a problem, e.g., go there and help this person. This person is sick and cannot tolerate the pain. Go there and help him to tolerate the pain. Such and such a Brahmin soul has become weak. He’s thinking of leaving Baba. Go to him and give him a divine intellect. Help him so that he can imbibe purity and other dharna in his life. Help him to collect boldness, daring and strength in his life. You will experience that it works. All powers - go and help others. This is a way to make use of our powers in order to strengthen, empower and solve the problems of many souls and divinize many people’s lives. We have achieved many things in our life, but we have to bring them into experiments. Success of experiments will ensure that you can do this in this way. Treasure of divine wisdom and divine intellect We have got such treasures of knowledge for our intellect. Our intellect must be full of this divine wisdom. We know so far that we had been asking God to give us a divine intellect and to give us wisdom. Mothers in India used to ask the goddesses to give wisdom and an intellect to their children so that they could get good marks in their exams. Now God has come down and is distributing to us a divine intellect and divine wisdom. It is our responsibility to make ourselves full of that wisdom so that it will last forever. You can see many intellectuals in this world, but they don’t have a divine intellect or divine wisdom - their intelligence creates tension, problems and peacelessness for them. We may not be very intellectual but they have got divine wisdom. They have become divine; you can see many. They were not intellectual in their lokik life, but after coming to Baba, they have become most intelligent. Dadi Janki is now about 90 years old, but you know that her intellect is very divine. It is not an old intellect; her intellect is always fresh and new. We used to say that, oh, in this old age, she has got such a wonderful, beautiful, divine, unique intellect but she was not intellectual in lokik life. So Baba has given a divine intellect to souls. By churning knowledge, by collecting such gems from Baba’s murli, we can divinize our intellect with the power of thought. You have heard many things about this. A mobile phone uses sound waves only. The vibrations of powerful souls; the vibrations of souls who have been blessed by God; the vibrations of very pure souls influence so much; beyond our imagination. We do not have any instrument to catch them, so we cannot measure or calculate those vibrations. For example, if you are in the feeling of master almighty stage, most powerful, equal to God, BapSaman, you can then create a thought about any person – a good thought. We should then believe that this thought will reach them and affect them immediately. In this way, we can change the mentality of others; we can change their mind and intellect; we can inspire and help others by giving our good vibrations to them. This is a service we have to do, but the very important thing is that we should not waste our thought energy. We have so many thoughts in a day – more than 60,000 thoughts in a day and a lot of energy is used in creating those thoughts. If we concentrate our mind and create fewer thoughts, that energy is saved and we can become very powerful. We can understand that, if we concentrate our thoughts and stabilize our mind in one thought, our brain will become divine. This is the importance and significance about concentration. Worship-worthy ancestor souls Now I will take you towards two practices of this season that are very important for us. Baba has mentioned two things in many murlis that are points of higher consciousness. Baba said: * You are the ancestors. * You are worship-worthy souls. Do you believe that you are ancestors? Ancestors mean the souls who came at the beginning of golden age. We can understand it in this way: Suppose I came at first in the beginning of golden age and I had a family, then my family had two more families and they became four families, then they had families and four changed into eight. I have, in this way, a great big kalpa tree behind me and each ancestor soul has his/her own kalpa tree behind them. Millions of souls have very close relationship with us in the entire cycle. At least 2, 3, 4 or 5 million and our stage, our feelings, our weakness, our negativity or our positivity will all influence them. If we are very pure, they will find purity easy. If we enjoy Amrit Vela, all will enjoy and if we sleep, all will sleep. If we are careless, all will become lazy and careless. If we are alert and enthusiastic, all will feel happiness in their life. Do you feel this to be so? So our weakness will become the weakness of many souls and our qualities will give qualities and power to many souls of this world. In one murli of this season, Baba mentioned: You are the great, great grandfather; master seed; you are in the roots of this kalpa tree. You have to sustain this entire kalpa tree; you have to give power and vibrations to souls of all religions; not one religion or just the deity religion, but all religions. It’s your responsibility. We have to feel it, so I will give two visions to you that we have practiced in our group: * When you sit in yoga make a vision that the entire kalpa tree is over your head and your yoga vibrations are going to each branch and each leaf. You will then enjoy yoga very much. This is the inverted kalpa tree. Roots are up the top and all religions are down the bottom. I am sitting on the top (the roots) and Baba’s vibrations are coming to me and from me, they are spreading through the whole kalpa tree. It’s a great way to give energy, peace, love and support to all souls of all religions. So we are great, great grandfathers, most elevated souls and our thoughts must be very, very great. Such great souls, such master great, great grandfather souls, such responsible souls cannot have simple things like ego, ‘I’ 'ness, clashes, negative thoughts or hatred for others. We have to bring benefit to all. We can say that the roots are selfless. So those who are the roots (ancestors) must become selfless. Everything is for others and nothing is for the self. Brahma Baba had a very simple ordinary room to live in; it wasn’t like now; it was a simple hut like poor people. He wore a simple dress; no pomp or show and everything was for others; nothing was for the himself. Those who are great, those who want to become great, those who want to do such responsible service for this world must adopt this slogan: Nothing is for me but everything is for others. Om Shanti. ________________________________________________________________________________ Sister Rajni – Having a Generous Heart
_________________________________________________________________________ Meaning of a Generous Heart Do all of you have a generous heart, do you have:
The best example of generosity is the SUN. The sun always gives without any condition – it gives without boundaries. Hearts and flowers are images that generate the feelings of a generous heart. We will discuss this topic on three levels:
Baba mentioned in the avyakt Murli today what it means to have a generous heart. To have unconditional love is to never have a thought of expectation. Let go of the thought that only if others give will I give - this thinking belongs to the business world, not to Brahmin life. Have a heart that continues to stay beyond – beyond sound. As Baba says of Mama, she was always living with Baba beyond sound. One story I learned from Adi Dev’s Book, was about Brahma Baba’s uncle who gave in an incognito way in his lokik life. There is a saying : one hand gives and the second hand does not even know. Many people give in order to have name and fame. They want it to be in newspapers or on a nameplate; people should know. Even though this is donation, we cannot say it is charity. Generous heart means going beyond name, fame, honour, recognition, appreciation, and the thought of giving based on understanding. The understanding behind is that what I give automatically will come back to me. I don’t need to think that I have donated so much. I even go beyond the fruit of the action. The basis of Generous Heart is cleanliness – a very clean heart is needed. Although at times something not in words but at the level of thought disturbs us. A generous heart is one that is constant and always giving, free from obstacles. Baba gave the definition of determined thought today. A clean heart is based on the determination to keep a quality of thought that is unconditional and free from obstacles. In the lokik life, we see lokik people who have a generous heart. The mother and the father give sustenance to their children however in the back of their mind they have a thought that they will grow old. They want the children to look after them and help them. For their whole life, they sacrifice for their children but there is the expectation, desire and thought that their children will help them. Alokik relationships When we become alokik, the spiritual thought of giving emerges in terms of wealth, relationship, actions and mind. How much we are giving depend upon each one of us. To give the heart has to be empowered by Baba, for this, we have the Murli and Yoga daily. We can see Baba’s heart through the Murli. The words that Baba speaks always enrich us. Baba is not giving us any physical things such as money but Baba gives us such beautiful, rich, spiritual feelings that we don’t think we need anything else. He enriches our heart in different ways, giving us encouragement and guidance, and when we are enriched and empowered, we can enrich others. To continuously be empowered I must be with Baba who is the comforter of hearts and has the richest heart. So I need to be always in connection with Baba. I need Baba’s wisdom, so by churning knowledge, our mind and intellect is empowered. Then there is lokik life, for example, a shopkeeper was very rude, so the customer told the shopkeeper: “If you don’t give me sweets at least you should speak sweet words” – So even if you cannot give anything to anyone, at least we can speak soft and sweet words. So to give in terms of words is also a sign of a generous heart. Baba is giving us rich thoughts, words, feelings everyday so that we don’t feel bankrupt. Everyday we listen to Baba’s Murli and we do Yoga, so at every step we are becoming richer. We are the holiest, highest on high, the richest in the world, as per Baba’s versions. The BKs are richest in the World. A person told me in Japan – we are the richest people in the world because our Baba is the richest. She said this, even though the Centre, food and so on was all very simple. In this way Baba is making my heart richer and richer. Relationships – Am I rich in my relationships? How far am I generous in my relationships? Two things are needed:
If I have the thoughts and sanskaras of fighting, can it be called Generous Heart? Although I may be giving in terms of wealth, but in my relationship, this is not reflected. When sanskaras of fighting, expectation or argument are blocking me, not allowing me to give, then that is not having a generous Heart. If I have a block, I am not giving. I am taking in and being influenced by what is happening in my life. Something is not allowing me to give. Is some thought preventing me from giving? The thought can be a very old sanskara of dependency. I always want from others so when I am taking, I am dependent upon others. When I am not giving then my account goes low. According to the Law of Karma, when you give you receive. If I am not giving then you cannot expect to receive. So Generous Heart is always giving and bestowing. Take from Sun of knowledge, Baba. Even in the lokik world, we can see that the amount we receive depends upon our Karma. Our mother, father, brothers and sisters, how can they give and for how long? So I break this Karma then I can go to Baba who is the Unlimited. Baba is always giving yet He uses such beautiful words. He does not say I am giving but He says I am giving you your birthright, your inheritance, blessings and gifts. You can receive these by claiming your right, by making your own effort. Baba gives but also enables me to become worthy to receive. That worthiness depends on how much I recognize Baba, how much I value Baba’s company and knowledge Creating an Observer Stage My Brahmin life is a life of making effort. The more the effort the higher the reward. Keeping the reward in front of me inspires me to do effort by keeping Baba in front, having an observer stage will help me accumulate and this is connected again with drama. The Observer Stage is an intense effort maker Stage. Most of the time our mind rests in a comfort zone. Its old pattern of thinking is to pay no attention to what is going on in the mind. In the observer stage, I can be free from the past impressions. A free mind can receive from Baba, drama, from whatever soul is coming in front, and can learn through whatever circumstances present themselves. I become stable on drama. If I lose the Observer stage, scenes of drama can lead to sorrow and upheavals, and in these stages, I cannot give because only a happy heart can give. A heart can only be happy when it receives and receiving is based on our efforts. My effort is to always have clean and pure feelings. This requires constant attention. Anything called Maya can make me lose my clean and pure feelings instantaneously. Yüklə 219 Kb. Dostları ilə paylaş:
