03/04/95 Om Shanti Avyakt BapDada Madhuban Revised 23/5/74
Only those who remain beyond limited attractions and personalities are true Vaishnavs
(followers of Vishnu).
Are you able to stabilise yourself in the stage of retirement and go beyond sound in one second? In the same way asyou easily come into sound, are you able to go beyond sound just as easily? No matter what the situations are, whatthe circumstances are, or what the storms of the elements are like, whilst all these are taking place, whilst seeingthem, hearing about them and experiencing them, are you able to remain unshakeable, constant and peacefulinternally to the same extent as the external storms? It is not a big thing to remain peaceful in a peaceful atmosphere,but to remain peaceful in an atmosphere of peacelessness is known as being an embodiment of knowledge, anembodiment of peace, an embodiment of remembrance and an embodiment of all virtues. Even though there may bevarious reasons, you should be an embodiment of solutions. This is called the visible, practical form of effort. Haveyou become such mahavirs or have you just become virs (warriors)? What stage have you reached? Can you see thestage of a maharathi in front of you or close to you or can you see yourself as being equal to the Father?
In being equal to the Father, there are three stages numberwise. One is to be equal, next is to be close and the thirdstage is to be in front of. Where have you reached? The sign of those who are equal is that, in one second, they areable to do whatever they want and how they want and are doing this. The second stage is of being able to setthemselves in a few seconds, rather than just one second. The third stage is of being able to set themselves in a fewhours or a few days. Those who are equal to the Father, who are constantly equal to the Father, know and accept theimportance of the self, the importance of all the powers of the self, the numberwise stage of all the effortmakers andthe importance of the donation of virtues, the donation of the wealth of knowledge and of one's own time. They areembodiments of knowledge who know their own actions, their sanskars and their nature. Have you become suchembodiments of knowledge?
The extent to which you have the desire and keenness to listen to and relate knowledge and also create chances; doyou have an equal desire and do you create as many chances of stabilising yourself beyond sound to the same extent?Does this desire emerge within you automatically or does it emerge according to the time, according to the problemsor according to the programmes which are made? What would be the first sign of those who have reached the firststage? Because of being absorbed in the experience of this stage, even the thoughts of such souls will not be touchedby any personality or by the attraction of limited attainments. If the attraction of any limited attainment tries to havecourage to touch even the thoughts, what would you call this? Would such a soul be called a Vaishnav? Those whotoday are Vaishnavs by name observe many precautions. They do not allow themselves even to be touched by certaintypes of people or things. If, due to some reason, they are touched by these things, they consider it a sin. You are thetrue Vaishnavs whose activity is according to your name and those who become the embodiment of whateverthoughts you have. Can anyone have the courage to even touch such Vaishnavs? If you are touched by this, thensmall sins are committed. Such subtle sins become instrumental in preventing the soul from reaching its elevatedstage. Because sin means a burden, it does not allow you to become an angel; it does not allow you to stabilise in theseed stage or in the stage beyond sound. Nowadays, the majority who call themselves maharathis put forward thiscomplaint or ask the question in their hearttoheart conversation at amrit vela: Why am I not able to experience thepowerful stage that I should? Why does this stage only remain for a short time? The reason for this matter, whichdoes not allow you to become equal to the Father, is subtle sin.
Actions performed under the influence of the five vices are said to be sinful actions or sin. They are a gross form ofsin. In the same way, the five elements also attract the deep and subtle effortmakers, the maharathis, towardsthemselves and become instrumental in making them commit sin. It is easy to understand and conquer the five vices,but to remain beyond the attraction of the five elements takes special effort for the maharathis. Only when you knowthese ten things and attain victory over them will you be able to celebrate the true Dashera (burning of tenheadedRavan). The tenth day of victory (Vijayadashmi) is a memorial of this stage. The maharathis should be checking in asubtle way. The eight jewels will also be revealed as such victorious jewels. Little mistakes are visible practically.What is visible in those who are deep and subtle effortmakers? Nowadays, what is the royal slogan of the royaleffortmakers? Who would be called a royal effortmaker? The word "royal" is used for someone who wants royaltyor every facility easily. Those who make effort on the basis of the facilities provided or on the basis of attainment arecalled royal effortmakers. Royalty also has another meaning. Those who are royal effortmakers at present willhave to pay royalty even in the land of Dharamraj. What is the sign of a royal effort maker through which you cantell whether you are a royal effortmaker or not? Others do not have to know this; you yourself have to know this.Just as those with physical royalty adopt many forms, in the same way, royal effortmakers adopt many forms and arevery clever. They will adopt a form according to the time. However, in their royalty, there will not be any reality;there will be a mixture. They will not be able to stabilise themselves in a constant stage. What games do such royaleffortmakers play? They go up and down a lot. One minute their stage will be very elevated and the next minutetheir stage will be the lowest. In the stage of ascent, they will have the part of a hero and in the stage of descent, theywill also be a hero in becoming zero. What is the activity of such effortmakers? They themselves remain under theinfluence of the elements and the vices, they become a fearless form of Maya for a temporary period and speak offearful things to others. What is their slogan? "I will do this, I will do this". They say this in a threatening way.They consider it their duty to have activity and words which instill fear. Never become such royal effortmakers.Never go into the company of such royal effortmakers, because souls who are influenced by Maya attain from Mayathe blessing of the speciality of bringing effort making souls into their company and influencing them. Consider suchcompany to be the worst bog which, externally, is very beautiful, but which, internally, destroys everything. This iswhy at the present time, BapDada is warning you children of the royal form of Maya in advance. Constantly remaincautious of such company and be clever in front of it. Maya is also, at the present time, engaged in creating a rosaryof such royal effortmakers. She is looking for her beads very carefully and with fast speed. Therefore, do notbecome a bead of Maya's rosary. If you come under the influence of any such bead of Maya, you will be left asidefrom becoming a bead of the rosary of victory. Now, the selection of both the rosaries is being carried out with greatspeed. One is of Maya and the other is the rosary of victory of the Father. At such a time, you need to pay attentionall round at every second. Do you understand?
To such constant and true effortmakers; to those who remain honest with the true Father; to those who constantlyremain distant from the attraction of the five vices and the five elements; to those who easily stabilise themselves inthe stage beyond sound; to the victorious beads of the rosary of victory; to those who constantly remain in thecompany of the Father; to those who remain in the company of the Truth and who remain detached from wastefulcompany; to the lovely children of such a Father, BapDada's love, remembrances, good morning and namaste.

Slogan: Make truth your companion and your boat will never sink. Questions and answers from revised course avyakt murlis.
Question: What two powers enable you to attain success easily?
Answer: The power of truth and the power of coolness. These two are the basis of easy success. On the one hand, have the elevated intoxication of the power of truth. Then, on the other hand, to the extent that you haveintoxication, on the basis of your coolness, cool down souls who have the wrong intoxication or anger. Nomatter how much they say, "I, I", due to the intoxication of arrogance, instead of saying "I", they will beginto say, "Baba, Baba".
Question: What is the result when you try to prove something without coolness?
Answer: When you try to prove something right without having coolness, then other souls consider this to bestubbornness, because today, every human being in the world is burning in one or another fire. First of all,cool down souls who are burning in such a fire. Only then, on the basis of coolness, will they be able toknow the truth.
Question: What are the signs of the power of coolness?
Answer: The power of coolness means the power of spiritual love. With the coolness of love, a mother reforms herchildren no matter what they are like. The power of coolness cools souls who have been burning in anytype of fire and makes them worthy to adopt the truth. Those who are the embodiments of the power ofcoolness protect themselves from any wastage or accident. Those who have the power of coolness, withthe shade of their coolness, constantly give others rest through cooperation.
Question: Which fire is becoming intense? What are the four types of fire that will be ignited in all four directions?
Answer: The fire of vices is becoming intense. On one side, there will be the fire of destruction. On the second side,there will be the fire of the vices. On the third side, there will be the fire of attachment to the body, bodilyrelations and material comforts. And on the fourth side, the fire of repentence. All around, you will onlysee these four types of fire. At such a time, everyone will come running to you, the goddesses of coolness,who have the power of coolness. So, become the goddesses of coolness who finish the fire all around;become those who give the blessing of coolness.
Question: What is the method to save yourself from all these four types of fire?
Answer: 1. The method to save yourself from the flames of destruction is the power of fearlessness.Fearlessness will prevent you from fluctuating under the influence of the flames of destruction. On the basis offearlessness, you will be able to give the power of coolness to souls who are afraid of the flames of destruction. Thesouls will be saved from the fire of fear and will dance in happiness because of the power of coolness.Even whilst seeing destruction, they will see the scenes of establishment.
The method to save yourself from the fire of the vices is to remember your original and eternalclan. I am a completely pure, satopradhan soul who belongs to the clan of the eternal Father, and a deitysoul of the original clan.
The method to save yourself from the fire of attachment to the body, bodily relations and materialcomforts is to make Baba your world. When Baba alone is your world, everything else becomes withoutessence.
The method to save yourself from the fire of repentance is to become an embodiment of allattainments. Lack of attainment makes you repent. When lack of attainment finishes, repentence alsofinishes. So check yourself in all these four aspects, for only then will you become the cool yogis, thegoddesses of coolness, the embodiment of coolness who finish the burning of others.
