To be absorbed in remembrance means to be merged in love.

Out of the whole world, do you experience yourself to be a special sparkling lucky star? You are so lucky that God Himself sings your praise. Could anyone have fortune greater than this? Do you experience yourself to have such happiness that others, on seeing your happiness, have their clouds of sorrow removed, so that they forget their sorrow and begin to swing in the swing of happiness? It is remembered that, in the company of the touchstone, iron becomeslike the touchstone. In the same way, do you experience yourselves to have the stage through which iron­aged souls,who come into contact with you, become golden­aged? Do you see in the mirror every day such a picture of yourfortune that beggars who come to you go away having become prosperous with all treasures? At what time do yousee this? At amrit vela? Do you have a fixed time for seeing this or do you see this at any odd moment whilstmoving around? How many times do you see this throughout the day? Do you look in the mirror again and again oronly once? Nowadays, it is the fashion to look constantly in a mirror. Those people look at their features whereasyou look at your future. You don't pay attention to your features, but your attention is constantly drawn towardscreating an elevated future. Do you look at the picture of your fortune to see to what extent spirituality is increasingwithin yourself. Those people look at their beauty and glamour with worldly vision to see to what extent they arelooking beautiful, whereas you look at your alokik picture to see the sparkle of spirituality.

Today, Baba has especially come to meet the residents of the far­away land, the double foreigners, that is, the childrenwho are trikaldarshi. So, this is special luck, isn't it? Do you consider yourselves to be so lucky? Do you consideryourselves to be multimillion times fortunate or a hundred times fortunate? Or, is even multimillion times nothing?What do you consider yourself to be? Say that multimillions are merged in your every step. And so, what is someonewhose every step is filled with multimillions? When you speak of any speciality or of your nobility, you say, "That isbeneath my feet. What is that compared to what I have?". In the same way, multimillions are beneath your feet. Areyou lucky to such a great extent? Even if you simply speak of your fortune, what are you becoming? Whilstremembering your fortune, you become even more elevated than the Father; you become the crown of the Father'shead. Have you seen the memorial of your most elevated stage? What is the memorial, the symbol, of your mostelevated fortune, in which you are revealed as the highest of all? In the variety­form image, the top­knot of theBrahmins is shown as the highest. Is there anything higher than the top­knot? Do those of the Shakti Army alsoconsider themselves to be just as lucky?

Baba is also happy on seeing the special fortune of the special children. Children have reached their home from alldifferent corners abroad. The children who have reached their home have finally reached their home having had thisdesire for half a kalpa. And so, seeing that the children have reached their destination, and that their desires arefulfilled, Baba is also happy.

What is the speciality of the foreign group? Baba has particular happiness to see the foreigners and their specialities,because the majority is of the people of Bharat, and even they are called foreigners. Within the majority, the firstquality are of those who, like moths, surrender themselves to the Flame as soon as they come, without even thinkingabout it. They hear the knowledge, they have an experience and they start to move along this path. Compared to thepeople of Bharat, the foreigners have this quality to a greater extent. The people of Bharat will first ask questions,then think about it and then surrender themselves. The souls that have emerged from abroad have the speciality ofsurrendering themselves like moths to the Flame. Do you understand?

It is like desperate souls sitting far­away who have found their destination; the majority of souls visible within thisgroup appear to be those who are such souls. Do you now understand your speciality? Because of being moths, youreffort is naturally of nothing but remembrance and service. This is why you are able to go fast. Do you ask the questions: "Why? What? or When?". Are you those who are going to be defeated by Maya's attackor those who are constantly victorious? You are those who will defeat Maya; not those who are defeated by Maya.Foreigners have a special lift from Baba, and because of the gift of this lift, they are going fast. Constantly keep thisspeciality with you. Instead of asking questions of "Why? or What?", constantly be trikaldarshi and then put yourthoughts and actions into a practical form accordingly. When you are trikaldarshi, your questions of "Why? andWhat?" come to an end. So, constantly remain stable in the trikaldarshi stage and constantly continue to moveforward whilst remaining absorbed in the remembrance of the one Father and considering yourself to be equal to theFather. Those who have yoga with the element of light constantly have the aim of becoming merged with the elementor becoming absorbed in the element. However, they are not able to experience this. At this time, you understand, onthe basis of knowledge, that to be absorbed in the remembrance of the Father or to be merged in love and to forgetyourself is that which has been known as becoming one. When you are merged in love, that is, when you areabsorbed in the love of One, you become equal to the Father. Those people have referred to this as merging withOne. So, do you experience this? Do you experience yourselves to be souls completely lost in the experience of lovefor the Father? What would be the experience of someone who is merged in the ocean? He wouldn't be able to seeanything but the ocean. So, to be merged with the Father, that is, to be merged with the Ocean of all virtues is knownas being absorbed in love, that is, being merged in the love of the Father. Not to become merged with the Father, butto become merged in His remembrance. Do you have this experience?

Seeing the group of foreigners, BapDada is seeing their future. What is the future of the group of foreigners? Not thefuture of the golden age ­ the future of the golden age is to become kings and queens ­ but what is their future in theconfluence age? (To reveal the Father.) But when will you do that? What date will it be? Until you fix a date, youwon't be able to create powerful plans. The Kumbhakarna of Bharat will be awakened by the foreigners. If you saythat you will think about it some time in the future, they will also say, "Yes, we will awaken later." This is why thosewho awaken others have to create their powerful plans with full force. When you set the aim of definitely doingsomething this year, they will think about awakening this year. As yet, even those who are to awaken others haven'tfixed their time. This is why those who have to wake up haven't fixed their time either. Just as those who awakenothers think, "We have to do this", in the same way, those people say, "We have to wake up; we will wake up by theend." So, what is the future of the foreigners? You have to awaken the important people of Bharat. This is the futureof the foreigners. You don't have to awaken ordinary Kumbhakarnas, but the well­known ones. Someone who hasbeen awakened and who is able to awaken many others is said to be well­known. The land, that is, the stage, is beingprepared. Now, the actors simply have to play their parts. However, the part is a hero part, not an ordinary part.When you play your hero part, the Kumbhakarnas will awaken and wonder what is going on. Achcha.

To such ignited lamps who are instruments to awaken the fortune; to those who constantly know the value of the selfand the time; to the embodiments of total success who are the invaluable jewels especially revealed in the showcaseof the world; to those equal to the Father who put every virtue into practice and use them for service; to such specialsouls, BapDada's love, remembrance and namaste.

The sign of the closeness of time is that success will be merged in every step. Even in your dreams you will notwonder whether there will be success or not. Every task is guaranteed to bring success. You will not even think:Should I do it or not? Will it happen or not? Whatever is to happen will automatically continue to happen. Successfor Brahmins is like flowers strewn on the path to welcome them. When an important person comes, they scatterflowers along the path to welcome him. Therefore, because you become special important souls, success alsowelcomes you in the same way as flowers do. It invokes you, the embodiments of success, to adopt it. Youyourselves do not have to invoke success, but success itself invokes the embodiments of success; there is thisdifference.

Personal meeting: The recognition of Maharathis through the success of the powers.

Whilst seeing the jewel on the forehead, are you able to recognise the line of fortune on each one's forehead? Youare easily able to recognise this from the vibrations of the soul that is the jewel in the centre of the forehead. You caneasily understand from their vibrations the effort and the experience of attainment of every soul. Just as somethingfragrant very quickly spreads its fragrance into the atmosphere and you are instantly able to tell whether it issomething good or not, so too, the more your discrimination power increases, the more you will instantly be able totell to what extent a soul has experienced spirituality as soon as he comes in front of you. You will also easily be ableto understand to what percentage the soul maintains the spiritual stage. Just as you can tell the percentage ofsomething with instruments of science, in the same way, with the power of silence, that is, with the power of the soul,you will be able to understand all of this. This is known as discrimination power. To discern someone through thatone's sanskars, words and activity is common, but to be able to discern someone through the vibrations of histhoughts is the real power of discernment. Do you understand? This is the discrimination power of the maharathis.

You will be able to increase this power when you are able to discern the presence of others even though they may notbe in front of you. They may be about to come or be at a distance, but even though they are at a distance, on the basisof discrimination power, you will be able to discern their presence. In other words, this is known as the success of thepowers. You will be able to attain this success. Those who have the spiritual knowledge of bhakti have the power,whereby they are able to understand what someone wishes to say even though he may not say it in words. They areable to tell in advance what someone is able to do. Similarly, here too, you will be totally accomplished with thepower of discrimination. However, you have to use these powers accurately; you mustn't waste them or use them fora wasteful task. Then this power will be instrumental to bring a lot of benefit. You will develop this power. Whenothers see someone with this power, the praise of the Shaktis, that has been remembered on the path of bhakti, willemerge from their lips: You are this, you are this. All this praise is first revealed practically and then it isremembered as a memorial. This stage will also come, but only for a few and only for a short time. This is why Babasays: Those who stay till the end will be able to see and experience these scenes. Such Shaktis will also have the partto give their finger till the end, will they not? Shaktis and Pandavs! However, it will be those who are embodimentsof power, not those who are weak. Both will take place at the same time: on one side, there will be cries of distressand on the other side, there will be victory. That will be in an extreme form and this will be in an extreme form also.Achcha.
