Wonder through the Balance of Connection and Correction.

Teachers should pay special attention to two aspects. What are the two aspects? Firstly, that you have a connectionwith Madhuban, the Father and the divine family, according to the code of conduct. A connection according to thecode of conduct is that whatever thought you have or action you perform, you should have the practice of having itcorrected at every moment. The two things are, firstly, an accurate connection, and, secondly, to pay attention tocorrecting yourself at every moment. If, one of these two aspects is missing, you will not be able to become anembodiment of success. In order to correct yourself, you need to have a constant stage of detachment. If you do notgive correction as a detached observer, you will not be able to have an accurate connection. Therefore, check whetheryou are constantly correcting yourself in every aspect at every moment. One is the connection of the intellect whichyou call the pilgrimage of remembrance. The other is performing actions in the corporeal world whilst in connectionwith your corporeal family. Both connections should be accurate. Is your connection in the corporeal form accordingto the code of conduct? Within the spiritual family, if, instead of having a soul苞onscious connection, you have aconnection based on body consciousness, then that connection is not accurate.

Those who know how to correct and connect maintain constant spiritual intoxication. They would have a balance ofbeing loving and detached. Look at the circus: a balancing act has become such a wonderful method of earning anincome. They show balance as a wonder, an art. So, here too, if there is balance, there will be a wonder and also anincome. If there is even a little bit more or a little bit less, then neither would it be a wonder nor an income. Whenyou are cooking something, if everything is not of the right amount, then no matter how beautiful the dish mayappear, it would not taste delicious. In order to make your life elevated and successful, maintain balance, that is, letthere be equanimity.

Secondly, you should be able to make your form powerful according to the problems and the time. If the situation isone that you need to face, then become an embodiment of the power to face. You should have such a practice. To bea teacher means to have balance. You should have the power to adopt any form according to the time. What wouldyou call it if where love is needed, you adopt power, and where power is needed, you have love? It means you do nothave the power to adopt the right power according to the time. In that case, there is no result of service nor is thereany success. In order to become a number one teacher, first of all, imbibe something yourself and then tell others. Itshould not be that you don't do anything, and yet you keep on telling others. Before you give a direction to others,check whether that has been inculcated within yourself. If you tell others to be tolerant and you are not tolerant, thenyou cannot be called a teacher. A teacher means a teacher who teaches. If you, yourself, are not an embodiment ofthe teachings, you cannot be an accurate teacher. Constantly remember the slogan: A teacher means an embodimentof the teachings and one who maintains balance. Now, you have to become a teacher of quality. Your vision shouldnot be on the quantity. Quality can become instrumental for everyone's benefit. Now, you don't have to increase thequantity of teachers, but their quality. Do you understand?

Blessing: May you be an embodiment of authority who brings benefit to many souls with the intoxication of yourmost elevated position.The most elevated position is to be a child of the Almighty Authority. When you have the intoxication of thisposition, the subservience to Maya will finish. By becoming an embodiment of this authority, you can bring benefitto any soul. Those who constantly maintain this intoxication attain the fortune of the kingdom for all time.Constantly have this authority with you and the world will bow down in front of you.You cannot bow down to anyone.

Slogan: With the awareness of Karavanhar Baba, finish the consciousness of "I".

Questions and answers from Avyakt Murlis

Question: How can you relate the essence of all the points of knowledge in one word?

Answer: The essence of all the points is to become the form of a point.

Question: What double attainment do you experience by stabilising yourself in the form of a point?

Answer: The form of being a point is to have a powerful stage where you don't have any waste thoughts. A point also means to let the past be the past. Through this, you perform elevated actions and because ofnot having any waste thoughts, your speed of effort is fast. Therefore, consider everything andallow the past to be the past. All wasteful seeing, listening and speaking should finish. Let yourpowerful eyes be open, that is, you should have the stage of a detached observer.

Question: What is the yukti to become like a lotus?

Answer: Whilst seeing anyone's weakness, don't influenced by the atmosphere created by that. To do this, you should have the vision and attitude of mercy for that soul, not a vision of opposing that soul. Thatsoul is under the influence of some mistake and so it is not his fault. When you think in this way,that situation or that soul will not influence you. This is known as being detached like a lotus.

Question: What should you do to become an embodiment of success?

Answer: Do not seek revenge from anyone but change yourself. You have to become a mahavir, but engage in battle. To be engaged in battling means that when someone says or does something, you begin to havewaste thoughts about that: "What did you do? Why did you do this?" This is known as battlingwith your thoughts and words. To let go means to bow down. So, only when you bow down willothers bow down to you. Do not think that you are constantly bowing down to others, and yet noone has any regard for you; that those who do not bow down are not honest, yet constantly receiveregard; no. That is only temporary. Now have a far貞ighted intellect, for the more you bow downto others, that is, the more you imbibe the virtue of humility, the more those souls will bow downto you throughout the kalpa. In the golden and silver ages, they will look at you with regard forthe king; they will not bow down to you physically, but will have that regard for you in theirmind. And, in the copper and iron ages, they will bow down physically.
