clarification of Murlis--11 |
The song: 'This pilgrimage of ours is unique'
The children heard this song. To check on the level of the childrens understanding of the knowledge such songs should be played to see what meaning the children make out of them. These songs have to be corrected as well. Baba has made us understand that these songs are so good that if someone were worried or unhappy but by listening to these songs they would feel happy again. Baba has said not all the film songs but some are very good. Especially the old ones because old is gold, the old film songs. Why did Baba keep on choosing the old film songs? Why not the new film songs? Because the old songs were satopradham compared to the new ones. The old songs were satopradham and as time passed even the songs started to become tamopradham as a result of lust increasing and polluting the atmosphere of the world to become dirty. The new songs start to lose their meaning and become worthless. The old songs however are worthy and very useful and they will be very helpful to you when you sit in yaadh. When they are so useful and helpful then why only the new songs are being played when we sit in remembrance instead of the old one? Why have they left out the old songs, which Baba used to play? Baba says they are very useful and helpful yet they have been put aside and not played where as new songs are being used.
There are 2 types of souls, some souls are paramarthi (selfless and close to Paramatma) and some souls are swarthi (selfish, out for their ownselves, far away form Paramatma). Amongst the souls the ones who are the oldest of old they are close to Paramatma and are paramarthi. The ones who come later definitely will be swarthi; they are the ones who get converted into other religions later. These types of selfish souls want to reveal their ownselves first by hiding the father. They will not find the fathers directions loving. So Baba has said that these old film songs are very very helpful, some of them but not all of them. By listening to them you become more aware. Now you children know that you are the lucky stars of this world. There are 2 types of stars, stars in the sky and stars on this earth. There are lucky stars and unlucky stars. In the man-made Gita it is also written that there are some sinful souls who keep taking births again and again and again in hell only and that they never have the fortune to see heaven. That is why these souls say about the first heaven created by Godfather himself, that happiness of heaven is like the droppings of a crow. Only a few souls are lucky and many many others are unlucky. Our pilgrimage is very different from the residents of the bhakti cults.
What is the difference between pilgrimage (teerath) of gyan and the pilgrimage of bhakti? The word teerath means: teer means the other side examples, Ganga teer, Jamuna teer etc and teerath means a pilgrimage place, which takes you across, or give you salvation. Will this place be up or down here? Surely it should be in this world but the father himself has to be here, then only can you be taken across. No one can reap benefit without the father of the world. Our pilgrimage leads us to where our father resides. Where there is father, the father of the world there is our pilgrimage place. A pilgrimage is done to go across and only the father can take us across. This is the difference between the pilgrimage of bhakti and the pilgrimage of gyan.
In this world Bap, Teacher and Guru; these 3 relationships, are considered to be the most beneficial. Concerning all 3 the father always wants his children to go higher than himself and never says I go higher and my children go down. In the same way the teacher wants his student to progress more than himself and never does he say I go higher than my student. Likewise the same with the guru who wants his follower to become better than him even, not that I become higher and that my followers remain behind. Bap, Teacher and Guru all 3 have these good wishes to put others higher than themselves. These 3 are the most beneficial relationships. Now the father plays all these 3 parts through one body. There are 3 roles but the one who plays them is one and he plays them through one form. Through this one he becomes the father who gives birth, through the same one he also becomes the teacher who explains and clarifies gyan properly and through the same form he becomes the satguru, the one who gives liberation in life and takes us across with him. Three names Bap, Teacher and Satguru are for 3 different roles, which Shivbaba plays when he comes on this earth. This is a unique thing from the rest of the world. In this world a father cannot be a teacher but sometimes the father is a teacher of his children then he cannot be the guru because here this is a unique thing. As a father he is responsible for birth in the beginning and in the end he gives the inheritance. He is also a teacher who explains the poetry and the prose. Our poetry is the murli where the prose is the avyakt vaani and it is his role as a teacher to explain them to the children. He is a supreme teacher and there can be no teacher greater than him because no one is capable of teaching him. In the same way he is the father of all the fathers and there cannot be father above him. Lastly in the end he plays the special part of satguru, the one who gives liberation.
There are 2 words, durgati (degradation) and satgati (liberation). How does he do satgati? It has been said in the murlis that your bodies will keep on decaying and the souls will keep on becoming powerful. While the body is decaying can you call it the stage of satgati? After taken gyan should this happen? Baba is the father of souls only so he first does the satgati of the souls only. Atma means mind/ intellect therefore, first he does the satgati of mind/intellect. What is meant by the satgati of mind/intellect? It can be recognised by the thoughts. If mind/intellect is still stucked in the body and bodily connections from morning till evening and also during sleep while dreaming if one keeps on remembering bodily beings this is the stage of durgati. So we have to see for ourselves whose directions are we following and whose company are we keeping. Are we being colored and affected by this company and these directions? Are worldly thoughts settling in our intellects? We might be going away from the real efforts that we should be making. Are we heading towards durgati? Satgati can only be achieved through the satguru and the first sign of satgati that the satguru father is teaching us now is that when you find the satguru the intellect should be heading towards satgati, meaning in the mind there should definitely be deep churning. This can only happen if you have recognised the satguru father otherwise there cannot be deep churning in the intellect. All human beings of this world when they come into this world they start falling down taking their followers in the downward stage as well. Only one satguru Parampita Paramatma who stays in a nirakari stage whilst being in a corporeal form is capable of taking us to such nirakari stage that we learn how to stabilize in the thoughtless stage and also our stage of deep churning becomes better and better. Now what is this pilgrimage place (teerath), which is unique from the bhakti cult? What is the difference? The bhakti cult guru or guides or priests take pilgrims to such pilgrimage places where there are deed images, statues etc. There are no living Devtas but our pilgrimage is such that on reaching it we find the living image of God or the living Devta. Whether you call it Shankar or Lakshmi and Narayan or Jagadamba, these can be called the living images (chetanya murti). They only sing and talk about it that we are going to God but in practical they do not go to him.
You are the pandav army. Whose children are you? The children of Panda, the pandavas. The children of Brahma are called Brahmins; the followers of Vishnu are called Vaishnavs. In the same way pandavas are the children of Pandav. Pandav means the guide who takes you across. Where does he take you? He takes you on a true pilgrimage and when reaching there, for sure, the mind and intellect form of the soul achieves the stage of satgati. On the other pilgrimages there are many many armies of pandavs (guides). Here although you are the army of pandavs, the Panda is only one. Armies of pandavs are not here. Over there every group has one panda (guide). All religious fathers are pandas. All these bodily religious gurus are pandas of their own very groups. In the outside world the pandas have big books and they can tell people their fathers, grandfathers and great grandfathers names/ They also you first, which cast do you belong to and then they reveal all the names of the fathers, grandfathers and great grandfathers etc to you. Each one takes on only his own cast members and not of other casts. If someone takes a member of someone elses group then there is a fight amongst the pandas. They say such and such name and his family history is in my register, why did you take him away? So many pandas are there. What is the unlimited meaning of all this? Whatever rituals are in Bhakti marg, the foundation of that can be seen in the sangamyugi world of Brahmins. They too take people to the mountains on a pilgrimage. There too they have dead images. Instead of the stone statues they have translight pictures there and they take people to have visions of them. No living God is present there. Just like they have books in the outside world these Brahmins too have books with their names in it. If someones thoughts are different from theirs then they are not accepted in their group and are not taken on the pilgrimage. Your name is the pandav army. You are spiritual guides and they are bodyconscious (jismani) guides. Pandavs do not have a kingdom (Rajdhani). Dhani means dharna shakti, so it means the power, which is required to rule the kingdom. You do not have that as yet. It is meant here as are the human being habits, nature and sanskars, so shall be their kingdom. If your habits, nature and sanskars are not elevated, your kingdom will not be elevated either. Pandavs means panda also. Father is an unlimited Panda. Panda is a guide. Pandas take others to the pilgrimage places.
If someone is a panda of Muslim religion he will take you to Kaba or Ajmer Sharif (Rajasthan). The word Ajmer means: aj means goat and mer means sheep. Brahmas statue is also in Ajmer. This land of Ajmer is of goats and sheep where lots and lots of goats and sheep gather . This is the place where Muslims have their mela (gathering). The name musalman stands for the one who believes in musal, which is missile and man means to believe. They do not believe in anything else other than musals and bombs. Whether you call them musals or atom bombs it does not matter. Only when these explode then these souls will believe in Baba and not before. In the Brahmin world what are the musals and the atom bombs? They are the musals and bombs of defamation, which are filled with such poisonous gas of defamation that on smelling them one dies straight away. When these bombs of defamation explode the Islamis are first to die. Out of the foreign religions, Islamis is the first and the most powerful one. The kingdom of Islam stretches for 2500 years and therefore it rules the most. When the bombs explode these Islamis are the first ones to come back to their senses and they are also the first ones to die. In the outside world those Islamis die and in the sangamyugi Brahmin world the unlimited Islamis are the ones who die a living death first. They are the ones who come to belong to God first in comparison to other religions. Other religions do not die a living death first and become the fathers. These Islamis must also have a guide, the guide will be the one who dies first. Guides are called pandas and pandas are the ones who take you to pilgrimages and these ones can only take them to Kaba or Ajmer Sharif.
In gyan marg, you children become guides. It is not a matter of taking anyone on a physical pilgrimage. Sitting at home you can show someone the way. Sitting in your own home you can make them do the spiritual pilgrimage. It is the pilgrimage of the intellect. Supposing there is a female in bondage who has not even seen Baba and yet has recognized him sitting far away in her own home. Such matas write such nice letters to Baba, full of faith including a nischay patra (letter of faith) that it can bring tears into ones eyes. You do not have to take others anywhere. You do not have to catch them and take them on pilgrimages. You are spiritual guides.
You give such happiness to other souls that by giving them gyan that particular soul naturally starts to remember Baba. Which path do you show them? The path of Manmanabhav. Mat mana bhav are the three words: mat means mine, man means in my mind and bhav means to merge; merge into my mind. You explain to them the real meaning of the world. Who is the one who says Manmanabhav? He is the nirakari Parampita Paramatma who always stays in the nirsankalpi (thoughtless) stage. He is asking you to be Manmanabhav; your thoughts should be merged into mine. The childs thoughts should be the same as the fathers thoughts. If not then it is obvious that there is a clash of thoughts. A loving child will always have his thoughts the same as his fathers. This way when the thoughts are parallel to the fathers, the speech and actions can never go wrong. Your stage should be such that you should not even have one opposite thought to the father. Before Baba used to say when you sin in bhakti marg the punishment is double. After taking the basic knowledge if you sin the punishment is 100 times and later on since the advance knowledge started Baba started saying because gyan is now advanced and gone into depth, the punishment will be 1000 times. Now in avyakt Bapdada has started saying if thoughts are not gyanyukt and you think like agyanis, having bad thoughts this too becomes a sin for Brahmins. Why this, because now we have understood that Madhuban vibrations reach the whole world. Why the vibrations from Madhuban only? Not all the seeds are there but the seed of the whole world Prajapita definitely is in Madhuban because the Supreme father only comes into that unlimited father and reveals himself to the whole world. One father is the unlimited spiritual Bap joti bindu Supreme soul; he is only the father of the souls. Through whom does he reveal himself? Only through Prajapita whom the other religions call Adam, Adi Dev, the first human being. The whole world believes in him, so the seed of the world whatever thoughts he has, the effect of that will be on all his children. It would be the duty of the children to have the same thoughts as this father.
If the childrens thoughts are of opposing nature then think there is a war within the family (household). If there is fighting here then obviously there will be fighting in the Brahmin world as well. Baba has given a signal for this, no matter what is happening in the Brahmin world today in the future Baba will put everything right. So you children have to show this path of Manmanabhav to others. Whom do we show? First we have to give this message of Manmanabhav to those children who were Babas and then became disappointed and left the yagya. These souls have not experienced the stage of Manmanabhav. So you have to show them the path of Manmanabhav. Amongst you there will be many who have done the pilgrimage of bhakti marg, the pilgrimages where they keep the dead images. Do not forget you are spiritual guides, you are not physical guides. You work is not to catch others and to pull them into pilgrimages. Your work is to give every soul the introduction of the father. To catch them and to pull them here is not the question. When the introduction of the father sits in anyones intellect, he or she will realize that the father has come in practical and is on this earth sitting in a corporeal body in a nirakari stage, The soul will not be able to stop himself. The souls mind and intellect will start being with Baba and he will do his outmost best to reach Baba in person. If it is a female in bondage her mind and intellect will not remain there but will be with Baba, she might not be able to reach Baba in person but her mind and intellect will always be sitting with the father. So do not forget that you are spiritual guides. You do not have to pull anyone here with his or her bodies. You have to pull their soul towards Baba. The world thinks that Krishna also made the gopis run, they think this to be in a gross sense like eloping. This is defamation of Krishna thinking that he physically made them run away. Krishna is call yogiraj so his making others run after him must be an unusual game. Yogiraj Krishna made them run away with him with the power of his yog. This is not a bad thing. To make someone run away with you physically is bodyconsciousness but to attract the soul, the mind and the intellect, is a good thing. In the same way you spiritual children should give such a current to other souls that they become so happy that whilst sitting in their own homes they get attracted to Baba with their minds and intellects. Sitting at home you can show the path to others.
We are purushotam sangamyugis. We are not kaliyugi guides. Why has it been said purushotam sangamyugi for us? In this sangam we are made the most elevated out of all the souls. So when Paramatma Bap comes he will make us realize that of all the souls who make efforts, amongst them we are the most elevated. The others are not as elevated as us, the soul should realize this now. That is why the yug itself is called purushotam sangamyug, the yuga that makes us the most elevated souls. You should have this awareness and the other souls if not today then tomorrow or may be later should start realizing that compared to us this souls efforts is more elevated. You children have one thing in your intellect now that we are the pandas of mukti; we are not the ones who tie others in bondage. Paramatma Bap has come here to liberate us from the bondages and not to tie us in bondages. He is the one who liberates us and makes us king of kings. A king is never in bondage but is independent. Baba has come to make us a king and a king is never dependent (adhin) but is independent (swadhin). The dharamgurus tie us in bondage and make us adhin. Baba will take us into the land of mukti and then we will go to the new world.
You are pandas numberwise according to your efforts. Pandas are of many different types; some pandas also show you the way to a vaishalya (brothel). What is vaishalya? What does a prostitute do? She does viabhachar with her organs with many others. What are the eyes? Are they not organs? This land of Bharat where it has been said that the female-type like Sita and Savitra would not even lift their eyes to look at another male other than their husbands. Now in the same Bharat these bodily pandas and dharamgurus have started this prostitution through the eyes. Eyes are the organs, which deceive the most. These organs become instrumental (nimit) for lust, these same eyes become instrumental for anger, greed, attachment etc. These are the first organs, which become nimit for vices. These organs, the eyes should be kept under control and not left to colour themselves with different different human beings by constantly coming into contact with them. Baba has said in numerous murlis that the eyes are the ones, which deceive you the most. So some show you the way to prostitution. Pandas are of many different types. In the same place they can take you on a pilgrimage and to a journey to hell as well. Now you are first class pandas. You will never show them this kind of path. You show them the way to purity. You show them the journey with their mind and intellect to the parents, to the unlimited father. You all have to stay pure. You made a promise that you will remember none other but one Baba. You say Baba we remember only you, it should not be that by mouth you say we will remember you and in the intellect there are many others. Then it is like having a rosary of many other beads in your intellect, which you keep counting instead of remembering Baba. In bhakti marg they sit down to remember Paramatma Bap but the hand of their intellect is in the mouth of the cow (gaumukh). The mouth of the cow is very loving to them but really speaking the hand of your intellect should be towards Shivbaba and not towards the cow. You are first class pandas. You show the path of purity to everyone. You have to stay pure yourself then the dhristhi changes and becomes pure again too. You made a promise to remember one and one only and you will not remember the gaumukh either. Where is the gaumukh shown? Where the ganges comes down from. The gaumukh is shown from where the Ganges of gyan starts flowing. The name of the place is Gangotri, meaning from where the Ganges came down. There they have made a mouth of a cow. This is the remembrance of the state U P. The Ganges known as the patitpavani (purifying) Ganges is the remembrance of U P only, not of any other state. So the Ganges left the high stage to go where? On to the battlefield. What is said for the state U P in the avyakt vaanis? The state of U P has shown the game of the battle of religion. The one who shows this play of the battle of the religion must be most powerful. Children say Baba we will remember only you and on one else. Mine is one Shivbaba and none others do not mean that you should not keep connections with others. You still have connections with others because you still have to associate with them. A soul still has to relate to its mother, brother, sister etc with good manners, listen to them and respect them, yet the remembrance should be of one father. By becoming Baba's child we are taken across. By becoming Babas and by remembering him only our future will be full of happiness. Father takes us into the land of happiness. Lokik fathers take us to unhappiness but this father guarantees 21 births of happiness with happy connections. 21 births not even on birth less, not even one year less, not even one month less, not even a second less because there are no widows and widowers. We live together and give up the body together for 21 births. So this is the happiest connection, a very long happy connection. Here there is nothing but sorrow and happiness here is like the droppings of a crow. What does a crow do? It eats the dirt of human beings, which becomes its food and whatever it cannot digest it passes out as its droppings (kagvishta). So the happiness of todays world is like kagvishta. No matter what sort of happiness through any organ, it is like kagvishta.
You now study for the new world where all your connections will be new as well; there will not be any relations of this world there. All the bodily relations of this world, which the intellect is pulled to will not be there in the new world. Why is it said so, what about the couples, husbands and wives who are making efforts together now, will they not be there? No, they will not be there, couples will be formed completely new, and nothing of the old world will be there. Everything of this world is going to change. For 21 births there is going to be complete change. Nothing of this world, which we can see with these eyes, will be there. So when you are studying for the new world what will you remember? Will you remember the new things of the new world or keep remembering the old things of the old world? You now know that we will go to Muktidham first and then come back here. Muktidham means where there is the nirsankalpi stage, where there are no desires whatsoever. The desire was for God, we have found him and now we have no desire. When you reached the desireless stage it means you have reached Muktidham. After reaching Muktidham you come here again on this earth in a new world. We will definitely go home. Now where is our home? Is it up there or down here? Whenever our father is that is where our home is. The stage of the ones who are going to go home will be the desireless stage. This is a pilgrimage of the power of remembrance. You have to remember Shantidham as well, where there will be no desires and where the mind will be merged, be thoughtless and in unlimited peace. The mind only works in this world, in Paramdham there is no mind, the mind becomes merged. You have to remember Shantidham and the father. In other words, remember the home and the father of the home as well. You also have to remain very honest with the father. Honesty means truthful, faithful and dutiful. The father says it is not as if I know you from inside, what you want, what you do not want, I do not know you from inside. When you come here you are asked about your thoughts, karams etc like any sins you have committed or wrongful thoughts that you had. The father has made you understand that these eyes deceive you a lot. They are the biggest enemies out of all the organs.
You should also tell Baba, Baba my eyes deceived me a lot today. When you write you accounts of the self (pota mail) one column should be on the eyes. You should tell Baba, the eyes keep on deceiving me Baba, today I did not look upon my wife as a sister. When you become the practical children of the father, the wife is no more that wife; it is a sister because she is also a child of the father. Baba should always be given a pota mail. In Madhuban when the children come to the father in practical they behave themselves and maintain the stage of brother and sister but some when they go away to the outside world their intellect is pulled down and the eyes start to deceive them by coming into contact with the outsiders. Then they write to Baba asking for forgiveness but Baba says there is nothing to forgive, Brahmins should not behave like this. This is all for the outside world. Todays world is such that a brother does not leave his own sister alone with his eyes, some fathers have bad dhristhi for their daughters, some uncles for their nieces, gurus make their female followers dirty, teachers do it to the students, these are the things of the outside world, not for the sangamyugi Brahmin world. Baba is not happy with this. You keep on doing bad actions and you keep on asking for forgiveness. This cannot go on; you keep on making mistakes and keep on saying I am sorry. This keeps on multiplying into your account. Here shooting is also taking place and the cycle of birth and rebirth, nischay and anischay is carrying on. It started from 1936. So if mistakes are made here thousand times load keeps on adding. The result of this you will get in other births, for example today you are still making efforts to reach the stage of pure vision of brotherhood, no one has reached that stage as yet because of the load of sins on our heads. There is no need for forgiveness, whoever has done what he has done; he has to settle the accounts here. So Baba again and again first makes you understand that sex lust is the biggest enemy, it gives you sorrow from the beginning through the middle to the end. He never says that anger is the biggest enemy. The desire for lust is the biggest enemy. Baba is called the purifier (patitpavan). He must have made the impure ones into the pure ones. He must have created a yukti to finish of our sins, which have multiplied so much in sangam. The sins during the 63 births multiply little by little only but now it is thousand times over. So how will the patitpavan change us impure ones into pure ones? How will he transform our impure dhristhi into pure dhristhi?
