Om Shanti! 

Always remember the blessing Baba has given us is ‘jewel of contentment’. I am a jewel of contentment. Contentment is as Baba said, very important in Brahmin life. Some will say I have such a specialty, but it's never used properly, it's not recognized. So, I'm not happy. There is no contentment, and I will say that I had no specialty, but I came to Baba and Baba gave the specialty and used the specialty. There are skills like in Brahmin life, everyone has skills, you are good at computers, you are good in designing, you are good in that, that is skill. A specialty is more of your nature. I remember that when we started going, Brahma Baba was there to listen to Murli, and you just listened to Murli looking at Baba with full concentration. In those days, we never took notes because we needed to look at Baba, but these days we find that people either have their phone in hand or they are writing. During Baba's days, I was sitting in the second row and Baba said, “Come sit.” So once somebody was there and then I was next. I had that seat until Baba became avyakt. As this young boy was saying, “Contentment is when you really say ‘ha ji’ to Baba.” That is what we used to do, but also then there was Baba's heart. There was such a natural pull in relationship with Baba. So I think that our vibrations, like contentment, are creating such a beautiful relationship and atmosphere, love for yagya. Whatever is happening, Baba knows that sometimes we feel we need to question, we need help. However, why should I be discontented? I should not lose my contentment because of whatever is happening outside. So it becomes like our nature, attainment of contentment. Baba gives you, Baba uses it, and so there is such a deep feeling of gratitude that Baba made life worthwhile. One is using your life in a worthwhile way, but the other is Baba making our lives worthwhile. From our heart, we have that kind of contentment because Baba loves us, that's why Baba will help you to play that role. Baba gave me this role to play. I'm looking at the souls sitting around me and I'm seeing each one. If we think this way, we find so many treasures and specialties that Baba gave us, and Baba is using them for service. So no discontentment for even service or anything, and Baba is saying that, “Contentment is the special attainment of Brahmin life.” If there isn't contentment and then joy or happiness, there's no benefit in being a Brahmin. Baba says that Brahmin therefore remain content and make everyone content. There is real happiness and real service in this. We are task oriented, so we keep ourselves busy in Baba’s service. Another seva is when you have contentment when anyone who comes in contact with you or speaks to you, Baba says that is the real joy in serving and that is real service also. We can think more about it. We have 24 hours to contemplate, to experience and inculcate real joy of doing real service, what is real service? 

Om Shanti
