Om Shanti Everyone!
Everyone is ok? We are in Shantivan. Every day is a different day. We offered Bhog to Nirwair Bhai, offered him the garland of virtues which we all experience from him, and he in return said to give the gift of flowers, one to each one from the garland. That was beautiful. Actually, most of you have seen Nirwair Bhai’s cottage, called Mahadani, great donor. When you enter, generally you meet him in the room where there is some furniture like a living room and also dining table. Then recently because of his health, he had been mostly lying in the bed and meeting all of us because of his lower back problem. So the whole day, souls from different places visit him, and every day at 12 o’clock Bhog is offered to Baba for him. Yesterday I had the thought to meet Shantivan niwasis. Bhumi Bhen also had especially got toli made for them, 600. So we shared that also. One beautiful realization I had while I was talking about him, was how deeply within the self when we are full and content, and contentment means you are peaceful. I was saying generally when a situation comes, our intellect immediately gets full with very subtle questions like how can that happen? Why did it happen? It shouldn't have happened. What will happen now? It's like the intellect is full. So, we are instruments and he wants to give us direction, but our intellect is already full. So will we understand his direction, and will we be able to catch his direction. So, I realize how important it is to have yoga of intellect with Baba. Let the intellect not be occupied with different kinds of thoughts which could be very normal. They're not negative, but even for the future directions which Baba has to give; it is the intellect who has to catch them. A touching could happen, but if the intellect is busy, the mind is busy, so you won't feel that. So, it was very interesting. I realize that all of us have to keep our mind and intellect very calm and also without any traffic of thoughts. The lane has to be clear.
I remember when I was leaving in the early 1970s for foreign countries. Avyakt BapDada said that the intellect is like a phone line. So keep your line very clear so that you can hear Baba, or you know Baba is calling. I used to pay a lot of attention, but now also is the time to do that. Since then, I'm seeing that the mind and intellect should not be occupied with any thoughts or any questions. The first part of this month was to be ignorant of desires, knowledge of desires. Later on, Baba keeps saying that you have to fulfill the desires of others. Very appropriate, according to Brother Nirwair’s part. Anyone comes to see you, meet you, and has to say something, wants something, and they are not big things. Could be big, but mostly they are little. You should be able to listen and you should be able to fulfill that. If you say, “Oh, I am helpless and I can't do anything for you”, Baba said, “No, you say okay, this is the best way, this is the right way, this can be done.” So, it's very subtle. It's a new kind of concept of fulfilling everyone's desires. I don't think we have ever paid attention to that. So, Baba is saying to now have a determined thought to fulfill all the different desires of all the souls of the world. Not only those who come in front of us, but the whole world. To become ignorant of all desires means to fulfill the desires of others. So, Baba says that to fulfill the desires of others is to make oneself full; give and get. Always have the aim of becoming an idol through which everyone's desires are fulfilled. Like in temples or anywhere, even at home, people who have put the idol and they call their personal idol Isht Dev, they make all their requests to that idol. They don't just go anywhere, only go to that idol of the goddess or god. So, it is the same with us. It's not only teachers or center coordinators, but everyone, every Baba’s child, your stage, your effort is the same as everyone. So, whatever Baba is saying, we all have to become that. That is ignorant of all the desires and fulfilling all the desires of others. So, churn on that, reflect, and see how you become an idol.
Om Shanti
