Feeling_of_Uplifiting_Others_2 Mohini_Didi July 2, 2024
Om Shanti Everyone!
We always have to remember that Baba has adopted us and we are mouth-born progeny Brahmins. Brahmins always have to perform certain duties. We call it service or whatever, but Mamma is bringing such a beautiful point that you don’t listen to Murli for points. Today they were the same points. There were no new points. She said to see what insight you had, that is, what has touched your intellect, what makes sense to you? So one is churning, and the second stage of churning is insight. Insight is something that is connected with subtle effort or subtle intellect. When you get it, you feel very joyful because it is like something has been revealed to you. So, I think that also brings not only joy, but sustenance to the soul. We need to listen to Baba’s Murli everyday, but while listening to Baba, He always says to be in soul consciousness, concentration, focus. It's not that I just read Murli, I just heard Murli, but while listening Mamma used to say,sunte sunte swaroop ban jao (while listening, try to inculcate also). There are two words; one is called imbibing, that is, the intellect has to absorb. The other is inculcating, practice, and bringing it into our practical life. Both are important. If I am not able to imbibe, then I can not inculcate. So that is why some consider Murli like a newspaper, I have to read it. What did Baba say? Something new Baba said? Then they start losing interest in sakar Murli. The same thing Baba said, you have to become Lakshmi-Narayan.
There was a time when I first came to the USA, I was in New Jersey, so most of the people said that when you listen to Brahma Kumaris, they will tell you about soul, Supreme Soul and to remember them. So I gave a talk and there was someone else. They said, “But this is different, it’s not the same knowledge.” I said that we took the knowledge and we are reflecting, churning, and it is becoming butter, better and better. Our own insight and sharing with others,where they find some newness and interest grows. Don’t listen to Murli because you want to know only new points. Abcd is all the same, but then vocabulary is created from them, more and more words we make, but we cannot change abc. Fundamental understanding of the knowledge will remain the same. Baba will always say the soul is a point of light. So that’s one thing that your intellect is pure and divine. That’s why we need purity and to keep the aim, what Baba taught me, never be influenced, don’t allow your intellect to be attracted or influenced, because then your capacity of insight gets lost. So that’s why we should be in our self-respect. Be yourself. You can’t be anyone else.
So it’s very nice, this point; sustenance for the self and sustenance for others. We all have to find very simple ways, like suddenly remember that we get so many blessings. Everyday we get so many blessing cards. We listen to the blessing from Murli. Remind yourself when you can’t have good yoga or anything that I have this blessing. I always remember the song; blessing upon blessing. That’s what Baba is sustaining us with, blessings. Dadi Janki used to tell me, “You are born with blessings and you are being sustained by blessings.” Any time you get lost, I find that Baba’s drishti is guiding. So you emerge that drishti and feel guided. So there are many yuktis, and one is definitely reminding yourself of your blessings on you. If you don’t remind yourself, then what happens? If you are given something, you have to use it, and using it is reminding.
Then power will come, direction will come, clarity will come, whatever is needed by the soul will happen. Baba is saying that you can sustain any soul with your benevolent attitude and feelings, no matter how much a soul defames you. You can make that soul into one who uplifts others with the sustenance you give them. No matter how impure a soul may be, you can purify that soul with your attitude of being a purifier. A mother never looks at the weaknesses or defects of her children. She always has the feeling of putting them right. Similarly, stabilize in your form of sustenance. What is the image of sustenance? Vishnu! So bring that form. Sustenance for others and you will be able to continue to make accurate progress. So Vishnu has two prominent images. One is standing with four arms, and four ornaments, double crown. The other is in a pond of milk. So our Brahma baba, with his age, in the evening, would come out in a little open space where now we take off our shoes and then go to Baba’s room. He would put his leg on leg and it was like churning. Baba would say that I would do world service. So most of us are born through those thoughts. Baba sent light-might and love to everyone. So whenever the time came when I had to rest or lie down because of my knee, I always remind myself that I am Vishnu now in the milk-pond. I am not a Vishnu who could stand all the time. You are a sustainer. I used to enjoy this and say it to everyone. Everyone was more concerned and I would say, “No, I am Vishnu. I am in the pond of milk. So that’s fine.” So have this feeling of being a sustainer, so that you can sustain others.
Om Shanti
