14.01.1990 Weakness (carelessness in spoken words) in fast spiritual effort: Avyakt Murli points and Churning.

1. Everyone's desire is to go into the first division, no-one wishes to go into the second division.  However, there is a difference in the aim and in their characteristics.  What were the two reasons especially seen?  Firstly, the power of thought, which is the most elevated power, is not constantly used accurately for the self or for service according to the time in the task.  The second reason is in the second power which is that of speech, that is, of words: there is a lack of accuracy and power in the use of the power of speech.  And the reason for this weakness is that instead of it being put to use, you are loose (slack).  There is very little difference in the words, there is however a great difference in the result.

Churning:Power of thought, it is said, with right understanding of self-awareness, there will be right thought. Words spoken with the power of silence becomes powerful. Baba says our words should be like Aakaash vaani, as if words are spoken from space. It is always better to experience deep silence of atleast one hour before giving a speech to have a powerful effect on the audience.

In fact, in deep silence, we speak from consciousness directly instead of getting mixed with other thoughts. When we speak from consciousness directly, we speak the right words as per the need of the audience and the audience easily get the message. Baba has said in one murli like when we have deep silence, it is like we are throwing a net over the audience and the audience cannot escape from the net of silence.

2. Because of speech, there is an effect of this also on the mind.  Speech pulls the mind towards itself. 

Churning: Not only speech, all actions pulls the mind /consciousness and we lose self - awareness. When we do all actions including speech with self-awareness, it becomes powerful. One is to do actions or speech with self-awareness. And another is to do actions or speech with the experience of deep silence what we experienced in deep meditation of silence. Among these two speech, speech with power of silence is more dominating.

3. Do you remember this?  Speak less, speak softly and speak sweetly.  Do you remember this?  The sign of those who speak of wasteful things is that they will speak a lot.  They will control themselves by compulsion according to the time and according to the gathering, but inside they will feel as though someone has forced them to remain in silence.  What is the greatest damage caused by wasteful words?  Firstly, the energy of the body finishes because you use it, and secondly, time is wasted.  What habit would those who speak of wasteful things have?  They will make a small thing into a very big thing, and their way of speaking will be as though they are telling a story. 

Churning: Speaking less, softly and sweetly is possible if we can speak with self-awareness or with the power of silence. Or it is vice versa, when we speak less, softly and sweetly, we remain self-aware or we keep silence with us.

4. Because of there being the influence of Maya, those who speak waste things quickly make weak souls their companions, and so they speak to those who will listen to them.  Why?  Because such souls cannot become the ones who love solitude, they are therefore very clever in making companions.  Externally, it appears as though their gathering is very powerful and big.

Churning: When we lose self-awareness in any action including speech, it means, we are influenced by maya, it means, we lost self-awareness or the power of silence or remembrance of Baba.  Solitude is the most important requirement for spiritual effort. Even if we dont do yoga or meditation, solitude helps in more understanding of self, Baba and spiritual effort which will lead to better yoga day by day.

In solitude, we teach ourself. We are the best teacher for ourown self. There is a lot for us to be learned by our own self. Even churning has to be done by our own self which may or may not be shared with others. Churning is not to share with others but to make myself grow in worldly life as well as spiritual life.

The solitude even gives solutions to our worldly problems. In solitude, in silence, we get clarity, intuitions, ideas and Baba's touchings. In deep silence of solitude, we take right decisions.

5. Many forms of wasteful and ordinary words were observed.  One is that you indulge in jokes and laughter beyond the limit.  And secondly, taunting; to taunt someone.  Thirdly, to speak of and listen to the news from here and there.  Fourthly, together with service news, you also speak of the weaknesses of the serviceable ones.  This is mixed chutney.  You like chutney, do you not?  And fifth, words that are not yukti-yukt, words that are not in the Brahmin life dictionary.  These five forms were seen.  BapDada counts all these five as wasteful.  You must not think that it must be a good thing to joke and laugh.  Those jokes and laughter are good, when there is spirituality within it.  But, what is the benefit for the soul with whom you share your time in the jokes and laughter?  Did you pass (spend) that time, or was that time wasted?  The virtue of entertainment is good, but entertainment is only good when it is according to the person, the time, the gathering, the place and the atmosphere. 

Churning: When we understand self-awareness, know what is being a witness, understand the nature of bliss of self and God, then experiencing by the supersensous joy, it becomes easy to move away from all wastages. But unless we spend more time in solitude, it never becomes possible to have the supersensous joy. Knowing the importance of self-introspection, we may motivate ourselves to get rid of wastages.

6. Your words should be such that those who listen become like the oyster bird and say that you should speak something and that they should listen.  They would be called the invaluable, elevated versions.  Elevated versions are never many.  If you continue to speak whenever you want, they are not called elevated versions.

Churning: Being an embodiment of silence, being in self-awareness, being soul consciousness, with unlimited awareness, with experience of natural humility and mercy, whatever we speak will create interest in others. It will keep their attention focused on your words. Infact what happens is, when you stabilize in powerful form, others who look at you become bodiless and have the experience of being beyond body and mind. This experience make them forget their body and physical world and get lost in your vibrations.

To start with just practice silence atleast minimum 30 to 45 minutes and then give a speech or talk to others, to see the result. This can also be done if you want to write an article or mail.

Note: When we are faced with difficult situations, this powerful form sometimes considered as arrogance. so, in such situations, it is better to respond with the difficult people being in blissful awareness with lot of humility, being lost in love of God.

One is of being a Master and other is of being a child.

7. Check how much energy and time you accumulated, and how much you wasted through words.  When you check this, you will automatically experience the sweetness of introversion.  There is a difference of day and night between the sweetness of introversion and that of words and activity.  An introverted soul will experience himself to be the embodiment of tapasya sitting in the cottage of the forehead.  Do you understand?  There is a lot of expansion, but understand a lot in only a few words.  Achcha.

Churning: Whatever we do, Wherever our attention flows, the energy (of soul) flows. Self-awareness and being a witness is nothing but saving or keeping our energy/attention with our own self, not diverted or allowed to flow to the external objects called mind/thoughts, 5 sense organs (includes speech), physical organs, external physical objects. And being introverted (self-aware, being a witness), my first effort should be to focus more on the bliss of self or God being humble. Then the next I can allow my attention towards Godly service, Then to the least minimum, I allow my attention to the rest of my mind/thoughts, senses, physical organs and the physical world.

It is the play of attention. More we retain our attention, more powerful we remain, and more we focus our attention on divine bliss being humble without ego of even self-awareness, we become virtuous day by day and also we receive healing power from God.

It is said, even in deep silence, we are in connection with God. So, the most important is of deep silence where we even forget the soul(sun) and just become embodiment of rays of power(silence). Like the stage of being in paramdham.

By practice, we will experience the Silence and bliss (love) together known as sweet silence. At present, we might be experiencing silence and bliss separately.

8. You have to live, eat, sleep and study.  Do you need anything else?  These four are sufficient.  Do you like studying, or do you sleep at amrit vela?  Some children say: We were awake all night, and so we fell asleep in the morning.  Or, if they are doing a particular type of service, they forget about amrit vela.  So, what then accumulated?  Nothing extra was accumulated.  On the one hand, you did service, and on the other, you missed amrit vela.  So what then happened?  But you must not sit simply as a discipline and be drowsy. 

Churning: Yes, amritvela is most important. still at times if we had to do some service and miss amritvela, it is better to lose the income of self for the sake of others. But it is again an excuse. If we plan properly, sleep on time, have proper moderate food, we need not miss amritvela. When due to unavoidable reason if we still miss amritvela, it is better to do meditation whenever or whatever time we wake up. Like when BapDada used to be present till 12 midnight during new year, it is usually announced at Maduban that the next day amritvela is at 5.30am.

Om shanti.
