DADIJI'S GOLDEN RULES: ATTITUDES ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN FACTS
DADIJI'S GOLDEN RULES:
ATTITUDES ARE MORE IMPORTANT THAN FACTS
In order to develop a good Attitude, take charge first thing in the morning.
Do you say, "Good morning, Lord" or "Good Lord, morning? "
It is your Attitude at the beginning of a task more than anything else that will determine your success or failure.
It is your Attitude towards life
that will determine life's attitude towards you. Despite many people's
belief to the contrary, life pays no favorites.
You control your Attitude. If you
are negative it is because you have decided to be negative and not
because of other people or circumstances.
Act as if you have a good Attitude Remember actions trigger feelings just as feelings trigger actions.
Before a person can achieve the kind
of results he wants, he must first become that person. He must then
think, walk, talk, act and conduct himself in all of his affairs, as
would the person he wishes to become.
Treat everybody as the most important person in the world.
Attitudes are based on assumptions. In order to change Attitudes one must first change one's assumptions.
Develop the Attitude that there are more reasons why you should succeed than reasons why you should fail.
When you are faced with a problem, adopt the Attitude that you can and will solve it.
We become what we think about. Control your thoughts and you will control your life.
Radiate the Attitude of confidence,
of well being, of a person who knows where he is going. You will then
find good things happening to you right away.

There is Godly
magic in Baba’s words. What God can do, no human being can do. There
should be such faith that the highest on high is teaching. Any tests are
nothing because God is sitting next to us. No account of sin should
accumulate on your head. You should fly in a second. Whilst coming close
to Baba the soul becomes bodiless. Become so bodiless that you are just
lost in light. The Satguru takes you beyond with a glance. If for any
reason there is distress, just emerge Baba’s vision on you. There is
peace in that pure thought and you become lost in that incognito
happiness. People should ask you why you have such unlimited happiness.
Seeing your fortune everyone should want that fortune. To give knowledge
isn’t enough, you have to give happiness.
Give so much
happiness that people come running. Our life should reflect that we’ve
found the Father. They should have love for the maryadas on seeing our
life. All you should want is cleanliness and vibrations of true love. If
you’re weak people will give you anything, but no one should consider
us ordinary. Have the thought to become an elevated Brahmin. No one
should be upset with you. If you’ve done anything to upset someone,
apologise so that the vibration doesn’t spread. Don’t give sorrow to
anyone, but give happiness. Do the service that comes in front of you,
and be so content, that there are no complaints. Complaints about others
are really about your own self. Baba is so light with everyone. Baba
has given so much peace and love, so why not be like Baba and give to
others? When the heart is clean Baba will know what the heart desires.
In remembrance, there is the power of purity. When the heart is clean
you are drawn to have remembrance, then you can draw power from Baba.
Churn the ocean of knowledge so that whatever service you do, this gives
happiness. We have to ask ourselves if we are content with ourselves
and our efforts. Real effort is such that we receive Baba’s help with
those efforts. Be constantly ever-ready to go home. When there isn’t
attachment to the body, the satyug sanskara of adopting and leaving the
body easily will emerge. Baba would speak and merge his thoughts, he
wouldn’t go into expansion. Only Baba’s words should be remembered and
spoken.
These are the
things that will help us in the final moments. Everything that is given
in the yagya should be used in a worthwhile way. Those who allow loss
lose their status. If there isn’t cleanliness, what good is a nice home?
The mind and body should be clean, and we should use wealth in the
right way, not just store it away. Maintain attention and have the
intoxication of who you belong to, then Baba will look after you. This
is the Father’s yagya, so there shouldn’t be carelessness in looking
after it.
The more we inculcate Baba’s teachings, we see the benefit of that in our lives.

Dadi Prakashmani Ji Experienceon 18th January
My remarkable, unique and unforgettable experience on 18th January
— Dadi Prakashmani
Sweet Baba was always sending Dadi on
unlimited service, sometimes to one place and sometimes to another. He made
Dadi an instrument to open several centres: some in Delhi, in Mumbai, in Kolkata and in Bihar. He even
suddenly sent me to Japan. Baba’s blessings were always with me: “Child, be ever-ready every time.” There used
to be one signal: Child, you have to go
there from here, and I would say ‘Ji Baba’. Baba also used to
give some or another inspiration for service on a daily basis, and would follow
this by a direction.
Before 18th January, I was staying at the Gamdevi Centre
in Mumbai. I had just returned a few
days before with a group, and was collecting another group from Mumbai to
return to Madhuban for two more days.
Didi (Manmohini) had been sent to Allahabad for the half kumbhmela, which
was taking place on 14th January for the festival of Sankaranti.
When I arrived in Madhuban, Baba said, “Child, you have just come. Stay
for four days, and then you can
go.” In those days, Baba did not usually
allow me to stay for more than two days. I had suggested once or twice
that I
could stay for an extra couple of days, but Baba would say: “Why do you
want to stay? Do you not have any service to do? Why should
you stay here? No, go on service; fill
the cloud and go and shower.” So, when
this time Baba personally asked me to stay, I said, ‘Ji Baba’. I came on
14th January and was
supposed to go back on 16th, but Baba said, “Daughter, let the group
go. Didi isn’t here, so stay for a few
more days.” Didi used to look after the entire activities of Madhuban. Baba
made us children experienced in every aspect.
For the first time
in yagya history, in all Baba’s tapasvi life, Baba did not speak murli
on the morning of 18th January. Baba’s health had not been good since the
morning, even though he was stabilized in the most elevated stage.
Child, what will the doctor do; I am talking
to
the Supreme Surgeon
When I suggested to call the doctor, Baba
said, in great intoxication, “Child, what will the doctor do? I’m talking to
the Supreme Surgeon!” Later, he said,
“Come, let me write a letter to the children.”
Baba took out his red pen. Baba’s
beautiful letters, and replies to our letters, used to pull our hearts. Baba
wrote: “Children, always move along in unity, stay in the remembrance of One
and always keep the shaktis (sisters) at the fore. Only then will there be success in service…”
The several
children who received this last letter concealed it in their hearts. So
powerful were those souls who received a letter from Brahma, the creator of the
world, personally written with his own hand! After that, Baba held my hand and
took me around the Madhuban courtyard. The training centre was under
construction. Baba held my finger as he
showed it to me. Then, Baba had lunch,
took rest in the afternoon, met a group in the evening, then had an early
dinner at 7.30 pm. Normally, Baba used
to have dinner daily at 8.30 pm, following which he would come to class. That night, Baba gave a murli filled
with sweet lessons and teachings.
All right, children, farewell
That night Baba came to class at 8.00 pm,
and those last sakar versions merged in the heart forever. Baba
said: “Children, experience happiness as
you continue to remember over and over again.
Let all the sorrows of the body be removed. Attain liberation-in-life. Children, those who
defame us are our friends. You should not defame anyone, and never have any
enmity or opposition toward anyone.”
After emphasizing
the importance of the pilgrimage of remembrance, Baba, the father of the yagya,
stood up and walked to the gate, where he stopped and said: “Children, become
incorporeal, viceless and egoless. Just
as the unlimited Father is always viceless, always incorporeal and always
egoless, you children have to become like Him.”
The last words from
Baba’s mouth were: “Okay, Children, farewell.”
It was the only time that Baba had used such words, otherwise, usually
Baba would say, “Good night.” My attention was drawn to them as Baba turned to
go to his room in deep silence. Baba was so much in silence that he didn’t
speak to anyone. Normally, he would sit
on the gaddi, but that night Baba went straight to sit on his bed.
As his hand became slack; I continued to
say, “Baba, Baba”
I would usually not go to Baba’s room at
night, yet that day, I don’t know why, I thought I should go and wish Baba good
night. I saw Baba sitting on his
bed. Seeing me, Baba said, “Come,
daughter, come.” I hesitated to go inside because Baba was already on his bed;
perhaps he wanted to sleep soon. Baba
summoned me again, and I saw Baba was in deep silence. He said nothing, and I
also continued to look at Baba without saying anything. After some time, he
turned his body around to face me, putting his feet down on the floor. I was standing before him, and Baba reached
out for my hand. As Baba was seated, I standing, he holding my hand, he gave
such powerful drishti that I cannot describe. He continued to give drishti for 2-3
minutes, all the while holding my hand. Baba was giving such drishti
that a current of power was flowing into me. Baba appeared to me as only light,
the light of an angel. Through his drishti and from his hand, Baba gave
all the powers and responsibility to me.
Avyakt Baba later
confirmed this: “I willed all the
powers.” At the time I had not
understood this, but as he continued to give drishti, his eyes changed
and his hand became light; then it became slack in my hand. In one second, there was such a silence, an
absolute dead silence. I couldn’t understand what had happened, but later I came
to know that Baba had become avyakt. I felt that Almighty Baba was
before me, and Sakar Baba was concealed within.
I made Baba lie
down. In the meantime, the doctor arrived and said that Baba was no more... but
I never felt that Baba had left. I continued
to say, “Baba is here; everyone’s beloved Baba is still with us, and will
continue to be with us!”
Baba had filled
limitless power in me. I was calling
everyone on the telephone, saying, “It was fixed in drama. Do you remember drama? Baba has become avyakt.
Whoever wants to come is welcome. No one should shed tears; Baba is still with
us.”
Children, don’t worry. Baba went to the
subtle region to prepare for you children
By placing his hand in mine, Baba had
increased my courage. I was unshakable.
Not one question came as to ‘what has happened?’ or ‘what will happen
now?’ Neither did my eyes become wet with tears nor did my heart become heavy.
I had complete faith that our study would continue until the end. On 21st January, the final rites were
performed for our beloved Baba’s body: for he who had given us so much more
love, affection and sustenance than any lokik father, in whose lap we
played as we grew up from small to big, through whom we found God, received
blessings and who filled us with several specialities.
That evening,
Avyakt BapDada came for the first time in the body of the messenger. Baba gave
the entire responsibility of yagya to Didi and Dadi, putting the urn on
both our heads. Baba gave the
message: “Children, don’t worry. Baba
went to the subtle region to prepare for you children. My beloved Child is with me. Baba has played
this part to reveal you shaktis, and to keep himself incognito.” These
words continue to ring in my ears until today.
In this way, making
several children sit in the boat of the yagya for 33 years, the boatman
had guided it safely through obstacles and storms with the limitless courage
that enabled it to continue with great stability. Now, he had put the responsibility of that
boat in our hands, and flew to the subtle region to become our complete helper.
Baba is the father of the yagya even
today;
it is he who is running the yagya
I feel that Baba is always with me. It is
He who is getting everything done. I
have His canopy over me; He is on my shoulders, He is in my eyes. I
receive divine inspiration from Baba. We are all His shoulders, and He
takes care
of His shoulders. When any big task occurs in the yagya, I consider
myself to be an instrument. I never experience any burden. When anyone comes to
take advice, I immediately become yogyukt and ask Baba. Only then will I offer advice. I never have the consciousness that I am
giving advice. I always have this concern that Baba’s select children should
come to the yagya to take their right and inheritance.

Dadi Prakashmani Ji - Become a great and complete renunciate
Become a Renunciate, a great renunciate and a complete renunciate -
Dadi Prakashmani Ji
Renunciation
means that your right to whatever things or aspects you have renounced
or stepped aside from, has finished. Whatever you have given to someone
else belongs to that person. Therefore, you cannot even think about
taking back whatever you have renounced or promised through your
thoughts. You Brahmins are unlimited sannyasis and renunciates. Your
images of renunciation have renounced the consciousness of your old
home, that is, your old body. You have promised that even your intellect
will not be attracted to your old home. This is why it is said:
Renounce the body and bodily relations. The first step of renunciation
is to renounce the consciousness of the body, that is, to step away
from it. So, you also have to renounce being attracted by any of the
different physical senses of your body, your home. No physical
sense-organs should attract you towards itself.
Consider
your old body to be something that BapDada has entrusted you to look
after. That is not your body, but a valuable item given to you for the
sake of service. It is as though you are living in your body as a
guest. Therefore, renounce the consciousness of "mine" and consider
yourself to be a guest and use your body for the elevated task. When you
have renounced the consciousness of the body, you have also renounced
all bodily relations. When you, the soul, have let go of the
consciousness of the body, you become bodiless and the master of it and
you constantly remain cheerful in your mind and body. You can never
become unhappy in your thoughts nor can it be seen on your face. To be
unhappy is a sign of being a servant. Together with renouncing the body,
you also have to be a great renunciate and renounce your lokik and
alokik relations. That is, you have to become a conqueror of attachment.
The indication of your being a conqueror of attachment is that you
would not have any dislike anyone, nor would there be any subservience
or attachment to anyone. If you dislike someone, then your intellect
would constantly be disturbed by the defects of that soul, or by the
deeds that he performs which are not to your liking. Then, at that time
you try to remember the Father, that soul would appear in front of you.
Souls for whom you have attachment will attract your intellect with
their virtues and love. A soul you dislike will disturb your intellect
when your expectations are not fulfilled. So, renounce the bondage of
such happenings.
To become a Brahmin means to renounce
sinful thoughts and sinful acts. Let alone sinful acts, Brahmins must
not perform even ordinary acts. Physical organs are connected with acts;
you have to renounce sinful acts. Without renouncing sinful acts, you
cannot become a conqueror of
sinful acts who performs pure
acts. Therefore, renounce everything of waste because even wasteful
words do not allow you to become powerful. Even if you have not
performed any sinful act, but have just performed wasteful acts, you
would still not be able to accumulate at the
present or for
the future. The time you waste in wasteful or ordinary things throughout
the day should be underlined so that this carelessness is renounced.
Your every thought and second are invaluable. Bhagats say that they
simply want a glimpse for one second. Therefore, know your own value and
renounce any thoughts and acts that are wasteful or sinful. Many
children renounce their past life and become great renunciates. However,
they sometimes misuse the
great fortune they have
received of becoming a great renunciate by having wrong types of
intoxication. Although they have broken the iron chains and become
golden-aged from iron-aged, they sometimes become trapped in the golden
chains of a beautiful life. The golden chains are the consciousness of
"I" and "mine". "I am a very knowledgeable soul", "I am a gyani and
yogi soul". Sometimes, these golden chains donot allow you to become
free from bondage. Now, become renunciates of even these. A true server
means one who has renounced name and fame. When you remain completely
beyond the name and trace of vice in your thoughts, words, deeds,
relations and contacts, you will be known as a complete renunciate. To
be such a complete renunciate means to be one who is a constant
embodiment of virtues. To be an embodiment of virtue means to be
virtuous and to see virtues in everyone. Whilst seeing anyone's defects
and understanding them, do not allow those defects to be inculcated
into your intellect. Become a complete renunciate and consider yourself
to be a responsible soul. Whilst performing any elevated task, any
successful task of service, any task that brings about progress in
Brahmin souls, or any task that transforms an atmosphere of weakness or
waste, become totally ignorant of wanting to perform limited acts or
having a desire to attain temporary limited fruit. Those who constantly
eat fresh (instant) fruit are always healthy in their mind. They will
constantly be healthy and in a stage of manmanabhav.

Dadi Prakashmani Ji - Increase the power of the mind...
Increase the power of the mind,
by coming into sound less and going beyond sound.
Dadi Prakashmani Ji
Baba makes everything very easy for the children. Whatever the people of the world find difficult is very easy for Baba's children. Baba has given me this special opportunity to experience the power of silence. Everyone's good wishes and blessings are being received from all over the world and is enabling the soul to fly. It is also my desire that Baba's children everywhere should experience this stage also. Let your stage be free from obstacles. Every day is not going to be the same. So let your remembrance be unbreakable, filled with total faith in your intellect. If a soul has the habit of overcoming obstacles, then whatever obstacles come in front of the soul, they can easily overcome these by taking a high jump.

Sweet
Baba makes us children the master almighty authorities by constantly
keeping us under His canopy of protection. When we remain under this
canopy of protection, even the shadow of Maya cannot fall over us. We
have been able to overcome everything because we are now sitting in
the boat of truth and have taken the support of humility. In service,
we are just instruments.
Sweet Baba mentioned last season that we have to continue to serve with the power of the mind, and increase the power of mind, and come into sound less. The more we go beyond sound, the more the power of subtle thoughts enables us to overcome everything easily. Sweet Baba is making everything so easy! This is also the wonderful game of God; whatever the people of the world consider to be difficult and are afraid of, Baba says all of that is very easy!
On the day of Tuesday, the auspicious day of Vishnu, I went to the hospital for a check up and had angiograph followed by angioplasty. The experience of this was just like pulling hair out of butter; the soul was totally beyond and no feeling of any type of pain. There wasn't any feeling like you might have even of an injection. The experience was that all the old accounts are now being settled and whatever accounts were hidden and still remain are also being settled. This has also been an opportunity to accumulate the power of silence. The apron is overflowing with good wishes and blessings received from all over the world, including Madhuban, the foreign lands and Bharat and the treasure store has become full. The treasure store has now become so full that the heart says: Everyone should continue to receive such blessings from Baba and the family, enabling souls to fly on the "uran khatola" flying magic carpet. These are now the moments of our flying stage, of flying and inspiring others to fly, and when we fly, then with our attitude and vibrations, the hearts of others also desire to do the same.

Become
free from attachment so that no veins are being pulled, so that you
are able to go beyond your body, bodily relations and the physical
world. When you come close to Baba, then this world is not visible.
Baba has personally come in front of us, but is so yuktivan
(tactfully), He pulls us away from here to Him there.
Dadi Prakashmani - My wish was to become the Meera of Murlidhar
My wish was to become the Meera of Murlidhar
—Dadi Prakashmani
Since childhood, I used to worship Shri
Krishna, and wished that I could be Meera. There was a Radhe-Krishna temple
just in front of my house. As part of my daily routine, I would go to the
temple in the evening and swing Shri Krishna and put him to sleep, worshipping
Shri Krishna with a lot of love. I even used to feel that Shri Krishna and Shri
Radhe loved me a lot. I used to read the Bhaagwat every day, as well as
we Sindhis believe in Sukhmani and Granth Sahib, which we were taught in
school. I used to enjoy listening to these and to the Ramayana, Mahabharata,
etc. in our Religion period. I would always come first in the school in this
subject. In fact, I loved all my academic studies, coming either first, second
or third in the school, never below, so the teachers loved me very much. I
spent much less time on sports and games these did not interest me. My older
sisters were married, leaving just me with my parents at home. I had no
interest in going out to different places, to sit and gossip with friends or to
eat outside, although I did have friends with whom I studied, otherwise I
didn’t have any friendships that just wasted time. I never stepped inside a
cinema hall in my life.
My lokik
parents had good sanskãrs; they were interested in religious activities
and spiritual gatherings, so good sanskãrs were cultivated in me. I
cannot remember ever being mischievous or my parents ever slapping me or being
angry with me, and I never quarrelled or fought with anyone at school. My lokik
father was a disciple of Swami Gangeshwarananda, and would take me with him
when he went to visit. Gangeshwarananda ji also knew how to tell horoscopes and
had said to my father: your daughter will not marry but will become Meera. I
had never been interested in eating or drinking, touring around, wearing good
clothes, etc. I cannot remember ever saying to my mother that I want such and
such a dress, or that I feel like eating this today or please prepare this or
that, never. Right from childhood, my favourite slogan was: Better to die than
to ask. I thought: To have desire is ignorance. Would the gopis ever
have desires? Would Meera ever have any desire? If they never would, why should
I?
Yes, I definitely
had a desire to have a vision of Shri Krishna or of Vishnu. I used to have a
deep longing to have a glimpse: when will I have a vision of Shri Krishna; when
will I have a vision of Vishnu, I used to wonder. I believed them to be God at
that time.
Shri Krishna and Shri Satyanarayan started
to appear in my dreams
I came into gyan in 1937, when I was
14 years old, and was studying for my matriculation. We were taught all
subjects– history, geography, mathematics, science, and so on– in English. Mama
also used to study in that same school, and we sat on the same bench in class.
Though we were classmates, I knew nothing about her, except that she was very
sweet, she had very long hair and a beautiful face and that I liked her very
much. For our three weeks’ holidays for Dashera and Diwali, we used to go to
spiritual gatherings and temples. It was very cold early in the mornings during
Diwali in Hyderabad.
During this time,
one night, in my dreams, I saw a beautiful garden. There was light upon light
everywhere in that garden. The light was so beautiful. There were huge flowers
and fruits as far as the eye could see that seemed to go on further and
further. Then a stronger light appeared at a very far distance in the garden,
and from the middle of that light appeared a very small Shri Krishna with a
flute coming closer and closer to me, dancing all the way. The closer he came,
the happier I felt. The more I looked at him, the happier I felt. An angel in
white appeared in the form of an old man behind Shri Krishna. In my childhood,
I had heard a story about Satyanarayana where God comes assuming the form of an
old person. When I saw this angel behind Shri Krishna, I felt that I was seeing
God Satyanarayan. I repeatedly looked from Shri Krishna to the old-bodied
angel. Both appeared very lovely to me. Then I woke up, and was extremely
happy. I had heard that if one receives a vision from God, one shouldn’t speak
of it; just like when a mute person eats a sweet they cannot speak of it, even
though they enjoy it inside. If a person were to speak of a vision from God
that they had received, God would never come again to that one, so I did not
speak a word about it, not even to my mother. Even so, God did not come again.
I chanted the rosary of Shri Krishna, went to the temple and called out: “O,
Shri Krishna, come!” He did not come. Three days passed in this way, then one
of my classmates, who used to go to Om Mandali, invited me to her house. When I
arrived at her house, she was in trance and tears were rolling down her cheeks.
Her name was Leela. I called to her: “Leela, Leela,” but she didn’t hear
anything. She was lost in her own world, smiling and putting her hand up, but
she didn’t respond to me. I said to her mother: “Leela called me, but she is
not responding when I call her nor opening her eyes.” Her mother replied,
“Daughter, I do not know what has happened to her. She continues to go into
trance. This has been her condition for the past two to three days.” I was very
pleased to see the state of her condition. Just as I was about to leave, she
came out of her trance, and when she saw me, she said, “Rama1 come!
I will help you have a vision of Shri Krishna.’’ I replied, “To have a vision of
Shri Krishna is not like going to your aunty’s home! I am doing so much
devotion and worship, yet have been unable to have a vision, yet you say you
can make me have a vision just like that?” Then Leela said, “Now it’s evening,
but tomorrow morning we will go at 10.00.” So, I went home and waited for the
morning. Baba used to start his gatherings at 10.00 in the morning because
mostly mothers were attending.
I saw the one whom I also saw in my dreams
Baba had begun satsangs in Bhavu
Vishwa Kishore’s house. Bhavu was Baba’s nephew. Whenever we used to go out, we
would always ask our parents’ permission. That very night my lokik
father said to me, “Daughter, now it is your holidays. Dada is conducting satsang
where they chant Om and sing songs, why don’t you go?” I said, “Papa, my
friend also told me that one can have a vision of Shri Krishna there, and she
asked me to go with her.” My father said, “Okay child, you can certainly go.”
The next morning, I collected Leela and we went to the satsang.
Baba was chanting Om
when we arrived. That sound was so nice. My eyes instantly fell on Baba’s
forehead. It seemed as if light was coming out of his forehead. Of course, I
didn’t know then who was Shiv Baba or Brahma Baba. I simply remembered how four
days earlier I had seen Lord Satyanarayan dressed in white along with Shri
Krishna in my dreams, and this Dada looked the same! Why did he come in my
dreams? Who is he? Is this Baba Lord Satyanarayan? I was looking at Baba as I
was thinking this. As I continued to watch him and listen to the sound of Om,
I went into trance. The same Shri Krishna, the same royal garden, the same Lord
Satyanarayan whom I had seen in my dreams appeared before me. I don’t know for
how long I was in trance because when I came back the satsang was over
and everyone had left. Someone had woken me up, and seeing myself alone, I felt
a bit shy, though I was still in the rapture of trance. Baba was sitting in his
room, and called me: “Come, child, come!” As I looked at Baba, sometimes I saw
Shri Krishna and sometimes Lord Satyanarayan. Even after returning home, I
continued to see these two, and couldn’t sleep for many nights following. I was
in such rapture that I couldn’t eat or sleep. My mother was concerned about
what was wrong with her daughter, but I liked to be in trance, so I would go
and sit on the terrace and go into trance to see Shri Krishna in heaven. My
love for this deepened. Papa also started to wonder what had happened to his
daughter, but I didn’t say anything except that everything was all right. This
had all happened during the period of Diwali, but then the holidays finished,
and it was time to return to school. I found that I had lost interest in going
to school, but still had to go. When I went to school, I met Mama. I said to her:
“Radhe, you go to satsang as well. Dada recites and explains the Gita
very well.” Mama agreed, saying that she had been once before, and we both
determined to go there daily. Soon afterwards, I said, “Papa, I don’t want to
go to school.” Papa looked at me sternly: “Why don’t you want to go!” “I don’t
want to continue this study,” I replied. “I want to drink the nectar of pure
knowledge and give it to others. I want to be a gopi with Shri Krishna
and Radhe and dance with them. I want to become a yogini.” Then Papa
said, “Okay, child, I want whatever you want.”
Didi Manmohini was
going to satsang before me. Didi was my lokik aunt and Anand
Kishore Dada was my cousin; they were both going to satsang, and as I
used to go with Didi, my parents did not mind. Later, Baba taught me to give
lectures, sing songs, give courses, recite shlokas (verses) from the
Gita, and so on. I no longer remembered anything of this world.
I said, Baba, I already belong to Shri
Krishna
However, before this, one incident stands
out in particular. Three of us friends were on our way to satsang. We
were wearing coloured clothes and jewellery. Baba’s house was in the middle of
the market. It was a very big house, and upstairs was a large room where Baba
used to stay alone. From upstairs, Baba had seen us arriving, and sent a
message asking the children to come up. We became nervous as to why Baba was
calling us upstairs! Baba called out to us: “Children do you want to get
married to one who wears a coat and pants or to one with a heavenly dress? We
did not understand this question because we did not even know what was a coat
and pants or a heavenly dress.” We were also surprised that Baba should be
speaking to us about marriage. Then, Baba asked again: “Speak, child, do you
want to marry Shri Krishna or some boy?” I said, “Baba, I have already married
Shri Krishna so there is no question of marrying anyone else.” Then Baba said,
“If you have already married Shri Krishna, why are you wearing coloured dresses
and jewels?” From that day on, I did not wear jewellery or coloured clothes.
Where did my Giridhar Gopal go?
We were in great intoxication of knowledge
at that time. During the month of April, Baba handed over all responsibility to
Mama and went to Kashmir with his lokik family from where Baba wrote a
letter to Mama: “Om Radhe, they are opening a school in Hyderabad in Sindh, yet
for as long you have not opened a boarding house for those children whose
mothers are coming to satsang, I will not come back to Hyderabad.” Baba
said that he would be going to Kashmir for a month, but Baba stayed there for
three months. We children were crying day and night: Where did my Giridhar
Gopal (Shri Krishna) go? We acted as if crazy, calling out “Baba! Baba!” and we
were desperately distressed. For those months, whenever we saw Baba, Shri
Krishna would appear. Shri Krishna was constantly in my eyes.
I
used to teach 10 year-old children when I was 15 years old
Mama made a lot of effort to open a school.
A meeting was held, and a committee was formed for it. At the meeting, it was
decided that I would be the instrument to run it. After all this was completed,
Mama wrote a letter to Baba asking him to return to Hyderabad. In that year,
1937, Baba inaugurated the boarding school. In those days, everyone who came to
satsang was addressed with the name Om: for example, Om Baba, Om
Radhe, Om Rama, Om Gopi, etc. There were about 50 children, both girls and
boys. My age was then 15 years old, and I was teaching those of 10 years old.
Baba used to teach me before I taught the children. Baba used to write poems
and songs himself, and would teach me how to prepare the lessons, how to teach
them, how to wake them up, to give them a bath, feed them and put them to
sleep. Baba taught me everything.
Baba loved me so much and gave me such
respect
Baba later formed a committee of four
mothers and four kumaris, a total of eight. He did not include any of
his lokik relatives in it. There was Didi Manmohini, Dadi Rukmani, Rup
(Mama’s lokik mother), Mohindra, and among the kumaris were Mama,
myself, Dadi Shantamani and Sundri Behn. Baba willed all his property in the
name of this committee of mothers and kumaris. Since my childhood, I had
never exhibited anything like sulking, crying, quarrelling, fighting, stealing,
disobeying parents, answering back to older people or showing ego, so Baba used
to love me a lot. He never showed me a stern eye, never scolded me, nor did he
ever ask me why I did something, never. Baba used to love me and also respected
me.
When Baba stayed
with us in Hyderabad, he would sometimes demonstrate his cleverness. There was
a train from Hyderabad to Karachi at 2.00 a.m., taking three hours. Baba used
to go to Karachi in that train. When we would wake up in the morning to find
that Baba had disappeared, we would all get upset, calling out: “Where did you
go, my Giridhar? Where did you go, my Ghanshyam? O’ Ganga, O’ Jamuna, where did
my Shyam go?” (All these are the names of Shri Krishna). Then a letter would
arrive from Baba saying that I will come after two days.
After the partition
of India, we came to Abu.

Dadis Prakashmaniji - ATTENTION - ( no tension ) Service and Remembrance -
ATTENTION - ( no tension )
Dadi Prakashmani Ji
We
never used to say we were going to sit in yoga, but to sit with
attention; sit in God's remembrance. We have the concern to do
everything with attention. Our dharna is good when there is attention.
If our attention is wandering here and there when we are listening,
we are unable to understand. If there is anything lacking in our
dharna it means there isn't attention on the self. If we're busy
seeing the mistakes of others, our attention is drawm tpwards them.
Then we take on the responsibility of everyone else; of what they
should or should not be doing.
What do we have to do? We have to keep ourselves free from waste thoughts and attention to useless matters. Listen, but don't listen. If you are busy in yoga there is no time for waste. If you are busy with your own progress, then you're able to be flexible in service. Baba has made us sensible and light (no tension), so that we do the service that comes in front of us with love, considering it to be our fortune. Have the gift of being tireless. Do service from the heart and Baba will really massage the soul. How would He do this? With sweet drishti and love!
Keep a list of what you need to keep in your attention in order to pass. Pass in being tireless in mind and body. In this short time we have to earn a huge income for the whole kalpa. Become peaceful internally, so that your sense organs are under your control. We have no desires. Whatever is necessary will come in front of us. Those who do something from their heart have no desire for any respect or fame. Some souls become happy when you praise them, but what is the basis of such happiness? There is true happiness and deep faith when you go deep into knowledge. Then you will experience great benefit, and yoga will be easy. By going deep into knowledge there is naturally attention on dharna. Then your face will reflect happiness and you'll automatically do service. You'll never do anything against the maryadas, and so you'll be able to claim everyone's blessings. You'll
be seen in everyone's vision as an elevated effort-maker. A true, incognito effort-maker is automatically revealed and becomes an inspiration for others.
The main thing is to have attention internally. Be cautious in your interaction. Don't speak loudly and from a distance. The more you go into silence, the more your face will lose its sadness and become cheerful. Speak only of good things and that which is necessary; don't speak too much. Become a swan, with the discrimination power to leave aside waste. This will only be possible when the intellect becomes clean. Go deep into the soul conscious stage; go beyond the body and bodily beings. People won't be able to see us; they will just see that we are in a stage of being beyond. We have to return home as the brides with the Beloved, in the state in which we first came down. A bride is never separated from her beloved even for a second; they do everything together.

Service and Remembrance -
Dadi Prakashmani Ji
God is the Sun of Knowledge and He gives such rays that nothing can
be hidden from us. To be constantly cheerful is to make true effort.
We know we'll receive the fruit in the golden age, but we can
experience that happiness now if we have self-sovereignty, when the
mind and sense organs are in order. There shouldn't be a wave of sorrow
in our
mind. Baba has given us this life to be happy and take blessings. Our happiness should finish any trace of sorrow in the gathering. Don't hide any sickness, nor talk to others about it and spoil the atmosphere, but speak to Baba about it and He'll put it right.
There is service in being a good companion. Whatever service is in front, be co-operative in that service. To think of just sitting in one corner having yoga is fine, but the proof of yoga is being co-operative with all. Have a record of giving co-operation throughout your life. You should suit every gathering. Learn everything secretly so that you're
able to do whatever is needed at the time. A yogi soul is free of thinking and talking about problems.

We
should be like cool water. Become cool by teaching yourself. Don't
say others should learn and understand. These thoughts will give you
sorrow. To say others have to change shows very ordinary thinking. When
we give Baba our finger of co-operation, see how much Baba helps the
soul. We become free from sin and show others this path. When we
increase the power of concentration we can finish all other thoughts.
Keep a chart in order to finish off speaking and thinking wasteful
things.
If we quarrel amongst ourselves, how can we show the path to others. If we didn't have this 'army', maya would eat us whole. Those who sulk will remember their lokik home. If there isn't Baba's remembrance, your happiness diminishes. Externally you may look happy, but internally you're not happy. Happiness is a big property.

दादीजी एक अद्वितीय अध्यात्मिक शिक्षिका
१ दादीजी कुछ बोल के द्वारा सिखाती थी , कुछ दिव्या चलन द्वारा सिखाती थी , कुछ दिव्या अध्यात्मिक
प्रकाम्पनो द्वारा सिकाती थी
२ नित्य सुबह हर राज्रिशियोंके संघटन को उध्भोधन कराती थी . जिन अध्यात्मिक राजो भरा महावाक्य वो
उच्छारते थे उसको हम मुरली कहते है .नित्य सही समय पर सभी को सम्भोदन करते थे . कई आयामों वाला
इस महान विभुतियोमें थोड़ी सी जहलक मैंने जो देखा वो इस प्रकार है
३ जब वो इस ईश्वरीय महावाक्य पड़ती थी ऐसे लगता था जैसे एक आकाशवाणी हो रही एक अवतरित फरिश्ता
दिव्या स्मृति में वो ईश्वरीय महावाक्य पद रहे है
४ जब भी वो इन् महाव्क्य उच्चारते थे ..सुनने वाले अनुभुतियोमें खो जाते थे ..खुद वो इस स्वरुप में रहकर मुरली
पदाठी थी
५ हमें ऐसा लगता था की दादीजी महावाक्य बहुत गहराई में बहुत न्यारापन से अपने लिए पढ़ रही है .खुद वो
ईश्वरीय नशे में रहती थी की भगवान् खुद उनको पढ़ा रहे है
६ महावाक्य सुनाने वालोंको पता ही नहीं चलता था समय कब पूरा हुआ है ...पूरा एक घंटा ऐसे ही चला जाता था .
७ उन् महाव्क्यो में जितना भी बाते सरल हो उन् छोटी बातो नकी गहराई की अनुभूति वो करती थी
८ जभ भी इसके उंदर धारनओंकी ओंकी बात आती थी .खुद उन् स्वरुप में रहकर ..सभी को ऐसे महसूस कराती
थी की ऐ सब ऊंची धारानाये नेचरल है .सहज है ,बहुत ऊंची सच्चाई वाला है .इसको अपनाने में सहज ख़ुशी
की भंडार है .सदा इन् धारणा ओमें वो चिपकी हुयी जैसे लगती थी .सामने वाले विद्यार्थी ऐसे महससू करते
की असत्यता वाला धारणा फीखा फीखा है ..जैसे नकारात्मक धारणा ओमें कोई दम नहीं है
१० उनके बोल सुनते बुद्धि एकाग्र हो जाती थी
११ कोई भी विद्यार्थी उनके द्वारा सुनी महावाक्यो ओंको फिर से जभ भी एकांत में जभ सुनता था
वही दिव्या अनुभूतियाँ करता था .हुम थो रात को जागकर २ बजे एकांत में वही महाव्क्य सुनाते थे ऐसे थी हमारे प्यारे दादीजी ...जो एक इतिहास बन गयी ...एक यादगार बन गयी ...साधानाओंके प्रेरणा स्त्रोत
बन गयी .जो उन के द्वारा ऐ पालना लिया वो थो पदमा पदम् भाग्यशाली है ही
