LAKSHMI-NARAYAN (ADVANCE COURSE)

Transcription

1 LAKSHMI-NARAYAN (ADVANCE COURSE) INTRODUCTION OF THE PICTURE Among the four main pictures prepared on the basis of divine visions, this picture of Lakshmi-Narayan has also been prepared during the lifetime of Baba. Its proof is that among the four main pictures that have been prepared through divine visions, in the first two old pictures Trimurty and Kalpa Vrisksh (the World Tree), it is written just Brahmakumari Ishwariya Vishwavidyalaya and in the two pictures Lakshmi-Narayan and Seedhi (the Ladder) prepared in 1965/66 the word Prajapita has been added because Baba has said in the Murli The word Prajapita should definitely be written before the word Brahmakumaris. The Father is proved by using the word Prajapita. (Mu , pg.2, beginning) This topic is clearly proved through the versions of Murlis that we Brahmins are not just the children of mother Brahma, but we have a father as well Prajapita. We are children of the Mother as well as the Father. The size of this picture is 30 X40. While mentioning about the picture of Lakshmi-Narayan Baba has said in the Murli The picture of Lakshmi-Narayan is very good. There is an entire set in it. There is Trimurty as well as Lakshmi-Narayan and Radhe-Krishna as well. If anyone keeps on seeing this picture everyday, then he will remember that Shivbaba is making us this through Brahma. (Mu , pg.2, end) * One gets a sense of refreshment just by seeing our aim-object; this is why Baba says Each one should have this picture of Lakshmi- Narayan.This picture increases the love in heart. (Mu , pg.3, beginning) * This picture of Lakshmi- Narayan should be available in everyone s house. It is such an accurate picture. If you remember them, then Baba will come to your mind. If you remember Baba then this [picture] will come to your mind. (Mu , pg.3, beginning) * Baba says Whenever you get leisure time, come and sit in front of the picture of Lakshmi-Narayan. You can come and sleep here during the night as well. Go to sleep while seeing this Lakshmi and Narayan. (Mu , pg.2, end) RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN LAKSHMI-NARAYAN AND RADHA-KRISHNA In the picture of Lakshmi & Narayan generally an explanation used to be given that Radha-Krishna will only grow up to become Lakshmi & Narayan, whereas the picturisation in this picture does not give an inference that Radha-Krishna will grow up to become Lakshmi & Narayan. Rather, the correct meaning of the picture is that Lakshmi & Narayan printed in the centre and Radha & Krishna whose picture is printed below have the relationship of creator and creation [between themselves]. Lakshmi & Narayan, the creators are shown standing above [Radha & Krishna] in the centre. Creators mean mother and father and Radha and Krishna, the children, their creation, who will get birth in the Golden Age, have been shown below. Baba usually asks in the Murlis, What is the relationship between Lakshmi & Narayan and Radha & Krishna? * The Father Himself comes and explains as to what is the relationship between Radhey-Krishna and Lakshmi-Narayan? (Mu , pg.1, middle). * When Krishna s swayamvar (marriage) takes place, then the name itself changes. Yes, it will be said that they were children of Lakshmi-Narayan. Radhey-Krishna themselves become Lakshmi-Narayan after swayamvar. Then one son is born. Then his dynasty continues. (Mu , pg.1, middle) Whenever Baba asks about the relationship at some places in the Murlis, then it proves that Radha & Krishna and Lakshmi & Narayan are not the same souls. When there is a relationship then certainly those souls are related to each other through some relationship. It is a relation of mother-father and children. * It will be easy to explain if there is Radhey- Krishna along with the picture of Lakshmi-Narayan. This is the correct picture. Its write-up is also very nice. (Mu , pg.3, end) * The features of Lakshmi-Narayan should not change. Otherwise, it will be said that are there so many features? Features should be the same. (Mu , pg.3, middle) CREATORS OF HEAVEN AND THEIR DIVINE CREATION

2 This matter is very clear in this picture. On the top of the picture a heading is also given Creators of heaven and their divine creation (swarg kay rachayita aur unki daivi rachana). Here, if we look carefully then one will come to know that [Swarga] ke rachayita (Creators of heaven) is a plural phrase. It has not been written as Swarga ka rachayita (Creator of heaven). If it had been written Swarga ka rachayita (Creator of heaven) then rachayita (Creator) would have been one, but here it has been written Swarga ke rachayita (Creator of heaven) because, for the process of creation (srishti), two creators are required. Without two persons, creation of children cannot take place; that is why here it has been written, Swarga ke rachayita (creators of heaven). It is not that creation will take place through the point of light Shiva. Point of light Shiva is the name of incorporeal soul- Shiva. He is one. But one can get incorporeal inheritance from the incorporeal father. That is why Baba has asked a question in the Murli Do you want incorporeal inheritance from the incorporeal? (Mu , pg.4, end of the middle portion) because, there is no question of creation of something incorporeal, because the incorporeal soul is eternal (anaadi) and imperishable (avinashi). So there is no question of creating it. Something which did not exist earlier is created. Creators should also be corporeal and the creation should also be corporeal. Both creator and creation should be corporeal. That is why it has been written here Swarga ke rachayita i.e., creators of heaven, i.e., Lakshmi & Narayan and further it has been written, and their divine creation. The divine creation of the creators of heaven Lakshmi-Narayan, who have been referred to in plural. Divine creation means creation of deities. The children born to them will be deities. If they are termed as Shiva's divine creation then, Shiva is in fact God. Will God create God & Goddess or the deities? Deities create deities and God creates God & Goddess. This is why Baba has said in the Murli - * Lakshmi-Narayan is called God-Goddess, i.e. they have obtained this inheritance through God. (Mu , pg.1, end of the middle portion) * These Lakshmi and Narayan have been made such by the incorporeal. (Mu , pg.2, end) * It is said, isn t it that there was a rule of God-Goddess. It is said the rule of Bhagwati Shri Lakshmi and Bhagwan Shri Narayan. They existed once upon a time, so, where have they gone now?. Even now they are here with different names and forms. [Now] you know all these secrets. Children should feel happy by understanding these topics that the Father is teaching us to make us like this. These are the number one hero, heroine. (Mu , pg.1, end of the middle portion) The title of God & Goddess is that of Confluence-aged Lakshmi & Narayan, who are transformed from woman to Lakshmi and man to Narayan, i.e., they are called Nar (man) - Narayan (Deity). The children who will be born as deities in the Golden Age will not be called God-Goddess, because the title of God-Goddess is for the people of all the religions. Baba has said in the Murli * When these Lakshmi and Narayan were alive, there was happiness everywhere. People of all the religions worship them, they say Garden of Allah. (Mu , pg.3, middle) They are the parents of the entire world whether anyone considers them their parents or not. So the heading Creators of heaven and their divine creation proves the fact that the creator should be first and the creation should be next. This entire picture has been prepared in the sequence of the creators and then the creation. This is why Baba has said in the Murli - * First is the Supreme Father Supreme Soul Creator. (Mu , pg.1, middle) This picture of Lakshmi & Narayan in the centre is the picture of the Confluence-aged Lakshmi & Narayan. When the Confluence Age will be near completion, [then some years before completion] Radha-Krishna will be born as their children, they are their creation. GOLDEN-AGED DEITY SOVEREIGNTY (SWARAJYA) IS YOUR GODLY BIRTH RIGHT For example, there is the picture of Trimurty; there is a write-up below Divine sovereignty is your birth right. (Mu , pg.1, beginning) In the heading given beow the picture of Trimurty, it has been written, Goldenaged deity sovereignty (swarajya) is your Godly birth right. (Satyugi daivi swarajya aapka Ishwariya janma siddh adhikaar hai) This has been written above the crown of Lakshmi & Narayan. This sentence makes it clear as to whose is the birth right of the Golden aged deity sovereignty, which has been mentioned as the birthright? It is the birthright of Brahmins, isn t it? And whose children are Brahmins? They are the children of Brahma. When do they become [children of Brahma]? The Brahmins of the Confluence Age get the Godly birthright; the right, which is obtained as a result of the Godly birth. For e.g. if a child is born to a Lakhpati (an owner of one lakh rupees) or Crorepati (an owner of one crore rupees), then the birth right of the Crorepati father is obtained by the child only, because just by taking birth, it is proved that he has a right over the crores of rupees. So similarly, the Godly

3 birthright means that those who have taken birth from God get the birth right of Golden aged inheritance just by taking birth. So, should that right be received in this birth or in the next birth? It should be received in this birth only, shouldn t it? Because when the Brahmin birth is here then the birthright should also be received here only or will it be received in the next birth? Because Baba has said in a Murli We have to become Brahmins also in this birth itself. You will be made deities also here only. (Mu , pg.3, end) So this sentence also proves that there are some such Brahmin children also who obtain the inheritance of Golden aged deity sovereignty, the inheritance of the kingdom of the Golden-aged deity sovereignty in this birth itself and through this body only. When it is a birth right, then it is received just by getting birth then you have anyway become entitled, haven t you? (AV , pg.30, end) This is why Baba has said in the Murli - * The Father is a creator of heaven, so definitely He will give the inheritance of heaven only and He will certainly give in hell. (Mu , pg.1, beginning) If you do not achieve the goal of being perfect in 16 celestial degrees in this birth itself, then how will the Godly study or the power of yog be praised? It is because Baba has said in the Murli You children have to become complete in all the virtues, perfect in 16 celestial degrees here [in the Confluence Age]. (Mu , pg.1, end). It has been mentioned in the Gita also Shaknoti ih aiva yah sodhum praak shareera vimokshanaat. Kaamakrodhodbhavam vegam sa yuktah sa sukhee narah. 5/23 He who is able to withstand the impulse arising out of lust and anger even before he quits the body in this world itself he is a Yogi; he alone is a happy man. LAKSHMI-NARAYAN IN A CARB OF LIGHT AND RADHA-KRISHNA IN THE GOLDEN AGE WORLD The next point in this picture is that the circle of light depicted around Lakshmi & Narayan, is not the circle of purity of deities. The aura of purity, which is depicted, is shown around the head and not around the entire body. Here Lakshmi & Narayan are shown completely inside the world of light, and Radha & Krishna have been shown below in a world of flowers and leaves. The artist has picturised this fact. Through divine visions Baba has given this picturisation in the picture that Radha-Krishna are in the world of natural beauty of the Golden Age and Lakshmi & Narayan are in the Confluence Age world in which there is the light of knowledge. It has been mentioned in the Gita also Kireetinam gadinam chakrinam cha tejoraashim sarvatah deeptimantam. Pashyaami twaam durnireekshyam samantaat deeptaanalaarkadyutim aprameyam. 11/17 (You) are a holder of the crown (of responsibility of purity), the mace (of steadfastness) discus (of the knowledge of 84 births) (and) a mass of (yog like) radiance shining everywhere. (I) see you as the one who is very hard to look at from everywhere blazing like burning fire and shining like the Sun and uncomparable. They have been shown to be encircled by the light of knowledge. They have not been shown in the midst of heavenly world. This also proves that these Lakshmi & Narayan are connected to the confluence-aged world. They are not connected that much with the Golden Aged world. They have obtained the kingdom with the power of their efforts, with the power of knowledge. They become the Emperor of the World. That s is why the circle of light around them from the head to the toe, proves that they are the souls dwelling in the midst of the Confluence Age world of light, whereas their children Radha-Krishna are the souls dwelling in the midst of Golden aged natural beauty. LAKSHMI-NARAYAN S DECORATION Another point is clarified through this picture. If someone asks that why are these Lakshmi & Narayan depicted in such paraphernalia? Will they wear such decorations and sit in the Confluence Age? There s no question of wearing such paraphernalia in the Confluence Age. The artist picturizes the internal subtle matter through gross matter only. For e.g. Shankar is shown to be naked, so the artist wants to reveal that he (Shankar) is in an incorporeal stage. Brahma has been shown to be wearing clothes. So through this it has been revealed that he is in a corporeal stage, he is conscious of his bodily dress. Similarly, the different kinds of decorations, dresses and

4 jewelleries shown on the bodies of Lakshmi & Narayan are actually decorations of divine virtues. It is an internal matter. How can it be picturised? That is why the subtle decoration has been revealed through the gross decorations of divine virtues. As for the rest, one does not possess such decorated physical form in the Confluence Age. It is a decoration of divine virtues, decoration of divine powers. Bindi What is the main decoration (shringaar)? The bindi (a vermillion mark on the forehead) is applied; that is the main decoration. It is not about the physical bindi. It is a bindi-like soul. Remove the donkey like bodyconsciousness and let the bindi of soul consciousness remain forever. * The red teeka is the beauty of the face. Sandalwood paste (chandan) is the beauty of the soul. (Old AV , pg.82, end) A bindi of sandalwood which spreads fragrance like sandalwood. * Assume this awarness in the forehead that I am a form of bliss this is the bindi of the forehead. (AV , pg.190, middle) Crown (taaj) - * Consider yourself to be the officers with such responsibility. Those who wear the crown of responsibility of self-transformation as well as world-transformation will become entitled to the crown of the kingdom of the world. Those who are crowned ones in the Confluence Age will be the crowned ones in the future. If it is not in present, then it will not be in future. The present iself is a basis of future. Check and see both forms in the mirror of knowledge the Confluence Age Brahmins and future holders of the posts of deities. Look at both forms and then check in both Is there double crown in the Brahmin life or a single crown? One is the crown of purity and the other is the crown of studies and service in the practical life. Are both crowns equal? Are they complete or is there any shortcoming? If any of the crown here is incomplete, whether it is of purity, whether it is of studies or of service, then you will have to become entitled to a small crown or a single crown there, i.e. you will have to become someone with the post of a subject (praja) because even the praja will have a crown of light, i.e. they will be pure souls, but they will not have the crown of a world king or world emperor. Some will be Maharajan, some will be rajan, i.e. king; Maharaja and World s Maharaja; there will be numberwise crowned persons on this basis only. (AV , pg.1, middle) * The crown is of responsibility. The responsibility of the self and the responsibility of the world. (AV , pg.102, end) * The bigger the crown of responsibility, the bigger the crown that you will receive in the Golden Age as well. (AV , pg.289, end) * Baba has also explained that double crown is just a name. There is no crown of light as such there. It is a symbol of purity. (Mu , pg.2, end) * The ones who never get even a thought of impurity in the dreams is called the ones with a personality of purity. (AV , pg.191, beginning) * The crown and throne of the future is nothing in front of this crown and throne. (AV , pg.87, end of the middle portion) * You know the throne the ones who adore the throne of the Father s heart. But this throne of heart is so pure that only those who are ever pure can sit on this throne forever. The Father does not bring you down from the throne, but you come down on your own. (AV , pg.107, middle) Chindi (gem on the forehead) - * Bapdada is giving a special gift to everyone. Which one? He is giving one special decoration. That is a chindi of being a well-wisher. There is also this chindi along with the crown. Just as the point like soul is shining, similarly, this gem of chindi is also shining in the middle of the forehead. (AV , pg.1, end) * The red tiika (vermillion mark on the forehead) is the beauty of the face. The sandalwood paste (chandan) is the beauty of the soul. (AV , pg.82, end) A bindi of sandalwood which spreads fragrance like sandalwood. * Assume this awarness in the forehead that I am a form of bliss this is the bindi of the forehead. (AV , pg.190, middle) Tilak - * Just as tilak shines in the middle of the forehead, similarly, the symbol of the awareness of being brothers, i.e. awareness of the soul was shining in the middle of the forehead as a point. (AV , pg.86, beginning) * Always apply the tilak of victory, i.e. the tilak of awareness on your forehead...the symbol of suhaag (husband being alive) is also a tilak. (AV , pg.86, beginning) * The means of being unshakeable (achal) is apply the tilak of three bindis at amritvela always. You are also a point, the Father is also a point and whatever has happened in the past, whatever is happening, nothing new; so, fullstop is also a point. (AV , pg.165, end) Baba has said - * Baba says I am giving you rajtilak. If I, the creator of heaven don t give you rajtilak, then who else will give? It is said Tulsidas chandan ghisey (Tulsidas rubs the sandalwood). This topic is of this place. Actually Shivbaba is Ram. (Mu , pg.3, beginning) I will only come and give. Someone else will not give. Actually, the soul of Ram only plays the part of Tulsidas because the soul of Tulsidas rubbed the sandalwood of knowledge and Raghuvir, i.e. the Supreme Father Shiv came and applied the tilak of awareness

5 (smriti) in 1976 that you are the soul of Ram. You are only going to become the soul of Narayan. So, He gave this touching to the soul of Ram. * You know the throne the ones who adore the throne of the Father s heart. But this throne of heart is so pure that only those who are ever pure can sit on this throne forever. The Father does not bring you down from the throne, but you come down on your own. (AV , pg.107, middle) * The crown and throne of the future is nothing in front of this crown and throne. (AV , pg.87, end of the middle portion) A lot of cleanliness of the heart is required in this; only then will you achieve a high post. Their intellect remains very clean; just as there is cleanliness in the soul of this Lakshmi and Narayan, isn t it? Only then have they achieved a high post. Shine of the eyes Shine of spirituality in the eyes, spiritual vision. There was a shine of practice of not seeing the body despite observing and the practice of seeing the souls. There was a glance of spiritual love. (AV , pg.86, beginning) * Through the divine eyes, i.e.. You get the power of peace, power of love, power of happiness or bliss, everything through vision. (AV , pg.15, beginning, pg.18, end of the middle portion) Kaajal (collyrium) The most attractive organs in the body are the eyes and the organs that dupe the most are also eyes. Baba has said in the Murli you must be committing 10, 20, 50 mistakes daily. Do the eyes commit mistakes or not? Do the eyes become adulterous or not? So, it has been said that these eyes should be saved from darkness [of lust] in this purusharthi life. It is about the purusharthi life. There should always be the kaajal of spirituality or the awareness of being brothers in the eyes. Nathani (nose-ring) A nose ring is put in order to bring someone under full control. Similarly, the women in the Iron Age mostly do not remain under the control of the husband. They mostly give divorce; they adopt other husbands. Their vision and vibrations become inconstant. It has been said in the Murli You should keep your wife under control. * Many such men come whose wives do not come. They do not accept at all. They write Baba, my wife is a Shoorpanakha, Pootna. They trouble a lot. What should I do? Baba writes You are weak. Explain to her. You had promised that you will listen to me. If you cannot control your wife, how will you control the vices? Your duty is to keep the wife in your hands. Explain lovingly. (Mu , pg.2, beginning) This has been said in the Murli itself. This nathaniya (nose-ring), which is worn by mothers to this day on the path of bhakti is a memorial of keeping under the control. Always one Father and none else the nathani of this awareness should be worn on the nose. Lakshmi hasn t been shown to be wearing nathani because she is a perfect form. The naath is put in the purusharthi Confluence Age life, not in the perfect form. Laali (redness) - * There should be the smile of having achieved God, of the great meeting of the soul and God and all the attainments.on the face there should be the redness of meeting after a kalpa the Mother and the Father and the righteous family. Cheery faced - * Both man and woman, who remember the knowledge remain happy like this. So, what is the means of remaining happy? To remember the knowledge. The more someone remembers the knowledge, the more he/she remains happy. (AV , pg.309, end) * One should not laugh loudly. Lakshmi-Narayan are called cheery-faced. To remain cheery faced and to laugh is a different thing. By remaining cheery-faced there will be that incognito happiness. It is bad to laugh loudly. It is best to remain happy. To giggle is also a vice. (Mu , pg.3, end) Lustre of the face There should be a spiritual luster on the face which causes vision of Bapdada s character. Kundal (Ear-ring) Ear-rings have been shown in the ears in remembrance of the vow I shall always listen from you, listen to you. It is also mentioned in the Murli * To keep on listening to topics of becoming embodiments of bliss through the ears is a decoration of the ears. (AV , pg.190, end) Rosary - * To speak words that cause joy through the mouth, i.e. the neck is like the necklace. (AV , pg.190, middle) Baaju band (armlet) The armlet of being helpful to everyone and the Father always or r remaining untiring servers. The arms are tied in the bondage of Godly service; its remembrance is this armlet. Kardhani (girdle) among all the ornaments of decoration, the heaviest and the strongest ornament is the girdle. The girdle is tied around the waist. To tie means to control. So, will the mothers and virgins perform the task of bringing heaven or will the brothers perform this task? So, the virgins have to tie the girdle. To tie the girdle

6 [around one s waist] means that there should be such purity in the organs of the waist (pelvic region) that no man could touch them. Kangan (bangle) The bangle of strong determination on the hands of promise of purity. Baba has also said- * There should be a stage of being an embodiment of bliss through the hands, i.e. actions as well these are the bangles of the hands. (AV , pg.190, middle) Angoothi (Ring) There are ten fingers. Even among them the fingers of the right hand perform good tasks and they too do it numberwise. So, definitely some fingers among the ten fingers perform more task; some fingers perform less task. Among them the tenth finger of the left hand is not of much use. So, the nine fingers are the memorial of the nine gems. Those gems are worn around the fingers. What is the meaning of wearing a ring? (Someone said To marry.) Yes. To inculcate the virtues of those nine gems. Among them the best gem is diamond. Diamond means hero actor. To remember, to inculcate the virtues of the hero actor this is to wear the ring. So, a mine of virtues has been depicted [in the form of a ring] which is worn on the fingers. Paayal (anklet) Anklet makes sound. Anklet makes sound. They tell whether we are going to do right or wrong. When one walks the anklet produces sound. It doesn t produce sound when someone is standing. So, they tread like this in the life. That anklet tells how one walks. One can know about the movement by its sound. It tells everything whether it is dancing, whether it is producing sounds gradually or whether it is producing sounds rhythmically. Anklet is a memorial of the walk. Ankle bells or anklet is a symbol of always dancing in joy. They perform the dance of knowledge. Ankle bells of fearlessness; when Mahakali causes destruction, then there are ankle bells of fearlessness in her legs. Which of the decoration of Shaktis and which of the challenge of the Shaktis and which task of the Shaktis is praised? You have to wear ghungroo (anklet) and dance on the demons. What happens by dancing? Whatever thing it is will be pressed and persih. This sound of ghunghroo is an indicator of fearlessness and destruction. (AV , pg.2) * The memorial of Shaktis or Gopikas is to dance in joy. They are shown to be wearing ghunghroo in their legs and dancing. For those who remain in joy, it is said he is dancing in joy. When they dance, they keep their leg up. Similarly, those who dance in joy, their intellect will be up. They will not be in the world of body or bodily beings, but in the world of souls, in soul conscious stage. (AV , pg.168, end) * The feet should move towards making others embodiments of bliss through the feet, i.e. every step should be taken towards becoming or making embodiments of bliss; this is the decoration of the feet. (AV , pg.190, end) Bichuey (nettle) The bichuey of following the footsteps or to follow the shrimat. The feet should move towards the service of making others embodiments of bliss, i.e. the feet should rise only to become and make others embodiments of bliss at every step; this is the decoration of the feet. Dress - * The dress should be decorated with the divine virtues forever. Just as the Father assumes the subtle dress from an incorporeal one, He becomes subtle and incorporeal Bapdada you too come wearing a subtle angelic dress, come wearing a shining dress, then the meeting will take place. Don t you know how to wear a dress? Wear the dress and reach. It is such a dress which is Maya s water-proof or fire-proof. (AV , pg.631, middle) Children have received different titles from Bapdada. So, there are dresses of stages of different titles and sets of decorations of different virtues..to become constant in the stage of that title, i.e. to wear those dresses. Wear the dress of being world benefactor sometimes, wear the dress of Master Almighty sometimes and wear the dress of Swadarshan Chakradhari sometimes. As is the time, as is the task to be performed, wear that very kind of dress Now have you understood one set? Have you worn the set completely? Similarly wear different sets at different times.. So, you have such sets of righteous decorations. Why don t you assume them? Why don t you wear them? Why do you leave such a variety of beautiful dresses and wear the dress of soil of remembrance of body consciousness? (AV , pg.190, end, 191, beginning) CONFLUENCE AGE LAKSHMI-NARAYAN AND THE GOLDEN AGE LAKSHMI-NARAYAN ARE DIFFERENT The crown, which has been depicted, is a crown of responsibility of establishment of heaven, which was not borne by others, but was taken up cent percent by them (these Lakshmi & Narayan). So this also reveals that the

7 Confluence-aged Lakshmi & Narayan who belong to the Confluence Age become instrumental in giving birth to Radha-Krishna. They obtain the decorations of divine virtues and powers from the Supreme Father, Supreme Soul directly and they take up the crown of responsibility of the establishment of heaven. As for the rest, the children, namely Radha & Krishna, who will be born to them, will not take up the responsibility of the establishment of heaven. Their intellect will not possess this knowledge. Baba has talked about Lakshmi & Narayan in the murlis in two ways. At one place He said, These Lakshmi & Narayan are fools. They do not possess any knowledge. (Mu , pg.3, end) On the other side it has been said in the murli, The Father explains that you have become so foolish. Now you are made intelligent. These (Lakshmi & Narayan) are clever. Only then are they the masters of the world. Foolish cannot become the master of the world. (Mu , pg.3, beginning of the middle portion). So due to these mutually contradictory statements in the murlis, sometimes the ignorant Brahmins get confused that Baba has spoken one thing somewhere in the murlis and another thing somewhere else. But it is not so. Whatever Baba says has only one meaning. Why will Baba speak ambiguously? It is said that God is truth, and truth is only one. It has also been mentioned in the Gita Amritam chaiva mrityushcha sadsachchaahamarjun. 9/19 I am the nectar (of knowledge) as well as (untruth like) death; O Arjuna (the one who earns good fortune) I am forever truth (as well). Such an illusion is created only because one is not able to guess the correct meaning of the true versions of Baba. Where it has been said Lakshmi & Narayan are fools it has been said for the Golden-aged Lakshmi & Narayan (i.e., Radha & Krishna) and wherever it has been said, Those Lakshmi & Narayan are clever, only clever persons can become masters of the world - These words have been used for the Confluence-aged Lakshmi & Narayan, because they make efforts in the Confluence Age and get the inheritance of the kingship of the world directly from the Supreme Soul, the Father. The souls, which obtain the inheritance directly from God, can actually be present only in the Confluence Age, and not in the Golden Age. On the basis of the versions of the Murli also, this fact becomes clear that the Confluence-aged Lakshmi & Narayan are different and the Golden-aged Radha & Krishna, who grow up and assume the title of their parents, i.e., Lakshmi & Narayan are different. The Confluenceaged Lakshmi & Narayan are creators and Radha & Krishna, who grow up to become Golden aged Lakshmi & Narayan are their creation. So there are only two Golden-aged relationships - one of mother & father and the other of children, i.e. brother & sister. The foundation for this is laid in the confluence age. Only those souls can become Mother & Father who make efforts through this body and attain everything in their life. This is why Baba has said in a Murli - * You know that now we are Godly children, then when we become divine children, the degree will be reduced. The degree of this Lakshmi-Narayan is also less because they do not have knowledge. Brahmins have knowledge. What will a person without knowledge be called? Ignorant. These (Lakshmi-Narayan) will not be called ignorant. They have achieved this post through knowledge only. (Mu , pg.3, end) Baba has said in the Murli regarding the Confluence Age Lakshmi-Narayan - * Well, everyone would say that it is these Lakshmi and Narayan who are leading a diamond-like life. (Mu , pg.1, beginning) * You [all] will tell when these Lakshmi and Narayan were born. It was 10 years less 5000 years ago from this day. Then tomorrow you will say 9 years less 5000 years ago. (It is a Vani dated 1966) (Mu , pg.3, middle) Baba has said in a Murli - * Life becomes like a diamond in the elevated Confluence Age. They (Lakshmi-Narayan) will not be called diamond-like). Your life is like a diamond. You are Godly children...these are divine children. (Mu , pg.2, beginning) * Shri Krishna is before Narayan, then why do you say that we should become Narayan from nar (man)? Why don t you say that we should become Krishna from nar (man)? You will not become Narayan first of all. First of all you will become a Prince Shri Krishna only, will you not?...the Father says Now you (we children) are going to become Narayan from nar (man) and Lakshmi from naari (woman). It is also well known beggar to prince. (Mu , pg.3, middle) It is clear that Brahma will become Shri Krishna from a man in the next birth, but we children become Narayan from nar (man) in this Confluence Age birth only. This is why the transformation from a man to Narayan is more famous. Shivbaba has described this very Confluence Age Narayan to be intelligent whereas the other Golden Age Narayans have been described to be fools because of the lack of knowledge.

8 RULE OF LAKSHMI-NARAYAN FROM THE YEAR 1 TO 2500 Baba has said in the Murli - * Lakshmi-Narayan had definitely obtained the kingship in the previous birth in the Confluence Age. Lakshmi-Narayan themselves are in their last birth after having passed through 84 births. Who gave the kingdom to Lakshmi-Narayan? There must be a giver, musn t there be? So, this proves that definitely God must have given, but how did He give? The Father sits and explains how they became Maharaja- Maharani in the beginning of the Golden Age. (Mu , pg.3, beginning) * Krishna s name is so famous. His father s name is not known at all. Where is his father? Definitely he (Krishna) must be a king s child, wasn t he?... When Krishna exists, at that time a few sinful ones live. When they perish completely, then this one (Krishna) ascends the throne. He takes his kingdom. From then onwards the Era begins. The Era begins from Lakshmi- Narayan only. (Mu , pg.3, end) * Our new year will be First day, first month, first year. (Mu , pg.3, middle) * Day by day a lot of improvement will continue to take place. Sometimes children forget to mention the date, etc. in the pictures. The date should definitely be mentioned in the picture of Lakshmi- Narayan. (Mu , pg.1, middle) In this picture the words that have been written in small letters below the feet of Lakshmi & Narayan--- From Era 1 to 2500 years --- The words 2500 years prove that it is the period of the rule of the Confluence-aged Lakshmi & Narayan depicted here in the centre, and that they rule for 2500 years generation after generation. So the reign of Radha & Krishna, who will be born in the Golden Age and become Lakshmi & Narayan, will not be for 2500 years. Their total rule including 8 generations will be for 1250 years only. But here it has been written 2500 years. This also proves that these souls are the same souls of Ram & Sita who complete their efforts in the Confluence Age and establish the kingdom of Ram (Ramrajya) and become instrumental in starting the dynasty of Lakshmi & Narayan and the same souls will get birth as Ram & Sita in the Silver Age in the first birth and there their rule will continue for 12 generations. So, the reign of 1250 years in Silver Age and the reign of 1250 years in the Golden Age by the name of Lakshmi & Narayan, the souls which establish both kinds of kingdoms are the souls of these Confluence-aged Lakshmi & Narayan in the Confluence Age. That s why it has been written below their feet Era 1 to 2500 years. This write up also makes it clear that the souls of Ram & Sita have been shown to be standing in the circle of light as Confluence-aged Lakshmi & Narayan. They are not the souls who become Golden-aged Lakshmi & Narayan. Yes, but their title will continue in the Golden Age for 8 generations. Baba has said in the Murli - * These know now that we become [Confluence Age] Lakshmi-Narayan. We will become Ram-Sita. (Mu , pg.3, end of the middle portion) Similarly, it has been said in another Murli - * There is a rule of Lakshmi-Narayan in the Golden Age. Then the same persons rule in the Silver Age as well. (Mu , pg.3, beginning of the middle portion) Since the incorporeal Ram Shiv causes establishment of heaven in practical through the last 84 th Confluence Age body of Silver Age Ram, this is why Golden Age is also called the kingdom of Ram or the abode of Ram. Baba has said in the Murli * The Golden Age is called Rampuri (abode of Ram). They utter the word, but they do not know as to who is Ram? (Mu , pg.2, end) * The name by which establishment [of Ramrajya] takes place, definitely his name will only be used. (Mu , pg.1, middle) But Shiv does not go to heaven at all. Therefore, there is no glory of the kingdom of Shiv, kingdom of Narayan, kingdom of Krishna. There is a glory only of the kingdom of Ram. This is why it has been said in the Murli - * Ramrajya is in the beginning of the Golden Age. (Mu , pg.3, middle) DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE WORLD EMPEROR AND THE GOLDEN AGE EMPEROR This is the reason why it has been written in bold letters below their feet Golden Aged World Emperor Shri Narayan and World Empress Shri Lakshmi. This write-up also proves that the Lakshmi & Narayan who are standing in the centre of the circle of Confluence-aged light, are World Emperors and not Golden-aged Emperors. There is a difference between the World Emperor and Golden Age Emperor. * When you become the Emperor of the world, then you will be called the father of the world only, will you not be? The Emperor of the world is the father of the world, isn t he? (AV , pg.303, end) * There is a difference between becoming a world Emperor or the Golden Age Emperor as well. (AV , pg.146, middle) The World Emperor exists where all

9 the religions of the world are present. Entire world means that the 500 crore human souls will bow before them. The English people will also call Him Lord Krishna. The English people will also accept him. In the murli also such versions have appeared which prove that the creators of heaven i.e., Lakshmi & Narayan are present in the Confluence Age. For e.g. there is a sentence, Everyone will call these Lakshmi & Narayan as the creators of heaven, heavenly God Father. The creators of heaven will only be called as the Heavenly God Father. But it is also true that ever since these souls are revealed as Lakshmi & Narayan, the entry of Supreme Soul Father into them is not proved, because then they become pure. But they get the entire power of the Supreme Father, Supreme Soul to control the world, don t they? On this basis the confluence-aged Lakshmi & Narayan are proved to be different. And it has also been said in the Murli - * Ram was also in fact a conqueror of the world, wasn t he? (Mu , pg.1, middle) Actually, the world consisting of 500 crores is called Jagat. This is the reason why the words World emperor Shri Narayan have been used below the feet of Lakshmi-Narayan in this picture. Actually, the souls of Radha-Krishna will not rule over the world of 500 crores in the Confluence Age. They will rule only over the population of 9 lakhs. This is why Radha-Krishna cannot be called World Emperors, but they can be called the masters of the Golden Age. This is why Baba has said in the Murli * One gets the highest inheritance from the highest Father. It (the inheritance) itself is (of) God (Goddess). Then second are the masters of the world Lakshmi-Narayan. (Mu , pg.2, end of the middle portion) Radha-Krishna will be called deities. Not God- Goddess. This is why Baba has said in the Murli - * God (Shiv) definitely created God-Goddess. (Mu , pg.2, end) CONFLUENCE AGE HEAVEN That itself is a wonder of the world. Heaven, paradise. Here people talk of the seven wonders, don t they? These are illusive. Godly wonder is heaven. That wonder of heaven does not exist now; so, the wonders of maya are formed. (Mu , pg.2, end) * Heaven is also called a wonder, isn t it? It is so beautiful. There are seven wonders of maya. There is one wonder of the Father. Keep those seven wonders on on side and this one on one side, still this side will be heavier. (Mu , pg.2, middle) * You are establishing heaven. There cannot be any engineer, officer like you. (Mu , pg.4, end) Here means in the Confluence Age and there means in the Golden Age heaven. 1. In the daily routine of the Golden Age, the natural musical instruments of the nature will wake you up, but look at the greatness from the period of the beginning of the Confluence Age Brahmins the Amritvela is so great. There, there are the instruments of nature and in the Confluence Age who wakes you up in the first period, i.e. Amritvela? The Lord of the nature, i.e. God Himself wakes you up. 2. Which sweet music do you listen? The Father calls you children, swee children everyday. This natural music instrument, the Godly musical instrument is greater than the musical instruments of the Golden Age nature. You have experienced it, haven t you? So, are the Golden Age instruments greater or these musical instruments of the Confluence Age greater? This is the time to create and record the sanskars and fruits (praarabdha) for the Golden Age. Sanskars are recorded and fruits are created. Everything happens in this Confluence Age. 3. There, you will eat very delicious and juicy fruits from the trees. Here, you eat the instant fruits containing the juice of all the relationships and filled with all attainments given to you by the Lord of the Tree (vrikshpati). 4. That is the fruit of the Golden Age, and this is the fruit of the Diamond Age. So, which is greater? 5. There, you will be sustained by servants and maids, whereas here, you are being sustained by the Father Himself. 6. There, your parents will be great souls, whereas here, the Supreme Soul Himself is your Mother and Father! 7. There, you will swing in swings studded with jewels, but do you know what the greatest swing of all is here? The Father s lap is your swing. The loveliest swing for a child is the lap of its parents. You don t have just one swing; you can swing in various swings. You have the swing of supersensuous joy and the swing of happiness. 8. There, you will play with jewels, with toys, with one another whereas here, the Father says: You can constantly play with Me in whatever form you want. You can play [with Baba] as your Friend, or your Brother. You can also play [with Baba] as His child or play with Him as your Child. You would never find such an imperishable toy that will neither break nor crack. And you will not even have to spend anything. 9. There, you will sleep comfortably on mattresses, whereas here, you sleep on the mattress of remembrance. 10. There, you go to the abode of sleep,

10 but at the Confluence Age, you can go to the subtle region with the Father. 11. You can tour only one abode in the aeroplanes (vimaans) there, but you can now tour around all three abodes in the vimaan of your intellect. 12. There, you will be called the masters of the world (vishwanaath), whereas here, you are the masters of the three abodes (trilokinaath). 13. There, you will have two eyes, but here, you have three eyes. 14. When compared to the Confluence Age, i.e. when compared to being knowledgeful, powerful and blissful, what will you be there? You will become royal buddhus (innocents). 15. In terms of the world, you will be supremely worthy of being worshipped (parampoojya); you will be respected by the world. However, in terms of knowledge, there will be a great difference. 16. Here, you say: Good morning and Good night to the Father, whereas there, it is just souls saying it to souls. 17. There, you will be world sovereigns, rulers of the world, whereas here, you are world benefactors, great donors and bestowers of blessings. So, who are more elevated? You become constantly the embodiments of happiness on hearing these things of the Golden Age. 18. Although you will eat various different foods there, here you eat Brahma Bhojan which is praised to be greater than even the food of the deities. So, constantly keep your golden-aged fruits and the importance and attainments of the present time in front of you. (AV , pg.753, 754, 755) There will be palaces of gold, diamond. Gold means truth. Palace means gathering. There will be palaces of gathering of truthful souls, forts of gathering of truthful souls. There will be palaces of diamonds. What is meant by a diamond? There will be souls which play a hero part. What are the eight deities? They are hero actors. Confluence Age heaven means that the Iron Age hell is a world of iron and stone and the Confluence Age heaven is a world of gold. Gold means there will be true gatherings. There will be a gathering of true children. There will not be a gathering of false ones. How will be the houses, palaces and forts in the Confluence Age heaven? They will not be many-storeyed. Fort means gathering. A house, fort is formed by joining the bricks. So, these are living bricks souls, and they are joined by the cement of love. The Supreme Soul Himself comes and joins [them]. So, the gatherings established by Maya consist of many storeys and the gathering established by the Father does not have many storeys. It is not as if there is one gathering over the other, third gathering over the second; for example, if a student is following the path of knowledge along with the family then that is also a gathering. Then the Gitapathshala which he visits, he will have to remain under the control of that person. This is a sangathen above that. So, this is the second floor. Then the Gita pathshala is attached to some center. So, the Gitapathshalas have to remain under the contol of the center. So, which floor is it? This is the third floor. Then the centers have to remain under the control of the small time zonal incharge. The small zonal incharge has to live under the control of the big zonal incharge. This happens to be the fifth storey. So, here in this world there are one gathering like palace over the other. (they are sitting above each other to control); but there will be only one king (and one religion) in the new world. (There will not be other inculcations, other rules). In the Golden Age, the kingdom of the first one of the 21 births will be controlled by one. There will not be storeys there. There will not be one gathering above another. The entire world will be one family. It is said Vasudhaiv kutumbkam on the path of bhakti that the entire world is our family. There will be a lot of spiritual love in the Golden Age and even in the first birth of the Golden Age, there will be a lot of attachment for one. Its king will be considered the Mother and the Father. The rivers of ghee and milk will flow in the Golden Confluence Age; it means that which is ghrit (purified butter)? It will be such pure ghrit, such ghee of remembrance that bathe a lot, there will not be any shortage. Now you are unable to have yog even if you make a lot of effort. You feel sleepy when you sit at amritvela. The rivers of ghee will flow there. This is a ghrit of remembrance. There is milk of knowledge. It is not about limited milk and ghee. The unlimited Father speaks unlimited topics to the unlimited children. We go to such world where lions and goats drink water together. (Mu , pg.3, end) Lion and goat will drink water from the same shore. Who is the lion? There are numberwise lions in the Rudramala. They are ferocious also. There will be a number one lion as well. What is shown in the amblem of Ashoka? Three lions are shown, aren t they? Who are they? Brahma, Vishnu, Shankar; these three souls are shown in the form of lions. So, that lion will also be there and when compared to it a goat will also be there. What is the specialty of a goat? Firstly, it studies and teaches the lesson of I, I (mai, mai) more, and secondly, it comes under anyone who catches its ears, that s all. Baba has said There are not just three lions in Trimurty, actually, one is a goat, one is a horse and one is a lion. Who is the lion? Prajapita is the lion and Vishnu/Vaishnavi Devi is the goat.

11 Both drink water at the same shore in the court of Shivbaba. What is meant by water? The water of knowledge. Lion-like souls which create the roars of knowledge and the goat-like souls which say mai-mai (I, I), both will drink water from the same shore. Which shore? The shore of knowledge. Pushpak vimaan (aeroplane) is not any other thing. Those who make purusharth now include the Ravana community as well as the Ram community. Those who belong to the Ravan community are also raining flowers, i.e. making flowers. What? What are they too making the thorns? They are also making flowers. The extent of intelligence which they have received from God, those souls of the Ravan community, whether they are seed-form souls of Advance [Party], and whether they are numberwise from the base-like souls of the basic [party], are there members of the Ravana community among them or not? There are members of Ravana community among those who follow basic knowledge and there are members of Ravana community among those who belong to the Advance Party as well. That is called Pushpak Vimaan. This is a soul like aeroplane. It is not that aeroplane-like soul. It is not that physical aeroplane which has been depicted in the scriptures. So, similarly, the kingdom that is going to be established in the Golden Confluence Age, the posts of all the souls will be declared according to their individual purusharth, for which Baba has said in the Murli - * If Baba says Don t do this, they will not listen. They will certainly do the opposite. A kingdom is being established; every kind of person is required in it. (Mu , pg.3, end of the middle portion) Those who inculcate nicely and make others inculcate will become kings and queens. Those who neither inculcate nor make others inculcate will go and become servants and maids, i.e. worth not a penny. They cannot think that we should go an b ecome kings and queens. This will be the condition of those who achieve a lower post they will neither study, nor be in the Father s remembrance. Baba says that if you make rounds on service, then you will become chakravartin kings. Those who make the maximum rounds on service will become the biggest kings. If you keep on roaming in the lokik world, business through the mind and intellect, through the bodily organs and through the words, then will you become the highest ones or the lowest ones? Then you will become small. Where should we make rounds? The mind should also remain busy in Godly service, the body should also remain busy and the mouth should alo remain busy. Those who make the biggest rounds will become big kings. This is why rotate the swadarshan chakra a lot and make rounds on Godly service, then you will become Chakravartin kings. Those who are dedicated only for Godly service become heirs. The worldly affairs end. Whatever is the Father s occupation is the children s occupation. Those who are heirs will be of the quality of kings, will they not be? So, those who become kings, their activity will also be of royalty or will it be an ordinary activity? Their activity will appear to be special. When they become kings, they will have made subjects (praja). There is one king and there are lakhs of subjects under him. So, they must have given message to so many lakhs of people. They might have risen in the eyes of those lakhs of souls that look, they showed us such a righteous path. This is the quality of kings. * The one who establishes connection with each and every soul of the world and become their helpers will become Maharajas, kings of the world. Just as Bapdada is dear and helpful to the world, similarly children should also follow, then you can become entitled to the post of the world emperor. (AV , pg.2, beginning) Kings - * You will not be able to become kings without becoming soul conscious. (Mu , pg.1, middle) Royal officers (raajya adhikaari) - * If you wish to become royal officers, then along with love, the power of studies, i.e. the power of knowledge, the power of service is also required. (AV , pg.1, end) Maharathi (elephant-mounted warriors), ghoreysavaar (horserider warriors), pyaadey (foot-soldiers) - * Those who are called Maharathi, their practice and practical should be together.the indication of the Maharathis will be that as soon as they practice, it will become practical. The ghoreysavaar will first practice and then do it in practical and the pyaadey will keep on thinking of plans. (AV , pg.228, middle) * The specialty of the Mahavir children is that they place remembrance ahead of service. The ghoreysavaar and pyaadey will keep service ahead of remembrance. This makes the difference. If you keep remembrance ahead of service, then it leads to success. If you keep service ahead, then whatever good or bad happens in service, you will be affected by its form and if you keep the remembrance ahead, then you can become detached easily. (AV , pg.281, middle)
