say farewell to the words ‘reasons’ and ‘problems’ and become an embodiment of solutions.

Today, BapDada, the Creator of the New Age, has come to give all His children everywhere congratulations for the New Year and the New Age. Children from everywhere have also arrived here in order to give congratulations. Have you come simply to give congratulations for the New Year or also for the New Age? Just as you have happiness of the New Age, so you also give happiness for the New Age. So, do you Brahmin souls remember the New Age just as much? Has the New Age come in front of your eyes? Just as it is in your heart that the New Year is just here, in the same way, do you experience that your New Age has just come? Is the awareness of this New Age just as close? Does the sparkling dress of your body come in front of you? BapDada is giving you double congratulations. Are the scenes and scenery of the New Age emerged in front of the children’s mind and their eyes? Your body, mind, wealth and relationships (people) of the New Age are so elevated, and you have a treasure-store of all attainments. You have the happiness that today you are in the old world and that just now you will go into the new kingdom. Do you remember your kingdom? Today, you have come here for a double task – you have come to bid farewell to the old and give greetings for the New Year. Similarly, have you come simply to bid farewell to the old year? Or, have you also come to bid farewell to the old nature, sanskars and old behaviour of the old world? It is easy to bid farewell to the old world, but does it feel just as easy to bid farewell to the old sanskars? What do you think? Have you also come to bid farewell to Maya or have you just come to bid farewell to the year? You want to bid farewell, do you not? Or, do you have a little love for Maya? Do you wish to keep her with you a little longer?

Today, BapDada wants to enable the children from everywhere to bid farewell to the old nature and sanskars. Are you able to do this? Do you have this courage? Or, are you thinking that you do want to bid farewell, but that Maya still comes? On this day, do you have the courage with the power of determination to bid farewell to the old sanskars and to give greetings for the sanskars of the New Age and the new life? Do you have this courage? Those who feel that this is possible, that it has to happen – do you have this courage? Those who feel that you have courage, raise your hands! Do you have courage? Achcha, those of you who haven’t raised your hands – are you still thinking? Did the double foreigners raise their hands? Those who have courage, raise your hands! Not everyone. Achcha. The double foreigners are clever because you have double intoxication. Just be careful! BapDada will see the result this month. BapDada is pleased that you are the children with courage. You are the children who respond with cleverness. Why? Because you know that, with one step of your courage, you will definitely receive a 1000 steps of help from Baba. You have a right. You have a right to 1000 steps of help. It is just that Maya tries to shake your courage. BapDada sees that you maintain courage well and BapDada also congratulates you from His heart. However, you do maintain courage, but, as well as that, you also create waste thoughts: “I am doing this, it has to happen, I will definitely do it…, I don’t know”. To have thoughts of not knowing weakens your courage. In between, there is this ‘but…’ “I am doing it, but…” “I do have to do it, but…” “I do have to fly ahead, but…” This makes your courage fluctuate. So, don’t think about ‘buts’ – you have to do it. Why would it not happen since the Father is with you? So, there cannot be any ‘buts’ with the Father’s company.

So, what newness will you bring about in this New Year? Strengthen the foot of your courage. Strengthen your foot of courage to such an extent that Maya herself is shaken, but your foot doesn’t shake. So, will you bring about newness in the New Year? Or, will you sometimes remain firm and sometimes fluctuate? You will not do this, will you? What is the duty and occupation of all of you? What do you call yourselves? Remember that. World benefactors, world transformers – this is your occupation, is it not? So, sometimes, BapDada is sweetly amused. You have the title of ‘World Transformers’, do you not? Are you world transformers? Or, are you transformers of London or transformers of India? Are all of you world transformers? Whether you are living in villages, in London or America, you are all world transformers, are you not? If you are, then raise your hands! Are you sure? Or are you only 75% that? Is it that you are 75% world benefactors and you are allowed not to be the other 25%? What is your challenge? You have even challenged nature that you are definitely going to transform nature. So, can the world transformers, the nature transformers, not become self-transformers? What is the Shakti Army thinking? This year, your title for the self and for the Brahmin family is ‘World Transformers’. Because, first, charity begins at home, so, you will reveal the practical form of your occupation, will you not? You yourself, and BapDada also want self-transformation; you know that. When BapDada asks all of you what your aim is, the majority of you say, “To become equal to the Father”. Is that right? You want to become equal to the Father, do you not? Or, will you see about it? Will you think about it? So BapDada also wants that, in this New Year – you are completing the 70th year and are now in the 71st year – you will demonstrate this by performing some wonder. All of you have a variety of programmes for service with so much enthusiasm; you are also successful in that. BapDada is happy that you are successful in the effort that you make. It doesn’t go to waste, but why do you do service? What do you reply? In order to reveal the Father. So, today, the Father is asking you a question. You have to reveal the Father and you definitely have to do that. But, before revealing the Father, reveal yourself. Speak, Shiv Shaktis. This year, will you reveal yourselves as the Shiv Shaktis? Will you do this? Janak, speak? Will you do this? (We have to do it.) Your companions, those sitting in the first row, the teachers in the second row – teachers, those who will do it this year. Not that you will do it at some time, but you will demonstrate this by doing it. Achcha – did all the teachers raise their hands or did some not raise their hands? Achcha, those from Madhuban? You have to do it, you have to. Those from Madhuban have to do this because you are close. Note down this date (31st Dec) and also the time (9.20 pm). And the Pandava Army? What are the Pandavas going to demonstrate? Victorious Pandavas. Not those who are only sometimes victorious, but you are the victorious Pandavas. Are you this? Are you going to demonstrate it this year? Or, will you say, “What can I do? Maya came, even though I didn’t want it, but she came”? BapDada has told you earlier too that Maya will not stop coming till the end. However, it is Maya’s duty to come and what is your duty? To be victorious. So, do not think, “I did not think, I did not want it, but Maya came and it happens!” Now, together with this year, BapDada also wants to enable you to say farewell to those words. At midnight, you will bid farewell to this year, will you not? So, when you ring the bell, what will it be the bell for? For the end of the day, the end of year or for farewell to Maya? There are two things. One is that you are weak in the power of transformation. You make very good plans. “I will do this, I will do that, I will do this.” Even BapDada becomes pleased that you have made very good plans. You have made very good plans, but, because you lack the power of transformation, some things become transformed, and other things are left. The second weakness is of determination. You have very good thoughts. Today BapDada saw so many cards, promises, resolutions etc. So many very good letters have come. (The stage was decorated with cards, letters, new year resolution notes.) So, you will do this and demonstrate it. It has to happen. You have to become this. Multi-multimillionfold love and remembrance. Everything has reached BapDada. The sound from the heart of all of those who are personally sitting here face-to-face has also reached BapDada. However, BapDada is now underlining these two powers. One is the lack of determination. The reason for this weakness is carelessness and seeing others. “It will happen, I am doing it… I will do it, I will definitely do it…”

BapDada now wants you to bid farewell this year to one word for all time. Should Baba tell you? Then you will have to bid it farewell. This year, BapDada wants to make you bid farewell to the word ‘reasons’. Let there be solutions and finish reasons. Let problems finish and become an embodiment of solutions. Whether the reason is the self, your companions, the gathering or the circumstances, in the Brahmin dictionary, the words ‘reasons’ and ‘problems’ should be transformed into ‘solutions’. Because, this morning at amrit vela, you spoke to Baba about these things, that in the New Year, you will do something new. So, now BapDada wants you to celebrate the New Year in a such a way that these two words finish. Become those who uplift others. Whether you yourself become a ‘reason’ or someone else is a ‘reason’, become one who uplifts others, be a merciful soul, be one who has good wishes and pure feelings and give co-operation and receive love. Make the power of determination and the power of transformation your constant companions.

Look, in the New Year, you also sweeten one another’s mouth: you give greetings and you sweeten their mouths, do you not? So, throughout the whole year, do not show any bitterness. Those people sweeten the mouths; you mustn’t just sweeten the mouths, but your face should also become sweet. Your face should always be filled with the love of spirituality, and always smiling. No bitterness.

So, in this New Year, BapDada wants you to remove this bitterness. Many of you have written your promises, saying that you don’t want it to, but it comes. So, BapDada told you the reason, that it is a lack of determination. You even make a promise in front of BapDada in your thoughts, but determination is such a power that even people of the world say about it, “Even if you have to leave your body, your promise must not be broken.” You may have to die, bow down, transform yourself, tolerate, but only those who remain firm in their promise are successful at every step, because determination is the key to success. All of you have the key, but you lose it when it is needed. So, what are your thoughts?

In the New Year, you definitely have to bring about newness – in yourself, in those who are co-operative with you and in world transformation. Are those who are sitting at the back listening? So, you are going to do this, are you not? Do not think, “The seniors will do it first; we are only little ones.” Little ones are equal to the Father. Each child has a right to the Father. Even if you have come here for the first time, when you have said, “My Baba”, you have a right. You have a right to follow shrimat and you also have a right to all attainments.

BapDada has seen that without the transformation of the children, the transformation of the world is taking place slowly. And souls are receiving new types of sorrow. There are new reasons why sorrow and peacelessness are growing. So, now, on hearing the cries of sorrow of the children, the Father wants to see transformation. So, O master bestowers of happiness, have mercy for those who are experiencing sorrow! Devotees too have become tired of performing devotion. Enable the devotees to receive their inheritance of liberation. Do you feel mercy or not? Are you busy in your own service and in your own timetable? You are also instruments. It is not that only the seniors are instruments. Each child who has said, “My Baba” and accepted this is an instrument. So, in the New Year, you also give one another a gift, do you not? So, you now have to fulfil the hopes of the devotees and enable them to receive a gift. Liberate those who are experiencing sorrow from their sorrow. Give them the peace of the land of peace. Give them this gift. In the Brahmin family, give every soul the gift of love and co-operation from your heart.

So, now become bestowers. Do not just accumulate. Become bestowers and continue to give. Is that OK?

Use the power of transformation and the power of determination very well. Achcha.

This time, it is the turn of Delhi and Agra for serving. It is good. Look, BapDada and your Mama directly sustained Delhi and Bombay. They went to other places for only a short time, but BapDada and your Mama directly sustained Delhi and Bombay. So, those of you from Delhi have this intoxication, do you not? So, in this too, claim number one. What can not be achieved? Determined faith guarantees your becoming victorious. You use determination very little – “We will see about it, we will do it, it will happen…” This language of leaving it to the future comes in between. It is good. Those from Delhi should become samples. Those who become samples receive extra marks in their final exams. It is good.

So, you are those who will claim marks, are you not? Are you this? Will teachers claim this? Achcha. What letters will now come? Of OK or of ‘OK’? Do not send those of ‘OK’. You will send letters of OK because everyone’s vision is on Delhi. All Brahmins are aware that they are only going to rule their kingdom in Delhi. So, those of you from Delhi will first have to accomplish this, will you not? It is good. Delhi has courage. You have courage, but now demonstrate by having courage in a collective way. Everyone’s vision is drawn to Delhi. It is good. You have had interest in doing service and so congratulations for that. You have accumulated in your account of charity. Achcha.

Double-foreigners: Those from abroad are increasing in number, and you are moving forward in serving the various countries that are still left to be served with zeal and enthusiasm. Some children are making intense effort in an incognito way and BapDada also has a list. There are these children in Bharat and also abroad, but, BapDada now wants to see this over a long period of time. You are doing this, but it has to be over a long period of time. Now, pay attention to “Over a long period of time”, because only those who are victorious over a long period of time will claim a right to the full half-cycle of the fortune of the kingdom. Become part of such a list of those who are intense effort-makers over a long period of time. Not those who are this only sometimes, but continuously, all the time. Is that OK? You are this. BapDada sees that you are the stars of hope. You will come onto the practical stage. You are this, are you not? You are the stars of hope, are you not? Children are the stars of the Father’s hope. Achcha. Congratulations. Congratulations.

Now, are you able to experience yourself as a master of the mind and stabilize your mind in one second? Are you able to order it? Reach your sweet home in one second. In one second, reach your kingdom, heaven. Does your mind obey your orders? Or does it fluctuate? If the master is worthy and powerful, it is not possible for your mind not to obey you. So, now practise for all of you to reach your sweet home in one second. Pay attention to practising this every now and again throughout the day. The concentration of the mind will make you yourself and the atmosphere powerful. Achcha.

To all the extremely elevated souls everywhere who are loving and co-operative with everyone, to all the victorious children everywhere, to all the children everywhere who are powerful with the power of transformation, to all the children who always reveal themselves and also reveal the Father, to the children who are always the embodiments of solutions and world transformers, love and remembrance from BapDada and please also accept blessings from His heart. As well as this, to all the children, who are also the crown of the Father’s head, to such children who are the crowns on the head, BapDada’s namaste.
