Slowly from slumber they emerge.

Awake Angels live in the world beyond the sky and come to this story for entertainment. The story is complex but a story nevertheless and the Awake Angels know this and this is why they are able to enjoy it so much and remain one hundred percent happy one hundred percent of the time. If they were ever to experience a moment's unhappiness they would realise they had nodded off and rapidly use their divine intellect and divine insight to reverse the situation.

At this time the Awake Angels are trying to awaken as many of their brothers as they can, as quickly as they can. This means they have to stay awake themselves and shine their light of peace and happiness so others can find the path. How is it possible to stay awake in such a world of action and distraction?

Continuous attention is needed. No need for tension in this, just attention. How do the Awake's do this? What is their secret? Practise, over and over again. These Angels are disciplined because they know the value of what they are doing. They experience the benefits first hand in the day-to-day. Why else would one spend the time?

Remaining detached and a guest

The Awake Angels visit this fictional story and are entertained as detached observers. They know the truth of this drama and they are keen to share it with their brothers, the rest of humanity, and awaken them. Awake means to experience a life of one hundred percent happiness and joy and to be light and to easily rise above those things that others find difficult.

The Awake Angels know that all are immortal angels and are Godlike in their nature. They view everyone through the filters of knowledge and see beyond the physical appearance and the role being played. This is why they remain light.

The Awake Angels know their true home, their Father the King and their family of noble brothers. They are safe and secure and have no needs which is why they can easily come and go between the story and their home without getting trapped and experiencing sorrow.

They know the truth and the truth sets them free and keeps them free as long as they remember it. They have very clear intellects and can easily distinguish between the true and the false and they have the strength to be able to put their decisions and judgements into practical actions.

All the Awake Angels efforts goes into maintaining and strengthening their awakened state and waking up the rest of their sleeping family. This is why they are one hundred percent happy for all time. They strive to establish and maintain the perspective of being a guest as well as an instrument for world transformation. This enables them to perform their task without any burdens.

Lucky Stars

Observing the Lucky Stars, the fortunate angels who are awake and able to clearly see themselves as they really are and see the play as small and insignificant. The Awakened Angels can be involved in the drama yet remain detached from it. To them it is easy and natural to stay in the awareness of their divine and noble nature, their wonderful family of noble princes and their Father the King of Kings.

These Lucky Stars are one hundred percent free from desire, one hundred percent free from sorrow, one hundred percent free from Maya. With the help of the Father and the family they are able to remain free from the madness of the drama at this time and serve their brothers who have not yet awakened. This service is their greatest happiness, their greatest joy.

For the Lucky Stars their is no greater pleasure than to help the members of their family, the whole world of souls, re-discover themselves, to awaken and transform their life from sorrow into eternal happiness.

Lest we forget

What happens if we do forget? Forget what? Forget who we are, where we are from and why we are here. Forget the Father and the laws of action. Forget we are immortal and eternal. Who is this 'we' anyway?

If we forget we die, if we remember we die. How so? One death contains constant happiness and freedom and the other eternal bondage and sorrow. Which will you choose?

This circular story contains our birth and death and our birth again. The elaborate story consumes and blinds us over time and yet time itself is the healer which brings us back to life. Remember this and joy becomes your birthright. Forget and life becomes a long arduous journey stumbling in the dark. Lest we forget!

Avyakt Bapdada 1st April 1982

"To become an angel means that whilst in a corporeal body you stay in the form of light, that is, with your intellect you remain constantly in the stage up above. Angels don’t set foot on the ground. How will you stay up above? With the intellect. Let the foot of the intellect always be in an elevated stage. 

Are you becoming such angels, or have you already become those? You are Brahmins anyway. If you weren’t Brahmins, you wouldn’t have got permission to come here. However, to what extent have you Brahmins adopted the angelic stage? Angels are shown with bodies of light. The more you consider yourself to be a soul, an embodiment of light, the more you consider yourself to be as light as you walk and move around, the more you will feel as though you are an angel walking in a body of light. 

An angel means to be one who has no connection with the awareness of his own body. To break your connection with body consciousness - not from the body, but from the consciousness of the body – means to be an angel. When your connection with the body is broken, you will then leave here. However, at the moment, your connection with the consciousness of the body has to be broken. 

You will then love this life a great deal and Maya will not attract you in any way. Achcha."

"I come to this practice to observe those sparkling lights, that is, the Awake Angels. They sparkle because there is no eclipse of Raven.

For them they are completely free of Raven and Maya. Being fully awake they have come out of the drama completely. Not even the tiniest thread holds them. They are completely detached. For them, they see the drama but they see it as a story. Small, insignificant. A story that does not relate to them. They are beyond that drama. They belong in the angelic world, in the angelic home, with their Father, their brothers. For them the drama is a place to visit, a place to do service and they do service by shining light. Their service is one of shining light, dispelling darkness, removing confusion, giving clarity. 

These angels, when awake, they naturally sparkle. They are clear, accurate, it's their natural nature. When waking up, that is when the eclipse of Raven is removed, they can't help but shine brightly. 

They are true sparkling stars and so their service depends on staying awake because when they're awake that bright sparkling star is visible, it attracts, it brings the other angels close, into contact. It exposes truth. 

And so for the Awake Angels to be free to shine, free to sparkle, to be free to come and go, to serve the other angels, this is the greatest happiness. To be their natural selves for them is the greatest fortune."

Not everywhere's in Somerset, Scrumpy.

The fictional character Phillihp Gough spent sometime in the lovely county of Somerset, England, but not a lot. Mostly it was just passing through on the way to the even lovelier Devon and Cornwall. He probably went on the very train shown in the picture on his way to Dawlish, Devon, with his best friend of the time, Raymond White and his parents, for a short holiday at the sea-side.

So it's clear that not everywhere is in Somerset. The sky beyond the sky is not in Somerset. Do you remember your home of light? No trains, just eternal silence, peace, bliss. More than enough to feel content.

Be still and know that I am God!

I think that should read, 'Be still (inwardly silent) and you'll realise that you are similar to God'.

We're similar, God and I but it's taken this one millennia to remember that. It's not that this one is God but there are many similarities which are significant, in the scheme of things. Take immortality for example. 

God is immortal and we are immortal. Being immortal is significant. It places a whole new slant on life knowing that we always exist. Knowing this should effect how one thinks and acts, day to day, minute to minute, second to second. Why, even just thinking about it produces shivers down the backbone. Nice shivers.

God is eternal and we are eternal. Nice one. No more death. Never born, will never die. Nice thoughts to contemplate whilst time passes by. 

God is bliss and we are bliss. Heck, what does the word even mean? Let's just publish and get back to this one!!

Behind the veil of illusion

The truth is we are God like, but what does that mean? Should it actually read, 'were God like'? A diamond is always a diamond even if covered in mud, right? The point is, our essence hasn't changed it's just become hidden so we still are God like. Our essence is locatable once we know where and how to look for it.

Well, we now know what God is like. What 'He' does and doesn't do. We know 'His' form, 'His' abode. Let's see how we shape up to the 'God list'. 

God is eternally;

• The Ocean of Love (hmmmm)
• The Ocean of Bliss (hmmmm)
• The Ocean of Peace (hmmmm)
• Eternally Powerful (hmmmm)
• Eternally Knowledgeful (hmmmm)
• Resides beyond the sky (not at the moment)
• Is a tiny point of conscious energy (we too)
• Eternal (we too)
• Immortal (we too)

Well, three point five out of nine. It's a start. My behaviour doesn't suggest I'm Bapsaman (equal to God) yet. If I was to remember it constantly it would be true. So it's a question of forgetting, of falling asleep. I didn't know my lineage before but now that I do, all that is necessary to make it so again is to stay awake.

Coming down to play our part(s)

The Awakened Angels come from their home of light where they reside with their divine family and Father, into this corporeal world and begin to play their part(s). For some, most, it is one part, maybe two or three but for others as many as eighty four different parts, eighty four different characters. Different gender, different nationality, different status but some angelic being.

As time passes in the play the Awakened Angels fall asleep and forget they are eternal, divine, non-physical beings and begin to associate and become entangled in matter and the role they are playing. Then sorrow comes into their life whereas before there was only joy, happiness, peace and bliss. They call themselves by the name of the part they are playing believing that to be who they are. The driver of the car thinks he's the car!!
