They must carry out my wishes with a cheerful willingness, without in any way feeling it is an encroachment on their freedom. Naturally, those who feel that carrying out my wishes would be an encroachment on their right of freedom will decide not to join me in the New Life, but will choose to become Old Life disciples again or to live independent lives. In either case, I not only urge them to make one of these two choices, but will also try my best to help them make a good start.
Just as those joining me in my New Life today are expected to serve me with 100 percent willingness, so I hope to be able to serve my servants with impartial love and an unbiased attitude.
With the reshuffling of decisions today, all the plans, namely, Plans One, Two and Three, as well as the term "Nowalas" will cease to exist. Now only the Old Life disciples, the Arrangementwalas (who are also Old Life disciples) and the servants of the New Life will remain.
If I am the One my Old Life disciples take me to be, I would wish them to endeavor wholeheartedly to stick to their faith and love, to carry out my Old Life instructions without any feeling of enforced bondage on their part, and to live a life worthy of real love. And irrespective of what I am, the most compassionate God will surely reward them spiritually, even if they do not seek reward. As to the Arrangementwalas, I ask God to give them courage to carry out their responsibilities to the very end.
As for the Old Life disciples, Arrangementwalas and the Old Life women ashramites, all instructions and responsibilities previously given to them stand good for all time. Also, my instructions regarding their not contacting me in any way, and not having correspondence with me or those who are with me stand good at all times, unless otherwise ordered by me.
My Old Life places me on the altar of Absolute Godhood and Divine Perfection. My New Life makes me take the stand of a humble servant of God and His people.
In my New Life, Perfect Divinity is replaced by Perfect Humility. In my New Life, I am the Seeker, the Lover, and the Friend. Both these aspects — Perfect Divinity and Perfect Humility — have been by God's will, and both are everlastingly linked with God's Eternal Life.
