person is to be taken as PRAYER from head to foot (top to toe); and every thought of such a person shall be exactly what is to be the wave of Master’s will: “Whatever is to be shall happen through the wave (of Master’s will), hence be dependent on that wave” (Hindi couplet).
4. “Such a person shall never get oriented to anything against the intent of Divine Authority. He will desire just what is to be Master’s command. People are to be prepared for offering prayer like this. If someone has perfected this or got established in this state, then just tell me what may still remain (for him) to do except his remembrance (of the Lord). And what sort of remembrance ? Just that remembrance which never is to occur. Bigger than the Big people went just pining for (hankering after) this, but could not get to the shore : only pining remained !”.

Style Of Speech
“The style of speech should be like mine, viz. devoid of rise and fall in pitch; so to say, rather in the shape of the divine current flowing evenly since the beginning of creation. I had copied just that. Its benefits are numerous, beyond the possibility of narration. This is a philosophy, viz. when the flow of talking proceeds in conformity with Reality, there develops a state of affinity between the two (Reality and speech); and through that (affinity) the divine way starts developing automatically. This results in effectiveness: whatever is spoken goes on making a dent (in the heart of the persons of the audience). In other words, a sort of relationship with the current of Reality gets established; and when a relationship is created, effectiveness has to be there. If someone copies it, only those words will be flowing out during speech which are intended and are right. This thing will be mentioned in my biography also. The technique for (achieving) this consists first of all in attempts at reducing the rise and fall in voice (which is also called sharpness), while talking. This flow (of speech) will go one acquiring affinity with that (current of Reality) to the extent that such a reduction is achieved (progressively). By ‘sharpness’ I do not imply anger alone: that remains something extremely gross; and it should not be allowed admittance at all in this context. What I mean is that the flow of speech should not carry any kind of burden on it. An illustration of this can be the currents of (still) air. This is very difficult as well; but everything is possible to achieve through sustained effort and courage, if Master’s Grace is along with it. A Persian couplet : ‘There
