Revise Course Murli 02/08/1973
The Incorporeal point of light, God Shiva, has descended on this earth and is establishing righteousness (Dharma) through knowledge and power.
One should read the Murli in a soul-conscious state as taught by The Supreme Teacher and Sadhguru Shiv Baba. Thoughts to create the soul conscious state are as follows:
1. I am a Peaceful Soul; God Shiva is my Supreme Father.
2. I am a Godly student; God Shiva is my Supreme teacher.
3. God Shiva is my Sadhguru; I am Master Sadhguru.
4. God Shiva is my life partner; I am God Shiva's life partner.
The Soul conscious stage/yoga stage becomes natural when all relations are established with Shiva Baba, and the duty of that relation is practised in the Brahmin life.
While in the Soul-Conscious stage, Murli should be read with the feeling that the Supreme Teacher and Sadhguru Shiv Baba are talking to me directly and teaching me personally.
Attain Success by Using the Right Method.
Do you consider yourselves to have success through the correct method? Whatever effort anyone makes, his effort aims to attain success. People of the world today have a lot of occult power, and so, on that side, there are the occult powers, and here is attaining success through using the proper method. The correct way to attain success is through using the proper method. Because of taking this in another form, they have gone into using occult powers. So, do you consider yourselves to be the embodiment of success? Whatever thoughts you create, if they are accurate according to the correct method, you attain success.
If you do not have the correct method, then understand that you will not have success either. Therefore, on the path of bhakti, whatever activity anyone carries out or has carried out by others, its value is placed on it being carried out with the correct method. It is because they do it using the correct method that they experience success. Everything has begun from here, has it not? Baba asks: Do you consider yourselves the embodiment of success, or do you still have to become this? According to the time, the result in both areas should be at least 65%. You are seeing the speed of time and issuing a challenge, so whatever challenge you have issued will only be completed when you become complete in your stage.
You have issued a challenge; on what basis will that transformation occur? What is its foundation? You are its foundation, are you not? If the foundation is not strong, how would everything else progress further? The kingdom will be ready number-wise after the foundation has become ready. If those who want to claim a right to rule a kingdom do not, how would the others claim their right, number-wise? It would help if you attained success in your stage by using the proper method to succeed in the world benefit task. First of all, there has to be success for the self. You have to complete such a massive task in such a short time, and so your speed has to be that fast.
Have you created any plans for attaining this fast speed, that is, how you can become the embodiment of success through which you would attain success as soon as you create a thought? This is the sign of being 100% the embodiment of success; that is, as soon as you act, you receive success. Since they can attain success through occult power using ordinary knowledge, by using elevated knowledge, do you need help to attain success using the correct method? You need to check which method you need to improve, which is not allowing you to attain complete success. By checking the method, you will automatically attain success.
The main reason for failing to succeed is that you must do all three service forms simultaneously. You have to do all three forms of service in all three ways simultaneously. Knowledge-full, powerful and full of love: love and law are included. You have to do service in these three forms, but you also have to do it simultaneously through your thoughts, words, and actions. When you do service through words, your thoughts should be potent. With a decisive stage, you will be able to change other people's minds, and you will make them knowledge-full through words. And then, through your actions, that is, through whoever comes into contact with you, that connection should be so full of love that they automatically experience themselves to have reached their Godly family.
Your behaviour should be such that they automatically feel this is their natural family.
If you control the mind of others in these three ways, so that through giving them knowledge in words, you give them the blessing of light and might, and through actions, that is, through your connection and your physical activity, you give them the experience of the Godly family, then, by doing service with this accurate method, would you not be able to attain success? Not attaining this is because you need to do three forms of service in all three ways. When you use words, the mind that should be powerful is not; it is less powerful.
And, when you bring someone into your connection through your entertaining activity, the mind that should be powerful does not remain so powerful. If all three forms of service took place simultaneously, you would attain success. Now, you need to practise and pay attention to this to do service in this way. You do not come into connection with others very deeply, but only superficially, and a superficial connection is only temporary. You give them love, but together with being full of love, you also have to be robust so that you fill those souls with power through which they can face the problems, the environment and the vibrations and thereby be able to maintain a relationship for all time.
However, this does not happen. They are either attracted by knowledge or by your love. Primarily, they are attracted by your love and, secondly, by your knowledge. But it would help if you had such a decisive stage that, no matter what the situation is in front of them, they will not fluctuate. Just this is lacking now. Those serviceable instruments have more knowledge and love but less power. What would be the sign of a decisive stage? In one second, to finish any atmosphere or problem of Maya, they would never be defeated. All the souls who come as a problem will surrender themselves to you. In other words, nature becomes your servant.
Since the five elements can become your servants, would human souls not surrender themselves to you? So, this is the practical form of having a decisive stage. This is why you are told that success will be visible in every action when service takes place in all three forms simultaneously. And so, that is attaining success through the proper method. When the correct method is lacking, then you also need more success. To become the embodiment of success, first of all, put this method right. On the path of bhakti, they make spiritual endeavours, whereas here, you have the facilities. What facilities do you have? You will become a unique soul by imbibing within yourself all of BapDada's specialities.
When the days of examinations are close, you revise and check yourselves in both the theory and the practice of whatever you have studied to see what you are missing in each subject. In the same way, now that the time is coming close, check yourself in every subject and see what you are lacking and to what percentage. You have to limit yourself in both the theory and the practice. While noting the weakness in each subject, make yourself complete. However, you can only make yourself complete when you first revise and note your weaknesses. You know the subjects. What is the sign of knowing whether you have imbibed the subjects in your intellect?
As the percentage of your success increases, your time will be well-spent. You will attain more tremendous success in less time. This is known as success. If you take a long time, make a lot of effort, and then attain success, this is a low percentage. You should use less in every aspect; you should not have to use your body or thoughts so much. Otherwise, how many thoughts do you have? It takes up to a month and a half to create plans. So, it would help if you did not use so much of your time, thoughts or the treasure of your powers; you should attain greater glorification through less expenditure. Then, you will only have those thoughts through which you would attain success.
The time fixed would be that in which success is already guaranteed. This is known as being the embodiment of success. How would you recognise what percentage you have passed in each subject? To the extent that you pass in each subject, then accordingly, based on that subject, you will attain your objective (aim)and respect. Together with this, you will experience attainment. For instance, in the subject of knowledge, there will be the experience of the attainment of light and might. Based on knowledge, you will receive just as much respect, whether from the divine family or other souls. Look at the great souls of today; why do they receive so much respect?
Because whatever spiritual endeavour they have made and subjects they have studied, they achieve the objective and respect of doing that, and nature becomes their servant. So, this was just the aspect of knowledge you were told. In the same way, there is also the subject of yoga; what should be the objective of that? You should be able to attain your objective through yoga and the power of remembrance. Whatever thoughts you create, they will be powerful. And if any problem is about to come, then with the power of yoga, you would have the experience that something is about to happen. So, because of knowing this in advance, you would never be defeated.
In the same way, through the power of yoga, you can finish the burden of your past sanskars. Then, no sanskar of yours will be an obstacle to you. Then, what you call nature will also help your efforts. Whatever the objective of each subject, that should be experienced. If you achieve your objective, then as a result, you will receive respect. Whatever words you repeat through your lips or whatever plans you create, because of your being powerful, everyone will respect them; that is, when you advise one another, they will respect that because you are powerful. In this way, examine every subject.
The attainment in the subjects of divine virtues and service is that you should come into close connection and relationship. By coming into close connection and relationship, you will receive respect automatically. In the same way, check the objective of each subject, and the instrument to check your objective is respect. If I am knowledge-full, then does whoever I give knowledge to give that much respect to the knowledge? To give respect to knowledge means to respect the One who is knowledge-full. If you have an objective in the subject of yoga, then you can make others powerful in transforming their thoughts. So they will give respect. You have to check yourself in every subject in this way.
Those who experience the attainment of this objective and respect for each subject and thought would be perfect. To be perfect means to be beyond any effect; only then are you perfect. You will then be beyond being affected in any way by your body, your thoughts or by coming into connection with anyone, and so you will understand that you have passed in your subject; that is, you would be perfect. So you are becoming like that, are you not? This is your aim. Now, there should be more checking of the self. Just as you tell others to bring about transformation within the self with the changing of the times, in the same way, you should always have the awareness that, together with the time, you also have to transform yourself.
While transforming yourself, the world will be transformed because only based on the transformation of the self will you be able to carry out the task of world transformation. This is the greatness which others do not have. Those people only try to transform others, but you transform the world here based on self-transformation. So, because you are the basis of transformation, you must pay that much attention to yourself. Now, constantly be aware that every thought is connected to world benefits. If those who are the image of support do not have power in their thoughts, they create weakness in bringing about the transformation of the time.
Because of this, the more powerful you become, the closer you can bring the time of change to the world. Even though the time is fixed according to the drama, on what basis is the drama created? There must be something on which the drama is ultimately based. You are the basis (images of support) for this, are you not? You are in everyone's vision. You have issued a challenge for two years, have you not? When you hear these things, you have a few thoughts about what would happen if it did not happen like that. You do not have the thought: What if it does not happen in two years? You will face it when it happens; that is a different matter.
This means there is something in your thoughts which is why these thoughts arise. Are you sure that it will happen in two years? OK, what if someone asks you: What will happen if destruction does not occur? What would you say then? When you explain to them, you should clearly explain that destruction will not be completed in two years. No, in two years, the scenes will be such that people will understand that actual destruction has begun and is taking place. If they find one thing easy, they will find the other thing easy, too. Of course, destruction will take time, will it not? What task is the advance party carrying out?
They are preparing the entire field for all of you. Whether you go into their family or not, they will be instruments for the task of establishment that is to take place. Someone with a powerful stage would be instrumental. They will attain such powers that they will become the helpers in the task of establishment. Nowadays, you can see that people have a lot more regard for those whom they consider the new blood. The further you progress, the better the intellect of the young ones will work; the intellect of the older ones will not work similarly. In comparison to older people, the younger ones are said to be satopradhan.
Because of having a little power of purity, their intellect will be able to function in a way that the intellect of the older ones does not. There will be this change. Even older people will give regard to the advice of the younger ones. Even now, older people think that they belong to the old world and that if they do not give regard to those of today's world, nothing will work if they do not give them that regard and consider them to be necessary. Previously, they used to be bossy with the children; now, it is not like that. Now, they consider the children to be the masters. This is also a part of the drama. The younger ones will perform wonders.
The advance party is getting on with its work, but they are also waiting for you to advance in your stage. Their work has to move along in connection with you. The basis of the entire task is on your unique souls. As you move along, you become slack. The fire is ignited, and then it becomes cool again. But it should not become so cool again, should it? People see the external form and think that this has continued for a long time, so they ask what the big deal is. The game has been continuing from the beginning of time. But why is there this coolness as you move along? What is the reason for this? The percentage is tiny.
You give many lectures, but together with the lectures, your features should also attract attention, and then there would be an effect of the lecture. So check yourself in every subject. Nowadays, when you compete in giving lectures, many others also win, but when it comes to putting it into practical form, they will all be defeated by you. The primary speciality is practical life. When you show any practical aspect, then they become reticent. So, when the effect of the practice is given through your lectures, you will be seen to be unique in the lectures you give. The words you speak should be visible in your eyes so that what you speak of is in a practical form.
Only when you are the embodiment of experience will you be able to create an impression on them. Everyone has become tired of just listening; they have heard much. Because there are many people who relate things, everyone has become tired. They say that they have heard a great deal and now wish to experience or attain some attainment. Your lectures should have such power that each word gives them an experience. You explain to people to consider themselves souls, not bodies. So, there should be such power in your speaking these words that the people listening to you experience power in your words.
If they have this experience for even one second, they would never let go of it. They would be attracted and come to you. You try to take them into silence now and again as you give a lecture, but you now have to increase this practice. Please continue to bring them into this experience. If you wish to create unlimited disinterest in this old world for them, then as you give them points in your lectures, also create an experience of disinterest. They should feel that this world is about to finish, and attaching their hearts to it would be wasteful. Then, they will do it practically. Those pundits have power in their speaking.
In one second, they can give happiness, and in one second, they can make people cry. This is why it is said that someone's lecture is very effective. They can make the entire gathering laugh and are also able to make everyone have momentary distaste, are they not? Since there is so much power in their lectures, can there not be that power in your lectures? Are you able to give them the experience of being bodiless so that that wave spreads everywhere? So that, the waves of love for the Father spread through the entire gathering? This is known as giving a practical experience.
Now, there should be such lectures that there will be some change. They should feel that your lectures are unique compared to others. Although those people can make people within a gathering laugh or cry, they cannot give the experience of being bodiless, nor can they create love for the Father in those people. They can forge love for Krishna but not for the Father. They are not even aware of this. And so, something unique should happen. Okay, for instance, when you give points about the God of the Gita; until they know the Father, until they know the soul and the Supreme Soul until they have this experience; how can you prove this aspect?
There should be someone who can give such a lecture that he can give them the experience of day and night difference between the soul and the Supreme Soul. Only when those people realise the difference will you be able to prove who the God of the Gita is. It will not sit in their intellect with just the points; through the points, many more waves will be created. But continue to give them an experience, for nothing can compete with practical experience. Now, bring about this change in your lectures. Okay.
The method taught by the Supreme Teacher and Sadguru Shiv Baba after reading Murli is "Churning."
Shiv Baba explained the method of churning in four Murlis.
01.02.1979
23.12.1987
10.01.1988
07.04.1981
The power of churning is the food for the divine intellect.
"What is the essence of each statement? At what time and by what method should each sentence be used in action? And by what method should each sentence be used in action in service to other souls?" - Each sentence should be churned in these four ways.
By churning the knowledge, we will have powerful thoughts, stage, and awareness.
By churning the knowledge, we will automatically remember The bestower of knowledge, Shiv Baba.
To know the thoughts used for churning, see the column heading “Treasure of Powerful Thoughts.”
