Revise Course Murli 14/05/1977
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.
Self-Respect And Orders.
Do you constantly remain happy while constantly remembering the fortune you have attained from Baba, the Bestower of Fortune? Out of the entire kalpa, it is only at this time that you attain the most elevated fortune. It is only at this time that you experience the stage of constantly being the most fortunate soul. Even in the future, you will not attain such a fortune. Just as the Father considers the children to be the ones with the most elevated fortune, do you consider yourself that fortunate? This is known as being stable in your stage of self-respect and paying attention to your thoughts, words and deeds.
Firstly, constantly maintain your self-respect. Secondly, follow Baba’s orders at every step. You have to pay attention to these two aspects: self-respect and order. Also, when you interact with others, it has to be with respect. By stabilising yourself in your self-respect, you will constantly maintain the stage of a destroyer of obstacles. Do you know what self-respect is? The Father’s praise is your self-respect. Even if you keep just one aspect of his praise in your awareness, you can automatically maintain your self-respect. By remaining stable in your stage of self-respect, you cannot experience any arrogance, whether it is arrogance of your body, intellect, name, service or particular virtue.
All of that comes to an end, and you thereby become a constant destroyer of obstacles. Those who maintain their self-respect are always humble. They do not have any arrogance but remain very humble. Through this, you automatically receive constant regard from others. Because of being beyond any desire to receive respect, you become worthy of receiving the most elevated respect from everyone. This is an eternal law. You do not receive respect from everyone by asking for it. Still, it is by giving respect to others and remaining stable in your stage of self-respect that matter becomes your servant, and it is because of your self-respect that you receive respect from others by right.
By renouncing the desire for regard, you receive the fortune of being respected by everyone. Those who maintain their self-respect do not receive respect from everyone for just this one birth but for the entire kalpa. Half the kalpa receive respect from their royal family and subjects, and the other half from their bhagats. You receive so much that while in your living form at this time, you can still see the reward of the respect you received even in your final birth. While you can see your non-living images in the living form, can you not? So, what was the basis of that respect you received for the entire kalpa?
Renunciation of short-lived respect. That is, you have to stabilise in your stage of self-respect, be humble and give respect to everyone. This giving becomes a form of receiving. To give regard means to put zeal and enthusiasm into other souls and, thus, enable them to move forward. Short-lived charity is performed by giving something short-lived or cooperating for a short time. However, it is permanent zeal and enthusiasm, the treasure of happiness and your cooperation, that enables souls to become charitable souls for all time. This is why this has become the most fantastic charity of all. Throughout the entire kalpa, you receive the fruit of the charity you perform in this one birth.
This is why Baba said: To give regard is not to give regard, but to receive it. In Lokik life, when someone performs an act of charity, he is respected by everyone. However, the fruit of this elevated charity is that you become both worthy of worship and respect. Ask yourself: Do I constantly perform such charitable acts as a charitable soul? Are you those who receive or those who give? When you think, “Give me regard; I should receive regard; why was respect for me not maintained? Why was the other one given respect?” The feeling of asking this way is also a royal form of begging. So, have self-respect and respect for others. You have to maintain your self-respect and also give respect to others.
What else do you have to do? You have to follow orders at every step. The entire world is surrendered to those who follow orders at every step. Maya, along with her entire progeny, totally surrenders. If Maya is constantly waging war against you, it proves you need to follow orders at every step. Because you do not follow Baba’s orders constantly, Maya also does not surrender to you instantly. This is why Maya wages war constantly and why you repeatedly become those who cry out in distress. When you call out, “Maya has come”, this is crying out in distress. “Today, she came in this form. What shall I do now? How can I finish Maya’s obstacle?”
Because you did not instantly surrender, Maya cried out in distress, and you also cried out in distress. Therefore, if you follow orders, Maya will surrender to you. When you surrender to the Father, Maya will surrender to you. The method of following orders is so easy! Self-respect and following orders are very easy. Adopting this method will liberate you from difficulties for many births. You are an easy yogi, and you will have an easy life in the future. So create such an easy life. Do you understand? Okay. To the obedient children who constantly follow orders; to those who constantly maintain their self-respect; to those who renounce short-lived, perishable respect; to those who attain the part of being respected and worshipped by everyone; to the souls who have surrendered themselves to the Father; to the loving souls who constantly give respect to everyone and who become worthy of their love, BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste.
Is the pandav army on the battlefield? Pandavs are known as mahavirs. A mahavir means one who is constantly a conqueror of Maya. Mahavirs do not become afraid of Maya, but they challenge Maya. No matter what form Maya comes in, you must recognise her with the power of discrimination and become victorious. So, have you developed the power to recognise her? When Maya comes, can you recognise her from a distance, or do you recognise her when she begins to attack you? The sharper your power to recognise is, the more you can see Maya off from a distance.
If you chase her away after she has come, time is wasted. Then, having come, she sometimes even sits down. Therefore, you mustn’t allow her to come. Nowadays, you have to practise being far-sighted. Scientific instruments help them to see things at a distance. Previously, when storms would come, you had to prepare to protect yourself from them, but it is not like that any more. Now, when you know a storm is coming, you try to avert it. Since science is advancing, the power of silence must also be very far advanced. You must be constantly stable in the trikaldarshi stage to see Maya off from a distance.
You have to see every aspect in the three aspects of time: "What the situation is, what its present form is, and how you can finish it in the form that it came earlier and in the form that it has come now.” When you see the three aspects, Maya will not defeat you in her war against you. However, because you are not in the trikaldarshi stage, when you look at everything, you only see the present, and this is why there is sometimes victory and sometimes defeat; there isn’t a constant victory. Maya can never be protected from those who remain stable in their trikaldarshi stage. If Maya wages war repeatedly, you will not be able to experience supersensuous joy even if you want to.
It is remembered that the supersensuous joy of the confluence age is such a blessing that it cannot be experienced in any other age. This is the experience of the present time. So, if you have not experienced supersensuous joy, what have you accomplished as a Brahmin? The speciality of being a Brahmin is to experience supersensuous joy, and if you haven’t experienced this, you haven’t done anything. Therefore, constantly check that you are constantly experiencing supersensuous joy.
What would be the sign of those who remain in supersensuous joy? Those who remain in supersensuous joy will never be attracted towards joy experienced through the physical organs.
Just as a wealthy person walking along a street, he is never attracted to anything because he is complete. Similarly, those who stay in supersensuous joy will consider the pleasure gained through physical organs like poison. So, would anyone be attracted by poison? In the same way, they would constantly remain beyond the pleasure experienced through physical organs. They would not have to labour, but because of being knowledge-full, they would recognise all of that (pleasure through physical organs) to be degraded. If, while moving along, you become attracted towards the pleasure of the physical organs, it proves that you lack something in your experience of supersensuous joy.
You have the desire to experience this but have yet to attain it. It means that you are still a seeker, not a child. A child has a right, whereas a seeker has a desire. It is not that you desire to attain something, but you have already attained it. You are those who experience the happiness of this right. Constantly maintain this supersensuous joy. For how many births have you been experiencing pleasure through physical organs? You also know what attainment you gained through that, do you not? What did you attain? You gained something and then lost it. Since you have lost it, why are you still attracted to it?
The time of attainment of supersensuous joy is even shorter now. If you don’t attain it now, you will never attain it. If you don’t make a bargain for it now, you never will. You keep thinking about it: Should I discard this or not? Baba says: If you let go, you will be able to leave it. You say, “I am not able to let go.” You are holding onto it, and then you say that you cannot let go! You are the creators, so don’t let this make you stumble repeatedly. To remain constantly unshakeable and immovable, which virtue should you specifically imbibe? Become a customer of virtues. If you pick up virtues in every situation, you will not fluctuate.
To pick up virtues means to have benevolent feelings. When you see defects, there are feelings of harm and fluctuation. To see virtues in defects is known as picking up virtues. Even while seeing defects, you should pick up virtues. Pick up virtues from those with defects; just as they are firm in their defects, you must remain firm. Become a customer of virtues, not defects. Which food makes the soul constantly powerful? That of happiness. It is said that there is no nourishment like happiness. Those who maintain their happiness would be powerful. By using the shield of drama very well, you will constantly remain happy and never wilt.
If you are constantly aware of the drama, you will never wilt. Even in your intellect, you should constantly have happiness, not just in the form of knowledge. No matter the scene, you should seek benefit from it, and you will constantly remain happy. To come to such an elevated land means to be very fortunate. To keep this fortune constant, pay constant attention that your stage remains steady. To be steady means to be so lost in the sweetness of One that nothing else will attract you. If your intellect is pulled towards any other sweetness, then you will not be able to remain steady or constant.
Do you experience yourself as knowledge-full and an ocean of knowledge, the same as the Father? To be knowledgeable means to perform truthful actions and not waste anything constantly. Since you are the children of the true Father, and you are establishing satyug, your actions should also be proper. All your thoughts, words and deeds should be truthful. This is known as being the same as the Father, master knowledge-full, an embodiment of knowledge. 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.”
