Revise Course Murli 25/01/1979
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.
To Give Regard Is To Receive Regard.
Today, Baba, the Bestower of Fortune, was especially examining the record of all his fortunate children from the beginning until now. What record was he examining? He was examining your record of giving regard. Giving regard is the unique way to take Brahmin life into the ascent stage. Those who give regard are the unique souls of the present time, and they also become worthy of receiving regard from all souls for birth after birth. From the moment he came in the human form, BapDada has always given regard to the children. He always considered the children to be more elevated than Himself and surrendered himself to them.
"Children first and then the Father". Children become the crown of the head; children become worthy of worship in two ways, and it is the children who become the instruments to reveal the Father. From the beginning, Baba gave regard to everyone. In the same way, children following the father from the beginning have kept an excellent record of giving regard to everyone. Each of you should check yourself to see what your record is like. Firstly, examine your record to see your regard for the Father. Secondly, how much regard do you have for the knowledge you have received from the Father? Thirdly, how much regard you have for yourself.
Fourthly, how much regard do you have for all souls, whether they belong to the Brahmin family or are just souls who come into contact with you? Check yourself as to what record you have in all these four subjects. How many marks did you receive in all four subjects? Did you have full marks in all four subjects, or were your marks better in some subjects than in others, according to your capacity? Firstly, to have regard for the Father means to know and recognise him accurately as he is and to fulfil the code of conduct in all your relationships. To have regard for the Father is to follow the Father.
To have regard for the Teacher is to be regular and punctual in your study and to pay full attention to all the subjects you are studying. To have regard for the Satguru means to follow his instruction to forget your body and all your bodily relations. It means becoming soul-conscious and stabilising yourself in the celestial stage like the Father. It means to remain ever-ready to return home. To have regard for the Bridegroom means to remain lost in love for that One in every thought at every second and to remain faithful to him in everything you do: "I eat with you, I do everything with you." To have regard for your Friend is to constantly experience his companionship in whatever you do.
Similarly, to fulfil all relationships is to have regard for your relationship with him. To have regard is to follow the saying: "Mine is the one Father and none other." The Father says something, and the children put it into practice; they constantly step in the Father's steps. The dictates of your mind and others should be removed from your intellect to such an extent that it seems as though they never existed. The dictates of your mind and others shouldn't touch your thoughts, even in your dreams; you should be ignorant of them. Only the shrimat of the One should be in your intellect.
Only listen to the one Father, only speak of the things that the one Father has told you, only see the one Father, only walk with the Father, only think of the things that the Father has told you, and only perform the elevated deeds that the Father has told you to perform. This is called maintaining your record of having regard for the Father. In this way, check whether your record in the first subject is first-class or second-class. Is it constant, or does it sometimes break? Is your record of having regard unshakeable, or does it go into upheaval according to the circumstances of Maya? Is your line straight, or does it sometimes become crooked?
Secondly, to regard this knowledge means to have unshakeable faith in all the elevated versions spoken from the beginning to the present. To ask questions such as: "How will that be possible? When will it happen? It should happen, but…; it is the truth, but…" means to have subtle doubts in your thoughts, which also means disregarding this knowledge. The versions spoken by the souls of today who are great in name only, those who show temporary miracles, deprive you of meeting the Father, and divert you from the truth, are said to be the versions of truth. So, to raise questions or doubt any of the knowledge given by the Satguru, the Supreme Father, the Creator of all the great souls, is also a royal form of doubt or disregard.
It is one thing to ask questions for clarification, but something else to ask questions based on subtle doubts. This is known as having disregard. "Baba is saying this, but this can't happen". In which account would this thought accumulate? You have to check this also. Thirdly, having regard for the self is to experience stability in the stage of whatever titles you have received from the Father in this elevated spiritual life, Brahmin life. It is also the praise of your form and stage based on your virtues and tasks, such as being a spinner of the discus of self-realisation, an embodiment of knowledge and love, and having an angelic stage.
You have to conduct yourself knowing who you are. "What I am means I am an elevated soul. I am a direct child of God. I have a right to his unlimited property. I am a master almighty authority." To continue interacting with others, knowing yourself as you are is known as having regard for yourself. "I am weak! I have no courage! Baba is saying this, but I cannot become this. It is my part in the drama to come later. I'll be happy with whatever I receive." To feel hopeless in this way is to have disregard for yourself. You also have to check your record regarding yourself. Fourthly, to regard souls who come into a relationship or contact with you means to have elevated feelings for all souls, whether they are Brahmin souls or souls who don't have this knowledge.
It would help if you wanted to uplift them, to make them move forward and benefit everyone. When you have imbibed this virtue and interact with all souls accordingly, you have regard for everyone. Constantly look at the virtues and specialities of all souls. Look at them, but don't see their defects. This is known as souls having regard for other souls. To cooperate with all souls with your power of awareness is to have regard. To have regard for everyone is to observe the mantra of "You first" constantly in your thoughts and acts and to consider the weaknesses or defects of others to be your own. You should accommodate and transform them instead of telling others about them and spreading them.
To reduce someone's significant weakness, to reduce a mountain into a mustard seed instead of making a mountain out of a mustard seed is to have regard. To make hopeless souls powerful, not to be coloured by their company, but to constantly give them zeal and enthusiasm is known as having regard. Check how many marks you have claimed in this fourth subject. Do you understand how you have to give regard? Those whose regard for everything in all four subjects is suitable become worthy to receive regard from all the world's souls. At present, they would be called world benefactors. In the future, they will be the world emperors.
In the middle part, they will be the elevated and worship-worthy souls. To become a world emperor, you have to create such a record. To give regard to others is to receive regard. Giving becomes a form of receiving. You give one, and you receive ten-fold. So this is easy. Those from Karnataka are always embodiments of love for the Father. The land of Karnataka is straightforward to serve. The land is fruitful because of their devotional feelings, so service has grown well. According to the drama, the land of Karnataka has quickly received the blessing of receiving Baba's message. Unique souls can emerge from this land very quickly.
However, what do you have to do in the future? Whatever service growth occurs, you must interact with everyone according to your discipline. Constantly be a mahavir in sustaining them with all your power. You must bring about the speciality of maintaining a balance between love and power. You innocent children of the Innocent Lord are perfect. You are good moths. BapDada likes all of you. To be liked by the Father, you must also be liked by the people you serve. Okay. To those who constantly follow the Father; to the obedient and faithful souls who fulfil every order; to the constantly great donors, the bestowers of blessings; to the world-benefactor souls who enable all souls to move forward by giving them regard; to the souls who constantly have positive thoughts, BapDada's love, remembrance, and namaste.
BapDada's elevated versions spoke to souls personally.
1. Do you constantly consider yourself to be a holy swan? A holy swan lets go of anything wasteful and constantly picks up that which is powerful. Those swans separate milk from water, but a holy swan separates anything wasteful from the powerful; it lets go of the wasteful and picks up the powerful. Just as a swan would never pick up stones but always pick up pearls, holy swans also constantly adopt the Father's virtues. They don't adopt the stones of the weaknesses of others. Such souls are known as holy swans; they are pure and clean souls. The way of interacting and the diet of pure souls would be according to how pure they are. Holy swans have a pure diet and are pure in their interaction with others.
All your impurity finishes because you are going to the pure world where there is no name or trace of impurity or anything unclean. Because you become holy swans now, you are called "Your Holiness" in the future. Those who don't imbibe the weaknesses of others, even by mistake, have a garland of virtues around their neck. A garland is shown around the neck of the Shaktis and even the deities. This garland is shown as a memorial of those who adopted the rosary of virtues. While imbibing Baba's virtues, you also look at the virtues of everyone else. Do all of you have the garland of virtues around your neck? Only those who wear the garland of virtues can become part of the garland of victory. So, check whether your garland is large or small. Those with the virtues of the Father and others inculcated into them wear a large garland. You also embody virtues by turning the beads of the garland of virtues. Just as Baba embodies all virtues, so must your children remain embodiments of all virtues.
2. Do you constantly consider yourself a lotus, detached while living and doing everything at home, and loving towards the Father? The extent of the love you have is indicated by the extent to which you are detached. To what extent do you love the Father? What is the sign of that love? You would automatically remember the One you love. You don't have to try to remember the One you love. If you experience this, you can understand that you love the Father. The indication of love is automatic remembrance. If you have to labour for remembrance, there isn't much love! Wherever you go, you should be celebrating your meeting of the child with the Father.
When two are combined, they can't be separated from one another. So, too, experience yourself as being combined with Baba. If you constantly see the Father wherever you go, that is known as being a constant yogi. It should not be difficult to remember the Father but challenging to forget him. Just as it was difficult for you to remember him for half the cycle, so it should be challenging to forget him at the confluence age. No matter how much someone tries to make you forget Baba, you should never forget him. It would help if you were as firm as Angad so that Maya could not shake you even in your thoughts. Only such souls are extremely loved by the Father.
3. To experience any obstacle or tension in service means to lack a balance between the self and service. When you don't pay enough attention to yourself, it creates tension or obstacles in one form or another in service. Together with making service plans, you first have to make plans for yourself. Continue to serve while staying within the line of the code of conduct. If you serve, having come out of the line of the code of conduct, you will fail. First, create a committee of those who pay attention to dharna. Create plans for this amongst yourselves, and the service will quickly grow.
4. Do you constantly consider yourself a moth who has surrendered to the Flame? Moths are not able to see anything but the flame. Moths sacrifice themselves and merge with the flame. So, too, forget the consciousness of your body and become equal to the Father. This is known as becoming equal and merging. The whole cycle has gone by. During the confluence age, you are blessed to become whatever you want. Only now is your line of fortune drawn by the Bestower of Fortune. Therefore, you can create whatever fortune you want. 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.”
