Revise Course Murli 23/01/1980

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.

The Importance of Purity.

BapDada is happy to see all his great souls, his righteous (dharmatmas) souls, his charitable and purest souls. The children of the Supreme Soul are the supremely pure children. Importance is given to purity. People everywhere believe in purity. Because of their purity, souls become supremely worthy of being worshipped and remembered. Purity is their elevated religion, their dharna. The most significant donation of charity in this Godly service is the donation of purity. To enable someone to become pure is to make him into a charitable soul because, at that time, you are stopping that soul from the very great sin of committing suicide of the soul.

To commit suicide of the soul is impurity, whereas to donate life is purity. To make someone pure means to make him into a charitable soul. The slogan you use for the essence of this knowledge of the Gita and this Godly knowledge also indicates the importance of purity. The slogan, “Be holy, be yogi”, is the basis of becoming a great soul. The number (position) you are awarded for your effort in Brahmin life is also based on your purity. The memorials of those on the path of devotion are also based on their purity. No devotees without that purity can touch your idol, your non living memorial.

Importance is also given to purity for this whole day they celebrate in memory of a particular deity. Devotees observe that discipline for a temporary period. When people celebrate the nine nights of the goddesses (Navratri), the birth of Krishna (Janmashtami), the festival of lights (Deepawali) and other festivals, they follow the discipline of observing purity, even if for only a temporary period. They observe the discipline of purity of the body and the soul. They observe both types of cleanliness. Even when they turn the rosary beads, which is your memorial, they do that with the accurate discipline of purity. Your souls become the embodiments of success, so because your souls become this, you are worshipped accurately in the right way.

Do you know how vital purity is? Because purity is the principal paper, it is checked first. You must have checked your purity paper and made progress according to the programme. Within the overall result, most of you were OK in karma (performing action). The result of speech was 25% less than in the subject of action. The result of thoughts was 50% less than the subject of action. There was a slight difference between thoughts and dreams. Within all the results, from the moment you took birth to now, some were constantly going up and down in their efforts.

There would be a stain, and then they would erase it. Sometimes, they would think about something and then try to stop that thought. Sometimes, there would be a stain in their words or actions, which they would then try to remove. Many would do something wrong and then make an effort to stop that. However, there were also such intense effort makers who, from the beginning, have erased the stain of their sanskars so profoundly from the beginning that even now, their paper is visible as completely clean.

They have erased it so much that none arises, even in their dreams. Baba saw these very pure souls who passed with honour. What is their speciality? Since they took Brahmin's birth, they haven’t needed to make an effort for purity but have had the special aim of having this original and eternal sanskar of a Brahmin soul. Because they have such natural sanskars, impurity has never emerged in their dreams or thoughts. They have conducted themselves so naturally with sanskars of purity that they have even gone beyond the stage where they first have an impure thought and then have to make an effort to remove it and become victorious.

They haven’t needed to make an effort in this subject. Baba saw souls with such sanskars as supremely worthy of worship. However, these souls are in the minority. These souls are knowledgeable. They show others the way to become pure. They listen to others telling them of their weaknesses and give them Baba’s shrimat. While they have been constantly listening to everything and advising about everything in return, they have remained clean. In the subject of purity, they have always remained embodiments of success. This is why such supremely worthy souls are also worshipped accurately in the right way.

They are worshipped as the special eight deities and the devotees' special deities. The practical form of the eight Shaktis is in the form of the special eight deities. So, did you hear the result of the paper? Now, pay double attention to transforming the thoughts in your mind. Do not think having these types of thoughts is natural until you become perfect; no! Burn the seed of that thought in the fire of yoga so that it cannot bear fruit for half a kalpa, so that even the first two leaves in the form of words cannot grow, so the trunk, branches and twigs of actions cannot grow.

By burning this seed over a long period, you will stop its fruit from being born for many years. It is not that you can become perfect in this subject at the end, but practising this over a long period will enable you to pass at the end. First, stop thinking that you will become perfect in the end. By becoming this now, you can become this at the end. If you do not do this now, you cannot become this at the end. Therefore, now wake up from this sleep of carelessness! By remaining asleep in this, you will lose everything. Don’t complain later that you thought you would become perfect at the end! Understand the meaning of becoming perfect at the end.

Never think that you will resolve any particular weakness you have at the end. You have to make an effort now to prepare your Brahmin life's ornaments. You have to embellish your ornaments with the maracas and disciplines now. You have to polish these ornaments now. Ultimately, you will have to put a final touch to the ornaments you have already polished; that’s all! You won’t even have time to be able to polish anything then. You will only have time for the elevated service of serving other souls. At that time, you won’t be an effort maker; you will be a master bestower.

At that time, giving will be received. If you have finished constantly receiving, how would you have the time to polish yourself at that time? If you were to remain busy embellishing yourself at that time, you would be unable to play the part of a world benefactor. Therefore, you must imbibe the sanskars of a master creator now. Put an end to your childish sanskars and become a master creator, a bestower of blessings, a greatly enlightened soul and a great donor, and thereby continue to bestow on others powers, knowledge, virtues and all the treasures you have received.

To be a bestower of blessings means to transform with your powerful souls and the influence of the atmosphere and vibrations. To be a greatly enlightened soul means to transform souls with your words and various service methods. To be a great donor means to be spiritually merciful to souls who are completely weak, disheartened or powerless and to give them extra power. However, in some cases, you are even being merciful to Maya. When someone is doing something wrong, and you feel mercy for that soul, you are merciful to Maya. At such a time as that, you have to be lawful.

It is because you have an attachment. However, you feel that you are being merciful. In reality, that is called being merciful to Maya. Do not become merciful in that way. This is why Baba said you must be spiritually merciful. Otherwise, some of you even take advantage of words. To be a great donor means to create hope in a completely hopeless case. To help other souls with your power means to help and be a great donor for your subjects. You cannot be a great donor for heir­ quality souls. Donations are always given to those who are very poor. It is those who have no support that are given support.

So, in the end, you have to be a great donor for your subject and devotee souls. Brahmins are not great donors to one another. Brahmins are cooperative companions. You are brothers and equal effort makers. You have to give each other cooperation and not donation. Do you understand? Now stop thinking that you will do this at some time! Also, stop using the expression “sometime!”. An intense effort maker never says “at some time” but always says “now”. Therefore, now become a constant, intense effort maker. To such constant world benefactor and purest souls, to the supremely worthy of being worshipped souls who remain beyond any impurity in their thoughts and dreams and who, even at this time, are worthy of being respected and praised, to the karma yogi souls who are constantly serving with their thoughts and their form, to such charitable souls, to the great donors who are bestowers of blessings, BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste.

BapDada meeting groups:

1. Are all of you eveready all rounders? To be ready means you start doing something when you receive an order. When you receive an order, you say, “Ha ji”, not that you ask, “What should I do? How should I do this?” If you have thoughts such as “What will happen?”, “How will this happen?” “Will I be able to continue or not?” you cannot be said to be ever ready. The speciality of an intense­maker is of being an eveready all rounder. You must be number one in every method whenever you receive a chance to serve, whether through your thoughts, words or deeds. It should not be that you are number one in serving through words, number two in serving through deeds and number three in serving through thoughts.

You must be able to serve through your thoughts with as much love as you serve through your words. Now, increase your practice of serving through your thoughts. Even householders can give the seven-day course and serve through words. It would help if you made the atmosphere powerful. Make the atmosphere of your place, your town, Bharat, and the world powerful. Check whether you are successful in serving through your thoughts. When you succeed in serving with your thoughts, your stage and the stage of your career will remain obstacle free and continue to ascend. For its stage to ascend doesn’t just mean that its number increases.

The stage of ascent means that its number grows in quality, as does its atmosphere, and that the stage of you and your companions is also ascent. This is known as the stage of ascent. Do you experience this? Is your amrit vela powerful? Obstacles should  not come because you are careless at Amrit Vela. Do you have such an influential amrit vela that you can give light and might to the world? Are you content with your remembrance at Amrit Vela? The main subject is remembrance. When BapDada goes on a tour at Amrit vela, He sees a lack of powerful vibrations. Some of you sit there like lords of discipline.

It would help if you now became embodiments of experience. You force yourself to sit there because of your discipline. Once you experience love, you will sit there again with that profound love when you have experienced something that pulls you towards itself, even against your conscious wish. When serving through words, if you experience happiness, you run to do that even against your conscious wish. Make amrit vela just as potent to increase your experience of serving through your thoughts. Ultimately, you will not have a chance to serve through words.

The certificate you receive will be based on how much you serve through your thoughts because the queue will be so long that you won’t be able to say anything. What do you do in such a vast gathering when you hold a fair? You peacefully give them your good wishes, and drishti is filled with pure feelings. In the end, when your impact has spread, what will happen? At the moment, they come because of the impact of physical light, but at that time, there will be the impact of the light of your souls. At that time, you will have to serve with your mind. You will have to take them beyond your glance.

You will have to change their attitude with your attitude. You will have to make them powerful with your power. Will you give them lectures at that time? So, it is essential to practise serving them through your mind now and become an embodiment of experience. Tell others something based on your own experience. Do you understand? You now have to increase serving through your mind. Now create an obstacle free atmosphere in which no soul would have the courage to create any obstacle. When an obstacle comes, and you must try to remove it, it is also time wasted. Therefore, now make your fort very strong. Co­operate and be loving with one another, and everyone will follow you. Others will follow you in whatever you do.

2. Are all of you those who remain as unshakeable and immovable as Angad? No situation or person in Ravan’s kingdom should be able to shake you, even in your thoughts. No one should be able to move you even as much as your nail. For your thoughts to fluctuate means to shake as much as a fingernail. So, no person or situation should be able to shake you, even in your thoughts. Sometimes, a physical relative or one of your divine family members becomes an instrument to create an obstacle. However, those who remain as unshakeable as Angad could overcome all situations because they are knowledgeable and understand why that obstacle has come in front of them.

Such obstacles do not come to make you fall but to make you strong. Such souls will not be confused. In an examination hall, the dull students become confused, whereas the clever students will be happy because their intellects are aware that by sitting on that paper, they will move forward in their class. They find nothing complicated! The dull students will just constantly be counting the questions. They will ask why they have been given such questions, who prepared them, why they have so many questions, etc. Here, too, something has to become an instrument to test you.

Therefore, you should not question why so and so is doing something or feel that so and so shouldn’t be doing something. Whatever happens is good. Select the best of everything. Swans would select pearls and put aside stones. They can separate milk from water. They take the milk and leave the water. In the same way, when such a situation comes in front of you, consider it to be like water and leave it. Don’t ask, ‘Who mixed this?’, “Why did they do this?”. By doing that, you are wasting time. If the time for taking the test is over and you still ask questions, you will fail.

When you waste your time, it means you fail. If you ask “Why?” or “What?” while taking your last breath, " it means you fail! To have sensitive feelings about anything means to fail. When Maya comes to you as a lion, keep your fire of yoga lit. Where there is a light, nothing as fearsome as a lion will be able to attack you. When the fire of your yoga remains constantly lit, Maya cannot approach you in any form. All obstacles will vanish.

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.”
