Revise Course Murli 05/04/1981

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 basis of decisive action (karma) is your dharma (religion).

Today, BapDada is seeing his world transformer and world benefactor children. Since the start of your Brahmin life, you have been thinking of this excellent task. This is the central karma of Brahmin life. A human being has taught two unique things in life: religion (dharma) and action (karma). This means to stabilise in your religion and then to perform action. If you do not follow your religion while performing actions, you won’t be successful in your life. Dharma (religion) means to have a special dharma (inculcation). With the inculcation of knowing “Who am I?”, your intellect understands clearly what you should be doing.

Your dharma, your dharna, can be accurate or inaccurate. Performing inaccurate actions is also inaccurate, dharna. To have the belief that “I am a human being, and my religion is the religion of human beings” is called having body consciousness. It was based on this religion that you have been performing wrong actions. Similarly, the accurate dharna in Brahmin life is “I am an elevated soul”. I, this soul, embody peace, happiness and bliss. It is based on this awareness that your actions have changed. Your actions became ordinary from elevated because of the lack of your religion, which is your dharna of “I am an elevated soul, an embodiment of elevated virtues”.

So what is your foundation? This is also why the word “Dharmatma” (religious and righteous soul) is used. All of you have become dharmatmas, have you not? Souls who become dharmatmas automatically stop performing wasteful or ordinary actions. First of all, check whether you are constantly stable in your religion. If you are stable, then your actions will automatically be decisive. The first lesson is “Who am I?” All of this knowledge is included in the one question of “Who am I?” If you were to form a list of answers to the question “Who am I?” it would be a very long list. If you were to remember the titles you have now, you would have to remember so many.

Your titles are primarily based on your actions. You have become masters in everything, and so these are your titles. No one else in the whole cycle would have such a long list of titles as you have. Even the deities do not have so many titles. If you were to begin to write a list of your titles, it would become a small book. The titles of the confluence age are the degrees you attain. No matter how great the degree people outside receive, that is nothing compared to your degree. Do you have this much intoxication? Ultimately, the question would still be, “Who am I?” Every day, become aware of your fresh title.

Every day, become an embodiment of that title. Become a dharmatma and then perform actions. While performing actions, do not stop observing your religion. The speciality of the confluence age is making your karma match your dharma.

Just as the Father connected the broken relationship of souls and the Supreme Soul, in the same way, when you dharmatmas connect your dharma with your karma, you will be revealed. Today, BapDada was watching you children play your games to see which of you are moving along while matching your karma with your dharma. He saw which children were holding on and letting go of the other.

When karma and yoga are combined, it becomes karma yoga. If you let go of one, it becomes like a swing with only one rope. A swing has to have two equal ropes. If one rope is broken or unequal, what use would that swing be? In the same way, when your dharma and karma are combined, you will constantly be able to swing in the swing of supersensuous happiness. If you shake while sitting on a swing of attainment, you will not experience that swing of attainment. Because you don’t know how to check yourself while moving along, instead of swinging, you cry loudly, “What can I do? How can I do this?”

Just as you ask people without knowledge whether they know the answer to the puzzle “Who am I?” in the same way, you should ask yourself, “Who am I?” Do you know the answer to this question very well? There are three stages in this answer. First is to know yourself. The second is to accept yourself. The third is to move along while accepting that and to become an embodiment of that. So, what stage have you reached? All of you have passed the first stage of knowing. You have also passed the second stage of accepting. The third stage is to accept and to move along accordingly.

It means to become an embodiment of that. To what degree do you think you have passed in this? If you have become the form of that, is it possible for you to forget your form? Although it is wrong to consider yourself to be a body, you are unable to forget that even though you want to because you have become that body. Can you forget it? Similarly, please keep all your titles before you and see whether you have become an embodiment of them. Baba reminds you every day of your title of “A spinner of the discussion of self realisation”. Therefore, check whether your form of the confluence age is that of a spinner of the discus of self realisation. Do you know this?

Have you accepted this? Or have you become the embodiment of this? Do you constantly spin the discus of self realisation, or do you look at others and forget to look at yourself? Even to look at your own body is like looking at others. You are a soul; your body is external. Your body is matter; it is external. To be matter-conscious is to be influenced by matter. This means you spin the discussion of looking at others. Since even looking at your own body is the same as looking at others, how can looking at the bodies of others be called spinning the discus of self realisation or checking oneself?

Wasteful thoughts and old sanskars are also connected to body consciousness. The sanskars of soul consciousness, the sanskars of your souls, are the sanskars of the Father. Do you know the sanskars of the Father? He is constantly the World Benefactor. He uplifts souls. He is merciful. He is the Bestower of Blessings, etc. Have you made these sanskars naturally your own? To make these sanskars yours, you would automatically make your thoughts, words and actions according to those sanskars. Sanskars are such that they make you, the soul, function accordingly.

Consider your sanskars the key that automatically makes you continue moving along. When you wind up a toy doll with its key, it dances. If you wind the key of a toy that is supposed to fall, it will keep falling. In the same way, your sanskars are your key to life. Therefore, have you made the Father’s sanskars your original sanskars? When you say, “My nature is like this'', your nature should become like that of the Father, a constant bestower of blessings, one who constantly uplifts others and is merciful. Would you then have to labour? When you put “Who am I?” into practice and observe your religion in your actions, you can then say that you have become an embodiment of that.

Otherwise, you will only be included in the list of those who know and accept. Constantly remain aware of your religion. No matter what happens, whether through people, nature or situations, you must constantly remain stable in your religion. The slogan you have is: “No matter what happens, even if I have to die, I will not relinquish my religion”. Constantly remain aware of this slogan and your promise. Both old and new children of the previous cycle have now come here. You are the oldest of all and also the new ones. New children mean those who are the youngest of all, those who are loved by all.

Everyone loves new leaves. So, even though you may be new, you have claimed the number one right. Constantly continue to make an effort in this way. The first right you have claimed is that of purity. Based on purity, you claim all rights, including those of peace and happiness. Constantly remain number one in claiming your first right of purity, and you will also become number one in your attainment. By not allowing your foundation of purity to weaken, this is how you, who have come last, can go fast. BapDada is pleased to see you children who have arrived here to reclaim your rights from him again.

Therefore, race as much as you want! The “too late” board has not yet been put up! All the seats are still empty. They are not yet fixed. You can claim whatever number you want. Continue to move along with this much attention and claim all rights. Imbibe all specialities and continue to become worthy. To those who are equal to the Father in constantly observing their elevated religion while performing their elevated actions; to those who are constantly dharmatmas; to those who are embodiments of spinning the discus of self­realisation; to those who are embodiments of all attainments; to such elevated souls, BapDada’s love, remembrance and namaste.

BapDada meeting a group of kumaris who are to become teachers: This group is of those who are going to become world benefactors. This is the aim you have kept. You have the determined thought, do you not, of benefiting yourself and then the world? BapDada is pleased to see each of you elevated souls. Each of you, kumaris, is becoming an instrument to benefit many souls. Generally, it is said that a kumari is more elevated than one hundred Brahmins. However, one hundred is limited. All of you are unlimited world benefactors. You are unlimited, are you not? You don’t have any limited thoughts, do you?

So, are all of you ahead of one another in this race, or are all of you numbers? What do you think? Each of you would have your speciality, but here, have you become full of all specialities? When you have imbibed all specialities, you can be called complete. So, what aim are you keeping? It is a small matter, not a big thing, because when you have a determined thought, you automatically fulfil it. If you have a thought without determination, there is a difference. When you say that you are thinking about doing something, that you should do it, that is not called a “determined thought”.

A determined thought means that you must do it and must be done. The word “but” is removed. Then, it is not that you should become but must become. If you maintain your aim, you will become number one. Do you experience this life to be easy? You don’t find it difficult, do you? The atmosphere of your college doesn’t influence you. Are you able to influence the atmosphere with your impact? Constantly remain free from obstacles. To examine yourself means to be free from obstacles. You have been told that the Father’s sanskars should be your sanskars. Then, it would be as though you are doing everything in namesake and that the Father is Karavanhar (the One who works through others.) The praise of Karankaravanhar is your practical experience of this time.

You have become good examples. Constantly remain worthy and continue to prove that worthiness. Only those who give such evidence are said to be worthy. You don’t have conflict amongst yourselves, do you? Because you are knowledgeable, you can know one another’s sanskars and are therefore just concerned about transforming your sanskars. You don’t think that someone else is always like that. Instead, you think about how you can help that one transform. You are merciful towards them. Your vision is not of dislike, but your vision is of mercy because you have become knowledgeable.

You have an easy life and elevated attainment. Can you receive such fortune anywhere else? You are excellent and serviceable hands. It will be perfect when such serviceable hands as you continue to emerge. When your children have courage, the Father helps. Shaktis are always victorious. It is impossible for the Shaktis not to experience victory.

Meeting with the second group: This year, each child has to pay special attention to claiming all three certificates (to be liked by the self, to be liked by the people, and to be liked by the Father). By checking yourself in Baba’s room, you can judge yourself to see whether you have gained the certificate of being liked by yourself. At that time, the Father becomes the mirror. Whatever you look at in this mirror is very clearly reflected. At the time you look, if your mind gives you the certificate that you are OK, that is fine. However, if you reflect that you are not all right, you must transform yourself.

If, for instance, someone is given a signal, but that soul doesn’t understand that they are wrong, if the majority give a signal for you to pay attention to something, you should not use the dictates of your mind. You have the power of truth, and truth is said to be greatness. Only those who bow down are great. If you have to bow down to benefit someone, then that is not bowing down but greatness. Those who are great will bow down to serve others. Therefore, pay special attention. You are careless in this. When you say that you are OK, that’s OK. However, those who are fine should also be able to mould themselves.

If others have wasted thoughts due to your behaviour, what loss would you experience if you mould yourself? At least you would receive everyone’s blessings. These blessings are also of benefit. Do not go into the expansion of “Why?” or “What?” Put a full­stop to all questions such as “Why is this like this?” or “How will this happen?” etc. Now, become like a lighthouse and spread this speciality in all directions. This is called someone suggesting something and someone else accepting that suggestion. Then, you become instruments to give happiness to many. Don’t think that you will lower yourself by doing this, no! Just think that you are transforming yourself because you have made a mistake.

Even at work, you have to make some physical effort. Therefore, what does it matter if you gradually transform yourself to become a great, elevated soul? You have to become Arjuna in this. Through this, you will be able to create an atmosphere. Then, it will spread from one to two and two to three. To accept making a mistake is not a big thing. However, when you have not made a mistake, but to alleviate everyone, you admit that you have made a mistake, that is a great thing. If others try to clarify the situation and say that you did something, if you are brought down, it does not matter whether others know you are right.

At least you have claimed a number ahead in the Father’s list. That is not called suppressing yourself. Some Brahmins speak this language when they say, “How many times do I have to give in? How many times do I have to die? How much more do I have to tolerate? If you must be subservient here, many others will massage your feet there. This is not suppressing yourself but becoming worthy of being worshipped by many others. This is how great you have to become! 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.”
