Murli Dictionary
Hindi is also shown in Latin characters, using an adapted form of ISO 15919 transliteration.
How to read the transliteration
This site uses transliteration based on ISO 15919, with a few adaptations to make reading easier: h is added after c, ś and ṣ, and i after the vowel r̥. These adaptations bring it closer to the Hunterian system used in India while retaining the distinctive marks of ISO 15919.

A few reading pointers:
- ā, ī, ū: the line above the letter indicates a long vowel.
- ṭ, ḍ, ṇ: the dot below distinguishes retroflex consonants from t, d, n.
- A tilde above a vowel indicates nasalisation.
About this dictionary
The construction of this dictionary is based on common definitions in Hindi and English. Many words or expressions are redefined or even created by Baba. Hence the importance of knowing these definitions specific to this knowledge. These redefinitions and new definitions can be found in the murli. It is easy to forget some of them. This is therefore a work in progress and subject to change at any time.

इच्छा मात्रम् अविद्या ichchhā mātram avidyā (sanskrit)
To become complete ignorant about a desire. Desires are like mirages. If you run behind a mirage to get water, as mirage is an illusive appearance of water, you can never get the water. Similar is the case with desires. There is no end to the desires.Why to run behind the mirages like desires and why to get disappointment of not obtaining them! So, Baba tells a very beautiful technique of stabilising the mind in such a stage where one becomes complete ignorant about desires. When the mind is reached to such a high stage, then automatically all the desires will get fulfilled. That means complete contentment will be achieved.
