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.
| ISO 15919 | On this site |
|---|---|
| c | ch |
| ś | śh |
| ṣ | ṣh |
| r̥ | r̥i |
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.

Hindi words and expressions
Earlier definition
Treasurer of Brahma Kumaris since its inception Dadi (Elder sister) Ishu was one of the original gems of the Brahma Kumaris. Dadi joined the organisation at a very young age. Dadi Ishu’s honesty, faithfulness, simplicity and integrity was spotted by Brahma Baba due to which Dadi was given the responsibility of handling the correspondence and more importantly the finances of the institution.
Dadi Ishu was the right-hand of Dadi Prakashmani, the then Chief Administrator of the Brahma Kumaris and travelled with her throughout India and abroad spreading the Godly message.
Dadi Ishu served as the Joint-Chief and Treasurer of the organisation during her life-time.
Dadi Ishu was a silent effort maker both in spiritual and literal sense of the word and was a self effacing serviceable instrument of the Almighty. Dadi Ishu despite being reserved was very jolly at heart and had a childish innocence.
Dadi Ishu attained her angelic stage on 06th May, 2021 and continues to inspire the new generation.
