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.
