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.

Sometimes Baba also says that it is the imperishable sacrificial fire of knowledge created by God, Rudra, in which a horse is sacrificed for attaining the kingdom.
The word “yagya” stands for “sacrificial fire” Yagyas are normally conducted for protection against natural calamities, wars, for rain-making etc.
Ashwamedh yagya (where a horse is sacrificed) is mentioned in ancient scriptures A ritual described there is performed by a king (raja) who strives for becoming a great king, or an emperor (maharaja) Before the yagya is conducted, a horse is set loose to roam around wherever it chooses for a few months or a year If the inhabitants of the lands that the horse crosses let it cross their territory without any obstruction, it means they accept the raja’s rule over them In this way the raja becomes a chakravarti raja (literally - the ruler of the entire globe).
In Baba’s murlis the word “yagya” often stands for this Godly University, or this system of giving the knowledge and providing God’s sustenance, created by Baba at the Confluence age Every Baba’s service place is the yagya. Madhuban is often called Mahayagya (the Great Yagya).
