Daily Murli for Thursday 17 August 2023

⁰ 17/08/23 Morning Murli Om Shanti BapDada Madhuban

¹Essence: Sweet children, you do not have to say anything with your mouth; just constantly remember the one Father with a true heart. ²The Lord is pleased with those who have honest hearts.

³Question: Which manners are the best? ⁴Which divine manners do you have to imbibe?

⁵Answer: The best manners are to remain constantly cheerful. ⁶Deities remain constantly cheerful; they never laugh loudly. ⁷To laugh loudly is also a vice. ⁸You children should remain in the incognito happiness of remembrance.

⁹The sanskar of familiarity also causes a great deal of damage.

¹⁰In order to be successful in doing service, you have to have an attitude that is free from attraction.

¹¹There should not be the slightest odour of being trapped by anyone’s name or form.

¹²You have to have a very clean intellect.

¹³Your face remains cheerful when you have imbibed these things and you do service and make others similar to yourself.

¹⁴Song: Neither will He be separated from us, nor will we experience sorrow.

¹⁵Om shanti.

¹⁶You children understand, numberwise, according to your efforts. ¹⁷It is said that the Lord is pleased with those who have honest hearts.

¹⁸The heart too is within the soul, is not?

¹⁹Therefore, remember the true Lord and you will receive happiness.

²⁰Remembrance means to remember the Father internally.

²¹Chant the name of the Lord.

²²To chant does not mean that you have to continue to say something; no.

²³Just continue to have remembrance and you will receive a great deal of happiness.

²⁴You also have to make others similar to yourselves.

²⁵It is very easy to explain to others. ²⁶Just as a truly faithful wife does not love anyone except her husband, in the same way, you souls have to remember the unlimited Father from beyond with honest hearts.

²⁷It is just as a lover and beloved love each other.

²⁸They are attracted to each other’s name and form; it is not a question of vice.

²⁹The lover remembers the beloved and the beloved remembers the lover, that’s all!

³⁰Their intellects are not drawn anywhere else.

³¹Even though they are engaged in their business etc., their hearts are connected to each other.

³²That is pure remembrance.

³³Their bodies and intellects do not become impure.

³⁴Such souls are also praised, but there are very few of them.

³⁵Even in this knowledge, there are very few such true lovers.

³⁶Maya is such that she gets hold of you by the nose.

³⁷The example of Angad has been given.

³⁸Ravan said: See if he can be shaken or not.

³⁹Maya tries to make the powerful maharathis fall.

⁴⁰Just as a mouse blows on you and then bites you in such a way that you don’t even feel it, in the same way, Maya is so powerful that if anyone behaves badly and unlawfully, she locks that one’s intellect in an incognito way.

⁴¹You need a deep intellect to understand these things.

⁴²You have to practise remembering Baba a great deal.

⁴³There has to be full love for the Father.

⁴⁴You have to do service without becoming attracted.

⁴⁵No matter how good some child may be, you mustn’t become trapped in his name or form. ⁴⁶It would cause a great deal of damage.

⁴⁷The Father says: Consider yourselves to be bodiless souls and remember Me.

⁴⁸Keep yourselves very clean and pure.

⁴⁹You belong to Shiv Baba and He is making you clean and pure.

⁵⁰You have to remove the vices from within you.

⁵¹Your very name is Shiv Shaktis; you receive power from the Almighty Authority. ⁵²Therefore, you have to have very good yoga with Him.

⁵³The Father says: To have constant remembrance is not like going to your aunty’s home!

⁵⁴So much effort is made to stay in remembrance at the time of eating, yet He is still forgotten.

⁵⁵While eating, a great deal of effort is made to remember the Father the whole time. ⁵⁶As He is our Beloved, why should we not eat in remembrance of Him? ⁵⁷He would then stay with us.

⁵⁸However, remembrance is still forgotten again and again.

⁵⁹Even on the path of devotion, the intellect continues to wander in different directions.

⁶⁰These things are aspects of this knowledge.

⁶¹Some children are also not able to understand these aspects properly and are still crawling on the floor.

⁶²If your yoga were to be constant, it would be understood that your karmateet stage is coming close.

⁶³However, remembrance doesn’t remain, and so a great battle takes place within.

⁶⁴Baba sees that there are many of you whose intellects wander. ⁶⁵It takes effort for them to become bodiless.

⁶⁶There are very few who speak the truth; they are too ashamed to speak the truth.

⁶⁷Maya is very powerful.

⁶⁸She doesn’t take long to scalp you.

⁶⁹You shouldn’t say: “We are His children anyway.”

⁷⁰You have also been shown methods.

⁷¹Firstly you have to reach your karmateet stage and then a status is received, numberwise.

⁷²Baba knows that Maya harasses the children a great deal. ⁷³She doesn’t allow remembrance to remain.

⁷⁴It has been observed from the stages of many that they become trapped in someone’s name and form.

⁷⁵You have to practise considering yourselves to be bodiless, because for a very long time you have not considered yourselves to be bodiless.

⁷⁶In the golden age, you will have the full knowledge that you are souls and that you have to shed your old costumes and take new ones.

⁷⁷You also receive a vision at that time.

⁷⁸Whether you have a vision (in a practical way) or invisibly (just through feelings), you will understand that the lifespan of that body is about to end. ⁷⁹When someone is about to die, he says: I feel that I am about to die; I am unable to live any longer.

⁸⁰There, when your body has become old, you will understand that you have to shed it.

⁸¹They shed their bodies happily when it is their time.

⁸²They have full knowledge of souls but they don’t have the slightest knowledge of the Father because that is not in the drama.

⁸³Why should you remember the Father there?

⁸⁴There would be no need.

⁸⁵Here, human beings in sorrow remember Him whereas you have to consider yourselves to be souls and have yoga with the Father.

⁸⁶These bodies are old.

⁸⁷You should have total dislike for them.

⁸⁸No matter how beautiful someone’s body may be, everyone is ugly because, according to the law, every soul has become ugly.

⁸⁹This is something for your intellects to understand.

⁹⁰Therefore, the Father explains: Let your intellects’ yoga be connected to the One.

⁹¹Just as people have love marriages, so this is also a love marriage for you souls.

⁹²There will then be no love for those bodies.

⁹³If there isn't love for your own body, why should there be love for the bodies of others?

⁹⁴Everything in the world functions on the basis of beauty.

⁹⁵Some couples get engaged without seeing each other; then, when they do see each other, they don't like each other and there is quarrelling and fighting: “What would I do with money?

⁹⁶I want someone beautiful!” ⁹⁷You understand that you are souls. ⁹⁸You should have no attachment to your old bodies.

⁹⁹All of those relationships are vicious. ¹⁰⁰Your things are different from those of the people of the world outside.

¹⁰¹You ugly souls have now become engaged to the beautiful Traveller.

¹⁰²You understand that every soul in this world has become totally ugly.

¹⁰³Make your souls beautiful by forging a connection with the Beautiful One.

¹⁰⁴The one Traveller makes you multi-million times beautiful.

¹⁰⁵Very good yoga is needed in order for you ugly souls to be made beautiful.

¹⁰⁶If you remain ugly, you will firstly have to experience punishment and secondly, your status will be destroyed.

¹⁰⁷Here, you must not get caught by the name or form of anyone.

¹⁰⁸A great deal of disservice takes place when that happens. ¹⁰⁹This is why Baba says: Remain cautious.

¹¹⁰You get caught in the web of Maya and yet you don’t understand.

¹¹¹That destiny will not leave you. ¹¹²You destroy your own status. ¹¹³The Father says: With the power of yoga, you have to make your souls pure.

¹¹⁴This is a furnace (bhatthi).

¹¹⁵Have yoga with the Father.

¹¹⁶However, if your intellects wander elsewhere your remembrance becomes adulterated.

¹¹⁷Then, neither will you be able to do service nor will you claim a high status.

¹¹⁸Alloy can only be removed with the fire of yoga.

¹¹⁹If you have yoga, this knowledge will also remain in your intellects.

¹²⁰Baba is Rup (the Embodiment of Yoga) and also Basant (the One who showers knowledge).

¹²¹The more you children become rup (the embodiment of yoga), the more you will be able to imbibe knowledge.

¹²²Firstly, souls have to be made pure.

¹²³You continue to speak of yoga, but, even among yourselves, there are many who don’t understand the meaning of yoga.

¹²⁴You cannot purify yourselves or Bharat without having yoga.

¹²⁵Even though you do service and open centres, Maya catches hold of you by your nose.

¹²⁶Some become arrogant and say that they have opened this many centres; they become body conscious.

¹²⁷The Father explains: Consider yourselves to be souls and have yoga with the Father.

¹²⁸No sinful action should take place.

¹²⁹If you forget Baba and then become trapped in someone’s name or form, a great deal of damage is caused.

¹³⁰The destination is very high.

¹³¹It is not a small thing to become a master of the world!

¹³²The Father is praised a great deal.

¹³³Many temples are built in His name.

¹³⁴You know who built the Somnath Temple and when he built it.

¹³⁵Temples too are built, numberwise.

¹³⁶After the Somnath Temple was built, the Lakshmi and Narayan Temple was built, and then the Jagadamba Temple.

¹³⁷Human beings don’t know who created the temple to Somnath.

¹³⁸God is the Incorporeal.

¹³⁹Although worshippers of the Incorporeal worship incorporeal Shiva, they don’t understand anything.

¹⁴⁰You children are also numberwise.

¹⁴¹Day and night, you should be concerned about doing service.

¹⁴²Only when you stop being body conscious and become soul conscious will you have this concern.

¹⁴³Have full yoga with the Father.

¹⁴⁴To have total regard for Him is not like going to your aunty’s home!

¹⁴⁵The evil spirit of Maya breaks your yoga.

¹⁴⁶Only the Father knows these things.

¹⁴⁷There are some who are so sensitive that if they are told anything, they become upset and quickly become traitors.

¹⁴⁸They then destroy their own fortunes.

¹⁴⁹When they come to Baba, they become amazed, they belong to Him and then run away and begin to do disservice.

¹⁵⁰It is also mentioned in the Bhagawad that whilst drinking nectar, some became traitors and caused harm.

¹⁵¹The Father has great concern because so-and-so is weak and can become a traitor at any time and cause harm.

¹⁵²It has been seen how some become traitors and create a lot of harm and then innocent ones are beaten a great deal.

¹⁵³Are there assaults in other spiritual gatherings?

¹⁵⁴Here, the first aspect is of renouncing poison.

¹⁵⁵Some don’t renounce it at all.

¹⁵⁶People say that so-and-so has left for the heavenly abode, but no one knows where heaven is.

¹⁵⁷It is as though they just speak without knowing the meaning of what they say.

¹⁵⁸You have now received so much understanding.

¹⁵⁹The Father knows who the good flowers are.

¹⁶⁰There are some who don’t have any odour of being trapped in anyone’s name or form.

¹⁶¹They have no other interest apart from this knowledge.

¹⁶²You also have to have accurate yoga.

¹⁶³Although some are already ugly, they become even more ugly.

¹⁶⁴Within this army, there is an army of elephants, lions and lionesses and also stallions and mares. ¹⁶⁵There is also a flock of sheep; there are all types.

¹⁶⁶It is understood from the activity of some that they are goats; they don’t understand anything; nothing sits in their intellects.

¹⁶⁷Their intellects are like the intellect of a buffalo.

¹⁶⁸The Father explains in such an easy way that you are souls.

¹⁶⁹Are you not able to remember the unlimited Father?

¹⁷⁰O souls, remove your intellects’ yoga from everywhere else and remember Me.

¹⁷¹Are you not able to remember Me?

¹⁷²You remember your friends and relatives etc., so what’s so difficult about remembering Me?

¹⁷³Some say: “Baba, Maya breaks my intellect’s yoga”.

¹⁷⁴Then, you will lose your inheritance!

¹⁷⁵If your intellects’ yoga is forged completely, you will become the masters of the world.

¹⁷⁶How can the Father ever be forgotten?

¹⁷⁷It is only when you become body conscious that you forget Him.
