Daily Murli for Saturday 17 August 2024

⁰ 17/08/24 Morning Murli Om Shanti BapDada Madhuban

¹Essence: Sweet children, do not have love for perishable bodies, but have love for the imperishable Father and you will become liberated from crying.

²Question: What is unrighteous love and what are its consequences?

³Answer: To have attachment to perishable bodies is to have unrighteous love.

⁴Those who have attachment to perishable things cry.

⁵There is crying because of body consciousness.

⁶In the golden age, all are soul conscious and there is therefore no question of crying.

⁷Those who cry end up losing everything.

⁸The imperishable children of the imperishable Father now receive those teachings: Become soul conscious and you will be liberated from crying.

⁹Om shanti.

¹⁰Only you children know that souls are imperishable and that the Father is also imperishable. ¹¹So, whom should you love?

¹²Imperishable souls.

¹³It is only imperishable ones that should be loved. ¹⁴One should not love perishable bodies.

¹⁵The whole world is perishable. ¹⁶Everything is perishable. ¹⁷This body is also perishable, whereas the soul is imperishable.

¹⁸Love for a soul is imperishable; a soul never dies. ¹⁹This is said to be righteous.

²⁰The Father says: You have become unrighteous.

²¹In fact, imperishable ones should have love for the imperishable One.

²²You have love for perishable bodies and this is why you end up crying; you don't have love for imperishable souls.

²³Because of having love for the perishable, you have to cry.

²⁴You now consider yourselves to be imperishable souls, and so there is no question of crying, because you are soul conscious.

²⁵So, the Father is now making you children soul conscious.

²⁶By being body conscious, you end up crying; you cry over perishable bodies.

²⁷You understand that souls never die.

²⁸The Father says: Consider yourselves to be souls.

²⁹So, you are imperishable souls, imperishable children of the imperishable Father. ³⁰You don't need to cry.

³¹A soul sheds a body and goes and plays another part.

³²This is a play.

³³Why do you have attachment to a body?

³⁴Break your intellect's yoga away from your body and all its relationships and consider yourself to be an imperishable soul.

³⁵Souls never die.

³⁶It is also remembered: Those who cry lose out.

³⁷By becoming soul conscious, you will become worthy.

³⁸So, the Father comes and makes you soul conscious from body conscious.

³⁹He says: How is it that you have forgotten everything?

⁴⁰You have had to cry for birth after birth.

⁴¹You are now being given teachings to become soul conscious once again.

⁴²Then, you will never cry.

⁴³This is a world of tears, whereas that is a world of laughter.

⁴⁴This is a world of sorrow, whereas that is a world of happiness.

⁴⁵The Father gives you teachings in a very nice way.

⁴⁶The imperishable children of the imperishable Father are receiving teachings.

⁴⁷Those people are body conscious and they give teachings while only looking at bodies.

⁴⁸People cry when they remember a body.

⁴⁹They even see that that body has been destroyed, and so what would be the benefit of remembering it?

⁵⁰Would you remember ashes?

⁵¹The imperishable thing (soul) went and took another body.

⁵²You children know that those who perform good actions also receive good bodies.

⁵³Some receive badly diseased bodies. ⁵⁴That too is according to their karma.

⁵⁵It isn't that if they have performed good actions, they go up above; no.

⁵⁶No one can go up above.

⁵⁷Those who have performed good actions would be called good and they would receive a good birth, but they still have to come down.

⁵⁸You know how we ascend.

⁵⁹Although someone might become a mahatma (great soul) by performing good actions, his degrees would still continue to decrease.

⁶⁰The Father says: Even so, they remember God and perform good actions, and so I give them temporary happiness.

⁶¹Nevertheless, they still have to come down the ladder.

⁶²Perhaps they have a good name, but people here can't even distinguish between good and bad actions.

⁶³Those who have occult powers are given so much regard.

⁶⁴People go crazy chasing after them.

⁶⁵All of that is ignorance.

⁶⁶For instance, someone makes donations and performs charity indirectly or builds a dharamshala or a hospital, so he would surely receive the return of that in his next birth.

⁶⁷They also remember the Father and, even though they insult others, they still take the name of God.

⁶⁸However, because of being ignorant, they don't know anything.

⁶⁹They remember God and worship Rudra. ⁷⁰They consider Rudra to be God.

⁷¹They create a sacrificial fire to Rudra.

⁷²They worship Shiva or Rudra.

⁷³The Father says: They worship Me, but look at what they create and what they all do out of senselessness!

⁷⁴There are as many gurus for human beings as there are human beings.

⁷⁵When new leaves and branches emerge on a tree, they look so beautiful.

⁷⁶Because of being satoguni, they are praised.

⁷⁷The Father says: This is a world of those who have love for perishable things.

⁷⁸Some have so much love that it is as though they go crazy out of attachment.

⁷⁹Even important businessmen go crazy out of attachment.

⁸⁰Because women don't have this knowledge, when they become widows, they cry so much in remembrance of those perishable bodies.

⁸¹You now consider yourselves to be souls and you look at others as souls, and so there isn't the slightest sorrow.

⁸²A study is said to be a source of income.

⁸³There is also an aim and objective in studying.

⁸⁴However, that is for one birth.

⁸⁵They receive a salary from the Government.

⁸⁶They study and then do business. ⁸⁷Only then do they receive money.

⁸⁸Here, this is something new.

⁸⁹How do you fill your aprons with the imperishable jewels of this knowledge?

⁹⁰The soul understands that Baba is giving us the imperishable treasure of this knowledge.

⁹¹God is teaching you, and so He would surely make you into gods and goddesses.

⁹²However, it is in fact wrong to consider Lakshmi and Narayan to be a god and goddess.
