⚙️ ️Grammar

1. अपने को — “oneself”

The expression अपने को (apne ko) refers back to the person performing the action:

अपने को आत्मा समझना
apne ko ātmā samajhnā
“to consider oneself to be a soul”

The particle को marks अपने को as the object of समझना: the person who is regarded as something.

2. समझकर — conjunctive participle

समझकर is formed from:

It links two actions performed by the same person:

  1. considering oneself to be a soul;
  2. remembering the Father.

Here, it does not merely mean “after understanding.” It expresses the state or basis from which the second action is performed:

“Remember the Father while considering yourself to be a soul.”

3. याद करना है — instruction or necessity

The structure:

infinitive in -ना + है

often expresses an instruction, obligation, or something that must be done:

The subject is not explicitly stated, but from the context it means: you children have to…

4. The function of बस

At the end of the sentence, बस emphasizes simplicity and exclusiveness:

“That is all that has to be done.”

It also implies that no bodily relationships, worries, or other memories should interfere.

🌟 Meaning in the BK context

This sentence summarizes the practice of soul-consciousness:

  1. Do not identify yourself with the old, perishable body.
  2. Recognize yourself as a soul, distinct from the body.
  3. In that awareness, remember the Father.

अपने को आत्मा समझना does not mean merely thinking intellectually, “I am a soul.” It means maintaining the inner awareness of being a soul so that remembrance of the Father becomes natural and stable.

The final word बस stresses that this is the essential practice:

“I am not the body; I am a soul, and I remember the Father.”
