⚙️ ️Grammar
1. तो — to
Here, तो connects the sentence with what has been said previously. Depending on the context, it may be translated as:
- so;
- then;
- therefore.
In the spoken style of the Murli, it often simply allows the explanation to continue naturally.
2. बाप कहते हैं — bāp kahte haiṃ
Literally:
“The Father says.”
Although बाप — bāp is singular, the verb is in the respectful plural form:
- कहता है — kahtā hai: he says, ordinary singular form;
- कहते हैं — kahte haiṃ: he says, respectful form.
The plural form expresses respect for the Father.
3. चलते फिरते — calte-phirte
These words come from:
- चलना — calnā: to walk, to go;
- फिरना — phirnā: to move around, to go about.
Together, चलते-फिरते is a common idiomatic expression meaning:
- while walking and moving around;
- while going about one’s activities;
- in the course of daily life;
- while carrying out ordinary tasks.
It therefore does not refer only to physical walking. It includes everything one does throughout the day.
4. बाप को याद करना — bāp ko yād karnā
The usual Hindi construction is:
किसी को याद करना — kisī ko yād karnā
to remember someone / to think of someone
Here:
- बाप को — bāp ko: the Father, marked by को — ko;
- याद करो — yād karo: remember.
The postposition को — ko marks the person who is remembered.
5. याद करो — yād karo
करो — karo is the imperative form of करना — karnā, used with तुम — tum:
- याद करो — yād karo: remember;
- याद कीजिए — yād kījie: please remember, more formal;
- याद कर — yād kar: remember, very familiar singular form.
In the Murli, करो — karo is an affectionate instruction addressed collectively to the children.
🌟 Meaning in the BK Context
This sentence teaches that remembrance of the Father should not be limited to a fixed period of meditation. It should accompany the activities of everyday life:
- walking;
- working;
- speaking;
- cooking;
- fulfilling responsibilities;
- living with one’s family and within society.
Thus, चलते फिरते — calte-phirte means to remain in remembrance while continuing to perform one’s actions.
It does not necessarily mean constantly repeating Baba’s name in the mind. Rather, it means maintaining the inner awareness:
“I am a soul, a child of the Father, and I am performing this action in His remembrance.”
The sentence therefore brings together two aspects:
कर्म — karma: performing actions;
याद — yād: maintaining an inner connection with the Father.
The teaching is not to separate meditation from daily life. Actions continue, but the intellect remains connected with the Father.
