📅 Murli sentence of 13 August 2026
📜 Hindi
यह है तुम बच्चों की बुद्धि के लिए खुराक।
🔤 Transliteration
Yah hai tum bacchoṃ kī buddhi ke lie khurāk.
💬 Translation
This is nourishment for your intellect, children.
More literally:
This is food for the intellect of you children.
Here, खुराक (khurāk) is used metaphorically: just as the body needs food, the बुद्धि (buddhi), the intellect, needs spiritual nourishment in order to become strong and transformed.
📚 Vocabulary
- यह (yah) — this
- है (hai) — is
- तुम (tum) — you
- बच्चों (baccoṃ) — children; oblique plural of बच्चे
- की (kī) — of; feminine genitive marker
- बुद्धि (buddhi) — intellect, understanding, faculty of discernment
- के लिए (ke lie) — for, intended for
- खुराक (khurāk) — food, nourishment, ration; figuratively, something that nourishes or strengthens
⚙️ ️Grammar
1. तुम बच्चों की बुद्धि
tum baccoṃ kī buddhi
Literally:
“the intellect of you children”
बच्चों (baccoṃ) is in the oblique plural because it is followed by the genitive postposition की.
Compare:
तुम बच्चे → तुम बच्चों की बुद्धि
tum bacce → tum baccoṃ kī buddhi
“you children” → “the intellect of you children”
की (kī) agrees with बुद्धि (buddhi), which is feminine.
2. के लिए
ke lie = “for”, “intended for”
So:
बुद्धि के लिए
buddhi ke lie
= “for the intellect”
The whole structure can be understood as:
यह है [तुम बच्चों की बुद्धि] के लिए खुराक।
Yah hai [tum baccoṃ kī buddhi] ke lie khurāk.
“This is nourishment for your intellect.”
3. खुराक — khurāk
In ordinary Hindi, खुराक can mean a ration, portion of food, or even a dose.
Here it is figurative:
ज्ञान → बुद्धि की खुराक
jñān → buddhi kī khurāk
“knowledge → nourishment for the intellect”
So the idea is not simply to “learn information,” but to give the intellect something that strengthens and transforms it.
🌟 Meaning in the BK Context
यह है तुम बच्चों की बुद्धि के लिए खुराक।
Yah hai tum baccoṃ kī buddhi ke lie khurāk.
“This is nourishment for your intellect, children.”
The context also says:
वह है बुद्धिवानों की बुद्धि।
Vah hai buddhivānoṃ kī buddhi.
“He is the Intellect of the intellectuals.”
And then:
बुद्धि कितना पलटती है।
Buddhi kitnā palaṭtī hai.
“How greatly the intellect changes!”
So खुराक (khurāk) refers here to the knowledge given by the Father to the intellect. This knowledge does not merely fill the intellect with information; it पलटती है (palaṭtī hai) — turns it around, transforms it, and gives it a completely different way of seeing reality.
In the BK context, the intellect gradually moves from a body-conscious understanding of life toward recognition of the soul, the Father, and the cycle.
This also connects naturally with the preceding expression:
पारस बनाने वाला
pāras banāne vālā
“the one who turns others into pāras / into something precious like gold”
The Father is compared to the philosopher’s stone because His knowledge transforms the intellect.
The central image is therefore:
जैसे शरीर को भोजन चाहिए, वैसे बुद्धि को ज्ञान की खुराक चाहिए।
Jaise śarīr ko bhojan cāhie, vaise buddhi ko jñān kī khurāk cāhie.
Just as the body needs food, the intellect needs the nourishment of knowledge.
