📅 Hindi Lesson – Murli of 15 August 2026

📅 Murli sentence of 15 August 2026

📜 Hindi

बाप समझाते हैं - देह के सब धर्म छोड़ अपने को आत्मा समझ मुझ बाप को याद करेंगे तो पतित से पावन बन जायेंगे।

🔤 Transliteration

Bāp samajhāte haiṃ — deh ke sab dharm choṛ apne ko ātmā samajh mujh bāp ko yād kareṃge to patit se pāvan ban jāyeṃge.

💬 Translation

The Father explains: “If you let go of all the identities connected with the body, consider yourself to be a soul, and remember Me, your Father, then you will become pure from impure.”

Here, धर्म (dharm) does not mean only “religion.” In this context, it refers more broadly to the affiliations and distinctions connected with the body — Muslim, Hindu, Buddhist, and so on.

📚 Vocabulary

⚙️ ️Grammar

1. देह के सब धर्म छोड़

deh ke sab dharm choṛ

Literally:

देह के सब धर्म
deh ke sab dharm
= “all the dharmas of the body”

छोड़
choṛ
= “leaving / having left”

Here छोड़ is a shortened conjunctive form of छोड़कर (choṛkar):

देह के सब धर्म छोड़
deh ke sab dharm choṛ
= “leaving aside all the bodily dharmas.”

The context clarifies what देह के धर्म means:

मैं मुसलमान हूँ, हिन्दू हूँ, बौद्धी हूँ... यह सब देह के धर्म हैं।
maiṃ musalmān hūṃ, hindū hūṃ, bauddhī hūṃ... yah sab deh ke dharm haiṃ

“I am Muslim, I am Hindu, I am Buddhist... all these are dharmas of the body.”

So here धर्म (dharm) has a wider sense than just “religion”: it refers to distinctions and affiliations that belong to bodily existence.

2. अपने को आत्मा समझ

apne ko ātmā samajh

This uses the common construction:

X को Y समझना
X ko Y samajhnā
= “to regard X as Y”

So:

अपने को आत्मा समझना
apne ko ātmā samajhnā
= “to regard oneself as a soul.”

Here too, समझ (samajh) functions as a shortened form of समझकर (samajhkar):

अपने को आत्मा समझ
apne ko ātmā samajh
= “considering yourself to be a soul.”

3. मुझ बाप को

mujh bāp ko

मुझ (mujh) is the oblique form of मैं (maiṃ), “I / me.”

मुझ बाप को
mujh bāp ko
literally means:

“Me, the Father.”

So:

मुझ बाप को याद करना
mujh bāp ko yād karnā
= “to remember Me, the Father.”

The word बाप (bāp) specifies who मुझ (mujh) refers to.

4. याद करेंगे तो… बन जायेंगे

yād kareṃge to… ban jāyeṃge

This is a very common conditional pattern:

X करेंगे तो Y होगा
X kareṃge to Y hogā
= “if you do X, then Y will happen.”

Here:

याद करेंगे तो पतित से पावन बन जायेंगे।
yād kareṃge to patit se pāvan ban jāyeṃge

“If you remember the Father, you will become pure from impure.”

5. पतित से पावन

patit se pāvan

The pattern:

X से Y बनना
X se Y bannā
= “to go from X to Y / to become Y from X”

So:

पतित से पावन
patit se pāvan
= “from impure to pure.”

The contrast पतित ↔ पावन (patit ↔ pāvan) is very common in Murli vocabulary.

🌟 Meaning in the BK context

देह के सब धर्म छोड़ अपने को आत्मा समझ
deh ke sab dharm choṛ apne ko ātmā samajh

Here, देह के धर्म (deh ke dharm) refers to distinctions that come from the body: “I am Muslim,” “Hindu,” “Buddhist,” and so on. The Murli does not say that the soul possesses these dharmas; they belong to the देह (deh), the body.

The central point is therefore to move away from:

देह-अभिमान
deh-abhimān
“body-consciousness / identification with the body”

and to practise:

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

Then:

मुझ बाप को याद करना
mujh bāp ko yād karnā
“to remember Me, the Father.”

The context continues:

मैं आत्मा हूँ, हम सब ब्रदर्स का बाप एक है।
maiṃ ātmā hūṃ, ham sab brothers kā bāp ek hai

“I am a soul; we are all brothers, and we have one Father.”

So the movement can be summed up using BK vocabulary itself:

देह के धर्म / देह-अभिमान → अपने को आत्मा समझना → बाप की याद → पतित से पावन
deh ke dharm / deh-abhimān → apne ko ātmā samajhnā → bāp kī yād → patit se pāvan

“bodily distinctions / body-consciousness → considering oneself to be a soul → remembrance of the Father → becoming pure from impure.”
