📚 Vocabulary

⚙️ ️Grammar

1. एक बात पक्की कर लो — ek bāt pakkī kar lo

Literally:

“Make one thing firm.”

पक्का / पक्की (pakkā / pakkī) basically means “solid, firm, definite, certain.” Here, पक्की agrees with बात, which is feminine.

So:

बात पक्की करना — bāt pakkī karnā
= to make something certain, to establish something firmly, to become fully convinced of something.

The idea is therefore not merely to “understand” that one is a soul, but to make this understanding stable and firmly established.

2. कर लो — kar lo

This comes from the construction:

करना + लेना → कर लेना
karnā + lenā → kar lenā

The auxiliary verb लेना (lenā) often adds the sense of doing something for oneself, decisively, or bringing it to completion.

So पक्की कर लो — pakkī kar lo can convey:

“Establish it firmly within yourself once and for all.”

3. हम आत्मा हैं — ham ātmā haĩ

Literally:

“We are soul(s).”

In Murli language, हम आत्मा हैं expresses identification with the soul rather than with the body.

Depending on the perspective, it can therefore be translated as:

“We are souls.”

or, when each person applies it individually:

“I am a soul.”

🌟 Meaning in the BK context

The key word here is पक्की — pakkī.

Baba is not simply asking the children to repeat intellectually:

मैं आत्मा हूँ — maĩ ātmā hū̃
“I am a soul.”

The aim is to make this awareness firm, stable and deeply established.

The sentence can therefore be understood as:

“Make this one thing absolutely certain in your awareness: I am a soul.”

It points to the movement from merely knowing “I am a soul” intellectually to having a stable inner conviction of it.

This firm awareness becomes the basis of देही-अभिमानी अवस्था — dehī-abhimānī avasthā, the state of soul-consciousness.
