📅 Murli sentence of 03 September 2026

📜 Hindi

आकाश भी पोलार है, नाम-रूप तो है ना.

🔤 Transliteration

ākāś bhī polār hai, nām-rūp to hai nā.

💬 Translation

Even space is an empty expanse; it does have a name and a form, doesn’t it?

Or, more naturally in the BK context:

Even space, though empty, still has a name and a form, doesn’t it?

📚 Vocabulary

🔎 The word पोलार — polār

Here, पोलार (polār) does not mean the English word polar.

It most likely corresponds to the Sindhi पोलारु — polāru, referring to empty space, an expanse, or an intervening space.

In Murli vocabulary it is also explained as:

अन्तरिक्ष स्थान, खाली स्थान
antarikṣ sthān, khālī sthān

→ “space, an empty place.”

So:

आकाश भी पोलार है।
ākāś bhī polār hai.

→ “Even space is an empty expanse.”

It is therefore very likely a Sindhi-influenced word preserved in the language of the Sakar Murlis, rather than an English loanword.

⚙️ ️Grammar

1. आकाश भी पोलार है

ākāś bhī polār hai

Structure:

X + भी + Y + है
X + bhī + Y + hai

→ “X is also Y” / “Even X is Y.”

Here भी — bhī can have the stronger sense:

→ “even space”.

2. नाम-रूप तो है ना

nām-rūp to hai nā

The particle तो — to emphasizes:

नाम-रूप — nām-rūp

So:

नाम-रूप तो है।
nām-rūp to hai.

→ “It certainly has a name and form.”

Then:

है ना?
hai nā?

→ “doesn’t it?” / “isn’t that so?”

The speaker presents the statement as something evident and invites the listener to agree.

🌟 Meaning in the BK Context

The reasoning can be connected with the expression:

नाम-रूप से न्यारा
nām-rūp se nyārā

→ “beyond name and form.”

Baba is showing that this does not necessarily mean that something is an absolute nothingness without any identifiable existence.

Even:

आकाश — ākāś
“space”

appears empty and extremely subtle, yet it can still be identified and named.

A closely related Murli formulation is:

आकाश भी पोलार है। नाम तो है ना “आकाश”।
ākāś bhī polār hai. nām to hai nā “ākāś”.

→ “Space too is empty. But it does have a name, doesn’t it — ‘ākāś’.”

So नाम-रूप — nām-rūp should probably not be understood only as “a name + a visible physical shape.”

रूप — rūp can also mean aspect, nature, or mode of existence.

The main idea is therefore that even something extremely subtle and apparently empty still has an identifiable reality. पोलार — polār does not mean “nothingness”, but rather empty space or an empty expanse.
