📜 Hindi

🔤 Transliteration
purānī duniyā se mamatva miṭānā hai aur naī duniyā se lagānā hai.
💬 Translation
One has to detach from the old world and turn one’s attachment toward the new world.
More literally:
One has to erase attachment to the old world and attach it to the new world.
📚 Vocabulary
पुरानी — purānī
old, former. Feminine form of पुराना — purānā, agreeing with दुनिया — duniyā.
दुनिया — duniyā
world.
से — se
from, toward, with regard to.
Here:
पुरानी दुनिया से — purānī duniyā se
= “toward / with regard to the old world.”
ममत्व — mamatva
attachment, possessiveness, the feeling of “mine.”
The word is connected with मम — mama, meaning “mine / belonging to me,” together with the suffix -त्व — -tva, which forms an abstract noun expressing a state or quality.
So ममत्व — mamatva literally conveys the feeling:
“This is mine / this belongs to me.”
मिटाना — miṭānā
to erase, remove, make disappear.
It is related to:
मिटना — miṭnā
to disappear, to be erased.
नई — naī
new; feminine form of नया — nayā.
लगाना — lagānā
to attach, fix, apply, place.
Here it means to direct or attach one’s ममत्व — mamatva toward something.
⚙️ ️Grammar
The sentence is built around two parallel constructions:
पुरानी दुनिया से ममत्व मिटाना है।
purānī duniyā se mamatva miṭānā hai.
→ One has to remove attachment to the old world.
Then:
नई दुनिया से लगाना है।
naī duniyā se lagānā hai.
→ One has to attach it to the new world.
In the second part, ममत्व — mamatva is not repeated. It is understood from the first part.
The fully explicit construction would therefore be:
पुरानी दुनिया से ममत्व मिटाना है और नई दुनिया से ममत्व लगाना है।
purānī duniyā se mamatva miṭānā hai aur naī duniyā se mamatva lagānā hai.
Hindi simply avoids the repetition because the meaning is already clear.
🔎 मिटाना — miṭānā / लगाना — lagānā
The two verbs create an expressive contrast:
ममत्व मिटाना — mamatva miṭānā
→ to erase or remove attachment.
ममत्व लगाना — mamatva lagānā
→ to place or attach that attachment somewhere else.
So the sentence is not only about removing something. It also expresses a change of direction: attachment is withdrawn from the old world and redirected toward the new world.
🌟 Meaning in the BK context
Just before this sentence, the Murli gives the image of someone still living in an old house while a new house is being built in front of them.
बुद्धि चली जायेगी नये घर तरफ।
buddhi calī jāyegī naye ghar taraf.
→ “The intellect will turn toward the new house.”
Even though the person is still living in the old house, their attention and thoughts are already directed toward the new one.
The Murli then says:
ममत्व सारा पुराने से मिटाए नये से जुट जाता है।
mamatva sārā purāne se miṭāe naye se juṭ jātā hai.
→ All the attachment to the old is removed and becomes connected with the new.
In the BK context:
पुरानी दुनिया — purānī duniyā
→ the old world, which is to come to an end.
नई दुनिया — naī duniyā
→ the new world.
The text further clarifies:
नई दुनिया है स्वर्ग।
naī duniyā hai svarga.
→ “The new world is heaven.”
So:
पुरानी दुनिया से ममत्व मिटाना — purānī duniyā se mamatva miṭānā
means gradually removing from the old world the feeling:
“This is mine; this is my world.”
And:
नई दुनिया से ममत्व लगाना — naī duniyā se mamatva lagānā
means directing that feeling of belonging toward the new world.
The word ममत्व — mamatva is therefore especially important here. It does not refer only to emotional attachment. It also carries the deeper sense of “mine-ness,” identification, and belonging.
The sentence could therefore be expanded in meaning as:
“No longer regard the old world as your world; instead, turn your sense of belonging toward the new world.”
