बाप बच्चों को समझाते हैं बच्चे माया बड़ा जोर से थप्पड़ लगाती है, विकर्म करा देती है इसलिए कचहरी करो, आपेही अपनी कचहरी करना अच्छा है.

Bāp bacchoṃ ko samajhāte haiṃ — bacce, māyā baṛā jor se thappṛ lagātī hai, vikarm karā detī hai; isliye kacaharī karo; āpe hī apnī kacaharī karnā acchā hai.

💬 Translation

The Father explains to the children:
“Māyā strikes very hard and makes you commit wrong actions.
That’s why you should hold your kacahari — it is best to conduct your own self-judgment.”

💡 kacahari literally means “court of justice,” but in a spiritual sense it means inner tribunal or self-examination.

⚙️ ️Grammar

  1. Causative expression
    1. करा देती है (karā detī hai) = “makes [someone] do.”
      Here, Māyā doesn’t just act — she causes the soul to perform vikarm (negative deeds).
  2. Emphatic reflexive “आपे ही”
    1. Means “by yourself, on your own.”
      → “You should be your own judge,” not waiting for someone else to correct you.
  3. Imperative + suggestion pattern
    1. कचहरी करो — command form, “Do the kacahari.”
    2. कचहरी करना अच्छा है — infinitive + “acchā hai” = “it is good to do.”
      This structure softens the command into a moral suggestion, typical of Murli language.

🧘 The word कचहरी (kacaharī) — three levels of meaning

(a) Ordinary sense

Kacahari = court, tribunal, office of justice.
Common Hindi: “वह रोज़ कचहरी जाता है” — He goes to court every day.

(b) Spiritual or moral sense

Figuratively: “tribunal of the conscience,” “moral self-examination.”
Used in moral and devotional writings:
“मनुष्य को अपनी कचहरी करनी चाहिए” — A person should hold his own inner court.

(c) BK (Brahma Kumaris) sense

कचहरी करना = to judge oneself spiritually, to check one’s actions in the light of purity and God’s remembrance.
It means keeping an inner court, examining where Māyā has struck, and purifying the self through awareness.
