📜 Hindi

मौत सामने खड़ा है फिर इतने लाख, करोड़ कौन बैठ खायेंगे। क्यों नहीं इनको सफल करना चाहिए !

🔤 Transliteration

maut sāmne khaṛā hai, phir itne lākh, karoṛ kaun baiṭh khāyeṅge. kyoṃ nahīṃ inko saphal karnā cāhiye!

Simplified reading:

maut samne khara hai, phir itne lakh, karor kaun baith khayenge. kyon nahin inko safal karna chahiye!

💬 Translation

Death is standing right in front; then who will sit and enjoy so many lakhs and crores? Why should these not be used fruitfully?

Or more naturally:

When death is right in front of a person, who will still be able to enjoy all those millions? Shouldn’t they be put to good use instead?

🧠 General meaning

The sentence begins with a strong reminder: material wealth becomes useless when death comes.

A person may have accumulated लाख (lākh, hundreds of thousands) and करोड़ (karoṛ, tens of millions), meaning a great fortune. But if death is standing in front of him, he will not be able to sit comfortably and enjoy that wealth.

This is the force of:

कौन बैठ खायेंगे ?
kaun baiṭh khāyeṅge?
Who will sit and enjoy it?

The implied answer is: no one.

The second sentence gives the practical spiritual conclusion:

क्यों नहीं इनको सफल करना चाहिए !
kyoṃ nahīṃ inko saphal karnā cāhiye!
Why should these not be made fruitful?

In other words:
Why not use this wealth in a meaningful, beneficial way before it is too late?

With the context, this refers to using money for opening a रूहानी कॉलेज (rūhānī kolej), a spiritual college, where human beings can receive spiritual knowledge and become ever-healthy, wealthy and happy.

📚 Vocabulary

मौत (maut)
→ death.
A common, direct word. A more Sanskritised word would be मृत्यु (mṛtyu).

सामने (sāmne)
→ in front, facing.

खड़ा है (khaṛā hai)
→ is standing, is present there.
मौत सामने खड़ा है (maut sāmne khaṛā hai) means: death is standing in front, or more naturally, death is near / death is imminent.

Strictly speaking, मौत (maut) is usually feminine, so standard grammar would expect खड़ी है (khaṛī hai). But in the oral style of the Murli, such agreement may sometimes be loose.

फिर (phir)
→ then, in that case.

इतने (itne)
→ so many, this many.

लाख (lākh)
→ one hundred thousand, 100,000.

करोड़ (karoṛ)
→ ten million, 10,000,000.

Here, लाख, करोड़ (lākh, karoṛ) does not only mean exact amounts. It represents large sums of money, accumulated wealth, property, and material possessions.

कौन (kaun)
→ who?
Here it is rhetorical: the expected answer is nobody.

बैठ खायेंगे (baiṭh khāyeṅge)
→ literally, “will sit and eat.”
But the real meaning is: will sit and enjoy / consume / make use of those riches.

इनको (inko)
→ these, them.
Here it refers back to लाख, करोड़ (lākh, karoṛ), the wealth.

सफल करना (saphal karnā)
→ to make fruitful, to use successfully, to put to good use.

करना चाहिए (karnā cāhiye)
→ should do, ought to do.

🧱 Grammar and nuances

1. मौत सामने खड़ा है

maut sāmne khaṛā hai
Literally: death is standing in front.

This is a vivid image. Death is not presented as a distant idea, but as something standing right before the person. It means:

death is near, life is uncertain, and the body can be left at any moment.

2. फिर इतने लाख, करोड़…

phir itne lākh, karoṛ…
Here फिर (phir) means then / in that case.

The logic is:

If death is already in front, then what use are all those millions?

3. कौन बैठ खायेंगे

kaun baiṭh khāyeṅge

Literally: who will sit and eat?

But खाना (khānā) here does not mean only “to eat.” It has a broader idiomatic sense:

to consume, to enjoy, to benefit from, to make use of.

And बैठ (baiṭh) adds the sense of sitting comfortably, as if one still had time to enjoy everything peacefully.

So the expression means:

Who will be able to sit there and enjoy all this wealth?

The contrast is powerful:

मौत सामने खड़ा है
maut sāmne khaṛā hai
→ death is standing in front.

बैठ खायेंगे
baiṭh khāyeṅge
→ sitting comfortably and enjoying.

The point is:
How can someone calmly enjoy wealth when death is already standing before them?

4. क्यों नहीं इनको सफल करना चाहिए

kyoṃ nahīṃ inko saphal karnā cāhiye

This is not a neutral question. It is more like an exhortation:

Why not put these riches to good use?
Shouldn’t they be made fruitful?

The key expression is सफल करना (saphal karnā). It does not simply mean to spend.

खर्च करना (kharc karnā)
→ to spend.

सफल करना (saphal karnā)
→ to make fruitful, to use in a way that produces a valuable result.

So the sentence is not merely saying:
“Spend your money.”

It is saying:
“Use your wealth in such a way that it bears spiritual fruit.”

🪷 Spiritual / BK meaning

In the BK context, this sentence teaches both detachment and right use of resources.

It does not simply say that money is bad. Rather, it says:

Money kept only out of attachment is temporary.
Money accumulated only for oneself cannot go with the soul after death.
But money used for spiritual service can become fruitful.

The context mentions opening a रूहानी कॉलेज (rūhānī kolej), a spiritual college. So the idea is that wealth can be used to create a place where people receive spiritual knowledge and transform their lives.

In this sense, सफल करना (saphal karnā) means:

to transform material wealth into spiritual benefit.

Instead of letting wealth remain unused or tied to attachment, one should use it for an elevated purpose.

✨ Possible reformulations

Close to the original:
Death is standing in front; then who will sit and enjoy so many lakhs and crores? Why should these not be made fruitful?

More natural:
When death is near, who will still be able to enjoy all those millions? Would it not be better to put them to good use?

With the BK context:
Since these riches cannot be taken along at death, it is better to use them now for spiritual service, so that they bring real benefit to human beings.

🌿 Essential idea

मौत सामने खड़ा है फिर इतने लाख, करोड़ कौन बैठ खायेंगे।
क्यों नहीं इनको सफल करना चाहिए !

maut sāmne khaṛā hai, phir itne lākh, karoṛ kaun baiṭh khāyeṅge.
kyoṃ nahīṃ inko saphal karnā cāhiye!

The sentence says that accumulated wealth cannot be enjoyed or taken along when death comes. Therefore, it should be used fruitfully, especially for a spiritual purpose.
