It has been suggested, given the lack of openness and cooperation of the BKWSU, that forum members organize together to arrange for an entire copy of the Murlis to be scanned and typed out so that they can be made public for all on this website and free to download.
It would appear that a number of complete sets of the Sakar Murlis exist outside of the Brahmakumaris' control in India. There is at least one with a forum member shivsena and one with the PBKs. What has been suggested is that we hire a professional touch typist, at local rates, to type out the Murlis in full. This would be in addition to someone gradually scanning them. These could then be uploaded in text form to the website either to the Encyclopedia section, here, or the Avyakt Murli section, here.
We are not asking for donations to do this but we are asking if individuals would be willing to assist in the cost of doing so by paying the typist directly. The advantage of having the Murlis typed into text is that it makes them instantly searchable. The aim is to have a final database of all the Murlis that is searchable and that can track the edits and re-writing performed by the BKWSU.
Thank you.
