Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 139

13801

```

My heart’s eagerness-power

Brings me

My life’s victory-crown.

```

13802

```

O my soul,

Do remove my life’s

Heaviness-despair!

```

13803

```

God tells me that

My heart’s enthusiasm-role

Pleases Him most.

```

13804

```

My Lord Supreme,

Do save me, save me, save me!

Save my life, save my life

From success-traps! ```

13805

```

If I do not aspire

More soulfully,

More cheerfully

And more self-givingly,

Then my lethargy-disease

Will remain incurable. ```

13806

```

O my mind-dictator,

Look, look!

My heart-liberator

Is fast approaching me. ```

13807

```

I am absolutely sure

That I have been chosen

By my Lord Beloved Supreme

To do something very special for Him. ```

13808

```

Self-advertisement

Is the worst kind of investment

In my life’s perfection-dream.

```

13809

```

My Lord Supreme,

I am never afraid

Of my failure-burden,

But I am terribly afraid

Of Your Displeasure-Eye.

```

13810

```

I start each day

With my heart’s morning beauty,

And I end each day

With my soul’s evening fragrance. ```

13811

```

Only my heart’s silence-smile

Is invited by my Lord Supreme

To strike His Victory-Gong.

```

13812

```

Every morning

My soul’s silence-light

Unconditionally feeds

My heart’s mounting faith-flames. ```

13813

```

Centuries pass by

Before God’s golden Dreams

Become man’s silver realities.

```

13814

```

Eternally beautiful

Is my God-realisation-smile.

Infinitely fruitful

Is my God-manifestation-cry. ```

13815

```

Every day

My Lord Supreme blesses me

With His Compassion-Smile,

So that I will make a monumental attempt

To go beyond

My daily frustration-horizon. ```

13816

```

A pure humility-heart

Is indeed

A sure God-intoxication-life.

```

13817

```

God Himself

Is lengthening your progress-strides

Because you are cheerfully welcoming

Each and every new God-seeker. ```

13818

```

God does not care for you:

This is your giant

Mental hallucination!

```

13819

```

Immortality is beckoning you

Because you are sleeplessly singing

The oneness-song

Inside God’s Heart-Garden. ```

13820

```

Aspiration-lovers

And determination-warriors

Are bound to win,

Bound to win

The supreme victory for God

In the battlefield of life

Here on earth.

```

13821

```

Without Eternity’s direct,

Secret and sacred help,

Nobody has the chance to become

A supremely choice instrument of God. ```

13822

```

My Lord Supreme tells me

That He wants to live

Only inside my heart’s

Silence-fragrance-blossoms. ```

13823

```

There is always a long distance

Between my mind’s loud voice

And my heart’s hallowed

God-fulfilment-choice. ```

13824

```

You chose yourself

Foolishly

Only to lose God

Miserably. ```

13825

```

An unconditional God-lover

Never wants to be

Off-duty.

```

13826

```

Perfection-choice

Is the very beginning

Of a God-satisfying life.

```

13827

```

My morning promise to God

Is that I shall never measure

But only treasure

His Compassion-Light. ```

13828

```

Since the very beginning of creation

There has always been

A most deplorable shortage of

Compassion-eyes, forgiveness-hearts

And gratitude-lives.

```

13829

```

How can you become

An aspiration-specialist

If you do not have

A gratitude-heart

And a surrender-life?

```

13830

```

Nobody told me,

But I definitely know

That my purity-heart’s gratitude-life

Is the only short-cut

To my God-realisation.

```

13831

```

What can a God-Smile do?

A God-Smile can glorify

The human in me

And manifest the divine in me. ```

13832

```

Unlike us,

God’s Heart does not believe in

“Do not disturb” signs.

```

13833

```

My enthusiasm-heart

Quickly and unmistakably sows

Perfection-satisfaction-seeds.

```

13834

```

Each human being

Is a fulfilment-blossoming

Hope-dream-promise of God.

```

13835

```

I love to live

Either inside my heart’s hunger-cry

Or inside my soul’s feast-smile.

```

13836

```

At every moment

God wants us

To smile at Him outwardly

And cry for Him inwardly. ```

13837

```

Every day

My Lord Supreme proudly plays

With my mind-ball —

Simplicity,

And my heart-ball —

Purity. ```

13838

```

God sleeplessly treasures

The purity-smile

Of my heart

And the gratitude-cry

Of my life.

```

13839

```

Expect many changes,

Especially in your inner life,

If you want to make progress

Faster than the fastest. ```

13840

```

Even an iota

Of love-peace and oneness-power

From God

Can save not only today’s fearful world

But also tomorrow’s doubtful world.

```

13841

```

My Lord, my Lord, my Lord,

I came into the world

To make You happy.

At the end of my journey’s close,

You will take me back into Yourself

To make me happy. ```

13842

```

My heart,

I am so proud of you —

That you can see God

Even when He is far away.

My mind,

I am so ashamed of you —

That you cannot see God

Even when He is right in front of you. ```

13843

```

My Lord’s Whisper-Voice

Is my life’s

Only illumination-perfection-choice.

```

13844

```

My heart lovingly

And gratefully

Claims the world.

My mind constantly

And endlessly

Blames the world. ```

13845

```

Every day

God blessingfully offers a message

To each and every earth-dweller:

Self-giving. ```

13846

```

A seeker’s heart

Is a rainbow-hope

And a seeker’s life

Is a sun-vast promise. ```

13847

```

I am illumining

My life’s ignorance-night

With my soul-eternity’s

Silence-light. ```

13848

```

Alas, today despair-tears

Have blinded not only my heart

But also my entire earth-existence.

```

13849

```

Alas,

When am I going to stop using

My criticism-microscope

To observe others’ dwarf-flaws? ```

13850

```

Only a self-giving soul

Can sing the songs

Of world-peace-dreams.

```

13851

```

At last,

Today for the first time,

God and I are dreaming of singing

Our oneness-heart-song. ```

13852

```

My Lord,

I cannot imagine why You care

For my countless imperfections.

“My child,

I cannot imagine how you can live

Without My Heart’s Satisfaction-Smile.” ```

13853

```

Extremely sweet

Is my surrender-heart.

Exceedingly beautiful

Is my gratitude-life. ```

13854

```

Each soulful meditation

Has the capacity to show me

Where God is hiding.

```

13855

```

God enjoys

His mightiest Freedom

Only in my heart’s

Silence-inundated kingdom. ```

13856

```

I have decided

That I shall never touch

The foreign shore

Of insecurity-timidity. ```

13857

```

Self-doubt-poison

Is infinitely more dangerous

And more destructive

Than you can ever imagine! ```

13858

```

My soul does not need

Any interpreter

When it speaks to my heart.

But my soul badly needs

An interpreter

When it wants to speak to my mind. ```

13859

```

May each and every human being

Grow into an immortal

Oneness-peace-heart.

```

13860

```

The spirituality-road

Is an uncertainty-road

Only for those who do not listen

To the soulful whispers

Of their blessingful soul.

```

13861

```

Good-bye, good-bye,

My old ignorance-friend!

My Heavenward illumination-journey

Begins today, here and now. ```

13862

```

Eternal aspiration-lovers

And infinite manifestation-heroes

Are unquestionably first-class instruments

Of the Supreme. ```

13863

```

Shatter, shatter

Your mind’s insecurity-cage.

Come out, come out

Of your heart’s impurity-cave. ```

13864

```

Attachment-cries

Are forced by God Himself

To swim in frustration-seas.

```

13865

```

Sincerity and purity

Are absolutely necessary

To explore the heart-land.

```

13866

```

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye

And my own gratitude-breath

Complete each other.

```

13867

```

Man does not want

To change.

But poor God is always ready

To change Himself

To create a new world

Of soulful peace and fruitful delight. ```

13868

```

O seeker,

Do not be a fool!

Do not stand before the open arms

Of attachment-darkness. ```

13869

```

My Lord Supreme,

Your Compassion-Eye

Far surpasses everybody and everything.

Because of it I can still live

In my heart-home.

```

13870

```

My surrender-heart

Will be crowned by God Himself

Exactly the way a rainbow

Crowns the earth. ```

13871

```

Gratefully

My earth-bound life

Must cry.

Soulfully

My Heaven-free heart

Must fly. ```

13872

```

Even when the world sees

Illumination-bloom in your eyes,

It may not recognise you

As its pathfinder. ```

13873

```

Precious are peace-moments

In my inner life.

Prosperous are peace-hours

In my outer life. ```

13874

```

The self-indulgence-marathon

Of a human being

Is bound to reach its

Destruction-destination

Eventually.

```

13875

```

My heart accepts everything.

My mind expects everything.

My vital rejects everything.

My body neglects everything. ```

13876

```

My mind,

Are you not aware of the fact

That you have been roaming

In expectation-frustration-country

For a very long time?

```

13877

```

In my aspiration-determination-surrender

To God’s Will

I see the blossoming of

My life’s perfection. ```

13878

```

When I still my mind,

I fulfil my first promise

To God.

```

13879

```

My life’s soulful satisfaction-song

Is the only song

That God is never tired of hearing.

```

13880

```

O seeker,

Never allow your doubting mind

To climb up your heart’s

Meditation-mountain! ```

13881

```

My Lord’s Manifestation-Dream-Song

Is the only song

That I love to sing

Every morning and every evening. ```

13882

```

A purity-heart

And a humility-mind

Will discover God everywhere.

```

13883

```

Be patient!

Go slowly, steadily and unerringly.

You do not have to worry.

God is not in a hurry. ```

13884

```

To treasure loneliness

In order to make fast progress

In the spiritual life

Is utterly absurd. ```

13885

```

Long for dynamism!

Your soul will bless you

With a depression-shattering smile.

```

13886

```

A life of humility

Is the easiest and most effective way

To spread God’s Light

On earth. ```

13887

```

My soul and my heart

Are begging

My mind, vital and body

To ride on aspiration-wings

In the small hours of the morning.

```

13888

```

O seeker,

Your doubtful mind

Is nothing other than

Confusion-destruction-storm. ```

13889

```

Alas,

Neither my heart’s aspiration-clock

Nor my life’s dedication-clock

Is keeping proper time. ```

13890

```

God’s Compassion-Eye

Wants to purify me.

God’s Forgiveness-Heart

Wants to immortalise me. ```

13891

```

If you miss your heart’s

Hope-boat,

Then how will you reach your life’s

Promise-destination? ```

13892

```

What I need

Is a pure heart of newness.

What I need

Is a sure life of fulness. ```

13893

```

O my lethargy-body,

You rightly deserve a death-sentence

From my Lord Supreme!

```

13894

```

Do you want to do God

A big favour?

Then force yourself

To give up self-importance. ```

13895

```

O my mind,

Do not allow yourself

To remain in hesitation-maze

If you want to become

A worthy instrument of God.

```

13896

```

It is not possible

For the mechanical life

Of the mind

To care for the heart’s

Perfection-promotion.

```

13897

```

My sleepless faith-heart

Is my peerless

Confidence-life-builder.

```

13898

```

God was waiting,

God is waiting

And God will always wait

For my life’s

Perfection-satisfaction-sunrise.

```

13899

```

Is there any human being on earth

Who has never suffered

From expectation-headache?

```

13900

```

My joy knows no bounds

Because today, for a change,

I am thinking of God only,

I am meditating on God only

And I am depending on God only.
