Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 270

26901

```

God reads my life’s

Love-devotion-surrender-book

Every day, without fail,

Blessingfully. ```

26902

```

God reads my life’s

Gratitude-heart-book

Every day, without fail,

Proudly. ```

26903

```

Each Heaven-climbing

Aspiration-heart

Is a God-treasury.

```

26904

```

My division-mind does not dare,

But my aspiration-heart

Dares to imagine

A world without suffering. ```

26905

```

Criticism

Is nothing short of

A wisdom-barren mind.

```

26906

```

Alas,

My heart is always

Painfully haunted

By the absence of God. ```

26907

```

A confusion-mind

Never knows

What the heart-prosperity is.

```

26908

```

It is the God-lovers

And not the God-speakers

Who eternally live for God.

```

26909

```

My aspiration

Is

My God-foundation-certainty.

```

26910

```

My obedience-heart

Is

My God-perfection-life.

```

26911

```

O soul of mine,

Can you not see

How often I pine

For you? ```

26912

```

A purity-thought

Is the ecstasy

Of sweetness.

```

26913

```

Not your bravery

But your stupidity

Says that it can live

Without God. ```

26914

```

My thinking

And God’s twinkling

Always live together.

```

26915

```

Impossibility-trees

Do not grow

In my God-surrender-heart-garden.

```

26916

```

No aspiration-sun

Must suffer

From a sunset.

```

26917

```

Total satisfaction

Will be all ours

If we allow our hearts

To guide us. ```

26918

```

O my mind,

If you do not leave doubt,

Faith will never come to you

To give you happiness. ```

26919

```

O my aspiration-heart,

You are the only one

To please God

In His own Way. ```

26920

```

Can you imagine what God does?

When I tell God

That I shall never be as good as He is,

He just bursts out laughing. ```

26921

```

O my heart,

Do not be bashful before God.

Just be prayerful and soulful.

He is all for you. ```

26922

```

A doubting mind

Feeds on its stupid discovery

Of others’ weaknesses.

```

26923

```

The self-doubting life

Is a self-disguised

Demon.

```

26924

```

The stupid and audacious mind

Enjoys

Disobedience-outbreaks.

```

26925

```

Miracles

Do happen

In every human life.

```

26926

```

God’s Compassion-Life

And His Fragrance-Breath

Are inseparable.

```

26927

```

Sooner or later

We all must demolish

Our ego-towers.

```

26928

```

No devotion,

No quick and convincing

Satisfaction-progress.

```

26929

```

In the land of spirituality,

An unaspiring mind

Is more dead than alive.

```

26930

```

The doubting mind

Can never possess

A compassion-umbrella.

```

26931

```

No patience-practice,

No perfection-fulfilment-smile. ```

26932

```

Is there any human mind

That does not pass through

The valleys of uncertainty?

```

26933

```

God loves my heart dearly

Because it solely depends

On God.

```

26934

```

The mind’s newness

And the heart’s fulness

Must always be kept

In very good condition. ```

26935

```

An unconditional surrender

Is

A thriving fulfilment-smile.

```

26936

```

Expectation

Often flounders

In barren frustration-lands.

```

26937

```

The sterling faith-investment

Knows no

Ignorance-life-night.

```

26938

```

Detachment

Knows no

Failure-frustration-torture.

```

26939

```

Without a determination-mind,

Nobody can succeed

In his outer life.

```

26940

```

Without an aspiration-heart,

Nobody can proceed

In his God-discovery

On earth. ```

26941

```

Satisfaction loves to live

Only in

A God-surrender-heart.

```

26942

```

O seeker,

Every day you must tame

The anger of your vital.

```

26943

```

God’s Compassion-Eye

And

God’s Forgiveness-Heart

Are extremely fond of each other. ```

26944

```

Like the heart,

The mind too can invoke

Silence-delight

If it wants to. ```

26945

```

Because of his universal

Oneness-heart,

His mind-pride-tower

Has collapsed. ```

26946

```

A self-giving heart

Sees

No stop sign.

```

26947

```

A purity-heart

Lives far beyond

The snares

Of jealousy and insecurity. ```

26948

```

To decorate my heart-room,

My aspiration-heart-tears

Are of paramount importance.

```

26949

```

The reasoning mind shall doubt God,

Even if He stands right before

The reasoning mind.

```

26950

```

The aspiration-heart

Does not have to depend

On God’s physical Presence

For authenticity. ```

26951

```

The gentle whispers

Of God’s Compassion-Eye

Have transformed

My God-doubting mind. ```

26952

```

My mind wants to see God

Face to face

For its satisfaction.

```

26953

```

My life wants to live inside

God’s Heart-Garden

For its satisfaction.

```

26954

```

My heart longs to live

At God’s Lotus-Feet

For its satisfaction.

```

26955

```

Divinity may withdraw

By the time humanity

Awakens to Light.

```

26956

```

Each failure

Has a special significance

Behind it.

```

26957

```

I tell God

That He does not have to love me

As long as I can love Him.

```

26958

```

God tells me

That He abides only

By a give and take policy.

```

26959

```

Each self-giving thought

Is, indeed,

A world-peace-pioneer.

```

26960

```

Each day I pray to God

To give me the capacity

To declare

As the last day of my desire-life. ```

26961

```

My heart’s God-gratitude-songs

Are the only ones

Flooded with beauty, purity,

Illumination and perfection. ```

26962

```

My life and I feel safe

Only at one place,

And that place is my Lord’s

Ever-expanding Eye. ```

26963

```

A tiny hope-blossom

Is all I need every morning

To be a choice instrument

Of my Lord Supreme. ```

26964

```

If you look at desire,

No matter from which direction,

Your aspiration-heart-eye

Will definitely be blinded. ```

26965

```

Either God’s Forgiveness-Feet

Or God’s Compassion-Eye

Can alone feed

My aspiration-heart-cries. ```

26966

```

Without the descent

Of an unconditional Grace

From Above,

We can never clear

Our inner stormy skies.

```

26967

```

We may succeed in stopping

The speed of outer light,

But we shall never succeed in stopping

The speed of inner light,

For the inner light and its destination

Are immortal friends. ```

26968

```

We must shun anything

That tempts our aspiration-heart

And dedication-life —

The sooner the better! ```

26969

```

Where do I live?

I live inside the hope-fragrance

Of my heart-garden.

```

26970

```

My obedience-life is every day

Beckoned by

Eternity’s newness

And

Infinity’s fulness.

```

26971

```

What an ingratitude-life needs

Is an immediate and everlasting

Replacement.

```

26972

```

My gratitude-heart

Has a very special place

Deep inside

My Lord’s own Satisfaction-Breath. ```

26973

```

It is our wisdom-light

That teaches us

How to cling to

Each God-moment. ```

26974

```

I have only one prayer:

May my heart charm prayerfully

My Lord’s Forgiveness-Feet.

```

26975

```

O my lethargy-body,

Arise!

Arise!

Just once open your eyes.

Look who is standing

Right in front of you —

God Himself!

```

26976

```

When we try to measure

God’s Love,

We are forced to enjoy

An ever-puzzling creation-game. ```

26977

```

Alas, my dreams are fading,

My realities are hiding.

I find myself inside

My collapsing God-search. ```

26978

```

God tells me that

Each self-giving thought of mine

Can easily outshine

Every star in His Heart-Sky. ```

26979

```

My heart’s sorrowful song

And I

Cherish each other.

```

26980

```

My soul’s blissful song

And I

Fulfil each other.

```

26981

```

O my mind,

Heaven does not care

To know

Your mighty name. ```

26982

```

O my mind,

Heaven does not have anything to do

With your vast fame.

```

26983

```

O my mind,

Heaven is eagerly waiting

For the tiniest aspiration-bloom

Inside your desert-dryness. ```

26984

```

My Lord,

Do smile at me once more

To reassure me

That You do love me. ```

26985

```

Each time I tell my heart

That it is not aspiring

To my satisfaction,

It just bursts into sobs. ```

26986

```

When my heart satisfies God

In God’s own Way,

I immediately see the blooming blossom

Of an ecstasy-rose

Inside my heart-garden.

```

26987

```

My mind,

So many divine thoughts

Are trying to enter into you.

Why are you so inhospitable? ```

26988

```

We must be ruthless

With our

Troublemaker doubts.

```

26989

```

To kindle the fire

Of the heart,

We need an incessant flow

Of tears. ```

26990

```

If I can offer

Only for a brief moment

My gratitude-heart to my Lord Supreme,

My joy will know no bounds. ```

26991

```

To bypass the doubting mind

We all must try

And we all must succeed.

```

26992

```

God tells me that

If I am unwilling to play with Him,

Then He will not allow me

To pray to Him. ```

26993

```

My mind procrastinates.

My heart hesitates.

Alas,

Who is going to come to liberate me? ```

26994

```

Attention, my mind, attention!

Come and be with me

Inside my heart-garden

Before brooding doubts

Start attacking you.

```

26995

```

My mind, I am pleading

With my aspiration-heart

And dedication-life

To turn towards Light. ```

26996

```

I tell you,

Very soon the story will change.

The beggar in me will play the role

Of an emperor. ```

26997

```

God is Compassion.

God is Forgiveness.

God is everything.

But He prefers to be

Oneness.

```

26998

```

Self-giving

Is the sacred secret

Of our happiness-life.

```

26999

```

If you are one hundred per cent

For God,

Only then can God teach you

The sweetest melody

Of His Love.

```

27000

```

My Twenty-Seven Thousand

Aspiration-Plants,

My Lord Beloved Absolute Supreme

Has given me to give you

The Sun-Smile-Blossoms

Of His Heart.

My Twenty-Seven Thousand

Aspiration-Plants,

You have given humanity

A sleepless God-thirst

And

A breathless God-hunger. ```
