Disobedience, time is up!

1.

```

Disobedience,

Time is up!

Now, you shut up,

Pack up

And go away!

```

2.

```

Disobedience,

You have destroyed

My life's beauty

And my heart's fragrance. ```

3.

```

There is no such thing

As negligible disobedience. ```

4.

```

Disobedience,

You are always intolerable,

But you are never, never

Invincible. ```

5.

```

Disobedience-thoughts

Are responsible

For the total loss

Of my heart-beauty's eyes. ```

6.

```

Sleeplessly and breathlessly

Protect yourself

From disobedience-dragon,

O God-lover. ```

7.

```

Today's disobedience

Is

Tomorrow's

Calamity-thunderstorm. ```

8.

```

Disobedience unlimited

Is

Your stupidity-hunger.

```

9.

```

This world of ours

Is full of disobedient people.

Can you not try

To be an exception?

Try!

Certainly you can succeed. ```

10.

```

With hope

God built this world.

With disobedience

Man is building his world. ```

11.

```

A disobedience-seeker

Is doomed to enter early

Into his spirituality-empty grave.

```

12.

```

Disobedience,

God may come to you

With His Forgiveness,

But never, never with His Pride. ```

13.

```

Obedience says to God,

"Father, please tell me

How I can please You more,

Infinitely more."

Disobedience says to God,

"God, if You are really

The Possessor

Of infinite Compassion,

How is it that You cannot

Make me happy

In my own way?"

```

14.

```

In the inner world,

The seeker's disobedience

Is dangerous.

In the outer world,

The seeker's disobedience

Is contagious. ```

15.

```

Poor God!

I feel sorry for You.

I am sure You never even dreamt

Of my disobedience. ```

16.

```

Disobedience,

Look what you have done to me!

You have turned

My aspiration-flame-dreams

Into my frustration-ashes.

```

17.

```

My Lord, I beg of You,

Do give me the capacity

To end my long acquaintance

And association

With disobedience.

```

18.

```

Disobedience,

Do you not realise

That you make my Lord cry?

Can you not see

That you have devoured

God's Mountain-Hopes for me? ```

19.

```

O my mind's disobedience,

O my heart's ingratitude,

Do tell me,

Who instigated whom first

To displease God?

```

20.

```

Alas, my life-boat plies

Between

My life's disobedience

And

My soul's embarrassment.

```

21.

```

Obedience prayerfully

Cares to see

God's Happiness-Heart.

Disobedience proudly

Dares to see

God's Volcano-Eye. ```

22.

```

God-disobedience

Is

The universal ignorance-sleep.

```

23.

```

Obedience is

Earth-heart-evolution.

Disobedience is

Earth-life-revolution. ```

24.

```

My Compassion-Lord

Has promised me

That He will hold my hand,

Even in my disobedience-hell. ```

25.

```

I was a fleeting dreamer

Of God-disobedience-force.

But now I am

A permanent dweller

In God-obedience-delight.

```

26.

```

Disobedience,

God is infinitely more displeased

With you

Than you can ever dare

To imagine!

```

27.

```

Disobedience,

What you want is constant

Attention-appreciation

From God,

But what you need is constant

Illumination-perfection

From God.

```

28.

```

Disobedience

Is

To make extravagant demands

Upon God. ```

29.

```

Disobedience,

Shame on you!

You are

The worst possible extremist

In God-rejection.

```

30.

```

Disobedience of my mind-sword,

I do not want you.

Obedience of my heart-flute,

I love you and I need you. ```

31.

```

Disobedience,

You have deserted spirituality.

Disobedience,

You have discarded integrity. ```

32.

```

Disobedience-pride, hide!

My frustration-anger is all ready

To chide you ruthlessly.

```

33.

```

Disobedience means

The mind's bold refusal

To bow to the illumined heart.

```

34.

```

Disobedience means

The mind's shameless tug-of-war

With the blameless God.

```

35.

```

Disobedience means

The heart's

Universal oneness-promise-destruction.

```

36.

```

Disobedience

Is

A hardliner God-doubter.

```

37.

```

Disobedience enjoys

Self-imposed exile

From God.

```

38.

```

Disobedience,

You are blind!

Can you not see

That you are heading towards

An uncharted wilderness?

```

39.

```

In the spiritual life,

Two real beasts:

Disobedience, the mad elephant,

And

Suspicion, the hungry wolf.

```

40.

```

Disobedience

Is

Negativity's

Supreme authority in action. ```

41.

```

Disobedience

Is

Spirituality's

Completely paralysing fall. ```

42.

```

Disobedience

Is

A barking God-doubt-dog.

```

43.

```

Disobedience,

You are more than

An aspiration-starvation.

You are more than

An aspiration-death.

You are indeed

An aspiration-grave.

```

44.

```

Disobedience,

You teach me

How to dislike God

And

How to reject God.

But I clearly see

That your days are numbered,

For God's

Compassion-Illumination-Satisfaction

Will ultimately be victorious

In and through my life.

```

45.

```

Disobedience,

Are you not lucky?

God has not given up,

Even on you. ```

46.

```

Disobedience,

I am telling you once and for all,

Do the right thing:

Look at God's

Compassion-flooded Eye.

Be the right thing:

God's Forgiveness-seeker

And

God's Fulfilment-lover.

```

47.

```

Disobedience,

God the Compassion whispered.

You did not care to respond.

Now God the Justice thunders:

"Surrender you must!

No escape!

No escape!"

```

48.

```

Disobedience,

Yesterday God stood

In front of you

As a street beggar.

Today the same God stands

In front of you

As the Absolute Lord Commander Supreme.

```

49.

```

Disobedience,

God's rival you are.

Do you know what God does?

In spite of knowing

Who you are —

Destruction-dreamer,

Destruction-lover,

Destruction-enjoyer —

He claims you as His own,

Very own. ```

50.

```

Disobedience,

Can you not try to be

God's worthy rival

By offering Him your

Ignorance-mountain

And

Ignorance-ocean?

Can you not try to become

His Eternity's choicest instrument,

Him to love,

Him to fulfil in His own Way?

Do not forget

That you are of God.

Do not forget

That you are for God

ONLY. ```
