God's Compassion-Eye
Makes me a millionaire.My happiness-heart
Makes God a multi-millionaire. ```My Lord Supreme,
Every day do inundateMy heart, my mind, my vital and my body
With a new and record-breakingObedience-ecstasy-sea.
```I came into the world to prove
That my Lord is always rightAnd I am always wrong.
I am right only whenI am with Him, in Him and for Him.
```My prayer-mind
Expects my Beloved Lord SupremeTo make me happy.
My meditation-heartExpects me to make
My Beloved Lord Supreme happy. ```My Beloved Lord Supreme,
It is getting so late.When are You going to bind me
With Your Oneness-Heart-Chains? ```My Beloved Lord Supreme,
May each and every breath of mineBecome a gratitude-prayer-fragrance
To love You and please You alwaysIn Your own Way.
```My Lord Beloved Supreme,
What happens when I obey YouAnd when I don't obey You?
"My child,When you obey Me,
You think that I gain much from you,But I gain nothing, absolutely nothing.
But when you disobey Me,You lose everything that you have
And you are in the inner worldWhere real reality abides.
In the inner worldYou are not even a match
For a street beggar." ```My Lord Beloved Supreme,
I do not have love-garden for You today.I do not have devotion-flower for You today.
I do not have surrender-fragrance for You today.I do not have gratitude-tears and smiles
For You today.But will You not give me another chance,
Another day,To give You all these and anything more
That I have deep withinAnd I am not aware of?
My Lord,No matter what I say,
No matter what I do,I know that You are all mine,
Only mine,And I am Yours, only Yours.
```There is no holiday for a God-lover
Who longs to love GodIn God's own Way.
There is no holiday for a God-serverWho longs to serve God
In God's own Way.Why?
Because God Himself does not want themTo have holidays.
God says:"Each holiday can easily
Become a prey to a newTemptation-frustration-destruction-day."
```Not God's Sound-Mouth
But God's Silence-EyeHas silenced my big mouth
And tall pride. ```My Lord,
At times You smile at me;I wonder why.
My Lord,At times You cry for me;
I wonder why."My child,
I smile when your heartIs only for Me.
I cry when I do not findYour heart inside My Heart."
```I pray to God for God to bless me
With His Protection-Feet.I meditate on God for God to bless me
With His Satisfaction-Heart. ```It is good to be compassionate,
But to whom?To the one who is still trying
And not to the one who has given up. ```Sincerity expands my mind.
Purity expands my heart.Humility expands my life.
Divinity expands my entire being. ```My prayers
Are my heart's tears.My meditations
Are my soul's smiles. ```My Lord cares infinitely more
For my presenceThan for my excellence.
```Where do I live?
I live insideMy Lord's Forgiveness-Smiles
And my heart's gratitude-tears. ```By God's Measure,
I want my heartTo be always pure and good.
By God's Measure,I want my life
To be always self-giving and perfect. ```I shall succeed,
I must succeed,Because my outer and visible partner
Is faith.I shall proceed,
I must proceed,Because my inner and invisible Partner
Is God Himself. ```A self-giving heart
Everywhere seesGod's Hope-Blossoms
And God's Promise-Blooms. ```My Lord Beloved Supreme,
Please save me, save me,From insecurity's constantly
False alarms. ```My heart goes
Wherever my heart is needed.My soul goes
Wherever my soul is needed.My Supreme goes
Even unheeded and unneededTo so many places.
```God wants my aspiration to grow into
The Smile of His Transcendental Self.God wants my dedication to blossom into
The Throb of His Universal Heart. ```Am I not fooling myself?
How can I be a God-dreamerIf I am not already a God-believer?
How can I be a God-loverIf I am not already a God-listener?
How can I be a God-fulfillerIf I am not already a God-server?
```There was a time when I was
My mind-centred bitterness.But now I am
My God-centred sweetness. ```God-disobedience-seekers
Will bury themselvesLong before the actual arrival
Of their death. ```Peace
Is not mutual agreement.Peace
Is oneness-achievement. ```So many God-Secrets are being hidden
Inside my heart's secret tearsAnd inside my soul's sacred smiles.
```O my Absolute Lord Supreme,
I never thoughtThat there would come a time
When all my desiresWould be desireless.
```I do not speak to God
When my mind is angry with Him.God does not speak to me
When my heart is not hungry for Him. ```My Lord Supreme,
Do make me my soul-bird'sRose-fragrance.
```A God-readiness-mind
I have.A God-willingness-heart
I am. ```I am divinely happy
Because my mind-masterHas lost his job.
```Mine is not the life
Of God-disappointment-tears.Mine is the life
Of God-fulfilment-smiles. ```The power of silence
Is the only powerThat can and shall
Transform the world. ```We can run away
From God's Compassion-Heart,But we cannot hide
From God's Justice-Eye. ```My Lord Beloved Supreme,
I have given up completely.Do whatever You want to do
With my doubtful mind,Tearful heart and fearful life.
```God wants me to please Him
With my heart's tears,Not with my mind's fears.
```My Lord, my Lord, my Lord,
If You really love me,Then do not allow me
To miss even one singleObedience-opportunity.
```My Lord, my Lord, my Lord,
I am trying to touch Your EyeFor Power.
You are trying to touch my heartFor love.
Alas, both of us are unsuccessful. ```My self-acceptance
Is making me brave.My God-dependence
Is making me perfect. ```When I tell God
That I love Him onlyAnd I need Him only,
He secretly tells meHow He wishes He could hear it
Again and again. ```I am proud
Of my mind-glory-palace.God is not only proud
But also fondOf my peace-heart-cottage.
```God's Compassion-Eye
And man's insecurity-heartAre inseparable.
```Alas, I am totally lost.
I want to conquerGod's world.
God wants me to conquerHis Heart.
```My Lord, not Your seething Eyes
But Your streaming TearsAre killing me.
```The beaming smiles
From my Master's eyesAre making me happy beyond measure.
The streaming tearsFrom my Master's heart
Are making me perfect —Far, far and far beyond
My imagination-flights. ```God's Compassion-Eye
Had chosen meLong before I chose
God's Protection-Feet. ```When I give my mind to God,
He says to me,"My child, I gladly accept
Your mind."When I give my heart to God,
He says to me,"My child, I desperately need
Your heart." ```When I give God what I have,
God says to me,"You are such a nice
And beautiful child."When I give God what I am,
God says to me,"You are such a perfect
And indispensable child." ```May my God-realisation-hope
Every day riseLike the exquisite beauty
Of the morning sun. ```My mind
Does not dare to challengeMy heart's
Confidence-sunrise. ```Yesterday
My name was desire-despair.Today
My name is aspiration-ecstasy. ```Even though I never answer
God's Calls,His Heart of Compassion
Keeps calling meDay in and day out.
```There was a time
When God livedInside my surrender-heart.
Now God livesInside my gratitude-breath.
```O my mind,
Please do me a big favour:Start shining.
O my heart,Please do me a big favour:
Start meditating.O my life,
Please do me a big favour:Start serving.
O my soul,Please do me a big favour:
Start whispering.O my Lord,
Please do me a big favour:Start smiling at me!
```My Beloved Lord Supreme,
When I do not obey You,I am absolutely sure
That it deeply hurts You.Now tell me which method You prefer:
To force me to obey YouWith Your absolute Power,
Or to descend into my heartWith infinitely more Love
To obey You?"My child, I have only one Way,
And I will always have one Way.That Way is the Way of My Love —
My Eternity's Love, My Infinity's LoveAnd My Immortality's Love."
```My Lord Beloved Supreme,
What is the differenceBetween human pride
And divine pride?"Human pride is destruction-dance
Before possession-smile.Divine pride is when you claim Me
As your own, very own,And I claim you
As My own Eternity's DreamAnd My own Immortality's Reality."
```Desire life
We acquire.Aspiration-heart
We require. ```Compassion-Village
Is my Lord's Birthplace.Satisfaction-Cottage
Is my Lord's Village-Home. ```God's Confidence blossoms
Inside my aspiration-heart.God's Assurance blooms
Inside my inspiration-eyes. ```My mind-experiment tells me
That God is a very old Man.My heart-experience tells me
That God is the most beautiful Child. ```A sincere God-lover
Conquers insecurity.A false God-lover
Surrenders to insecurity. ```A newness-searching mind
Gladdens me.A oneness-starving heart
Enlightens me. ```God comes to me
With His endless Smile-Dreams.I go to God
With my helpless reality-tears. ```My desire-mind travels
Through fantasy's frustration-lands.My aspiration-heart flies
In ecstasy's illumination-skies. ```My Lord Beloved Supreme
Every dayGives me the same
Single piece of advice:"My child,
Smile, smile, smile." ```When my mind prays,
I hear the sweet melodyOf the unseen Beyond.
When my heart meditates,I hear the soul-stirring melody
Of the ever-transcending Beyond. ```Each good thought
Helps me gloriously returnTo my universal oneness-heart-home.
```May each prayer-beauty
Of my mindAdd my soul's fragrance-delight
To the peace-birdOf my heart.
```God's Compassion-Eye-Smile
Looks out for me.My aspiration-heart-cry
Looks out for God.Successful is God's Eye —
So is my heart. ```In all the years I have known God,
Not even once has He asked meWhy I am so shamelessly unaspiring.
But He has asked me repeatedlyWhy I am not more aspiring.
```My real inner name is my heart's
Climbing aspiration-mountain.My real outer name is my life's
Spreading dedication-fountain. ```Behold!
I am no longerIn my mind's doubt-prison.
I am now in my heart'sFaith-kingdom.
```May my aspiration-life
Be found betweenThe blessingful dictates
Of the inner worldAnd the cheerful and full
AcceptanceOf the outer world.
```Every day without fail
From Heaven my heart importsGod's Forgiveness
And from earth my heart exportsMy gratitude.
```My Lord,
Every day do give me the capacityTo offer a new promise
In my obedience-life to YouAnd my surrender-heart to You.
```My mind feasts
On the newspapers.My heart feasts
On the Bible. ```God cries
When I run away from Him.God laughs and laughs
When I try to hide from Him. ```From:Sri Chinmoy,God's Compassion-Eye and my happiness-heart, Agni Press, 1994
