Try to love spirituality.Your outer life will be
Surprisingly strengthened.Your inner life will be
Completely satisfied. ```My Lord, do bless me every morning
To wake at dawnWith my flying soul-bird.
```Each aspiration-heart
Has to remain awakeAnd be always eager
To run towards God. ```This morning during my meditation
I had a glimpse of my soulFor the first time.
Never before have I seenAnything so beautiful.
```My Lord’s Forgiveness-Sun
I always seeInside my aspiration-heart.
```Aspire sleeplessly.
God’s AffectionYou are bound to receive
Endlessly. ```The rising sun
Commands meTo go out quickly.
```The setting sun
Commands meTo come in soulfully.
```In God’s Heart-Eye
A gratitude-heartCan make no mistake.
```To please my Lord Beloved Supreme
I have decidedTo break my aspiration-record
Every single day. ```Although desire-illness
Is fatal.It can be curable.
```According to the human mind,
Perfection and suspicionAre perfect synonyms.
```The divine freedom can live
Only inside the breathOf the aspiration-heart.
```If a seeker studies only two lessons —
Obedience and gratitude —Then he can easily be
A choice instrumentOf our Lord Supreme.
```If you can sing detachment-song well,
Then God will teach you how to singYour attachment-song for God.
```Self-confidence
BlossomsIn the heart of selflessness.
```The surrender-door
Is always wide openTo the perfection-seeker.
```The strength of pride
Must eventually surrenderTo the power of humility.
```For a genuine seeker,
Any mind-bookIs not worth reading.
```It is extremely easy
To baffle HeavenWith our stupidity-mind.
```There are many enemies.
Cynicism remainsUnparalleled.
```Self-sacrifice
Is by farThe best safeguard.
```I make the fastest progress
Only when I becomeThe hush of my silence-meditation.
```The life that is afraid
Of challengesWill definitely end in failure.
```Any aspiration
Will eventually reachThe highest heights.
```My Supreme, my Supreme,
My Supreme!Each time I lose my soul’s
Adamantine will power,I go away from Your Satisfaction-Heart
At least a thousand miles. ```My Supreme, my Supreme,
My Supreme!I have been praying to You
To fulfil all my desires –Not one, not two, not three, not four,
Not five, not six, not seven, not eight,Not nine –
But countless desires. ```Now I am praying to You, my Supreme,
To fulfil only one desireTo make me happy
And the rest of the desires please, pleaseNever, never, never fulfil.
```My only prayer-desire to You,
My Supreme,Is to keep Your golden Footprints
Forever and foreverInside my aspiration-heart.
```The human love says to the world:
You are mine.I am your Lord.
You must obey me all the time. ```The divine love says to the world:
I am yours.I am your oneness-heart.
To make you happy is all I want. ```My Supreme, my Supreme,
My Supreme!Do make the tears and smiles
Of my gratitude-heart absolutely pureSo that they can lovingly, devotedly,
Unreservedly and self-givinglyFollow You wherever You go.
```O my mind,
When are you going to realiseThat there is nothing in this entire world
As undivine as you are? ```My mind,
How do you dare to suspectEven God’s unconditional Love
For you? ```O God-disobedience-seeker,
For you there is no cradle;For you there is only a grave
Which is imminent! ```My Lord says to me,
“My child, patience, patience, patience!You are not going to fail Me indefinitely.
There shall come a timeWhen you will most surprisingly
Please Me in My own Way.Patience, My child, patience.”
```Finally,
All my heart’s sorrowsAre hushed into God-Infinity’s Peace.
```In how many ways God gives us
Golden opportunitiesTo make Him happy.
That meansTo make ourselves really happy!
```But we do not take
Even one way seriouslyBecause we have our own ways.
We want to go in a different wayTo the same destination.
```God says,
“Yes, the destination can be the sameBut, my child, I have to wait for you
For Eternity and EternityIf you do not follow the way
I want you to follow.Be kind to me. Follow My Way.”
```When you see your Master’s
Sadness-eyes,You must realise
That you are no longer makingAny progress
In your spiritual life. ```When you feel your Master’s
Sadness-heart,That means you have given up
The spiritual life,Although you are still in his boat.
```There is only one right question:
Do I really love my Master,Do I?
```You may not see
Anything significant in your life,But if the Master sees
Something significant in your life,Then have implicit faith in him.
```The way your Master is proud
Of you,You, too, try to be proud
Of your Master. ```The mind can offer endless excuses
Why it does not need God,But, O seeker, live in the heart,
And you are bound to see and feelWithout God
There can be no real meaning in life. ```The only thing desirable
In human lifeIs God’s Compassion-Eye.
```In silence only
The fulness of DivinityAbides.
```We can enjoy the fragrance
Of Heaven’s CompassionOnly when our dedication
Becomes soulfully sincere and pure. ```O my Master,
How is it that I still hurt youWhen I feel
That I love you only? ```If you treasure
Your feelings of unworthiness,Then even God’s Presence
In your aspiration-heartAnd dedication-life
Will be of no avail. ```Every day
A flood of tears is necessaryTo please God
In His own Way. ```If we do not please God,
Then every day we may haveA painful experience of dissatisfaction,
Utter dissatisfaction. ```Self-sacrifice
Is the only languageThat an aspiration-heart
Has to learn. ```Every day
My Lord Supreme asks me to enjoyThe fragrance of my heart-home.
```The human in me says:
“How can I realise God?”The divine in me says:
“Why am I not realising God?” ```My soul has taught my heart
Only one thing:God-realisation is not only possible,
But inevitable. ```There is no difference
Between an unconditional surrenderAnd an everlasting freedom.
```O my God-gratitude-heart-garden,
I live IN you,But God lives FOR you.
```When my heart talks
In silence,My Lord Supreme
Is the first listener. ```O my mind,
Do not preach,Do not teach.
Just learn and learn and learn. ```God is blossoming every day,
Every hour,Inside your ever-widening
Wisdom-light. ```Be careful!
If all your expectationsAre fulfilled,
Your spiritual lifeMay suffer degradations
Beyond measure. ```Before death approaches,
Can you not be of boundless serviceTo your Inner Pilot?
```He who approaches God
Either diplomatically or cleverlyWill meet with
Destruction-frustration. ```He who wishes to meet God
Lovingly, soulfully and self-givinglyWill before long be
A choice instrument of God. ```Only the God-loving seeker
Who sleeplessly prays to GodAnd meditates on God
Will have the dreamOf the ever-transcending Beyond.
```When I say to God,
“My Lord, I have given up,”My Lord immediately declares Himself
A total failure. ```When I pray,
I know that I am doingThe right thing.
When I meditate,I feel that I am becoming
The right person:A choice instrument
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme. ```Neither feasting or fasting
Can make us realise God.It is only God’s Compassion in action
That can make us realise God. ```A God-seeker
Knows the Truth.A God-lover
Becomes the Truth itself. ```During our meditation,
We must compel our mindTo dive deep into tranquility-sea.
```We need an adamantine will power
To bridge overThe temptation-sea.
```Just because
We cannot see,We are not entitled to doubt.
```Just because
We cannot feel,We are not obliged to disbelieve.
```A self-effacement-life
IsA God-enlightenment-soul.
```The compassion-plane
WaitsFor everybody.
```The justice-train
WaitsFor nobody.
```When pride-enemy
Comes in,The joy-friend immediately
Leaves us. ```There are many kinds
Of punishments,But the Master’s withdrawal-punishment
Is most severe. ```If your outer life is poor in money-power,
No harm.Your inner life must needs be rich
In gratitude-smiles. ```There is only one thing
I must preserve in my life:My gratitude-heart-breath.
```My mind’s ingratitude-thorns
Make even GodHomeless.
```Aspiration knows no end.
So should beOur possession-renunciation.
```If we take shelter
In our pleasure-life,Then how can God treasure us?
```Ambition is not aspiration.
With ambition we go upTo show our supremacy.
With aspiration we go upTo offer our intimacy.
```The Sweetness of God
Satisfies me infinitely moreThan the Vastness of God.
```God comes
To our immediate assistanceWhen we challenge our desire-life.
```If you are single-hearted,
God will nourish your inner lifeAnd lengthen your outer life.
```You have no idea
How much you do for mankindWhen you love God unconditionally,
Even for a fleeting moment. ```If you judge yourself wisely
And divinely,You will liberate yourself
From the shackles of ignorance. ```If you are indulgent
To your life,You entangle yourself
Ruthlessly. ```If you are near to God the Creator,
How can you be awayFrom God the Creation?
```A mind of discipline
And a heart of aspirationAlone can light the path.
```The past is not worth
Cherishing,Not even mentioning.
```Be a purity-heart
And a self-giving lifeToday.
```Be always
PreparedFor your Master-Lord.
```Be prepared always
To say “good-bye”To ignorance-night.
```A gratitude-heart
Has the capacity to reachThe farthest beyond.
```Ingratitude
Is at once dangerousAnd poisonous.
```O my desire-life,
Before you approach me,I have the capacity to run away.
```What is faith?
It is my love-expansionFor my Lord Supreme.
```My Lord, may I have
A soulfulness-heartWith blossoming bliss.
```My simplicity-mind
AndMy sincerity-heart
Are keeping me in direct contactWith my Lord Supreme.
```My Lord Beloved Supreme,
Your Compassion-Eye is closer to meThan my own breath.
```My Lord,
Not frequently, but incessantly,Do enter into all my activities.
```A Godless life
Is bound to arriveAt a shoreless shore.
```I call it my gratitude.
My Lord Supreme calls itHis great Festival.
```May my devotion-life
Before long burst intoMy soulful surrender-flower-beauty.
```Each time I disobey God,
Sooner than at onceI meet with catastrophe.
```May this universe
Be flooded withHumanity’s God-gratitude-hearts.
```There is only one thing
That everybody needs,And that thing is to displace doubt
From one’s thoughts. ```Only an optimistic mind
Can eventuallySucceed.
```The address
Of God’s HeartIs Infinity’s Silence.
```The address
Of God’s EyeIs Eternity’s Vision.
```O my mind,
You must not speculate.Your speculation is bound to meet
With frustration. ```A hesitation-mind can never succeed
In either the inner world of aspirationOr the outer world of dedication.
```May my outer life be
As surrendering to God’s WillAs my soul is.
```No book knowledge
Can ever substituteFor the living presence
Of a living Master. ```When we pray to God
Self-givingly,God is full of sweet Whispers.
```God employs my surrender-heart
And my oneness-lifeFor His daily use.
```The soul’s
God-obedience-heightCan never be scaled.
```My love of God
Considerably addsTo my spiritual life.
```My surrender to God
Multiplies the beauty and fragranceOf my spirituality.
```My Lord Supreme,
Will my mind ever be readyTo receive You and fulfil You
In Your own Way? ```Alas, there should be a few special ways
To drive away powerfullyAll temptation-distractions.
```Our heart’s aspiration-lion
Must keep on roaringAll the time.
```Self-discovery-effort
Is at once challengingAnd fulfilling.
```No delight
Is as fulfillingAs our God-manifestation-delight.
```We all must do only one thing:
We all must expandOur ceaseless self-offering-horizons.
```God-willingness and God-eagerness:
These two subjectsWe must thoroughly study.
```God-Forgiveness
Shall forever remainInvaluable and unparalleled.
```We must believe in God
When He tells us thatEach individual soul
Is His favourite for its uniqueness. ```Human accomplishments
Will be buriedIn oblivion.
```Divine accomplishments
Will forever shineIn the Heart of Eternity.
```The beauty of Heaven
Is indeed insideOur aspiration-devotion-heart.
```Nothing is as meaningful and fruitful
As planting oneselfIn God’s Heart-Garden.
```My Lord Supreme,
I have only one prayer:May my gratitude-heart
Breathe to the end of time. ```God-manifestation-expedition
Must be guileless, relentless,Sleepless and breathless.
```A God-hungry life
Has to be self-givingWithout fail.
```O my mind, there shall come a time
When you will missGod-manifestation-opportunities
If you have no longing for them. ```Time never makes anybody
A saint or a sinner.It all depends on the good deeds
And misdeedsOf a human being.
```When I deeply meditate,
My Lord Supreme comes to meAs a Rainbow-Blessing.
```Each seeker must try
To make his life the banquetOf God’s highest Will.
```My heart’s true devotion
Makes my Lord SupremeBreathlessly happy.
```My Lord wants
Only one thing from me.He wants me to entertain Him
All the time. ```The outer teacher tells me
That he can make meUnmistakably great.
```The inner teacher tells me
That I am definitely a choice instrumentOf my Lord Supreme.
```You are telling me that
You have nothing to do, O my mind.If so, then start immediately
Burning God-gratitude-incense. ```You must forget the mind.
You must remember the soul.Do not reverse the course.
```Our heart’s sincerity
And mind’s determinationKnow the direct route
To God’s Palace. ```Only our Lord’s Tears can prevent us
From destroying the worldWith our ignorance-pride.
```My Lord, save me, save me!
I am sinking fast, very fast,Beneath the weight of my mind-burden.
```My Master’s sadness-tears
Have transformedMy negativity-mind.
```We call them
Our imperfections.God calls them
His constant Self-Preparation. ```My Lord’s Joy knows no bounds
When I offer a gratitude-concertTo my aspiration-oneness-friends.
```Our God-obedience
Saves us from the tear-floodsOf our hearts.
```Only when we pray and meditate
Soulfully,God allows us to speak
To His dearest Child, Silence. ```Our obedience
Is our floweringIn our Lord’s Heart-Garden.
```Where else is happiness,
If not insideMy sleepless love for God?
```My heart-dependence
On GodIs my life-confidence-reality.
```O my mind, delay not!
Wake up, wake upTo our Lord’s Smile-Blossoms.
```Each heart is blessed
With a Heaven-soaringOneness-smile.

How long can I fly highOn false hope-wings?
```My mind, you must cultivate
And spread cheerfulness all whereFor your total transformation.
```May my heart fly high,
Very high, on hope-wingsFor the progress of my aspiration-life.
```Devotion-songs
Are meant only forThe heart-musicians.
```A heart-climber
Is a God-fulfillerIn a very special way.
```May my mind surrender to God
The way my mind compelsMy heart to surrender.
```God tells every seeker
That he needs only one thing:A doubt-moving faith-existence.
```My mind’s cheerfulness
Is the very beginning of my life’sAll-satisfying fulness.
```My self-giving life is indeed
A soul-flowering songOf my heart.
```As there is no joy in inferiority,
Even so,There is no joy in superiority.
```There is joy and fulfilment
Only in the heartOf equality.
```God does not want me to become
The dust of His FeetTo please Him.
```God wants me to become
An adamantine will powerTo fulfil and please Him
In His own Way. ```If your heart is the possessor
Of a sleepless and breathless cry,Then God-realisation will not remain
A far cry. ```God smiles and dances with Joy
When I singMy gratitude-heart-songs.
```Every day if you sing and play
With your own heart-child,Then God will garland you
Most proudly. ```If you all the time think
Of others’ injustices to you,When will you have time
To think of God, pray to GodAnd meditate on God?
```It seems that distractions
Can never be separatedFrom our human life.
```God sleeplessly
Inspires meTo aspire.
```I breathlessly aspire
To please God onlyIn His own Way.
```Alas, will the doubting mind
Ever surrenderTo the God-loving heart?
```I shall keep my heart-temple
Always free fromThe pretense of my mind.
```My Lord, do use me to fulfil
Any purpose of YoursAt any time You want to.
```To make God cry
With my heart-tearsIs indeed an easy task.

Is taking care of it lovinglyAnd compassionately.
```What I need is a new mind
With the beauty and fragranceOf a fresh flower.
```In beauty,
My prayerful gratitude-heart-tearsHave no parallel.
```I need only one opportunity
To love my Lord SupremeInfinitely more.
```What is wrong with me?
How is it that I still cannotTerminate my friendship
With my God-doubting mind? ```Divinity blessingfully
Loves to enjoySweet whispers.
```Humanity openly
Loves to enjoyLoud thunder-applause.
```If you listen to your body,
Vital and mind,You will find God nowhere.
```If you listen to your heart,
God will not only be visible all where,But He will be all for you.
```The mind suspects the beauty
Of a heart-flowerWhile counting the petals
Of the flower. ```At times God does not listen
To our prayersBecause what we pray for
Is so insignificant. ```Those who obey God’s Will,
God will naturally haveA very high opinion of.

Builds me.God the Compassion
Shields me. ```When we pray to God self-givingly,
He tells us that He will not allowAny undivine forces to triumph over us.
```Try again and again.
Do not give up.There shall come a time
When God HimselfWill come to your rescue.
```When wrong forces attack you,
Do not run for your life.Accept the challenge immediately
And demolish their pride. ```In life only one thing matters —
Peace.Peace, once we have,
We need nothing more. ```Do not enjoy your self-pity-life.
You can love yourselfAnd turn yourself into
A choice instrument of God. ```Not whenever you can,
But always,You must try to enjoy
Your Master-Lord’s company. ```When we pray to God the Forgiveness,
He forgives us.But do we really have the capacity
To forgive ourselves? ```For me, my meditation
Has always been one thing:Good news.
```God loves us too much
To let ignorance defeat usIn the battlefield of life.
```God loves me
When I love Him.But He loves me more
When I sincerely need Him. ```Ignorance-night
Does what it wants to do:It tries to humiliate me.
I do what I must do:I try to illuminate it.
```The mind-religions are many.
The heart-religion is only one:Constant love of God.
```Self-promotion
Is the betrayalOf my self-confidence.
```My Lord tells me
That even if I chooseThe abysmal abyss,
He will not give up on me. ```My Lord tells me
That the love that does not stopIs the love I need.
```My Lord Supreme,
I do not wantA harvest of success.
```What I need, my Lord,

```My Lord wants from me
Not my powerful life,But my faithful heart.
```Every day my Lord Supreme
Magnifies the beauty, intensityAnd power
Of my willingness. ```Our faith in God
Is, indeed, the real sunshineIn our spiritual life.
```Our blossoming faith in God
Can easily shatterAll our mind-doubts.
```If we pray to God
And meditate on God,Then our life’s responsibility-weights
Become lighter and lighter. ```Aspiration-flames
Illumine the desire-future-lifeOf every seeker.
```A cheerful heart
Is definitely a short-cutTo God-realisation.
```God loves each and every human being,
But He loves His world-peace-dreamersInfinitely more.
```God gave me a confidence-heart.
Alas, I am replacing itWith an insecurity-mind.
```Let me say good-bye
To ignorance-night.Let me not say good-bye
To my ignorance-friends,For it is my bounden duty
To flood them with light. ```If you want to make yourself happy,
Then take your desire-lifeAs a long-buried life.
```My Lord teaches me day by day
How to become thirstyFor Nectar-Delight.
```Height after height we scale
When we start walking speedilyOn surrender-road.
```If we do not have
Burning aspiration,We may drown

The moment I entered intoMy faith-heart-temple.
```There is no such thing as sacrifice.
It is only the fulfilmentOf God’s Oneness-Will.
```Before I go to sleep every night,
I pray to my Lord Supreme to bless meWith a sweetness-hope-dream.
```Each seeker
Has a special role to playIn God’s Cosmic Drama.
```All that began
With our inner divinityWill fruitfully end
In our outer divinity. ```My Lord Supreme,
Do give me the capacity to climbThe zenith-height of forgiveness
Every day. ```The mind disturbs us
Because we are afraid of invokingThe light of our soul.
```God asks us to do only one thing:
He wants our mind to be plungedInto the sea of Light and Delight.
```There is only one life —
The life ofThe Song Universal.
```Depression is dangerous.

Is his God-doubtingAnd self-doubting mind.
```What is fear?
Fear is somethingThat enslaves us.
```What is fear?
Fear is somethingThat compels our courage
To starve to death. ```Question your doubting mind,
Not just one time,But a million times.
```Never question

```When I am kind to myself,
God’s Love for meIncreases immensely.

Exactly the way I watch overYour inner life.”
```Two things my Lord does not want
To have from me:Complaint and explanation.
```What is my Lord doing?

```My love of God
Is the only perfect joyIn my heart.
```O my doubting mind,
My heart and I vehemently refuseTo be confused by you.
```God tells me that He will allow
The mind to do the judgingOnly after it has become
Absolutely perfect. ```Every day God asks us
To be self-giving.How can we think
That todayWill be any different?
```There is only one boss
In your inner life and outer life,And that is God.
```The mind’s negativity
Can paralyseThe aspiring heart-body.
```My Beloved Supreme loves me.
Therefore,He needs me.
```I need my Lord Supreme.

```My Lord Supreme,
No matter what You do,I promise I shall never give up on You.
```When the hostile forces
Take full advantage of the mind,Confusion takes away the light

```To increase strength, inner and outer,
What we need is more faith,And nothing else.

If you want to find GodInside all your divine activities.
```Yesterday my heart
Was very dearTo God.
```Today I see my heart
Nearer than the nearestTo God.
```God-realisation is an achievement
Infinitely more significantThan any other achievement.
```A true aspiration-heart
Does not worry.It only tries to hurry up everything
So that it can receiveNew blessingful messages from Above.
```When you accept the spiritual life
Sincerely,You will appreciate your own life’s
Turning point. ```I fear God’s
Cosmic Eye,But not God’s
Cosmic Heart. ```The soul-journey
Is a journeyFar beyond the horizons.

Is there any dayThat You accept my eagerness?
Why, why, why? ```“My child, your eagerness is empty
Of cheerfulness and soulfulness.Therefore,

```God’s God-Hour

Because my lifeIs a surrender-heart

But immediately rejectsAnd discards it.
```God tells my vital
That because He isHis Eternity’s Tolerance,
My vital survives. ```God tells my mind
That because He isHis Infinity’s Compassion,

An endless Compassion-SmileFrom God?
```God wants my silent
Surrender-power and surrender-delightTo increase immensely every day.
```The future of religion

```The unaspiring mind
Has been enjoyingFor a very long time
The fulness of falsehood,Not unconsciously but consciously.
```The difference between me and my mind
Is this:My mind is a greedy possessor,
And I am a happy renouncer. ```Criticism can never create anything
Beautiful, powerful, soulfulAnd fruitful.

```I am disappointed
Not only in the restlessness of my mind,But also in the wastefulness of my life.
```Divinity’s Victory

```Surrender
Comes from within,And not from without.
```Surrender
Comes from the silenceOf our inner discipline
And from our inner light. ```Real surrender
Never comes from outer commandsOr outer lectures.

I have suffered so muchIn your hands.
```My mind,
You must now endYour fault-finding
And excuse-giving behaviour. ```God is always ready
To take our problems.Alas, why do we not let Him
Worry about our problems —Why?
```I was happy, my Lord,
When I was in Heaven.I know it was You who made me happy.
```My Lord, when I was an infant,
I was happy.I know it was You who made me happy.
```My Lord, I am so unhappy now.
Why, why?Can You not once more make me happy
The way You made me happyWhen I was in my infant-life
And when I was in my Heaven-life? ```The outer glories are futile.
The sooner we know it,The better for us,
For our inner God-surrenderingAnd God-fulfilling life.
```Surrender is the master key
To our aspiration, realisationAnd God-manifestation.
```Each time I say that
God is for God’s sakeAnd not for my sake,
My spirituality is only for God’s sake,I immediately become
The possessorOf an overflow of divine energy.
```I whistle my heart’s songs
To make myselfPrayerful and soulful
And to give myselfGod-satisfying joy.
```I want to find myself all the time
Between my heart’s aspiration-tearsAnd my life’s dedication-smiles.
```The dream of the soul
Is always beautiful, indeed.But the reality of the heart
Is infinitely more beautifulAnd more fruitful.
```God tells me
To tell the whole worldThat my God-surrender-heart
Knows everything, feels everythingAnd becomes everything.
```If we do not aspire
And live only the desire-life,Then we are bound to remain
In the tentacles of the outer world. ```When we see God’s Victory
Here, there and all-where,God’s Compassion-Eye
And Satisfaction-Heart follow us. ```Perfection does not
Have to remainAlways a far cry.
```Perfection can be within our easy reach
If God-satisfactionIs our heart’s only cry.
```If I do not have
A love-smiling heart,Then there is every possibility
That I shall fail. ```My Lord Supreme commands me
To sing with HimAnd to smile at Him.
He tells me not to ask Him why. ```My self-discovery-quest
Is rapidly bloomingAnd shall most rapidly be blossoming.
```Meditation-depth
Is, indeed, the shortest distanceBetween the God-seeker and God.
```We can never fly on the wings of ecstasy
If we constantly feed our curiosity-mindAnd expectation-heart.
```Each time we increase our faith
In God and in ourselves,We open up a new door
Of God-manifestation-opportunity. ```The oneness-cries
Of genuine God-seekersBecome eventually the fulness-smiles
Of God-discoverers. ```Mine is a God-loving
And God-fulfilling faithThat will always remain unfaded.
```God is
Extremely fond ofOur child-smiling eyes.
```Patience is of paramount importance
To put an end to the insanitiesOf our desire-life.
```When all hearts are tuned
By God Himself,Only then are we able to enjoy
The Peace, Beauty and DelightOf God’s universal Existence.
```Each moment
Is blessedBy God Himself.
```Therefore, we must feel
Our inner purityAnd
Our inner confidenceTo manifest our Lord Supreme on earth.
```Meditation tells us that
We do not have to liveOn expectations.
```Meditation tells us that
We do not have to liveOn hopes.
```Meditation tells us that
We can liveOn constantly blossoming,
Illumining and fulfilling realities. ```Today’s meditation-lovers
Tomorrow becomeGod-discoverers.
```Do not fly out of the outer world,
But remain in the outer worldWith your oneness-sympathy,
Oneness-concern and oneness-affection. ```You will see, God will give you
What you actually need,And also He will fulfil you
Far beyond your imagination. ```O my mind,
I am begging you again and againTo drop away from the desire-life.
```How long can you remain
Unsatisfied and unfulfilled,O mind, flooded with stupidity?
```Meditation not only leads us
To the world of fortune,But also makes us
Citizens of fortune-land. ```No mind,
With its brooding doubts,Can ever dare to cloud
The brightest brightness of our soul. ```Patience,
PatienceIs of paramount importance.
```We cannot force
Our heart-lotus to blossomTo feed our sweet will.
No,We have to wait
For our Lord’s choice Hour. ```I tell my life,
“My life, take up, take upA new God-aspiration
And God-satisfaction-course.” ```Be not a fool!
No spiritual valuesCan ever be obsolete.
```There shall come a time
When you will feelThat you have become
The very nature of God-readiness,God-willingness
And God-eagerness-cries. ```Nobody ever likes your exclusiveness,
Not even our Compassion-floodedLord Supreme.
```Alas, we are so blind
That we do not knowThat because of our doubting
And suspecting mind,Our life is tied by the fetters
Of ignorance-night. ```Never compromise,
Never compromise,Even if you are under severe criticism.
```Compromise
Is notGod’s Way.
```Illumination in self-realisation
AndSelf-realisation in illumination
Are what we all need for the fulfilmentOf our aspiration-life.
```A self-giving life,
A God-loving heartAnd
A God-serving supreme necessityCan bless us with the Beauty-Fragrance
Of our Lord Supreme. ```Since we have chosen the path of Truth,
Since we have chosen God,We have to feel
That He who has createdOur fellow human beings
Has infinitely more Love for themThan we have.
```Sorrow can be transformed into light,
Light can be transformed into delight,If so is the Will of God.
```To expedite the Will of God,
We must become a sea of sincerity-mindAnd a sea of purity-heart.
```Our Lord Beloved Supreme
Never delays, never deniesGranting us all equal opportunities —
Never! ```My Lord sheds bitter tears
When I tell Him even playfullyThat I am unfit to pray,
To meditate and to please Him. ```To say that you are not ready
For the spiritual lifeIs to be on the wrong track of the mind.
```God definitely
Does not want you to browseIn the warehouse of your past lives.
```God wants you to roam in
And enjoy the beauty and fragrance ofYour present heart-garden.
```If we do not break asunder
Our attachment-chains,Then excruciating pangs
Will never leave us. ```There is no other way
To create a better worldThan to surrender to God’s Will.
```Desire is false.
Whatever desire prompts us to doIs false.
```Whatever we desire
In desire-lifeIs false.
```Whatever we derive
From desire-lifeIs all false.
```My Lord,
Why do You loveMy heart-cries and life-tears?
```“My child, your heart-cries
And life-tearsMake you one with purity,
And this purity is the short-cutTo My Immortality’s Land.”
```My Lord Beloved Supreme,
Yesterday,Out of Your infinite Forgiveness,
You chose me. ```My Lord Supreme,
Today,Out of Your infinite Compassion,
You chose for me. ```For a God-doubter,
God remains far,Very far.
```For a self-doubter,
God remains infinitely,Infinitely, infinitely farther.
```A God-seeker and God-lover
Can find God instantly,Provided his heart-tears
Are absolutely sincere and genuine. ```Humanity is nothing
But one heart, one breathAnd one heartbeat.
Therefore, humanity’s God-realisationIs definite and indispensable.
```God’s biggest frustration
Is not in our lack of illuminationBut our lack of self-abnegation.
```Every morning
I challenge my doubting mind,Conquer it, and place it at the feet
Of my God-loving, God-aspiringAnd God-offering heart.
```Self-importance
Is definitely the beginningOf my self-destruction.
```Why do I worry, why, why?
Precisely because I do not believeIn God-dependence, God-reliance,
God-cheerfulness and God-fulnessIn God’s own Way, in my own life.
```We must
Listen toOur inner dictates.
```Our inner dictates sing
Only God’s Victory-SongsIn and through our life.
```Science wants
Either to deny GodOr to bind God.
```Spirituality wants
To publicise GodAnd materialise God
Here on earth. ```I tell you once and for all,
Your existence in the vitalIs temporary.
```You can never stay permanently
In your vital,For God’s Light
Is bound to enter into youThrough your God-oneness-heart.
```The moment unwillingness
Entered into my mind,Cheerfulness said good-bye to me,
And added that it has more friends.Therefore, it has to go and it must,
Alas, alas. ```The mind thinks
That it knowsEverything.
```The heart feels
That it feelsEverything.
```O my mind, call on your heart.
It will sing for you God-songs,And you will one day enjoy it
Far more than you can imagine. ```Any uncomely thought
Can never flyIn our heart’s expanding sky.
```O my mind, you think you have
All the world-answers.One day you will realise
The height of your stupidity. ```O my mind, are you not embarrassed
That all your predicationsHave proved to be absolutely false?
```How can my progress-delight stop
If I continue to loveMy Beloved Supreme
Every day, every hour, every minuteAnd every second?
```Depression is
My inner life’sUnconscious poverty-confession.
```My Lord,
You neverFail me.
```My Lord,
It is I who fail YouWith my constant expectation
And frustration. ```I am ready to say good-bye
To each and everyoneAnd each and everything,
But never to my heart’sStreaming tears and climbing cries.
```My Lord,
I prayed to YouAnd told You that I am all ready
To accept my fate. ```My Lord,
You are telling me no,I must challenge fate,
I must conquer fate.You are all for me.
```When I cherish evil thoughts,
Undivine thoughts,God immediately leaves
My heart-shrine. ```My Lord,
They tell me thatI do not care for You.
```Is it true, my Lord?
If I do not care for You,Whom do I care for?
```No, my Lord,
You are the only one I care for,You are the only one I live for.
```My mind,
Always try to look within,Dive within.
```Do not think
Your opinionIs the only opinion.
```Each individual
Must have an opinionOf his own.
```The desiring life
Is the birthplaceOf all human sorrows.
```May I please
My Lord SupremeBy placing the result of all my actions
At His Feet. ```I smile
Because my heartSweetly whispers.
```The purity-heart-armour
HasNo parallel.
```The compassion of the heart
Can easily turnThe aggression of the vital
To dust. ```At times
The reality is no matchFor false fear.
```The fear of the mind
EnslavedMy heart.
```The courage of the soul
Has liberatedMy entire life.
```I am looking
For my heartTo cry for God.
```My heart is looking for me
To come and sitAt God’s Compassion-flooded Feet.
```My Lord, I need to feel
Your Heart first,And only then I need to see
Your Face. ```Aspire, dedicate
And surrender —God will be all yours.
```Self-doubt
Is the most formidable adversaryOf a God-lover.
```May each and every aspiration-heart
Be brighter than the brightestAnd purer than the purest.
```The language of the heart
Is derived fromGod’s Compassion-Height.
```No heart will ever know
How bitterThe mind can be.
```No mind will ever know
How goodThe heart can be.
```The great souls come into the world
To reverse the courseOf ignorance-current.
```We walk along the aspiration-road
To enter intoThe realisation-palace.
```We must try to remember God
Even when our minds are inThe abysmal ignorance-abyss.
```The mind’s doubt-disease
DisfiguresThe entire being.
```We relinquish
AngerTo establish peace.
```For your ceaselessly selfless service
You are going to get glowing praisesFrom God Himself.
```Doubt does have the rare capacity
To causeA sudden spiritual death.
```The aspiration-heart
Must be fed every dayWith faith.
```There is no ignorance-ill
That cannot be cured byDetermination-fire.
```What am I doing?
I am groping and gropingTo grasp my Lord Beloved Supreme.
```What we all need
Is a unity-heart’sMultiplicity-life.
```Divinity abides
In its fulnessOnly in a God-surrendering life.
```The inner beauty
AndThe outer plenitude
Must go together. ```Despair-fever
Is indeedA fatal disease.
```Together
Life and death enjoyTheir inner composition.
```Life and death
EnjoyTheir outer opposition.
```A God-listener enjoys
God’s infinite BlissIn infinite ways.
```God is so near.
Yet our hearts cannot clasp GodBecause of our division-loving minds.
```Mother Earth,
I am extremely proudOf your hope-heart-tears.
```Father Heaven,
I am extremely proudOf your promise-soul-smiles.
```Every day my heart and I
Sound our victory-trumpetOver the mind’s doubt.
```When man is man’s
Progress-song,God is God’s
Success-Dance. ```Something is definitely wrong with me
If I do not lose my breathWhen I look at my Lord Supreme.
```My Lord Supreme,
My heart, my mind, my vitalAnd even my body are now eager
To be Your faithful instruments. ```In my Lord’s Eye
I must see the mirrorOf my aspiration-existence.
```Never allow the frightening eyes
Of the hostile forcesTo frighten you.
```My Lord,
I am not asking YouTo forgive me at this very moment.
I am asking YouIf You will ever forgive me.
```To me, any depression
Is unwantedAnd fathomless.
```My Lord, my mind is ready,
My life is willingAnd my heart is eager
Only by Your Grace infinite. ```My Lord Beloved
Does not mindWhen I overestimate my mind.
```My Lord Beloved
Does mindWhen I underestimate my heart.
```My doubting mind,
One day time will proveThat my loving heart
Is always right. ```When I say that I love God only,
The cosmic gods immediately flyMy Lord’s Victory-Banner.
```My Lord, I cannot,
But You can.Do take away my ruthless pride.
```My Lord, not when I look at You,
But when I sit at Your Feet,I discover that I belong
Only to You. ```The tears of the aspiration-heart
Are extremely, extremelyBeautiful.
```The smiles of the realisation-soul
Are extremely, extremelyBlissful.
```Mind-crucifixion
Is undoubtedlyAn easy task.
```Mind-illumination
Is an extremelyDifficult task.
```My only message to You,
My Lord:I love to live only to please You.
```Real spirituality
Needs both patience-lightAnd speed-delight.
```If I am the culprit
In delaying my Lord’sWorld-transformation-Vision,
Then I shall kill myself. ```Only the eagerness
Of the heartCan act at a moment’s notice.
```Not to repeat God’s Name

```I tell my mind
That it does not have toGive up anything.
```I tell my heart,
“Wake up, my heart, wake up!You have a very long way to go
To reach God’s Golden Palace.” ```He who is divinely wise
Will definitely try to maximiseHis inner life-wealth
AndHis outer life-satisfaction.
```A happy life
AndA worried mind
Are not visible together. ```Desire-temptation
Never waitsFor an invitation.
```To my greatest joy,
You fell downOnly to climb higher,
Almost the highest. ```My Master’s Compassion-Eye
Is my heart’sOnly hope.
```There are many
Ignorance-emergency exits.The seeker must seriously
And sincerely look for them. ```God’s Love-Delight is only where
Our minds are sincereAnd our hearts are pure.
```On aspiration-wings
The speed can beStaggering.
```Peace-dreamers’ forward,

```The heart begs God
For goodnessOccasionally.
```The life begs God
For fulnessRarely.
```I forget to beg God
For perfectionPermanently.
```Each God-singing breath
Is a real threatTo death.
```When the mind
Gives lectures on sincerity,God laughs and laughs.
```When the heart
Speaks on purity,God cannot stop laughing.
```When the life
Speaks on perfection,God immediately leaves the audience.
```God expects
Each and every human lifeTo be a clarion call.
```God expects
Each and every human beingTo have a flower-purity-heart.
```God expects

```God proudly treasures
