Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees, part 11

10001

```

Never try to understand spirituality.

Try to love spirituality.

Your outer life will be

Surprisingly strengthened.

Your inner life will be

Completely satisfied. ```

10002

```

My Lord, do bless me every morning

To wake at dawn

With my flying soul-bird.

```

10003

```

Each aspiration-heart

Has to remain awake

And be always eager

To run towards God. ```

10004

```

This morning during my meditation

I had a glimpse of my soul

For the first time.

Never before have I seen

Anything so beautiful.

```

10005

```

My Lord’s Forgiveness-Sun

I always see

Inside my aspiration-heart.

```

10006

```

Aspire sleeplessly.

God’s Affection

You are bound to receive

Endlessly. ```

10007

```

The rising sun

Commands me

To go out quickly.

```

10008

```

The setting sun

Commands me

To come in soulfully.

```

10009

```

In God’s Heart-Eye

A gratitude-heart

Can make no mistake.

```

10010

```

To please my Lord Beloved Supreme

I have decided

To break my aspiration-record

Every single day. ```

10011

```

Although desire-illness

Is fatal.

It can be curable.

```

10012

```

According to the human mind,

Perfection and suspicion

Are perfect synonyms.

```

10013

```

The divine freedom can live

Only inside the breath

Of the aspiration-heart.

```

10014

```

If a seeker studies only two lessons —

Obedience and gratitude —

Then he can easily be

A choice instrument

Of our Lord Supreme.

```

10015

```

If you can sing detachment-song well,

Then God will teach you how to sing

Your attachment-song for God.

```

10016

```

Self-confidence

Blossoms

In the heart of selflessness.

```

10017

```

The surrender-door

Is always wide open

To the perfection-seeker.

```

10018

```

The strength of pride

Must eventually surrender

To the power of humility.

```

10019

```

For a genuine seeker,

Any mind-book

Is not worth reading.

```

10020

```

It is extremely easy

To baffle Heaven

With our stupidity-mind.

```

10021

```

There are many enemies.

Cynicism remains

Unparalleled.

```

10022

```

Self-sacrifice

Is by far

The best safeguard.

```

10023

```

I make the fastest progress

Only when I become

The hush of my silence-meditation.

```

10024

```

The life that is afraid

Of challenges

Will definitely end in failure.

```

10025

```

Any aspiration

Will eventually reach

The highest heights.

```

10026

```

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. ```

10027

```

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. ```

10028

```

Now I am praying to You, my Supreme,

To fulfil only one desire

To make me happy

And the rest of the desires please, please

Never, never, never fulfil.

```

10029

```

My only prayer-desire to You,

My Supreme,

Is to keep Your golden Footprints

Forever and forever

Inside my aspiration-heart.

```

10030

```

The human love says to the world:

You are mine.

I am your Lord.

You must obey me all the time. ```

10031

```

The divine love says to the world:

I am yours.

I am your oneness-heart.

To make you happy is all I want. ```

10032

```

My Supreme, my Supreme,

My Supreme!

Do make the tears and smiles

Of my gratitude-heart absolutely pure

So that they can lovingly, devotedly,

Unreservedly and self-givingly

Follow You wherever You go.

```

10033

```

O my mind,

When are you going to realise

That there is nothing in this entire world

As undivine as you are? ```

10034

```

My mind,

How do you dare to suspect

Even God’s unconditional Love

For you? ```

10035

```

O God-disobedience-seeker,

For you there is no cradle;

For you there is only a grave

Which is imminent! ```

10036

```

My Lord says to me,

“My child, patience, patience, patience!

You are not going to fail Me indefinitely.

There shall come a time

When you will most surprisingly

Please Me in My own Way.

Patience, My child, patience.”

```

10037

```

Finally,

All my heart’s sorrows

Are hushed into God-Infinity’s Peace.

```

10038

```

In how many ways God gives us

Golden opportunities

To make Him happy.

That means

To make ourselves really happy!

```

10039

```

But we do not take

Even one way seriously

Because we have our own ways.

We want to go in a different way

To the same destination.

```

10040

```

God says,

“Yes, the destination can be the same

But, my child, I have to wait for you

For Eternity and Eternity

If you do not follow the way

I want you to follow.

Be kind to me. Follow My Way.”

```

10041

```

When you see your Master’s

Sadness-eyes,

You must realise

That you are no longer making

Any progress

In your spiritual life. ```

10042

```

When you feel your Master’s

Sadness-heart,

That means you have given up

The spiritual life,

Although you are still in his boat.

```

10043

```

There is only one right question:

Do I really love my Master,

Do I?

```

10044

```

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.

```

10045

```

The way your Master is proud

Of you,

You, too, try to be proud

Of your Master. ```

10046

```

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 feel

Without God

There can be no real meaning in life. ```

10047

```

The only thing desirable

In human life

Is God’s Compassion-Eye.

```

10048

```

In silence only

The fulness of Divinity

Abides.

```

10049

```

We can enjoy the fragrance

Of Heaven’s Compassion

Only when our dedication

Becomes soulfully sincere and pure. ```

10050

```

O my Master,

How is it that I still hurt you

When I feel

That I love you only? ```

10051

```

If you treasure

Your feelings of unworthiness,

Then even God’s Presence

In your aspiration-heart

And dedication-life

Will be of no avail. ```

10052

```

Every day

A flood of tears is necessary

To please God

In His own Way. ```

10053

```

If we do not please God,

Then every day we may have

A painful experience of dissatisfaction,

Utter dissatisfaction. ```

10054

```

Self-sacrifice

Is the only language

That an aspiration-heart

Has to learn. ```

10055

```

Every day

My Lord Supreme asks me to enjoy

The fragrance of my heart-home.

```

10056

```

The human in me says:

“How can I realise God?”

The divine in me says:

“Why am I not realising God?” ```

10057

```

My soul has taught my heart

Only one thing:

God-realisation is not only possible,

But inevitable. ```

10058

```

There is no difference

Between an unconditional surrender

And an everlasting freedom.

```

10059

```

O my God-gratitude-heart-garden,

I live IN you,

But God lives FOR you.

```

10060

```

When my heart talks

In silence,

My Lord Supreme

Is the first listener. ```

10061

```

O my mind,

Do not preach,

Do not teach.

Just learn and learn and learn. ```

10062

```

God is blossoming every day,

Every hour,

Inside your ever-widening

Wisdom-light. ```

10063

```

Be careful!

If all your expectations

Are fulfilled,

Your spiritual life

May suffer degradations

Beyond measure. ```

10064

```

Before death approaches,

Can you not be of boundless service

To your Inner Pilot?

```

10065

```

He who approaches God

Either diplomatically or cleverly

Will meet with

Destruction-frustration. ```

10066

```

He who wishes to meet God

Lovingly, soulfully and self-givingly

Will before long be

A choice instrument of God. ```

10067

```

Only the God-loving seeker

Who sleeplessly prays to God

And meditates on God

Will have the dream

Of the ever-transcending Beyond.

```

10068

```

When I say to God,

“My Lord, I have given up,”

My Lord immediately declares Himself

A total failure. ```

10069

```

When I pray,

I know that I am doing

The right thing.

When I meditate,

I feel that I am becoming

The right person:

A choice instrument

Of my Lord Beloved Supreme. ```

10070

```

Neither feasting or fasting

Can make us realise God.

It is only God’s Compassion in action

That can make us realise God. ```

10071

```

A God-seeker

Knows the Truth.

A God-lover

Becomes the Truth itself. ```

10072

```

During our meditation,

We must compel our mind

To dive deep into tranquility-sea.

```

10073

```

We need an adamantine will power

To bridge over

The temptation-sea.

```

10074

```

Just because

We cannot see,

We are not entitled to doubt.

```

10075

```

Just because

We cannot feel,

We are not obliged to disbelieve.

```

10076

```

A self-effacement-life

Is

A God-enlightenment-soul.

```

10077

```

The compassion-plane

Waits

For everybody.

```

10078

```

The justice-train

Waits

For nobody.

```

10079

```

When pride-enemy

Comes in,

The joy-friend immediately

Leaves us. ```

10080

```

There are many kinds

Of punishments,

But the Master’s withdrawal-punishment

Is most severe. ```

10081

```

If your outer life is poor in money-power,

No harm.

Your inner life must needs be rich

In gratitude-smiles. ```

10082

```

There is only one thing

I must preserve in my life:

My gratitude-heart-breath.

```

10083

```

My mind’s ingratitude-thorns

Make even God

Homeless.

```

10084

```

Aspiration knows no end.

So should be

Our possession-renunciation.

```

10085

```

If we take shelter

In our pleasure-life,

Then how can God treasure us?

```

10086

```

Ambition is not aspiration.

With ambition we go up

To show our supremacy.

With aspiration we go up

To offer our intimacy.

```

10087

```

The Sweetness of God

Satisfies me infinitely more

Than the Vastness of God.

```

10088

```

God comes

To our immediate assistance

When we challenge our desire-life.

```

10089

```

If you are single-hearted,

God will nourish your inner life

And lengthen your outer life.

```

10090

```

You have no idea

How much you do for mankind

When you love God unconditionally,

Even for a fleeting moment. ```

10091

```

If you judge yourself wisely

And divinely,

You will liberate yourself

From the shackles of ignorance. ```

10092

```

If you are indulgent

To your life,

You entangle yourself

Ruthlessly. ```

10093

```

If you are near to God the Creator,

How can you be away

From God the Creation?

```

10094

```

A mind of discipline

And a heart of aspiration

Alone can light the path.

```

10095

```

The past is not worth

Cherishing,

Not even mentioning.

```

10096

```

Be a purity-heart

And a self-giving life

Today.

```

10097

```

Be always

Prepared

For your Master-Lord.

```

10098

```

Be prepared always

To say “good-bye”

To ignorance-night.

```

10099

```

A gratitude-heart

Has the capacity to reach

The farthest beyond.

```

10100

```

Ingratitude

Is at once dangerous

And poisonous.

```

10101

```

O my desire-life,

Before you approach me,

I have the capacity to run away.

```

10102

```

What is faith?

It is my love-expansion

For my Lord Supreme.

```

10103

```

My Lord, may I have

A soulfulness-heart

With blossoming bliss.

```

10104

```

My simplicity-mind

And

My sincerity-heart

Are keeping me in direct contact

With my Lord Supreme.

```

10105

```

My Lord Beloved Supreme,

Your Compassion-Eye is closer to me

Than my own breath.

```

10106

```

My Lord,

Not frequently, but incessantly,

Do enter into all my activities.

```

10107

```

A Godless life

Is bound to arrive

At a shoreless shore.

```

10108

```

I call it my gratitude.

My Lord Supreme calls it

His great Festival.

```

10109

```

May my devotion-life

Before long burst into

My soulful surrender-flower-beauty.

```

10110

```

Each time I disobey God,

Sooner than at once

I meet with catastrophe.

```

10111

```

May this universe

Be flooded with

Humanity’s God-gratitude-hearts.

```

10112

```

There is only one thing

That everybody needs,

And that thing is to displace doubt

From one’s thoughts. ```

10113

```

Only an optimistic mind

Can eventually

Succeed.

```

10114

```

The address

Of God’s Heart

Is Infinity’s Silence.

```

10115

```

The address

Of God’s Eye

Is Eternity’s Vision.

```

10116

```

O my mind,

You must not speculate.

Your speculation is bound to meet

With frustration. ```

10117

```

A hesitation-mind can never succeed

In either the inner world of aspiration

Or the outer world of dedication.

```

10118

```

May my outer life be

As surrendering to God’s Will

As my soul is.

```

10119

```

No book knowledge

Can ever substitute

For the living presence

Of a living Master. ```

10120

```

When we pray to God

Self-givingly,

God is full of sweet Whispers.

```

10121

```

God employs my surrender-heart

And my oneness-life

For His daily use.

```

10122

```

The soul’s

God-obedience-height

Can never be scaled.

```

10123

```

My love of God

Considerably adds

To my spiritual life.

```

10124

```

My surrender to God

Multiplies the beauty and fragrance

Of my spirituality.

```

10125

```

My Lord Supreme,

Will my mind ever be ready

To receive You and fulfil You

In Your own Way? ```

10126

```

Alas, there should be a few special ways

To drive away powerfully

All temptation-distractions.

```

10127

```

Our heart’s aspiration-lion

Must keep on roaring

All the time.

```

10128

```

Self-discovery-effort

Is at once challenging

And fulfilling.

```

10129

```

No delight

Is as fulfilling

As our God-manifestation-delight.

```

10130

```

We all must do only one thing:

We all must expand

Our ceaseless self-offering-horizons.

```

10131

```

God-willingness and God-eagerness:

These two subjects

We must thoroughly study.

```

10132

```

God-Forgiveness

Shall forever remain

Invaluable and unparalleled.

```

10133

```

We must believe in God

When He tells us that

Each individual soul

Is His favourite for its uniqueness. ```

10134

```

Human accomplishments

Will be buried

In oblivion.

```

10135

```

Divine accomplishments

Will forever shine

In the Heart of Eternity.

```

10136

```

The beauty of Heaven

Is indeed inside

Our aspiration-devotion-heart.

```

10137

```

Nothing is as meaningful and fruitful

As planting oneself

In God’s Heart-Garden.

```

10138

```

My Lord Supreme,

I have only one prayer:

May my gratitude-heart

Breathe to the end of time. ```

10139

```

God-manifestation-expedition

Must be guileless, relentless,

Sleepless and breathless.

```

10140

```

A God-hungry life

Has to be self-giving

Without fail.

```

10141

```

O my mind, there shall come a time

When you will miss

God-manifestation-opportunities

If you have no longing for them. ```

10142

```

Time never makes anybody

A saint or a sinner.

It all depends on the good deeds

And misdeeds

Of a human being.

```

10143

```

When I deeply meditate,

My Lord Supreme comes to me

As a Rainbow-Blessing.

```

10144

```

Each seeker must try

To make his life the banquet

Of God’s highest Will.

```

10145

```

My heart’s true devotion

Makes my Lord Supreme

Breathlessly happy.

```

10146

```

My Lord wants

Only one thing from me.

He wants me to entertain Him

All the time. ```

10147

```

The outer teacher tells me

That he can make me

Unmistakably great.

```

10148

```

The inner teacher tells me

That I am definitely a choice instrument

Of my Lord Supreme.

```

10149

```

You are telling me that

You have nothing to do, O my mind.

If so, then start immediately

Burning God-gratitude-incense. ```

10150

```

You must forget the mind.

You must remember the soul.

Do not reverse the course.

```

10151

```

Our heart’s sincerity

And mind’s determination

Know the direct route

To God’s Palace. ```

10152

```

Only our Lord’s Tears can prevent us

From destroying the world

With our ignorance-pride.

```

10153

```

My Lord, save me, save me!

I am sinking fast, very fast,

Beneath the weight of my mind-burden.

```

10154

```

My Master’s sadness-tears

Have transformed

My negativity-mind.

```

10155

```

We call them

Our imperfections.

God calls them

His constant Self-Preparation. ```

10156

```

My Lord’s Joy knows no bounds

When I offer a gratitude-concert

To my aspiration-oneness-friends.

```

10157

```

Our God-obedience

Saves us from the tear-floods

Of our hearts.

```

10158

```

Only when we pray and meditate

Soulfully,

God allows us to speak

To His dearest Child, Silence. ```

10159

```

Our obedience

Is our flowering

In our Lord’s Heart-Garden.

```

10160

```

Where else is happiness,

If not inside

My sleepless love for God?

```

10161

```

My heart-dependence

On God

Is my life-confidence-reality.

```

10162

```

O my mind, delay not!

Wake up, wake up

To our Lord’s Smile-Blossoms.

```

10163

```

Each heart is blessed

With a Heaven-soaring

Oneness-smile.

```

10164

```

The fastest runner

Is always our

God-willingness-manifestation-runner.

```

10165

```

Every day you must create

Newness-notes to add to our

Sweetness-heart-melodies.

```

10166

```

My heart, increase, increase,

Increase every hour

Your God-dependence-delight.

```

10167

```

My Lord Supreme,

How long can I fly high

On false hope-wings?

```

10168

```

My mind, you must cultivate

And spread cheerfulness all where

For your total transformation.

```

10169

```

May my heart fly high,

Very high, on hope-wings

For the progress of my aspiration-life.

```

10170

```

Devotion-songs

Are meant only for

The heart-musicians.

```

10171

```

A heart-climber

Is a God-fulfiller

In a very special way.

```

10172

```

May my mind surrender to God

The way my mind compels

My heart to surrender.

```

10173

```

God tells every seeker

That he needs only one thing:

A doubt-moving faith-existence.

```

10174

```

My mind’s cheerfulness

Is the very beginning of my life’s

All-satisfying fulness.

```

10175

```

My self-giving life is indeed

A soul-flowering song

Of my heart.

```

10176

```

As there is no joy in inferiority,

Even so,

There is no joy in superiority.

```

10177

```

There is joy and fulfilment

Only in the heart

Of equality.

```

10178

```

God does not want me to become

The dust of His Feet

To please Him.

```

10179

```

God wants me to become

An adamantine will power

To fulfil and please Him

In His own Way. ```

10180

```

If your heart is the possessor

Of a sleepless and breathless cry,

Then God-realisation will not remain

A far cry. ```

10181

```

God smiles and dances with Joy

When I sing

My gratitude-heart-songs.

```

10182

```

Every day if you sing and play

With your own heart-child,

Then God will garland you

Most proudly. ```

10183

```

If you all the time think

Of others’ injustices to you,

When will you have time

To think of God, pray to God

And meditate on God?

```

10184

```

It seems that distractions

Can never be separated

From our human life.

```

10185

```

God sleeplessly

Inspires me

To aspire.

```

10186

```

I breathlessly aspire

To please God only

In His own Way.

```

10187

```

Alas, will the doubting mind

Ever surrender

To the God-loving heart?

```

10188

```

I shall keep my heart-temple

Always free from

The pretense of my mind.

```

10189

```

My Lord, do use me to fulfil

Any purpose of Yours

At any time You want to.

```

10190

```

To make God cry

With my heart-tears

Is indeed an easy task.

```

10191

```

I do not have to know

What my fate will be,

For my Beloved Supreme

Is taking care of it lovingly

And compassionately.

```

10192

```

What I need is a new mind

With the beauty and fragrance

Of a fresh flower.

```

10193

```

In beauty,

My prayerful gratitude-heart-tears

Have no parallel.

```

10194

```

I need only one opportunity

To love my Lord Supreme

Infinitely more.

```

10195

```

What is wrong with me?

How is it that I still cannot

Terminate my friendship

With my God-doubting mind? ```

10196

```

Divinity blessingfully

Loves to enjoy

Sweet whispers.

```

10197

```

Humanity openly

Loves to enjoy

Loud thunder-applause.

```

10198

```

If you listen to your body,

Vital and mind,

You will find God nowhere.

```

10199

```

If you listen to your heart,

God will not only be visible all where,

But He will be all for you.

```

10200

```

The mind suspects the beauty

Of a heart-flower

While counting the petals

Of the flower. ```

10201

```

At times God does not listen

To our prayers

Because what we pray for

Is so insignificant. ```

10202

```

Those who obey God’s Will,

God will naturally have

A very high opinion of.

```

10203

```

God the Vision

Builds me.

God the Compassion

Shields me. ```

10204

```

When we pray to God self-givingly,

He tells us that He will not allow

Any undivine forces to triumph over us.

```

10205

```

Try again and again.

Do not give up.

There shall come a time

When God Himself

Will come to your rescue.

```

10206

```

When wrong forces attack you,

Do not run for your life.

Accept the challenge immediately

And demolish their pride. ```

10207

```

In life only one thing matters —

Peace.

Peace, once we have,

We need nothing more. ```

10208

```

Do not enjoy your self-pity-life.

You can love yourself

And turn yourself into

A choice instrument of God. ```

10209

```

Not whenever you can,

But always,

You must try to enjoy

Your Master-Lord’s company. ```

10210

```

When we pray to God the Forgiveness,

He forgives us.

But do we really have the capacity

To forgive ourselves? ```

10211

```

For me, my meditation

Has always been one thing:

Good news.

```

10212

```

God loves us too much

To let ignorance defeat us

In the battlefield of life.

```

10213

```

God loves me

When I love Him.

But He loves me more

When I sincerely need Him. ```

10214

```

Ignorance-night

Does what it wants to do:

It tries to humiliate me.

I do what I must do:

I try to illuminate it.

```

10215

```

The mind-religions are many.

The heart-religion is only one:

Constant love of God.

```

10216

```

Self-promotion

Is the betrayal

Of my self-confidence.

```

10217

```

My Lord tells me

That even if I choose

The abysmal abyss,

He will not give up on me. ```

10218

```

My Lord tells me

That the love that does not stop

Is the love I need.

```

10219

```

My Lord Supreme,

I do not want

A harvest of success.

```

10220

```

What I need, my Lord,

Is a tinier than the tiniest

Progress.

```

10221

```

My Lord wants from me

Not my powerful life,

But my faithful heart.

```

10222

```

Every day my Lord Supreme

Magnifies the beauty, intensity

And power

Of my willingness. ```

10223

```

Our faith in God

Is, indeed, the real sunshine

In our spiritual life.

```

10224

```

Our blossoming faith in God

Can easily shatter

All our mind-doubts.

```

10225

```

If we pray to God

And meditate on God,

Then our life’s responsibility-weights

Become lighter and lighter. ```

10226

```

Aspiration-flames

Illumine the desire-future-life

Of every seeker.

```

10227

```

A cheerful heart

Is definitely a short-cut

To God-realisation.

```

10228

```

God loves each and every human being,

But He loves His world-peace-dreamers

Infinitely more.

```

10229

```

God gave me a confidence-heart.

Alas, I am replacing it

With an insecurity-mind.

```

10230

```

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. ```

10231

```

If you want to make yourself happy,

Then take your desire-life

As a long-buried life.

```

10232

```

My Lord teaches me day by day

How to become thirsty

For Nectar-Delight.

```

10233

```

Height after height we scale

When we start walking speedily

On surrender-road.

```

10234

```

If we do not have

Burning aspiration,

We may drown

In temptation-sea. ```

10235

```

Once you seriously enter

Into the spiritual life,

You must do away with

Your ego-pride-intoxication. ```

10236

```

My mind’s doubt-life was dispelled

The moment I entered into

My faith-heart-temple.

```

10237

```

There is no such thing as sacrifice.

It is only the fulfilment

Of God’s Oneness-Will.

```

10238

```

Before I go to sleep every night,

I pray to my Lord Supreme to bless me

With a sweetness-hope-dream.

```

10239

```

Each seeker

Has a special role to play

In God’s Cosmic Drama.

```

10240

```

All that began

With our inner divinity

Will fruitfully end

In our outer divinity. ```

10241

```

My Lord Supreme,

Do give me the capacity to climb

The zenith-height of forgiveness

Every day. ```

10242

```

The mind disturbs us

Because we are afraid of invoking

The light of our soul.

```

10243

```

God asks us to do only one thing:

He wants our mind to be plunged

Into the sea of Light and Delight.

```

10244

```

There is only one life —

The life of

The Song Universal.

```

10245

```

Depression is dangerous.

Depression is self-destructive.

Depression is the real failure

In our spiritual life. ```

10246

```

May each thought

In the mind-room

Have a pure and celestial light.

```

10247

```

A purity-mind

Lovingly shelters

The entire body.

```

10248

```

A seeker’s most formidable adversary

Is his God-doubting

And self-doubting mind.

```

10249

```

What is fear?

Fear is something

That enslaves us.

```

10250

```

What is fear?

Fear is something

That compels our courage

To starve to death. ```

10251

```

Question your doubting mind,

Not just one time,

But a million times.

```

10252

```

Never question

Your God-aspiring heart —

Never!

```

10253

```

When I am kind to myself,

God’s Love for me

Increases immensely.

```

10254

```

God’s Compassion-Eye

Loves me too much to ignore me,

Even for a fleeting moment.

```

10255

```

Our Compassion-Lord is not deaf.

He just waits for the right moment

To do the needful.

```

10256

```

He who encourages me

Is, indeed, a true friend

Of my heart.

```

10257

```

An encourager teaches me

How to be a fast driver

On my life-road.

```

10258

```

My Lord tells me to trust Him:

“My child, I shall watch over

Your outer life

Exactly the way I watch over

Your inner life.”

```

10259

```

Two things my Lord does not want

To have from me:

Complaint and explanation.

```

10260

```

What is my Lord doing?

He is celebrating my independence

From ignorance-night.

```

10261

```

What else is my Lord doing?

He is broadcasting my total dependence

On Him.

```

10262

```

When my heart becomes a victim

To worries and anxieties,

My Lord Beloved Supreme

Swims in the sea of tears. ```

10263

```

My Lord tells me that

The sound of my prayerful voice

Delights Him immediately.

```

10264

```

God the Justice-Light

Illumines

My mind.

```

10265

```

God the Compassion-Height

Fulfils

My life.

```

10266

```

Progress

Is the joy

Of my inner pilgrimage.

```

10267

```

Self-transcendence

Is my

Ever-blossoming goal.

```

10268

```

If you think you are perfect,

Then how do you expect anybody

To be with you or even around you?

```

10269

```

My love of God

Is the only perfect joy

In my heart.

```

10270

```

O my doubting mind,

My heart and I vehemently refuse

To be confused by you.

```

10271

```

God tells me that He will allow

The mind to do the judging

Only after it has become

Absolutely perfect. ```

10272

```

Every day God asks us

To be self-giving.

How can we think

That today

Will be any different?

```

10273

```

There is only one boss

In your inner life and outer life,

And that is God.

```

10274

```

The mind’s negativity

Can paralyse

The aspiring heart-body.

```

10275

```

My Beloved Supreme loves me.

Therefore,

He needs me.

```

10276

```

I need my Lord Supreme.

Therefore,

I love Him.

```

10277

```

My Lord Supreme does not expect

Perfection from me.

He expects only faithfulness from me.

```

10278

```

Every year is a sunrise-year

For us to promise

Our outer success-harvest

And inner progress-harvest. ```

10279

```

My Lord Supreme,

No matter what I do,

You never give up on me.

```

10280

```

My Lord Supreme,

No matter what You do,

I promise I shall never give up on You.

```

10281

```

When the hostile forces

Take full advantage of the mind,

Confusion takes away the light

From our heart. ```

10282

```

In the spiritual life

Conditional love

Is, indeed, a joke.

```

10283

```

Nothing else matters,

Nothing else matters!

All that matters

Is God’s Compassion-Eye. ```

10284

```

God tells my heart

To do only one thing:

Like Him,

To love the world unconditionally. ```

10285

```

I love

God-dependence.

God loves

Our interdependence. ```

10286

```

What does faith in God mean?

It means we can stand impervious

To life’s storms.

```

10287

```

The knowledge of the mind

To a great extent

Entangles us.

```

10288

```

The wisdom

Of the soul

Enlightens us.

```

10289

```

To increase strength, inner and outer,

What we need is more faith,

And nothing else.

```

10290

```

The stupid mind

Wants

Power-possession.

```

10291

```

The wise heart

Desires

Love-expansion.

```

10292

```

Those who are in the mind

Will never find God

Anywhere.

```

10293

```

Those who are in the mind

Will never think

That God-realisation is indispensable.

```

10294

```

Those who are in the mind

Think that God-discovery

Is not worthwhile.

```

10295

```

Those who are in the mind

Remain

True happiness-strangers.

```

10296

```

Those who are in the mind

Will never be able

To satisfy themselves unreservedly.

```

10297

```

Those who are in the mind

Do not believe that Infinity

Is ready and eager to befriend them.

```

10298

```

God the Imagination

Is my proud

Mind-producer.

```

10299

```

God the Reality

Is

My heart-discovery.

```

10300

```

God will be fond of you

Only when

You are kind to yourself.

```

10301

```

Unless the door of my heart

Is flung open,

How can I welcome

My Beloved Supreme? ```

10302

```

My meditation-joy

Is flying and flying

Far over the sea.

```

10303

```

When I contemplate,

I contemplate on my Lord Supreme

In the silence of my soul.

```

10304

```

My God-hunger

Has blessed me with

A sweetness-heart-fountain.

```

10305

```

A lover

Of my mind’s sound-life

I was.

```

10306

```

A seeker

Of my heart’s silence-breath

I now am.

```

10307

```

My Lord gives me

Earthly cries

To dream of

Heavenly dreams. ```

10308

```

The real love

Does not have to know

How deep its depth is.

```

10309

```

My Lord speaks to my mind

About the supreme necessity of

Divine love.

```

10310

```

My Lord speaks to my heart

About the inevitability of growing into

Divine love.

```

10311

```

When I think of surrendering myself

Unconditionally to my Lord Supreme,

The wings of Heaven start singing

And dancing. ```

10312

```

With my gratitude-heart

Once more I am entering into

My Lord’s Heart-Garden.

```

10313

```

When we fly on the wings

Of God’s Love,

We fly in the sky

Of the ever-blossoming Beyond. ```

10314

```

My pride-mind declares:

The Lord Supreme lives

Inside my mind.

```

10315

```

My humility-heart whispers:

I live inside the Heart

Of my Beloved Supreme.

```

10316

```

My desiring mind

Lives inside

The house of today.

```

10317

```

My aspiring heart

Lives inside

The home of tomorrow.

```

10318

```

My Lord’s Heart-Fragrance

Is

My aspiration-heart-breath.

```

10319

```

When we work without love,

We blindly bind ourselves

To ourselves.

```

10320

```

When we work with love,

We unite ourselves

With Infinity’s Love.

```

10321

```

A peacemaker is he

Who transforms division-competition

Into union-satisfaction.

```

10322

```

When we sow,

We must sow

With unending love.

```

10323

```

When we reap,

We must reap with endless

And breathless gratitude.

```

10324

```

The soul finds no difficulty

In walking on

All God-realisation-paths.

```

10325

```

The illumination-soul unfolds itself

To receive Infinity’s Light

From the self-transcendence

Of the Beyond. ```

10326

```

I have come to realise

That pain is not God-given,

But self-chosen.

```

10327

```

When we aspire and dive deep within,

We clearly see that we are guided by

The Compassion-Eye of the Unseen.

```

10328

```

A real Master compassionately

Feeds his disciples

In their inner lives.

```

10329

```

A real Master proudly

Leads his disciples

In their outer lives.

```

10330

```

Although I do not dare to say

That I am perfect,

I dare to say that every day

I am rejecting more and more

The snares of imperfection.

```

10331

```

My Lord tells me that if I am sincere

When I tell Him that I love Him only,

Only then will He invite me

To plunge into His Infinity. ```

10332

```

To live in the mind

Is to stray

From the right path.

```

10333

```

My prayer-garden

And my meditation-garden

Will eventually become

My realisation-blossoms. ```

10334

```

If you are singularly sincere

And self-giving,

Then your progress

Will know no bounds. ```

10335

```

Unconditional surrender

Is the master key

To God-realisation

And God-manifestation. ```

10336

```

The glory of the outer life

Becomes sooner or later

Fruitless and useless.

```

10337

```

Only true love

Can bring about

Real freedom.

```

10338

```

I love

The newness

Of humanity’s tears.

```

10339

```

I love

The fulness

Of Divinity’s Smiles.

```

10340

```

My meditation-sun

Is bound to conquer the pride

Of thickest ignorance-clouds.

```

10341

```

My prayer-tears

And my meditation-smiles

Show me the gate to Heaven.

```

10342

```

I am happy

When I meditate

All by myself.

```

10343

```

I am happier

When I meditate

In front of my Master divine.

```

10344

```

I am happiest

When I meditate

Only for my Lord’s constant Victory.

```

10345

```

May my joyful heart

Stretch its arms

To the farthest corners of the globe.

```

10346

```

Those who can walk

On the aspiration-road

Fast, very fast,

Will get a free ticket to go and watch

The God-realisation-play.

```

10347

```

If you have intensity

In your God-manifestation-service,

Then God will bless you

With His Infinity’s Pride. ```

10348

```

Prayer and meditation

Definitely have the capacity

To shorten our way

To the highest Heaven. ```

10349

```

Faith is nothing short of

An all-loving, all-illumining

And all-fulfilling delight.

```

10350

```

Do not dwell on your grief.

Go forward, leaving behind

All your sufferings

And sorrows. ```

10351

```

May my heart’s faithful hope

And powerful promise

Forever live

To please my Lord Supreme. ```

10352

```

If you do not aspire,

Sooner or later your mind

Will be haunted by ruthless ghosts.

```

10353

```

If you are a pioneer,

Then your suffering itself

Will glorify you more

Than anything else. ```

10354

```

The day I made my surrender

Unconditional,

I became the possessor

Of my long-coveted freedom. ```

10355

```

Faith, my heart’s faith,

Is indeed

My ever-blossoming hope.

```

10356

```

Love, devotion and surrender —

These three are my heart-keys

To unlock the doors of Heaven.

```

10357

```

I have been trying for years

To light the torch of hope

In my heart.

```

10358

```

God-realisation

Is

A supreme achievement.

```

10359

```

We achieve God-realisation

By virtue of God’s

Unconditional Grace.

```

10360

```

When all hearts are tuned,

God swims

In His own Ecstasy-Sea.

```

10361

```

O my mind, stop browsing

In the warehouse

Of the fruitless past.

```

10362

```

We must unlock the treasure-house

Of the fast-approaching,

All-fulfilling future.

```

10363

```

Of all the gifts

That my Lord gives me,

His Forgiveness-Gift

I treasure sleeplessly and breathlessly. ```

10364

```

God asks my heart

Not only to be pure and divine,

But also to be constantly self-giving.

```

10365

```

When I meditate well,

I throb with the thrill

Of God-Satisfaction.

```

10366

```

I want the world to please me,

No matter what I do

For the world.

```

10367

```

God does not want a seeker

To study

At man’s disobedience-school.

```

10368

```

Go to God

As a roaring lion

And not

As a bleating lamb. ```

10369

```

The fragrance of an aspiration-heart

Sweetens all

All-where.

```

10370

```

Inspiration can flower

In the heart of each and everyone,

Irrespective of age.

```

10371

```

If you sleep

At your outer shrine,

It is unacceptable.

```

10372

```

If you sleep

At your inner shrine,

It is unpardonable.

```

10373

```

My Lord Supreme alone

Matters,

Instantly and eternally.

```

10374

```

Stay awake, fully awake,

Divinely awake, supremely awake,

To take full advantage of life.

```

10375

```

Life is uphill.

Be not afraid.

God Himself will show you

The way to the higher worlds. ```

10376

```

Replace your mind-confusion

With your heart’s

Gratitude-illumination.

```

10377

```

Only the birds of freedom

Have the capacity to fly

In a oneness-sky.

```

10378

```

If there is no purity,

Your realisation may not be

Your deep conviction.

```

10379

```

I am enamoured

Of only one thing:

My Lord’s Compassion-flooded Eye.

```

10380

```

If you do not stop

Moaning and groaning,

How can your Lord Beloved Supreme

Start singing? ```

10381

```

My mind’s resolutions

Are not my hallucinations,

Illusions or frustrations.

```

10382

```

If your gratitude

Is cheerful,

Then your life

Is bound to be fruitful. ```

10383

```

Restrain your temptation-mind,

If you want to find God

Inside all your divine activities.

```

10384

```

Yesterday my heart

Was very dear

To God.

```

10385

```

Today I see my heart

Nearer than the nearest

To God.

```

10386

```

God-realisation is an achievement

Infinitely more significant

Than any other achievement.

```

10387

```

A true aspiration-heart

Does not worry.

It only tries to hurry up everything

So that it can receive

New blessingful messages from Above.

```

10388

```

When you accept the spiritual life

Sincerely,

You will appreciate your own life’s

Turning point. ```

10389

```

I fear God’s

Cosmic Eye,

But not God’s

Cosmic Heart. ```

10390

```

The soul-journey

Is a journey

Far beyond the horizons.

```

10391

```

Do not criticise anybody.

Your criticism-thorn

Will cause bleeding

In your universal life. ```

10392

```

Disobedience causes the hazards of life

Long before the seeker

Is even aware of it.

```

10393

```

With our service-heart

We expedite without fail

Our Godward journey.

```

10394

```

O my God-searching mind,

Keep at a safe distance from doubt

All the time.

```

10395

```

God is

God’s Patience.

Can I not be

My speed? ```

10396

```

When man becomes

The beauty of willingness,

God becomes

The fragrance of eagerness. ```

10397

```

To become my Lord’s heart-hero,

I must swim at every moment

In the God-Compassion-Sea.

```

10398

```

Eagerness only takes a few moments

To do the needful

And perform a monumental task.

```

10399

```

God’s Compassion-Eye

Is my life’s

Protection-Escort.

```

10400

```

If we do not repeat God’s Name

All the time,

Then it is nothing short of

A wasted breath. ```

10401

```

God-unwillingness means

The sure arrival

Of catastrophe.

```

10402

```

A true aspiration-heart

Gets a sumptuous inner meal

From God Himself.

```

10403

```

There is nothing that

God will not do

For a sincere devotion-heart.

```

10404

```

If we can see God

Through our devotion-eyes,

Then only we shall feel satisfied

At every moment of our life. ```

10405

```

We must climb up

The spirituality-ladder —

High, higher, highest —

To arrive at our ultimate Goal. ```

10406

```

My heart’s God-longing tears

Are feeling my Lord’s

Compassion-flooded Hands.

```

10407

```

There is only one way

To energise our spiritual heart,

And that way is to love God

With our willingness and eagerness-joy. ```

10408

```

Our first and foremost task

Is to transform our self-doubting

And God-doubting mind.

```

10409

```

Only good and divine thoughts

Are allowed to sing and dance

In front of the Lord Supreme.

```

10410

```

When I do not pray and meditate,

My heart’s sorrows throb

Most pitifully.

```

10411

```

A surrender-heart

Is the beautiful and powerful tide

Of God’s Compassion-Sea.

```

10412

```

Today’s heart-dreams

Tomorrow take birth

As life-realities.

```

10413

```

If you are afraid of taking messages

From the ever-transcending Beyond,

How can God ever be satisfied with you

Inside your heart-breath? ```

10414

```

My Lord Supreme Himself

Celebrates my self-giving

Surrender-service-life.

```

10415

```

Peace is the heart’s

Most illumining

And most fulfilling gift.

```

10416

```

Only a God-aspiring heart-artist

Can paint beautifully

The landscape of soulfulness

And fulness. ```

10417

```

The happiness of a surrender-life

Can easily take off

The depression-pounds of the vital.

```

10418

```

Receptivity is all we need

To receive boundless Fulness-Presents

From our Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

10419

```

My heart, pray, pray, pray again

To your Lord Supreme

For the return of your cries and tears.

```

10420

```

All that is lost shall definitely be found

If God’s Compassion

Is prayerfully begged.

```

10421

```

The tears of our heart

Can repair all that is broken

In our spiritual life.

```

10422

```

The beauty and fragrance

Of a self-giving life

Have neither a beginning

Nor an end. ```

10423

```

No mind can ever fathom

The timeless mystery

Of love divine.

```

10424

```

Every day we must kneel down

At the gates of the God-blossoming dawn

To feed our God-love-hunger.

```

10425

```

One small, sincere prayer,

And then what happens?

God Himself appears

In all His infinite Bounties. ```

10426

```

He who taught us

How to sow aspiration-seed

Will definitely show us

How to reap as well —

Needless to say, at His own Time.

```

10427

```

My Lord Supreme tells me

That I have not only the right to know,

But also the right to grow

And eventually become. ```

10428

```

If we pray and meditate soulfully,

God will show us that

A life of satisfaction is as easy

As a smile. ```

10429

```

May each prayer

Of mine

Be a sky-climbing flame.

```

10430

```

To unlock the secret meaning of life,

We must lead a life of simplicity,

Sincerity and purity.

```

10431

```

Our heart-tears only

Can bridge the gap

Between God and humanity.

```

10432

```

A mind of criticism

Will never be able to arrive

At the gate of Truth.

```

10433

```

My Lord, do bless us with

Your infinite Compassion

And Forgiveness,

And do bless us with

A soulful new century,

Unlike the present one. ```

10434

```

I get joy not when I place

My sadness-life on God’s Shoulders,

But when I place it

At my Lord’s Compassion-Feet. ```

10435

```

The soul is desperately trying

To unfold itself.

Let the heart join the soul.

```

10436

```

When the victory dawns,

Both the heart and the soul

Enjoy the Beauty, Light and Power

Of God. ```

10437

```

God’s Eye-Beauty

Comes directly from

God’s Heart-Fragrance.

```

10438

```

As the soul does not need to prove

That it is an immortal child of God,

Even so, there shall come a day

When our heart will also be able

To do the same.

```

10439

```

Failure-tears will always

Remain as strangers

To enthusiasm-smiles.

```

10440

```

Do not give up, do not give up!

God will definitely help

Your aspiration to rise.

Do not give up, do not give up! ```

10441

```

My life-confidence

Comes directly from

My heart-conviction in God.

```

10442

```

God repeatedly tells us that

An aspiration-heart is a complete

Complication-confusion-free zone.

```

10443

```

We can easily tiptoe around

Our misfortunes and troubles

If we can keep our aspiration-heart

And dedication-life

Simple, pure and sincere.

```

10444

```

My progress-life depends on

What I say about

And do for humanity.

```

10445

```

My Lord Supreme, You have not

Smiled at me for a long time.

Do You not think it is high time for You

To bless me with a powerful Smile? ```

10446

```

God wants my surrender-heart

To visit Him,

Not only frequently, but daily.

```

10447

```

Mine was a drowning life,

But now mine is a God-Compassion

And God-Satisfaction-life.

```

10448

```

My Lord,

May Your Satisfaction-Fragrance

Forever live inside the breath

Of my aspiration-heart. ```

10449

```

The tears of my heart

Are

Divinely pure.

```

10450

```

The smiles of my soul

Are divinely pure,

Plus supremely beautiful.

```

10451

```

My Lord Beloved Supreme tells me

That I shall no longer remain a loser

In the battlefield of my life.

```

10452

```

An aspiration-heart-garden

Can always remain

In full bloom.

```

10453

```

When our God-longing is sincere,

God Himself plants aspiration-seeds

In our heart-garden.

```

10454

```

The mind’s doubt-skies

Can and must be illumined

By the soul’s realisation-sunshine.

```

10455

```

What I call

Hesitation,

My Lord calls

His frustration. ```

10456

```

Alas, the strangling vital

Does not take God’s final notice

Seriously.

```

10457

```

Aspiration is never an old subject.

It is an ever-new subject

For us to study.

```

10458

```

An ordinary person does not believe

That his desire-vacation

Will ultimately end.

```

10459

```

If we suspect others,

Then we shall definitely remain

In the captivity of our mind’s hell.

```

10460

```

An unwanted thought

Definitely proves to be

A most formidable enemy.

```

10461

```

God will bless us with

His Illumination-Ocean

If we dare to still

Our mind-thought-waves. ```

10462

```

Every day our soul helps our lives

To branch out into a new

Self-discovery.

```

10463

```

O anxiety-worry-jealousy-impurity-

Mosquitoes,

Stop, stop biting me once and for all!

```

10464

```

My Lord,

I really do not want to stay anymore

In my mind-sky’s impurity-clouds.

```

10465

```

What does meditation do?

Meditation transforms a stone heart

Into a flower-heart.

```

10466

```

My inner beauty I see all-where

When I shed tears

For my Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

10467

```

My Lord, do You know

Or will You ever know

How much life-fulfilment I get

From Your fleeting Smile? ```

10468

```

Our heart’s aspiration-fields

Every day God uses

When He wants to run.

```

10469

```

God’s Heart-Garden is telling us

At every moment

To breathe in and enjoy

Its Beauty and Fragrance

To our heart’s content.

```

10470

```

Unless I feel the touch

Of my Lord’s Feet inside my heart,

How can I ever be happy and fulfilled?

```

10471

```

God’s Compassion

Is constantly blossoming

In my heart

Only to make my life happy. ```

10472

```

What I desperately need

Is

A God-hunger-starvation.

```

10473

```

May I receive every Command

Of my Lord Supreme

Not only cheerfully

But also self-givingly. ```

10474

```

Our surrender-life only

Has the capacity to deepen

Our heart-love for our Lord Supreme.

```

10475

```

Every day

I compel my mind

To be a God-Heart-listener.

```

10476

```

Our Lord Supreme wants us to be

A consciousness-adventurer

And conscience-lover.

```

10477

```

My Lord Supreme,

Do give me the capacity

To offer You every day

The flowers of my heart’s breath

Smilingly and self-givingly.

```

10478

```

Today’s inner awareness

Tomorrow will grow into

Tomorrow’s outer fulness.

```

10479

```

A willingness-heart

Is

A dedication-life-springboard.

```

10480

```

When inspiration and aspiration

Walk together,

God’s Compassion joins them

And gives them the capacity

To run and fly.

```

10481

```

The fear in the mind

Is, indeed,

Ignorance-tyrant.

```

10482

```

The house of the mind

Will never know the existence

Of Infinity’s Heart-Home.

```

10483

```

O my mind,

You do what you are supposed to do:

You become determination.

```

10484

```

O my mind,

God will immediately do

What He is supposed to do:

He will give you

Your long-cherished satisfaction.

```

10485

```

My Lord

Is not at all interested

In my mind-stories.

```

10486

```

My Lord

Is all interested

In my heart-songs.

```

10487

```

Mountain-high depression

And ocean-deep depression

Can only be conquered

By God’s unconditional Compassion. ```

10488

```

Perhaps God Himself does not know

When He is going

To stop forgiving humanity,

Specially me. ```

10489

```

Every day God expects my heart

To tell Him something new,

Something beautiful, something soulful,

And something fruitful. ```

10490

```

God’s Will is not only most powerful,

But also, at the same time,

Sweeter than the sweetest.

```

10491

```

Every day God loves to come

And bless me

In my simple heart-village-cottage.

```

10492

```

God’s Justice-Light

Always cheerfully surrenders

To God’s Forgiveness-Delight.

```

10493

```

When we want to see

What God-gratitude truly is,

We discover that it is

Nothing other than

Our spiritual picnic-joy.

```

10494

```

My Lord Supreme equally treasures

My life’s surrender

And my heart’s gratitude.

```

10495

```

The stupid mind

Dares even to suspect

God’s unconditional Love.

```

10496

```

O my aspiration-heart,

Every day discover new

God-pleasing and God-fulfilling wings.

```

10497

```

Our pride not only unconsciously

But also deliberately

Goes away from our Lord’s

Compassion-Heart. ```

10498

```

Only those who are brave

Can silence

Their minds.

```

10499

```

Only those who are pure

Can feed

Their God-hunger.

```

10500

```

Only those who love God

For God’s sake

Will have satisfaction

In bountiful measure. ```

10501

```

God cares only for my orphan-tears

Because He feels these orphan-tears

Are truly, absolutely genuine.

```

10502

```

Desire, temptation and frustration

Somehow manage

To live together.

```

10503

```

He is my friend.

Therefore, all his virtues

I magnify and broadcast.

```

10504

```

He is my friend.

Therefore, all his shortcomings

I minimise and hide.

```

10505

```

The acceptance of the spiritual life

Immediately indicates

The life’s real turning point.

```

10506

```

Pleasure-intoxication

Has a very, very

Short life.

```

10507

```

My gratitude-heart-day

Is the most fulfilling day

In my life.

```

10508

```

My Supreme Lord,

Is there any day

That I am not eager to serve You?

```

10509

```

My Supreme Lord,

Is there any day

That You accept my eagerness?

Why, why, why? ```

10510

```

“My child, your eagerness is empty

Of cheerfulness and soulfulness.

Therefore,

I decline to accept your offer.” ```

10511

```

Desire-night tries to steal

Everybody’s heart-light,

And quite often it succeeds.

```

10512

```

My Lord Supreme,

Since You love me,

Can You not turn

My worthless and useless

Sorrows, anxieties and worries

To dust? ```

10513

```

The beauty of silence

And

The fragrance of peace

Always live around

My aspiration-heart.

```

10514

```

God’s God-Hour

Is fast approaching me.

Why?

Because my life

Is a surrender-heart

To my Lord Supreme. ```

10515

```

Every day God takes birth

Inside your heart

With His Eternity’s Hope

And Infinity’s Promise. ```

10516

```

Gratitude has the capacity

To feed God’s Hunger

All by itself.

```

10517

```

Whenever my heart says something

To my Lord Supreme,

My Lord immediately believes.

```

10518

```

Whenever my mind says something

To God,

God not only hesitates to believe,

But immediately rejects

And discards it.

```

10519

```

God tells my vital

That because He is

His Eternity’s Tolerance,

My vital survives. ```

10520

```

God tells my mind

That because He is

His Infinity’s Compassion,

He tolerates my mind. ```

10521

```

God tells me that a true disciple

Needs no rest,

Even for a fleeting second,

From His manifestation here on earth. ```

10522

```

My Lord Supreme,

Do tell me what my actual role is

In Your Cosmic Play.

```

10523

```

“My child, acceptance of My Will

As your own, very own,

Is your only role in My Cosmic Play.”

```

10524

```

My Lord, will there ever be

Any day in my lifetime

When my thought-mind

Will forever cease to exist? ```

10525

```

O sincerity,

Where are you?

My mind calls you repeatedly.

And who comes in your place?

Insincerity.

```

10526

```

First you have to become

God’s realisation-lamb.

Then God feeds you and feeds you

And you become

His manifestation-lion.

```

10527

```

If you truly love God

And care for God,

Then never waver.

```

10528

```

Never budge

Even an inch from

Your God-obedience-station.

```

10529

```

God invites us to swim

In the river of happiness

When we pray to Him

To give us the capacity

For the manifestation of His Fulness.

```

10530

```

If you do not have

A full-time aspiration-heart,

How can you expect

An endless Compassion-Smile

From God?

```

10531

```

God wants my silent

Surrender-power and surrender-delight

To increase immensely every day.

```

10532

```

The future of religion

Is a sleepless world-oneness-song

And God-satisfaction-dance.

```

10533

```

The unaspiring mind

Has been enjoying

For a very long time

The fulness of falsehood,

Not unconsciously but consciously.

```

10534

```

The difference between me and my mind

Is this:

My mind is a greedy possessor,

And I am a happy renouncer. ```

10535

```

Criticism can never create anything

Beautiful, powerful, soulful

And fruitful.

```

10536

```

My prayer-life tells me

That it always

Thinks of God.

```

10537

```

My meditation-heart tells me

That God thinks of me

Whether I think of Him or not.

```

10538

```

God is God’s

Sorrowful Eyes.

Yet we do not obey God.

```

10539

```

God is God’s

Painful Heart.

Yet we do not obey God.

```

10540

```

God is God’s

All-caring Heartbeat.

Yet we do not believe and value God.

```

10541

```

God wants me to climb up

The forgiveness-peak

Long before I think of climbing up

Other peaks. ```

10542

```

God has forgiven me

Once and for all.

Alas, even then it is difficult

For me to tell Him

That He is my All.

```

10543

```

There is only one life:

God’s Love-Blessing

Here, there and all-where.

```

10544

```

If your heart wants to sing,

Then your soul is bound

To teach your heart every day

A new song. ```

10545

```

My humility-heart

And my truth-seeking mind

Are supplying me with

Enormous cheerfulness. ```

10546

```

O my stupid mind,

Why and how have you become

A depression-slave?

```

10547

```

O my stupid mind,

Who can prevent you from becoming

An enthusiasm-emperor?

```

10548

```

I enjoy and treasure

My soul-company

More than anything else.

```

10549

```

Alas, a constantly doubting mind

Has made him poorer

Than a street beggar

In the inner world. ```

10550

```

O seeker,

Never allow doubt

To stop your Heavenward journey.

No, do not even allow doubt

To delay you.

```

10551

```

O my mind,

Can you not see

That your whole existence

Is covered

With useless complaint-dust?

```

10552

```

I am disappointed

Not only in the restlessness of my mind,

But also in the wastefulness of my life.

```

10553

```

Divinity’s Victory

Must be trumpeted

By your heart, vital, mind and body.

```

10554

```

Surrender

Comes from within,

And not from without.

```

10555

```

Surrender

Comes from the silence

Of our inner discipline

And from our inner light. ```

10556

```

Real surrender

Never comes from outer commands

Or outer lectures.

```

10557

```

Only he who has silence-plenitude

In the mind

Can scale the highest inner mountain.

```

10558

```

Offer God

What He expects from you —

Enthusiasm and nothing more.

```

10559

```

We are so fortunate

That God’s Compassion-Eye

Does not and cannot disown us,

No matter what we say against Him,

No matter what we do against Him.

```

10560

```

Man-conceived and man-made

Obstructions in the spiritual life

Are innumerable.

```

10561

```

Fear-fed insecurity

Is governing

Our life.

```

10562

```

Determination and enthusiasm

Can easily bring about

A totally new and inspiring life.

```

10563

```

He who has completely surrendered

To God’s Will

Will be blessed by God Himself

With God’s universal Joy-Trophy. ```

10564

```

When we do not aspire,

We actually exploit shamelessly

God’s Compassion-flooded Eye.

```

10565

```

We need dynamic faith

To arouse the dormant enthusiasm

In us.

```

10566

```

Our God-gratitude-flower

Every morning

Must bloom.

```

10567

```

During the day

Our God-gratitude-flower

Must fully blossom.

```

10568

```

When I am in my highest meditation,

I clearly see and enjoy

The beauty and divinity of my soul

Inside

My thousand-petalled lotus-crown.

```

10569

```

If you have a devotion-heart,

Then you can easily transmit

God’s Love to your fellow seekers.

```

10570

```

We can easily gaze

On the infinite beauty

Of our aspiration-heart,

If we really want to. ```

10571

```

My mind,

Be not

A humanity-disgrace-reality.

```

10572

```

My heart,

Be

A Divinity-embrace-reality.

```

10573

```

A life of unconditional surrender

Is something that we can

Definitely achieve,

But it is not for demonstration. ```

10574

```

Anxieties can blanket

Our human minds,

But never, never

Our divine souls. ```

10575

```

Every morning

My soul brings my heart

And places it at the Feet

Of my Lord Supreme

For a new God-realisation,

God-revelation and God-manifestation. ```

10576

```

The little “i” in me is so stupid

That it does not want to be identified

With my Lord’s

Compassion-flooded Will. ```

10577

```

My heart shall

No more dream

Empty dreams.

```

10578

```

My heart shall live from now on

In the skies and galaxies of realities

On the strength of its constant, sleepless

God-obedience. ```

10579

```

God Himself takes a human body

To become inseparably one

With humanity’s sorrows and joys,

And then to illumine them

For the full manifestation

Of His own Divinity on earth. ```

10580

```

O my body,

I am ashamed

Of your heavy weight.

```

10581

```

O my body,

I am infinitely more ashamed

Of your lethargy-weight.

```

10582

```

O my mind,

Why do you deliberately enjoy

Bitterness?

```

10583

```

O my mind,

Can you not see that bitterness

Leads you nowhere?

```

10584

```

When you lose weight,

Your mind becomes clearer,

Your body becomes lighter —

You are ready to compete

With the birds.

```

10585

```

Friendship

Is indeed

Our self-progress-delight.

```

10586

```

A prayer

Is not

A mere thought.

```

10587

```

A prayer

Is

Our inner God-seeking cry.

```

10588

```

Desire-mind, desire-vital,

Desire-physical existence,

Enough, enough!

Do not torture me anymore.

Go away! Go away!

```

10589

```

The chiming of the inner bells

Is beckoning

My unfulfilled outer life.

```

10590

```

We must climb up

The mountain of spirituality

If we really have God-hunger

And God-thirst in us. ```

10591

```

When the Inner Voice speaks,

It needs our complete

Outer attention.

```

10592

```

Do anything in your power

To prevent self-doubt

From torturing you.

```

10593

```

God wants heart-aspiration

From me,

And not my explanations.

```

10594

```

Everything that does not help me

To dive inward, to fly upward,

To move forward,

Is unacceptable. ```

10595

```

When he became

An unconditionally surrendered life,

The Absolute God

Joined the cosmic gods

In his victory-celebration.

```

10596

```

To me,

The outer life

Is simply nothing.

```

10597

```

To me,

The inner life

Is something valuable.

```

10598

```

To me,

The God-surrendered life

Is essential, indispensable

And everything. ```

10599

```

Each person is imprisoned

By his mind’s pride

And

His life’s weaknesses. ```

10600

```

All life is inwardly one,

And all life is outwardly

Meant for change.

```

10601

```

Wise is the heart that loves to know

And wants to grow and glow

In the aspiring heart of humanity.

```

10602

```

O my mind, be wise, be careful!

Man-criticism-trap is always

Trying to tempt you.

```

10603

```

My God-gratitude-heart

Is God’s

Full satisfaction-meal.

```

10604

```

My sleepless God-obedience

Enjoys a God-meal inside God’s Heart

Served by God Himself.

```

10605

```

God’s Will is infinitely more proud

Of my God-surrendered life

Than my mind and I can ever imagine.

```

10606

```

If you have gratitude,

You must realise

That your gratitude has come

From God Himself. ```

10607

```

If God-fulfilment-service

Does not bring happiness to you,

That means there is something

Definitely wrong

With your God-service.

```

10608

```

If sincerity is missing

In your aspiration-heart

And dedication-life,

Then definitely you are going to reach

A stone wall in your spiritual life.

```

10609

```

I do not want to have a bridge

Between my aspiration-heart

And my desire-life.

```

10610

```

I want to have a bridge

Between my aspiration-heart

And my illumination-soul.

```

10611

```

My surrender to God’s Will

Rocks me in God’s

Softness-Tenderness-Cradle.

```

10612

```

When I meditate

Soulfully and powerfully,

The twinkling stars befriend me,

My heart, my mind and my God-hunger. ```

10613

```

Never try to measure

The capacity

Of your dreams.

```

10614

```

Each dream

Is not only immeasurable,

But unique in its own way.

```

10615

```

Before you enter into

The whirlpool of activities,

Calm your mind.

Then success and progress

Will be all yours.

```

10616

```

By virtue of our sleepless inner cries,

We definitely can enter into

A phenomenal state of consciousness.

```

10617

```

You have to depend

On your inner resources

To get life-energy.

```

10618

```

God is everywhere.

Therefore, He is bound to be

Inside your mind’s impurity-storm.

```

10619

```

God wants you to find Him

Not inside your mind’s impurity-storm,

But inside your heart’s purity-dawn.

```

10620

```

God-realisation-shore

Is far beyond our expectation-capacity,

Far beyond even our hope-capacity.

```

10621

```

God-realisation-shore

Is only in

The unconditional, blessingful

God-Capacity. ```

10622

```

God’s Hour

Our heart cannot

Expedite.

```

10623

```

God’s Hour

Our mind cannot

Delay.

```

10624

```

God’s Hour

Is fixed

By God Himself.

```

10625

```

God’s choice Hour,

Blessingful Hour,

Meaningful Hour,

Is selected by God Himself. ```

10626

```

Alas, I do not know

How long poor God can stand

Humanity’s deliberate

God-ignoring mind. ```

10627

```

A life of surrender

Will definitely reach the Goal

Where others have tried,

Only to fail. ```

10628

```

Alas, will the negativity-mind’s time

Ever be up

In God’s entire creation?

```

10629

```

Without peace-requirement,

How can the mind

Ever achieve enlightenment?

```

10630

```

O hesitation,

You have stayed for a long time

Inside my mind.

```

10631

```

O hesitation,

It is high time for you

To leave my mind,

And you must leave at once. ```

10632

```

I give God

What I have:

Surrender.

```

10633

```

God gives me

What He is:

Satisfaction.

```

10634

```

My heart, I do not know

How long you and I

Shall starve for God.

```

10635

```

But, my heart,

You and I do know

That God is all Compassion,

God is all-giving. ```

10636

```

Therefore, my heart,

Let us cultivate patience.

We came into the world to please God,

Only to please Him, in His own Way. ```

10637

```

Lethargy embodies

More undivine qualities

Than any other quality.

```

10638

```

Who can ever arrive

At the Golden Shore

Without having a true

God-love-sail? ```

10639

```

To scale the highest peak

In spirituality,

We needs must have

A mountain-high magnanimity-life. ```

10640

```

Although the roguish mind tells me

That my heart

Is in the basement of spirituality,

It is not true. ```

10641

```

God Himself tells me

That my heart

Is in the process of God-becoming,

And it is on the highest

Surrender-gratitude-flooded floor.

```

10642

```

God wants each and every seeker

To have

A love-ascending smile.

```

10643

```

God never wants a seeker

To enjoy

A hatred-descending frown.

```

10644

```

The moment I lose my God-hunger,

The moment I do not shed God-tears,

I find myself in the land of nowhere.

```

10645

```

There is no night,

Not even evening,

In my God-gratitude-day.

```

10646

```

When God insults

A dynamic seeker,

The seeker immediately

Changes his nature. ```

10647

```

When God insults

A lethargic seeker,

Poor God gets no response

Whatsoever. ```

10648

```

We can never separate

God the Will

And God the manifestation.

```

10649

```

It is the height of our stupidity

When we say God’s Will

Is one thing,

And God’s manifestation

Is totally different.

```

10650

```

The mind needs deep appreciation,

The heart needs profound adoration

To become the Beauty-Light-Delight

Of God’s Will. ```

10651

```

My Lord Beloved Supreme,

Do give me the capacity

To lose myself in the limitlessness

Of Your Heart’s Compassion-Sea. ```

10652

```

What we all need

Is an evergreen enthusiasm,

To make progress fast, faster, fastest

In our God-loving and God-serving life. ```

10653

```

To welcome humanity,

I shout and scream

And roar like a lion.

```

10654

```

To my Lord Beloved Supreme,

I offer my heart’s

Sweetness-whisper-welcome.

```

10655

```

Finally my God-surrendered breath

Has allowed me to blend

With the entire mankind.

```

10656

```

Dreams

Do not know

Any distances.

```

10657

```

Dreams know only one thing:

The Fragrance of God’s Heart

All-where.

```

10658

```

When I live in my ego-mind,

Greatness

Is my sweetness-goal.

```

10659

```

When I live in my aspiring heart,

Goodness

Is my fondness-goal.

```

10660

```

To evaluate our spiritual progress,

Every morning we must look into

Our conscience-mirror.

```

10661

```

God will give you

Not only everything that you long for

But everything that you will long for

In the near and distant future. ```

10662

```

My deep meditation makes me hear

The nectar-songs

Sung by the ever-transcending Beyond.

```

10663

```

Obstacles there are.

Again, eagerness and enthusiasm

Also are there

To overcome all obstacles —

Present and future.

```

10664

```

My Lord Supreme,

Please, please, please, at every moment,

Allow me and my life to live inside

Your Compassion-Protection-Feet. ```

10665

```

God tells me

That the real opportunity abides

Where my self-offering is.

```

10666

```

Every seeker must know

That the best in himself

Will not forever remain buried.

No, no, no! ```

10667

```

Every seeker must know

That everything that is good

And divine in him

Will come to the fore to love God,

Realise God and manifest God on earth.

```

10668

```

There is only one way

To raise the standard of our mind,

And that is the way

Of our God-Compassion-climbing heart. ```

10669

```

With experience

I examine myself,

My outer life.

```

10670

```

With realisation

I fulfil my life,

Inner and outer.

```

10671

```

The cries of my heart

And the dreams of my soul

Always live together.

```

10672

```

What a sweet happiness beckons us

When we see that we are only for

The fulfilment

Of our Lord Beloved Supreme. ```

10673

```

My Lord,

My heartbeats are all inside

Your unconditional Haven-Feet.

```

10674

```

My heart is so indulgent.

Again and again it clasps

My doubting and torturing mind.

```

10675

```

If we have genuine faith

In our spiritual life,

Then that faith

Must be exempt from insecurity,

Insincerity and impurity.

```

10676

```

O my heart,

Start again and again

To please God in His own Way.

```

10677

```

For me there is only one way:

God’s Choice

Is my only choice.

```

10678

```

God tells us that

There can be no defect

In our God-gratitude-heart-smile.

```

10679

```

We can never be

On the verge of self-discovery

If we do not feed sumptuously

Our God-hunger-heart. ```

10680

```

Do not allow

Your anger to feed

Your frustration.

```

10681

```

Do not allow

Your pride to feed

Your anger.

```

10682

```

When I worship God in silence,

I see myself millions of miles away

From my God-disobedience-downfall.

```

10683

```

Silence

Is not

My examiner.

```

10684

```

Silence

Is not even

My teacher.

```

10685

```

Silence

Is

My private tutor.

```

10686

```

God’s Vision you want?

Then envision God’s Feet

First.

```

10687

```

O my mind,

Be inspired once more.

End your God-service-retirement.

```

10688

```

The more we enjoy our lethargy-sleep,

The farther we take ourselves away

From our soul’s ecstasy deep.

```

10689

```

Science teaches us,

Either consciously or unconsciously,

To become friends with

God-doubt-existence. ```

10690

```

O my mind, you are a stark fool!

You want to evaluate my Lord Supreme

With your shamelessly

Stupid definitions. ```

10691

```

O my mind,

Your God-opinion

Is of no avail.

```

10692

```

O my mind,

You have wandered so far

From your own heart-home,

Your divinity’s reality-home. ```

10693

```

O my mind,

Are you so blind?

Will you forever remain so blind?

```

10694

```

It is high time for me

To escape from

My mind’s barren self-pity-desert.

```

10695

```

If there is no inner happiness-wealth,

How can there be proper

Outer manifestation

Of our Beloved Lord? ```

10696

```

My mind,

I have suffered so much

In your hands.

```

10697

```

My mind,

You must now end

Your fault-finding

And excuse-giving behaviour. ```

10698

```

God is always ready

To take our problems.

Alas, why do we not let Him

Worry about our problems —

Why?

```

10699

```

I was happy, my Lord,

When I was in Heaven.

I know it was You who made me happy.

```

10700

```

My Lord, when I was an infant,

I was happy.

I know it was You who made me happy.

```

10701

```

My Lord, I am so unhappy now.

Why, why?

Can You not once more make me happy

The way You made me happy

When I was in my infant-life

And when I was in my Heaven-life? ```

10702

```

The outer glories are futile.

The sooner we know it,

The better for us,

For our inner God-surrendering

And God-fulfilling life.

```

10703

```

Surrender is the master key

To our aspiration, realisation

And God-manifestation.

```

10704

```

Each time I say that

God is for God’s sake

And not for my sake,

My spirituality is only for God’s sake,

I immediately become

The possessor

Of an overflow of divine energy.

```

10705

```

I whistle my heart’s songs

To make myself

Prayerful and soulful

And to give myself

God-satisfying joy.

```

10706

```

I want to find myself all the time

Between my heart’s aspiration-tears

And my life’s dedication-smiles.

```

10707

```

The dream of the soul

Is always beautiful, indeed.

But the reality of the heart

Is infinitely more beautiful

And more fruitful.

```

10708

```

God tells me

To tell the whole world

That my God-surrender-heart

Knows everything, feels everything

And becomes everything.

```

10709

```

If we do not aspire

And live only the desire-life,

Then we are bound to remain

In the tentacles of the outer world. ```

10710

```

When we see God’s Victory

Here, there and all-where,

God’s Compassion-Eye

And Satisfaction-Heart follow us. ```

10711

```

Perfection does not

Have to remain

Always a far cry.

```

10712

```

Perfection can be within our easy reach

If God-satisfaction

Is our heart’s only cry.

```

10713

```

If I do not have

A love-smiling heart,

Then there is every possibility

That I shall fail. ```

10714

```

My Lord Supreme commands me

To sing with Him

And to smile at Him.

He tells me not to ask Him why. ```

10715

```

My self-discovery-quest

Is rapidly blooming

And shall most rapidly be blossoming.

```

10716

```

Meditation-depth

Is, indeed, the shortest distance

Between the God-seeker and God.

```

10717

```

We can never fly on the wings of ecstasy

If we constantly feed our curiosity-mind

And expectation-heart.

```

10718

```

Each time we increase our faith

In God and in ourselves,

We open up a new door

Of God-manifestation-opportunity. ```

10719

```

The oneness-cries

Of genuine God-seekers

Become eventually the fulness-smiles

Of God-discoverers. ```

10720

```

Mine is a God-loving

And God-fulfilling faith

That will always remain unfaded.

```

10721

```

God is

Extremely fond of

Our child-smiling eyes.

```

10722

```

Patience is of paramount importance

To put an end to the insanities

Of our desire-life.

```

10723

```

When all hearts are tuned

By God Himself,

Only then are we able to enjoy

The Peace, Beauty and Delight

Of God’s universal Existence.

```

10724

```

Each moment

Is blessed

By God Himself.

```

10725

```

Therefore, we must feel

Our inner purity

And

Our inner confidence

To manifest our Lord Supreme on earth.

```

10726

```

Meditation tells us that

We do not have to live

On expectations.

```

10727

```

Meditation tells us that

We do not have to live

On hopes.

```

10728

```

Meditation tells us that

We can live

On constantly blossoming,

Illumining and fulfilling realities. ```

10729

```

Today’s meditation-lovers

Tomorrow become

God-discoverers.

```

10730

```

Do not fly out of the outer world,

But remain in the outer world

With your oneness-sympathy,

Oneness-concern and oneness-affection. ```

10731

```

You will see, God will give you

What you actually need,

And also He will fulfil you

Far beyond your imagination. ```

10732

```

O my mind,

I am begging you again and again

To drop away from the desire-life.

```

10733

```

How long can you remain

Unsatisfied and unfulfilled,

O mind, flooded with stupidity?

```

10734

```

Meditation not only leads us

To the world of fortune,

But also makes us

Citizens of fortune-land. ```

10735

```

No mind,

With its brooding doubts,

Can ever dare to cloud

The brightest brightness of our soul. ```

10736

```

Patience,

Patience

Is of paramount importance.

```

10737

```

We cannot force

Our heart-lotus to blossom

To feed our sweet will.

No,

We have to wait

For our Lord’s choice Hour. ```

10738

```

I tell my life,

“My life, take up, take up

A new God-aspiration

And God-satisfaction-course.” ```

10739

```

Be not a fool!

No spiritual values

Can ever be obsolete.

```

10740

```

There shall come a time

When you will feel

That you have become

The very nature of God-readiness,

God-willingness

And God-eagerness-cries. ```

10741

```

Nobody ever likes your exclusiveness,

Not even our Compassion-flooded

Lord Supreme.

```

10742

```

Alas, we are so blind

That we do not know

That because of our doubting

And suspecting mind,

Our life is tied by the fetters

Of ignorance-night. ```

10743

```

Never compromise,

Never compromise,

Even if you are under severe criticism.

```

10744

```

Compromise

Is not

God’s Way.

```

10745

```

Illumination in self-realisation

And

Self-realisation in illumination

Are what we all need for the fulfilment

Of our aspiration-life.

```

10746

```

A self-giving life,

A God-loving heart

And

A God-serving supreme necessity

Can bless us with the Beauty-Fragrance

Of our Lord Supreme. ```

10747

```

Since we have chosen the path of Truth,

Since we have chosen God,

We have to feel

That He who has created

Our fellow human beings

Has infinitely more Love for them

Than we have.

```

10748

```

Sorrow can be transformed into light,

Light can be transformed into delight,

If so is the Will of God.

```

10749

```

To expedite the Will of God,

We must become a sea of sincerity-mind

And a sea of purity-heart.

```

10750

```

Our Lord Beloved Supreme

Never delays, never denies

Granting us all equal opportunities —

Never! ```

10751

```

My Lord sheds bitter tears

When I tell Him even playfully

That I am unfit to pray,

To meditate and to please Him. ```

10752

```

To say that you are not ready

For the spiritual life

Is to be on the wrong track of the mind.

```

10753

```

God definitely

Does not want you to browse

In the warehouse of your past lives.

```

10754

```

God wants you to roam in

And enjoy the beauty and fragrance of

Your present heart-garden.

```

10755

```

If we do not break asunder

Our attachment-chains,

Then excruciating pangs

Will never leave us. ```

10756

```

There is no other way

To create a better world

Than to surrender to God’s Will.

```

10757

```

Desire is false.

Whatever desire prompts us to do

Is false.

```

10758

```

Whatever we desire

In desire-life

Is false.

```

10759

```

Whatever we derive

From desire-life

Is all false.

```

10760

```

My Lord,

Why do You love

My heart-cries and life-tears?

```

10761

```

“My child, your heart-cries

And life-tears

Make you one with purity,

And this purity is the short-cut

To My Immortality’s Land.”

```

10762

```

My Lord Beloved Supreme,

Yesterday,

Out of Your infinite Forgiveness,

You chose me. ```

10763

```

My Lord Supreme,

Today,

Out of Your infinite Compassion,

You chose for me. ```

10764

```

For a God-doubter,

God remains far,

Very far.

```

10765

```

For a self-doubter,

God remains infinitely,

Infinitely, infinitely farther.

```

10766

```

A God-seeker and God-lover

Can find God instantly,

Provided his heart-tears

Are absolutely sincere and genuine. ```

10767

```

Humanity is nothing

But one heart, one breath

And one heartbeat.

Therefore, humanity’s God-realisation

Is definite and indispensable.

```

10768

```

God’s biggest frustration

Is not in our lack of illumination

But our lack of self-abnegation.

```

10769

```

Every morning

I challenge my doubting mind,

Conquer it, and place it at the feet

Of my God-loving, God-aspiring

And God-offering heart.

```

10770

```

Self-importance

Is definitely the beginning

Of my self-destruction.

```

10771

```

Why do I worry, why, why?

Precisely because I do not believe

In God-dependence, God-reliance,

God-cheerfulness and God-fulness

In God’s own Way, in my own life.

```

10772

```

We must

Listen to

Our inner dictates.

```

10773

```

Our inner dictates sing

Only God’s Victory-Songs

In and through our life.

```

10774

```

Science wants

Either to deny God

Or to bind God.

```

10775

```

Spirituality wants

To publicise God

And materialise God

Here on earth. ```

10776

```

I tell you once and for all,

Your existence in the vital

Is temporary.

```

10777

```

You can never stay permanently

In your vital,

For God’s Light

Is bound to enter into you

Through your God-oneness-heart.

```

10778

```

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. ```

10779

```

The mind thinks

That it knows

Everything.

```

10780

```

The heart feels

That it feels

Everything.

```

10781

```

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. ```

10782

```

Any uncomely thought

Can never fly

In our heart’s expanding sky.

```

10783

```

O my mind, you think you have

All the world-answers.

One day you will realise

The height of your stupidity. ```

10784

```

O my mind, are you not embarrassed

That all your predications

Have proved to be absolutely false?

```

10785

```

How can my progress-delight stop

If I continue to love

My Beloved Supreme

Every day, every hour, every minute

And every second?

```

10786

```

Depression is

My inner life’s

Unconscious poverty-confession.

```

10787

```

My Lord,

You never

Fail me.

```

10788

```

My Lord,

It is I who fail You

With my constant expectation

And frustration. ```

10789

```

I am ready to say good-bye

To each and everyone

And each and everything,

But never to my heart’s

Streaming tears and climbing cries.

```

10790

```

My Lord,

I prayed to You

And told You that I am all ready

To accept my fate. ```

10791

```

My Lord,

You are telling me no,

I must challenge fate,

I must conquer fate.

You are all for me.

```

10792

```

When I cherish evil thoughts,

Undivine thoughts,

God immediately leaves

My heart-shrine. ```

10793

```

My Lord,

They tell me that

I do not care for You.

```

10794

```

Is it true, my Lord?

If I do not care for You,

Whom do I care for?

```

10795

```

No, my Lord,

You are the only one I care for,

You are the only one I live for.

```

10796

```

My mind,

Always try to look within,

Dive within.

```

10797

```

Do not think

Your opinion

Is the only opinion.

```

10798

```

Each individual

Must have an opinion

Of his own.

```

10799

```

The desiring life

Is the birthplace

Of all human sorrows.

```

10800

```

May I please

My Lord Supreme

By placing the result of all my actions

At His Feet. ```

10801

```

I smile

Because my heart

Sweetly whispers.

```

10802

```

The purity-heart-armour

Has

No parallel.

```

10803

```

The compassion of the heart

Can easily turn

The aggression of the vital

To dust. ```

10804

```

At times

The reality is no match

For false fear.

```

10805

```

The fear of the mind

Enslaved

My heart.

```

10806

```

The courage of the soul

Has liberated

My entire life.

```

10807

```

I am looking

For my heart

To cry for God.

```

10808

```

My heart is looking for me

To come and sit

At God’s Compassion-flooded Feet.

```

10809

```

My Lord, I need to feel

Your Heart first,

And only then I need to see

Your Face. ```

10810

```

Aspire, dedicate

And surrender —

God will be all yours.

```

10811

```

Self-doubt

Is the most formidable adversary

Of a God-lover.

```

10812

```

May each and every aspiration-heart

Be brighter than the brightest

And purer than the purest.

```

10813

```

The language of the heart

Is derived from

God’s Compassion-Height.

```

10814

```

No heart will ever know

How bitter

The mind can be.

```

10815

```

No mind will ever know

How good

The heart can be.

```

10816

```

The great souls come into the world

To reverse the course

Of ignorance-current.

```

10817

```

We walk along the aspiration-road

To enter into

The realisation-palace.

```

10818

```

We must try to remember God

Even when our minds are in

The abysmal ignorance-abyss.

```

10819

```

The mind’s doubt-disease

Disfigures

The entire being.

```

10820

```

We relinquish

Anger

To establish peace.

```

10821

```

For your ceaselessly selfless service

You are going to get glowing praises

From God Himself.

```

10822

```

Doubt does have the rare capacity

To cause

A sudden spiritual death.

```

10823

```

The aspiration-heart

Must be fed every day

With faith.

```

10824

```

There is no ignorance-ill

That cannot be cured by

Determination-fire.

```

10825

```

What am I doing?

I am groping and groping

To grasp my Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

10826

```

What we all need

Is a unity-heart’s

Multiplicity-life.

```

10827

```

Divinity abides

In its fulness

Only in a God-surrendering life.

```

10828

```

The inner beauty

And

The outer plenitude

Must go together. ```

10829

```

Despair-fever

Is indeed

A fatal disease.

```

10830

```

Together

Life and death enjoy

Their inner composition.

```

10831

```

Life and death

Enjoy

Their outer opposition.

```

10832

```

A God-listener enjoys

God’s infinite Bliss

In infinite ways.

```

10833

```

God is so near.

Yet our hearts cannot clasp God

Because of our division-loving minds.

```

10834

```

Mother Earth,

I am extremely proud

Of your hope-heart-tears.

```

10835

```

Father Heaven,

I am extremely proud

Of your promise-soul-smiles.

```

10836

```

Every day my heart and I

Sound our victory-trumpet

Over the mind’s doubt.

```

10837

```

When man is man’s

Progress-song,

God is God’s

Success-Dance. ```

10838

```

Something is definitely wrong with me

If I do not lose my breath

When I look at my Lord Supreme.

```

10839

```

My Lord Supreme,

My heart, my mind, my vital

And even my body are now eager

To be Your faithful instruments. ```

10840

```

In my Lord’s Eye

I must see the mirror

Of my aspiration-existence.

```

10841

```

Never allow the frightening eyes

Of the hostile forces

To frighten you.

```

10842

```

My Lord,

I am not asking You

To forgive me at this very moment.

I am asking You

If You will ever forgive me.

```

10843

```

To me, any depression

Is unwanted

And fathomless.

```

10844

```

My Lord, my mind is ready,

My life is willing

And my heart is eager

Only by Your Grace infinite. ```

10845

```

My Lord Beloved

Does not mind

When I overestimate my mind.

```

10846

```

My Lord Beloved

Does mind

When I underestimate my heart.

```

10847

```

My doubting mind,

One day time will prove

That my loving heart

Is always right. ```

10848

```

When I say that I love God only,

The cosmic gods immediately fly

My Lord’s Victory-Banner.

```

10849

```

My Lord, I cannot,

But You can.

Do take away my ruthless pride.

```

10850

```

My Lord, not when I look at You,

But when I sit at Your Feet,

I discover that I belong

Only to You. ```

10851

```

The tears of the aspiration-heart

Are extremely, extremely

Beautiful.

```

10852

```

The smiles of the realisation-soul

Are extremely, extremely

Blissful.

```

10853

```

Mind-crucifixion

Is undoubtedly

An easy task.

```

10854

```

Mind-illumination

Is an extremely

Difficult task.

```

10855

```

My only message to You,

My Lord:

I love to live only to please You.

```

10856

```

Real spirituality

Needs both patience-light

And speed-delight.

```

10857

```

If I am the culprit

In delaying my Lord’s

World-transformation-Vision,

Then I shall kill myself. ```

10858

```

Only the eagerness

Of the heart

Can act at a moment’s notice.

```

10859

```

Not to repeat God’s Name

Is nothing short of wasting

Our precious breath.

```

10860

```

What I always need

Is

A God-Protection-mind.

```

10861

```

What I always need

Is

A God-Satisfaction-heart.

```

10862

```

What I always need

Is

A God-Perfection-life.

```

10863

```

The world

Has rejected

Even my sincerity-heart.

```

10864

```

God

Has accepted

Even my insincerity-mind.

```

10865

```

I tell my mind

That it does not have to

Give up anything.

```

10866

```

I tell my heart,

“Wake up, my heart, wake up!

You have a very long way to go

To reach God’s Golden Palace.” ```

10867

```

He who is divinely wise

Will definitely try to maximise

His inner life-wealth

And

His outer life-satisfaction.

```

10868

```

A happy life

And

A worried mind

Are not visible together. ```

10869

```

Desire-temptation

Never waits

For an invitation.

```

10870

```

To my greatest joy,

You fell down

Only to climb higher,

Almost the highest. ```

10871

```

My Master’s Compassion-Eye

Is my heart’s

Only hope.

```

10872

```

There are many

Ignorance-emergency exits.

The seeker must seriously

And sincerely look for them. ```

10873

```

God’s Love-Delight is only where

Our minds are sincere

And our hearts are pure.

```

10874

```

On aspiration-wings

The speed can be

Staggering.

```

10875

```

Peace-dreamers’ forward,

Upward and inward progress

Is absolutely authentic.

```

10876

```

When the life expands,

The heart becomes

A fountain-joy.

```

10877

```

There can be no

Perfection-achievement

Without limitless efforts.

```

10878

```

Divinity’s Oneness-Soul

Sooner or later

Will be manifested

As Divinity’s Fulness-Heart. ```

10879

```

Each time I see my soul,

I become

A fresh spring of newness.

```

10880

```

Each aspiration-flame

Is a divine guide

To Heaven’s Gate.

```

10881

```

May my heart

Be beauty’s

Sweetness-song.

```

10882

```

May my heart

Be purity’s

Fondness-song.

```

10883

```

May my life

Be divinity’s

Fragrance-song.

```

10884

```

Our friendship with God only

Needs no repair.

Otherwise,

Human friendship

Needs nothing short of

Constant repair. ```

10885

```

If you really want

To run and fly fast,

Then convince your mind

That you have no future. ```

10886

```

May all seekers’ lives

Be perfect strangers

To any spiritual fall.

```

10887

```

May every morning

I become my heart’s

God-gratitude-bloom.

```

10888

```

May my Lord never listen

To even one single

Desire-prayer of mine.

```

10889

```

The mind begs God

For greatness

Constantly.

```

10890

```

The heart begs God

For goodness

Occasionally.

```

10891

```

The life begs God

For fulness

Rarely.

```

10892

```

I forget to beg God

For perfection

Permanently.

```

10893

```

Each God-singing breath

Is a real threat

To death.

```

10894

```

When the mind

Gives lectures on sincerity,

God laughs and laughs.

```

10895

```

When the heart

Speaks on purity,

God cannot stop laughing.

```

10896

```

When the life

Speaks on perfection,

God immediately leaves the audience.

```

10897

```

God expects

Each and every human life

To be a clarion call.

```

10898

```

God expects

Each and every human being

To have a flower-purity-heart.

```

10899

```

God expects

Each and every minute

To be sincerity-beauty.

```

10900

```

My helpless orphan-tears

Only my Lord Beloved Supreme

Claims as His own, very own.

```

10901

```

My soul knows

Who God is and where God is,

But does not tell.

```

10902

```

My mind knows not

Who God is and where God is,

But it tells.

```

10903

```

I greedily treasure

My little ant-thoughts

In my outer life.

```

10904

```

God proudly treasures

My lion-strength-will

In my inner life.

```

10905

```

When I walk up

My hope-mountain,

God beckons me

From His Promise-Land. ```

10906

```

May my heart become

A speedboat that can cross

The sea of ignorance-night.

```

10907

```

My Lord Supreme,

Do remove me from

My life’s sadness-shore

Once and for all. ```

10908

```

God is God’s

World-illumining

Compassion infinite.

```

10909

```

My Lord, You are the only one

To whom I can offer

My prayerful, soulful moments.

```

10910

```

Gratitude can transform

Our life

Sooner than anything else.

```

10911

```

If you have determination-power,

Then use it once and for all

To increase the beauty, the light

And the delight of your aspiration. ```

10912

```

It is extremely difficult

For the heart to win the mind

For God to use.

```

10913

```

My Lord,

May I be ready every day

At Your first Call.

```

10914

```

Humility and hospitality may not

Bind all hearts together,

But spirituality can

And spirituality does. ```

10915

```

If you are a seeker,

Then you must long for

The limitless, sleepless and breathless

God-hunger. ```

10916

```

Man lives

To serve

God the Head.

```

10917

```

God lives

To serve

Man the foot.

```

10918

```

My homeland is where

God the creation cries

And God the Creator smiles.

```

10919

```

How are you going to be

A chosen instrument of God

If you do not want to learn

The obedience-alphabet first? ```

10920

```

What am I doing?

Every day, every hour, every minute

I am arranging and rearranging

My life for God. ```

10921

```

God is accustomed

To visiting only

Heavenly places on earth.

```

10922

```

God-realisation-seed

Has to be discovered

Here on earth.

```

10923

```

In Heaven

God-Victory-Trumpet

Is available everywhere.

```

10924

```

The world may not

Like to remain

Under Heaven’s law.

```

10925

```

But Mother Earth

Enjoys remaining

Under Heaven’s law.

```

10926

```

Once a day all the life-members

Must report to their Heavenly teacher:

The soul.

```

10927

```

Each seeker

Must be fluent

In his heart-silence-language.

```

10928

```

The compassion of the spiritual Master

Is the life-breath

Of the seeker’s soul.

```

10929

```

If anything can keep my heart

From God,

Then I am not ready

For the spiritual life. ```

10930

```

Heaven’s Blessings I need

As the only audience

When I speak about my Lord Supreme.

```

10931

```

The mind

Is always ready

To challenge the heart.

```

10932

```

The heart

Is always ready

To embrace the mind.

```

10933

```

There was a time

When I used to leave everything

In the Hands of my Lord Supreme.

```

10934

```

Now I have discovered

An infinitely better place.

I place everything

At the Feet of my Lord Supreme. ```

10935

```

Human beings

Are made of God’s

Never-ending Tears.

```

10936

```

Divine beings

Are made of God’s

Ever-blossoming Smiles.

```

10937

```

My Lord Supreme has closed

My outer life on all sides

So that my inner life can have

A free access to His Heart. ```

10938

```

When God invites us

To His Heart-Home,

Our gratitude-present

He loves the most. ```

10939

```

We invoke God,

But when He wants to have

His own Way in our lives,

We revolt. ```

10940

```

If it is an aspiration-heart,

Then it must love to receive

Wisdom-light directly from

The all-illumination-soul. ```

10941

```

Humanity’s collective peace-dream

Is keeping God alive

On earth.

```

10942

```

A doubtful mind

Remains indefinitely

In chronic ignorance-condition.

```

10943

```

Self-giving

Is indeed

A God-realisation-seed.

```

10944

```

The soul has become

So close to the Supreme

Precisely because the soul has

Its volcanic will-power. ```

10945

```

My Lord, may I not be liberated

Once and for all

From the prison of my empty hope?

```

10946

```

The Master’s heart never fails,

The Master’s eyes do not fail,

Even the Master’s mind does not fail

When he is dealing

With his choice disciples.

```

10947

```

Divinity’s front door

Is accessible only when

We soulfully invoke

God’s Compassion-flooded Eye. ```

10948

```

My life’s marching songs

I have learnt from my Lord’s

Adamantine Will.

```

10949

```

A seeker’s purity-mind

Is God’s

Colossal Pride.

```

10950

```

My Lord asks me

Not to try to surprise Him.

He wants me only to thrive.

```

10951

```

If I do not forgive myself,

God says that He will not

Open His Heart-Door.

```

10952

```

When I am not with God,

I tell Him

To take my life.

```

10953

```

When I am with God,

I tell Him

To make my life.

```

10954

```

Yesterday

God saw me in the street

And said hello to my mind.

```

10955

```

Today

God is inviting my heart

To come to His Heart-Home.

```

10956

```

Tomorrow

God will ask me to take away

Some responsibility

From His overloaded Shoulders. ```

10957

```

My heart

Despairs.

My soul

Repairs. ```

10958

```

At last I have

The capacity to disarm

All my desires.

```

10959

```

My life is infallible and invincible

When I follow the Footsteps

Of my Inner Pilot.

```

10960

```

Self-criticism

Is the most

Dangerous poison.

```

10961

```

May each and every heart

Be engraved with greatness-height

And goodness-depth.

```

10962

```

A frustrated man

Vehemently

Criticises God.

```

10963

```

A liberated man

Establishes

God on earth.

```

10964

```

God

Is not

A questioning mind.

```

10965

```

God

Is

An answering heart.

```

10966

```

We fly

High, higher, highest

With our hope-kite.

```

10967

```

God wants me

To stop walking

With my life’s sadness-tears.

```

10968

```

God wants me

To fly

With my heart’s happiness-smiles.

```

10969

```

Our sincerity-smile

Is

Our God-revelation.

```

10970

```

O my mind,

Be not caged

Inside your indifference.

```

10971

```

A purity-heart

Is God’s

True Satisfaction.

```

10972

```

My imperfection-life

Is worse

Than subhuman.

```

10973

```

My God-nearness-life

Is God’s

Fulness-Promise-manifestation.

```

10974

```

Believe it or not,

God embraces

Every sigh.

```

10975

```

My Lord, every day

I make a desperate attempt

To please You in Your own Way.

```

10976

```

Do not allow yourself

To be assailed

By your past wild adversaries.

```

10977

```

The aspiration-cry of a human being

Is definitely made of God’s

Ever-blossoming Compassion-Heart.

```

10978

```

My Lord Supreme, my heart

Is always eager to serve You.

I beg of You to give me

Something to do for You. ```

10979

```

Peace is born

Only in God’s

Self-expansion-Light.

```

10980

```

May my earthly dreams

Give my Heavenly friends

Tremendous joy.

```

10981

```

My heart’s aspiration-tears

Are made of

My gratitude-life.

```

10982

```

My Lord shows me how to send

All my worthless and useless thoughts

To the ignorance-kingdom

Of my remote past. ```

10983

```

God does not believe

In my mind’s sincerity

At all.

```

10984

```

God believes only

In my heart’s flaming

Aspiration-tears.

```

10985

```

God invites my aspiration-heart,

Dedication-life and self-giving-breath

To walk with Him

In His Ecstasy-Bliss-Garden. ```

10986

```

My gratitude-heart quenches

My Lord’s burning Thirst

And feeds His dying Hunger.

```

10987

```

Right beside me,

Inside my tinier than the tiniest cottage,

My Lord Beloved Supreme abides.

```

10988

```

A confusion-mind

Is bound to cry

Eventually.

```

10989

```

An aspiration-heart

Is bound to fly

Eventually.

```

10990

```

I dream day and night

Reality-dreams

To be a choice instrument

Of my Absolute Lord Supreme. ```

10991

```

My Lord Supreme,

I have nothing else to offer You

Save and except

My gratitude-heart-tears. ```

10992

```

Since I do not know at what time

My Lord Supreme will call me,

I remain awake

Along with my sleepless heart

And await His Call.

```

10993

```

Offer your brightest smiles

And, at the same time,

Your saddest tears

To Your Lord Supreme,

Him to please in His own Way.

```

10994

```

What do I hear

During my deep meditation?

I hear

Only the whispers

Of my Lord’s Compassion-Voice.

```

10995

```

If the heart is missing,

Then the body can never take

The fastest God-satisfaction-start.

```

10996

```

My Lord Supreme,

I have pleased You

At Your Feet.

```

10997

```

My Lord Supreme,

Now I want to please You

At a distance.

```

10998

```

My Lord Supreme,

I want to please You wherever

I can think of You,

I can pray to You

And I can meditate on You.

```

10999

```

My rainbow-dreams

Every morning fly

In my heart-sky.

```

11000

```

My Lord,

I see Your Footprints,

Even with my eyes closed,

Inside my heart-garden. ```
