Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees, part 15

14001

```

He who is all the time

In God and for God,

Consciously and self-givingly,

Is indeed the person

To be the torch-bearer

Of the New Millennium. ```

14002

```

In the New Millennium

God expects

From each and every human being

A new hope-dawn

And a new sun-day.

```

14003

```

Each seeker must grow into

The beauty and fragrance

Of his own

Transcendental height. ```

14004

```

May my devotion-heart-river

Flow quickly and dauntlessly

Towards my Lord’s Compassion-Sea.

```

14005

```

A sterling privilege:

To collect the golden dust

Of the Master’s feet.

```

14006

```

May my life reveal

God’s blessingful Presence

At every moment.

```

14007

```

When I saw God

And His smiling Face

For the first time,

I was excited. ```

14008

```

When I saw God

And His climbing Eye

For the first time,

I was delighted. ```

14009

```

When I saw God

And His descending Feet

For the first time,

I was liberated. ```

14010

```

A desiring mind

A painful experience.

```

14011

```

A self-giving heart

A fruitful realisation.

```

14012

```

We are definitely responsible

For our own self-built

Life-disobedience-mind-disasters.

```

14013

```

O my Lord Supreme,

Do give me a little faster speed

So that I can please You

A little more

In my daily activities.

```

14014

```

If you do not search

For God’s Light,

Then your heart’s joy

Will never start. ```

14015

```

There can be no peace,

There can be no bliss,

Before we make our total

And unconditional surrender. ```

14016

```

May our peace-search

Be our only

Code of life.

```

14017

```

With a second-rate

Enthusiasm and eagerness,

We can never satisfy

Our Lord Beloved Supreme. ```

14018

```

How strange is our mind!

It treasures

A zig-zag course!

```

14019

```

An aura of peace

We are bound to possess

If self-offering

Is our sole duty. ```

14020

```

There is

No such thing

As an insoluble problem.

```

14021

```

O my Lord Supreme,

Do anything you want

With my poor life, my ungrateful life,

But do not disown me. ```

14022

```

The confusion

Of the mind

Is dangerously contagious.

```

14023

```

Desire-life eventually

Proves to be

A life of useless death.

```

14024

```

Impurity and insincerity

Are always engaged in

Mutual destruction.

```

14025

```

To see a constantly

Self-giving human being

Is beyond the farthest reaches

Of my imagination. ```

14026

```

There are so many individuals

On earth

Who just pay lip-service

To the spiritual divinity. ```

14027

```

I must not allow

My mind’s God-curiosity

To masquerade as divine wisdom.

```

14028

```

Our lasting faith in God

Dissolves all the doubts

Of our mind.

```

14029

```

O my Lord Supreme,

Do hold me in the Protection-Palm

Of Your Compassion-Hand.

```

14030

```

It is a deplorable experience

That spirituality remains remote

From most human beings.

```

14031

```

A human life comes and goes

Just like the flicker

Of an eye.

```

14032

```

Everybody is afraid

Of ruining his reputation,

But does anybody care

About building

An aspiration-palace?

```

14033

```

I must control

The mounting frustration

Of my unaspiring mind.

```

14034

```

Only spiritual God-lions

Can feed me

And my self-confidence.

```

14035

```

I must increase every day

My heart-faith in God

So that I can lessen

My mind-torture. ```

14036

```

When the ultimate time comes,

Nobody can postpone

The inevitable approach of death.

```

14037

```

To try to conquer self-doubt

Without God’s special Grace

Is like dashing against

Impossibility-rocks. ```

14038

```

I must arrest

My mind’s

Downward course.

```

14039

```

When a sincere seeker

Does not aspire regularly,

He is bound to be engulfed

By failure-sadness. ```

14040

```

Do not allow fear

To have any access

To your aspiration-heart.

```

14041

```

My Lord,

Even for a fleeting second,

I shall not give up

My prayerful and soulful

Service to You.

```

14042

```

Today’s orphan-cry

Can tomorrow become

An emperor-smile

Without fail. ```

14043

```

There is no impossibility-summit

That our aspiration-heart

Cannot climb up.

```

14044

```

Death has no access

To the soul.

It only has access

To our weak and fragile body. ```

14045

```

Greatness-tower

Does not have

A lasting life.

```

14046

```

May we all be worthy

Of our soul’s

Goodness-power.

```

14047

```

Readiness, willingness and eagerness

Are definitely

Added advantages.

```

14048

```

When our service-life

Decreases,

It is a real deplorable disgrace.

```

14049

```

O seeker, be not afraid

Of the mind’s impure thoughts.

These impure thoughts can be purified

By the presence of the soul and its light. ```

14050

```

Every day we cannot expect

The same opportunity.

Therefore, take full advantage

Of each opportunity

When it arrives.

```

14051

```

The aspiration-heart

And dedication-hands

Must go together

To accomplish

The God-manifestation-task.

```

14052

```

My Lord Supreme,

May Your Nectar-Name

Echo and re-echo

In my aspiration-heart-garden. ```

14053

```

Each individual must try to become

A living dynamo of God-manifestation

And God-satisfaction.

```

14054

```

Procrastination

Can never reach

The Golden Shore.

```

14055

```

A self-giving seeker

Can see and hear God singing

Everywhere.

```

14056

```

A good life

Is a bright Smile

That descends from God.

```

14057

```

Gratitude gets always

A quick response

From God Himself.

```

14058

```

My heart’s ever-growing gratitude

I am offering

To the length and breadth

Of the whole world. ```

14059

```

What I need is

A new rising sun

To illumine

My darkness-mind. ```

14060

```

Everybody

Is expected to bask

In earth’s sunshine-smile.

```

14061

```

The mind that manufactures excuses

Will never be able to arrive

At the God-manifestation-shore.

```

14062

```

Do not inform others

That you have

Reformed yourself.

```

14063

```

If you have reformed yourself,

Then it will be God’s Task

To tell the whole world,

And not yours. ```

14064

```

I must compel

My doubting mind

To resign once and for all.

```

14065

```

Aspire most sincerely

And most self-givingly.

Then you will be able to steer

Your life-boat safely

Towards the Golden Shore.

```

14066

```

A boundless supply of God-eagerness

Is what we need

To manifest God on earth

In unmistakable terms. ```

14067

```

Why do you enjoy

Your distant relationship

With your soul?

Make the distance

As short as possible.

```

14068

```

Self-giving itself

Is a monumental

God-manifestation.

```

14069

```

I am so happy and proud

That my soul definitely loves

And enjoys

My heart-garden. ```

14070

```

To be bound

By God’s Compassion

Is to be totally free.

```

14071

```

Is there any negativity-mind

That does not constantly

Quarrel with God?

```

14072

```

The heart is always eager

To offer peace

To the mind.

```

14073

```

God-disobedience-seekers

Are those who truly

Have no divine faith

In themselves. ```

14074

```

The mind has to be awakened,

Without fail,

From its lifelong sleep.

```

14075

```

Do not allow your mind

To be always a foreigner

To your heart.

```

14076

```

We must sing every day

A few soulful songs

So that we can carry

Our aspiration-heart

To Heaven’s Golden Gate.

```

14077

```

Do not allow temptation

To sit

On your mind-throne.

```

14078

```

O my devotion-heart,

Do tell me

Where you come from

And

Where you are going.

```

14079

```

My God-devotion embodies

The newness of my mind,

The sweetness of my heart

And

The fulness of my life.

```

14080

```

Each act of disobedience

Will meet with retribution

At God’s choice Hour.

```

14081

```

My mind calls it

A drop of disobedience.

My heart calls it

An ocean of defiance. ```

14082

```

Only a God-aspiring seeker

Can transform the sorrows of life

Into the joys of the heart.

```

14083

```

May my life be

At every moment

Resonant

With fire-pure devotion. ```

14084

```

My Lord, I shall give

And give to You

Until I can claim

Nothing as my own. ```

14085

```

By virtue of

My devotion-cultivation,

I shall have to realise God.

```

14086

```

What kind of heart is it

If it cannot touch

God’s Feet?

```

14087

```

What kind of breath is it

If it cannot pray

To God?

```

14088

```

I must give to God

Not according to

My mind’s willingness

But according to

My heart’s eagerness.

```

14089

```

My Lord, I need

Your express Sanction

In all my earthly activities.

```

14090

```

If devotion

Does not succeed,

The heart can never proceed.

```

14091

```

Each time I think of God,

A new God-surrender

Awakens in my heart.

```

14092

```

My Lord, do force me

To surrender to You

Constantly and completely.

```

14093

```

If you do not recognise God

In human form,

Then you will not be able

To recognise God

In His divine Form either.

```

14094

```

Not only God’s Presence

Is overwhelming,

But also His absence.

```

14095

```

Each moment is meant

For fresh God-renewal

In the depths of our hearts.

```

14096

```

There is only one true necessity,

And that is our sleepless

God-invocation.

```

14097

```

God’s divine Magnificence

Is not meant for description

But for aspiration.

```

14098

```

Where do I want to live?

I want to live at my Lord’s

Compassion-flooded Feet

All the time. ```

14099

```

Only a full-hearted,

God-surrendered soul

Can collect

Divinity’s bumper crop. ```

14100

```

I treasure only one thing:

My Lord’s all-forgiving

Compassion-Eye.

```

14101

```

You can always do

The right thing

If you meditate and meditate

And meditate. ```

14102

```

When you meditate,

Feel that both your eyes

Are swimming in your heart-river

With tremendous joy. ```

14103

```

If you can see and feel your heart-river

Flowing into the vast sea,

You will have true inner happiness.

```

14104

```

If you have inner happiness —

Not pleasure —

You will never make a mistake.

```

14105

```

O God,

You stay inside

My small heart,

But not inside

My big mouth.

```

14106

```

How can you never have any fear?

Only by having

Oneness, oneness, oneness.

```

14107

```

How can you get more energy?

Only by challenging

What is dissatisfying you

Inside yourself. ```

14108

```

Just challenge

Your own mind or vital

To muster

All your courage and energy! ```

14109

```

How can you have more gratitude?

Only by having

True devotion.

```

14110

```

If you want to get

The full quantity

Of God’s Blessings,

Just try to make a little progress

Based on your oneness-heart.

```

14111

```

Devotion is the sweetest magnet

In our life

To draw all the divine qualities.

```

14112

```

When devotion-magnet goes away,

One cannot keep gratitude

Or any divine quality.

```

14113

```

God is playing with us

Like a tennis ball,

Consciously throwing us

Here and there,

To be His perfect instrument.

```

14114

```

God always thinks of you

As His dream —

Not an old dream,

But an ever-blossoming dream. ```

14115

```

Every day,

But especially on your birthday,

God thinks of you as a unique dream

Of His own Divinity. ```

14116

```

Care not for the development

Only of the mind,

But also of the heart

And the dynamic vital. ```

14117

```

Consciously fight against dissatisfaction!

Otherwise, satisfaction will not come,

No matter what you do.

```

14118

```

Even if we get

What we want,

Satisfaction may not dawn.

```

14119

```

Dissatisfaction

Takes away all our joy

And dynamism.

```

14120

```

Anything that has to be illumined,

We must illumine

Without fail.

```

14121

```

Anything that has to be discarded,

We must discard

Without fail.

```

14122

```

The very root

Of the human tree

Is the Supreme.

```

14123

```

My Lord, I love You —

For all that You are

To the world

And all that You have

For the world.

```

14124

```

My Lord,

Do give me the capacity

To offer my good will

To every human being

In Your entire creation.

```

14125

```

Forget!

Forget the past

In your mind, vital and body.

```

14126

```

Accept!

Accept your soul-capacities

And soul-potentialities.

```

14127

```

We have to feel as much as possible

That we are not the physical body

But the celestial soul.

```

14128

```

The soul is not mental hallucination

But reality —

The divinity inside us.

```

14129

```

Let us open our heart at every moment

Prayerfully and self-givingly

To the soul,

The God-representative

Inside us.

```

14130

```

The soul is birthless and deathless,

But we must pray and meditate,

To give it the service-strength

To manifest God’s Will

On earth.

```

14131

```

My sleeping mind

Must first be awakened

And then finally illumined.

```

14132

```

When your soul’s light

Is powerfully working

Inside your heart and mind,

You say and do

The right thing.

```

14133

```

While you were singing

The forgiveness-song

From the inmost recesses

Of your heart,

Your Lord Supreme was swimming

In the sea of ecstasy. ```

14134

```

When someone’s Hour has not struck,

Our well-intentioned advice

May only expedite his destruction.

```

14135

```

When the awakened mind feels

A vast consciousness entering into it,

It blossoms like a flower-heart.

```

14136

```

The awakened mind

May not always have

The necessary wisdom

To do the right thing. ```

14137

```

The awakened mind

May show kindness

To those who not only do not deserve it

But also misuse it — alas! ```

14138

```

Generosity and charity

Must be guided by the inner light

To avoid

Even unconscious mistakes. ```

14139

```

To throw cold water

On poor God’s manifestation

Is to drink poison.

```

14140

```

To prune the branches

Of jealousy-insecurity-impurity-tree

Is to drink nectar.

```

14141

```

Emulate others’ many good qualities

Instead of maliciously bringing forward

Their bad qualities.

```

14142

```

If we enter into gossip

About somebody’s inner or outer life,

That is the moment we descend.

```

14143

```

O seeker, do not drink poison

With the world

In the hope that the world will come

To drink nectar with you someday. ```

14144

```

When we get joy,

Let us sleeplessly continue

Doing the right thing

To receive

More joy and abundant joy.

```

14145

```

Let not curiosity change our direction

Along the joy-road

To a backward march.

```

14146

```

After making the same mistake

Many times,

We begin to feel it is not a mistake,

But the right thing after all. ```

14147

```

Alas, a mistake can sow the seed

That grows into a poisonous plant,

Producing poisonous fruits.

```

14148

```

If you can separate dream

From reality,

You will not make mistakes.

```

14149

```

God begs all His children

To give Him the responsibility

For their lives.

```

14150

```

Offer your mistakes to God tearfully.

Lo, your problems

Will no more return.

```

14151

```

The Supreme’s Smile lasts and lasts

And takes away all suffering

And frustration

In the seeker’s life. ```

14152

```

Even if our progress lasts

For only a minute,

The Supreme feels it is

A great achievement. ```

14153

```

Our self-giving

Is our true inner life —

Our inner hunger for truth,

Delight, beauty and perfection. ```

14154

```

If I have a pure heart,

My outer actions

Will also be pure.

```

14155

```

God is both the Creator and creation,

But the Vision of God came first

And then the manifestation of God.

```

14156

```

Our physical capacity

Is the direct result

Of our inner aspiration-capacity.

```

14157

```

It is our inner attitude

That is of supreme importance

To how we act and react outwardly.

```

14158

```

Aspiration and dedication go together.

To be precise,

The inner life of aspiration

Leads and guides

The outer life of dedication.

```

14159

```

If I am not guided by inner strength

And good will,

Then I will be nowhere

In the outer life. ```

14160

```

Always I transcend and transcend.

How?

Just by competing only with myself.

```

14161

```

In this world we are truly happy

Only when we make progress,

Which gives us true satisfaction.

```

14162

```

If we are satisfied with what we have

And do not want to go forward,

Then we will never have

Abiding happiness. ```

14163

```

Competition with others

May bring to the fore

Rivalry and destruction.

```

14164

```

Competition with oneself

Purifies the inner existence

In order to improve

In the outer life. ```

14165

```

Self-transcendence depends

On inner purity, love, vastness,

Oneness and universal good will.

```

14166

```

Why do we play sports?

To develop fellow feeling;

To serve humanity.

```

14167

```

Why do we watch sports?

To receive inspiration, enthusiasm,

Joy and courage.

```

14168

```

As time advances,

We must not allow incapacity

And frustration

To lord it over us. ```

14169

```

As time advances,

We must stay on the same road

To reach our destination.

```

14170

```

As time advances,

We must defy the attack

Of self-doubt, frustration

And failure. ```

14171

```

As time advances,

Willingness and eagerness

Must remain

Our lifelong friends. ```

14172

```

Wisdom-light tells us

That we do not belong

To fleeting time.

We belong to Time eternal. ```

14173

```

We must run along Eternity’s Road,

Challenging the giant pride

Of self-doubt.

```

14174

```

Let us bravely,

Smilingly and proudly

Challenge the pride

Of impossibility. ```

14175

```

This world has everything

Save and except one thing,

Peace,

And this peace has to blossom

From within.

```

14176

```

If I have peace of mind,

Then only can I be

Of help to others.

```

14177

```

Not by talking, but by praying

And becoming something good,

Can we offer peace to the world.

```

14178

```

Soulful music does not stimulate

Our vital,

But increases our inner hunger,

Which is love of God. ```

14179

```

One peaceful moment

Can give us indomitable strength

In our outer activities.

```

14180

```

In our inner life

If we have the confidence-strength

Of an elephant,

Then in our outer life

We can have peace.

```

14181

```

We are bound to be successful

When we face the outer life

With our inner meditation-light.

```

14182

```

Each religion

Is a different branch

Of the same life-tree.

```

14183

```

My prayer and meditation

Have made me realise

That love of God

Is the only religion. ```

14184

```

If we truly love God,

We will cherish all religions

In the depth of our heart.

```

14185

```

If we do not love God,

There may be no end

To our quarrelling and fighting

With all religions. ```

14186

```

The world is indeed one family —

Sisters and brothers

With the same Father:

God. ```

14187

```

The world is indeed one family —

Different names and faces,

But all are children of God.

```

14188

```

From country to country we go

To feel our oneness

With all God’s children.

```

14189

```

From country to country we go

To offer our brothers and sisters

Our love and feeling of oneness.

```

14190

```

After many, many years or centuries,

Humanity will come to realise

That without light

There can be no true satisfaction. ```

14191

```

How long can the world deny the light?

The day will come when the world

Will be sick of its darkness.

```

14192

```

Those who believe in God

Have already

Seen the light.

```

14193

```

There is no end

To the amount of light we can have:

More light, abundant light, infinite light.

```

14194

```

If we criticise those living in darkness,

Their anger will definitely delay

Our own progress.

```

14195

```

If you offer others concern

And compassion,

Their good will can only expedite

Our own progress. ```

14196

```

The highest philosophy

Is the philosophy

Of oneness.

```

14197

```

We fight against the world

Precisely because

We do not have an iota of peace

Inside our own hearts. ```

14198

```

We fight against the world

Precisely because inwardly

We feel we are weak.

```

14199

```

If we feel inwardly strong,

We will have no need or desire

To speak ill of others.

```

14200

```

If we have peace inside our hearts,

Then there will be nobody

Whom we shall not love.

```

14201

```

Without heart-cultivation,

There can be no

God-realisation.

```

14202

```

Poor mind!

It is so pathetic

That it cannot give up

Doubting! ```

14203

```

A seeker of unconditional surrender

Is, indeed,

The possessor of abundance.

```

14204

```

When the surrender-bud

Blooms,

God-realisation

Is imminent. ```

14205

```

My Lord, I wish to live

Deep in the heart

Of Your Compassion-Sea.

```

14206

```

We must offer ourselves

To the unhorizoned

Vastness.

```

14207

```

The mind

Remains ignorant

Of God-obedience-path.

```

14208

```

Only the awakened heart

Can see the inner sunlight

Streaming through life.

```

14209

```

My Lord,

May my thoughts and I

Get shelter

At Your Heart-Door? ```

14210

```

Our heart’s gratitude-tears

Shorten

Our Godward journey.

```

14211

```

Sing, sing,

Before you enter into

The hustle and bustle

Of life. ```

14212

```

Attachment is blindness;

Blindness is forgetfulness

Of the Divinity within.

```

14213

```

I must rise

Far beyond

My hope-summits.

```

14214

```

I must run away

From

Despair-night-territories.

```

14215

```

Each soulful prayer

Is an antidote

To depression-attack.

```

14216

```

Crawl, if you have to crawl

To go forward,

But do not run backward.

```

14217

```

My heart has taken up the challenge

To teach spirituality

To my lethargy-body.

```

14218

```

I do not need a certificate

Of my selfless service.

I need only

God’s Compassion-Eye

To watch over me.

```

14219

```

O my stupid mind,

When are you going to start

Accepting God’s Way?

```

14220

```

A dark shadow of resentment

Is what

An unaspiring mind is.

```

14221

```

I shall enjoy

A non-stop journey

Across my longest

Mind-desert. ```

14222

```

What is pleasure,

If not the fulfilment

Of my dark desires?

```

14223

```

A self-sufficient mind

I was,

But what I need is

A self-created joy. ```

14224

```

May my heart-bird fly

With outstretched wings

In the firmament of delight.

```

14225

```

The outer life

A scorching heat-desert.

```

14226

```

The inner life

A blossoming heart-garden.

```

14227

```

May all my good thoughts

Take birth

In my Lord’s Compassion-Cradle.

```

14228

```

Eternity’s Book

Is the depth

Of my aspiration-heart.

```

14229

```

I must efface

From the tablet of my heart

My God-disobedience-feelings.

```

14230

```

Yesterday

I was a perfect slave

Of my desire-life.

```

14231

```

Today

God has made me a prince

Of my aspiration-heart.

```

14232

```

May every day

Countless aspiring hearts

Celebrate

The supreme Victory

Of our Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

14233

```

Alas, is there no way

For us to illumine

This world of jealousy?

```

14234

```

Every morning

God whispers into our heart-ear

To increase our God-hunger.

```

14235

```

The mind has the capacity

Only to dream

Old dreams.

```

14236

```

The heart has the capacity

To awaken, reveal and establish

New realities.

```

14237

```

My Lord is

His ever-beckoning

Compassion-Smile.

```

14238

```

Wherever the mind is,

It makes itself

Most important.

```

14239

```

If simplicity and sincerity

Are missing,

Then spirituality is a fruitless

God-hunger. ```

14240

```

Our heart-sorrows

Can be drowned

Only by God’s

Compassion-flooded Smile. ```

14241

```

Inspired seekers will definitely

Be able to receive

Divine and perfect Answers

From Above. ```

14242

```

Every morning I pray to God

To give me the capacity

To manifest

All my God-dreams. ```

14243

```

Is there any day

That God does not warn us

Against complacency?

```

14244

```

The human mind

Is always prone

To doubt.

```

14245

```

In everything that we do,

We must be resolute;

If not, we shall never succeed

In anything. ```

14246

```

The mind is apt

To ridicule the heart

At every moment.

```

14247

```

The heart is always ready

To shower compassion-affection

On the unaspiring,

Even God-denying,

Mind.

```

14248

```

I need a dynamic vital

Which will never be vulnerable

To dark despair.

```

14249

```

Let us be sincere

With our own selves:

We must no more squander

All our divine reserves. ```

14250

```

The God-doubting mind,

If not the God-denying mind,

Can easily thwart

Our sweeter than the sweetest

Dreams.

```

14251

```

A universal oneness shall make

God’s manifestation on earth

Complete.

```

14252

```

I must say farewell

To my old,

Very old mind-teacher.

```

14253

```

God does not want to humiliate us.

We humiliate ourselves

By moving away

From God’s Compassion-Light. ```

14254

```

We must strive for our perfection

With every ounce of our strength,

Inner and outer.

```

14255

```

God scolds us

Precisely because

His Love for us is boundless.

```

14256

```

God wants us to know Him

First-hand

And not just to know Him

By hearsay. ```

14257

```

Love, devotion and surrender

Are the three requisites

In our spiritual life.

```

14258

```

We all need burning faith

In our aspiration-heart

And our dedication-life.

```

14259

```

If we do not value God’s Compassion,

Then sooner or later

We shall be expelled from God’s

Compassion-flooded Presence. ```

14260

```

One disobedient act is enough

To be cast out

From God’s inner circle.

```

14261

```

Each individual has a special,

Very special mission

From the Absolute Lord Supreme.

```

14262

```

Alas, I do not know how to comfort

Those who need and deserve sympathy

From me

While mourning. ```

14263

```

If you do not have faith

In your own aspiration,

Then you are bound to be

A poor swimmer

In the spirituality-sea.

```

14264

```

If we do not aspire,

Then we shall remain strangers

In strange desire-countries.

```

14265

```

Each devotion-heart-door

Has a very special

Sweetness-fragrance.

```

14266

```

Our one-pointed God-attention

We lose

When we enjoy our desire-life.

```

14267

```

Alas, why do we allow

Ignorance to beckon us

While we are marching

Towards God? ```

14268

```

When we say we are unable,

It means we are not with God

And for God.

```

14269

```

Without eagerness,

Nothing significant

Can ever be accomplished.

```

14270

```

May my life be

A daily uphill

Transcendence-climb.

```

14271

```

My soul wants me

To continue

With Infinity’s silence-delight.

```

14272

```

If it is pure devotion,

Then it can dissolve everything

Into ecstasy.

```

14273

```

Now that we are sincere

In our spiritual life,

We are astonished at our previous

God-carelessness-life. ```

14274

```

Do not leave your heart’s

Aspiration-song

Half-sung.

```

14275

```

To have devotion for God

Is to love God

In an unprecedented way.

```

14276

```

The heart has the most perfect answer

To each and every question

In the mind-world.

```

14277

```

Alas, disobedience-blunders

We endlessly make

Before we please God

In God’s own Way. ```

14278

```

Nothing is as sweet

And as powerful

As God’s Encouragement-Smiles.

```

14279

```

Each heart

Knows how to sing well

Purity-songs.

```

14280

```

Man is man’s

Unconsciously tangled

Life-tree.

```

14281

```

God’s Compassion

Is the beauty of my inspiration

And

The fragrance of my aspiration. ```

14282

```

It is an impossible task

To absorb the shock

Of our continuous

God-disobedience-mind. ```

14283

```

What I need is only

A single mind-illumination-

Meditation-moment.

```

14284

```

We all must turn to spirituality

If we really want to destroy

Our untold miseries.

```

14285

```

Nothing is as illumining and fulfilling

In my life

As my God-ordained responsibility.

```

14286

```

My Beloved Supreme,

I simply cannot resist

The golden dust

Of Your Nectar-Feet. ```

14287

```

In the inner world

Every day we need a fresh

God-manifestation-victory.

```

14288

```

Alas, the human mind

Godless information-prone.

```

14289

```

The divine heart

Is always

Blissful illumination-prone.

```

14290

```

Doubt can at most

Eclipse faith

But can never extinguish it.

```

14291

```

My life-boat plies

Between the shores

Of God the Wonderful

And

God the Blissful.

```

14292

```

Sooner or later

It is absolutely necessary

For us to please God

In His own Way. ```

14293

```

There are very few things

Available on earth

That have the capacity

To please God. ```

14294

```

Life is still bearable

Because our hope

Is immeasurable.

```

14295

```

You need willingness desperately

To enter into

God’s Bliss-Reality-Existence.

```

14296

```

Criticism is

An inevitable

Self-destruction.

```

14297

```

May my heart’s gratitude-river flow

Here, there

And everywhere.

```

14298

```

God’s Secrets

Are open books

To my aspiration-heart.

```

14299

```

When I live inside my mind,

I pray to God to bless me

With surrender-light.

```

14300

```

I am perfect twice:

Once when I live inside

My gratitude-heart

And once when I live inside

My surrender-life.

```

14301

```

Realisation comes not

From book information

But from God-invocation.

```

14302

```

Transformation comes not

From mind-smiles

But from heart-tears.

```

14303

```

We cannot run away

From God;

His Compassion-Eye

Can easily capture us. ```

14304

```

In time we shall collect

The bumper crop

Of our heart-tears.

```

14305

```

My Lord, I have not seen You,

I have not spoken to You,

But I have felt You.

I do hope that I shall always be able

To feel You.

```

14306

```

No longer remain a slave

To your desire-life.

Be a lover

Of your aspiration-heart. ```

14307

```

The tiniest drop

And the mightiest ocean

Equally need Your Presence,

My Lord Supreme. ```

14308

```

O world,

Come and feast

Inside

My God-oneness-heart. ```

14309

```

I shall not allow evil

To prevail

In any aspect

Of my aspiration-life. ```

14310

```

O forces of goodness,

Where are you?

I need your friendship immediately!

Together we must fight

Against ignorance-night.

```

14311

```

My Lord,

You cannot go away any more.

Even if You go,

My heart shall follow You

Wherever You go.

```

14312

```

I am so fortunate.

The divine in me

Sees something useful in me,

Although the world sees

Nothing special.

```

14313

```

My Lord,

The Joy in Your Heart

Is my only nourishing fruit.

```

14314

```

My Lord,

If my lower self and I

Do not die for You,

Then how can You

Be ever with us?

```

14315

```

I play my role

By invoking You,

My Lord.

You play Your Role

By calling me to come.

```

14316

```

You are not allowing me

To go with You, my Lord.

But do allow me

To follow You closely. ```

14317

```

To see Him

Is to give Him

What you have

Unconditionally. ```

14318

```

My Lord, do alter my fate!

Do give me the right

To sit at Your Feet

And feel Your Presence

In the very depth of my heart.

```

14319

```

The day I do not pray

And meditate,

I am bound to suffer

Insurmountable agony. ```

14320

```

My Lord, finally

I have accepted You,

And now I am embracing

Your Feet. ```

14321

```

O my mind,

I know you are either going

To die

Or become a perfect instrument

Of God.

```

14322

```

If you do not give up

Your old self,

Perfection and satisfaction

Will not beckon you. ```

14323

```

The divine goal is won

Not by the weak,

Not by the strong,

But by the pure. ```

14324

```

Ask, ask!

God will definitely tell you

What your task is.

```

14325

```

Nothing binds me

As ruthlessly

As my own doubting mind.

```

14326

```

God is going to invent

Our future promises

If we pray soulfully to Him.

```

14327

```

O my mind, start, start!

There is no time to delay

Your divine journey.

```

14328

```

O my heart,

Never miss the aspiration-plane,

Never!

```

14329

```

O my life,

Never miss the dedication-train,

Never!

```

14330

```

Relaxation is needed

To remove

Our vital depression.

```

14331

```

God is not asking you to return

The things you have taken

From Him.

He is asking you

Just to multiply them.

```

14332

```

Meditate, meditate!

Faith will definitely be able

To enter into your world.

```

14333

```

An eagerness-heart

Can easily give us

A willingness-mind.

```

14334

```

May my heart be blessed

Moment by moment

With God-surrender.

```

14335

```

Each prayer

Climbs our soul’s

Inner heights.

```

14336

```

Keep your body-temple

Always

In perfect condition.

```

14337

```

May my mind’s God-thirst

And my heart’s God-hunger

Live only for the fulfilment

Of God’s Will. ```

14338

```

Sincerely and intensely

We must devote ourselves

To pleasing God

At every moment of our lives. ```

14339

```

We make complaints about

The intensity of our problems,

But do we ever care to increase

The intensity

Of our God-action-eagerness?

```

14340

```

To find one’s way Home,

One needs the aspiration-heart

Of a giant.

```

14341

```

Each human mind

A God-search-promise.

```

14342

```

Each human life

A God-service-promise.

```

14343

```

Each human heart

A God-satisfaction-promise.

```

14344

```

An aspiring life

Must sleeplessly cry

For liberation

From ignorance-night. ```

14345

```

An aspiration-heart

Sooner or later

Must surprisingly shine.

```

14346

```

My Lord’s Lotus-Feet

Every day bless me

With a new awakening

And a new life. ```

14347

```

Real spirituality

Is not

Life’s indifference-silence.

```

14348

```

A seeker’s aspiration-heart

Promises

A world-peace-home.

```

14349

```

May my Lord’s Compassion

Reign over

My aspiration-life.

```

14350

```

A life of devotion

Has to remain always

Fresh, pure, illumining

And fulfilling. ```

14351

```

God has to wait indefinitely

To receive

Humanity’s gratitude-tears.

```

14352

```

I can be really happy

Only if I can

Most self-givingly follow

My Lord’s Lotus-Feet. ```

14353

```

There is no true joy

For

A disobedience-rebel.

```

14354

```

When I lose God’s Newness,

Sweetness and Fulness-Presence,

I lose all my aspiration-heart-tears

And surrender-life-smiles. ```

14355

```

Each human being has to be reminded

Of his solemn promise to God,

And that promise is to cultivate

A world-silence-peace-garden. ```

14356

```

The mind takes the wrong start,

The mind runs on the wrong track

And, finally,

The mind arrives at the wrong goal. ```

14357

```

When God does something for you

Most soulfully and fruitfully,

Prepare yourself

To have the utmost receptivity

And to be the most sincere seeker.

```

14358

```

Everything on earth is noisy,

And this noise will produce

Everything useless.

```

14359

```

A true aspiration-heart

Can never, never be disloyal

To the Master.

```

14360

```

While God approaches a seeker,

He always carries with Him

A Forgiveness-Bell.

```

14361

```

Alas, my aspiration-heart

Is completely ruined

By my negativity-mind-storm.

```

14362

```

May my gratitude-heart

Walk along with me

From night to light.

```

14363

```

The happiest pride I get

Only when I fly on the wings

Of my gratitude-surrender.

```

14364

```

The mind is eager to know

What God’s absolute Will is —

And there its curiosity

Begins and ends. ```

14365

```

Each soul is eager

To fly on the wings

Of life-transformation-bird.

```

14366

```

There can be

No proper substitute

For a crying aspiration-heart.

```

14367

```

May my life-tree

Be fully fruitful

With gratitude-surrender-smiles.

```

14368

```

If our aspiration-eagerness

Fades,

Then our God-satisfaction-smile

Shall remain

Farther than our farthest

Imagination. ```

14369

```

God has His own Way to act

In and through us

If He really wants

Our progress-life

For His manifestation.

```

14370

```

The mind’s desire-steps

Are more dangerous

Than anything we know

Or we can think of. ```

14371

```

God has countless Names,

But I love most

Only two Names of His:

Compassion-Beauty

And

Forgiveness-Fragrance. ```

14372

```

Darkness does not remain

Darkness any more

When you cultivate

God-receptivity. ```

14373

```

Alas,

An unaspiring human being

Is nothing short of

An error-born mind. ```

14374

```

An aspiration-heart

Is, indeed,

God’s celestial Pride.

```

14375

```

True, purity-angels live

In Heaven,

But quite often they frequent

The earth. ```

14376

```

Man treasures

God’s

Smiling Eye.

```

14377

```

God treasures

Man’s

Crying heart.

```

14378

```

In the aspiration-cry

There can be no

Desire-storm.

```

14379

```

My Master’s footprints

Are for my mind’s inspiration

And for my heart’s aspiration

To follow. ```

14380

```

Nothing can be more meaningful

In my life

Than to be devotion-petals

For my Lord’s Feet. ```

14381

```

May my aspiration-cries

Every day

Reach my Lord’s

Compassion-Ears. ```

14382

```

My Lord’s Affection

Every day

Enlivens my heart

And

Enlightens my life.

```

14383

```

Real sympathy-blossoms

Can be found only

In aspiring hearts.

```

14384

```

Insecurity binds us.

Jealousy blinds us.

Oneness sees us.

Fulness feeds us. ```

14385

```

The Voice of Infinity

Has a special place to live,

And that place is inside

Man’s self-giving life. ```

14386

```

Our devotion-compass

At every moment

Points us

To our Lord Beloved Supreme. ```

14387

```

Man’s disobedience-fate

Is never allowed to arrive

At God’s Golden Gate.

```

14388

```

Ambition-tree is short-lived.

Sooner than later

It falls down.

```

14389

```

In the spiritual life,

Cheerful heart-smiles

Run extremely fast.

```

14390

```

May peace-messages ring

Throughout the length and breadth

Of the world.

```

14391

```

I am searching

For God’s

Lotus-Feet.

```

14392

```

God is searching

For my

Blossoming heart.

```

14393

```

Prayer is absolutely needed

To have a very solid

God-obedience-foundation.

```

14394

```

Newness and fulness

Do not have to be invented;

They can be discovered

In our inner life

Everywhere.

```

14395

```

Devotion can grow,

Devotion can flow,

Devotion can soar,

Devotion can dive,

Devotion can do anything

To please God

In His own Way.

```

14396

```

Our life’s humility-branch

Can be extremely beautiful,

Charming and, at the same time,

Self-giving. ```

14397

```

Is there anybody

Who does not squander

God’s Compassion-Force?

```

14398

```

The eagerness of the heart

Is the quickness

In the spiritual life.

```

14399

```

May my life-boat ply

Between

My obedience-life-shore

And

My gratitude-heart-shore.

```

14400

```

I need God’s Justice

And not God’s Compassion

To expedite the progress

Of my spiritual life. ```

14401

```

Hesitation is indeed

A slow poison

In the spiritual life.

```

14402

```

Enlightenment comes into existence

From the beauty of

Aspiration-cries

And the fragrance of

Dedication-smiles.

```

14403

```

May my surrender-life span the gulf

Between

The human in me of the present

And

The divine in me of the future.

```

14404

```

Each soul

Compassionately and self-givingly

Runs through human life.

```

14405

```

Heaven is found

Immediately

In the home of silence.

```

14406

```

No matter how long

The unwilling mind revolts,

Eventually it has to surrender

To the light of the heart. ```

14407

```

Even God was astonished

When I deliberately refused

To accompany Him.

```

14408

```

The mind has to lament endlessly

Because it constantly refuses

To accept

The light of the heart. ```

14409

```

If you have made

Your surrender to God’s Will

Complete,

Then you will not be at all alarmed

When Death pounds

On your life-door. ```

14410

```

Do you want to be perfect?

Then keep your mind-mouth shut

And keep your heart-ear open.

```

14411

```

God’s complete Satisfaction

Is a joy too rich

For the human heart to endure.

```

14412

```

Every day

I prayerfully wait for

An inspiration-dawn.

```

14413

```

As the day and night

Every day fight

To declare their supremacy,

Even so I shall fight with ignorance

To declare my supremacy.

```

14414

```

I am safe

Only when I find myself

Within my God-obedience-orbit.

```

14415

```

A seeker of unconditional surrender

Is blessed with the keys

To God’s highest Perfection-Palace.

```

14416

```

My Lord,

Do give me the capacity

To empty out

All my doubt-mind-rooms. ```

14417

```

He who plays the game

Of self-giving

Is indeed a God-champion.

```

14418

```

Even if it is a slow process

To learn the lesson of boundless love,

We must study

And learn the subject well. ```

14419

```

Every morning I pray to God

To bless me with a rainbow

Of enthusiasm-delight.

```

14420

```

To my greatest joy,

My Lord Himself

Has given me the key

To my heart-temple-door. ```

14421

```

The real name

For God-disobedience

Is self-destruction.

```

14422

```

May my life be added

To the ever-illumining list

Of sincere God-lovers.

```

14423

```

I prayerfully love

The chiming

Of my heart-awakening-bell.

```

14424

```

The desire-life

Is always wanting in

God-satisfaction.

```

14425

```

If you really love your Master-Lord,

Then remain clinging permanently,

With your heart and soul,

To his heart. ```

14426

```

The hope-sun of the heart

Can definitely illumine

The life-sky.

```

14427

```

Every evening I pray to God

To bless me

With a God-Satisfaction-dream.

```

14428

```

Those who believe in the supreme fact

That they are under God’s

Absolute Control

Will receive special Blessing-Light

From the Lord Supreme.

```

14429

```

My God-obedience

Is nothing short of my endless gain,

Inner and outer.

```

14430

```

God is apt to deny Himself

To God-oblivion-eyes

And God-oblivion-hearts.

```

14431

```

Alas, I do not know

When I shall be in a position

To play on my surrender-flute

To please my Lord Supreme. ```

14432

```

I need only one single

Obedience-heart-breath

To please my Lord

In His own Way. ```

14433

```

We must bravely cross over

The mind’s

High unwillingness-hurdle.

```

14434

```

Alas, I do not know

If ever my eyes and my heart

Shall follow God

Prayerfully and soulfully. ```

14435

```

I shall never desire

A mind that is enamoured

Of earthly splendours.

```

14436

```

I must stop

The march

Of my ill-fated life.

```

14437

```

Insecurity

Can never be recruited

To join

God’s divine Army. ```

14438

```

The doubting eyes

Do not believe

Even in the most striking confirmations.

```

14439

```

If we live in the mind-jungle,

We shall undoubtedly

Be forced to bathe

In unhappiness-tears. ```

14440

```

Every day

I pray and meditate

Early in the morning

To breathe in the beauty and fragrance

Of a newness-dawn.

```

14441

```

Only my heart has been blessed

By my Lord Supreme

With a divine eye to see Him

Twenty-four hours a day. ```

14442

```

The mind-messenger

Is not allowed to bring

Any news

Either to God or from God. ```

14443

```

Only purity-eyes

Have the shining capacity

To feed

The seeker’s heart. ```

14444

```

May I have

Ceaseless devotion-tears

Every day

For my Master. ```

14445

```

May my aspiration be ceaseless

To remove me forcibly

From the hands of ignorance-night.

```

14446

```

Alas,

My mind deliberately

Wants to remain a stranger

To God-Compassion and God-Concern. ```

14447

```

When I am in my soulfulness,

My Lord becomes

His immediate Closeness.

```

14448

```

Every day

I dauntlessly keep

My mind-door shut

To disobedience-thoughts. ```

14449

```

Each time I enjoy my self-doubt,

I am forced to be a thousand miles away

From my Lord’s Heart.

```

14450

```

May my life’s real name

Sleepless God-service.

```

14451

```

May my heart’s real name

Breathless God-love.

```

14452

```

May my mind’s real name

Constant God-search.

```

14453

```

May my heart be an open book,

Not only to God

But also

To each and every human being. ```

14454

```

Alas,

I never thought that my free will

Would so ruthlessly fool me.

```

14455

```

God’s Compassion-Light

Every day takes me

On a new world-adventure.

```

14456

```

God’s Compassion-Light

Every day encourages my heart

To discover something inspiring,

Illumining and fulfilling. ```

14457

```

On the verge of God-realisation,

Each aspiring soul

Sees, feels and grows into

God’s infinite Delight. ```

14458

```

God needs

My silence-heart

And not

My sound-mind. ```

14459

```

I become

God’s most precious jewel

When I see everyone

As an angel. ```

14460

```

Like my soul,

I shall never hesitate

In welcoming all.

```

14461

```

The unaspiring mind

Not even remotely feels

God’s Compassion-Bliss.

```

14462

```

My heart and I every day

Sail and sail

Towards our Lord’s

Golden Shore. ```

14463

```

Finally my Lord Supreme

Has sent

My ever-unwillingness-mind

An ultimatum. ```

14464

```

I am extremely proud

Of myself,

For my Lord Supreme

Has kidnapped my heart. ```

14465

```

If you want to see

God’s smiling Eye,

Then show God first

Your devotion-flooded heart. ```

14466

```

God tells me that

Only a seeker

Of unconditional surrender

Can say the right thing

About God

And do the right thing

For God.

```

14467

```

I offer my Lord Supreme

The tears of my heart.

He immediately blows

My life’s victory-conch. ```

14468

```

The beauty of soulfulness

My heart

Always has.

```

14469

```

The fragrance of eagerness

My heart

Desperately needs.

```

14470

```

If you desperately need bliss,

You can definitely pray for it,

But God’s Will may be

Totally different. ```

14471

```

May my heart’s eagerness

Patience-exempt.

```

14472

```

My eagerness,

Just wait quietly.

God is bringing you

Some very special gifts

To expedite your journey.

Just wait for His blessingful

And blissful Arrival.

```

14473

```

When my heart is all devotion,

My Lord Supreme proudly pilots

My life-boat.

```

14474

```

God the birthless and deathless

Compassion

Can never be humanity’s invention.

He can only be humanity’s

Aspiration-pinnacle.

```

14475

```

May my gratitude-heart-flower

Always remain fresh

And never wither.

```

14476

```

I simply do not know

How the mind

Can proudly enjoy

Its own negativity-frown. ```

14477

```

The inner insecurity

Can become eventually

A most destructive reality.

```

14478

```

My aspiration-heart and I

Are sleeplessly searching

For a peace-ocean.

Alas, so far

It is nowhere to be found.

```

14479

```

Today’s disobedience

Tomorrow’s unavoidable

Graveyard. ```

14480

```

How can anybody be happy

Without having

A progress-dream-life?

```

14481

```

The unaspiring human mind

Self-aggrandisement.

```

14482

```

The aspiring divine heart

Progress-enlightenment.

```

14483

```

The mind

Always enjoys

Self-autocracy.

```

14484

```

The heart

Always enjoys

God-oneness-intimacy.

```

14485

```

My mind and I,

Today,

Together must stop

Our Lord’s dissatisfaction-frown. ```

14486

```

Ingratitude-mind

I was.

Apology-tears

I now am. ```

14487

```

God wants everyone to study

And win

The God-realisation-title.

```

14488

```

The doubting mind

Confusion-dictionary.

```

14489

```

The aspiring heart

Illumination-gospel.

```

14490

```

When disobedience-misfortune

Befalls our life,

We are undoubtedly taking ourselves

To our eternal doom. ```

14491

```

What is jealousy,

If not a most powerfully

Pointed sword?

```

14492

```

May my devotion-bird

Nest within

My God-invoking heart.

```

14493

```

The frowns of age

Can never affect the beauty

Of a childlike heart.

```

14494

```

The experience-bud

Is beautiful,

But the realisation-rose

Is perfect. ```

14495

```

All-illumining answers

Are available

In our all-serving life.

```

14496

```

The eye that sees

The inner flame

Is invited by God Himself

To participate

In His Cosmic Game.

```

14497

```

God always remains

At home.

It is we who enjoy

Going out. ```

14498

```

I tell my Lord Supreme,

“May Your Compassion

Be farther than the farthest

From my

Understanding-craving mind.”

```

14499

```

I have thousands of prayers;

God has only one.

His Prayer is for

My mind-surrender

To His Will.

```

14500

```

O my mind,

Let us follow together

Our heart,

Which is striding

Cheerfully and bravely

Into the flames of the Unknown. ```

14501

```

God has given us

The capacity,

But we have to develop

The courage

To please Him in His own Way.

```

14502

```

We must climb up

To bliss-flooded

Pinnacle-heights.

```

14503

```

O my mind,

How long can you wallow

In the valley

Of useless unwillingness? ```

14504

```

Each seeker needs

An inner pilgrimage

To reach

God’s ever-transcending Will. ```

14505

```

Each seeker

Sleeplessly needs

God-longing enthusiasm.

```

14506

```

Each and every time

I fall,

My Lord’s Smile-flooded Eye

Lifts me up. ```

14507

```

The desire-life

Of millennia

We must cast off.

```

14508

```

We must impart

God-surrendering will

To one another.

```

14509

```

The clouds

Of the unwillingness-mind

Have to be dispelled —

The sooner the better! ```

14510

```

My Lord wants me

To pray and meditate

At each heart-bloom

Of my present life. ```

14511

```

Doubts die eventually

Under their own

Self-destructive weight.

```

14512

```

God’s Nectar-flooded Will

Each seeker is destined

To imbibe.

```

14513

```

May God’s Will attract

The entire existence

Of my earth-life.

```

14514

```

God’s Will we must fulfil,

Not only while we are

Wide awake,

But also while we are

In our soundest sleep.

```

14515

```

Fear is too stupid

To know

What courage is.

```

14516

```

Now that I have drafted myself

Into God’s Peace Army,

My joy knows no bounds.

```

14517

```

The surrender-fragrance

Of the heart

Is unimaginably sweet.

```

14518

```

Poor God!

In vain He seeks

Our gratitude-oasis.

```

14519

```

An urgent telephone call

From my Lord Supreme

Has frightened my mind,

And now my mind

Is on the right track.

```

14520

```

Doubt cannot read

Even one single sign

In the inner world.

```

14521

```

When God is proud of a seeker,

He invites the seeker to pose

For a photograph

With Him. ```

14522

```

May my very existence

Forever be rooted

In my Lord’s absolute Will.

```

14523

```

When we implore God

To forgive us,

He not only forgives us

But also encourages us

To explore

Our inner reality. ```

14524

```

May my mind’s

Transformation-cry

Be absolutely genuine.

```

14525

```

May my heart’s

Hope-bird-wings

Always fly in the sky

Of God-fulfilment-promise. ```

14526

```

O my mind,

There shall come a time

When you will realise

That God’s adamantine Will

Is inescapable.

```

14527

```

No human being

Can proudly declare

That he has not misused

God’s Tolerance-Light

And

Compassion-Delight. ```

14528

```

My Lord, when will I have

The capacity to love You

And feel You

As my All? ```

14529

```

Only God-obedience

Has the capacity

To surmount

The insurmountable

Obstacles.

```

14530

```

God’s Will-fulfilment

Is my sole wish

From start to finish.

```

14531

```

God is more than willing

To take

All my troubled thoughts.

But alas, I am not ready

To give them to Him.

```

14532

```

The company of God’s Will

Is at once

Universally illumining

And

Transcendentally fulfilling.

```

14533

```

My Lord Supreme,

Do bless me

With a gratitude-heart-telescope.

```

14534

```

The mind’s disobedience-ship

Is doomed to sink

Sooner or later.

```

14535

```

God’s Tolerance-Heart

Has tears

From His Eye.

```

14536

```

Everything interests

My Lord Supreme,

Save and except

My ego-life. ```

14537

```

God has decided

To force my mind’s

Unwillingness

To surrender to His Will. ```

14538

```

Only when I am happy

Am I prepared to do anything

To please God.

If not, I just please myself

In my own way.

```

14539

```

May my heart’s

God-surrender-bird

Fly far beyond

The most distant horizon. ```

14540

```

May I be prayerfully

And soulfully devoted

To the very dust

Of my Lord’s

Compassion-Forgiveness-Feet.

```

14541

```

My Lord’s Rainbow-Songs

Are extremely illumining

And fulfilling.

```

14542

```

I am

My heart’s

Self-offering.

```

14543

```

God is

His Heart’s

Fountain-Smile.

```

14544

```

Eagerness can be found

Only in the heart

Of a newness-day.

```

14545

```

The aspiring heart

Always amplifies

God-Nectar-Messages

For the unmindful mind. ```

14546

```

I am so proud of my heart,

For it knows how to multiply

Its God-climbing cries.

```

14547

```

What is discipline,

If not

The perfection-freedom-smile

Of a human life? ```

14548

```

Today’s

Obedience-light

Assumes a new name

Tomorrow:

Progress-delight.

```

14549

```

Real surrender

Cannot swerve

From the God-pleasing path.

```

14550

```

I am my heart’s

Determination-promise:

I must dispel the thickest

Disobedience-cloud

Of my mind.

```

14551

```

If life has problems,

Even so,

Light has solutions.

```

14552

```

May my mind’s God-search

Be constant

And absolutely sincere.

```

14553

```

The highest mountain

Is Mount Everest.

The lowest mountain

Is man’s ingratitude. ```

14554

```

America’s Liberty Bell

Cracked in 1835,

But humanity’s aspiration-bell

Will never break. ```

14555

```

You must hold your gossip-tongue

If you want to walk along

The road of self-perfection.

```

14556

```

God’s Justice-Eye

Is not explainable.

God’s Compassion-Heart

Is not only explainable

But also attainable.

```

14557

```

Who can console

Your stricken heart

If not your own

All-illumining soul? ```

14558

```

If your heart has nothing,

Then your life has nothing

To lose.

```

14559

```

The newness of life

Is necessary.

The fulness of the heart

Is indispensable. ```

14560

```

Do not forget that the world

Will suspect you more

If you do not love.

```

14561

```

Silence is the strength

Of those who love God

For God’s own sake.

```

14562

```

Follow the aspiration-road

Cheerfully

Wherever it goes.

```

14563

```

How can your mind

Give you any guarantee,

When the mind itself

Is so imperfect? ```

14564

```

Yesterday I prayed

To my Lord Supreme

To protect me from my foes.

```

14565

```

Today I am praying

To my Lord Supreme

To protect me from myself.

```

14566

```

Your aspiration-heart

Will bring all your dead dreams

To life.

```

14567

```

God forgives.

Therefore, our ingratitude-stain

Does not forever last.

```

14568

```

He has his outer happy face,

But

He is his inner sad heart.

```

14569

```

What each life-train

Needs

Is an enthusiasm-engine.

```

14570

```

The first and the last

Message of life:

Expect

And you will never get. ```

14571

```

Convert

Your suspicion-mind

Into

Your aspiration-heart. ```

14572

```

Self-expression

Finds the mind.

God-revelation

Liberates the heart. ```

14573

```

Every day

An aspiration-heart experiments

In the science

Of fruitful self-perfection. ```

14574

```

Your life cannot fly

Because your mind-baggage

Is extremely heavy.

```

14575

```

Consciously and sleeplessly

Avoid

Your mind’s disobedience-crisis.

```

14576

```

You are absent-minded.

I can and shall forgive you.

You are absent-hearted.

How can I

And why should I forgive you?

```

14577

```

What we need

A world united in prayer.

```

14578

```

What I want to do

Is to forgive everyone,

Including myself.

```

14579

```

For God-realisation

There is no alternative

To aspiration.

```

14580

```

Not the sound-tree

But the silence-tree

Grows the seeker’s

Heart-satisfaction-fruits. ```

14581

```

My Inner Pilot

Is very selective.

He reads only

My heart-library books. ```

14582

```

My Pilot Supreme tells me

That my heart-lotus

Can easily become withered.

```

14583

```

Doubt-injection

Weakened your mind

First,

And now fear-injection

Is weakening your heart.

```

14584

```

God’s Eye administrates

So that His Heart

Can liberate us.

```

14585

```

God’s last Message:

Step out of the mind’s

Fleeting time

And enter into the heart’s

Eternity.

```

14586

```

Are you not happy that at last

Your mind-store

Has totally failed?

```

14587

```

Arise and shine!

God is coming back again

To see you.

```

14588

```

What can you do

With your eyes open

If you keep your heart

Closed? ```

14589

```

Each aspiration-heart

And

Each dedication-life

Knows how to march bravely

To the beats of God’s

Victory-Drum. ```

14590

```

Desires remain desires

Until prayers come in

To replace them.

```

14591

```

Your mind is all

Doubt-confusion.

God wants you to be

A hero-fighter. ```

14592

```

One thing God never stops

Doing:

He never stops listening

Unconditionally. ```

14593

```

God, God’s Compassion

And God’s Forgiveness

Never play vanishing games.

```

14594

```

The divine extravagance

Is when the doubting mind

Is loved by God.

```

14595

```

Your unbelief-mind

Will prove to be

An unbelievable failure.

```

14596

```

Each sunlit oneness-smile

Of a seeker

Is God’s stupendous Victory.

```

14597

```

God’s outer open indifference

Gives birth to

His inner secret Love.

```

14598

```

Not only the person

Who answers,

But also those who ask

God-hungry questions

Are awakened and wise.

```

14599

```

Every day God can and God does

Easily create new souls

Because He sees

That there is plenty of room

For new plants

In His universal Heart-Garden. ```

14600

```

The soul has taken up the challenge

To perfect all the members

Of the family.

Alas, even the heart is not trying

To be of any help.

And to get help from the mind

Is an impossible task.

```

14601

```

Each aspiring heart

Is a solid member

Of God’s

Divinity-manifestation-team. ```

14602

```

My Lord, my Lord,

Please, please do not allow me

To enter into

My mind’s forest-night

Any more.

```

14603

```

No matter how unaspiring

My mind is,

My Lord Supreme still keeps my mind

Under His

Compassion-Forgiveness-Care.

```

14604

```

Alas, alas,

Why do I always allow

At least once a day

My restless vital

To open my mind’s

Confusion-door? ```

14605

```

In the morning

I soulfully send

My love-prayers

Around the world. ```

14606

```

In the evening

I unconditionally send

My peace-meditations

Around the world. ```

14607

```

My Lord Supreme tells me

That if I sincerely want

To make the fastest progress

In my spiritual life,

Then I must every day

Apply my ancient disciplines

To my modern life.

```

14608

```

When I do not meditate

On God,

I am nothing but my own

Insecurity-helplessness-collapse. ```

14609

```

What I need is

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye,

And not the shoulder

Of self-reliance. ```

14610

```

Every day my outer life

Needs the energy of a galloping

Enthusiasm-intensity-horse.

```

14611

```

O temptation-tormenter,

This time my soul’s confidence-light

In my life

Shall be the victor over you. ```

14612

```

To God I offer

My heart’s dream-seed.

To me God grants

His Eye’s Reality-Plant. ```

14613

```

In my inner life

There is only one safe place,

And that place is

My heart’s gratitude-sanctuary. ```

14614

```

His life is in between

His mind’s indecision

And his hands’ inaction.

Therefore, how can his heart

Ever be happy?

```

14615

```

Your excessive emphasis

On the mind

Is definitely the cause

Of your heart-life’s paralysis. ```

14616

```

Faith within,

Confidence without.

Oneness within,

Perfection without. ```

14617

```

First oneness-freedom

Has to be believable.

Then only can it unmistakably

Be attained. ```

14618

```

God and I need each other

Most intimately.

God knows how unthinkably

Weak I am,

And I know how unimaginably

Forgiving He is. ```

14619

```

Each moment

Is a Heaven-sent opportunity

For me to become

A perfect instrument

Of God’s Compassion-Eye.

```

14620

```

Uncomely thoughts cannot rob you

Of your deep meditation

If you cry soulfully

For God’s Protection-Feet. ```

14621

```

How can you succeed and proceed

If your hunger is only

For the information

And not for the illumination

Of the inner world?

```

14622

```

Because of your mind’s

Black ingratitude,

Your heart can never properly enjoy

Your God-manifesting inner certitude. ```

14623

```

If you constantly pour your affection

On the past,

You will get nothing

But indifference

From both the present

And the future. ```

14624

```

There is no man-made obstacle

That cannot be surmounted

By God-given faith.

```

14625

```

His aspiration-life

Is in between

His mind’s resentment-night

And

His soul’s detachment-light.

```

14626

```

Each man can easily count

Everything else save and except

His mind’s insecurity-ants.

```

14627

```

Even God-souls

Are born to suffer,

But they are never allowed

To retire. ```

14628

```

There can be no

Abiding satisfaction

If there is no

Unconditional forgiveness. ```

14629

```

My previous name

Was endless self-doubt.

My present name

Is sleepless God-faith. ```

14630

```

I am becoming dearest

To God’s Heart

Because my insecurity

Is fast fading from my life. ```

14631

```

Today my heart

Is flooded with joy

Because I have received

A doubt-proof mind

From my Beloved Lord Supreme.

```

14632

```

Since God has chosen me

To be a supremely choice instrument

Of His,

How can I allow myself

To be bound and caught

By earthly expectation-chains? ```

14633

```

God is telling me

That He is extremely proud

Of my heart

Because it has always remained

Untouched by attachment-hands.

```

14634

```

God is asking me,

Like Him,

To cherish only one thing:

My heart’s aspiration-cry. ```

14635

```

I must taste

God-surrender-sweetness first,

And then only God will grant me

His Oneness-Satisfaction-Smile. ```

14636

```

A global man is he

Who sleeplessly cries

To God the Creator

For the oneness-joy

Of God the creation.

```

14637

```

A global man is he

Whose heart is Eternity’s

Aspiration-mountain

And whose life is Immortality’s

Dedication-fountain.

```

14638

```

A global man is he

Whose heart sleeplessly breaks

For the incurably broken hearts.

```

14639

```

A global man is he

Whose heart is the beauty

Of a God-guided life

And whose mind is the responsibility

Of a man-united world.

```

14640

```

A global man knows no past

And no future.

He knows only the Eternal Now

To illumine the confusion-mind

And feed the aspiration-heart

Of the world-family. ```

14641

```

A global man is he

Whose aspiration-heart

And dedication-life

Have grown into world-peace

And world-joy

For all Eternity. ```

14642

```

A global man is he

Who tells his fellow citizens

Of the world

That since they are peace-dreamers

In the inner world,

They can easily become joy-distributors

In the outer world.

```

14643

```

The code of a global man’s life is:

Educate the mind compassionately;

Liberate the heart soulfully.

```

14644

```

Simplify your mind.

Intensify your heart.

Purify your life.

Glorify your oneness-world-family.

Lo, you are indeed a global man!

```

14645

```

I do not take you as a global man

Just because you have discovered

A new planet or a new world.

I do take you as a global man

Precisely because

You have discovered yourself

And your oneness-world-family.

```

14646

```

They all laughed and laughed

When I said I was going to realise God

At one single sitting.

Now they completely believe me,

But they hate themselves vehemently.

```

14647

```

They all laughed and laughed

When I said I was going to manifest

My Lord Supreme fully

In one single day.

Now they do not use their ears

And eyes any more,

For they have proved to be

Utterly useless. ```

14648

```

In the inner world this morning

My Lord Supreme

Held a beauty contest.

Do you know who the winners were?

The dreamer in me stood first.

The lover in me stood second.

The believer in me stood third.

```

14649

```

God and I

Had a difference of opinion.

I told God that I am

A useless instrument of His.

God immediately said,

“How can it be?

Do you not see

That you are already another God?” ```

14650

```

God not only loves to watch

The perfection-games

Of the aspiration-athletes,

But also loves to give away

Illumination-trophies

As soon as the satisfaction-competition

Is over.

```

14651

```

Challenge age —

Challenge, challenge!

How?

Through self-transcendence

In every field.

```

14652

```

God hopes that we will finish

The divine race,

And not be finished

Along the way. ```

14653

```

If we do good deeds,

Then God makes us feel

That we are His own,

Very own. ```

14654

```

Do not allow your mind

To take your heart

Out of the soul’s faith-garden

Into the mind’s doubt-forest. ```

14655

```

Never forget

The most important day

In your life:

The day you started

Your spiritual journey.

```

14656

```

Always remember

The preparation and sacrifice you made

When you entered into

The spiritual life

To truly value your inner life.

```

14657

```

If you think of the day

You entered into the spiritual life

As your birthday,

You will get back your ancient sincerity,

Intensity and depth.

```

14658

```

If you remember

How much eagerness you felt

When you joined the path,

You can get back your aspiration-joy. ```

14659

```

Once you see the beauty

Of your devotion

And feel the fragrance

Of your devotion,

You will become

A totally new person. ```

14660

```

Not only your soul

But also your heart will agree

With God

When He tells you that you had

A very powerful, significant meditation.

```

14661

```

God is always very proud

Of your mind

Whenever your mind

Agrees with Him. ```

14662

```

God knows that one day

Your mind will definitely

Agree with Him.

```

14663

```

Demolish, demolish,

Demolish the mind-building

Every day.

```

14664

```

Build, build,

Build the heart-temple

And

The heart-shrine

Every day.

```

14665

```

Inside your mind

Forget the most miserable days

Of your outer life.

```

14666

```

Inside your heart

Meditate on the happiest days

Of your inner life.

```

14667

```

Each happy day

I take wholeheartedly

As the happiest day in my life

Until I am blessed

With another happy day.

```

14668

```

When he was a seeker,

He had many extraordinary

Happiness-days.

```

14669

```

Now that he has become

A self-styled Master,

His happiness-days

Are buried in oblivion. ```

14670

```

Every day God is teaching me

One virtue:

Patience,

And I am exercising my patience

Every day.

```

14671

```

You will definitely be able to increase

Your closeness

To your Beloved Supreme

Just by reading devotion-book

Every day.

```

14672

```

If God has created something,

Then He also has the right

To change His creation

For the better. ```

14673

```

Because I truly care for perfection,

I value my inner feelings

That change and perfect me.

```

14674

```

My morning prayers

Give so much joy

To my soul.

```

14675

```

My morning meditations

Give so much joy

To my Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

14676

```

I cannot appreciate the mind

That justifies seeing the light

In its own way.

```

14677

```

Alas, God’s Concern

Is being rejected

By our unwillingness

Every single day. ```

14678

```

The workings of the mind

Tell us,

“If you listen to God tomorrow

Instead of today,

It does not matter.

Nothing will happen.” ```

14679

```

The oneness of the heart

Tells us,

“Let us listen to God today,

Since He has taken the trouble

To blessingfully offer us

His Compassion-Concern.” ```

14680

```

Earthly knowledge

Is on one level.

But God-obedience

Is on an infinitely higher level. ```

14681

```

For earthly knowledge

We use our mind.

For Heavenly wisdom

We use our heart. ```

14682

```

The third-class disciple says,

“I tried,

But I could not succeed.”

```

14683

```

The first-class disciple says,

“I failed,

But I will try again and again.

I am sure I will succeed.” ```

14684

```

The third-class disciple says,

“My Master has asked me

To do something,

But it cannot be done.” ```

14685

```

The first-class disciple says,

“If my Master has asked for something,

I will prove it is already done.”

```

14686

```

When God offers His divine Decree,

Humanity’s suggestions

Are nothing but stupidity-poison.

```

14687

```

If there is implicit faith,

The absolutely impossible

Becomes absolutely possible.

```

14688

```

Implicit faith says,

“God’s Way

Is the only way.”

```

14689

```

If the seeker says to God:

“Not Your Way,

But another way we can be successful,”

God withdraws His reliance

From him.

```

14690

```

You are in the world of confusion

Because your self-reliance,

Instead of God-reliance,

Does not allow you to see

Greater light.

```

14691

```

God’s Oneness with humanity

Goes far beyond the scope

Of human judgement.

```

14692

```

With earthly knowledge

We go at bullock-cart speed

In our outer life.

```

14693

```

With Heavenly wisdom

We fly in the firmament of the Beyond

In our inner life.

```

14694

```

When you are soulfully aspiring,

You simply run to fulfil God

In His own Way.

```

14695

```

When you are not soulfully aspiring,

You come to God only with suggestions

To fulfil Him in your own way.

```

14696

```

My Lord, please allow me

To see the Light in Your own Way,

To feel the Light in Your own Way,

To become what You want me to be

In Your own Way,

Not my way. ```

14697

```

It is only my prayer

That can feed my determination

To please the Supreme

In His own Way. ```

14698

```

Every morning

My mind convinces me,

“It is too early,

Too early to pray to God.” ```

14699

```

The next moment

My mind laughs at me,

“You fool, now it is too late,

Too late to meditate on God.” ```

14700

```

When we do not obey God,

We must pray to Him

To prepare us

To listen to Him next time. ```

14701

```

I do not want to conquer

Any other world

Save my own inner world.

```

14702

```

When I dive deep within,

I can leave my heart’s inner door

Always open.

```

14703

```

Forgiveness-power

God’s Compassion-Light has

And always is.

```

14704

```

May my morning begin

With the breath of kindness

And sweetness.

```

14705

```

Every day

We must clear

Our jungle-mind.

```

14706

```

We must not ply our life-boat

Between our heart’s aspiration-shore

And our mind’s desire-shore.

```

14707

```

May my heart-cries

Bring to the fore

My divinity within.

```

14708

```

I want nothing and I need nothing

When my Lord Beloved Supreme

Becomes the mainspring

Of my aspiration-life. ```

14709

```

My inner faith is an invisible chain

That binds me

To Infinity’s Delight.

```

14710

```

Each new child

Is a new promise of God

To Mother Earth.

```

14711

```

Nothing can be as rich

And powerful

As the silence of the heart.

```

14712

```

Purity produces

A large supply of oxygen

For the temporarily sick

God-lovers. ```

14713

```

Every day

Keep your heart crying

So that your mounting

Aspiration-flames

Will never be in danger.

```

14714

```

My mind-teacher

Teaches me

What I do not actually know.

```

14715

```

My heart-teacher

Teaches me

What I once upon a time knew.

```

14716

```

My mind tells me

That I have plenty of time

To please God.

My heart tells me,

“No, no, no!”

```

14717

```

Indeed, there are difficulties in life,

But God tells us

That each and every difficulty

Can be surmounted. ```

14718

```

May my heart’s surrender-breath

Be absolutely loyal

To the dust of my Lord’s Will.

```

14719

```

God’s Bliss every day

Feeds the tears

Of my heart.

```

14720

```

All I want

Is not an escape from ignorance,

But a complete victory over ignorance.

```

14721

```

If there is true love,

Then the question of superiority

Does not arise.

```

14722

```

Self-effacement

Is blissful and peaceful

Beyond measure.

```

14723

```

God lovingly divides Himself

So that each human being

Can have enough of Him.

```

14724

```

My Lord Supreme,

Do give me the capacity

To pray to You

For the fastest recovery

From insecurity-attacks.

```

14725

```

A singer of the heart

Is a teacher

Of the inner awakening.

```

14726

```

God wants me to be

The life-breath

Of His all-illumining Height.

```

14727

```

My heart-preparation

Always leads me

To my life-fulfilment.

```

14728

```

When we pray,

The answers to our prayers

Change our darkness into light.

```

14729

```

God is my good Friend.

God the Compassion

Is my better Friend.

God the Forgiveness

Is by far my best Friend.

```

14730

```

A true friend

Is a special Blessing-Light

From the omniscient, omnipresent

And omnipotent God. ```

14731

```

A new friend

Is a new

God-Oneness-Embrace.

```

14732

```

An old friend

Is Eternity, Infinity

And Immortality’s

Confidence-Assurance-Delight. ```

14733

```

Friendship

Is a challenge

Against ignorance-warship.

```

14734

```

Friendship means

God’s blessingful

And cheerful Invitation

For His sweet children

To play inside

His Satisfaction-Heart-Garden. ```

14735

```

My friend,

Do you know

That God has given you

Your two beautiful eyes

To make me and keep me

Heavenly happy? ```

14736

```

My friend,

Do you know

That God has given you

Your pure heart

To make me and keep me

Always perfect? ```

14737

```

Friendship means

The perfection

Of a mutual faith-invention.

```

14738

```

One good friend

And I need no more

To arrive together

At our destination:

The Golden Shore.

```

14739

```

My friend,

My oneness-heart friend,

I shall never question you.

I shall only love you

Inwardly, outwardly

And sleeplessly. ```

14740

```

Friendship means

Today’s God-oneness-vision.

Friendship means

Tomorrow’s God-fulness-victory. ```

14741

```

My friend secretly tells me

Not to worry.

He also tells me something else,

Which I must tell you secretly:

He will gladly cover up

All my Himalayan blunders. ```

14742

```

Because of human friendship,

This world of ours

Is still exceedingly beautiful.

```

14743

```

Because of divine friendship,

This world of ours

Is unimaginably fruitful.

```

14744

```

Friendship

Does breathe in this world.

Therefore,

God has absolutely no intention

Of withdrawing.

```

14745

```

My human friend says to me:

“Give me your heart;

I shall give you my life,

My entire life.” ```

14746

```

My divine friend says to me:

“I am all ready to give to you

My inner world of God-cries

And

My outer world of God-Smiles

Happily and unconditionally.

Delay not!

Take me, I am all yours.” ```

14747

```

My enemy says to me:

“Look what you are doing!

You are destroying the whole world.”

```

14748

```

My friend says to me:

“I am so proud of you.

You are selflessly and sleeplessly

Offering yourself

For the betterment of the world.”

```

14749

```

When I see a friend of mine,

Not only do I see divinity

Around his entire being,

But I also feel my own divinity

Unmistakably coming to the fore.

```

14750

```

If you are my true friend,

Then I deserve at least

Rightful approval

For what I say, do and become. ```

14751

```

What is friendship?

Friendship is the life-beauty

Of interdependence.

Friendship is the heart-fragrance

Of interdependence.

Friendship is the soul-immortality

Of interdependence.

```

14752

```

Human friendship

Is my outer

Support-success.

```

14753

```

Divine friendship

Is my inner

Transport-import-progress.

```

14754

```

The space between two friends

Is covered by

Gratitude-heart-blossoms.

```

14755

```

My friend

Is my

Defeat-concealment-hush.

```

14756

```

What I call

My friendship-expression,

God calls

His Heaven-expansion. ```

14757

```

In the oneness-heart

There is abiding peace.

With our oneness-heart

We are all trying to create

A peaceful world-family.

```

14758

```

Bring your heart’s inner happiness

Into your mind.

In the twinkling of an eye

You will be inundated

With inspiration.

```

14759

```

Not only your prayer

But the joint prayer

Of humanity

Is helping humanity’s progress

Considerably.

```

14760

```

I am not the doer

But an instrument.

I am trying every day,

Every hour, every minute

To become a better instrument

Of God’s Will. ```

14761

```

When each human being becomes

A choice instrument of God,

Then a world-oneness-home

Will not and cannot remain

A far cry.

```

14762

```

I give full credit to God’s Grace.

Out of His infinite Compassion

And Bounty,

God the Omnipotent

Acts in and through me

In the twinkling of an eye. ```

14763

```

Let us not stop.

Let us continue and continue.

If we have an iota of peace,

Then let us try to have more peace,

Abundant peace, boundless peace.

This is our way of transcending

And becoming,

Becoming and transcending. ```

14764

```

At every moment I love God

Without expecting anything from Him;

I devote myself to His Will

Consciously and soulfully;

I surrender my earth-bound life

To His Heaven-free Consciousness. ```

14765

```

While offering to our Lord Supreme

What we have and what we are,

We receive from Him infinite Joy,

Infinite Love, infinite Compassion

And infinite Fulfilment.

```

14766

```

A day will come

When this world of ours

Will be liberated

From misunderstanding,

Limitations and weaknesses.

It will be a happy, illumining

And fulfilling oneness-family.

```

14767

```

On the strength of our prayer

And meditation,

We can come out of

Our mental prison

And fly in the sky

Of Infinity. ```

14768

```

God is all Compassion.

His Justice itself is an act

Of Compassion,

To perfect our human nature

And to expedite our spiritual journey.

```

14769

```

We will never limit ourselves

If we can feel

That there is Somebody deep within us

To inspire us, to guide us,

To mould us, to shape us

And to take us

To an ever-transcending reality.

```

14770

```

We think of ourselves

As ignorance incarnate,

But God thinks of us

As another God

Who is blossoming

And illumining and fulfilling

His cosmic Vision.

```

14771

```

God will not be satisfied

With individual success

Or progress.

He wants His entire creation

To be absolutely perfect.

It is just a matter of time. ```

14772

```

There shall come a time

When each individual

Will pray and meditate soulfully

And unconditionally

To become God’s choice instrument,

For that is the Will

Of the Absolute Supreme.

```

14773

```

If you can create harmony

In your own life,

This harmony will enter

Into the vast world. ```

14774

```

At your journey’s start,

Feel that your mind is pure,

Your heart is receptive

And your life is all ready to surrender

To God’s Will.

```

14775

```

Once we have peace,

We feel that

We have everything

And

We have become everything.

```

14776

```

Meditation is everybody’s birthright.

In meditation

We establish our oneness

With the entire world,

And our whole being is inundated

With peace. ```

14777

```

In my case,

It is not a matter of decision;

It is a matter of obedience.

I simply listen to the Dictates

Of my Inner Pilot.

```

14778

```

Whatever you are doing,

If you can feel oneness

With other human beings,

With the world,

Then you will be successful

Far beyond your own imagination. ```

14779

```

Only by our positive thinking,

By our bringing the positive qualities

Of others to the fore,

Will this world be able

To make progress.

```

14780

```

In the long run

It is the lovers of mankind,

Not the haters of mankind,

Who will be the real winners. ```

14781

```

Look only at the bright side.

The bright side means

To have faith in ourselves and in others

And to feel oneness, oneness, oneness. ```

14782

```

We are all leaves, flowers and fruits

On the different religion-branches

Of the birthless and deathless life-tree.

```

14783

```

The soul is happier

When the body is stronger.

The soul will be happier

Than the happiest

If inner aspiration is added

To outer strength. ```

14784

```

Everything we can get

From our aspiration

Inside the heart of Nature,

Mother Earth. ```

14785

```

The Supreme sheds ceaseless Tears

When His spiritual children

Are complete failures.

```

14786

```

Alas,

The modern day machine-world

Has destroyed

The simplicity, sincerity,

Purity and spontaneity

Of the golden days of yore. ```

14787

```

If we are in a good consciousness,

The soul watches us.

If we are not in a good consciousness,

The soul does other things

Which are infinitely more important.

```

14788

```

Just silence the mind.

Lo!

Cosmic energy enters

Into our entire being,

And tremendous energy

Flows in and through us. ```

14789

```

When the inner life

Comes to the fore,

It accepts, assimilates

And transforms

In order to make us perfect.

```

14790

```

Our prayer and meditation

Determine beforehand

What is needed.

Then they bring to us

The things that are essential.

```

14791

```

Only by serving the Supreme

Do we participate

In His divine manifestation.

```

14792

```

God gave us the body-temple.

Now we have to be strong and pure

In every way

To prepare the heart-shrine

For the inner Spirit.

```

14793

```

The outer running inspires us

To dive deep within.

The inner running inspires us

To keep the body-temple

In perfect condition

For our inner and outer satisfaction. ```

14794

```

What I give,

I try to embody

In my life.

```

14795

```

With our dedicated service

We bring forward

Others’ divine qualities,

Which are of paramount importance

For us to lift up the world

Together. ```

14796

```

Misunderstanding reigns supreme

In this world.

God alone can judge

Whether our motives are sincere

And genuine.

```

14797

```

Try to listen

To the dictates of your heart,

And try to establish

Your inseparable oneness

With the rest of the world.

```

14798

```

Most often we abide

By the dictates of the mind.

But if we pray and meditate

Regularly, soulfully

And devotedly,

We listen to the dictates

Of our heart.

```

14799

```

This world belongs

To God the Creator.

At the same time

God the Creator has become

God the creation.

```

14800

```

This is my only prayer:

To be a conscious, devoted,

Cheerful and, finally, unconditional

Instrument of God. ```

14801

```

I prayed to God to make me

A learned man.

God said to me,

“You fool,

I do not want you to be

A learned man.

I want you to be

A wisdom-heart.” ```

14802

```

A good citizen of the world

A world-enlightenment-inspiration.

```

14803

```

My Lord Supreme,

Out of Your infinite Bounty,

You have given my soul

The capacity

To be in a self-absorbing trance,

To enjoy

Your Immortality’s infinite Compassion.

```

14804

```

If you hurl division-arrows

At God,

He will definitely give you a zero,

And that zero

Will be your worst punishment.

```

14805

```

God has not made anybody

Indispensable.

But out of His infinite Bounty,

He gives us opportunities

To become good citizens

Of the world,

To become His divine,

Supreme instruments. ```

14806

```

My Lord Supreme,

I do not want greatness.

I do not want even goodness.

I want only to be

A speck of humility-dust

To remind me

Of my sleepless servitude.

```

14807

```

My Lord Supreme,

What is the difference

Between faith and love?

“My child, there is no difference

Between faith and love.

Faith is the heart of love,

And

Love is the breath of faith.” ```

14808

```

If we obey God,

We play a most significant role.

At that time His infinite Compassion

Makes us feel

That we are indispensable.

```

14809

```

I get joy

And satisfaction

From trying!

```

14810

```

If something is

More than real,

More than divine,

More than perfect,

Then it is

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye. ```

14811

```

My Supreme, my Supreme, my Supreme,

May my life-boat every day ply

Between

My singleness-mind-shore

And

My oneness-heart-shore. ```

14812

```

God’s greatest and highest Vision:

The complete transformation

Of man’s nature.

```

14813

```

At long last

I am able to yoke my mind

To my Lord’s Compassion-Will.

```

14814

```

My Lord,

How I wish You to manage

Each and every department

Of my present and future life-store! ```

14815

```

To march with God

Is definitely good.

To march for God

Is infinitely better. ```

14816

```

If you are helping others,

You are definitely serving

The Source.

Your devoted oneness-feeling

Is entering into the highest Absolute.

```

14817

```

A divine thought is indeed

A specially divine link

Between

Man’s aspiration-heart

And

God’s Compassion-Eye. ```

14818

```

My heart’s gratitude-tears

Show me the shortest way

To God’s Golden Shore.

```

14819

```

Each desire,

No matter how insignificant,

Is an aspiration-failure.

```

14820

```

Desiring is

A thinking and sinking process

Of life.

```

14821

```

Aspiring is

A climbing and smiling process

Of life.

```

14822

```

A crying heart

Is the first step

Towards God-realisation.

```

14823

```

A surrendering life

Is the last step

Towards God-realisation.

```

14824

```

The real meaning of crucifixion is

Humanity’s ignorance

Exposed.

```

14825

```

God is enamoured

Of my heart’s

Gratitude-flood.

```

14826

```

While sleeping,

I love my Lord’s

Heaven-Eye.

```

14827

```

While awake,

I love my Lord’s

Haven-Feet.

```

14828

```

Unhappiness is

The mind’s dense

Confusion-life.

```

14829

```

Happiness is

The heart’s great contribution

To life.

```

14830

```

I do not want to have any day

In my life

With even a single breath

Of God-doubt. ```

14831

```

The mind-written books

Are empty

Of God-Love.

```

14832

```

Ego says

To confusion:

“I have what I wanted.”

```

14833

```

Confusion says

To ego:

“I am what I needed.”

```

14834

```

A desire-mind

Is indeed

A homeless life.

```

14835

```

An unhappy mind

Receives nothing

From Above.

```

14836

```

A happy face

Receives something

From Above.

```

14837

```

A happy heart

Receives everything

From Above.

```

14838

```

The human in us

Tries to hide

Our weaknesses.

```

14839

```

The divine in us

Tries to hide

Our lofty achievements.

```

14840

```

The Supreme in us

Neither hides

His Eternity and Infinity from us,

Nor reveals

His Infinity and Eternity to us,

For He wants to remain both unknown

And unknowable.

```

14841

```

If you are a secret choice of God,

Then God will bless you

With His own sacred Voice.

```

14842

```

When the mind is wild,

The heart does not have to be mild;

The heart has to be indomitable.

```

14843

```

When I am in my mind,

I love

Dire contradictions.

```

14844

```

When I am in my heart,

I love

Surest convictions.

```

14845

```

A ruthless mind

A homeless creation.

```

14846

```

A heart of devotion

Is a matchless treasure

Of God.

```

14847

```

No seeker can reach

His ultimate Destination

In one incarnation.

```

14848

```

At every moment

I prayerfully harvest

My Master’s

Powerful commands. ```

14849

```

To know God’s Will

In all its totality

Is indispensable

For any God-seeker. ```

14850

```

To a sincere seeker,

Insincerity is an open floodgate

Of anxiety.

```

14851

```

God believes in leading

And guiding us

And not in chastising us.

```

14852

```

Either in the desire-life

Or in the aspiration-life,

Depression-torture

Is shockingly unbearable. ```

14853

```

God says to my heart,

“Give Me a prayerful tear.

I shall give you what I have

In measureless measure.” ```

14854

```

God says to my mind,

“Give Me a soulful smile.

I shall give you

What I eternally am.” ```

14855

```

Although life is transitory,

God has given us the capacity

To leave behind

Our immortal achievements

On earth.

```

14856

```

Rest assured,

God has not finished

With even one single creation

Of His. ```

14857

```

The heart-eye

Always looks for

Divinity’s blossoms

Everywhere. ```

14858

```

Like my heart,

May my mind also use

The God-eagerness-express train.

```

14859

```

Surrender

Does not renounce anything.

It only announces

God’s Victory all-where. ```

14860

```

God-disobedience

Is the worst possible

Soul-torture.

```

14861

```

God-obedience

Is soul-delight

Par excellence.

```

14862

```

O my heart, like my soul,

Can you not every day

Wish every citizen of the world

Peace? ```

14863

```

A self-giving heart

Gives abundant joy

To God’s Heart

At every moment. ```

14864

```

God sings and dances

In my

God-eagerness-heart-garden.

```

14865

```

I must not give up,

I must not.

As God is real,

Even so,

My success is certain.

```

14866

```

My Lord Supreme,

When You reprimand me,

I immediately feel

Nothing but Your Sweetness

And Intimacy.

```

14867

```

I do hope that one day

My body, my vital

And my mind

May be worthy

Of my Lord’s scolding.

```

14868

```

Precious beyond measure

Are my thoughts

When they come down

From the highest Heaven. ```

14869

```

My morning begins

And my evening begins

With my heart’s

God-gratitude-tears. ```

14870

```

When I read spiritual books,

I feed my human mind

Voraciously.

```

14871

```

When I pray and meditate,

God feeds my heart and life

Sumptuously.

```

14872

```

May my love of divinity

Take away once and for all

The breath of my world-criticism.

```

14873

```

May my inner pilgrimage start

With a sweet Smile

From my Beloved Supreme.

```

14874

```

The difference between

The human in me

And the divine in me

Is this:

The human in me wants

To prove to the world

That it is self-sufficient.

The divine in me wants

To prove to the world

That it is sleeplessly

And breathlessly God-dependent.

```

14875

```

May my meditation-silence

Serve

The world-transformation-vision

At every moment. ```

14876

```

God-unwilling ears

Have covered

The length and breadth

Of the world. ```

14877

```

I came into the world

To satisfy

My Lord’s Heart

And not my head. ```

14878

```

A sleepless surrender-life

Is a short cut

To God-realisation-destination.

```

14879

```

May my gratitude-heart-kite

Fly to the Feet

Of my Lord Supreme.

```

14880

```

No matter what I do,

I am sure my Master

Will never withdraw

From my life-breath. ```

14881

```

A fleeting smile of my Master

An abiding memory for me.

```

14882

```

In the inner world,

The hearts of the disciples

Are made of

The Master’s affection. ```

14883

```

In the outer world,

The lives of the disciples

Are made of

The Master’s concern. ```

14884

```

God wants to hear from me

Only one thing:

I no longer need the satisfaction

Of ignorance-night. ```

14885

```

My Lord,

Please do not think

That You are obliged to appear

Before me

Each time I offer You

My devotion-tears. ```

14886

```

My Lord,

May Your divine Commands

Rule every detail

Of my life. ```

14887

```

Where do the tears

Of my outer life go?

They go and take shelter

At my Lord’s Compassion-Feet. ```

14888

```

Alas, why do we still

Allow ignorance

To enjoy its full residence

In our aspiration-life? ```

14889

```

Each seeker can live

In the haven

Of Heaven-ecstasy.

```

14890

```

Only a devotion-heart

Is thrilled

When it catches a glimpse

Of the Master’s eye. ```

14891

```

Alas, my mind’s indifference

To God

And my heart’s closeness

To God

Are poles apart.

```

14892

```

I must not approach my Lord Supreme

Either with my heart’s reserve

Or with my mind’s caution.

```

14893

```

May my God-obedience

Be always

Soulful and cheerful.

```

14894

```

My heart’s smile-blossoms

Heal

My Lord’s aching Heart.

```

14895

```

I am so fortunate

That I am allowed to worship

The sacred dust of my Lord’s Feet

At any moment I want to. ```

14896

```

May my God-satisfaction-thirst

Be sincere, pure

And unquenchable.

```

14897

```

There has never been a time

When there was no peace-shortage

In the world.

```

14898

```

My constant surrender

To God’s Will

Is by far the best

Of all my dreams. ```

14899

```

Eagerness

In our God-obedience-heart

Is extremely precious and valuable.

```

14900

```

God proudly greets

My gratitude-heart-tears. ```

14901

```

No matter where you are,

Always keep your heart’s door open

To your Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

14902

```

Open your heart’s door.

Whatever you need,

You will immediately receive

From God. ```

14903

```

Open your heart’s door.

Lo, love, devotion and oneness

Are already there.

```

14904

```

Open your heart’s door.

Lo, you will find only you and God

Inside your heart’s room.

```

14905

```

Once your heart’s door is open,

Surrender-plant and gratitude-plant

Will grow and glow.

```

14906

```

The philosophy of love and oneness

Is not only God’s philosophy,

But the philosophy of all

Aspiration-hearts. ```

14907

```

The philosophy of love and oneness

Is the philosophy of all who

Sleeplessly love God

And

Cheerfully serve God.

```

14908

```

Those who lead a prayerful life

Receive unmistakably

Very special Love from God.

```

14909

```

Those who lead a prayerful life

Are undoubtedly

Inspiring citizens of the world.

```

14910

```

Those who love God

And feel oneness with His creation

Definitely belong

To His inner circle. ```

14911

```

Only if we feel our love

And oneness with one another

Shall our Pilot Supreme

Cherish our hearts. ```

14912

```

If there is no love or oneness,

God is bound to remain

Unfulfilled on earth.

```

14913

```

Only when God showers upon us

His infinite Compassion

Unconditionally

Is our progress faster than the fastest. ```

14914

```

Only when we draw upon

Our inner strength

Can we make tremendous and real

Outer progress. ```

14915

```

When we pray,

We ask God to take us

To the highest Height.

```

14916

```

When we pray,

God teaches us

How to climb up

The God-Tree. ```

14917

```

When we pray,

We beg God to come down

And give us

His inner Treasures. ```

14918

```

When we meditate,

God teaches us

How to safely come down

The God-Tree

With delicious joy-fruits.

```

14919

```

When we meditate,

We readily share our joy-fruits

With humanity.

```

14920

```

To become good citizens

Of the world,

We have to love the divine

In humanity. ```

14921

```

Let us only care about loving God

And not worry about

Which religion is the best.

```

14922

```

We have to allow the inner world —

The world that wants to supply us

With light, joy, peace and oneness —

To come to the fore. ```

14923

```

If I truly love God,

I go beyond the boundaries

Of religion

And feel oneness

With all God’s children.

```

14924

```

When we talk about peace,

Often we are only juggling

With the word ‘peace’.

```

14925

```

Why is there no peace in the world?

Alas, everybody wants peace

In his own way:

A very peculiar way. ```

14926

```

Many feel that if they are the lords

And others are their slaves,

Then only can there be peace.

```

14927

```

Many want peace,

Provided they are allowed to stand

In front of others.

```

14928

```

Many do not want to have peace

By walking alongside others.

They always want to be

One step ahead. ```

14929

```

We can never

Find peace

By lording it over others.

```

14930

```

Only when everybody

Is on the same footing

Will there be peace.

```

14931

```

Real peace

Lies in

Inseparable oneness.

```

14932

```

If you are somewhere,

I am also there with you

Lovingly and self-givingly.

Indeed, this is true peace. ```

14933

```

If the world is going to change,

First we will have to change

In our hearts.

```

14934

```

Prayer and meditation

Come from the heart,

Not from the mind.

```

14935

```

The mind cannot give us peace.

It has to get peace

From the heart first.

```

14936

```

The soul has infinite peace.

Right now the heart

Has only limited peace.

```

14937

```

If we pray and meditate,

Our heart will be in tune with God

And get peace in infinite measure.

```

14938

```

The heart is ready and eager

To give peace to the mind,

But the mind is not receiving.

```

14939

```

The mind uses the word ‘peace’

But does not feel

The real necessity

Of having peace. ```

14940

```

Those who live in the heart

Do feel

The real peace-necessity.

```

14941

```

Through prayer and meditation

We expand our heart

And bring peace

To the mind. ```

14942

```

All those who pray and meditate

Are helping others

Who sincerely want peace in the world.

```

14943

```

We cannot say that tomorrow

The whole world

Will be inundated with peace,

But we must continue sowing the seeds. ```

14944

```

Our prayers and meditations

Are like seeds.

One day they will grow into tiny plants

And finally

Into giant banyan peace-trees.

```

14945

```

A man of prayer

Composes music

With his soulful heart.

```

14946

```

A man of prayer

Conveys spiritual inspiration

To the world at large

Through his music. ```

14947

```

One thing

Is to see the highest.

Another thing

Is to be in the highest

And remain in the highest.

```

14948

```

One thing

Is to see mankind’s necessity.

Another thing

Is to be of true help. ```

14949

```

When God manifests Himself

Through Compassion-Humour,

It is so charming and thrilling.

```

14950

```

Even the very limited development

Of the aspirant

Goes fast, faster, fastest

When Grace descends from Above. ```

14951

```

Alas, the intellectual mind

Does not want to take

Even one step towards spirituality.

```

14952

```

A mind with even a little illumination

Feels the supreme necessity

Of world-union

And world-peace. ```

14953

```

The earth-bound mind

Does not want to see the light

Or go one step forward.

```

14954

```

When the mind is not fossilized,

The soul can make very fast progress

In and through the mind.

```

14955

```

Descent of consciousness

Is like

A dead existence.

```

14956

```

You are a fool if you think

Material success and spiritual progress

Are of equal importance.

```

14957

```

Spiritual seekers will bring to the fore

Material success

Only if it is founded upon spirituality.

```

14958

```

Spiritual progress expands:

From one drop to the infinite Ocean,

From an iota of light to infinite Light.

```

14959

```

Material success

Without spirituality

Only takes us away

From others. ```

14960

```

Spiritual progress

Unites us

With the rest of the world.

```

14961

```

Material success

May separate us

From the rest of the world.

```

14962

```

Spiritual progress does not exclude

Material success,

But spirituality must always come first.

```

14963

```

If I make a comparison,

Spirituality is a vast ocean;

My aspiration is a tiny drop.

```

14964

```

Manifestation brings satisfaction

When it comes from

Spiritual awakening.

```

14965

```

Spirituality has to be the root of life,

With inspiration and aspiration

First and foremost.

```

14966

```

In the spiritual life

There is no rest.

Either we have to go forward

Or our nature will take us backward! ```

14967

```

Progress does not depend on

What you outwardly do

For God,

But on what you inwardly become

For God.

```

14968

```

If you try to meditate on God

Without the spiritual breath

Inside you,

You will be totally lost. ```

14969

```

If you try to manifest God

Without the inner purity

Of divinity,

You will be totally lost. ```

14970

```

Do not serve God

Even unconsciously

With your self-importance.

```

14971

```

With your inner breath

Serve and please God

In His own Way.

```

14972

```

Pleasure

Sooner or later

Will meet with destruction.

```

14973

```

Joy

Spontaneously blossoms

And lasts and lasts.

```

14974

```

Instead of enjoying ignorance-sleep,

Pray and meditate

To bring down divine Light

To solve all your earthly problems. ```

14975

```

The joy you receive

From your early morning meditation

Can accompany you the whole day.

```

14976

```

The pleasure you get

From ignorance-sleep

Disappears

The moment you enter into

Daily activities.

```

14977

```

In the morning if you do not receive

Divine Love and Light from God,

You can be of no real help

To the world. ```

14978

```

The moment you wallow

In the pleasures of ignorance,

Destruction is imminent.

```

14979

```

In spirituality we go beyond religion.

Real spirituality

Is the vastness of oneness.

```

14980

```

When the religion-bird

Flies in the spirituality-sky,

It far transcends religion-limitations.

```

14981

```

Narrow-mindedness

Wants to see the truth-lake

In its own way.

```

14982

```

New awareness and new awakening

Aspire to see the truth-ocean

In God’s own Way.

```

14983

```

From country to country I must roam

To offer my love

And feel my oneness

With all God’s children. ```

14984

```

Let my philosophy be love,

Good wishes

And brotherhood.

```

14985

```

Those who love darkness

Will eventually be found

In the land of nowhere.

```

14986

```

Those who negate God’s existence

Will one day realise

There is no satisfaction

In the absence of light. ```

14987

```

God-lovers already have some light.

But they are trying to have more light,

Infinite Light.

```

14988

```

Because we do not have peace

Inside our hearts,

We love to exercise

Our supremacy. ```

14989

```

Because we feel inwardly weak,

We cover up our weaknesses

By showing

Our aggression-strength. ```

14990

```

If there is peace,

Then

There is bound to be love.

```

14991

```

When my heart is pure,

I see myself within the orbit

Of my Lord’s celestial Will.

```

14992

```

My Beloved Lord,

Let us simultaneously broadcast

That You chose me

And I chose You. ```

14993

```

My Lord Supreme,

Yesterday

I was Your Compassion-bud.

Today

I am Your Perfection-flower.

Tomorrow

I shall be Your Satisfaction-fruit.

```

14994

```

You do not have to pray

To all the gods, goddesses, angels

And saints,

As long as you pray to

The Highest Absolute.

```

14995

```

If you pray to the Supreme,

If you go to the root,

You will find all the deities

And saints there. ```

14996

```

The more you consciously value

God the creation,

The sooner God the Creator

Will give you

His Heart, His All.

```

14997

```

Each intense, sincere

And soulful prayer-flame

Immediately reaches

The Highest. ```

14998

```

If our prayer-flame is not intense,

Doubt-fear-anxiety-storm destroys it

Long before it reaches the Highest.

```

14999

```

When I sincerely pray and meditate,

God brings

The great temple-consciousness

To my tiny heart-home. ```

15000

```

Your aspiration-power

Will bring you

An entirely new

And brightly shining

Life-mirror.
