Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees, part 35

34001

```

My first lesson from God

Is how to love. ```

34002

```

My second lesson from God

Is how to live. ```

34003

```

My third lesson from God

Is how to become

What God wants me to become.

```

34004

```

My Lord and I

Want to play a new game:

I will enter into

His Infinity;

He will enter into

My finite existence. ```

34005

```

Happiness is the only medicine

That can brighten our hearts

And enlighten our minds.

```

34006

```

True, nothing comes to God

As a surprise,

But when we do something extraordinary,

God blesses us

With His infinite Joy and Pride.

```

34007

```

True devotion comes slowly,

Steadily and unerringly,

With no fanfare of drums and trumpets.

```

34008

```

Meditation

Is a very strong and high staircase

To take us to Heaven.

```

34009

```

The inner aspiration

Makes our outer eyes and face

Very beautiful.

```

34010

```

Each God-seeker

Must be

A world-harmony-dreamer.

```

34011

```

The aura

Of a self-giving life

Is unimaginably beautiful.

```

34012

```

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye

Every morning

Clears my life-road.

```

34013

```

Alas, I have so many important things

To do for God.

Why do I fan my desire-flames

Again and again? ```

34014

```

Early in the morning,

If we do not structure our day carefully,

We cannot accomplish

Anything memorable. ```

34015

```

Where can I find a true friend

If not inside the Heart

Of my Lord Supreme?

```

34016

```

We must always brave

Our inner trials and tribulations

To become victorious in life.

```

34017

```

O my seeker-friends, do not worry.

Can you not see that God is here,

Right in front of you,

In disguise? ```

34018

```

God and I

Are eagerly looking

For my heart’s sunrise.

```

34019

```

The path of the mind

Is invariably

Full of thorns and thistles.

```

34020

```

When the tears of my heart

Sing for my Lord Supreme,

His Eye becomes as vast

As the ocean of tears. ```

34021

```

Listen and obey.

Nothing else God expects

From us.

```

34022

```

Only my God-surrender

Can devour

Ignorance-night.

```

34023

```

Every day

I have something new

To learn:

How to please God

In God’s own Way.

```

34024

```

God’s Compassion-Eye was born

Long before

God’s Justice-Hands.

```

34025

```

No mountain, no ocean

Can obstruct

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye.

```

34026

```

Like my heart,

I am always eager to obey

My Lord’s every Wish.

```

34027

```

Even if I have to wait indefinitely,

I am prepared to wait

For God’s Forgiveness-Light.

```

34028

```

Hope awakens my heart

To enter into the newness-soul

Of life.

```

34029

```

God wants me

To be in a tearing hurry

Only when He wants me

To do something

For Him.

```

34030

```

I shall not allow my mind

To dictate

Even a moment

Of my life. ```

34031

```

When you prepare for God

Soulfully,

He comes down

Immediately. ```

34032

```

Idleness means nothingness,

And nothingness means

Self-extinction.

```

34033

```

God the Smiler

Is

My aspiration-heart-nourisher.

```

34034

```

My devotion-heart

And

My prayerful tears

Are extremely close friends. ```

34035

```

When we desire,

We go around in circles. ```

34036

```

When we aspire,

We arrive at a new horizon. ```

34037

```

I use my eyes

Only to see

God’s Eye-Beauty.

```

34038

```

I use my heart

Only to smell

God’s Heart-Fragrance.

```

34039

```

A peerless Heaven-climber

Is beckoned

By God Himself.

```

34040

```

In the spiritual life,

If we do not go forward,

We are forced to go backward

On life’s track. ```

34041

```

The God-seeker’s profession

Shall always remain

Unparalleled.

```

34042

```

My morning meditation

And the rising sun

Love to live in each other.

```

34043

```

Love spreads

The smile of the heart. ```

34044

```

Smile carries us

To the ever-transcending Beyond. ```

34045

```

An aspiring heart

Is bound to know

Whether its tears

Are true or false. ```

34046

```

Slowly and steadily

I see my tearful eyes

Everywhere.

```

34047

```

Suddenly

I see my peaceful heart

Everywhere.

```

34048

```

If you are an advanced seeker,

Then the galaxies will definitely revolve

In your eyes.

```

34049

```

How to conquer doubt

Is always a prime subject

For all seekers.

```

34050

```

Alas, divine thoughts

Are sadly outnumbered

By undivine thoughts.

```

34051

```

The tears of the heart

And the smiles of the soul

Always remain immutable.

```

34052

```

The success-road

Is paved

With patience and perseverance.

```

34053

```

Aspiration itself

Is

A Heaven-bound flight.

```

34054

```

My heart’s ascending cries

And God’s descending Smiles

Have mutual admiration

For each other. ```

34055

```

Stupidity

Is quite often masked

By cleverness.

```

34056

```

Everybody is afraid

To be unpopular. ```

34057

```

I withdraw my surrender quite often,

But my Lord does not withdraw

His Compassion.

```

34058

```

For a long time

I have been in search of

An unconditionally

God-surrendered life. ```

34059

```

Like God,

I do not bind myself —

I just give myself to the world

Unreservedly and unconditionally. ```

34060

```

The ultramodern spirituality

Does not believe in

Regularity and punctuality.

```

34061

```

We all wish

To keep our failures

Totally secret.

```

34062

```

We all wish

To keep our success

Universally public.

```

34063

```

I have many homes,

But my peace-home

Is the only home that I treasure.

```

34064

```

I think that

Except for me,

All human beings are real burdens.

```

34065

```

Those who make fun of me

Today

Will feel repentant

Tomorrow. ```

34066

```

Devotion-commotion

Is worse than useless. ```

34067

```

They say that I am an expert

In many things.

Now I pray to God

To make me an expert

In unlearning.

```

34068

```

If I truly aspire,

Then nothing on earth

Will disappoint me.

```

34069

```

Quite often

The vital drifts in and out of

The spiritual life.

```

34070

```

I must realise

That revenge is not

God’s Way.

```

34071

```

O my restless mind,

Keep quiet!

Allow God to speak

Without your interpretation. ```

34072

```

I hold God

Not inside my head,

Not inside my hands,

But inside my heart. ```

34073

```

My soul is thundering

Inside my feeble heart. ```

34074

```

My silence-teacher

Is the only teacher

That I badly need.

```

34075

```

I shall never allow

My old ignorance-self

To rise again.

```

34076

```

Publicity-abundance

Can easily slow down

Our heart’s progress.

```

34077

```

Once God opens

His Hands,

He never closes them.

```

34078

```

Man opens and closes

His hands

At his sweet will.

```

34079

```

Without improving oneself first,

To dream of a better world

Is the height of stupidity.

```

34080

```

May my aspiration-heart

Have no room

For distrust.

```

34081

```

God’s Forgiveness-Heart

Is never out of stock. ```

34082

```

To love man

God has taken

As His only Occupation.

```

34083

```

There are so many ways,

Inner and outer,

To please the Lord Supreme.

```

34084

```

Devotion-tears

Bring God to us

Fast, very fast.

```

34085

```

I feed on God’s beautiful Smiles

And

His powerful Blessings.

```

34086

```

God wants me to compete

With myself,

And transcend myself,

To be with Him. ```

34087

```

We must not hoard

Either our inner wealth

Or our outer wealth.

```

34088

```

Be careful of your mind’s fanfares.

They can bind you

And blind you.

```

34089

```

My heart-tears

Are my God-satisfaction-capacities. ```

34090

```

A soulful God-server

Does not know

What tiredness is.

```

34091

```

When we breathe in

The illumination of our soul,

We feel God is just in front of us,

Smiling. ```

34092

```

No life-tree

Can live

Without hope.

```

34093

```

Do not forget

That insecurity

Is a contagious disease.

```

34094

```

Who else takes,

And who else will take,

Our problem-burden

If not God? ```

34095

```

When my mind is pure,

God shows me

His Eye’s Waves

Of Light and Delight. ```

34096

```

This world

Has no dearth

Of self-styled responsibilities.

```

34097

```

The mind is fond of

Staying permanently

Inside thought-circles.

```

34098

```

When intensity awaits you,

Do not delay.

Start running!

```

34099

```

To have a happy life,

Free of anxieties,

We must develop our surrender-capacity

To God’s Will. ```

34100

```

Cast aside

As soon as possible

All your mind’s negativity-thoughts.

```

34101

```

Give everything,

If so is the Will of God. ```

34102

```

Need nothing,

If so is the Will of God. ```

34103

```

My heart-bird opens its eyes

To send a thrill to the world

For its satisfaction.

```

34104

```

My service-light receives Blessings

From God’s Transcendental Pride

And His Universal Delight.

```

34105

```

The shore of ecstasy

Beckons

My life-service-boat.

```

34106

```

As we cannot control

Our anger and pride,

God cannot control

His Compassion-Flow. ```

34107

```

I breathe in

My Lord’s Vision-Beauty. ```

34108

```

There is not a single day

That I do not shun

My negativity-mind.

```

34109

```

My heart-tears

Built

My God-realisation-palace.

```

34110

```

When we completely depend

On God,

He unreservedly gives us

What He has and what He is. ```

34111

```

My aspiration-heart

Thrives

On morning dew.

```

34112

```

Only with positive thoughts

Can we bring light

Into our mind-cave.

```

34113

```

A child’s heart

Is the most powerful

Happiness-announcer.

```

34114

```

Each and every thought

Of mine

I place at my Lord’s

Compassion-Feet. ```

34115

```

A sincere prayer-heart

Can never fail. ```

34116

```

Only God’s Compassion

Can destroy

Our attachment-bonds.

```

34117

```

To climb up

The towering aspiration-peak,

I must own

An unconditional God-surrender-life. ```

34118

```

Only humility knows

How to appreciate and admire

The good qualities of others.

```

34119

```

With my prayers and meditations

I must give my service-life

A ceaseless breath.

```

34120

```

My God-surrender

Is the green light

On my Heavenward journey.

```

34121

```

My heart-tears

Play a most significant role

In my God-discovery.

```

34122

```

Each time I open myself

To God’s Will wholeheartedly,

I see my imperfections

Start to wane. ```

34123

```

My mind wants to destroy

The rich friendship

That my soul and my heart enjoy.

```

34124

```

My mind can proudly ignore

My Lord’s Feet,

But my Lord cannot ignore

My mind’s arrogance and insolence. ```

34125

```

My heart tries

To throw light

Into my darkness-mind.

```

34126

```

My Lord came to me

To transform my life —

Not with His Power,

Not even with His Light,

But with His tearful Heart.

```

34127

```

My God-obedience

Is

My only life-protection.

```

34128

```

Sincerity

Is

The strongest safeguard.

```

34129

```

Temptation comes as a friend

But gradually becomes

The worst enemy.

```

34130

```

Every morning

A rainbow-dawn-road

Beckons me.

```

34131

```

It is I who have made

The insecurity-nets

Of my life.

```

34132

```

A disobedience-mind

Is totally useless

To my Lord Supreme.

```

34133

```

What I really need

Is

An inexhaustible hope.

```

34134

```

My Lord moves

From one place to another,

Only trying to find

A most reliable seeker. ```

34135

```

When God brings divine Gifts

For the mind,

The mind is utterly perplexed.

```

34136

```

Love is beauty’s

Sweet touch. ```

34137

```

Devotion is intensity’s

Quick touch. ```

34138

```

Surrender is Divinity’s

Tender touch. ```

34139

```

The mind and the vital

Strangely enjoy

Chaotic lifestyles.

```

34140

```

To me, God is perfect

Only when He thinks of me

And nobody else!

```

34141

```

I go to God

For my inspection. ```

34142

```

God comes to me

For my emancipation. ```

34143

```

I have no idea

When God’s Hour will strike,

But I know that God’s Hour

Does exist. ```

34144

```

When I think

Of God,

I am happy.

```

34145

```

When I pray

To God,

I am wise.

```

34146

```

When I meditate

On God,

I am deep.

```

34147

```

When I surrender

My entire being to God,

I am perfect,

Absolutely perfect. ```

34148

```

Morning gives us

Inspiration-flood. ```

34149

```

Evening gives us

Aspiration-mountain. ```

34150

```

Night gives us

Peace-sea. ```

34151

```

When I think of the known,

I see a service-road. ```

34152

```

When I think of the Unknown,

I see an express highway. ```

34153

```

When I think of the Unknowable,

My journey never starts. ```

34154

```

He who travels along Eternity’s Road

Will be befriended

By both Infinity and Immortality.

```

34155

```

Home is not where I live.

Home is where

I am all peace.

```

34156

```

God’s Fingers

Affectionately call me. ```

34157

```

God’s Hands

Lovingly show me

The Way.

```

34158

```

God’s Shoulders

Lovingly, unreservedly

And unconditionally

Carry me all the way. ```

34159

```

My love of God

Makes my eyes

Soulful.

```

34160

```

My devotion to God

Makes my heart

Blissful.

```

34161

```

My surrender to God

And God’s Will

Makes me perfect and complete.

```

34162

```

When I try to lord it over the world,

God tells me that my stupidity

Has reached the summit-height.

```

34163

```

I can clear my mind’s desire-clouds

Only when God-adoration-tears

Possess me.

```

34164

```

When God smiles at me,

What must I do?

I must immediately bring to the fore

My most precious possession:

Gratitude.

```

34165

```

The mind’s zigzag road

Does not frighten my heart.

On the contrary,

It fortifies my heart. ```

34166

```

I love God

Not because He is great,

Not because He is good,

But because He is my All

And I am His All.

```

34167

```

God does not care for my perfection.

He does not care even for my preparation.

He cares only for my readiness

And willingness. ```

34168

```

My heart-tears live between

My Master’s compassion-eye

And his affection-heart.

```

34169

```

If you pass your life-examination,

Automatically you will become

A God-manifestation-example.

```

34170

```

Alas, we cannot live

Without fanning

Our own desire-flames.

```

34171

```

God edits

Only when my soul writes

On God-realisation.

```

34172

```

We need implicit faith

In our own spiritual life

To brave our inner turbulence.

```

34173

```

My Lord Supreme,

I pray to You,

Do remove Your thick Mask!

```

34174

```

We cleverly deny

Our descent. ```

34175

```

We proudly glorify

Our ascent. ```

34176

```

Alas, we do not know

When we are being burnt

In desire-fire.

```

34177

```

The divine Beauty shines

No matter where it is —

Even in the thickest darkness.

```

34178

```

Alas, doubts and suspicions

Simply refuse to leave

The human mind.

```

34179

```

When my heart sails

On the devotion-sea,

Boundless joy

Captures my heart. ```

34180

```

No matter what I do,

My Lord’s all-illumining

And all-transforming Affection

Never leaves me. ```

34181

```

Sincerity

Is the sweetest melody

Of my aspiration-heart.

```

34182

```

The desire-life

Unconsciously follows

The footsteps of frustration.

```

34183

```

Temptation

Is always anxious

To capture our vital.

```

34184

```

My heart’s aspiration,

My mind’s determination

And my Lord’s Compassion —

When these three work together,

Impossibility surrenders immediately.

```

34185

```

Ingratitude

Enters into the mind-jungle

And grows

Without being invited. ```

34186

```

If you are God-aspiration-prone,

Then abandon your mind’s

Ambition-throne.

```

34187

```

Only time will tell

When humility will be appreciated

By all and sundry.

```

34188

```

To make fast progress,

Patience is unparalleled. ```

34189

```

Adversity

Unknowingly increases

Our inner strength.

```

34190

```

If anything remains unloved

In God’s Creation,

Then God’s Creation

Will never be perfect. ```

34191

```

Each time my soul smiles,

I feel that my heart

Is taking a giant step forward

Towards God. ```

34192

```

When my priorities

And God’s priorities tally,

We make each other

Extremely happy and proud. ```

34193

```

A sweetness-heart

Is God’s Blessing

Unimaginable.

```

34194

```

Before we speak,

We must breathe in

The Beauty and Fragrance

Of God’s Name. ```

34195

```

The mind desires

Only one thing:

Profit, profit, profit.

```

34196

```

The heart yearns for

Only one thing:

Inner progress, inner progress,

Inner progress. ```

34197

```

I found my own true self

Only after I came out of

My mind’s attachment-cave.

```

34198

```

When we bathe

In God’s Compassion-Eye-Sea,

Then we know that our life

Has something very significant

To offer mankind.

```

34199

```

My aspiration-heart

Invites me

To join in its Heavenward flight.

```

34200

```

God has very special Love,

Joy and Pride

For those who are always eager

To serve Him most lovingly

And most self-givingly.

```

34201

```

Enthusiasm

Is

Our journey’s victory.

```

34202

```

Nothing is as important

In the spiritual life

As consciousness.

```

34203

```

Either we go to the inspiration-bird,

Or we compel the inspiration-bird

To come to us,

So that we can create

Something momentous.

```

34204

```

Just by repeating,

“I am all ready

To surrender myself totally

To my Lord Supreme,”

We can develop unimaginable speed

In our spiritual life. ```

34205

```

Determination covers

Half the distance

To the Destination.

```

34206

```

In real spirituality

There is no such thing

As sacrifice.

It is all the beauty of love

And

The fragrance of oneness. ```

34207

```

The deeper we dive,

The stronger becomes

Our oneness with God

And with all humankind. ```

34208

```

Constant faithfulness

Is a most rare and difficult achievement

In the spiritual life.

```

34209

```

Sometimes we pray to God

To save us from imminent danger,

And sometimes we pray to God

To give us indomitable courage

To face the situation.

God prefers the latter. ```

34210

```

Be not timid!

Pray to God for courage.

Your inner spirit will come to the fore.

```

34211

```

A fearless spirit,

Founded upon God’s Grace,

Can be of great use

To save the face and fate of the world. ```

34212

```

Devotion is at once

Sweeter than the sweetest

And stronger than the strongest.

```

34213

```

Every day

We must try to feed

Our Lord Beloved Supreme

With our gratitude-heart-tears. ```

34214

```

Some people have faith

Only in themselves,

While others have faith only in God.

Still others have faith

Both in themselves and in God —

How I wish I could be

One of those fortunate ones!

```

34215

```

Out of His infinite Bounty,

God tells us, “My children,

If you cannot develop faith in Me,

No harm.

As long as you have faith in yourselves,

I shall be highly pleased.” ```

34216

```

The loyalty of a seeker to his Master

Is of invaluable importance

At every moment.

```

34217

```

From oneness

We derive peace.

From peace

We derive oneness. ```

34218

```

In the outer life,

Oneness comes first;

Peace follows.

```

34219

```

In the inner life,

Peace is self-existent. ```

34220

```

May my heart

Be singularly rich

In forgiveness.

```

34221

```

May my life

Be singularly rich

In sacrifice.

```

34222

```

God’s Aspiration-Hunger

Came into existence

Long before His Third Eye.

```

34223

```

Intensity in the body, vital and mind

Can create serious problems

For the God-seeker.

Why?

The body, vital and mind

Lack the purity and light

To help intensity do the right thing.

```

34224

```

The heart has light

From its close connection with the soul.

Therefore, the heart’s intensity

Always does the right thing. ```

34225

```

Alas,

Our body, vital and mind

Are right now plunged in darkness.

But there shall come a time

When they will receive light

In abundant measure. ```

34226

```

God has a fixed Hour

When He will grant me realisation —

It is not up to me to decide.

```

34227

```

The unlit intensity

Of the body, vital and mind

Desires to realise God overnight,

By hook or by crook. ```

34228

```

The illumined intensity of the heart

Says to God:

“My Lord, take as long as You want!

I shall do my part

Until Your Hour strikes for me.”

```

34229

```

Alas,

My whole world collapses

When God does not fulfil

The intensity-demands

Of my obscure body, vital and mind.

```

34230

```

Surrender is the sunlit path

To arrive at the Golden Shore

Of the ever-transcending Beyond.

```

34231

```

God is the most beautiful Child

Who has been playing, singing

And dancing

In His own Infinity’s Heart-Garden,

From time immemorial.

```

34232

```

Although unnoticeable,

Light is available

Inside even the darkest ignorance-night.

```

34233

```

The light inside ignorance-night

Is infinitesimal.

The light of the soul

Is measureless and fathomless. ```

34234

```

Oneness merrily approaches.

Division instantly collapses. ```

34235

```

No creation of God

Is empty of light. ```

34236

```

Always be wise.

Spend all your time

Where light is available

In boundless measure. ```

34237

```

O seeker,

Can you not see the vast expanse of ocean

Right in front of you?

Why then do you spend your life

Swimming only in the tiniest pond?

```

34238

```

Those who are most sincerely longing

For the divine Victory

Here on earth

Are, indeed, the hero-soldiers

Of the Supreme,

Chosen by the Supreme Himself. ```

34239

```

Willingness to be sleeplessly

And breathlessly

On God’s side

Is the precursor

To God-discovery.

```

34240

```

There is a vast difference

Between poise and tranquillity:

Tranquillity can be cultivated

In the earth-bound mind,

While poise is the direct messenger

Of Divinity’s inner Voice. ```

34241

```

Poise unites the Infinite

And the finite

In the breath of its own Immortality.

```

34242

```

Of all my divine qualities,

My poise has no equal.

This is my secret.

```

34243

```

To have absolute inner peace

In the face of life’s outer agitation

Is the meaning of divine poise.

```

34244

```

God has infinite instruments,

But He has chosen only two

To be closest to Him:

He who is aspiration-height

And

He who is service-delight. ```

34245

```

Since the very beginning of creation,

Mother Earth has offered countless gifts

To Father Heaven,

But, alas, still one more gift

She has to offer:

Humanity’s transformation. ```

34246

```

My Lord Supreme does not mind at all

When I break even the most solemn promise

I have made to Him.

Why?

Because He has the capacity

And is the capacity

To forgive me.

```

34247

```

My Lord Supreme becomes sad

And miserable

The moment I break

Even the simplest promise

I have made to myself.

Why?

Because He knows my incapacity

To forgive myself. ```

34248

```

Alas, we withdraw

Our promises to God

At our sweet will.

```

34249

```

When we make a promise to ourselves

And cannot fulfil our promise,

Ignorance-night envelops us

And danger looms large. ```

34250

```

When we make a promise to God

And do not fulfil our promise,

Ignorance-night does not dare to envelop us,

Because God is involved. ```

34251

```

When we fail to fulfil our promises,

We are doomed to disappointment.

We feel our life is nothing short of failure.

```

34252

```

My crying heart

Became fulness

When my life-moments

Became selfless. ```

34253

```

True satisfaction is available

Only when we go far beyond

The domain

Of the earth-bound mind. ```

34254

```

The mind gets satisfaction

Only from separativity

And supremacy.

```

34255

```

How stupid is the mind!

It steals joy from its own family members:

Body, vital and heart.

```

34256

```

The synonym of ‘mind’

Is ‘mine’.

The synonym of ‘heart’

Is ‘thine’. ```

34257

```

We can break through the ceiling

Of the earth-bound mind,

And enter the realm of the higher mind,

Only by virtue of our boundless poise

And boundless delight.

```

34258

```

Once you enter the realm

Of the higher mind,

You gain free access to it,

And you never again have to return

To the limited, earth-bound mind.

```

34259

```

I pray to God:

“My Lord Beloved Supreme,

Do inundate my earth-existence

With an indomitable spirit,

So that I can manifest You fully

Here on earth.”

God tells me:

“My child, first take Blessings

From My Heart,

Then take Blessings

From My Feet

And, finally, take Blessings

From My Eye.”

```

34260

```

Once you receive Blessings

From God’s Heart, from His Feet

And from His Eye,

There can be nothing —

Either here on earth

Or there in Heaven —

To bar your supreme Victory.

```

34261

```

God has Compassion, Affection,

Love and Sweetness for us

In boundless measure.

But when He sees a life of self-giving,

He also blessingfully offers

His ever-increasing Fondness

To this choicest instrument of His.

```

34262

```

God wants each and every seeker

To be a roaring lion

In his God-serving life.

```

34263

```

In my life, there is only one

Supreme Authority:

God’s Compassion-Eye.

```

34264

```

The spirituality-ladder

Has three rungs:

Newness, oneness and fulness.

```

34265

```

The moment God sees us

Climbing the spirituality-ladder,

He becomes more proud of us

Than we can ever imagine. ```

34266

```

When I claim God

To be my All,

I become an authentic

Representative of God’s Will

Here on earth.

```

34267

```

The wider our consciousness,

The greater the joy and satisfaction

We offer to God.

```

34268

```

When we have fulness,

God’s Joy and Pride increase,

Not only in us, but in Himself as well.

Why?

Because He sees that God the Creator

And God the Creation

Are equally fulfilled.

```

34269

```

O seeker, the past is dust —

It truly is.

It has not given you the realisation you seek.

Therefore, have nothing to do with it! ```

34270

```

God is fulness itself.

How to arrive at fulness?

Only through newness

And oneness. ```

34271

```

True, the Supreme is infinite,

But when we use our third eye,

We see that He is always increasing —

Increasing His Height, increasing His Heart. ```

34272

```

Our human eyes are limited —

They cannot see beyond

Seventy or a hundred metres.

But if we use our heart,

Farther than the farthest we can see.

```

34273

```

Unless and until we establish fulness

In our entire being,

We cannot become full-fledged players

In God’s Cosmic Game. ```

34274

```

God’s Victory-Chariot beckons

Only those who want to be

Hero-warriors.

```

34275

```

May my life live

On hope-rainbows. ```

34276

```

Amusement,

If it is innocent,

Helps our aspiration-course.

```

34277

```

Faith is always pure

And crystal clear. ```

34278

```

I find peace and bliss

Only in my Master’s

Silence-eye.

```

34279

```

A host of angels

Are extremely proud of

My God-surrender-life.

```

34280

```

We must outlast

Our unhealthy

Past experiences.

```

34281

```

A corruption-mind knows

What life-volcano-eruption is. ```

34282

```

I pray for hours

Every day

To increase my God-devotion.

```

34283

```

Gratitude compels

My heart

To look Above.

```

34284

```

Even the faintest whispers

From my soul

My gratitude-heart can hear.

```

34285

```

My Lord,

When You lose and I win,

My heart immediately breaks.

```

34286

```

Alas,

The will of my heart

Is stumbling and crumbling.

```

34287

```

Patience is indispensable

In our God-longing life. ```

34288

```

Alas, will I ever be able

To see

A fear-free world?

```

34289

```

Compassion born in Heaven

Is trying to illumine

The world.

```

34290

```

Never, never revoke

Your God-manifestation-desire. ```

34291

```

The mind-power I had

Did not satisfy me.

What I need is heart-power

To fulfil me. ```

34292

```

Never allow

Your receptivity-heart

To forget all your sweet memories

Of God. ```

34293

```

My aspiration-mountain

And my Lord’s Compassion-Fountain

Live side by side.

```

34294

```

My Lord, You can hide

From my eyes,

But You cannot hide

From my heart. ```

34295

```

Even my resisting mind

Cannot ignore

God’s beckoning Hands.

```

34296

```

If I am on God’s side,

Then I shall never take suffering

As suffering.

```

34297

```

For me,

God’s Heart is the Way

And God’s Eye is the Destination.

```

34298

```

The mind destroys.

The heart immediately reveals. ```

34299

```

God-satisfaction

In God’s own Way

Is my heart’s pinnacle-dream.

```

34300

```

God does not mind my incapacity.

He cares only for

My dedication-sincerity.

```

34301

```

A self-giving life

Is God’s true pride. ```

34302

```

Our devotion-heart

Is only

For our Lord Supreme

To choose. ```

34303

```

Unwillingness

Is the death blow

To our spiritual life.

```

34304

```

Everything will go well

In our life

If we can constantly remember

God’s Name. ```

34305

```

I must come to God’s Heart-Home

Not only soulfully

But also self-givingly.

```

34306

```

To strengthen

Your God-aspiring heart,

Increase your faith in God.

```

34307

```

The doubting mind

Is bound to lag behind. ```

34308

```

I am determined to speak to God

At least once

In this incarnation.

```

34309

```

Keep your aspiration-flame burning

All the time.

Your worldly desires

Will be doomed to nothingness. ```

34310

```

I must pray and meditate

Most soulfully

If I want to be a chosen instrument

Of my Lord Supreme. ```

34311

```

I am so happy

That I am not caught

By worldly desires.

```

34312

```

Be absolutely brave.

You will not find yourself any longer

On the shores of ignorance-sea.

```

34313

```

God’s Compassion-Eye

Is the Lord

Of my heart-tears.

```

34314

```

We must honour

Our life-commitments

So that we can please God

In His own Way. ```

34315

```

I keep my inner eye

Wide open

To watch my Lord’s

Inner Activities. ```

34316

```

Do not forget to receive Blessings

From God’s Feet

At least once a day.

```

34317

```

Compassion has to rain from Above

If we want to be blessed

With immeasurable progress-delight.

```

34318

```

The mind-desires

God does not fulfil,

For our own inner progress.

```

34319

```

An extreme inner hunger

Expedites

Our Godward journey.

```

34320

```

God-obedience-seekers

Are God’s

Most favourite instruments.

```

34321

```

God loves to possess

My devotion-heart

Most proudly.

```

34322

```

God loves to claim

My surrender-life

As His own, very own.

```

34323

```

Each divine thought

Of my heart

Radiates in and through

My entire life. ```

34324

```

Obedience must start

Here and now,

And not elsewhere

Or some other time. ```

34325

```

The supreme happiness

In my life

Is when my Master gives me

A most powerful smile. ```

34326

```

A devotion-heart-seeker

Is all eagerness

To please his Master

Twenty-four hours a day. ```

34327

```

May my heart-river run

Murmuring

To the ocean of infinite bliss.

```

34328

```

My Lord,

I miss Your Heart

Very badly.

“My child,

I need your heart

Constantly.” ```

34329

```

The mind’s

Desire-eagerness

Is truly deplorable.

```

34330

```

When silence descends upon me,

I become hungry

Only for You, my Lord.

```

34331

```

One thought can give us

Either the taste of Heaven

Or the taste of hell.

```

34332

```

One self-giving act

Immediately brings God

Closer to me.

```

34333

```

I need many, many divine qualities,

But I need a oneness-heart

More than anything else.

```

34334

```

My Lord, You have come to me

Quite unexpectedly!

You have sprung a real surprise

On me. ```

34335

```

My Lord,

When I see Your Vision-Eye,

My entire being swims

In the sea of delight. ```

34336

```

Dive deep within.

You are bound to experience

A bliss-fountain.

```

34337

```

My Lord,

Will I ever be strong enough

To force my head

To be under Your Feet

All the time?

```

34338

```

I deeply enjoy watching

The helpless

And

The Helper. ```

34339

```

To me, the best time to meditate

Is when all the morning stars

Soulfully sing together.

```

34340

```

My Lord asks me

Not to be the companion

Of the doubting mind.

```

34341

```

Sound teaches me

How to accept the challenge

Of the ruthless world.

```

34342

```

Silence teaches me

How to love the world

And become the world.

```

34343

```

We are hungry

For the world

To surrender to us.

```

34344

```

Alas, when will we have

The capacity

To raise the world-consciousness?

```

34345

```

God knows His Blessing

Is successful

When He sees

A throbbing heart. ```

34346

```

To our greatest joy,

The seekers on God’s side

Are infinitely more in number

Than the undivine forces

Of ignorance-night.

```

34347

```

We must value

Time and speed

If we really want to succeed

In life. ```

34348

```

We must offer our forgiveness-smiles

And forgiveness-embraces

To turn this world

Into Heaven. ```

34349

```

As God blesses the morning sun,

Even so,

He blesses my morning heart

At the same time. ```

34350

```

Temptation-thief

We must catch

And offer our justice-light.

```

34351

```

The more we are hungry

For God’s Life,

The happier we make God.

```

34352

```

Without inner strength,

Nobody can rely on God

Constantly.

```

34353

```

We must break

All our earth-bound shackles.

Only then shall we be able

To receive

The highest Blessings from Above.

```

34354

```

Those who consciously seek

God’s Blessings and Guidance

Are, indeed,

Very fortunate human beings. ```

34355

```

Responsibility is opportunity.

Opportunity is halfway

To success-life and progress-heart.

```

34356

```

Go forward,

Not with your doubting mind

But with your aspiring heart.

```

34357

```

Our heart can hold

Divinity’s Light

In abundant measure.

```

34358

```

Take yesterday

As centuries long past.

With new hope and new promise,

Embark today

On the God-realisation-journey.

```

34359

```

If our prayers

Are flooded with sincerity and faith,

Then God and His Heart

Cannot remain a far cry. ```

34360

```

Compassion-Ocean

Always blesses

The real God-seekers

And God-lovers. ```

34361

```

When you pray to God,

The Father in God

Becomes very happy.

```

34362

```

When you meditate on God,

The Friend in God

Becomes very happy.

```

34363

```

God shows me

What He eternally is:

His Compassion-Eye.

```

34364

```

I show God

What I truly want to be:

A constant gratitude-heart-tear.

```

34365

```

I call it my devotion-heart;

God calls the same thing

His Affection-Light.

```

34366

```

God repeatedly asks me

Not to think of my years

Of prayer-meditation-neglect.

```

34367

```

Lo and behold,

My aspiration-heart

And my dedication-life

Are no longer entangled

By disturbing thoughts.

```

34368

```

To have a profound meditation,

I must go far beyond the boundaries

Of my mind.

```

34369

```

God’s Heart-Elevator

Can take as many seekers

As it wants to.

```

34370

```

My Lord happily and proudly

Heaps Blessings

Upon my self-giving heart.

```

34371

```

Slowly and steadily

Aspiration awakens

Our hearts.

```

34372

```

Happily and self-givingly

We bring God the Creator

And God the Creation

To us. ```

34373

```

Aspiration and dedication-escalators

May go down

At times.

```

34374

```

The unconditional God-surrender-elevator

Never goes down,

Not even for a brief moment.

```

34375

```

Indifference

Is a dangerous blow

To our God-search-journey.

```

34376

```

Each time God smiles at me,

I get the experience

Of breathtaking Beauty.

```

34377

```

Light shines bright,

Very bright,

On my dream-moon-beauty-life.

```

34378

```

The heart has many, many

Peace-friends.

The poor mind does not have

A single peace-friend! ```

34379

```

Each seeker must hoist

God’s Victory-Banner. ```

34380

```

A moment of peace

Gives me

Infinity’s bliss.

```

34381

```

God does not want man

To prove

But to improve.

```

34382

```

God’s Heart devours equally

Our heart’s gratitude-tears

And

Our mind’s ingratitude-frowns. ```

34383

```

Every day

I prepare myself

For my God-obedience-examinations.

```

34384

```

Human progress,

In general,

Is shockingly slow.

```

34385

```

I have smashed asunder

My mind-made problem-chains. ```

34386

```

Devotion is sweetness;

Devotion is oneness;

Devotion is fulness;

Devotion is God’s immediate Choice;

Devotion is my God-preparation.

```

34387

```

May my heart

Be a beautiful

And ever-climbing star.

```

34388

```

We cannot alter destiny

Unless there is a most powerful

Divine Intervention.

```

34389

```

God gives me a blessingful Ride

Only when He sees

That my life-breath

Is only for Him. ```

34390

```

A disobedience-mind

Never believes in

Severe punishment.

```

34391

```

The mind invariably

Tries to stop

Our Summit-Height’s ascent.

```

34392

```

When I dream God-dreams,

God’s Pride knows

No bounds.

```

34393

```

There was a time

When I loved my desire-life,

But now, at every moment,

I disdain it. ```

34394

```

The mind

Dearly loves

Revolution-fire.

```

34395

```

The heart

Sleeplessly loves

Evolution-flames.

```

34396

```

Anything that is pure,

Anything that is self-giving

Has come down directly

From God’s highest Abode. ```

34397

```

Surprise the mind

By transcending it. ```

34398

```

The wisdom-light of the soul

Can never be measured

By anybody on earth.

```

34399

```

Self-transcendence

Is the only subject

That both God and man

Study together. ```

34400

```

If you want God to reward you,

Then become a sleepless God-seeker

And God-lover.

```

34401

```

My Lord Supreme wants

Each and every human being

To be original.

```

34402

```

If my mind can have

An iron determination

And my heart can have

A will of steel,

Then there is nothing

That I cannot accomplish. ```

34403

```

God asks the seekers

To transform

And not to reform the world.

```

34404

```

We can climb up

God’s Satisfaction-Peak

If we believe in God’s Compassion-Eye

Wholeheartedly. ```

34405

```

If our prayer is sincere,

Then God blesses us

With an inspiration-sky

And an aspiration-sun. ```

34406

```

Alas, I do not know

When I shall be able

To bring my mind

Under my perfect control. ```

34407

```

My sincerity-purity-life

Is bringing God

Closer to me.

```

34408

```

My Lord asks me

If I am ready.

I tell Him:

“I am all ready,

Waiting for Your Command.”

```

34409

```

We must practise

A few hours each day

Controlling our endless thoughts.

```

34410

```

Every prayer-moment

Is

Of tremendous importance.

```

34411

```

Man’s number one problem:

His heart does not have faith

In God.

```

34412

```

May my life-tree

Never produce

Imperfection-fruits.

```

34413

```

My aspiration-heart knows

No faith-boundaries. ```

34414

```

May our love of God

Every day blossom

More beautifully.

```

34415

```

Progress is in our actions

And not in

Our wishful thinking.

```

34416

```

My Lord and I

Always converse

Out of the fulness of our hearts.

```

34417

```

My Lord Supreme wants me to be

Extremely rich

In my inner wealth.

```

34418

```

Where do I live?

I live between

A smiling sunrise

And a weeping sunset. ```

34419

```

My Lord uses

His Justice-Light

As His last Resort.

```

34420

```

A sunlit heart

Accepts no failure. ```

34421

```

A self-giving heart is blessed

With a short-cut

To God’s Heart-Home.

```

34422

```

A prayer-life

Is, indeed,

A mind-tamer.

```

34423

```

God tells me

That He does not need

My permission

To direct my mind’s show. ```

34424

```

My Lord has tremendously

Helped me

To wave a final good-bye

To my torturing and tortuous mind. ```

34425

```

God does not mind

If I hide my face,

But God does mind

If ever I hide my heart. ```

34426

```

My Lord asks my soul

To introduce me

To the world at large.

```

34427

```

Heaven is inside

My weeping heart

And nowhere else.

```

34428

```

God pays utmost attention

When the mind sings

The salvation-song.

```

34429

```

If we have readiness, willingness

And eagerness,

Then we do not need anything else

To make the fastest progress

In the spiritual life.

```

34430

```

I pray to God

To take me as a gardener

In His Heart-Garden.

```

34431

```

I launch my progress-life-boat

Only after I have received

Tremendous Compassion-Light

From our Lord Supreme. ```

34432

```

When we are sincere,

God blesses us. ```

34433

```

Each time I pray to God,

He adds more beauty

And more fragrance

To my heart-home. ```

34434

```

My soul wants my life

To be

A rainbow-sunrise-smile.

```

34435

```

When we bow

To the Supreme in us,

Not only do we melt His Heart,

But also we give Him

A new hope and a new promise.

```

34436

```

My desire-life

Believes in impossibility,

But not my aspiration-heart.

```

34437

```

My heart-smile

Is available

In every heart.

```

34438

```

At times God entrusts us

With divine freedom

For our personal use.

```

34439

```

Infinity invites the finite

To come and play

With it.

```

34440

```

My Lord loves to hear

All my secrets. ```

34441

```

God never attends

Any criticism-party. ```

34442

```

My soul’s beauty-smile

Thrills my heart. ```

34443

```

God’s Heart-Melody

Only my soul can hear. ```

34444

```

In God’s Heart-Eye

Nobody is an outsider. ```

34445

```

I do not believe in

Desire-life-promises. ```

34446

```

I ask my insecurity

To leave me

Since I am no longer

Interested in it. ```

34447

```

Alas, how we waste

Our precious time

In the company of

Jealousy and criticism. ```

34448

```

To my greatest joy,

My Lord has transformed my life

Beyond my recognition.

```

34449

```

The mind’s

God-fulfilment-promises

Appear

Only to disappear. ```

34450

```

My heart longs to explore

Every inch

Of God’s Forgiveness-Heart.

```

34451

```

I must not waste

Even a single breath

On world-criticism.

```

34452

```

The mind will never know

What God-surrender-bliss is. ```

34453

```

My Lord makes all the choices

For me

To show me how affectionate

He is to me. ```

34454

```

Tomorrow’s golden secrets

Are already implanted

In today’s heart.

```

34455

```

My God-gratitude-heart

Makes everything sweet

In my life.

```

34456

```

In my case,

God’s Compassion

Is the only thing reliable.

```

34457

```

Aspiration and dedication

Can be doubled

If our heart remains

An ever-climbing God-cry. ```

34458

```

When my Lord is pleased with me,

He tells me what I actually need,

And also when and where.

```

34459

```

No serious mistakes

Should be repeated. ```

34460

```

From the beginning to the end

I love only one thing:

The repetition of God’s Name.

```

34461

```

Disobedience leads us

To distractions,

Inner and outer.

```

34462

```

The heart’s soundless sound

Is too loud

For the mind.

```

34463

```

God

The Promise-Maker

Never fails.

```

34464

```

My heart

Does everything

For me.

```

34465

```

My mind

Gives me excuse after excuse

Why it cannot do anything

For me. ```

34466

```

My Lord most lovingly

And most proudly preserves

All my tiny secrets.

```

34467

```

To know a theory is good,

But to practise it

Is infinitely better.

```

34468

```

A sincere seeker

Is endowed with

Astounding possibilities.

```

34469

```

This morning

I said my final farewell

To my doubt-mind

And hesitation-heart. ```

34470

```

If I can forgive others

For my undeserved torture,

Then I am destined to do something

Extremely great and good

For God and for mankind.

```

34471

```

Let your conscience

Be your judge,

Not your mind.

```

34472

```

When you meditate

Soulfully and self-givingly

In your heart,

Nothing is in vain. ```

34473

```

Gratitude-heart-seekers

Are made

By God Himself.

```

34474

```

The mind does not wait

To hear God singing. ```

34475

```

A rainbow-heart-beauty

Comes down

From a very high plane

Of consciousness. ```

34476

```

Dissatisfaction

Is the number-one enemy

Of an aspiration-heart.

```

34477

```

Each heart

Is a God-miracle,

Indeed.

```

34478

```

My fettered mind,

You are the cause

Of all my sufferings.

```

34479

```

I am a God-worshipping petal

From my blossoming

Silence-heart-flower.

```

34480

```

Hurry up!

Delay not in your God-search. ```

34481

```

My soul inundates my heart

With a newness and vastness-smile. ```

34482

```

I breathe in

The celestial fragrance

Of the morning.

```

34483

```

God asks me every day

To bask

In His Compassion-Sunshine.

```

34484

```

Enthusiasm breathes in

The fragrance

Of God’s Heart-Garden.

```

34485

```

My morning begins

With my purity-heart. ```

34486

```

I must discard my mind’s

Doubt-suspicion-frustration-toys. ```

34487

```

God’s Compassion-Songs

Never grow old. ```

34488

```

My God-devotion-stories

Have expedited my spiritual journey

Considerably.

```

34489

```

The human life

Does not want to admit

That it is all weakness.

```

34490

```

Each thought

Is a miniature world

Within.

```

34491

```

Every morning

God invites me to walk with Him

In His own Heart-Garden

Of Peace and Bliss. ```

34492

```

My soul is teaching me

How to return

To my heart-temple.

```

34493

```

Light does not work

Against darkness.

Light works for the transformation

Of darkness. ```

34494

```

At the end of our journey

We all return

To our Cosmic Home.

```

34495

```

My heart-river carries always

My life-experiences

To God.

```

34496

```

When desire wants to feed me,

I immediately reject

The invitation.

```

34497

```

When you live

In the heart of silence,

Impossibility does not exist.

```

34498

```

Challenges awaken

The sleeping power

Within us.

```

34499

```

Our many questions about God

Usually come from our mind

And not from our heart.

```

34500

```

When I have

A sincerity-flooded heart,

God can easily be found.

```

34501

```

Earth

Wants to hurt my heart.

Heaven

Wants to protect me. ```

34502

```

The ocean-vast God-realisation

You can have

If your surrender

Is utterly complete. ```

34503

```

Be careful!

Your hasty judgements

Can entirely ruin your life.

```

34504

```

My mind, stop crying!

My mind, stop talking!

The time has come for you

Only to listen. ```

34505

```

I must be pleased with myself,

And remain pleased with myself,

All the time.

```

34506

```

I shall keep

My prayer-life-candle

All the time burning.

```

34507

```

All dreams are beautiful,

Especially the moonlit dreams. ```

34508

```

Where do I live?

I live in between

My Lord’s Forgiveness-Heart

And Compassion-Eye. ```

34509

```

The very nature of prayer

Is to rise

High, higher, highest.

```

34510

```

In the God-realisation-race,

Although it is an ultramarathon,

The completely surrendered seeker

Can sprint

From the start to the very end.

```

34511

```

For me

There is only one way:

Up.

```

34512

```

God definitely needs my invitation

To come down and work

In and through me.

```

34513

```

I am desperately trying

To have

A God-centred heart and life.

```

34514

```

God’s Compassion-Eye

And my affection-heart

Are always found together.

```

34515

```

Alas, the human in us

Is revolving,

And not evolving.

```

34516

```

O my pride,

I am praying to God

To give you

A shorter than the shortest life. ```

34517

```

I am so sad to have

So many God-prayer-delay-days. ```

34518

```

We must be very careful of

Our hidden weaknesses. ```

34519

```

My self-confidence and God-reliance

Are expediting

My absolute God-oneness.

```

34520

```

I am always hungry for

A God-oneness-moment. ```

34521

```

God is so kind to me:

He has fed my self-confidence

And

He has increased my God-reliance. ```

34522

```

God’s Warning I take

As God’s infinite

Compassion-Blessing-Light.

```

34523

```

I shall not retire

Until I expire. ```

34524

```

In the inner world,

Surrender

Is man’s immediate progress.

```

34525

```

When I am on God’s side,

My success is inevitable. ```

34526

```

Some seekers bribe their mind

To take their thoughts away. ```

34527

```

In the morning

God asks my mind

To run towards Him.

```

34528

```

In the evening

God asks my heart

To walk with Him.

```

34529

```

To achieve something great,

We must discipline our lives

In the immediacy of today.

```

34530

```

Let us be humble,

For our humility expedites

Our Godward journey.

```

34531

```

Our heart’s tears

And our soul’s smiles

Have the capacity

To fully harmonise our lives. ```

34532

```

The voice of silence

Can stop

The noise of sound.

```

34533

```

My disobedience-mind,

Do you not think that one of these days

You will be prosecuted

By the divine forces? ```

34534

```

I am safe and secure

Only inside my prayer-life. ```

34535

```

I am perfect

Only in God’s Eye. ```

34536

```

The mind

Does not delete its mistakes —

It only repeats its mistakes.

```

34537

```

For the rest of my life

I shall always please my Lord

Unconditionally.

```

34538

```

My selflessness-life

Is melting God’s Heart

Day by day.

```

34539

```

A soulful seeker

Is inundated

With God’s Compassion

And Affection. ```

34540

```

God wants me

To illumine

My cluttered mind.

```

34541

```

God wants me

To take very special care

Of my heart.

```

34542

```

When I study all the scriptures,

My mind takes pride

And my heart becomes humble.

```

34543

```

When we express our kindness

To the world at large,

God’s Affection for us

And our gratitude to God

Can forever shine

In our heart-sky. ```

34544

```

Each soul, each heart

And each life

Has something very special

To offer

For the betterment of humanity.

```

34545

```

I marvel

At the beauty

Of my heart-sky.

```

34546

```

No matter how hard I try,

Insecurity refuses

To leave me alone.

```

34547

```

Self-offering seekers

Are very special

To God’s Heart.

```

34548

```

May my gratitude-heart-flowers

Never fade. ```

34549

```

My streaming heart-tears

Expedite

The Hour of God.

```

34550

```

This world of ours

Will never be able

To fathom

Our Lord’s Compassion-Sea. ```

34551

```

If we study spirituality

As our only subject,

Then God will be highly pleased

With us. ```

34552

```

The voice of silence

Can at any time speak

To the Absolute Lord Supreme.

```

34553

```

All I want

Is to be in God’s Eye,

And nowhere else.

```

34554

```

I am hungry, always hungry,

For God’s

Compassion-Eye-Descent.

```

34555

```

Accept the challenges —

They may one day transform

Your life.

```

34556

```

If you give up your insecurity-life,

Your soul will heave

A sigh of relief.

```

34557

```

The temptation-room has to be kept

Under lock and key

All the time.

```

34558

```

The self-centred seekers

Cause serious problems

For God.

```

34559

```

Either you conquer despair

Or despair will conquer you. ```

34560

```

From my soul

I am learning

Angel-melodies.

```

34561

```

My devotion-heart

Will never know

What God-separation is.

```

34562

```

My God-surrender-life

Has to navigate

My Godward journey.

```

34563

```

If you continue disobeying God,

Then one day your life

Will be shaken to the core.

```

34564

```

Do your utmost

To fulfil

Your God-oneness-dream.

```

34565

```

Spirituality

Is a God-commitment-reality,

And not a ‘not committed’ attitude.

```

34566

```

Before long

My God-promise-fulfilment

Will take place.

```

34567

```

Today’s tiny steps

Will help you

To take giant steps

Tomorrow. ```

34568

```

Silence your

God-disobedience-vital —

The sooner, the better!

```

34569

```

God has chosen me to follow Him

At every moment.

Therefore, I must not surrender

To worries and anxieties. ```

34570

```

God’s very Touch

Has illumined every cell

Of my body.

```

34571

```

God has blessed me

With His outstretched Hands. ```

34572

```

My mind wants to remain

A secret God-admirer. ```

34573

```

My Lord wants me to be

A secret God-lover

And God-server.

```

34574

```

Each soul has

An ever-God-longing life. ```

34575

```

God has blessed me

With a God-thirsty mind

And

With a God-hungry heart. ```

34576

```

My heart knows how to meditate.

My mind does not know —

It just pretends.

```

34577

```

My devotion

Is

My God-fulfilment-promise.

```

34578

```

My Lord asks me

If I have nothing better to do

Than to mix with ignorance

All the time. ```

34579

```

My God-acceptance

And

My God-obedience

Are two angels in my life. ```

34580

```

My heart and my Lord’s Heart

Share one single Chariot

To the Unknowable.

```

34581

```

Meditation will liberate

Each and every human being

From bondage-night.

```

34582

```

The world needs

Inspiration for the mind

And

Aspiration for the heart. ```

34583

```

Once we accept spirituality,

We cannot separate

God the Creator

From God the Creation. ```

34584

```

O torturing and tortured mind,

Do invoke God to bless you

And illumine you.

```

34585

```

Poise is my dearest friend

Among all my inner friends. ```

34586

```

God-approval

Is absolutely necessary

Before we undertake anything.

```

34587

```

I do not need to climb up

The greatness-summit-mountain.

I want my life to be

A sleepless God-fountain. ```

34588

```

Those who have

Inborn faith in God

Are definitely

Choice instruments of God. ```

34589

```

Heaven welcomes us

At least ten times a day,

But, alas, we do not accept

The Invitation from God. ```

34590

```

My Lord, do give me

A sorrow-tear-heart

So that I can embody Your Light

And reveal it everywhere. ```

34591

```

This morning

God gave me a great surprise

By telling me

That I am a chosen member

Of His Inner Family.

```

34592

```

Insecurity is so stubborn —

It does not want to budge

An inch.

```

34593

```

If I cannot rise above

Disappointment,

How can I ever get

Enlightenment? ```

34594

```

My joy knew no bounds

When I wanted to create a painting

For my Lord Supreme.

```

34595

```

A life empty of hope

Is worse than useless. ```

34596

```

My Lord Supreme,

Do give us Wisdom-Light.

How long can we fool ourselves

By pretending to be

The knower of our lives?

```

34597

```

Be not a seeker

In name.

Be a seeker

In action. ```

34598

```

Never be late in anything

When your Master is involved. ```

34599

```

Before we accepted spirituality,

We made friends with fear,

Doubt, anxieties and worries —

And now, how hard it is

To discontinue our friendship

With them! ```

34600

```

We make God extremely happy

By buying a one-way ticket

To His Heart-Home.

```

34601

```

To tell the truth,

Each God-realisation-road

Is exceedingly difficult.

```

34602

```

If you are deeply involved

In ordinary life,

Then how can the spiritual life —

The conscious God-awareness-life —

Be present?

```

34603

```

Spirituality-pretenders

Are here, there, everywhere. ```

34604

```

If you want to please God,

Then give Him what you have

And what you are

Immediately. ```

34605

```

May my life be

A most soulful and powerful

God-gratitude-wave.

```

34606

```

I must find

Inside my heart

The breath of ambrosia.

```

34607

```

A clutter-mind is, alas,

What I now have and am. ```

34608

```

I have studied many scriptures,

But, alas, satisfaction

Is still a very far cry.

```

34609

```

I must always find myself

Swimming in the sea

Of God-oneness-heart.

```

34610

```

A soulful seeker

Can easily be known

By his purity-heart

And cheerful face. ```

34611

```

You must try to please

Your Beloved Lord Supreme

On the strength of

Your sleepless and breathless

Self-offering.

```

34612

```

A life without hope

And without promise

Is nothing short of death.

```

34613

```

First we have to see the Goal.

Then we must nurture the Goal

Every day without fail.

```

34614

```

May my life see the Truth,

Feel the Truth

And become the Truth,

Which is far beyond the reach

Of the mind.

```

34615

```

I must get back

My most intimate

And most powerful friend:

Enthusiasm. ```

34616

```

I must be brave to face

Not only a specific problem,

But all the problems

That take away my joy. ```

34617

```

My love of God

Has to be renewed

Every day, every hour,

Every minute, every second. ```

34618

```

Today my name is excitement,

For my Lord Supreme will be arriving

At any moment

To visit me in my heart-home. ```

34619

```

We enter into

The land of nowhere

When we consciously forget God.

```

34620

```

A God-realisation-life

Has no expiration date. ```

34621

```

I am trying by all means,

In every possible way,

To arrive at the Feet

Of my Lord Beloved Supreme. ```

34622

```

God-adoration

Is the only choice

Of my devotion-heart.

```

34623

```

At every moment

We must sincerely and self-givingly

Remain true

To our own heart-existence. ```

34624

```

My Lord expects from me

Three most significant presents

On this special occasion:

A willingness-mind,

An eagerness-heart,

A devotedness-life. ```

34625

```

Whatever God gives me

My heart immediately accepts

With boundless joy

And boundless gratitude. ```

34626

```

I need to climb

The summit-height of spirituality

In this lifetime.

```

34627

```

We must lighten our outer life

And brighten our inner life

To please our Lord Supreme

In His own Way. ```

34628

```

At every moment

God is expecting something good,

And not great,

From you. ```

34629

```

May the smiles of my heart

Immediately disarm

All my mind-resistance.

```

34630

```

The mind does not want to know

That it has the capacity

To love God

With utmost sincerity. ```

34631

```

I came into the world

Only for one thing:

God-satisfaction

In God’s own Way. ```

34632

```

God-obedience I start

With my breath,

And then I continue

With my heart, mind, vital and body.

This is absolutely the most perfect way

To obey

My Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

34633

```

The dissatisfaction-disease

Is not incurable. ```

34634

```

At long last

I have started paying

Wholehearted attention

To the Will of my Lord Supreme. ```

34635

```

Complete surrender

Means

Unobstructed inner progress.

```

34636

```

I pray to God

To bring all the worlds together

And establish harmony among them.

```

34637

```

It is never too late

To transform one’s nature. ```

34638

```

When we give up praying and meditating,

We are quite often disillusioned

With our own lives.

```

34639

```

Each soulful smile

Is a life-changing power. ```

34640

```

This time

My Lord is coming to me

To transform not only my outer life,

But also my inner life. ```

34641

```

Anything that Truth has

And is

Is imperishable.

```

34642

```

Silence-songs

Bring God closer

To us.

```

34643

```

Hesitation

Is

Our golden opportunity-destroyer.

```

34644

```

There are a great many ideas

And ways

We have not yet tried

To please God. ```

34645

```

This moment

I live in the highest hope;

Next moment

I live in the darkest fear. ```

34646

```

My Lord,

I beg of You to bless me

With just a few glimpses of bliss.

```

34647

```

Patience has the capacity

To give us

A totally new life.

```

34648

```

The Unknowable

Is within us,

And nowhere else.

```

34649

```

The child divine within us

Has to be awakened

To give us immense joy.

```

34650

```

I listen only to

My God-knowing

Soul-messages.

```

34651

```

When you sing only for God,

You do not need a singing voice

But only a surrendering life

To please Him. ```

34652

```

Do not think

Of perfecting others

While your life is

Imperfection incarnate. ```

34653

```

If you do not follow

Your Master’s advice,

You will find your life

In the land of nowhere. ```

34654

```

Some seekers

Make tremendous progress

Only when they are in

The physical presence

Of their Master.

```

34655

```

Forget your opinions,

At least for a day.

You will see how much peace

Can descend upon you. ```

34656

```

There may not be another tomorrow.

Therefore, do everything good and divine

Here and now.

```

34657

```

God does notice my absence,

But He forgives me

Out of His infinite Compassion.

```

34658

```

Be your true self.

Only then can God perform miracles

In and through you.

```

34659

```

When I dive deep within,

I clearly see that every human being

Is unique.

```

34660

```

If you do not give yourself time

To do the right thing

And be the right person,

Then who can and who will? ```

34661

```

I have offered my heart

One hundred per cent

To fulfil my Lord’s Wish

Here on earth. ```

34662

```

I must practise what I preach.

This is the only way

I can make my Lord

Divinely and supremely happy. ```

34663

```

I must bend my proud head

And touch the dust of humanity’s feet

To become a choice instrument

Of God. ```

34664

```

No more mind-performances.

From now on my life will be

Either soul-performances

Or heart-performances. ```

34665

```

I love

The sweet and sacred voice

Of silence.

```

34666

```

If I am all love

For God,

Then my miseries

Are bound to die. ```

34667

```

To please God,

I just need

A shorter than the shortest

Heart-song. ```

34668

```

The very nature of the ego

Is to make others’ lives

Insecure and meaningless.

```

34669

```

We must realise that no suffering

Can have a permanent room

In our heart-home.

```

34670

```

God’s Pride

Treasures

Our aspiration-flames.

```

34671

```

We find God

Not in our grandiose achievements,

But in our pure devotion.

```

34672

```

We must make

Our love, devotion and surrender visible

By constantly thinking of

And caring for

Our Master.

```

34673

```

When God asks my soul

How my heart is doing,

My soul’s joy and pride

Know no bounds. ```

34674

```

Self-offering blooms;

Love blossoms. ```

34675

```

We cannot understand God,

But our hearts easily can. ```

34676

```

We love God,

Not because of His Greatness,

Not because of His Goodness,

But because of our mutual oneness. ```

34677

```

All my life’s hopes

Live in a single Smile

Of my Lord Supreme.

```

34678

```

Love the world inwardly;

Serve the world outwardly.

Lo, you have become free.

```

34679

```

God loves me so dearly

When I tell Him millions of things

In silence.

```

34680

```

We must not look back at life.

If we do, we may go back

To the animal kingdom.

```

34681

```

How I wish I could worship

My Lord Supreme

In my heart-temple

Lovingly, devotedly and self-givingly. ```

34682

```

The moment I see

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye

And feel His Forgiveness-Heart,

My heart starts throbbing

With unimaginable joy.

```

34683

```

Self-giving

Is an express train

To our Lord’s Heart-Station.

```

34684

```

We are accountable to God

For all the things

That we do wrong

And for all the good things

That we do not do.

```

34685

```

Delight and God

Are

Complementary realities.

```

34686

```

Heaven descends

When it sees that

The earth-consciousness

Is sincerely trying to ascend. ```

34687

```

This moment

Devotion can be very sweet,

And the next moment

It can be extremely powerful. ```

34688

```

Aspiration is the inner cry

That is regularly fed

By the Compassion-Eye

Of our Lord Supreme. ```

34689

```

Pure is the eye of gratitude,

Sure is the heart of gratitude

And perfect is the breath of gratitude.

```

34690

```

There is no sound on earth

Or in Heaven

That cannot be transformed

By the infinite power of silence. ```

34691

```

The outer beauty

Quite often fails us.

The inner beauty moulds us, shapes us

And guides us

To our God-fulfilment-destination.

```

34692

```

We may forget to pray to God

For some things,

But we must never forget to pray to God

For His constant Protection. ```

34693

```

When death challenges life,

Life says to death:

“I belong to a Realm

Far, far beyond your realm.” ```

34694

```

The larger the receptivity-vessel

Of our heart,

The easier and better for our Lord

To pour divine Light and supreme Delight. ```

34695

```

The outer freedom

Misuses and confuses

Our lives.

```

34696

```

The inner freedom we cannot use;

It is the inner freedom

That uses us

Lovingly and self-givingly. ```

34697

```

Light and darkness

Stay all the time side by side.

It is I who have to choose light

All the time

To please my Lord

And also to fulfil myself. ```

34698

```

There is only one thing we need

In our life

And that is constant God-reliance.

```

34699

```

At every moment

Grace is descending from Above.

Those who are aware of it

Make unimaginable progress

In the spiritual life.

```

34700

```

Each time we receive Forgiveness

From God,

God hopes that we shall consciously live

In His Delight-Kingdom. ```

34701

```

Eventually

The mind will have to follow

The heart.

```

34702

```

The seekers must remain

Always alert

For God’s Life-Transformation-Call.

```

34703

```

We must discard vehemently

All the sad experiences

Of the past.

```

34704

```

No heart was born

Without an iota

Of climbing aspiration.

```

34705

```

Attachment is bad,

But if it turns towards God,

It becomes a sleepless

And breathless aspiration

To realise God.

```

34706

```

Ignorance-night

Has to be conquered,

Either with a smile,

Or with a frown,

Or with an iron rod.

```

34707

```

There shall come a time

When mankind will reach

The Golden Shore

And live there permanently. ```

34708

```

Alas, how often we suffer

From our self-imposed

Sadness-torture.

```

34709

```

Anything that we receive

From silence

Is most precious.

```

34710

```

God gives me unconditionally

What He has: Love.

I must give Him, at least unwillingly,

My obedience. ```

34711

```

The sky-embracing ladder

Everybody has to use

To reach the Highest

For God-realisation. ```

34712

```

No determination-fire,

No God-realisation-tower. ```

34713

```

May my old disagreements

With the world

Die in infamy.

```

34714

```

Enthusiasm

Rightly deserves

To take the lead.

```

34715

```

To renounce expectation

Is to announce God’s supreme Victory

In and through us.

```

34716

```

May every breath of mine

Embody

My gratitude-heart-tears.

```

34717

```

No newness, no soulfulness.

No soulfulness, no oneness.

No oneness, no fulness.

```

34718

```

O my mind,

By this time you should have

Outgrown your desire

For doubt and suspicion. ```

34719

```

One step at a time

Is more than enough

To reach

My God-realisation-shore. ```

34720

```

From our very first day

Until we breathe our last,

We have to feel that God-satisfaction

Is of paramount importance. ```

34721

```

May my aspiration

And dedication

Have no limit.

```

34722

```

Our God-service

Must give us

Incomparable joy.

```

34723

```

Self-centred I was.

God-centred I now am. ```

34724

```

Insecurity

Cleverly hides. ```

34725

```

Confidence

Proudly rides. ```

34726

```

Silence infinite

Means

God-Satisfaction complete.

```

34727

```

Everything will fail us

Save and except

Our God-obedience.

```

34728

```

Prayer-life

Is, indeed,

A hope-bloom.

```

34729

```

Meditation-life

Is blossoming into

A fully opened lotus-heart.

```

34730

```

The mind-power

Quite often attacks. ```

34731

```

The heart-power

Always protects. ```

34732

```

My heart’s inner cries

Are treasured

By God Himself.

```

34733

```

A smiling God

Gives the journey’s start. ```

34734

```

A continuing surrender

Reaches the Goal. ```

34735

```

Divinity chooses

A purity-heart

First and foremost.

```

34736

```

May my heart become

God’s Surrender-Nectar-Fountain. ```

34737

```

My Lord’s Victory-Banner

Brings me

Infinity’s Bliss.

```

34738

```

My inner cries

And God’s outer Smiles

Mix together

And fulfil one another. ```

34739

```

I cherish in the very depths of my heart

Only one desire:

God-Satisfaction in God’s own Way.

```

34740

```

My Lord,

Do turn me into

God’s Satisfaction-hero-strength-bliss.

```

34741

```

I discontinue,

But God continues to love me

And to think of my perfection.

```

34742

```

During meditation

We receive God-oneness-experiences,

And we must preserve them

After the meditation is over. ```

34743

```

A service-life

Is the very beginning

Of a God-oneness-heart.

```

34744

```

No devotion-breath,

No God-oneness-life. ```

34745

```

I live in between

My aspiration-cries

And

My meditation-smiles. ```

34746

```

Each life is a mixture

Of failure-tears

And success-smiles.

```

34747

```

God’s Smile penetrates

Our ignorance-sleep. ```

34748

```

God’s only Plan

Is

World-transformation.

```

34749

```

The inner smiles

And the outer tears

Are complementary

God-longing realities. ```

34750

```

Self-giving

Is the first step.

God-becoming

Is the very last step. ```

34751

```

God does not want to know

My quest-altitude.

He just wants to know

My quest-attitude. ```

34752

```

I have been with you, my mind,

For a long time.

I now want to be alone

With my Lord Supreme. ```

34753

```

My heart was born

For the Lotus-Feet

Of my Lord Supreme.

```

34754

```

The mind is good

For information.

The heart is good

For aspiration. ```

34755

```

Every day

I get a new opportunity

To see a new light

In my heart-sky. ```

34756

```

My mind cares only

For advantage.

My heart cares only

For a God-fulfilling opportunity. ```

34757

```

At long last

I have arrived at the Heart-Door

Of my Lord Supreme.

```

34758

```

An open heart

Can sprinkle God’s Delight

Everywhere.

```

34759

```

Alas, the peace-planet

Has yet to take birth —

Only God knows when and how.

```

34760

```

I have not come into the world

To lead the world

But to mix with the world

For its God-satisfaction-endeavour. ```

34761

```

I am extremely happy to learn

That God is ready to be

The Owner

Of my heart-cries

And my soul-smiles.

```

34762

```

God wants my heart

To examine all the thoughts

That are produced

By my mind. ```

34763

```

My silence-heart

Receives everything immediately

From my Lord Supreme

With boundless gratitude. ```

34764

```

An unconditional surrender

Empty of cheerfulness

Cannot lead us

To our destined Goal. ```

34765

```

My mind is always tired.

My heart is never tired —

It is always eager to receive

More Blessings, more Light

And more Delight

From my Lord Beloved Supreme. ```

34766

```

The soul-beauty of the heart

Must be brought to the fore

To manifest fully

The Light of our Beloved Supreme. ```

34767

```

Happiness increases

Our aspiration-speed,

Dedication-speed

And God-manifestation-speed. ```

34768

```

My Lord, my blossoming heart

Desperately needs

Your tangible Presence.

```

34769

```

When my Lord smiles at me,

My mind is puzzled,

My heart is thrilled

And

My life is fulfilled.

```

34770

```

Every day without fail

I enjoy my Lord’s

Compassion-Shower.

```

34771

```

Today my Lord Supreme,

Out of His infinite Bounty,

Has given me a new heart,

Empty of ignorance-night. ```

34772

```

Alas, how long shall I remain

On earth

Without knowing

Who I really am

And what I really stand for?

```

34773

```

Alas, my stupidity knows no bounds

When I support

My darkness-flooded mind.

```

34774

```

Without peace

There can be no oneness.

Again, without oneness,

There can be no peace.

Therefore, give due value

To peace and oneness. ```

34775

```

I do not need support from the world

For my activities,

As long as I am all the time

On my Lord’s side. ```

34776

```

My meditation-heart

Is

My most powerful protection.

```

34777

```

I dig and dig

Always with a new hope

To find my inner treasure.

```

34778

```

I must not offend myself.

I must not defend myself.

I must only love myself

More and more. ```

34779

```

My Lord does not teach me

What I want to know.

He teaches me only

What He wants me to know. ```

34780

```

The past has to be

Corrected and perfected

Before it enters into

The present. ```

34781

```

The mind has no conviction

About anything —

Even about its own existence.

```

34782

```

The apologies of the mind

God does not accept.

The aspiration-cries of the heart

God readily and proudly accepts. ```

34783

```

I deeply enjoy

The fragrant presence

Of my peace-heart.

```

34784

```

God does not need my gratitude,

But He accepts my gratitude

So that I can feel

I have pleased Him. ```

34785

```

No more self-importance!

It is all God-importance,

Twenty-four hours a day.

```

34786

```

Alas, alas,

Where has my God-obedience gone?

I see it nowhere!

```

34787

```

May my thirst

For self-transcendence

Be endless.

```

34788

```

God’s Approval is needed

Every day

For important things

That you do for Him. ```

34789

```

Lifeless receptivity

Is worse than useless. ```

34790

```

Any advice that I get from the mind

Creates a serious problem

For me.

```

34791

```

Every day

I must raise my consciousness

To a higher height

Without fail. ```

34792

```

I am eagerly looking forward

To my self-doubt-starvation-day. ```

34793

```

A wave of compassion

Powerfully sweeps over

My heart.

```

34794

```

I must not remain any more

A slave to every word

Of my mind.

```

34795

```

I am so proud of

My enthusiasm,

For it knows no fear.

```

34796

```

When I pray most sincerely

And meditate most intensely,

I clearly see and feel

That my entire being

Is flooded with Delight.

```

34797

```

All my dreams

Are rooted

In the soil of a fertile Reality.

```

34798

```

May I always be found

Either praying and meditating

Or crying and weeping for God.

```

34799

```

Only one thing makes me happy

And keeps me happy:

My progress-promise-report

To my Lord Supreme. ```

34800

```

God is extremely pleased with me

Because I prayed to Him

To be extremely sincere with me.

```

34801

```

Since I have accepted

The spiritual life,

I must try to become

A first-class God-seeker,

God-lover and God-server.

```

34802

```

Once he has embarked

On the spiritual life,

Only a first-class fool

Will waste his precious time. ```

34803

```

No darkness

Can forever remain

Unillumined.

```

34804

```

My heart lives on

Unconditional Compassion

From Above,

Every single day. ```

34805

```

We do not have to prove to God

Our sincerity —

He knows what was within us,

What is now, and what we shall have

In the future.

```

34806

```

God does not mind if we disbelieve Him —

His Affection-Compassion —

But He does mind when we lose faith

In ourselves. ```

34807

```

Unless and until we give God the chance

To direct our mind,

We shall not succeed in our spiritual life.

```

34808

```

He who betrays others

Has already betrayed

His God-representative-reality:

His soul. ```

34809

```

God never likes

Our self-destructive thoughts

And feelings.

```

34810

```

When God came to see me,

My mind and I were enjoying

Wild gossip;

Therefore, I failed to meet Him. ```

34811

```

Alas, I take suffering

As a great friend

Helping to expedite my spiritual life —

Indeed, a mistaken belief. ```

34812

```

When I look at the world

With my inner eye,

Everybody is beautiful,

Everybody is perfect,

In his own way.

```

34813

```

I shall never forget the joy that I get

From the beauty and fragrance

Of my God-dreams.

```

34814

```

Love, devotion, surrender —

They can never be a joking matter. ```

34815

```

Laugh and laugh

To your heart’s content —

Ignorance-thief shall disappear.

```

34816

```

There is no difference between

Your Master’s inner guidance

And your Master’s outer presence.

```

34817

```

Devotion-eagerness

And austerity-practice

Can never be the same thing.

```

34818

```

Try to placate God —

You are bound to fail. ```

34819

```

Try to please God —

You are bound to succeed. ```

34820

```

The moment we accept spirituality,

Our life has to become

Very serious.

```

34821

```

Success and progress-seekers

Can easily avail themselves

Of the express elevator:

Devotion. ```

34822

```

Together, my soul, my heart and I

Definitely shall conquer

The ignorance-night of the world.

```

34823

```

Indeed,

Love is readiness. ```

34824

```

Indeed,

Devotion is intensity. ```

34825

```

Indeed,

Surrender is at once

Beauty and fragrance.

```

34826

```

With a heart of sympathy

I make the fastest progress. ```

34827

```

My Lord,

May I not love Your Feet

The way You love my heart?

```

34828

```

The Lord of Heaven

Is waiting

For my eager call.

```

34829

```

Smile, smile, smile!

Happiness will endear you

To both God and man.

```

34830

```

God treasures

Everything that I offer Him

Lovingly and soulfully.

```

34831

```

My life

Has two necessities:

Newness and fulness.

```

34832

```

When I am with Light,

I feel that I have the whole world

At my disposal.

```

34833

```

When I am with Delight,

I feel that I have become

Delight itself.

```

34834

```

Anything that is positive

Is of tremendous help

In our spiritual life.

```

34835

```

I am the one

To disappoint me,

And nobody else.

```

34836

```

My Lord,

Only Your Tears

Have the capacity

To destroy my heart. ```

34837

```

A mind of silence

Is

A first-class God-receptivity.

```

34838

```

Depression-indulgence

Is a very serious crime

In the spiritual life.

```

34839

```

A life of discipline

Is

A God-chosen instrument.

```

34840

```

Each hope-bud

Is of supreme necessity. ```

34841

```

My gratitude-heart-tears

Become

God’s Pride infinite.

```

34842

```

A God-surrender-life

Is

A God-fulfilment-heart.

```

34843

```

My meditation-heart

Enormously enlarges

My life’s receptivity.

```

34844

```

Either ignore or conquer

Your mind’s

Fears and doubts.

```

34845

```

Aspiration can disperse

The clouds from the mind. ```

34846

```

I am sure my lotus-heart

Will bloom and blossom

At God’s choice Hour.

```

34847

```

My outer freedom

Can easily be devoured

By ignorance-night.

```

34848

```

My inner freedom

Is founded upon

God-Assurance.

```

34849

```

My God-devotion

Sooner than the soonest

Brings tears to my heart.

```

34850

```

My God-surrender-life

Does not need

God’s thunderous Applause.

```

34851

```

In the spiritual life

We must give supreme importance

To time and speed.

```

34852

```

If we do not give due value

To forgiveness,

We can never be truly happy.

```

34853

```

Each gratitude-tear of mine

Is extremely precious

To my Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

34854

```

God’s morning Blessing

Keeps me spiritually alive

During the entire day.

```

34855

```

I do not have anything to do

With temptation

And its repeated calls.

```

34856

```

Each God-seeker

Has to take tremendous responsibility

To please God

In God’s own Way. ```

34857

```

Go forward!

Never look backward!

God is calling you with all His Heart.

```

34858

```

Devotion is sweetness

In the heart

And happiness in life.

```

34859

```

If God is really pleased with you,

Only then will He allow you

To play with Him.

```

34860

```

We must have faith

In all our prayers and meditations;

Otherwise, they will be

A useless waste of time. ```

34861

```

Do not blame the mind —

Tame the mind.

You will be supremely happy.

```

34862

```

I must do everything

With my boundless love

For my Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

34863

```

Peace divine,

Peace supreme,

Peace infinite

Is my Eternity’s only choice. ```

34864

```

Mankind is the bloom

And blossom

Of God’s Self-transcending Vision.

```

34865

```

My God-obedience at every moment

Shows me the shortest way

To arrive

At the Destination. ```

34866

```

Alas, years of neglect

Have made my spiritual life

Extremely weak.

But now I am all eagerness

To make the fastest progress

In my spiritual life. ```

34867

```

Every day

I pray to my Lord

To give me the intensity

To think of Him more,

Infinitely more.

```

34868

```

My heart-home

Is the only place

Where God frequently comes

To bless me. ```

34869

```

My meditation must not have

Any time limit.

My meditation has to be always

Beyond the arrest of Time. ```

34870

```

I shall no longer allow

My mind to be entangled

By undivine thoughts.

```

34871

```

I shall no longer allow

My life-escalator to go down.

It will go only up —

High, higher, highest. ```

34872

```

My heart is a climbing cry.

It will continue climbing

Until it reaches the twinkling beauty

Of the evening star. ```

34873

```

May my two human eyes

At every moment

Love and love and love

The celestial Beauty

Of my Lord’s Third Eye.

```

34874

```

My devotion is, indeed,

My God-closeness-happiness. ```

34875

```

My surrender is, indeed,

My God-oneness-delight. ```

34876

```

Every morning and every evening

I pray to God to keep me

Inside His Protection-Heart-Ring.

```

34877

```

Self-offering

Is joy immeasurable. ```

34878

```

I must climb

Without fail

My Lord’s Satisfaction-Mountain.

```

34879

```

Sleeplessly

My life needs joy. ```

34880

```

Breathlessly

My heart needs peace. ```

34881

```

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye

Is the only Pilot

Of my life-boat.

```

34882

```

I do not mind

If I have won or lost,

But my Lord’s Victory

I constantly want. ```

34883

```

Who wants failure-fear?

We all want success-confidence. ```

34884

```

What do I need?

I need a life

Of sleepless God-service.

```

34885

```

What have I destroyed?

I have utterly destroyed

My mind’s pride-monument.

```

34886

```

What I desperately need:

Oneness-heart-tears

And oneness-soul-smiles.

```

34887

```

My Lord, since I cannot satisfy You

With my letters,

Can You not start writing letters

To Yourself? ```

34888

```

I pray to my Lord Supreme

To bless me with eagerness-speed

In everything that I do.

```

34889

```

Every morning,

My Lord Supreme watches

Most compassionately

The blossoming of my lotus-heart,

Petal by petal.

```

34890

```

My Lord, do increase the number

Of my gratitude-heart-tears

Every day, most surprisingly.

```

34891

```

May my life dwell

Between God

And His Power of Love.

```

34892

```

Although the transformation

Of human nature

Is the most difficult task,

I am sure I will be able to achieve it. ```

34893

```

When I meditate deeply,

I clearly see a magnificent glow

Around my heart.

```

34894

```

My Lord Supreme,

This morning, before I awoke,

I clearly heard You whisper:

“My child,

You have so many divine qualities.

Can you not add one more —

Humility?”

```

34895

```

I do not have to worry about my destiny,

Because my destiny-maker

Is my Master himself.

```

34896

```

May my heart’s prayerful

And soulful melody

Change my God-doubting mind

Forever. ```

34897

```

Because I have ample faith

In my Lord Supreme,

I am sure I shall be able to climb up

Absolutely the highest mountain

Of aspiration-height.

```

34898

```

When I love the world

With my Master’s breath

Inside my love,

I conquer the heart

Of each and every human being

On earth. ```

34899

```

To my greatest joy,

This morning my Lord Supreme

Has planted

Many, many, many aspiration-plants

Inside my heart-garden.

```

34900

```

Sweet, sweeter and sweetest —

My life’s streaming gratitude-tears

For my Master-Lord.

```

34901

```

If you do not expose your weaknesses

To your Lord Supreme,

How can you ever become perfect?

```

34902

```

Alas, my stupidity knows no bounds.

I was completely puzzled

By God’s unconditional Love

and Compassion,

Instead of surrendering to Him

Cheerfully, proudly and immediately. ```

34903

```

I must once more keep my heart-door

Wide open to my Lord Supreme

For His Will to be fully manifested

In and through my life. ```

34904

```

Poor mind,

It knows only one thing:

It consciously or unconsciously

Takes pride

In disagreeing with God’s Will.

```

34905

```

My Lord, please, please,

Never allow me to keep,

Consciously or unconsciously,

Any secret from Your Compassion-Eye

And Protection-Feet.

```

34906

```

I shall never allow myself

To be carried away

By my mind’s doubt-flood.

```

34907

```

Surrender-heart-seekers

Are very special to God. ```

34908

```

My aspiring heart

Is the closest associate

Of my all-illumining soul.

```

34909

```

Each devotion-song

Has some special sweetness

In it.

```

34910

```

A life without God

Is nothingness itself. ```

34911

```

May my life

At every moment

Remain untouched

By attachment-darkness. ```

34912

```

I shall cast aside

My previous failure-life

And run towards my golden dawn.

```

34913

```

Where is my heart’s confidence-light,

Where?

I must not surrender any more

To my God-satisfaction-failure-life. ```

34914

```

I need constantly

A heart of aspiration

And a life of dedication

To please my Master Supreme always,

In His own Way.

```

34915

```

Without patience,

Nobody can ever arrive

At his life-goal.

```

34916

```

I have raced against my mind,

And I have defeated it very badly. ```

34917

```

What do I learn from my mind?

Fear and doubt.

What do I learn from my heart?

My love of God

And my complete oneness with God.

```

34918

```

My Lord,

I know You never withdraw from me,

But my mind tortures me at times.

My heart keeps me always safe.

My heart tells me

That You will only love me more and more,

And never withdraw from me.

```

34919

```

Every morning,

Before I open my eyes,

I must catch a drop of Grace

From my Lord Beloved Supreme. ```

34920

```

How can I ever win the inner race

If I do not have Your full Approval

Of my devoted actions?

```

34921

```

If we do not offer our gratitude

To our Lord Supreme

Consciously and sleeplessly,

Our progress will be very, very slow. ```

34922

```

I always listen to my inner voice;

Therefore, my life has

Boundless happiness.

```

34923

```

The heart finds so many ways

To please the Master

And be his choicest instrument.

```

34924

```

Heaven is not behind me.

Heaven is not above me.

Heaven is within me.

```

34925

```

Finally, the heaviness of my mind

Has surrendered completely

To my constant, sleepless oneness

With my Lord Supreme. ```

34926

```

My soul, my heart and my life

Are all first-class passengers

In my Lord’s Train.

```

34927

```

My inner thrill

Is so powerful

When I sing God-songs.

```

34928

```

Do not extol

Your achievements.

It is for God to do so.

```

34929

```

I must keep my aspiration-hunger

All the time,

Here, there and everywhere.

```

34930

```

My heart’s aspiration-dream

Runs on

God’s blessingful Smile.

```

34931

```

God hopes to find

A few extremely sincere

And pure seekers

To manifest His Light

Here on earth.

```

34932

```

My eyes are only for

God’s Compassion-Eye

And

His Forgiveness-Heart. ```

34933

```

God wants me to be

A fearless, sleepless

And selfless climber

To God’s Transcendental Height. ```

34934

```

I must never go back

To my desire-hungry

Mind-forest.

```

34935

```

My aspiration-heart

Sleeplessly spreads God’s Love

Here, there and everywhere.

```

34936

```

My Lord comes to me

Every morning

And leaves behind

His Divinity’s Fragrance-Footsteps. ```

34937

```

My Godward journey

Begins

In the depths of my silence-heart.

```

34938

```

When I aspire most soulfully

And most self-givingly,

I see there is no deadline for me

To realise God. ```

34939

```

I clearly see my Lord Supreme

In my heart’s streaming tears

And beaming smiles.

```

34940

```

I have only one duty

And that duty is

To please God the Creation

At every moment. ```

34941

```

When I talk to God,

God listens to me

Only if I am soulful

And prayerful. ```

34942

```

God wants us to go to Him

With a purity-mind

And gratitude-heart-tears.

```

34943

```

As long as I keep hope flowering

Within my heart,

My Lord will bless me

With newness-encouragement

To arrive at my highest Goal.

```

34944

```

God sends me

His beautiful Smiles

To play with my tearful heart.

```

34945

```

I must put an end

To my endless

Desire-thunderstorms.

```

34946

```

The unwillingness-mind

Ultimately surrenders

To the God-willingness-heart.

```

34947

```

God enjoys the festival-prayers

Of our lives

And the festival-meditations

Of our hearts

Far beyond our imagination.

```

34948

```

While we are on earth,

God repeatedly asks us

To be the servers of Mother Earth,

And not the dreamers of Father Heaven. ```

34949

```

Every morning

My aspiration-heart places

Fresh devotion-petals

Around the Feet of my Lord Supreme. ```

34950

```

My yesterday’s hope

Is transformed

Into confidence today.

```

34951

```

I must destroy

My self-doubt-obstruction-walls. ```

34952

```

As soon as you see God,

The very first thing to do

Is to look at His Feet,

Not at His Eye. ```

34953

```

My mind knows

How to make complaints,

And these complaints

Never, never end. ```

34954

```

Every day, before I get up,

My Lord appears to me

With a Surprise-Smile.

```

34955

```

God does not need

A standing ovation

From mankind.

He only needs

A crying and climbing aspiration

From mankind. ```

34956

```

O my mind, no more frustration.

O my vital, no more depression.

O my body, no more lethargy.

O my heart-aspiration,

More, ever more!

```

34957

```

Unexpected blessings

Give us

The joy of the Unknown.

```

34958

```

May my heart-tears

Be as constant and flowing

As a fountain.

```

34959

```

Sincerity and purity

Are absolutely safe

In my heart of self-giving

To God. ```

34960

```

God asks me

To fan the flame of aspiration.

Alas, I fan the flame of desire

Instead. ```

34961

```

If our faith in mankind is not unshakeable,

Then we cannot do anything really good

For mankind.

```

34962

```

I must try to fly every day

On the wings

Of my God-loving dreams.

```

34963

```

God has done the first thing first:

He has given me

A God-loving heart.

Now, the second and last thing He will do

Is to perfect my nature

Totally. ```

34964

```

I love only my inner cries

And not my outer smiles. ```

34965

```

Life’s perfection-journey

Is

Birthless and deathless.

```

34966

```

If we hesitate,

We will never be able

To create anything

God-satisfying. ```

34967

```

Inside my progress-breath

I see my Lord’s endless Love

And Concern.

```

34968

```

There is a special place for everything,

And my heart is the very special place

For my Lord to live.

```

34969

```

A spiritual Master

Lifts humanity

On his ever-widening heart-wings.

```

34970

```

Both God and I

Live on

Our mutual hopes.

```

34971

```

We beg God for many, many things.

God begs us for only one thing:

A soulful smile.

```

34972

```

Humility is the fastest elevator

To arrive at the topmost floor

Of my Lord Beloved Supreme’s

Heart-Home. ```

34973

```

My Lord’s “No!”

Breaks my heart

Into millions of pieces.

```

34974

```

In Heaven

God asks me to work with Him,

Side by side.

```

34975

```

On earth

God asks me to work for Him,

Only for Him.

```

34976

```

When I worship God,

My gratitude-heart

Joins me.

```

34977

```

When God comes to me

As a guest,

He blesses my head.

```

34978

```

When I go to God

As a guest,

He embraces my heart.

```

34979

```

I love my purity-heart-breath

More than anything else. ```

34980

```

When I think of the loser,

My heart expands. ```

34981

```

When I think of the winner,

My life rejoices. ```

34982

```

I need a childlike heart

To give immense joy

To my Absolute Lord Supreme.

```

34983

```

Slowly and proudly

God descends

Upon my tearful heart.

```

34984

```

All our fears, doubts,

Anxieties and worries

Must crumble

To the ground. ```

34985

```

We imprison our spiritual life

With our constant expectation

Of God’s Smile and God’s Blessings.

```

34986

```

My soul’s golden chariot

Always wins

In the competition with my mind,

Vital and body. ```

34987

```

Only those

Who love God unconditionally

Are chosen by God Himself.

```

34988

```

Those who serve God

Will be amply rewarded. ```

34989

```

My heart lives on

Eternity’s hope-rainbow. ```

34990

```

A soulful smile

Can easily stand against

A doubt-frown.

```

34991

```

God tells me

That I need patience

Very badly.

```

34992

```

My Lord will definitely occupy

The world-judgement-seat —

It is just a matter of time.

```

34993

```

Surrender has

Both power and beauty

To fulfil God’s Will on earth.

```

34994

```

God tells me

That when I call Him,

It has to be done lovingly,

Devotedly and self-givingly. ```

34995

```

There is not a single hour

That I keep aside

To please humanity.

My only goal

Is to please my Lord Supreme

All the time. ```

34996

```

I must be true to my heart

All the time

If I really want to make my Master happy,

Supremely happy. ```

34997

```

May my aspiration-flame

Be as beautiful and as powerful

As the twinkling stars.

```

34998

```

He who has surrendered completely

To God’s Will

Will be given the chance

To hoist God’s Victory-Banner. ```

34999

```

My soul heralds

My Lord’s Victory Supreme

At every moment.

```

35000

```

My Lord,

The Sunshine of Your Smile

Is so beautiful,

And at the same time,

So powerful.

I am entirely engulfed in Your Smile. ```
