Twenty-five Aspiration-Flames

1.1

```

Let us pray to God to grant us the capacity,

Out of His infinite Bounty,

To sleeplessly serve

the peace-aspiring world.

Let us pray to God

To give us the most beautiful face

Of a oneness-world-family.

Let us pray to God

To give us the most powerful heart

Of a oneness-world-home.

```

TAF 1. 3 February 1987↩

2.2

A long twenty-three years ago my Beloved Supreme Absolute brought me to America to be of most soulful service to Him in the West.

He blessed me with His infinite Hope, infinite Inspiration and infinite Aspiration to serve Him in the West.

You are my sweet children.

You are my service-plants.

You will one day become huge banyan trees.

I am not only helping you; I will make you realise the Absolute Supreme and I will manifest Him in and through you at His choice Hour.

You are my choice children.

With you and in you I see the perfection of humanity's heart and life.

Love the Supreme in me infinitely more.

Be devoted to the Supreme in me infinitely more.

Lo, yours will be the sleepless joy and breathless satisfaction.

Yours will be the complete perfection that humanity has been longing for centuries and centuries.

TAF 3. 13 April 1987↩

3.3

```

Peace in the world's oneness-home

Is the supreme fulfilment

Of humanity's

Birthless and deathless promise

To God.

```

TAF 2. 27 April 1987↩

4.4

```

As your spiritual Father,

I am crying and I shall be crying

Inside your minds for Illumination,

Inside your lives for Liberation,

Inside your hearts for Realisation,

Inside your souls for your attainment

Of God's ever-transcending Vision,

Inside your Inner Pilot for His sleepless,

Birthless and deathless Satisfaction

In you and through you.

```

TAF 4. 21 June 1987. Father's Day Message.↩

5.5

```

At last I have pleased my Lord Supreme,

But I wish to please Him more,

Infinitely more.

```

TAF 5. 18 October 1987↩

6.6

```

My Beloved Supreme powerfully loves me.

Therefore, I have His Infinity's Happiness.

My Beloved Supreme compassionately needs me.

Therefore, I am His Immortality's Peace.

```

TAF 6. 18 October 1987↩

7.7

```

I love my Beloved Supreme only,

Not because He has done

So many things for me unconditionally,

But because He is my life's only Hunger,

My heart's only Meal,

My soul's only Satisfaction

And my birthless and deathless

Eternity's All.

```

TAF 7. 18 October 1987↩

8.8

```

My son, the unknowable can be known.

My son, the unknown can be known.

My son, the known can easily

remain unknown.

My son, the knowable can eternally remain

Unknowable.

```

TAF 8. 21 October 1987↩

9.9

```

My Lord Beloved Supreme,

It is now so clear to me that

You do not care for me.

My Lord, You do not care for me.

Is it because my mind is insincere?

Is it because my heart is impure?

Is it because I criticise You

Inwardly and outwardly every day?

Or are there some other reasons

Why You do not care for me?

"My child, if it is true that

I do not care for you,

Then it is not because of

your mind's insincerity,

Not because of your heart's impurity,

Not because of your cruel criticism of Me,

But because you dare to live

And do succeed in living

Without My Heart's Compassion,

Love, Blessing and Light."

```

TAF 9. 24 October 1987↩

10.10

```

My mind tells me that my heart

Is not a sincere God-lover.

My heart tells me that my mind

Can never be transformed

And will never be transformed.

But my Lord Supreme is secretly telling me

That both my mind and my heart

Are totally mistaken.

He is telling me that my heart

Is definitely a sincere God-lover,

And that my mind will before long

Be transformed —

Amazingly transformed

And unimaginably transformed.

```

TAF 10. 25 October 1987↩

11.11

```

My heart's spontaneous faith in my mind

Is a divinely beautiful dream.

My mind's implicit faith in my heart

Will be a supremely powerful reality.

```

TAF 11. 25 October 1987↩

12.12

```

My sisters and brothers,

You want to know from me

How I make tremendous progress every day,

Every hour, every minute, every second.

I am telling you my supreme secret:

I keep dreaming, dreaming and dreaming

God-Dreams sleeplessly.

```

TAF 12. 25 October 1987↩

13.13

```

I have lost my mind's purity.

That means I have lost much.

I have lost my heart's faith.

That means I have lost more.

I have lost my love of God.

That means I have lost all,

I have lost everything.

I have lost God the powerful Creator.

I have lost God the beautiful creation.

My Lord, my Lord, my Lord,

Do tell me how I can regain

my mind's purity,

My heart's faith and my love for You.

"My child, go and sing inside

your heart-garden.

You will regain your mind's purity.

My child, go and play with the blue-gold child

Inside your heart.

You will regain your heart's faith.

My child, go and meditate with the breath

Of your newly-acquired blue-gold child-friend.

You will regain your love for Me."

```

TAF 13. 15 November 1987↩

14.14

```

Because of my outer courage

My Beloved Lord Supreme,

Out of His boundless Compassion,

Is giving me what He has:

Bliss, His Eternity's infinite Bliss.

Because of my inner courage

My Beloved Lord Supreme,

Out of His boundless Affection,

Is giving me what He is:

Fulfilment, His Infinity's immortal Fulfilment.

```

TAF 14. 15 November 1987↩

15.15

```

My soul is God-Eternity's God-lover.

My heart is God-Eternity's God-dreamer.

My mind is God-Eternity's God-seeker.

My vital is God-Eternity's God-warrior.

My body is God-Eternity's God-server.

My life is God-Eternity's God-enjoyer.

```

TAF 15. 21 November 1987↩

```

My soul is of God

The Vision Transcendental.

My heart is for God

The Compassion Universal.

```

TAF 16. 6 December 1987↩

17.17

```

Only because of my soul's

Birthless and deathless surrender unconditional

To God's Will,

God has forgiven me countless times,

And He may do the same

Forever and forever.

```

TAF 17. 6 December 1987↩

18.18

```

Even when I am shamelessly ungrateful

To my Lord Supreme,

He forgives me immediately,

And my soul forgives me ultimately.

But I want to dislike my heart,

My mind, my vital and my body

Vehemently and ceaselessly.

I shall not forgive them so easily.

```

TAF 18. 6 December 1987↩

19.19

```

During the entire day

If I do not please my Beloved Lord Supreme

Even once,

Then in the evening

My soul helplessly and pitifully cries

Like a child completely lost

In a thick forest.

```

TAF 19. 6 December 1987↩

20.20

```

My Pilot Supreme most powerfully loves me

Because my soul knows

Who my Pilot Supreme is

And where my Pilot Supreme is.

My Pilot Supreme most affectionately loves me

Because He knows

That soon my heart will start loving Him

Unconditionally.

```

TAF 20. 6 December 1987↩

21.21

```

My hopeful heart

Is the most powerful blessing

From my Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

TAF 21. 14 December 1987↩

22.22

```

My sweet Lord Beloved Supreme,

Most compassionately You are telling me

That You are responsible

For the perfection of my life.

My Lord, I wish to tell You

That from today on

I shall be fully responsible

For the satisfaction of Your Heart.

```

TAF 22. 14 December 1987↩

23.23

```

What have I left undone?

I have not yet entered

Into the Heart-Garden

Of my sweet Lord Beloved Supreme.

What else have I left undone?

I have not yet claimed

My sweet Lord Beloved Supreme

As my own, very own.

```

TAF 23. 14 December 1987↩

24.24

```

I know, I know

That my little heart-cries

Are the harbingers

Of the world-seekers' Heaven-Life

On earth.

```

TAF 24. 14 December 1987↩

25.25

```

May my heart-sorrows

Not only purify my aspiration-life

But also awaken all human beings

Who are enjoying their life-long

Ignorance-sleep.

```
