Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 213
21201
Every dayEverything that I learn
Comes from the compassion-silence
Of my soul.
21202
When I ask my mindTo be the guide,
It leads me on a long road
To nowhere.
21203
No human being,No matter how undivine he is now,
Is beyond redemption.
21204
God speaks directlyTo His doubt-killing
And faith-nourishing children.
21205
Is there any dayWhen we human beings
Do not squander
God’s Compassion-Smiles?
21206
No love-devotion-surrender-strideAlong the path of spirituality
Can ever be too short.
21207
The first thing that I doEvery morning
Is synchronise
My aspiration-heartbeat
With God’s Compassion-Heartbeat.
21208
O seeker,If you want to hide,
Then hide your mind’s wants,
But never hide your heart’s needs.
21209
God the ForgivenessForgave you long ago.
But will you ever dare
To forgive yourself
For your God-unfulfilling life?
21210
Although your lifeIs based on desires,
God’s Compassion-Eye
Can change your present-day world.
21211
I pray for Heaven’s blessingsBefore I embark
On any God-manifestation-adventure.
21212
God is always anxiousAnd eager
To hear my heart’s
Tear-songs.
21213
On principle,Spirituality does not show interest
In championing the cause
Of individuality.
21214
EradicateYour mind’s doubt-weeds.
Every day
Sow new faith-seeds
Inside your heart-garden.
21215
My soulOf God-oneness-ecstasy
Orbits around
God’s Satisfaction-Pride.
21216
We makeA monumental blunder
When we deliberately delay
In our God-fulfilment-task.
21217
If your heart constantly throbsWith aspiration,
Then your God-realisation-day
Cannot remain a far cry.
21218
O my mind,You will be able to awaken
To the supernal light
Only after you have been struck
By intense remorse.
21219
Without hope in the heart,Without faith in the mind,
No human being
Can ever make substantial progress.
21220
In our desire-life, alas,We have so many hopes!
Sooner or later
They get splintered to pieces.
21221
A cheerful, self-giving heartTo God
Is indeed a great architect
Of world-peace.
21222
You can beGod’s choicest instrument
Only if you please God
Long before God pleases you.
21223
During our meditationThe deeper we go,
The louder we hear
God’s Satisfaction-Applause.
21224
When we prayWith a purity-mind,
Our hopeful life soars
Into God’s boundless Promise-Sky.
21225
When lethargy attacks you,Scolding is not enough.
Give lethargy your thunder-kick!
21226
SoulfulnessIs always apt to resonate
Inside a heart of self-offering.
21227
A heart of unconditional surrenderIs blessed every day
By newness-sweetness-dreams.
21228
What we all needIs a God-reliance-heart-home
And not
A self-confidence-mind-mansion.
21229
I prayerfully ask GodTo descend
With a new heart.
God blessingfully asks me
To ascend
With a new mind.
21230
The indulgence-pleasure of the mindAlways carries
Superiority-pride with it.
21231
You want to knowWhat insecurity can do.
Insecurity can eclipse
Even our heart’s inner sun.
21232
The meditation of the heartCheerfully leads the mind
Out of doubt-forest.
21233
Each soul is entrustedWith a supreme God-secret.
At God’s choice Hour
God reveals the secret
For God-manifestation.
21234
God is availableWhen I look forward
And not backward.
God is attainable
When I look within
And not without.
21235
O aspiration-famine-world,Do not spurn,
Even for a fleeting second,
God’s Compassion-Reign.
21236
No matter how deliberatelyWe keep ourselves away
From God’s Compassion,
God’s Compassion-Sea will never dry.
21237
My fearful mindIs for Compassion-God.
My cheerful heart
Is for Justice-God.
21238
A mind of beliefCan at times be
A life of bondage.
But a heart of faith
Is always
A life of freedom.
21239
My heart-aspirationLives in Heaven.
My life-dedication
Lives on earth.
21240
How did our ancestors succeed?They succeeded
On the strength of their hearts’
Sleepless God-mounting cries.
21241
Only the things that I learnIn silence and from silence
Illumine and satisfy my life.
21242
Consciously and deliberatelyWhen I do not obey my soul-bird,
Sleepless sorrows torture my heart.
21243
Alas, why do I every dayWaste my time
Hiding in vain
From my Lord’s Compassion-Eye?
21244
Even your dearestMay not understand your mind
Or feel your heart’s sufferings.
Therefore, take shelter
In your heart’s illumination-meditation.
Yours will be
The all-fulfilling satisfaction.
21245
O my heart’s forgotten hope-river,I do not know how
I can once more swim in you
To arrive at
My God-satisfaction-destination.
21246
Only an aspiration-heartCan and does sing
God’s Universal Heart-Songs.
21247
You do not have to dieTo be indifferent to world-criticism.
You just have to climb up
High, higher, highest,
Along with your heart’s
Heaven-climbing aspiration-flames.
21248
Since there is nothing useless,Nothing meaningless
In God’s creation, O seeker,
How can you allow yourself to ignore
Any God-manifested vision?
21249
Be not free withYour God-fulfilment-promises.
Be free with
Your man-service-life.
21250
Each timeI surrender myself cheerfully
To God’s Will,
I see right in front of me
A free and fair highway
Leading to the Home
Of my Beloved Supreme.
21251
Unconditional surrenderIs the greatest contribution
Made by a sleepless aspiration-heart.
21252
Attach yourselfTo the blossoming beauty within,
And detach yourself
From the brooding desire-mind.
21253
Unlike the human mind,The divine heart knows
That we can never overestimate
God’s Compassion and Forgiveness.
21254
O seeker,Smile and smile
To lessen the strength
Of your inner struggle.
21255
God’s unhorizoned GraceEnters into our hearts
Not to surprise us,
But to awaken us.
21256
The inner voiceAlways warns us
Long before
It reprimands us.
21257
My Lord Supreme,May I be blessed every morning
By the magnet
Of Your Compassion-flooded Feet.
21258
Alas,I do not know why and how
My mind ruthlessly attacks
Everything that my heart does
Or even decides to do.
21259
Close your mind-bookCompletely,
And then open your heart-book
Slowly, lovingly and devotedly.
21260
God never causesOur embarrassment.
He only leads us
To our enlightenment,
Which He has given us
As our birthright.
21261
After becoming a seeker,If I do not do the right thing
And become the right person,
God tells me that He Himself
Will be the real loser.
21262
Every dayMy aspiration-heart embarks
Cheerfully and proudly
On God-pleasing adventures.
21263
My God-manifestation-possibilityIs indeed an express and perfect
Silent Message
From God Himself.
21264
Each sincere prayerHas the wings to fly
Not only from
Hope to hope-skies,
But also from
Fulfilment to fulfilment-stars.
21265
No human being can liveWithout heart-hope.
No human being can live
Without God-Compassion.
No God can be satisfied
Without man-perfection.
21266
When I look at my unaspiring mind,I am simply shocked to see
Its dangerous overweight!
21267
My compassionate LordBlessingfully respects me
When I devotedly expect less.
21268
An ingratitude-soulGets a send-off from Heaven
With no welcome from earth.
21269
God exposed me publiclyOnly to perfect me and claim me
Inwardly and permanently.
21270
If you do not disciplineYour earth-bound desire-mind,
You will never be able to have
A trouble-torture-free life.
21271
I have two prayers every day:I pray to God for the early death
Of my doubting mind
And for the everlasting life
Of my aspiring heart.
21272
A heart of divine loveWill always go far beyond
Earth-bound limits.
21273
God always wants His heart-childrenTo study at
His simplicity-purity-school.
21274
O my heart,Just bring to the fore
Your divinity’s light
And put one fearless foot
In front of the other
While you are walking
Inside your darkest mind-forest.
21275
Do not wrestle withYour restless mind.
Meditate on
Your soul’s delight
To silence and illumine
The pride of your ignorance-mind.
21276
I have come to realiseThat my aspiration-revival
Is my only heart-survival.
21277
If we do not pray and meditate,Then there will be no way for us
To protect ourselves
From complacency-decay.
21278
My Lord,Your Will is my way.
My Lord,
Your Way is my only goal.
21279
When I remain inside my heart,God becomes quite familiar.
But when I am inside my mind,
God is not only unknown
But also unknowable.
21280
I feel sadWhen I do not see my soul.
I feel extremely sad
When I do not feel my soul’s presence
Inside my heart.
I am doomed to disappointment
When I do not hear anything about my soul
From my Lord Supreme.
21281
The silence of my heartHas finally silenced and illumined
My endless mind-sermons.
21282
God immediately and incessantly applaudsWhen His earth-transformation-team
Succeeds in manifesting Him
Even in a small measure.
21283
How much is God-realisation these days?The price of God-realisation
Will forever remain
Unimaginably high.
21284
Alas,Every day I spend my time
Inside my deplorable mind
And not
Inside my adorable heart.
21285
Every day I depend onMy sincerity and determination
To renew
My God-fulfilment-contract.
21286
When the human mindIs left to itself,
Our God-fulfilment-promise
Will forever remain a far cry.
21287
God’s Compassion is at workWhen He appreciates us.
Our sincerity is at work
When we adore God.
21288
When a seeker realises God,God tells him to make a choice:
Either to enjoy His infinite Bliss
Or to throw his heart and soul
Into God-manifestation on earth.
21289
God depends on meOnly when my life becomes
A ceaselessly unconditional breath.
21290
I do not want to knowWhat God plans to do with my life.
I just want to know
If I can remain eternally inside
His Heart-Garden.
21291
My soul’s brillianceWill eternally outshine
My life’s achievement-splendours.
21292
I thought that I had done so muchFor God-manifestation,
But God took one look
At my God-manifestation-progress-report
And burst into roaring laughter.
21293
As there is no differenceBetween the mind of the intellect
And the voice of the intellect,
Even so, there is no difference
Between the heart of the seeker
And the life of the seeker.
21294
God keeps His Heart’s Oneness-DoorAlways open
Not only for my dear friends
But also for my stark adversaries.
21295
When I look at my mind,I see nothing but a life
Of lost opportunities.
When I look at my heart,
I see nothing but a life
Of blossoming opportunities.
21296
Why am I crying?I am crying because
My Beloved Supreme
Has come to see me,
The human in me.
Why am I smiling?
I am smiling because
My Beloved Supreme
Has come to take me,
Both the divine in me
And the undivine in me.
21297
If we do not give GodThe exact thing He wants from us,
He will never be satisfied
With a compromise.
21298
Our enlightenment-progressDepends on how seriously we have taken
Our life-detachment-process.
21299
What is faith and what is doubt?Faith is something
That God’s Heart plays with.
Doubt is something
That my mind plays with.
21300
How have I made my life secure?I have done absolutely the right thing.
What is the right thing?
At every moment I listen
To God’s Command,
Seated at His Compassion-Feet.
