Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 269

Return to the table of contents

26801

God is ever ready
To move Heaven and earth
To see me smiling
With utmost sincerity.

26802

My Lord tells me that
My soulful smile
Is by far
My best achievement.

26803

My inner courage
Is a most illumining
And fulfilling assistant
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme.

26804

Oh, the suffering I caused
For my Lord Supreme
Is far beyond
My imagination-flight!

26805

There was a time
When I obeyed God
Out of fear.

26806

There was a time
When I obeyed God
With utmost reluctance.

26807

There was a time
When I obeyed God
With a very deep sigh.

26808

I now obey God
With my life’s
Ever-blossoming joy
And my heart’s
Ever-increasing gratitude.

26809

If anybody asks me
What I am doing,
I shall only say
That I am trying every day
God’s Patience.

26810

May, my Lord,
I do everything,
Everywhere and every day
The way You want me to do.

26811

May my gratitude
Be as sure as
My Lord’s Protection-Shelter.

26812

Every day
I make it a special point
To avoid
All disobedience-holes
On the way to my Lord Supreme.

26813

When I do not pray and meditate,
The undivine forces
Force me to become friends with
Gloomy thoughts and cloudy skies
In my inner life.

26814

Nectar-bliss-songs
I sing only when
I am able to place myself
At the Feet
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme.

26815

O my silence-mind,
You are my heart’s
Sweetest fountain-delight.

26816

To become a superlative seeker,
We must not allow our aspiration-heart
Ever to sleep.

26817

As long as I find any dispute
Between my God-searching mind
And my God-crying heart,
I shall never be able
To become happy.

26818

When I live inside my heart-garden,
Deep I drink
The music of sweetness
And soulfulness.

26819

My Lord Supreme is helping me
Every day to get
My hope-flower-beauty and fragrance
In vaster quantities.

26820

No human being can ever scale
The mountain of God’s Will
Without the flood
Of God’s Compassion-Eye.

26821

A Compassion-Breath
From my Lord Supreme
Has destroyed
The limitless length
Of my ignorance-night.

26822

My Lord Beloved Supreme,
May each single wish of Yours
Be my supreme Command.

26823

My Lord,
I do not know when
My giant ego
Is going to be dissolved
In Your Compassion-Eye.

26824

In spiritual communication,
Mental telepathy
Is the beginners’ course.

26825

O seekers,
Do not lose courage!
Do not lose hope!
The saints of today
Were not saints yesterday.

26826

The Lord Supreme treasures us
Only when we show Him
Our genuine eagerness
To take part in His Cosmic Game.

26827

God forgives all our shortcomings
Save and except
Our indifference to humanity.

26828

Goodness
Is the flowering blossoms
Of our world-oneness-heart.

26829

God wants us
Every day to enjoy
An aspiration-feast.

26830

The doubt-suspicion-telephone line
Always
Remains busy.

26831

My Lord, I want
My doubting mind to expire,
My strangling vital to retire,
My heart’s aspiration-cry to inspire.

26832

A negativity-mind
Is a most deplorable failure
In the spiritual life.

26833

Devotion-tears
Are made of
Celestial beauty.

26834

The temptation-vital knows first
How to attract,
And then immediately
How to attack
Human beings.

26835

God does not want
Our heart’s aspiration-cries to hide.
He wants our heart’s aspiration-cries
To come to the fore
And fight against ignorance-frown.

26836

If it is at all
A Godward race,
Then we needs must have
A lightning-speed.

26837

Nobody can fulfil
His soul’s manifestation-promises
Unless an unconditional Grace
Descends from Above.

26838

A heart consumed with devotion-tears
Will definitely reach the God-Destination
Sooner than any other way.

26839

The dictionary of a hero supreme
Will never house
“Impossibility”.

26840

May my life kneel
Devotedly and soulfully
At my Lord’s Feet
Every morning and every evening.

26841

My Lord Supreme eagerly awaits
My surrender-life
With His all-embracing Arms.

26842

If the mind has enthusiasm
And the heart has eagerness,
Then we can fly in the skies
Of the ever-transcending Beyond.

26843

O world-critics,
You need a totally different world
To enjoy your lives!

26844

Each positive thought
Rightly deserves
To be multiplied and magnified.

26845

Nobody can wrestle
With the teeming crises of his fate
Unless God’s special Concern
Comes to his rescue.

26846

May my God-realisation-hope
And promise
Every day give me
A new awakening,
A new, fulfilling message.

26847

If you do not have
True love of God,
Then you cannot be inspired
At every moment
To please God in His own Way.

26848

Obedience
Has to be repeated
Ceaselessly and self-givingly.

26849

Gratitude-tears
Have
Nectar-flooded bliss.

26850

How beautiful
Is the openness of the mind.
How fruitful
Is the fulness of the heart.

26851

Each time your Master thinks of you
With his compassion-heart,
He gives your heart
A tangible progress-push.

26852

A heart of sincerity
Is always clothed
In purity-light.

26853

God is always ready
To meet with me
At His Obedience-School.

26854

Again and again
God asks my aspiration-heart
If it is all ready to take
World-transformation-dictation
From Him.

26855

The obedience of my mind
And the gratitude of my heart
Have become my life’s
Two God-partners.

26856

Each time I offer my life
To my Lord Supreme,
He immediately smiles at me
Reassuringly, unreservedly.

26857

No self-giving life
Can ever be lost
In the quagmire of the world.

26858

God’s Compassion-Eye
Is always ready
To lighten all the burdens
That attack our lives,
But we do not give God the chance.

26859

We must be sleepless
Plus ruthless
In our fight against the troublemakers
Of our inner life:
Doubt, anxiety, fear,
Jealousy and insecurity.

26860

O my mind,
I really do not know
How you can be always so inhospitable
To thoughts divine.

26861

My mind’s indifference-eye
To the world-community
Is my life’s
Himalayan blunder.

26862

May my life-boat always ply
Between
God the Compassion-Shore
And
God the Satisfaction-Shore.

26863

The worries and anxieties of the mind
Are always apt to take us away
Farther than the farthest
From our Lord Beloved Supreme.

26864

There is only one way
To fulfil ourselves most satisfactorily,
And that is
Our constant God-service-commitment.

26865

May my heart take messages
From the ever-transcending Beyond
The way my soul has been doing
From time immemorial.

26866

There can be nobody
As proudly lavish in praise
As our Inner Pilot Supreme.

26867

In no way am I better
Than a meaningless zero
If I do not fulfil the Command
Of my inner Hero Supreme.

26868

Doubt is an age-old habit.
We must break this old habit
For our inner progress-flight
And our outer success-march.

26869

Whenever I have an interview
With my Lord Beloved Supreme,
He asks me to spend
Only quality time
And not quantity time.

26870

May my life enjoy
Unbreakable bonds
Of Mother Earth-affection.

26871

Every new second
Is the threshold
Of a new, inspiring beginning.

26872

My heart is looking for a place
Where it can imagine
God’s Lotus-Feet
Most prayerfully.

26873

Each morning
My soul teaches me
How to wing
Far beyond the horizons.

26874

God the Power
Is the fear-producer
In my life.

26875

God the Love
Is the satisfaction-giver
To my life.

26876

Asceticism cannot be
The fully perfect way
For God-realisation.

26877

My Lord,
May my gratitude-heart
Be a sea of tears.

26878

The parents of the mind
Are
Stupidity and audacity.

26879

Unlike the mind,
The heart is always eager
To be the partner of the mind.

26880

My heart is fond of
Unity.
My mind is proud of
Diversity.

26881

My Lord wants me to be with Him
Only when I am sincerely ready
To spend quality time.

26882

My mind,
Your aspiration-dedication-house
Needs transformation
Or at least a major repair.

26883

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye
Quietly and proudly
Beckons my aspiration-heart.

26884

A frustration-mind
And an aggression-vital
Highly speak of each other.

26885

My heart’s compassion-tears
Meet with
My Lord’s proudest
Satisfaction-Smiles.

26886

My aspiration-vacation
My Lord Supreme
Never approves.

26887

Nothing can be better
Than a self-giving oneness —
Nothing!

26888

My Lord,
Do take away
All my time,
For You, only for You.

26889

God is all ready
With His open Arms,
But alas,
Where is my surrender-life?

26890

My heart kneels
At God’s Feet,
Not for His Satisfaction
But for His Compassion.

26891

God wants my life
To live between
Enthusiasm and eagerness,
And nowhere else.

26892

Everything else I find,
Save and except
The breath of silence.

26893

Anything the Master touches
Immediately becomes
A God-satisfaction-instrument.

26894

A reasoning mind
Is the most deplorable
Navigator.

26895

A heart of poise
Meets with God’s
Thunderous Applause.

26896

Our hearts
Pray to God
Self-givingly.

26897

Our minds
Betray God
Unreservedly.

26898

If only for a brief moment
I can sit at the Feet
Of my Lord Supreme,
My life’s task
Will be accomplished.

26899

Each individual must develop
A supremely passionate quest
For the Absolute Truth.

26900

My Lord,
I beg of You to bless me
With Your moonlit Compassion
And not with Your sunlit Power.
