Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees, part 23

Return to the table of contents

22001

O world,
I beg of you,
See not me
But my Lord Beloved Supreme
In me.

22002

Every day
My Lord slips an encouraging message
Under my heart-door.

22003

To become spiritually tall, taller, tallest,
We must be always
On our knees.

22004

I have a very special prayer:
I wish to fly on a non-stop
Aspiration-rocket.

22005

A true God-lover
Is he who cannot breathe
Without self-giving.

22006

God helps us personally
When we want to build
A monument of love.

22007

To hope is to bring down
A special gift
From Heaven.

22008

To change one’s life
Is to increase
The world-transformation-hopes.

22009

The more we forgive,
The stronger we become.

22010

Do not be discouraged.
Give yourself a second chance.
You will succeed.

22011

Reality-joys
Come from
The blossoming of dreams.

22012

Self-giving
Should be
A full-time job.

22013

Do not entangle others
With your problems.

22014

Hope
Is sweetness.
Promise
Is fulness.

22015

To belittle others
Is to make oneself little.

22016

Love
Hopes for
Expectation-fulfilment.

22017

Faith
Sings the song
Of self-transcendence.

22018

The power of imagination
Is unimaginable.

22019

No patience-light,
No success-delight.

22020

Aspiration means
God’s Grace
Guaranteed.

22021

Happiness
Is the beginning
Of self-confidence.

22022

Actions never lie,
But words do.

22023

Peace
Is self-offering
In action.

22024

The difference between
The heart and the mind
Is this:
The heart answers questions;
The mind questions answers.

22025

The beauty
Of self-giving
Has to be universal.

22026

You will delay God
Indefinitely
If you do not forgive yourself.

22027

Unlike in the outer world,
The divine qualities
Definitely outnumber
The undivine qualities
In the inner world.

22028

Eagerness shows us that
Everything is achievable.

22029

You become perfect
When you make the other person
Feel important.

22030

Beautiful
Are the heart-tears.

22031

Powerful
Are the soul-smiles.

22032

Fruitful
Are the life-sacrifices.

22033

No divine thought
Can forever remain
Imprisoned.

22034

Happiness and courage
Feed each other.

22035

We live in our mind-house,
But God wants us to live
In our heart-home.

22036

Just be yourself.
Lo, God is running
Towards you.

22037

A purity-mind
Is, indeed,
An extraordinary achievement.

22038

My Lord,
I have taught myself
How to pray.
Will You not teach me
How to meditate?

22039

Giving is not
An obligation.
Giving is
Self-expansion.

22040

The mind knows
What its limitations are.
Still, it denies them.

22041

Unconditional surrender
Means complete
God-oneness-achievement.

22042

A sincere seeker
Can easily radiate
God’s Radiance
All-where.

22043

A God-eagerness-heart
Never rests.

22044

The mind can either speculate
Or calculate —
Nothing more.

22045

The heart sees
The Light
And becomes
The Delight.

22046

A roaring enthusiasm
Is of paramount importance
To expedite
Our God-ordained mission
On earth.

22047

May my life-boat ply between
My aspiration-eagerness-shore
And
My dedication-eagerness-shore.

22048

Devotion-tears
And the heart-sweetness
Together live.

22049

The mind’s funeral procession
Is, alas, endless.

22050

My heart’s tears
Are eternally tied to
My soul’s smiles.

22051

A life of surrender
Runs very fast
On the perfection-road.

22052

Whenever my heart does anything,
It waits for
God’s final Touch.

22053

When I surrender to God’s Will,
I immediately become
A happiness-heart-sunshine.

22054

My morning prayers
Save my days.

22055

My evening prayers
Illumine my nights.

22056

Self-doubt
Is
The worst possible enemy.

22057

Obedience
Is
Our guiding pole-star.

22058

To me,
Depression is nothing short of
Exasperation.

22059

Our prayer-heart
Is cradled
By God’s Compassion-Eye.

22060

No life should remain
An unexplored reality.

22061

My life’s only shore
Is
My Lord’s Forgiveness-Smile.

22062

The vital smuggles.
The mind struggles.
The heart excels.

22063

Quite soon
Expectation-flowers
Fade.

22064

The human life
Is nothing but
A chronic desire-disease.

22065

O God-seeker,
God will grant you
An appointment
If you give up
Your disappointment.

22066

God tells us to pray
Not only in advance
But also
Today, tomorrow
And every day.

22067

Death can at most
Find us,
But Eternity
Cradles us.

22068

There can be no
God-realisation
For the spirituality-idlers.

22069

He who worships God soulfully
Eventually becomes Godlike
In everything.

22070

God loves us
Even if we do not care for
His Love.

22071

Forgive your enemies:
Lo and behold,
They have become
Your slaves.

22072

Feed your faith constantly.
Doubt will disappear
Instantly.

22073

God does not want from me
E-mail.
He wants me to send Him only
Knee-mail.

22074

When the dear ones depart,
Our hearts are broken.
This is, indeed, everyone’s
Everyday experience.

22075

God tells me
That He has heard enough
Of my advice.
What He needs now from me:
Prayer.

22076

It is not what you know
But how you know
That counts.

22077

At the end of the mind-tunnel,
There is always a sunrise.

22078

God wants me to do
Only my very best.
The rest He is more than willing to do
For me.

22079

We must aspire sleeplessly
Before our body
Expires.

22080

What my life needs
Is a model
And not a critic.

22081

Since God’s Compassion-Eye
Is everywhere,
We can pray and meditate
Anywhere.

22082

In spite of our countless misdeeds,
We are saved.
Why?
Precisely because God has
A big eraser.

22083

If you starve your faith,
Before long
Your own divinity-soul
Will relinquish you.

22084

Our real failure takes place
When we give up making
Further attempts.

22085

No human being
Can forever remain
A downright failure.

22086

If we do not cultivate unconditional love
Inside our heart,
Our mind will become
Infinitely worse than
What it is now.

22087

God’s Way
Is always flooded with
Good humour.

22088

The human in me
Wants the way out.
The divine in me
Wants the way up.

22089

First things first:
My ego-mind must surrender to
My God-ordained heart.

22090

Every day
God wants me to try
Something new,
For He Himself wants
To bury my past.

22091

I cherish my heart’s
Oneness with my soul,
Even if it lasts
Only for a fleeting moment.

22092

If you can sincerely appreciate yourself,
Then God will, before long,
Liberate you.

22093

If you want to play
With God’s Eye and God’s Heart,
Then delay not, delay not!

22094

God’s Compassion-Eye
Is for me all the time.
Therefore, there is nothing
To alarm me.

22095

God lowers Himself
To raise humanity.

22096

Heart-tears
Are the harbingers
Of happiness-harvest.

22097

God blesses us
With wisdom-light
For the asking.

22098

Our heart-tears
Are the staircases
To Heaven.

22099

One serious look
From God
Can transform our life
Altogether.

22100

Our usefulness
Depends on
Our faithfulness.

22101

It will not be long
Before the mind-jungle
Shall be transformed
Into the heart-garden.

22102

We are all apt to remind God
Of His Promises,
But we are so fortunate
That God does not do
The same thing to us.

22103

To have full reliance on God
Is to be in
The Heart-Home of God
All the time.

22104

It is only the heart-meditation
That connects
All the nations.

22105

God listens
To my gratitude-heart-songs
With tremendous joy.

22106

I cannot remember
If I have ever promised God
Anything.

22107

God cannot remember
If He has ever given me
Anything.

22108

All serious daring
Begins in the depths
Of the heart.

22109

Each positive thought
Embodies fruitfulness.

22110

May God-Love-Lightning
Every day
Strike my heart.

22111

In my deep meditation,
I see God come to me
With the sunlit shower
Of His Love.

22112

God has a very special fondness
For a silence-peace-life.

22113

Each deep meditation
Adds to the beauty
Of a goodness-heart-garden.

22114

Every day
I start my life
With rainbow-oneness-smiles.

22115

Meditation has the rare capacity
To carry our hearts
To the summit-heights.

22116

No opportunity comes to us
Again and again.
Therefore
When we have an opportunity,
Immediately we must act on it.

22117

Nothing significant can we accomplish
If we are found
In our mind’s thought-cycles.

22118

My heart always lives
In singing and dancing
Hopes.

22119

Compassion and concern
Have the power
To change everything.

22120

Unconditional surrender
Means
A life of God-ecstasy.

22121

Our implicit faith
And God’s blessingful Promise
Live together.

22122

My disaster-life
Is the pioneer
Of my new awakening.

22123

I have been receiving
God’s Smile
For a long time.
Now I need something more:
God’s Forgiveness.

22124

Where is God?
Definitely not in
A complexity-mind.

22125

Where is God?
Unmistakably inside
A simplicity-heart.

22126

When we love and serve
The poor,
God immediately opens His Heart-Door
To us.

22127

For a seeker,
There can be no other way —
Only the Way of God.

22128

Morning
Is
The beauty of light.

22129

Evening
Is
The fragrance of peace.

22130

When to smash
Our ignorance-ties?
Here and now.

22131

I please God’s Eye
With my
Happiness-smiles.

22132

I please God’s Heart
With my
Unhappiness-surrender-tears.

22133

Expectation is
The very beginning
Of a devastating frustration.

22134

If you are not
On God’s waiting line,
How will you ever see God?

22135

My flaming heart
Speedily reaches
God’s Palace.

22136

A life of purity
Has a very rare fragrance.

22137

Be not frustrated.
Once more fall in love
With your life.

22138

The full blossoming of Divinity
Depends on
Self-deepening humility.

22139

My Lord,
Do comfort my uneasy mind
And broken heart.

22140

My Lord,
Do bless my tortured mind
And enraptured heart
At the same time.

22141

Our victory-banner flies
Only when
Our ego-life dies.

22142

The heart abides
By God’s unknown
And unseen Laws.

22143

The mind abides
By its own laws.

22144

Our heart-prayers
Do bring in
Our salvation.

22145

When my devotion-heart
Ascends,
My Lord’s Satisfaction-Eye
Descends.

22146

God’s Pride
Knows no bounds
When His powerful punishment
We cheerfully accept.

22147

True, my mind is for
My mind’s sake,
But my heart is always for
God’s sake.

22148

In my outer life,
I smile and strive.

22149

In my inner life,
I cry and win.

22150

God has confidence in me
Only when I have faith
In myself.

22151

My life’s
Sound-questions
God never answers.

22152

My heart’s
Silence-questions
God promptly answers.

22153

When does God speak to me?
Only when I serve Him unreservedly
In mankind.

22154

The life of a sleeplessly
Self-giving seeker
Is anchored on the rock
Of Immortality.

22155

I teach my lips
Only one song
Every day.

22156

God teaches my heart
One hundred songs
Every day.

22157

God tells me
To treasure my life
Exactly the way
He treasures my heart.

22158

God’s Compassion is always free.
I want my dedication-life
Also to be free.

22159

I have always been
Anxiety-worry-centred.
From now on I shall only be
God-centred.

22160

The mind’s charts
Are all full of mistakes.

22161

The heart’s charts
Are always perfect.
Therefore, follow them.

22162

For a God-loving heart,
There is no
Unfamiliar territory.

22163

God wants my days
To be filled
With my heart-tears.

22164

God wants my nights
To be filled
With my soul-smiles.

22165

The mind-explorer
Does not see the Goal
Anywhere.

22166

The heart-explorer
Discovers God
Here, there and everywhere,
Plus sooner than the soonest.

22167

God is not pleased with her.
Why?
Because she keeps
God’s sacred Messages
Only to herself.

22168

Do not look at a seeker’s eyes,
Do not look at a seeker’s face,
But look at his heart.

22169

To trust everybody’s heart
Is to become
A special child of God.

22170

I face my blunders
To put them
Far behind me.

22171

My life has
Only one room,
But my heart has
Room for all.

22172

Purity is the soil
Where joy thrives.

22173

Alas, God asks me
Why I am not
What I once was.

22174

God takes away our failures
And places them inside
His Heart.
In return, He gives our heart
His Wisdom-Light.

22175

I do not invite God
To work wonders
Inside my life.

22176

I invite God
To do with my life
Whatever He wants to do.

22177

If we can meet every circumstance
With faith,
Then there can be no failure.

22178

Each sad moment of my life
I turn into
A God-Blessing-delight.

22179

God Himself will be
Your protection-shield
If you cultivate a faith-field-life.

22180

I love God sleeplessly.
Therefore God gives me time
For everything.

22181

A good student of life
Has only one aim:
God-Satisfaction.

22182

We are all mistaken.
God’s lessons
Are always easier than the easiest.

22183

A highly advanced soul
Knows how to turn
All his activities
Into prayers.

22184

God says,
“Go.”
My mind says,
“No, no, no!”

22185

God says,
“Come.”
My heart says,
“Yes, yes, yes!”

22186

God feeds us Himself
When we meet
With others’ needs.

22187

God blesses
A cheerful heart
With His God-Feast.

22188

Every day God invites
The sincere God-seekers
To walk
In His Footsteps.

22189

Surrender is the God-joy
That sings and sings
God-songs within.

22190

Divine Blessings never come down
With fanfare.
They come down
In secrecy supreme.

22191

The hope-flowers
Of unaspiring people
Quickly wither.

22192

The Master
Is the speaking voice
Of the silent God.

22193

May God’s Compassion-Eye
And Forgiveness-Heart
Be embossed
On my God-serving life.

22194

To feed your faith constantly
Is to starve your doubt
To death.

22195

We are embarrassed to offer
Our burdens to God.
But God says, “My children,
Give Me your burdens.
Anything that comes from you
I enjoy.”

22196

When I look at God,
He tells me,
“My child,
If you do not want
To think of Me all the time,
No harm.
Just thank Me seven times a day.”

22197

God repeatedly tells us
That what we prayerfully worship
We soulfully become.

22198

The divine power
Illuminates.

22199

The human power
Dominates.

22200

The animal power
Contaminates.

22201

God wants me to measure
My life
By my concern
For mankind.

22202

There was a time
When I used to adore
God’s Power-Hand.
But now I only adore
God’s Love-Heart.

22203

The human in us
Does not know
Where we stand.

22204

The divine in us knows
Not only where we stand,
But also where we are going
And where we shall arrive.

22205

When I tell God
That I need His correction,
He immediately tells me,
“My child,
What you need is My direction
And not My correction.”

22206

Inactivity knows
No reality’s divinity.

22207

If we have sincerity
In our hearts,
Then we shall definitely be
On a God-directed path.

22208

An enthusiasm-mind
And a patience-heart
Know no failure.

22209

Today is the bridge
Between my heart’s past cries
And my life’s future smiles.

22210

The essence of service
Is
Life-concern.

22211

My soul is the pole-star
Round which my aspiration-life
Revolves.

22212

Only when we are pure in heart
Does God become the beacon
In our ignorance-night.

22213

There is no such thing
As a convenient time.
Therefore we must not tarry.
We must throw ourselves into
God-manifestation-dedication-service.

22214

My Lord Beloved Supreme,
I get joy only when I cast myself
At Your Feet
And bathe Your Feet
With my soul-tears.

22215

My Lord, You are telling me
That I have served You
For years and years
Most soulfully and most willingly.
Therefore You want to give me
Some rewards.
My Lord,
I need only one reward.
That reward is Your Presence-Light
Inside my mind-jungle-night.

22216

My Lord, I assure You
That You will not find me any more
Wallowing in the pleasures
Of ignorance.
You will find me
Only in my self-giving life to You
And to my sisters and brothers
Of the world.

22217

My Lord,
You are asking me to empty my mind
So that You can fill my life
With the abundance
Of Your Divinity’s Light and Delight.

22218

My Lord,
You are asking me to offer
The fleeting moments of my love
To You,
And You will flood me with Your Concern
And Fondness.
My Lord, I am all ready.
Let us keep our promises.

22219

My Lord,
It is not my mind’s imagination
But my heart’s conviction
That You loved me, You love me
And You will forever love me
With Your everlasting Love.

22220

My Lord,
My joy knows no bounds
That You are never out of my thoughts,
Even for a fleeting second.

22221

There is not a single day,
Not a single hour,
Not a single minute,
Not a single second
That my Lord does not think of me.
How is it that I cannot
Do the same?

22222

My Lord says,
“My child, lovingly I go
Wherever you go,
Even when you enter into the world
Of darkest night.”

22223

My Lord,
You want me to rise and rise
Only to hear from You
That You are all for me.

22224

My Lord,
Every day I fail You
Sadly and miserably.
Yet every day You bless me
With the abundance
Of Your Compassion-Eye
And Forgiveness-Heart.

22225

In the morning
I live for God’s Peace.
In the evening
I live for God’s Silence.

22226

I love to follow You, my Lord,
But You tell me that
You do not want to see
Any distance in between us.

22227

Alas, I cannot do away
With my past,
Although my Lord Supreme tells me
To walk every day
In the newness of life.

22228

At this very moment,
Let my mind long for
My heart’s beauty
And my heart long for
My soul’s fragrance.

22229

My heart does not want me to fail.
My soul wants me to sail
Into the ever-transcending Beyond.

22230

In God’s Eye,
A seeker is a colossal failure
Who does not believe in
Self-discipline.

22231

Lethargy means
Self-destruction-inevitability.

22232

God does not want us to be under
His strict control.
He wants us to be under
His Compassion-Protection-Eye.

22233

The world of sound
Is man-made confusion.
The world of silence
Is God-made illumination.

22234

Complexity exists
Only to destroy
Our God-existence-reality-bliss.

22235

Two things I must know:
When my mind-night
Will be over;
When my heart-light
Will blossom everywhere.

22236

If you want to be truly happy,
Be not fearful
But be joyful
On the strength of your self-giving.

22237

God is extremely proud of
Those whose patience
Never runs out.

22238

A questioning mind
And a fearful vital
Can never live
With a cheerful, soulful
And fruitful heart.

22239

O my mind, do not look back
For Paradise.
O my heart, look ahead.
Behold, Paradise is beckoning you.

22240

The anxiety of the mind
Leads us
To the suffering of the heart.

22241

Sow soulfully
And
Reap bountifully.

22242

If our confidence
Is not founded on faith,
We can make no progress.

22243

O my vital,
You love to be in rebellion.
Then go your own way.

22244

O my heart,
You love to be in submission
To God’s Will.
God is proudly showing you His Way,
The only Way.

22245

God is not at all interested in knowing
What I tell the world.
God is extremely eager to know
What I do for the world.

22246

God is ready to bring me
His Fulness
If I silence my mind forever.

22247

Our trials come and go.
God’s Compassion,
Once it comes, never goes.

22248

God gives us everything
Out of His Heart of Love.
Can we not offer Him
An infinitesimal portion
Of gratitude?

22249

A questioning mind
Is, indeed,
A fatal disease.

22250

Death is
The next-door neighbour
Of mental agonies.

22251

My Lord,
You want me to give You
All my thoughts.
May I know why?
“My child,
I want to keep you
And your thoughts separate
To give you peace.”

22252

Who can escape the snares
Of flattery?
Perhaps nobody.

22253

When we run after
The outer beauty,
We mar the inner beauty.

22254

Quite often pride takes us high,
Very high,
Only to drop us dead.

22255

Quite often criticism forces us
Into the abysmal abyss
From where we can find
No escape.

22256

Be careful!
Do not allow the doubt-beast
To chase you.
Be fully armed with faith-armour.

22257

When our will
Is completely surrendered
To God’s Will,
We see the beauty
And enjoy the fragrance of our soul
Everywhere.

22258

Not unannounced but announced
The Hour of God
Approaches us.

22259

When I care for God’s Light,
He shares His Heart
With me.

22260

The tears
Of my heart
Brighten my eyes.

22261

The beauty of sincerity
Is rare
In the mind.

22262

The fragrance of purity
Is rarer
In the mind.

22263

The nectar-delight
Of the soul
Is never to be found
In the mind.

22264

Freedom
We can truly enjoy
Only when everyone
Has freedom.

22265

Impurity
Disturbs the balance
Of everything.

22266

Anything divine
That is shared
Is immediately doubled.

22267

Desire binds
Not only our mind
But everything that we have
In our possession.

22268

Critics
Have nothing
But ignorance-confidence-night.

22269

Silence
Is our life’s companion
Par excellence.

22270

Opportunity
Does not come to us
Without being invoked
By our aspiration-heart.

22271

Divinity shines bright
In the thick of
Darkness.

22272

If anything is divine in us,
It is bound to help us
Expedite our inner progress.

22273

Every day
Is a busy day
For a lazy person.

22274

We must know
Our own identity
Before we offer ourselves
To the world at large.

22275

If you expect friendship
To be blameless,
Then you will have no friend.

22276

An unsatisfied mind
Is prone to
Confusion.

22277

God may forgive
Our stupidity,
But He is not going to forgive
Our insincerity.

22278

Meditation
Is the complete awareness
Of vastness.

22279

Meditation
Is the perfect identification
With fulness.

22280

Alas,
Big words
Quite often do not carry satisfaction
Either in the inner world
Or in the outer world.

22281

To a real seeker,
Desires are luxuries,
Aspirations are necessities.

22282

No human being
Can ever escape
The power of ups and downs
In his life.

22283

Silence
Is the increase
Of inner depth.

22284

Silence
Is the increase
Of outer strength.

22285

Our enemies unconsciously
Strengthen our determination
To become perfect instruments
Of God.

22286

To make yourself happy,
Confess your blunders
Before you face any criticism.

22287

Since God
Has not appointed darkness
To conquer our heart and life,
Darkness will never succeed.

22288

Since God
Has appointed Light
To awaken us and to illumine us,
We are bound to be successful.

22289

Be careful of your pride.
Pride can easily
Throw you out
Into the world of nowhere.

22290

We must play a fair game
With our own illumining soul
And with our own aspiring heart.

22291

Words
Cannot give us
Illumination.

22292

Words
Can at most give us
Education.

22293

Silence
Gives us liberation, realisation
And God-manifestation-capacities.

22294

As long as the human mind
Is on the rise,
We will not be able
To escape war.

22295

When we love the whole world
With utmost sincerity,
We can have no enemies.

22296

Knowledge
Is acquired
In the outer world.

22297

Wisdom
Is sought
In the inner world.

22298

He who laughs and laughs
At his own blunders
Can make the fastest progress.

22299

Love the world
If you want to go forward speedily
In your aspiration-life.

22300

Each day
We can increase
Our inner beauty
By increasing
Our God-devotion.

22301

A prayerful voice
We appreciate.

22302

A soulful heart
We admire.

22303

A fruitful life
We adore.

22304

A self-giving breath
We love and become.

22305

It is never too late
To offer our heart-tears
And our soul-smiles
To God.

22306

How can we have
A healthy life
If we have
An unhealthy mind?

22307

World peace
Can be achieved
Only by sacrifices
And not by speeches.

22308

In the inner world,
Only with silence-profundity
Can our life fly.

22309

For protection,
More protection
And infinitely more protection,
Each human being
Must pray to God.

22310

To hate anyone
Is to hate
Your God-omnipresent oneness.

22311

Before opportunity
Knocks at our door,
We must present ourselves
At God’s Door.

22312

Opportunity favours
A ready mind
And an eager heart.

22313

The power of the mind
And the strength of the heart
Thrive in the soil
Of silence.

22314

An absurd statement:
War for peace.

22315

Speak out
And prove to the world
That you are
Only for God.

22316

My Lord,
If You do not speak to me,
I shall not suffer.
But if You do not speak
To my heart
Every day, every hour
And every moment,
Then I shall suffer unimaginably.

22317

My Lord,
If You do not listen to me,
I shall not suffer.
But if You do not listen
To my ceaseless heart-tears,
Then I shall suffer breathlessly.

22318

Only God-love, God-devotion
And God-surrender
Can give confidence and joy
To the helpless orphan-world.

22319

If I am a true disciple,
Then I must dauntlessly proclaim
My only deathless loyalty
To my Master.

22320

Not those who are old
In the mind,
But only those who are young
In the heart
Shall win the Godward race.

22321

God repeatedly tells us
That each and every human being
On earth
Is worthy of His Blessings
Precisely because
He is the sole Creator
Of His creation.

22322

To achieve an A-plus
In my spiritual life,
I must sleeplessly and breathlessly
Claim my Master
To be my All.

22323

If you are a constant self-giver,
Then you do not have to
Stand in the line
To see God.

22324

Alas, we seek
The mind-clouds
And not
The heart-sunshine.

22325

The divine in me
Sincerely wants
To understand.

22326

The human in me
Constantly wants
To be understood.

22327

God erases
Our life-blunders
When we unmistakably become
Streaming heart-tears.

22328

My prayers
Are the silver tears
Of my heart.

22329

My meditations
Are the golden smiles
Of my soul.

22330

If you think you are bold enough
To disown God,
Then rest assured
That God is wise enough
To claim you
To be His own, very own.

22331

The mind-compromise
Is founded upon
Unspeakable insincerity.

22332

The heart-promise
Is founded upon
Unimaginable sincerity.

22333

Temptation takes us away —
Far, very far —
From our God-oneness-recreation.

22334

May each heart
Place at God’s Feet
A billion tears.

22335

May each life
Offer a billion smiles
To God’s Eye.

22336

Each smile of my Master
Immediately carries me —
My life and my all —
To a higher goal.

22337

No mind can eclipse
Our heart-vision-sun,
For it is God-Infinity’s Breath.

22338

Today’s fallen souls
Can not only become
Tomorrow’s golden souls,
But also reach
Unimaginable goals.

22339

He who embraces pride
Is a disgrace
To his divinity-flooded soul.

22340

He who loves his heart-temple
Is a true worshipper
Of God.

22341

My God-obedience
Is my forward march
To a new horizon.

22342

A sincere seeker
Does not need any direction
To arrive at God’s Home.

22343

I came into the world
To spread my Lord’s Sunshine-Smile
Throughout the length and breadth
Of the world.

22344

My ignorance-night never says,
“I am sorry.”
My wisdom-light ever says,
“My Lord is my All.”

22345

Every day
My Lord Supreme
Inspires me to sprint
To my God-realisation-destination.

22346

God and I
Have come to an understanding:
Every day His Compassion-Smiles
Shall feed my heart
And
Every day my devotion-tears
Shall feed His Heart.

22347

My Lord,
May I make a suggestion?
Can You be strict with the world,
Your creation?
“My child,
I gladly accept your suggestion,
And I am starting with you,
Here and now!”

22348

Today’s fiasco:
I invited my Beloved Supreme
To come to my heart-home.
He accepted my invitation
And He came.
Alas, what was I doing?
I was away,
Dining with my mind
Inside its cave.

22349

No more do I belong to
The turbulent waters of desire-life,
No more.
I am claimed today
By my Absolute Lord Supreme
To be His own, very own.

22350

Before I left Heaven,
I asked my Beloved Supreme
For a smile.
He granted my desire.
Before I leave earth,
I shall ask Mother Earth
To give me a smile.
I do hope she will bless me with a smile
Instead of heart-rending tears.

22351

My Lord wants to give me
A dual citizenship,
Here on earth and there in Heaven.
He just needs from me
A sleepless devotion for Him.

22352

No more depression-frustration-frowns,
No more!
I am now drinking deep
The Nectar-Delight
From the Heart
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme.

22353

Self-doubt
Is
Irreparable mind-damage.

22354

To live in the mind
Is to live in the fog
Of insincerity.

22355

Expectation-frustration
Is another name
For the desire-life.

22356

The Golden Flute
Is beckoning you.
Do not remain attached
To the past.

22357

Morning prayer
Offers us a bouquet
Of golden opportunities.

22358

My Lord,
Do liberate me
From taut bundles
Of insecurity.

22359

Unlike human doctors,
God cures the patients
With unseen medicine.

22360

I have thrown
My doubting mind
Into my soul-bonfire.

22361

Heart-prayers
Fly
In a cloudless sky.

22362

Sincerity
Always remains
Irreversible.

22363

God never asks us
To stop
Before we reach
The top.

22364

It is our fearful mind
That is responsible
For our unfortunate defeat.

22365

My Lord,
Will there be a time
When I will be
Your true disciple?

22366

It seems that the world’s
Prayer-life
Is unspeakably impoverished.

22367

My God-surrender
Is the end
Of all my pain.

22368

No more shall I allow
My mind
To chase my heart.

22369

Surrendering
Is becoming
And vice versa.

22370

What delights me most?
My constant self-offering
To God’s Will.

22371

Every day I pray to God
To give me the capacity
To dive into
His unhorizoned Heart.

22372

Every day
God teaches my heart
A new song of hope.

22373

Every day
God wants to come and see me
At the very foot
Of my life-patience-tree.

22374

Today’s dedication
Can destroy
Yesterday’s imperfections.

22375

Every day
My heart sings
A God-gratitude-song.

22376

Man is
An unending song
Of hope.

22377

The song
Of the morning eye
Is beautiful.

22378

The dance
Of the evening heart
Is peaceful.

22379

Only he
Who loves God sincerely
Can obey Him.

22380

Nobody
Is
Frustration-proof.

22381

Not intention
But action
Is what we need.

22382

True God-faith
Knows no delay.

22383

God-obedience
Defies
The strength of lethargy.

22384

Self-giving
Means
Heart-enlargement.

22385

Do not welcome
Evil gossip
Anytime, anywhere.

22386

Every day,
At least for fifteen minutes,
Focus on your own
Life-perfection.

22387

Every day
I take a dip
In my soul’s ecstasy-sea.

22388

Meditation means
Peace-invocation
And
Peace-preservation.

22389

The silence of the heart
Can easily steady
The mind’s ups and downs.

22390

Never allow your confidence
To be caught
By the chains of self-doubt.

22391

Each life has to be
A constantly self-giving tree.

22392

Devotion is at once
Mind-illumination
And
Heart-transformation.

22393

My God-devotion
Enables me to live
In a oneness-love-world.

22394

O my heart,
Illumine the world
With your smile
Before the mind attacks me
With all its bitterness.

22395

No limitations can be
Our unavoidable
Or unchangeable fate.

22396

My prayer-tears
Come from
My soul’s luminosity.

22397

Any good thought
Will have a beautiful
And fragrant future.

22398

The power of love
Never dominates.
It only illuminates.

22399

Unlike the heart-elevator,
The mind-elevator
Only goes down.

22400

Alas, we do not know
Why we enjoy driving through
The mind’s tunnel.

22401

Each man
Has his own philosophy
On how to better the world.

22402

In the inner world,
I live and look.
In the outer world,
I look and live.

22403

Service is needed
Only from those who live
In the world of humility.

22404

Do not pronounce any judgement
Beforehand —
Wait for the finals.

22405

To live on earth
Is to always
Grow, glow and flow.

22406

Our tears will smile
Only when we live
For God’s sake.

22407

Another name
For trust
Is happiness.

22408

God wants us to be
Active
And not remain
Captive.

22409

When we soulfully pray to God,
His Compassion multiplies
By the second.

22410

Every morning
God’s Compassion-Eye
Cradles my heart.

22411

Thought whispers.
Action thunders.

22412

O my bleeding heart,
Smile.
You will be able
To steal God’s Heart.

22413

How I wish I could
All the time
Live the life of anonymity.

22414

A pure heart
Can easily be
Dauntless.

22415

May my entire existence
Be found
In the armour of love.

22416

When we are self-giving,
God helps us fight
Against ignorance-night
Before it starts.

22417

To follow
The crowd
Is to miss
The destination.

22418

Quite often
Imagination carries
Wisdom-light.

22419

I strongly feel
That before long
My broken heart will be mended
By my Lord Beloved Supreme.

22420

Heart-beauty-flower
Never withers.

22421

When I urgently need
God’s Advice,
God never delays.

22422

May my feeble prayers
Help mankind
In some small way.

22423

My aspiration-heart sings
Far above
My body-bondage.

22424

Impossibility is a wall
That can be shattered
Into pieces.

22425

When it comes to perfection,
Everybody is ignorant.

22426

God does not mind
When we ask Him questions,
But He does mind
When we do not use His Answers.

22427

When I do God’s work
Cheerfully,
God sings my victory-songs
Ceaselessly.

22428

God’s Compassion
Can erase
All my lifelong blunders.

22429

Help the world bountifully,
But not foolishly.

22430

My Lord,
How can I serve You?
“My child,
Love yourself first;
Then you will be able to serve Me.”

22431

The mind is
So cruel.
The heart is
A perfect jewel.

22432

God is attracted by
My climbing smiles.

22433

My sorrowful smile
Shatters
God’s Heart.

22434

My self-giving smile
Feeds God.

22435

Bend your knees
To kiss the feet of the good,
And not of the great.

22436

I collect the dust of goodness
And ignore
The palace of greatness.

22437

My heart-shrine is not private.
It is for all to see
And receive inspiration.

22438

Self-pity
Is nothing but
Uselessness.

22439

Every day
I see my life blossoming
In my devotion-heart-garden.

22440

Alas,
Why do I not allow my Lord
To rule my life
With His Compassion-descending Rain?

22441

Never surrender
To the mind’s
Narrow bondage-limits.

22442

The heart blossoms
The moment self-offering
Begins.

22443

I shall never allow my life
To be carried away
By my unaspiring mind.

22444

The mind suffers
Quite often
From progress-paralysis.

22445

Every seeker
Paints God
With his devotion-awareness.

22446

An aspiration-heart
Can challenge
All outer obstacles.

22447

He who aspires
Builds his life
On God-love-foundation.

22448

May my God-oneness-heart
Overrule my mind
Every time.

22449

Every morning
God wants me to wake up
And run and run with my heart
To the Golden Shore.

22450

God always wants me
To be on a team
And not to enjoy
My solo acts.

22451

When my Lord
Is angry with me,
His Eye whips
My entire being.

22452

Alas, we do nothing for God
Every day,
Yet we expect
God’s undivided attention.

22453

God wants us
Every day
To have the natural approach to Him:
A God-loving heart.

22454

Patience and speed
Determine
Our destination-home.

22455

God wants us
To run our fastest
To His ever-blossoming Heart.

22456

My obedience loves
Only one thing:
God’s Authority.

22457

If we are not aware of
God’s Presence inside our heart,
How can we make any progress?

22458

To see God’s Eye
Is
To worship God’s Feet.

22459

God wants me
At every moment
To be in breathless prayer.

22460

When I am a broken heart,
I see God’s Tears
Within my heart
And around my life.

22461

God always wants me
To walk along
His Heart-mapped Path.

22462

The insatiable, voracious vital
Is
The culprit number one.

22463

Frustration
Makes us sink into
An unfathomable sea.

22464

My tiniest progress-step
Makes my Lord
Unimaginably happy.

22465

Even the willingness of an ant
God adds
To our world-transformation.

22466

A God-chosen hero
Is God’s
Perfection-instrument.

22467

Every morning
God wants us to sweep devotedly
The path of the heart.

22468

The golden days of God-worship
Have Eternity
As their breath.

22469

We must never allow anything undivine
To sink
Our aspiration-heart-boat.

22470

I always challenge myself
To undertake
A new Godward expedition.

22471

Desire-thoughts
We must not only conquer
But destroy.

22472

God keeps
His Compassion-Store open
Twenty-four hours a day.

22473

Our happiness
Gladdens and charms God
More than anything else.

22474

Faith
Does not believe in
Impossibility.

22475

God expects us to use
Our eagerness-heart-speed
To arrive
At His Golden Gate.

22476

Every day
God feeds the whispers
Of our heart.

22477

The mind enjoys riding
Slowly
The desire-train.

22478

The heart enjoys flying
Most speedily
The aspiration-aeroplane.

22479

At every moment
Earth needs
Heaven’s Ecstasy-Breath.

22480

God does not mind
If I do not thank Him.
God does not mind
If I do not think of Him.
But God does mind
When I am not pleased
With myself.

22481

If we do not strive hard,
How can we ever wake up
From ignorance-sleep?

22482

God’s Footfalls
Are
My heartbeat-songs.

22483

When I inhale the fragrance
Of my obedience-heart-flower,
My life-boat sails
Faster than the fastest.

22484

There is a special way
To thank God,
And that way is
To keep myself always happy.

22485

May my heart-vessel
Be full to the brim
With God-gratitude.

22486

Each and every seeker
Must immigrate
To Infinity’s Peace-Land.

22487

God will tell us
His Life-Story
In His own Way
If we have patience infinite.

22488

The theories of the mind
Never interest God.

22489

The practice of the heart
God treasures.

22490

God’s Forgiveness-list
Has neither beginning
Nor end.

22491

God gives us
Repeated chances
To satisfy Him.

22492

I must surrender myself
To God’s Will
So that I can be at the beck and call
Of His sweet Will
Entirely.

22493

I came into the world
To fulfil my Lord’s Dreams
From dawn to dusk.

22494

He who disappoints God’s Will
Will eventually become
A veritable beggar
In the world of spirituality.

22495

Man has
Fearful questions.
God has
Blessingful Answers.

22496

A broken heart
Is not God’s failure
But God’s immediate concern.

22497

An ego-absence-life
Is
A God-Presence-smile.

22498

To lose faith in God
Is to suffer
An irrevocable loss.

22499

To pray
Is the birthright
Of my life.

22500

To meditate
Is the birthright
Of my heart.

22501

In the morning
I self-givingly accompany
My soul-sun.

22502

In the evening
I soulfully accompany
My heart-moon.

22503

O my mind,
Never try to be on
The Olympian pride-height.
Your failure will be
Most deplorable.

22504

God appreciates
Each and every heart-temple
And raises it
On His Shoulders.

22505

The devotion-tearless eyes
Will never be able to near
God’s Heart-Palace.

22506

Alas, the disobedience-mind
And the obedience-heart
Live side by side.

22507

I keep my Lord’s Compassion-Eye
Nearer than
My own heartbeat.

22508

A single surrender-breath
Can conquer
God’s Heart of Infinity.

22509

Only the doubt-free minds
Can expedite
Humanity’s progress.

22510

No matter in which form
Disobedience comes to us,
We must immediately shun it.

22511

Each time my heart
Sheds tears of gratitude,
God blessingfully offers
His thunderous applause.

22512

Only a sweetness-fragrance-heart
Is allowed to hoist
God’s Heart-Banner.

22513

A oneness-heart
Is
The strongest criticism-destroyer.

22514

An indulgence-life
Needs only one thing:
A stark will-power.

22515

God asks
Only the world-peace-lovers
To strike as hard as possible
His own Peace-Bell.

22516

On the tongue of my life
Is always
God-surrender-joy.

22517

My devotion-heart loves to live
Only at one place:
God’s Feet.

22518

I do not live
In the world of an
Uncertain ‘maybe’.

22519

I live only
In the world of a
Determined ‘must’.

22520

Each desire-thought
Chokes our spiritual
Life-breath.

22521

There was a time
When I blindly obeyed
My mind’s orders.

22522

God’s Compassion-Call
Arouses my mind,
Awakens my heart
And
Liberates my life.

22523

God wants us to write to Him
Every day
In letters of heart-tears.

22524

A faith-heart
Means
An invalid mind.

22525

God’s Compassion-Eye
Every day blesses me
With an iron
God-manifestation-will.

22526

Alas, every day
My mind erases the Footprints
Of my Beloved Supreme.

22527

Our mind-hesitation
Is the cause of our
God-fulfilment-promise-failure.

22528

God’s Compassion-Eye
Never wants any human being
To depart.

22529

Each God-thought increases
The brightness of the road
That leads to God’s Palace.

22530

Alas, our willingness-heart
Quite often loses
To our lethargy-body.

22531

God’s two Arms
Are eagerly waiting
For our earliest return
To His Heart-Home.

22532

My desire knows
How to shout.

22533

My aspiration knows
How to whisper.

22534

Our God-gratitude-heart only
Knows how to wrap
Our God-sweetness-memories.

22535

Keep loving
The Eternity’s great Unknown
To be completely satisfied.

22536

God feels miserable
When He sees
Our disappointment-life-tears.

22537

Each and every seeker
Must continue to work on
God’s full manifestation on earth.

22538

I pray to God to give me
Only one thing:
A flaming eagerness-heart.

22539

Only a self-giving man
Can enjoy devouring
God’s infinite Light and Delight.

22540

Patience-flowers
Live longer
Than any other flowers.

22541

Every mind-election
Is empty
Of perfection.

22542

My heart-melodies
My Lord transforms
Into His own Symphonies.

22543

Expectation
Tortures us.

22544

Hope
Gladdens us.

22545

A oneness-heart
Is the pride
Of Infinity.

22546

A heart without faith
Is a life
Without safety.

22547

If we do not have faith in God,
Then an express train of fear
Will near us and destroy us.

22548

My soulful smile energises
My own heart
To fulfil God’s Dream.

22549

Disbelief
Is the most powerful weapon
To destroy
A goodness-life and oneness-heart.

22550

Only God’s Compassion-flooded Eye
Can ever mend
My broken heart.

22551

God is always eager
To bind us
With His two claiming Hands.

22552

Without a purity-sunrise-heart,
We cannot make real progress
In our spiritual life.

22553

Each time we make
Even an iota of progress,
We brighten God’s Face.

22554

A devotion-heart knows
Where God is
And also how to bind Him.

22555

God’s Compassion-Eye
And Affection-Breath
Know no sleep.

22556

You do not have to seek God
In the farthest end of the world.
His Presence is nearer than the nearest.
Just develop a devotion-heart.

22557

A day without aspiration
Is
A failure-day.

22558

Heaven offers me
Its brightest smile
When I sing
God-surrender-songs.

22559

When we love God
For God’s sake,
Immortality embraces
Our lives.

22560

God-obedience-road
Is fed by
God’s constant Smile.

22561

We must break down
The iron resistance-gate
Of the desiring mind.

22562

The mind-wanderer
Enjoys wandering
Instead of loving
The beauty of peace.

22563

The desire-mind
Will never be invited
By the flaming heart.

22564

The desire-life
Is an empty shore
And an empty echo.

22565

Lethargy-sleep
Is the uselessness
Of nothingness.

22566

A life of surrender
Is inseparable from
A life of faith.

22567

Our Lord opens our heart-eye
To the ever-blossoming
Inner world.

22568

Our progress-life
Is sumptuously fed
By our inner cries.

22569

We can have throbbing
Heart-joys
From our fully God-surrendered
Life.

22570

If we are not consciously
And sleeplessly aware
Of our divine life,
Our Goal will slip
In and out of sight.

22571

My meditation-heart
Is frequented by
Silence and peace.

22572

A heart of constant
God-surrender
Is timeless and deathless.

22573

If we want to see God,
There is only one way:
The sunlit path of faith.

22574

In the garden of the heart
We are apt to hear
God’s Whisper.

22575

A heart of devotion
Can fly
In ecstasy-skies.

22576

God loves to watch
Our sailing
Peace-dream-boat.

22577

Desire-memories
Are not only unhealthy
But also dangerous.

22578

We must not forget
That God the Heart
And God the Eye
Always watch over
Our aspiration-heart.

22579

The Power of God
Tells us:
“Go forward!”

22580

The Love of God
Tells us:
“Come in!”

22581

The Light of God
Tells us:
“Stay where you are,
For that is the right place.”

22582

Yesterday
God was my Source.

22583

Today
God is my Destination.

22584

Strive to be a perfect
God-slave
And not a self-styled
Master.

22585

A true disciple
Has to be eager
Both to learn
And unlearn.

22586

My prayers
Prepare my life
To receive.

22587

My meditation
Prepares my heart
To give.

22588

Wherever I stand,
God tells me that
It is His Holy Land.

22589

I thank God
For each
Aspiration-day.

22590

God thanks me
For each
Dedication-day.

22591

Erase
Life’s blunders
With determination.

22592

Embrace
Life’s victories
With tremendous enthusiasm.

22593

Everything in my life
Originated in God,
Specially my God-gratitude-heart.

22594

Problems appear
When we are
Unmindful.

22595

Problems disappear
When we are
Godful.

22596

I love God
Because He is
Indispensable.

22597

God loves me
Because I am
Reliable.

22598

The journey without
Begins with
Thunder-power.

22599

The journey within
Begins with
Flute-sweetness.

22600

Our life-boat
Can never capsize
If we value
Our heart’s sunrise.

22601

A man of unconditional surrender
Is
God’s favourite guest.

22602

Long before the inner sun rises,
We must prepare ourselves
With implicit faith in God.

22603

The very touch
Of God’s Feet
Thrills my heart.

22604

A gratitude-heart
Is
God’s real pride.

22605

A God-loving heart
Must not repeat
God-displeasing deeds.

22606

My ego-life
I must obliterate
As quickly as possible.

22607

No opportunity
Can ever be
Insignificant.

22608

An unconditional life
Is not the invention
Of imagination.

22609

The constant fulfilment
Of God’s Will only
Interests my heart.

22610

Every day
I am appalled
At the lack of aspiration
Of my mind.

22611

Alas,
Problems drag on and on.
There is no way
To escape.

22612

Self-transcendence
Is quite common
In God-surrender-land.

22613

The mind
Always vetoes the opinions
Of the heart.

22614

Flexibility
Is of paramount importance
In our spiritual life.

22615

To have a glance
From God’s Eye
Is, indeed,
A rare moment of happiness.

22616

At every moment
We must exercise our divine will
To crack down on
Cynics and critics.

22617

Alas,
Every day
We forget to destroy
Our mind’s desire-jungles.

22618

Our wisdom-light
Has a very deep connection
With God’s Eye.

22619

We must never allow
Our enthusiasm-energy
To dwindle.

22620

O my life,
Never be near
The emotional whirlpool.

22621

The true spiritual life
Must never be kept
On hold.

22622

The mind loves
Complication,
While the heart loves
Unification.

22623

I know that
There shall come a time
When God’s Compassion-Eye
Shall melt
My age-long stone-heartedness.

22624

The human life
Is an uncontrollable surge
Of expectation.

22625

When we make a complaint to God
Against our mind,
Our complaint is definitely valid.

22626

Be careful of the mind,
For its supplies
Are full of thought-disease.

22627

My Lord,
When I lose my faith in You,
Please illumine me
With a crashing blow.

22628

A self-giving life
Has to be lionised
Everywhere.

22629

My soul asks my heart
Never to miss
God’s Illumination-Courses.

22630

Alas, what shall I do
With my spiritual life?
It is frustratingly slow.

22631

My Lord tells me
That my gratitude-heart-tears
Are by far the best tears.

22632

We must throw
All our self-interest
Into the dust
To run the fastest
In the spiritual life.

22633

God wants my heart
To take
Love, devotion and surrender-
Violin lessons.

22634

May my heart’s
Aspiration-sun
Never set.

22635

Each heart
Is
A God-delight-song.

22636

The outer beauty
Dies.
The inner beauty
Prevails.

22637

O seeker,
Do not allow
Even an iota of desire
To enter into your mind.

22638

Desires
Always love
To come in large crowds.

22639

God loves
To sing, play and dance
In our Heavenly dreams.

22640

God does not want us to race
To see His Face.
He wants us to run
Slowly, steadily and self-givingly
Towards Him.

22641

I love littleness.
Indeed,
This is a true mystery
To God.

22642

God loves Infinity.
Indeed,
This is a total mystery
To me.

22643

If you live all the time
In the mind,
You are bound to bathe
In frustration-tears.

22644

O my heart,
Never listen to my mind!
It always cancels
God-appointments.

22645

A seeker’s devotion-heart
Can easily catch
God’s Heart.

22646

An intense God-search
Is of paramount importance
To arrive at
God’s Heart-Door.

22647

O my mind,
Untie your attachment-knots.

22648

God wants
My love for Him
To be sacred
And not secret.

22649

My Lord,
Do help me to live
In my devotion-delight-heart.

22650

Humanity’s
Aspiration-heart-lamp,
Alas,
Still remains unlit.

22651

When I surrender my all
To God,
He tells me
That I shall be
His proudest pride.

22652

My Lord’s Blessing-Touch
Shall forever grow and glow
Inside my heart.

22653

My Lord,
Your Compassion-Eye
Is dear to my inspiration-life,
Dearer to my aspiration-heart
And
Dearest to my illumination-soul.

22654

The partition-loving mind
Is always
Rebellious.

22655

We must deport
All our doubts
To the land of nowhere.

22656

Loneliness-isolation
Can never give us
Any real satisfaction.

22657

May my entire life
Become a dauntless
God-faith-shield.

22658

Frustration-night
Can easily be conquered
With detachment-light.

22659

God can do
Sublime things for us
With our willingness-heart.

22660

God always asks us
To feel free to ask Him
All the questions that we have.
He will answer all our questions,
Whether it satisfies us or not.

22661

God’s Compassion-Feet
Every day clasp
My surrender-heart.

22662

God’s Concern
Is something
That nobody can ever lose.

22663

How beautiful,
How peaceful,
How fruitful
Is everything about God.

22664

He who is afraid of loving God
More and more
Is, indeed, a stark fool.

22665

Our ignorance-surrender
Is the best gift
We can offer God.

22666

A God-loving heart
Can easily and freely
Blend with all.

22667

The mind
Wants to tell and hear
Again and again
Its useless stories.

22668

Readiness and willingness
Are twin brothers
For quickest God-manifestation
On earth.

22669

God Himself
Amplifies
All my heart-cries.

22670

Enthusiasm
Can proudly carry our hearts
To new heights of delight.

22671

May God’s Mind
And my mind
Constantly enjoy
Our mutual trust.

22672

May God’s Heart
And my heart
Sleeplessly enjoy
Our mutual affection.

22673

May God’s Life
And my life
Breathlessly enjoy
Our mutual attention.

22674

May God and I
Triumphantly enjoy
Our mutual interdependence.

22675

What am I doing?
I am growing and strengthening
In my heart-garden
My God-love-tree.

22676

Before
I asked God
To do many things
For me.

22677

Now
I ask God
To give me at least one thing
To do for Him.

22678

God’s Compassion-Eye-injection
Every day
I need.

22679

I can clearly see
That my Lord’s Hands
Are reaching down
Fast, very fast,
To clasp my bleeding heart.

22680

God’s constant Victory
Is my sleepless
And breathless desire.

22681

How can I idle away
A single moment,
When I have literally
Millions of things to do
For my Beloved Supreme?

22682

I am determined
To fill my life
With God-magnetism.

22683

I need
Self-effacement
With my God-devotion.

22684

God’s ultimate challenge
To man:
“Can you climb up,
My children?”

22685

Man’s ultimate challenge
To God:
“Can You climb down
And stay with us forever?”

22686

My soul has thrust upon me
A very special task:
I must discover God
In everybody and everything.

22687

God-worthiness
God gives us;
We cannot acquire it.

22688

True, I am not
God’s dearest friend,
But I claim to be
God’s faithful slave.

22689

As long as the creation lasts,
Human attachment
Will move side by side
With divine attachment.

22690

God-worship
Is
An unparalleled ecstasy.

22691

The desiring mind
Is nothing short of
The worst possible tyranny.

22692

To have a God-oneness-heart,
We need
A stillness-mind.

22693

May my aspiration-heart
Every day be drenched
With my God-longing tears.

22694

Self-giving love
Is always
Uncommon.

22695

A God-devotion-heart
Is bound to enjoy
An exquisite love.

22696

Our success-progress-life
Entirely depends on
God’s Grace.

22697

God wants us to be
Self-giving seekers.
Alas, we have become
Self-congratulating
And self-adulating seekers
Instead.

22698

If I cry and weep,
God will definitely disperse
All my mind’s
Darkness-clouds.

22699

My heart’s
Perpetual prayer-cry:
My Lord,
Illumine my mind,
Protect my life,
Feed my heart.

22700

God tells us
That His big Ears
Are only for
Our pure heart-prayers.

22701

I am extremely happy
That finally my mind,
My vital and my body
Are taking
The God-obedience-course.

22702

The unaspiring mind
Is always scattering
Undivine thoughts
All over the world.

22703

The aspiring heart
Spreads God-Beauty
And God-Fragrance
Everywhere.

22704

Selflessness not only diminishes
But also extinguishes
Our human ego-pride.

22705

Eagerness immediately
Increases the speed
Of our heart’s aspiration-journey.

22706

How I wish,
Like my heart,
My mind could also hear
The early morning God-songs.

22707

My gratitude-heart-tears
Are
My only belongings.

22708

Soulfulness
And the heart
Are intimate friends.

22709

I am determined
To strike against
My autocrat-mind-boss.

22710

My heart
Is made of my Lord’s
Concern-Breath.

22711

I begin my meditation
After I have sung
My heart-songs.

22712

If we want to make
The fastest progress,
Then we must prevent the mind
From drifting away
From our prayers and meditations.

22713

We must feed
Our soaring aspiration
With our heart-tears.

22714

During our meditation,
There is an unseen friend
Who is helping and guiding us:
Our soul.

22715

Every day I play
On my heart-flute
For my inspiring and illumining soul.

22716

Cheerfulness
Is the strongest power
That can end
Our despair-heart.

22717

Gratitude
Sweetens and deepens
Our heart.

22718

God tells me
My road is clear
Because my life has become
A moment-to-moment prayer.

22719

Spiritual progress
Thrives
On sincerity-tears.

22720

If we really want to make
The fastest progress,
Then our self-confidence
Must surrender
To our God-reliance.

22721

Do not slay your enemy,
But pray for your enemy
So that we can have
A world of infinite peace.

22722

Insecurity
Is nothing but
A perverted power.

22723

Our aspiration-heart blooms
When our life sees beauty
All around.

22724

Our meditation flies
With our soul-bird
In Infinity’s Sky.

22725

At every moment
We must feel that
It is an urgent necessity
To love and please God
In His own Way.

22726

Each prayer
Purifies
Our mind.

22727

Each meditation
Intensifies
Our heart.

22728

Each dedication
Unites
Our heart with God.

22729

I start my day
With my heart-intensity-tears
For God.

22730

Every day
My soul is eager
To import God’s Love
And God’s Compassion
Into my mind.

22731

Every day
I export my impurity-mind
To the land of nowhere.

22732

My hesitation-mind says:
“Where and how?”

22733

My dedication-heart says:
“Here and now!”

22734

Finally
I am putting an end
To my ignorance-persistence-mind.

22735

Our ignorance-mind
Does not know
That every day we are wasting
Our Lord’s most precious Time.

22736

Today’s disobedience-drop
Can tomorrow grow into
A destruction-sea.

22737

God never responds
To my speeches,
But He immediately responds
To my dedication.

22738

Do not look around.
Look within
To find your own divinity.

22739

God does not believe
In followers.
He believes only
In partners.

22740

Each aspiration-cry
Is a bridge
Between man’s heart
And God’s Heart.

22741

If you want to believe,
Do not beg your mind.
Strike your mind!

22742

Our insecurity
Is
Our false friend.

22743

Our love of God
Is not a mind-story
But a heart-song.

22744

True spirituality
Defies
Insoluble problems.

22745

If we do not have
The eager participation
Of each and every human being,
Then we can never manifest God
In God’s own Way.

22746

Do not feed
Your disobedience-ant-mind.
It will soon become
An elephant-destruction.

22747

My Lord Supreme
Works long, very long hours,
Only to make me happy
And keep me happy.

22748

An eagerness-heart
Every day
Is invited by God Himself
To dine with Him
At His Heart-Palace.

22749

We must become
Our gratitude-heart-tears
If we want to be illumined
By our inner sun.

22750

Be devoted.
Be faithful.
God is always right!

22751

I shall not wait for
Any more incarnations.
In this lifetime,
I shall accomplish my task:
I shall unconditionally love God
And manifest God fully.

22752

He who betrays
God’s Confidence in him
Can never be on the human level.

22753

O seeker,
Be farther than the farthest
From the expectation-trap.

22754

Everything is sweet, sweeter
And sweetest
When my Master knows
What I am doing.

22755

I am happy
Only when my Master
Does all the planning for me.

22756

Let me not forget
That at every moment
My Lord’s Compassion-Eye
Is cradling my heart,
My mind, my vital and my body.

22757

I must constantly send my Lord
Invitation letters
Until He comes to visit my heart.

22758

My God-oneness
Is the only fulness
In my life.

22759

My Lord,
I have planted devotion-plants
All around me
For Your blessingful Arrival.

22760

The God-poets
Need
No editor.

22761

May my aspiration
Be
Mountain-high.

22762

May my dedication
Be
Fountain-pure.

22763

Every morning
My Lord breaks down
My ignorance-walls.

22764

Every evening,
Alas,
I build my ignorance-walls
Anew.

22765

I am ready.
Everything of mine is ready.
But where are You, where,
My Lord Supreme?

22766

Every day
I eagerly look
For one thing:
My God-oneness.

22767

God does not need anybody.
Yet He makes all human beings feel
That they are indispensable.

22768

If I know
That God does not get joy
From my presence,
Why do I not dare
To change my life?

22769

I keep
My surrender-fire burning
Only for my Lord Beloved Supreme.

22770

My Lord,
Your Compassion
Is my heart’s only dream
And my life’s only reality.

22771

My Lord, I want You,
Only You,
And nobody else
To be the Captain
Of my life-boat.

22772

The mind does not want
To accept the truth
That the whole world
Has been growing
In all the wrong directions.

22773

Unless and until I get God
To be the Pilot
Of my life-boat,
I shall never be able to arrive
At the Golden Shore.

22774

May my heart
Breathe ceaselessly
In God’s Infinity.

22775

May each and every soul
Swim and swim
In God-oneness-sea.

22776

Like my soul,
My heart also
Is dining
With God-closeness.

22777

To please God,
There is only one thing essential:
Bow and bow to God’s
Light and Delight-flooded Throne.

22778

Faith throws
Unreal fear
To the winds.

22779

The mind can only afford
To have
A tiny thought-apartment.

22780

The heart can afford
To have
A royal palace.

22781

The heart lives
On God’s Sweetness
And Fondness.

22782

O seeker,
Never be caught
By your outer possessions.

22783

O seeker,
A possession-renunciation-life
Can alone please you.

22784

The aspiration-sunshine
Of the heart
Will always succeed.

22785

A true aspiration-heart
Can never be affected
By the mind’s stormy weather.

22786

God the Guest
Eagerly waits for
An invitation
From my aspiration.

22787

Everything in me
Longs to embrace
God-oneness-horizon.

22788

The mind-dictator
Wants to rule the whole world
With an iron fist.

22789

The God-lover-heart
Wants to illumine the world
For the perfect manifestation of God
On earth.

22790

A God-loving life
Becomes
A God-pleasing heart.

22791

O my positive thoughts,
Can you not sing and dance
Through my mind?

22792

My soul’s smile
Brightens my life.

22793

My heart’s cries
Enlighten my life.

22794

Finally
God has allowed me
To be a permanent resident
In His Heart-Home.

22795

The mind-road
Is always dark and frightening
Because it has no
Love-devotion-surrender-lamps.

22796

The God-discovery-road
Is at once
The fragrance of ancient times
And
The beauty of the modern time.

22797

The invisible God
Becomes visible
When He sees
A heart of purity.

22798

God treasures
And embraces
Our purity-sunrise-heart.

22799

A day without aspiration
Is, indeed,
A crawling day.

22800

God is impressed
Only when we sing
In all sincerity
Our God-surrender-song.

22801

When I stop praying,
My life becomes
A torturing nightmare.

22802

My Lord tells me point-blank
That my undisciplined life
Will be the cause of my downfall.

22803

I long to be a stranger
To all world conspiracies
And controversies.

22804

The world of fiction
Has to be turned into
A realm of poetry.

22805

Smile day and night:
You will be able to wrestle
With all your foes.

22806

God’s Heart
Cradles
My crying heart.

22807

God’s Eye
Cradles
My serving life.

22808

If we want to make
The fastest progress,
Then with utter abandon
We must give ourselves
To God.

22809

Each moment
Is a new Promise-fulfilment-opportunity.

22810

I do not know
Why I stand so far away
From the door of God’s Will.

22811

We all enjoy earth-pleasure,
Denying God’s
Heaven-Treasure.

22812

Day and night
We race around
Life’s expectation-track.

22813

With my aspiration-heart
I try to draw every day
Nearer and nearer
To God’s blessingful Heartbeat.

22814

No atom
Is empty of
God’s Will.

22815

God’s Will
Is always ready
To reveal itself
To mankind.

22816

My bleeding heart
Is held by God Himself
As a most sacred treasure.

22817

Continue with your prayers
And meditations
Until God is fully satisfied.

22818

When we pray soulfully,
The outer world
Does not dare to frighten us.

22819

When we meditate sleeplessly,
The inner world
Does not dare to frighten us.

22820

When we smile at God,
We give God the opportunity
To sing and play with us.

22821

Without inner freedom
No one can spiritually grow,
And this inner freedom is
Constant oneness with God’s Will.

22822

No God-service
Can ever be too great.

22823

There is God-Speed
In everything.

22824

The mind
Is apt to speculate foolishly
About peace and God.

22825

There can be nothing
Beyond the domain of
God’s ultimate Forgiveness.

22826

Negativity
Knows how to paralyse
Our God-aspiration.

22827

My obedience-heart
Every day
Is beckoned by
God’s blessingful Hands.

22828

Do not allow your life
To be crushed
Under the wheel
Of useless change.

22829

May my heart’s
Happiness-rainbow
Expand and expand.

22830

The bad experiences
Of the mind
And the good experiences
Of the heart
Chase each other.

22831

Ignorance-sea
Is vaster than
We can ever imagine.

22832

There is no end to our heart’s
Possible mistakes,
Alas, alas.

22833

Alas,
There is no end to our mind’s
Impossible blunders.

22834

Alas,
In my heart-temple
I allow God to remain
Unworshipped.

22835

I must shake and wake
My lethargy-body
Quite often.

22836

My heart
Lives
In aspiration-days.

22837

My mind
Lives
In desire-ages.

22838

World-renunciation
Is not
God-satisfaction.

22839

World-acceptance
For world-transformation
Is God-satisfaction.

22840

The mind does not know that
There is something called
The Vision of God.

22841

The mind
Deliberately forgets
To invite God.

22842

The heart
Self-givingly
Invites God.

22843

Every morning
God tells us to embark on Perfection-journey.

22844

No sincere heart
Will take its eyes off
Its Lord’s Forgiveness-Feet.

22845

To arrive at God’s Heart-Palace,
A God-eager heart
Can never be late in anything.

22846

The hunger
Of the desire-land
Is ever-increasing.

22847

My two virtue-trophies,
Patience and perseverance,
I place at my Lord’s Feet.

22848

I please God in two ways:
With my heart’s baby cries
And
With my life’s big smiles.

22849

My gratitude-heart
Has to be sincere
If I want to see
God’s Heart throbbing.

22850

If you want to conceal anything
From God,
Then you are courting
Your failure-life.

22851

Desire monopolises.
Aspiration harmonises.

22852

God does not need
A secret seeker.

22853

God needs
A sacred seeker.

22854

God’s Compassion-Flood
Outlasts everything.

22855

The mind
Thinks that God
Is an unkind boss.

22856

The heart
Feels that God
Is a most reliable slave.

22857

Impossibility
Stands in our way
When we want to understand God.

22858

It is not good to delay
Or expedite
God’s Hour.

22859

God-Touch-Sweetness
I sleeplessly long for.

22860

A self-giving life
Is halfway to Heaven.

22861

The exorbitant pride
Of the mind
Grinds most people down.

22862

Even before you hire the vital
To do any work for God,
The vital becomes tired.

22863

My life has
No protection
Without the Direction
Of God.

22864

Today I pray
So that tomorrow
I shall not despair.

22865

I want to remain alert
Only in the Heart of
My Beloved Supreme.

22866

Just between you and me,
God is impartial,
But He can be partial as well.

22867

How can the doom of night
Attack you
If you remain always
In the bloom of your heart?

22868

God-advisers
Are all-where.

22869

God-listeners
Are nowhere.

22870

God wants us to be punctual
In the beginning and at the end
Of our God-service.
He never wants us to work overtime.

22871

God never minds
If we arrive at His Heart-Palace
Uninvited.

22872

The motto of aspiration
Is inevitability,
And not possibility.

22873

I am a stark fool
If I think that God
Will not be able to erase
All my life’s blunders.

22874

In the aspiration-world
I am one
Among the needy.

22875

In the desire-world
I am one
Among the greedy.

22876

If we are already lovable,
Then God’s Compassion
Will one day make us
Indispensable.

22877

The deeper I dig,
The surer I become.

22878

My mind
Calls it strictness.
My heart
Calls it kindness.

22879

The animal in me
Rages in vain.

22880

The human in me
Ages in vain.

22881

The divine in me
Races and succeeds.

22882

The human in me
Slowly and gradually dies.

22883

The divine in me
Eternally flies.

22884

Devotion-demonstration
Is the height of
A seeker’s stupidity.

22885

Life is the interplay
Of success and failure.

22886

You cannot be
God’s dove
If you are your
Ego-love.

22887

He who loves
Teeming desires
Lives in the kingdom
Of fools.

22888

Surrender succeeds
When everything else
Fails.

22889

Nothing makes sense to me,
Save and except
The dust of God’s Feet.

22890

My Lord,
Do give me the capacity
To offer You
My gratitude-heart
Around the clock.

22891

My Lord,
I need only one Boon from You:
A heart of ceaseless cries.

22892

My cheerful surrender
To God’s Will
Is the only thing
That concerns God.

22893

God is proud of me
Only when I am breathless
At the sound of His Footfalls.

22894

My Lord,
If You really love me,
Then scold me ruthlessly
The moment I disobey You.

22895

I wish to hear
From God
His Life-Stories.

22896

God wishes to hear
From me
My heart-songs.

22897

I have never seen God
Getting really mad,
But I have seen God so often
Really feeling sad.

22898

My Lord, do tell me,
How many more years
Will Your Net need
To catch my heart and my all?

22899

Man the psychiatrist
Has made me really crazy.
I am now longing
For the real psychiatrist:
God the Compassion-Eye.

22900

Mother Earth,
My heart breaks into
Millions of pieces
The moment I think of
Your insufferable agonies.

22901

My God-devotion
Is my sole
Earth-identification.

22902

My God-separation
Is absurdity’s
Strongest illusion.

22903

God wants me
To take from Him every day
Compassion-lessons.

22904

No matter how hard I try,
Ignorance
Still does not leave me.

22905

I vividly see my Lord
In two places:
In my mind-cave
And
In my heart-palace.

22906

God’s Heart
I sleeplessly
Love.

22907

God’s Feet
I breathlessly
Adore.

22908

God forgives me.
Indeed,
This is no news.

22909

God loves me.
Indeed,
This is no news.

22910

God has become me.
Indeed,
This is the news of news.

22911

God-believers and God-lovers
Are God’s
Fondness-cherishers.

22912

When I live
In my heart,
God is my Beloved.

22913

When I live
In my mind,
God is my examiner.

22914

When I live
In my vital,
God is my stranger.

22915

When I live
In my body,
God is my Guardian.

22916

When I live
In my breath,
God is my All.

22917

To make me His server,
God is making me
Strong.

22918

To make me His Friend,
God is making me
Pure.

22919

To make me His Partner,
God is making me
Self-giving.

22920

God wants us
To harmonise our lives.
Alas, we have
Demonised our lives,
Instead.

22921

Within, without,
Constant God-invocation,
My only task.

22922

May my devotion be
Purity itself
To please my Lord Supreme.

22923

The omniscient, omnipotent
And omnipresent God
Wants me to be
His magnificent seeker.

22924

I call Him my Supreme,
But alas, do I ever allow Him
To rule over my life supremely?

22925

Do not condone
But postpone desire-life
Indefinitely.

22926

I am no longer
My body’s
Lethargy-victim.

22927

I am no longer
My vital’s
Aggression-victim.

22928

I am no longer
My mind’s
Suspicion-victim.

22929

I am no longer
My heart’s
Insecurity-victim.

22930

I am no longer
My life’s
God-failure-victim.

22931

My Lord,
Two boons I need from You:
Dedication-boon
And
Manifestation-boon.

22932

My heart aches and throbs
For a fleeting moment
Of God-Company.

22933

Nothing can disturb me
When I am in my heart
And for my Lord Supreme.

22934

Alas,
Why do we allow ourselves
To be haunted
By stark memories of the past?

22935

We fold our hands,
But where is our mind
And, specially,
Where is our heart?

22936

God-separation
Is nothing short of
Self-destruction.

22937

In vain I cry and cry
In the ashes
Of my God-failure-life.

22938

No life is undivine.
Alas, the mind forces us
To see it in that way.

22939

Do not make your life miserable
By judging
The God-success-joy of others.

22940

A true seeker
Can never be tired
Of adoring God, loving God
And serving God.

22941

The mind says
That it has so many things to do.
Therefore,
How can it think of God?

22942

The heart says,
“I have only one thing to do,
And I am doing that
With tremendous success:
My God-service.”

22943

If we cherish
And treasure God,
God definitely gets pleasure.

22944

Nothing can ever equal
My sacred
God-fulfilment-necessity.

22945

We enjoy the expression
Of our mind.
God enjoys the expansion
Of our heart.

22946

My Lord,
May my aspiration-heart
Every morning wake up
With the dawn.

22947

My mind e-mail
Entangles my mind
And my life.

22948

My heart knee-mail
Finds God
And claims God’s Heart.

22949

Every spiritual seeker
Needs tuning every day
For a superb performance.

22950

God loves me
Even if I do not
Care for Him.

22951

Today worship,
Tomorrow become.

22952

God does not believe in
My advice.

22953

God does believe in
My prayers.

22954

God does not enjoy
His Lordship.

22955

God enjoys only
His friendship
And partnership.

22956

Dark days
Eventually surrender
To the path of Light.

22957

God wants you
To count the blessings —
His Blessings.

22958

God will count the problems —
Your problems.

22959

Every time God sees me,
He tells me only one thing:
“My child, we need to talk.”

22960

He was born in a manger.
God made Him
The World-Manager
Plus more.

22961

Not what you know
But whom you know
Is of supreme importance.

22962

Salvation is free,
But you must ask for it.

22963

The mind-story
Quickly informs us.

22964

The heart-song
Slowly transforms us.

22965

Today
We are allowed
To stand.

22966

Tomorrow
We must kneel.

22967

Children
Are afraid of darkness
Without.

22968

Parents
Are afraid of Light
Within.

22969

God’s Message
Never changes.

22970

Our desire-life
Does change.

22971

Not to be
A downright failure,
Always remain
An upright heart.

22972

We cherish
Our nothingness
More than we cherish
Our usefulness.

22973

Our prayers
May rescue us
Temporarily.

22974

Our Lord Supreme
Saves us
Permanently.

22975

God’s Mind
Is
A justice-builder.

22976

God’s Heart
Is
An injustice-demolisher.

22977

Give God
What He rightfully deserves,
And give Him not
What is left over.

22978

Our minds believe in
Credit cards.

22979

Our hearts believe in
Only God-cash.

22980

The human in us
Needs proof
And authenticity.

22981

The divine in us
Needs only service
And practice.

22982

To help others
Is absolutely necessary
To make us taller and deeper
In our inner life.

22983

Inside the mind-darkroom,
Quite often
Negativity broods.

22984

No imperfection
Is ever negligible.

22985

God-happiness we find
Not when we enter
The heart-temple,
Not when we are seated inside
The heart-temple,
But only when we pray and meditate
Inside the heart-temple.

22986

The divine in us
Pays all the bills from the world
For its earth-existence.
It does not owe anything.

22987

O my mind,
God is not on vacation,
And He has not left you
In charge of this world.

22988

Try to love God.
If you do not succeed,
The hostile forces
Will definitely take you back.

22989

When I cry,
I expect God.

22990

When I smile,
God welcomes me.

22991

A single thought of peace
Can make
A world of difference.

22992

The language of the heart
Is the only language
That everybody can understand.

22993

My Lord,
I obey Your Commands,
But give me the capacity
To obey them instantly, soulfully
And self-givingly.

22994

My Lord,
Your leadership in my life
Is my only saviour.

22995

One true thought of God
Is my
Heart-rapture.

22996

There can be no real need
For any human being,
Save and except an urgent need
For God’s Victory.

22997

My heart-piano plays
Only one thing:
God-love-rhapsody.

22998

God the Compassion
Is
Our smooth sailing.

22999

God the Forgiveness
Is
Our safe landing.

23000

Go down on your knees.
God will not only lift you up
But also bless you
With a mighty embrace.
