Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees, part 24

Return to the table of contents

23001

The heart
Is the most sacred reality
In each human being.

23002

May I become
A deep-rooted
God-faith-flower.

23003

What a seeker needs:
An ironclad God-faith.

23004

In human life,
Self-giving
Has no equal.

23005

The faith of my heart
Has finally paralysed
All the doubts of my mind.

23006

This time
God Himself is designing
My life’s road map.

23007

God eagerly waits for
My heart-book publication.

23008

Aspiration
Is
A Heaven-soaring flight.

23009

May my God-devotion-life
Become
A tear-flooded life.

23010

I am becoming
The melodies
Of my heart-violin.

23011

Always
The roaming of the mind
Is nebulous and useless.

23012

My gratitude-heartbeats
Come from
God’s unconditional Love.

23013

Never open a letter
That comes from
The doubting mind.

23014

Meditate on
Your aspiration-flame.
You will win the God-game.

23015

Patience, increasing patience,
Is all we need
To be victorious
In the battlefield of life.

23016

God-bound,
My heart’s God-crying train.

23017

Every morning
God eagerly waits for
My heart-news.

23018

No division-walls
In my heart-territory.

23019

My heart-connection
Is like
An indomitable ocean-flood.

23020

My mind’s failure-night
Shall be illumined
By my heart’s victory-delight.

23021

Meditate on your self-giving heart.
Your life will become
A God-beauty.

23022

A problem-mountain
I was.
A solution-fountain
I now am.

23023

Grace is there,
But who is there
To value it
And receive it?

23024

God-devotion
Means
Problem-building demolition.

23025

The weeping heart
Finds
God’s hiding place.

23026

God-criers
Are
God-winners.

23027

Only one place is safe:
The silence-room
Of my heart.

23028

Ingratitude
Is
A God-failure-life.

23029

The spiritual Teacher
Is the golden bridge
Between God’s Heart
And man’s life.

23030

Expectation
Is
Inevitable frustration.

23031

The mind loves to live
In its tiny ego-bubble.

23032

Sacrifice-delight
Is the captain
Of my heart-boat.

23033

Beautiful
Are my heart-aspiration-cries.

23034

Powerful
Are my life-dedication-smiles.

23035

The confusion-mind
Ultimately surrenders
To the illumination-soul.

23036

My life
Is
God’s Compassion-revelation.

23037

Sorrow flies away
When God-oneness blooms.

23038

The ego
Is
A crowd-entertainer.

23039

Spirituality
Is
A life-and-death decision.

23040

Alas,
I have lost
All my aspiration-years.

23041

God the Unknown
I desire to see.

23042

God the Unknowable
My heart adores.

23043

Each problem
Awakens
My God-aspiring heart.

23044

May my God-devotion
Be far beyond
The reach of time.

23045

My problems
Are
My sleepless followers.

23046

O my mind,
Can you not see
That this life of mine
I have reserved
Only for God?

23047

Earth-life
Is full of
Mountain-tears.

23048

Heaven-life
Is full of
Fountain-cheers.

23049

The doubting mind
Deserves
A death threat.

23050

The mind
Is never short of
Self-doubts.

23051

Everybody thinks
That his is
An under-appreciated life.

23052

Forgiveness
Moves forward.

23053

Gratitude
Moves inward.

23054

Sacrifice
Moves upward.

23055

Every morning
God gives my heart
All the love it needs
For the day.

23056

A God-denying mind
Will be
An embittered failure.

23057

I see the evidence
Of God’s Compassion
In all my actions.

23058

A desiring mind
Knows
What chaos is.

23059

The bizarre outer world
Is the reflection
Of the inner world.

23060

The heart always
Asks the soul
For the next step.

23061

My heart-garden and I
Love each other
And
Live together.

23062

My mind needs
Brighter days.

23063

My heart needs
Better hours.

23064

I need
Purer moments.

23065

I am crying for
God-realisation.

23066

God wants me to cry for
Man-liberation.

23067

When I see my Master smiling,
Every trace of my desire
Disappears.

23068

Forgiveness
Sweetens our hearts
And
Enlightens our minds.

23069

Prophetic words:
This world will be transformed.

23070

The aspiring heart
Knows no stranger.

23071

No more do I enjoy
My desire-mind-storms.

23072

Dauntlessly
All challenges
Have to be conquered.

23073

An unhappy mind
And a frustration-life
Are immediate neighbours.

23074

Every moment
Can be
A God-commitment-promise.

23075

A false statement:
God is preoccupied
With somebody else.

23076

Even God was excited to see
The complete transformation
Of my life.

23077

God-obedience
Means
Enduring peace.

23078

God loves to live
Inside my heart
Only when
I choose to leave
The ignorance-cave.

23079

A silence-mind
Obeys
All God’s Commands.

23080

Desire is desire.
It is all
My imperfection.

23081

Aspiration is aspiration.
It is all
God-satisfaction.

23082

Talk and talk and talk:
Your life shall fail.

23083

Act and act and act:
Your heart shall sail.

23084

The doubting mind
Is
God’s antonym.

23085

The loving heart
Is
God’s synonym.

23086

My heart-sky
Is empty
Of faith-clouds.

23087

I give God
What God wants:
Love.

23088

I give man
What man wants:
Appreciation.

23089

Within I am
A roaring lion.
Without I am
A charming lamb.

23090

Doubt cannot take birth
In my mind
Again.

23091

At times
Destruction is absolutely necessary
For a new creation.

23092

Physically close
He was
To his Master-Lord.

23093

Spiritually far, very far
He was
From his Master-Lord.

23094

The mind
Must be liberated
From the ignorance-torture-prison.

23095

My mind’s eagerness
To please God
Is almost an impossible task.

23096

To my greatest joy,
God keeps my life-breath
Under His very close Supervision.

23097

My mind
Wants to be
An empire-builder.

23098

My heart
Wants to be
A cottage-dweller.

23099

My God-disobedience-breath
Has breathed its last.

23100

Deathless
Is
A God-loyalty-heart.

23101

My heart and I
Always remain beyond,
Far beyond, the reach
Of our miserable mind.

23102

I trust myself only when
I obey my Supreme
Implicitly.

23103

Everybody has a right
To choose
The sunny side of life.

23104

We pray,
God answers,
But we do not value
The answer.

23105

If we do not listen to God
At every moment
With full attention,
God may one day withdraw
His Compassion-Eye.

23106

At every moment
I rededicate myself
To being a server
Of world peace.

23107

The present does not want me.
The future does not want me.
Alas, the past not only wants me
But needs me.

23108

The mind
Does not invite God
When it invites the world.

23109

The heart
Does not invite the world
When it invites God.

23110

Poor God,
Happiness eludes Him
All the time.

23111

I am too slow.
God does not want to wait any more
For my devotion-offerings.

23112

No mind-clouds
Can totally eclipse
Our heart-sun.

23113

Inspiration-seeds
Are available everywhere,
Yet we do not collect them.

23114

Aspiration-flowers
Are available everywhere,
Yet we do not pluck them.

23115

Dedication-trees
Are available everywhere,
Yet we do not utilise them.

23116

There is not a single seeker
Who has never suffered from
The body-vital-mind-collision.

23117

God is going
From door to door
To catch a smile.

23118

I live on
My Master’s
Self-giving smile.

23119

No matter whether I rise or fall,
I came into the world
Only to hear His Call.

23120

Alas, my Lord,
I am so sorry
That I have forgotten
Your Address.
“My child,
I am so happy
That I distinctly remember
Not only your address
But also
Your phone number.”

23121

My meditation means
Heart-expansion
And
God-satisfaction.

23122

In the spiritual life,
When we do not care for progress,
We are forced to run backwards
At top speed.

23123

A computer-mind
Is destined to be
A spiritual failure.

23124

To make the fastest progress,
We desperately need
Grass-green humility.

23125

To make the fastest progress,
We sleeplessly need
A sky-climbing aspiration.

23126

God is
God’s legendary Compassion.

23127

Man is
Man’s momentary gratitude.

23128

God wants me to be really happy.
Therefore, He has destroyed
All my expectation-mind-cages.

23129

The commands of the mind
Are guaranteed disaster.

23130

Nothing can remain strange
When God starts arranging
My life.

23131

To speak of others
To God
Is a waste of time.

23132

To think of others
In front of God
Is a waste of time.

23133

To show our love of mankind
To God
Is the best use of time.

23134

Each time I bow my head to God,
He blessingfully offers me
A few of His proud Heartbeats.

23135

We breathe in air
To live.
A child-heart
Breathes in God’s Heart
To live.

23136

I must conquer
All my negativity
With my
God-gratitude-smiles.

23137

God feels miserable
When we put our aspiration-dreams
On hold.

23138

Our comedies reach
God’s Mind-Door.

23139

Our tragedies reach
God’s Heart-Room.

23140

The spiritual life means
The fulfilment of
God’s Hopes.

23141

The moment we take shelter
At God’s Feet,
Our old age vanishes.

23142

If we allow our enthusiasm to fade,
We will not be allowed to stay
At God’s Gate.

23143

May God’s Compassion
And my surrender
Reciprocate
Twenty-four hours a day.

23144

Nobody can make
A false start
To please God.

23145

I love
My aspiration-speed,
And not my ambition-crown.

23146

Even the most unaspiring person
On earth
Knows that he lives
Between his mind-torture
And heart-rapture.

23147

From aspiration-sea
We collect
A bumper crop of realisation.

23148

My Lord, are You speaking to me
Or to my soul?
“My child, I am speaking to you.
I do not have to tell anything
To your soul,
For it knows everything it does
Every day
To my Satisfaction.”

23149

You cannot get an ‘A-plus’
From your aspiration-heart
If you do not pay attention
To your dedication-life.

23150

Only one proclamation:
My deathless loyalty
To my Master-Lord.

23151

God is visible
Only to our heart’s
Love-eye.

23152

An unhappy mind
Is
The heaviest burden.

23153

Each God-related activity
Is a step forward
Towards God’s Supreme Reality.

23154

If your mind is flexible,
Then your mind will definitely
Be eligible
For God’s Blessings.

23155

Every seeker
Is
A potential God.

23156

God is telling the truth:
He needs you.

23157

Can you not tell the truth:
That you love God?

23158

Gratitude
Is the highest and deepest self-offering
To the Absolute.

23159

Hope
Is the greatest self-support.

23160

May my ears feast on
God’s Message-Light.

23161

I frequent the places
Where I am needed.
God frequents the places
Where He is never needed.

23162

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye
Saves me
From doubt-invaders.

23163

Just avoid the thoughts
That cloud
Your God-loving heart-sky.

23164

Nothing earthly
Can ever satisfy
My God-hunger.

23165

When I tell God
That He is my All,
He immediately lavishes
His Nectar-Delight-Fondness
On me.

23166

After death
Only our heart-love-wealth
Remains with us.

23167

May I have
An unfading gratitude-garland
For my Lord Supreme
Every day.

23168

I pray to God
To tell me only one story
From His Life.

23169

God tells me to sing
Only one song
From my heart.

23170

He who blames God
Eventually defames
Himself.

23171

A true seeker
Can never be caught
In the mind’s doubt-dilemma.

23172

Open your heart-eye to see
That your God-failure-life
Is completely gone.

23173

The umbrella of the heart
Can save us
From the misery-mind-rain.

23174

Disobedience
Prospers nowhere.

23175

Silence the mind.
Lo, God is all ready to finance
Your spiritual life
Forever.

23176

If you need God’s Love more,
Rest assured that He has more,
Infinitely more, to give you.

23177

If we love God,
Then God will live
In our hearts.

23178

Even if we do not love God,
God will compassionately live
In our heartbeats.

23179

We know how
To excuse ourselves.

23180

God knows how
To busy Himself.

23181

A surrender-life
Is always on a pilgrimage
To God.

23182

Belief,
And not faith,
Needs to study
The God-understanding-course.

23183

I live between
My mind-frustration-depths
And
My heart-happiness-heights.

23184

My tears live
Very near
God’s Heart.

23185

My smiles live
Very near
God’s Eye.

23186

Heaven-obedience
Has another name:
Heart-peace.

23187

God never arranges your life
Because you always try
To escape challenges.

23188

If I need more,
God has more.

23189

If I need less,
God comes to bless me
Immediately.

23190

The sweetness of my life
And the fulness of my heart
Have come directly
From God’s Dreams.

23191

The mind
Constantly loves
Arguments.

23192

The heart
Sleeplessly needs
Enlightenment.

23193

To please God
In God’s own Way
Is a heart-thrill par excellence.

23194

If you sing heart-songs,
Then it will be easy for you
To find God
Inside your mind.

23195

God is never strong enough
To remain hidden
From my God-crying heart.

23196

The Guru brings together
Man’s hope
And
God’s Promise.

23197

I think of
My earth-failure-hours.

23198

God thinks of
My Heaven-success-years.

23199

My heaven-heart-journey
Is
Extremely easy.

23200

My earth-life-journey
Is
Extremely hard.

23201

God wants me to be
His Love in expansion
And
His Compassion in manifestation.

23202

Countless
Are the desire-thorns
Of the mind.

23203

Countless
Are the aspiration-roses
Of the heart.

23204

Only my Lord’s Feet
Can grant me
Peace.

23205

My life bows and bows
Only to the Compassion-flooded Eye
Of my Lord Supreme.

23206

The aspiring heart
Does have the capacity
To fly
To God’s golden Heart-Palace.

23207

Those who travel in the heart-land
Are chosen instruments
Of God.

23208

We must treasure
Each aspiration-moment,
We must treasure
Each dedication-moment,
And we must treasure
Each manifestation-moment.

23209

Like God’s Grace,
Our love also must radiate
In all directions.

23210

How I wish
At every moment
My heart could sing
A God-love-song.

23211

It gives me great joy
When I think that
My Master was also a seeker
Long, long ago.

23212

Anything that is divine
Is bound to expand
Sooner or later.

23213

Possession
Is
A human experience.

23214

Renunciation
Is
A divine realisation.

23215

The mind can never sing
Any heart-song
Correctly.

23216

God-surrender
Is
My most favourite game.

23217

God will love you
Infinitely more
If you share with the world
Your God-given happiness.

23218

Newness-fragrance
Is awakening
My heart.

23219

Your life must not be
An overused
Excuse-machine.

23220

I have zero tolerance
For my self-doubt.

23221

What we always need
Is
A problem-solving silence.

23222

O mind,
How long are you going to stay
In the taut grip of ingratitude?

23223

Gratitude
Is nothing short of
A divine attitude.

23224

The mind has no time
For God.

23225

The heart has time
Only for God.

23226

I have time
Only for God-Commands.

23227

The lotus of your heart
Shall bloom
When you consciously end
Your friendship
With ignorance-doom.

23228

I do not have to preach to the world
That God exists,
As long as I feel Him
At every moment
Inside the breath of my gratitude-heart.

23229

Worry is
An express train
That knows no destination.

23230

The mind wants to make
A profound impression
When it is near God.

23231

The heart only implores Compassion
From God
When it is near God.

23232

The mind treasures
Its recycled doubts.

23233

May my heart-garden
Never be empty of
Devotion-beauty
And
Devotion-fragrance.

23234

As there are troubles,
Even so,
There are troubleshooters:
God-tears.

23235

Alas,
I do not know why I daydream
When my Lord Supreme
So compassionately blesses me.

23236

Angels congratulate me
Immediately
When I surrender
To God’s Will.

23237

My Lord,
Every day You raise my heart
In Your Hand
Like a beautiful flower.

23238

My heart has
Two inseparable friends:
Sweetness and soulfulness.

23239

When I surrender to God’s Will,
Heaven’s freedom-birds
Fly over me.

23240

I can count grass
If I want to,
But not my heart-tears.

23241

There is no last day
In God’s Cosmic Play.

23242

There is no way to know
When God will either
Enter into my heart
Or withdraw from my life.

23243

I dearly love my heart
When it is in full
Aspiration-bloom.

23244

My mind,
Can you not let me go?
Can I not be happy
Once again?

23245

The fragrance of Heaven
Dwells all the time
In the aspiration-heart.

23246

There is not a single day
When ignorance-knife
Does not attack us.

23247

The name of my home
Is
God’s Compassion.

23248

It is true that whatever happens
Is predestined.
It is also true that fate can be changed
By an indomitable will.

23249

Everything can fade away in my life
Save and except
My love of God.

23250

I must fly
To my heart-home
With the wings of love.

23251

Great is the reward
When we love the world
And become the tears of the world.

23252

My soul
Is locked forever
In God-Embrace.

23253

God-obedience
Is
The highest God-satisfaction.

23254

I wish I had
A life of sea-immensity.

23255

God does not come alone.
He comes with His Compassion-Eye
Every day
To our heart’s door.

23256

No matter what the heart does,
The heart always remains
God’s favourite.

23257

Every morning
God gives Himself away
To His children
According to their hearts’ receptivity.

23258

Willingness is always capable
Of performing
Any task.

23259

A gratitude-heart
Knows
No doubt-mind-storm.

23260

Everything is fascinating
To the mind
When it enters into
The inner world.

23261

The mind
Here on earth
Is divinely to grow.

23262

The heart
Here on earth
Is supremely to grow.

23263

The life
Here on earth
Is unreservedly to flow.

23264

Ceaseless cries
Are needed
To please God’s Eye.

23265

A moment of cry
Is needed
To please God’s Heart.

23266

Meditation means
Conversation with silence.

23267

I can protect myself
From others,
But not from my mind.

23268

Alas,
My life begins every day
With the worst possible nightmare.

23269

My unwilling mind
Was won over
When God wanted to withdraw.

23270

We have something very significant
To do:
We all have to bury
Our fruitless yesterdays.

23271

Greatness
Is not illumination,
But goodness is.

23272

Unlike life,
Death practises democracy.

23273

My heart awakens
Every morning
With the fragrance
Of a rose.

23274

I call it my gratitude.
God calls it His treasure.

23275

Ignorance and joy
Are mutual robbers.

23276

My heart does not believe
What my mind is seeing.

23277

My heart does not believe
Where my mind is heading.

23278

My heart does not believe
What my mind is becoming.

23279

You will drown
The moment you enter into
Disobedience-river.

23280

When I expect God
In my mind,
He is nowhere.

23281

When I hope for God
In my heart,
He is all-where.

23282

The Compassion-God
Caresses my life.

23283

The Justice-God
Watches every moment
Of my life.

23284

God blessingfully offers
His Heart-Pillow
For my surrender to rest.

23285

Inside each God-deed
I see a world of virtues.

23286

My heart is sustained
By God’s Compassion-Eye.

23287

My mind is sustained
By God’s Forgiveness-Heart.

23288

God Himself
Wants to chain and train
My mind.

23289

When God touches
My mind,
Everything my mind ignores.

23290

When God touches
My heart,
Everything my heart adores.

23291

I long to know
Only one thing:
God’s express Will.

23292

When we amuse God,
He tells us that
We are extolling Him to the skies.

23293

God’s Joy and God’s Pride
Know no bounds
When we walk the road
Travelled by His self-giving seekers.

23294

My gratitude-heart
Is where
God daily and proudly rests.

23295

God enjoys
His Compassion-Eye-Height
Infinitely more than
His Justice-Light.

23296

When the heart has aspiration
And the mind has enthusiasm,
There is nothing
That we cannot accomplish.

23297

God has made my heart
Of treasure
His most comforting place.

23298

Cheerfulness and soulfulness
Immediately strengthen
Our God-ties.

23299

Mine is the heart that thrives
Only on
My heart’s devotion-cries.

23300

My progress in the inner race
Depends entirely
On God’s endless Grace.

23301

My God-devotion-heart
Sees no flaw
In any human being.

23302

Desire itself
Is cruelty.

23303

Never touch
The feet
Of ignorance-night.

23304

Break asunder
The head
Of ignorance-night.

23305

We must take care of
The physical body
Because inside the body
Is God’s representative:
The soul.

23306

Self-doubt
Is the worst possible failure
In the spiritual life.

23307

We must have implicit faith
In God —
He can never lose control
Over His creation.

23308

My Lord,
If I do not listen to Your Requests
Today,
Please use Your strongest Demands
Tomorrow.

23309

We have been faithful
To our ignorance-boss.
It is high time for us
To change the boss.

23310

A gratitude-heart
Is found everywhere.
I wonder if there can exist
A gratitude-mind.

23311

My insecurity
Is nothing short of
A serious ailment,
And this ailment is quite often found
In God’s Compassion-Hospital.

23312

When my last desire disappeared,
God immediately appeared
And gave me His All.

23313

God feeds us with His Bliss
Only inside
Our devotion-heart-temple.

23314

At long last
I have located my God’s Will.
It is inside
My sleeplessly self-offering breath.

23315

May the fragrance
Of my heart-cries
Never fade.

23316

A constant aspiration-renewal
And
A constant dedication-renewal
Can alone lead us speedily
To our highest goal.

23317

A non-stop enthusiasm
In the mind
Is of paramount importance
In the spiritual life.

23318

The mind-mirror
Has to be cleaned
Every day.

23319

A negativity-mind
Is
The most powerful sword.

23320

No matter how many times
I see God,
I quiver with delight
Every time.

23321

There is only one goal in my life,
And that goal is to spend
Each and every moment
In satisfying my Lord Beloved Supreme.

23322

Anything that belongs to my heart
Is a divine splendour —
So says my Lord Supreme.

23323

My God-excitement
Expedites
My God-enlightenment.

23324

Each time I look at God’s Eye,
I see only
His Compassion-Tears.

23325

My life-surrender-breath
Hears God’s Footfalls
Before anybody else.

23326

God sings and sings
With the river of
My heart-tears.

23327

At every moment
May the Touch of my Beloved Supreme
Pulsate in my ever-blossoming
Gratitude-heart.

23328

Every morning
God invites me to rise
On the wings
Of His Self-Transcendence-Vision.

23329

Unless and until we grind
Our ego-life to dust,
We cannot succeed satisfactorily
In our spiritual life.

23330

Each God-seeker
Is, indeed,
A God-warrior.

23331

Alas,
I do not know if there will be a time
When every cell of my physical life
Soulfully yearns for my Lord Supreme.

23332

Devotion
Has always something soulful
To tell God.

23333

The mind
Does not believe in
Bending its knees.

23334

The heart
Knows only one thing:
How to bend its knees
All the time
In the soul-temple.

23335

My Lord,
Just one more Smile
And I shall give You my all.

23336

Hesitation
Eventually becomes
A frustration-life.

23337

When we want God to please us,
We must know
That we are on the wrong track.

23338

To realise God we do not need
A monumental sacrifice.
What we need is the annihilation
Of our earth-bound ego.

23339

God wants us to increase
Our aspiration-hunger
Every day, every hour
And every moment.

23340

Alas,
What has happened to us?
We all have become
World-appreciation-beggars.

23341

My Lord Supreme,
What is puzzling You?
“Do you not know, My child,
What is puzzling Me?
Your ingratitude-mind.”

23342

There is only one thing
That I must become immediately —
A sleepless God-surrender.

23343

Each time my heart sings,
It melts
My Lord’s Heart.

23344

Heaven descends
When we are ready to play
With God
In God’s own Way.

23345

If we are always in the mind
And for the mind,
Then we shall be doing nothing
Save and except
Jumping and rushing about.

23346

Every day
God’s Compassion-Eye
Helps my life to fly
At a higher altitude.

23347

My life is in despair
Not because I have failed,
But because I do not have the strength
To fight against ignorance-night
And please my Lord Supreme.

23348

Cheerfulness of the mind,
Intensity of the heart
And purity in life
Can bring about
The miracle of miracles:
God’s bountiful Presence.

23349

Positive thoughts and negative thoughts
Come to us at every moment.
We must use our wisdom-light
To disperse immediately
Our mind-clouds
With our positive thoughts.

23350

My mind,
Enough is enough!
Be quiet, sit and listen
To our Absolute Lord Supreme.

23351

God laughs at
My mind-information.

23352

God treasures
My heart-dedication.

23353

Spirituality
And divinity
Go together.

23354

Self-giving
Is the expansion
Of the heart.

23355

Divine Grace only
Can show us the Face
Of the Absolute.

23356

Old age does not mean
Needed God-surrender achieved.

23357

Old age does mean
Continuation of achievement.

23358

Nothing is complete.
Everything is in process.

23359

We must make ourselves happy,
No matter what happens.

23360

Happiness
Is an inner product
And not an outer product.

23361

It is our choice
To make the world happy.

23362

Those who bend their knees
At the altar
Are the strongest God-soldiers.

23363

Fear is afraid of faith,
But faith
Is never afraid of fear.

23364

Follow in the footsteps
Of a goodness-heart
And not of a greatness-mind.

23365

Everything takes time,
Specially transformation.

23366

Old ways of thinking
Must give way
To new ways of thinking.

23367

We are all being awakened
Day by day
From our inner slumber.

23368

Do not interrupt God
While He is working.
Just wait and watch.

23369

Ego can give us outer success
But not
Inner progress.

23370

There is always time
For us to become
Something new.

23371

O my mind,
What you need
Is a fresh Godward journey.

23372

Since everybody is
A teacher,
Poor God has to be
The student.

23373

My eyes are focused
Only on the constant Victory
Of our Lord Supreme.

23374

Faith and doubt
Can never coexist.

23375

Love may fail
To conquer everything,
But God’s Grace
Can conquer everything.

23376

Each cry
Is
An inner unfailing revelation.

23377

Doubt challenges.
Faith wins.

23378

A devotion-heart
Can blow the God-trumpet
Most successfully.

23379

The doubting mind
Can shatter
The world of belief.

23380

Silence
Awakens my heart.

23381

Silence
Liberates my life.

23382

Heaven is rich
In powerful smiles.

23383

Earth is rich
In beautiful cries.

23384

He who is empty
Of gratitude
Is full of unhappiness.

23385

When God commands me,
He gladdens my all.

23386

Each time I sing a song
For God,
His Nearness surprises me.

23387

He who wants to live
In the outer world
Has to be brave.

23388

He who wants to live
In the inner world
Has to be pure.

23389

Although I do not feel
Anything extraordinary in me,
Both Heaven and earth
Disagree with me.

23390

Heaven gives us so many things
Unconditionally.
How can we ever be jealous
Of Heaven?

23391

God is eager to give me
His Dream.
Will I ever be ready to offer Him
My reality?

23392

Do not delay!
Do not deny
Your conscience-light.

23393

God’s Compassion-Eye
Is infinitely closer than
We can ever imagine.

23394

Anything we do
Under pressure
Will not have a happy ending.

23395

Greatness frightens.
Goodness enlightens.

23396

The human in me
Tortures me.

23397

The divine in me
Treasures me.

23398

Because God loves me,
He will make good use of me
And my life.

23399

Imagination
Gives me joy.

23400

Aspiration
Gives me certitude.

23401

Imagination
Is
A perfect harbinger
Of reality.

23402

Determination-necessity
Is
Of paramount importance.

23403

We can find solace
Only in the heart
Of silence.

23404

Self-discipline
Is our safeguard
Par excellence.

23405

We need an able Master
To teach us
The message of the soul.

23406

The creation’s
Panoramic view
Is fleeting.

23407

My speech-life has to end
So that I can begin
My prayer-heart.

23408

Each soul-song
Has unique power.

23409

The stupidity
Of the God-separation-mind
Can be unlimited.

23410

The wisdom
Of the God-united heart
Is fathomless.

23411

Every morning
I collect peace-blossoms
In my heart-garden.

23412

Whenever I talk about God,
I must speak with
An unshakable conviction.

23413

We have to swim
Hundreds of inspiration-rivers
Before we enter into
The aspiration-sea.

23414

Every seeker
Must take the God-obedience-course
Before anything else.

23415

God warns:
“No more desire-bound nights.”

23416

God commands:
“Aspiration-days more,
Ever more.”

23417

God awakens us
From deep slumber
At His choice Hour.

23418

Today’s small mistakes
Can be
Tomorrow’s Himalayan blunders.

23419

Only God-appointments
Can destroy
All our disappointments.

23420

I meditate
Not in my mind-cave.

23421

I meditate
Only inside my heart-cottage.

23422

God does not mind
If I am
A God-doubter.

23423

God does mind
If I am
A man-hater.

23424

The way God loves our questions,
Exactly the same way
We must love God’s Answers.

23425

Each time we aspire,
We must enjoy
A new God-adventure.

23426

May my heart at every moment
Try to grasp the dust
Of God’s Feet.

23427

The smiles born in Heaven
Cannot solve even one problem
Of mine.

23428

The tears born on earth
Solve all my problems.

23429

The inferior mind
Always finds fault with
The superior heart.

23430

May I be
An undivided heart
To be always at the Feet
Of my Lord Supreme.

23431

The soul flies and flies
In the face of
Our utter failures.

23432

My devotion-tears
Are
My heart’s sweetest songs.

23433

He who says “Yes!”
To God’s Love
Is, indeed, awakened.

23434

A doubt-free mind
Is, indeed,
A supreme achievement.

23435

The ancient gods
Liberated me.

23436

The modern gods
Exasperate me.

23437

Earth imports
Blessing-smiles
From Heaven.

23438

Heaven imports
Earth’s satisfaction-smiles.

23439

It is not enough to be
God’s servant;
We all must be
God’s hero-warriors.

23440

If you are only for God,
Then you must go beyond
The limits of human capacity.

23441

If you do not obey God’s Will,
Then you are bound to stumble,
Time and again,
In life’s desert.

23442

Life is an eternal journey
Towards
An ever-transcending Goal.

23443

If we do not run at top speed
In our inner life,
We may not arrive at the Goal
At God’s choice Hour.

23444

The mind
Is enamoured of
Ignorance-world.

23445

The heart
Is enamoured of
God’s Heart
And
God’s Life.

23446

The mind suspects
The heart’s achievements.

23447

The vital rejects
The heart’s achievements.

23448

The body inspects
The heart’s achievements.

23449

The soul treasures
The heart’s achievements.

23450

On the path of love,
We can have a free access
To God’s Palace.

23451

How long
Can the mind deny God?
Not very long.

23452

How long
Can the heart love God?
Forever.

23453

May my heart always live
On the bank of
An aspiration-river.

23454

Every morning
God visits
Our flower-beauty-heart.

23455

We love to tell God
All our devotion-stories.

23456

God loves to hear from us
Only our surrender-songs.

23457

To know God’s Will
In its totality
Is, indeed, the most difficult task.

23458

Every seeker
Has to fight against
The mind-hostility-attacks.

23459

Let my outer curiosity
And my inner necessity
Turn towards God.

23460

I must smash
The pride
Of my mind-monarch.

23461

I must enjoy
The beauty and fragrance
Of my God-surrender-life.

23462

Each human being
Must develop an inclination
To excel in everything.

23463

God has given me
This morning
His Satisfaction-Certificate.

23464

God is ready to steer my life-boat
If I give up
My self-importance-pride.

23465

My soul wants me
To achieve the impossible:
God’s full manifestation on earth.

23466

If we fulfil our desires,
Everything we lose
And nothing we gain.

23467

There was a time
When I depended on
My physical strength.
Now I depend only on
My wisdom-light.

23468

My Lord,
I have only one thing
To offer You:
My love.
I beg of You to accept it.

23469

Do not allow the desiring mind
To trample
Your beautiful heart-plants.

23470

The mind loves complexity
And takes pride in complexity.

23471

Even a baby step forward
Will eventually bring us
To the Golden Shore.

23472

The mind and the vital
Know how to offend.

23473

The soul and the heart
Know how to defend.

23474

My Lord’s
Only favourite time
Is right now.

23475

My self-giving life
Is treasured
By God Himself.

23476

The heart-intensity
Always gives us
A new aspiration-height.

23477

I never allow
My love-devotion-surrender
To run low
On God-manifestation.

23478

Sincerity
Purifies the mind.

23479

Simplicity
Glorifies the life.

23480

The inner cheerfulness
Is
The outer depression-antidote.

23481

I am envisioning
When my mind will swim
In the sea of light.

23482

God supplies
My morning meditation
With His Nectar-Delight.

23483

Do not think of your slow start.
Remember,
“Slow and steady wins the race.”

23484

We must every day, every hour,
Every minute, every second
Ignore
Our vital-clamour.

23485

Innocence
Is
Eternally praiseworthy.

23486

If we cannot rise above
Popular opinion,
We cannot achieve
Anything significant.

23487

Each seeker’s life
Is
A daring, challenging adventure.

23488

Raise the standard
Of your self-discipline,
Raise,
Every day!

23489

My Lord,
Even if You do not have the time
To think of me all the time,
Do give me the capacity
To love You, serve You and please You
All the time.

23490

I am collecting happiness-hearts
To give satisfaction
To my Lord Supreme.

23491

My Lord dictates
His Compassion-Blessing-Songs
To me.

23492

God tells me that,
Whether I believe it or not,
I am His partner
And not His slave.

23493

God has no time
To listen
To my sad mind-stories.

23494

God has all the time
To hear
My heart-songs.

23495

I must experience
A never-ending
God-satisfaction.

23496

With love, devotion and surrender-wings
There is no height
That you cannot scale.

23497

I leave my heart-door wide open
In case God comes to visit me
Without any warning.

23498

Catch me, my Lord Supreme,
Before I go
Farther and farther
Away from You.

23499

We murder our heart-feelings
With our mind’s doubt-arrows
All the time.

23500

To try to measure
The power of love
Is simply ridiculous.

23501

Whenever I sing,
God wants me to sing
With my full-hearted soulfulness.

23502

If our life does not become
An aspiration-enthusiasm-fire,
We cannot succeed in the spiritual life.

23503

We must accept life’s
Up and down waves
Smilingly and bravely.

23504

The heart-explorer
Loves God-expedition
More than anything else.

23505

May my life every day fly
In the vastness-sky
Of my Lord Supreme.

23506

There should only be a rise
And no fall
In my aspiration.

23507

Each heart was born
In the Delight-Heart-Temple
Of my Lord Supreme.

23508

Each seeker
Has to grow into
A God-manifestation-hero.

23509

Each seeker
Has a flashlight
In the depths of his heart
To find God.

23510

Poor God,
Every morning
He knocks and knocks
At my heart-door
In vain.

23511

God wants
Each and every heart
To be His Confidence-Joy.

23512

With our heart-tears
There is nothing
That we cannot accomplish.

23513

Heart-tears climb
Faster than the fastest
Towards Heaven.

23514

Aspiration takes us to
An ever-climbing height:
God-realisation.

23515

The path of devotion
Is absolutely the straightest path
To God.

23516

Do not take a break
When you want to please God
In His own Way.

23517

The fragrance
Of my early morning meditation
Covers the length and breadth
Of the world.

23518

My mind-doubts
Are extremely afraid of
My deep meditation.

23519

The mind
Believes in
Opinion.

23520

The heart
Believes in
God-affirmation.

23521

The heart must never take
The mind’s words
Seriously.

23522

With our heart’s aspiration-flames
We shall not only battle
Against our lower self,
But we must conquer
Our lower self as well.

23523

Any unhealthy thought
Has to be discarded
Sooner than the soonest.

23524

Without happiness
In our meditation,
We cannot make
Satisfactory progress.

23525

Not only lovingly
But also unerringly,
The heart follows the lead
Of our Beloved Supreme.

23526

Our outer confidence
Comes from
Our inner aspiration-awakening.

23527

Sleeplessly we must keep
Our spiritual life
In God-Love-orbit.

23528

Love-seeds always find
The heart-soil
Extremely fertile.

23529

When the mind disturbs you
During your meditation,
Tell the mind that God is coming
To send it into silence-exile.

23530

Thought-waves
Must not carry us away
When we start our meditation.

23531

Each inspiration
Is the assurance
Of a new height.

23532

Be careful!
Each ignorance-thought
Has tremendous power
To weigh us down.

23533

Each God-seeker
Must go far beyond
Life’s give-and-take game
With ignorance-night.

23534

May my life every day
Be structured
By my self-discipline.

23535

Before we enter into
The meditation-room,
We must forcefully leave
All our thoughts outside.

23536

Hard is it for the mind
To come out of
The hesitation-prison.

23537

The aspiring mind has to be
A perfect stranger
To hesitation and indecision.

23538

Whenever I see that my mind
Is eager to talk to me,
I simply say:
“Shut up! Shut up!”

23539

Whenever I see that my heart
Wants to talk to me,
I just say to my heart:
“Come closer to me.
Why are you standing so far away?”

23540

The beauty of hope
Is
Unimaginable.

23541

The fragrance of promise
Is
Extremely powerful.

23542

God wants my heart
To give Him
A daily progress report.
My heart implicitly obeys God.

23543

Today’s gladness
Can easily discard
Yesterday’s sadness.

23544

If you stay too long
With your desiring mind,
Then you are bound to learn
From the mind
How to make complaints.

23545

The aspiring heart
Has to be found
Here, there and everywhere.

23546

The power of the mind
Limits us.

23547

The love of the heart
Liberates us.

23548

The mind’s negativity
Is a most destructive reality
In our life.

23549

If we separate our aspiration-heart
From our dedication-life,
Then we will never be able to make
Even an iota of progress.

23550

We must at every moment
Wrestle and wrestle
With each negative thought.

23551

Each day
God tells our heart
To rocket its aspiration
To ever-new heights.

23552

We must try
To double
Our aspiration-efforts.

23553

Inner faith
Does have the capacity
To change
The outer mind’s course.

23554

God examines us
With His boundless Love.

23555

We examine God
With our ceaseless pride.

23556

To awaken anybody
From lethargy-slumber
Is a most difficult task.

23557

To our greatest sorrow,
Our proud mind thinks
God’s Game is fathomable.

23558

Those who offer themselves
For the betterment of the world
Are God’s chosen champions
In the inner world.

23559

Nothing can be as sweet
As the heart’s
God-longing love.

23560

Meditation
Means creativity
And not activity.

23561

God invites us
Every day
To fly
On His Will-Wings.

23562

God answers our questions
With His Compassion-Eye
And His Forgiveness-Heart.

23563

Eventually everything reaches
The destination,
But surrender reaches
The destination first.

23564

Listen only to your soul.
Do not allow your vital and mind
To lord it over you
Any more.

23565

Two things help us immensely:
The clarity of the mind
And the purity of the heart.

23566

There is nothing worth seeing
In the mind-circus.

23567

When God chides us,
It is the clear proof that
He abides in us,
For us.

23568

God has only one duty:
To awaken us from
Our age-long ignorance-sleep.

23569

God wants no more
Ignorance-enjoyment-pleasure.

23570

There is no end
To our desire-episodes.

23571

The mind does not know
How to behave well
In the presence of God.

23572

I shall bring my mind
Out of the doubt-prison
Today.

23573

Two things I love:
A God-dreaming mind
And
A truth-seeking heart.

23574

We may not know where we came from,
But we do know that we are heading
Towards Heaven.

23575

God has sent us into the world.
We must do something for Him
In return
Here on earth.

23576

If you wait for ignorance
To leave you alone,
Rest assured,
It will never happen.

23577

When I write to my Lord,
I use my aspiration-ink
And devotion-pen.

23578

When my heart tries to imitate
God’s Heart,
God becomes unimaginably happy.

23579

The mind never knows
How to run short of problems.

23580

I am all gratitude
To earth
For its boundless patience.

23581

I am grateful
To Heaven
For its endless forgiveness.

23582

The mind deliberately wants to be
Out of touch
With the soul.

23583

Wherever we see ignorance-walls,
We must demolish them
Immediately.

23584

Alas,
My life loves to sleep
Twenty-four hours a day.

23585

Alas,
My mind loves to argue
Twenty-four hours a day.

23586

To my greatest joy,
My heart loves to pray and meditate
Twenty-four hours a day.

23587

We may not see the Beyond,
But we do have the capacity
To feel the Beyond
Deep within us.

23588

My Lord tells me
That my magnanimity-heart
Is His peerless treasure.

23589

How my heart and I
Every day desire
To dream only God-dreams!

23590

Until the mind chooses
To start running towards God,
God is unhappy.

23591

May my God-singing
Devotion-heart
Never be out of tune.

23592

I surprised my Lord today
By coming to Him
Without an iota of self-doubt.

23593

Earthly pleasure
Has
A very short breath.

23594

The nay-sayers
Are disliked by God.

23595

The yea-sayers
Are God’s favourites.

23596

The desire
That does not bloom
Knows no doom.

23597

Hesitation-thoughts
Eventually meet with
Destruction.

23598

May my aspiration-elevator
Go only one way:
High, higher, highest.

23599

When I pray,
I enjoy
The joy of speed.

23600

When I meditate,
I enjoy
The speed of joy.

23601

Is there anyone
Who has no enemies
On earth?
No, not even God Himself.

23602

A true seeker gets immense joy
The moment he is assigned
To do something
For God.

23603

My inner life and my outer life
Together
Always walk
The golden path
Of God’s Will.

23604

God is always eager
To illumine me
Whenever there is some confusion
Between God and me.
But alas, I do not have the time
For His Illumination.

23605

A self-giving seeker
Is definitely protected
By the armour
Of God’s Compassion-Eye.

23606

We must invoke
God’s blessingful Presence
On earth
For at least three hours a day.

23607

Like the heart,
The mind without fail
Has to become
A sacred God-temple.

23608

Until the heart starts throbbing
With God-yearning,
We cannot reach God’s Feet.

23609

My depression
Is the enemy number one
Of my God-aspiration.

23610

Alas, when will my inner life
And my outer life
Become truly inseparable companions?

23611

My God-crying life
Knows
No intimidation.

23612

When I tell God
That I am useless,
He tells me,
“My child,
I believe everything that you tell Me,
Except this.”

23613

To serve God all the time
Is a supreme opportunity
And not a dreadful predicament.

23614

A self-giving heart
Knows no tiredness
In worshipping God.

23615

I want to worship God,
But God wants me
To amuse Him.

23616

There is only one thing
That is definite:
Everything eventually leads
To the Infinite.

23617

Once God hires someone,
He does not know
How to dismiss.

23618

Age has nothing to do
With a bountiful wisdom-light.

23619

Every moment unveils
A new movement
Towards light.

23620

God’s Heavenly Drums
Are destined to be played
By each and every human being.

23621

No haven
For a pleasure-enjoyer.

23622

Truth to see,
Truth to declare
And
Truth to become
Are three totally different things.

23623

My new home address:
God-surrender
And
Man-service.

23624

I have brought down
My countless desires
To one:
God’s Compassion-Eye.

23625

God is your All.
If you do not feel it,
Then He is not going to answer
Your call.

23626

Never look back!
Yesterday’s failure-days
May bark at you ruthlessly.

23627

The human in me
Does not believe in Grace.
It believes only in
The winning of the race.

23628

Today’s aspiration
Is yesterday’s
Desire-purification.

23629

No heart-nutrition,
No God-vision.

23630

Alas,
When will God-satisfaction-nectar
Ever feed me?

23631

The human in me
And the divine in me
Both live
For God’s Compassion-Drops.

23632

God’s Love
And God’s Compassion-Shower
Are inseparable.

23633

Only a silence-sea
Can produce
Peace-waves.

23634

God does not run short
Of anything,
Specially His Forgiveness
And Compassion.

23635

My heart thrives on
My God-Love-reminiscences.

23636

O seeker,
Why do you not use
Your heart’s divinity-eye
To look at the Feet
Of the Absolute Supreme?

23637

The body’s lethargy-life
Is paying no attention
To earth’s cries
And Heaven’s Smiles.

23638

Each dark situation
Has a bright solution
Deep within.

23639

Man does not know
That God is
His constant heart-chariot-Driver.

23640

When God’s Compassion-Eye
Lifts me up,
None can bring me down.

23641

There is only one thing
To look at:
God’s Compassion-Eye.

23642

There is only one thing
To feel:
God’s Forgiveness-Heart.

23643

There is only one thing
To become:
A God-oneness-desire.

23644

A seeker is he
Whose life eventually becomes
A God-composed song.

23645

When I view the world
With God’s Eyes,
I see no imperfection
In God’s creation.

23646

Man is man’s
Emergency-mind-hospital.

23647

The Absolute
Has only one place to live:
My gratitude-heart.

23648

My soul is telling me:
“Be dynamic!
God cannot wait any longer.”

23649

I frequent the place
Where God is sleeplessly adored
By His devotees.

23650

God’s Heart and my heart
Live
In inseparable affection-oneness.

23651

The visible God
And my heart
Are sailing together
Towards the invisible God.

23652

Every day
God urges us
To plant our feet
On higher ground.

23653

Obedience
In little things
Is of supreme necessity.

23654

Each moment
Is
A God-satisfaction-opportunity.

23655

Do not allow
Any mistake
To grow into
An Himalayan blunder.

23656

Grace can be gentle,
Grace can be powerful,
According to the necessity.

23657

Everything about God
Is inspiring,
To say the least.

23658

I want God’s Eye
To take care of me,
But God wants His Heart
To take care of me.

23659

When God’s Eye
I do not use,
I just fail and fail.

23660

If we do not see
God’s creation
From God’s point of view,
We shall miserably fail.

23661

There is nothing
That God will not do for us,
Provided we give Him
A sincerity-heart.

23662

The wisdom of the heart
Cannot be fooled
By the clever mind.

23663

Insecurity, jealousy
And impurity
Are immediate peace-killers.

23664

When we are insecure,
We become expert
In blaming God.

23665

God reveals His Heart
And gives His Feet
To the God-lover.

23666

Ego means
A boastful tongue.

23667

Enthusiasm
Knows
No tiredness.

23668

According to the present situation,
Peace is just
A dictionary word.

23669

Disobedience
Does not know
That it walks
On the destruction-path.

23670

A disobedience-mind
Gives birth
To a sorrow-heart.

23671

My Lord,
May my devotion
Increase
With every breath.

23672

The difference between
The mind and the heart
Is this:
The mind uses itself
To solve world problems;
The heart uses God
To solve all problems.

23673

Alas,
I am nowhere near
A clarity-mind
And
A charity-heart.

23674

The mind-circus
No more, no more!

23675

The heart-garden
More, ever more!

23676

Alas,
Knowingly, consciously
And deliberately,
We live in the dark chambers
Of our mind.

23677

If you want to be happy,
Open, inside your heart,
God’s Forgiveness-Present.

23678

Joy inundates me
The moment I start fighting
Against my suspicion-mind.

23679

Ingratitude is a loser
In both the inner
And outer worlds.

23680

I would like to be
An obedience-student
In God’s Heart-School.

23681

Our devotion-applications
God immediately accepts.

23682

Do not shout!
God is apt to hear
Even our whispers.

23683

O my mind,
It is high time
For you to shut up.

23684

Both God’s Patience
And my stupidity
Know no limits.

23685

If you are eager
To seek God’s Guidance,
He is all ready.

23686

I am found
At two different places:
On the top of hope-tree
And on promise-rock.

23687

My morning prayers
Save my day.

23688

My evening meditations
Help me to fly
To the stars.

23689

If we do not intensify
Our inner cry,
How can our heart fly
In Infinity’s sky?

23690

God is God’s
Compassion-Fountain.
I am my
Ignorance-mountain.

23691

My gratitude
Immediately increases the power
Of God’s Blessings.

23692

We do not need
Outer skills
To see God.

23693

What we need
Is the inner thrill
To see the arrival
Of God.

23694

The mind jumps
On the same spot
Non-stop.

23695

The heart runs and runs
Towards its destination.

23696

My heart-road is decorated
With jasmine
For my Lord to walk along.

23697

Humanity
Knows how to kick me
At random.

23698

Divinity knows
How to bless me with a Smile
All the time.

23699

The mind sadly fails
When it tries
To pull my soul down.

23700

The mind sadly fails
When it tries
To fool my heart.

23701

There is only one game
I love to play:
The surrender-game.

23702

Every smile from my heart
Receives a very special Smile
From my Lord Supreme.

23703

I keep obedience-joy
All the time
In my heart-pocket.

23704

The crisis comes
Because we are not always
For God.

23705

When I offer my gratitude
To God,
He comes down
With a sky full of Blessings.

23706

Disobedience
Is
A falling and failing life.

23707

I do not want to have
A voice of my own.
God’s Voice is my voice.

23708

God not only gives us
New dreams.
He also gives us back
Our old dreams.

23709

God is absolutely mine
As long as my heart loves Him
And my life needs Him.

23710

My life is in between
My mind’s God-enthusiasm
And
My heart’s God-eagerness.

23711

The moment we see
Doubt-weeds in the mind,
We must burn them to ashes
Immediately.

23712

When I am in my heart,
I sing Heaven-songs.

23713

When I am in my soul,
I write earth-stories.

23714

Before we start God-manifestation,
Our life must be founded upon
The pillars of God’s Will.

23715

God does not want anybody
To faint
With God-hunger.

23716

God wants everybody
To smile, run and fly
With God-hunger.

23717

God is mine.
This gives me
Abundant pride.

23718

I am God’s.
This gives me
Boundless joy.

23719

We reach Heaven
Not because of
Our good deeds on earth,
But because of
God’s continuous Blessing-Rains.

23720

I know why
God came to me.
He came for the fragrance
Of my heart-beauty.

23721

I know why
God came to me.
He came to conquer
My heart-tears
And win my life-smiles.

23722

The strength
Of a greatness-mind
Is very limited.

23723

The power
Of a goodness-heart
Is unlimited.

23724

Today’s God-anger-mind
Tomorrow becomes
My peace-heart-slave.

23725

My sorrowful heart,
Cheer up!
Stand up!
Lo, God is smiling at you.

23726

Jealousy,
You are knocking
At the wrong door.

23727

Impurity,
You are not the right person
For me to play with.

23728

There shall come a time
When my ego
Shall shed tears
At my Lord’s Feet.

23729

Infinity’s Shore
Is beckoning
My self-giving heart.

23730

Devotion
Can catch God.

23731

Devotion
Can bind God.

23732

Devotion
Can do anything
With God.

23733

God’s Wealth
Fascinates
The mind.

23734

God’s Wealth
Inspires
The heart.

23735

The last time I looked at God,
He was unhappy
With my doubting mind.

23736

This time when I look at God,
I see Him flying
With measureless Satisfaction.

23737

How do we expect
God’s Presence
If we fail to make God
The absolute priority
In our life?

23738

I am
My goal-oriented
Heart.

23739

I am
My soul-centred
Life.

23740

Keep your mouth
And eyes closed.
Let your heart speak
To God.

23741

I do not want to become
Another God.
I just want to be
God-Eternity’s slave.

23742

The God in Heaven
Belongs to
Our sorrowful heart.

23743

The mind
Does not believe in
The heart-smiles.

23744

The heart
Does not believe in
The mind-smiles.

23745

Who cares what this world
Thinks of me,
As long as I know
My heart is only
For God.

23746

God has told me
Where He secretly lives.
He secretly lives
Inside my heart-tears.

23747

When I place
My heart’s gratitude-tears
At the Feet
Of my Lord Supreme,
He blesses me with a garland
Of His Heart-Smiles.

23748

Since God has created
My life,
He has every right
To claim me.

23749

God’s Smiles
Or man’s tears:
It is all one.

23750

An hour of aspiration
Should be
An hour of illumination.

23751

To worry
Is
To disbelieve.

23752

To disbelieve
Is
To fail.

23753

To fail
Is
To disgrace
Our earth-existence.

23754

Surrender,
Surrender everything
To God’s Will.
You will become a God-lover
Par excellence.

23755

What can be as beautiful
As my aspiration-heart?
Nothing.

23756

Do not form any opinion
Of yourself.
Wait and see
What God has to say.

23757

There was a time
When I used
Ignorance-microscope.
From now on
I shall use only
Wisdom-macroscope.

23758

Alas,
My mind wants to bind
The omnipresent God.

23759

God comes to my heart
And says,
“My child, bind Me
To your heart’s content.”

23760

The human life
Is confined
To the boundaries
Of the fleeting moment.

23761

Simplicity
Is
The beauty of life.

23762

Without a soulfulness-heart,
We cannot have
Peace of mind.

23763

God’s Compassion-Eye
And His Forgiveness-Heart
Every day move around
Incognito.

23764

The devotion of the heart
Has to sweeten and enlighten
The mind.

23765

Determination
Knows
No defeat.

23766

My God-obedience
Is my heart’s
God-oneness-victory.

23767

Any progress
In any field
Gives us unending joy.

23768

The heart’s devotion-songs
Please both humanity
And divinity.

23769

The mind hesitates.
It sees stop lights
Everywhere.

23770

The heart runs and runs.
It sees nowhere
Any stop lights.

23771

Patience-light
Is bound to illumine
The darkness
Of ignorance-night.

23772

There is no thrill as soulful
And as powerful
As the Arrival-of-God-thrill.

23773

Every day
God wants me to play
Haunting melodies
On my heart-flute.

23774

A self-giving life
Is the beauty
Of the twinkling stars.

23775

Once your heart
Starts running,
Never slow down.

23776

Alas,
The moment a human being
Enters into the world,
He suffers from
Ignorance-invasion.

23777

The splendour
Of a surrender-life
Knows no equal.

23778

My Lord,
I cannot change Your Mind,
But You can change my mind.
Please do it now
And forever.

23779

Whenever my heart-garden
Invites my Lord’s Eye,
It immediately comes.

23780

My Supreme Lord,
Do You not see
That I need You badly,
I need You immediately?
Please delay not!

23781

Believe it or not,
My heart is pleasing God
In His own Way
All the time.

23782

Alas,
God-given opportunities
Our stupid, clever mind
Discards.

23783

God enjoys deeply
The fragrance
Of my faith in Him.

23784

God’s Eye
Is
The place of peace.

23785

God’s Heart
Is
The place of forgiveness.

23786

Ignorance-night
Disappears
The moment faith-light
Appears.

23787

Alas,
Old friends
Can easily become
Sworn enemies.

23788

The pride of the mind hides
When the soul appears
With all its illumining light.

23789

My heart
Is the home
For my dreams.

23790

My soul
Is the home
For realities.

23791

In the tiniest blink of an eye,
God can give us
His Infinity’s Light, Delight
And Peace.

23792

We must all be swift of foot
And dauntless
In the battlefield of life.

23793

Doubts
Shall eventually perish
Like strangers
In the heart-land.

23794

May my heart-bird
Fly
Into the stars.

23795

The tear
That silently falls,
God blessingfully keeps
And treasures.

23796

Self-offering
Is
An imperishable achievement.

23797

The moment
My heart-song begins,
God’s Golden Gate
Opens up.

23798

I am not afraid of
The fate that is written
On my forehead,
For I know the Compassion-Eye
Of my Lord Supreme
At any time can erase it.

23799

Constant self-offering
Is the easiest way
To peace.

23800

My Lord’s very Name
Is the journey
Of my heart-boat
Towards the Unknowable.

23801

My life
Is caught between
The needy and the greedy.

23802

God’s Eye
Is lovable,
But His Heart
Is unfathomable.

23803

Just between you and me:
God cares only for you and me
And nobody else.

23804

God’s unsolicited advisors
Are available
Everywhere.

23805

God’s expected servitors
Are nowhere.

23806

God tells me
That I am unpardonable
Only when I tell Him
That I am untouchable.

23807

O my mind and vital,
Slow down!
Life is not a race.
Life is God’s Grace.

23808

My guardian angel
Protects me
Twenty-four hours a day.

23809

Pray to God soulfully today.
Tomorrow you may not get
The same chance.

23810

A mind hired to pray to God
Gets tired very easily
And very quickly.

23811

For true perfection,
Follow only
God’s Direction.

23812

An unconditional
God-surrender-life
Is halfway up to Heaven.

23813

We cannot understand anything
Properly,
But we do have the capacity
To love everything
Soulfully.

23814

I long for God-Touch.
God longs for
My heart-smile.

23815

The deeper I dig,
The surer I become
Of my spiritual life.

23816

God loves me dearly,
Even when I go to His Palace
Uninvited.

23817

Inside my mind,
God is all alert.

23818

Inside God’s Heart,
I am all alert.

23819

I always choose crying
Over smiling.

23820

I am extremely eager
To see
God’s Feet.

23821

God is extremely eager
To feel
My heart.

23822

I pray to God
To scold me ruthlessly
When He sees even an iota
Of disobedience-mind.

23823

Devotion-tears
Succeed
When everything else
Fails.

23824

There is no crime
That God’s Grace
Cannot erase.

23825

The heart reveals
What the face conceals.

23826

Each time I hear the sound
Of God’s Footfalls,
I become immediately breathless
And deathless.

23827

The only thing
That concerns me
Is God’s Pleasure.

23828

My Lord,
Make me a perfect stranger
To curiosity.

23829

Obedience inner and outer
Is the greatest
Spiritual achievement.

23830

Like God’s Forgiveness,
May my gratitude also work
Around the clock.

23831

Nothing makes sense to me,
Save God’s Compassion-Eye.

23832

Ego-love
Is dangerous
In every way.

23833

Let there be only
The play of light,
And not the interplay
Of light and shade.

23834

Age has no power
To decrease desire.

23835

Aspiration knows
Only inevitability
And not possibility.

23836

To illumine my heart,
What I need
Is my Master’s strictness
And not his closeness.

23837

Never allow
Your inner courage
To desert you.

23838

Never allow yourself
To be weighed down
By depression-vital
And frustration-mind.

23839

I feel the crying earth
Deserves
A climbing fate.

23840

Every moment
Is the perfect moment
To love God
And to pray to God.

23841

God’s favourite form
Of amusement
Is collecting earth-smiles
And Heaven-Tears.

23842

When God gets really angry
At the world,
He speaks to Himself
At the top of His Voice.

23843

When greatness surrenders
To goodness,
God-nearness
Is immediately available.

23844

We must know
God’s Will,
Both intimately and immediately.

23845

God-enlightenment
Is a stranger
To the mind-excitement.

23846

Alas,
The unaspiring mind
Is quite often torn
With indecision.

23847

My Lord accepts
Even a much-delayed apology
From my heart.

23848

The divine
May take holidays.
The undivine, never.

23849

Nothing suffers
As much as
The desiring mind.

23850

My Lord,
Do feed my heart
With infinitely more purity.

23851

My Lord,
Do feed my heart
With infinitely more sincerity.

23852

My Lord,
Will You ever be pleased
With my tears?
“My child,
I shall be pleased with your tears
If you give Me your smiles first.”

23853

Every morning my heart sings
With the rising sun.
Every evening my soul dances
With the twinkling stars.

23854

God is always eager
To solve our problems,
But alas,
We do not give Him the chance.

23855

We must pray and meditate
Even when we do not see any need
In our outer life.

23856

Our love, devotion and surrender
We must every morning
Renew.

23857

Alas,
We all cry and weep
In our own self-made prison.

23858

In our gratitude-heart
We feel
God’s Presence.

23859

In God’s Forgiveness
We see at once
Our past, present and future.

23860

Prayer and meditation
Must be practised,
Not only during a crisis
But all the time.

23861

God wants everybody
To fly and fly
In His Heart-Sky.

23862

If we claim God
To be our All,
Then He does not allow us
To fall.

23863

In the improvement
Of the mind,
The heart gets boundless joy.

23864

For God to forget us
Is nothing short of
Impossibility.

23865

Each wrong thought
Takes us one step away
From Paradise.

23866

God wants us
To pin all our hopes
On Him alone.

23867

God feeds
On our heart-smiles
And heart-tears.

23868

Be careful,
O careless mind!
Do not overtax
God’s patience.

23869

He who worries all the time
Will never be accepted by God
As His warrior.

23870

Self-surrender
Is the only thing
That gives my soul joy.

23871

A man of faith
Gets boundless joy
By saying “Yes”.

23872

A man of doubt
Gets boundless pleasure
By saying “No”.

23873

Heart-meditation
Is
Life-elevation.

23874

Belief has
Another name:
Relief.

23875

The mind calls it
God-discovery.
The soul calls it
Wisdom-recovery.

23876

The vital
Has to stop demanding
Ceaselessly.

23877

The movement of the body
Is
The improvement of life.

23878

Do not ask questions
If you are not going to be satisfied
With the answers.

23879

The mind’s ingratitude
Destroys the beauty
Of the heart.

23880

My soul has been pleading
With my heart
For a very long time
To turn towards God.

23881

He who has enthusiasm
In abundance
Is, indeed, a God-champion.

23882

Without complete surrender
To God’s Will,
Nobody can sing
The God-realisation-song.

23883

If you want to manifest God,
You must need aspiration-tears
And dedication-smiles
In boundless measure.

23884

May my heart-nest
Always keep
A gratitude-bird.

23885

We must bring to the fore
All our divine qualities
And shine with them.

23886

My way of perfection
And God’s way of perfection
Can be totally different.

23887

Only my happiness in the inner world
And
God’s Happiness in the higher world
Can be of great service
To mankind.

23888

The human mind
Treasures its old age.
It does not want to play with God,
The eternal Player.

23889

Darkness-night
I definitely was.
Illumination-light
I invariably am.

23890

God wants to establish two things
In my life:
Friendship and partnership.

23891

God dearly loves
My sleepless
Dedication-days.

23892

O stupid mind,
Do you not have
Anything better to do
Than to worry about
Your future?

23893

We must disperse
All our worry-clouds
In our heart-sky.

23894

My mind’s
Empty barrenness
Is shocking.

23895

My heart’s
Fulness-delight
Is most astonishing.

23896

God’s Victory-Song
Was composed by God Himself,
Long before He created
The universe.

23897

O seeker,
Ignorance-sleep
Is not meant for you
Any more.

23898

No more mind-dictatorship.
My God-loyalty more,
Ever more.

23899

My heart’s devotion-songs
Stir
My Lord’s Heart.

23900

God wants me to be
A fulfilled satisfaction
Of His Vision-Eye.

23901

Alas,
When will I ever know
How important it is
To please
My Lord Supreme?

23902

I love the very depth
Of my Lord’s
Compassion-flooded Will.

23903

Happily every morning
My heart reaches out
Towards the Will
Of my Beloved Supreme.

23904

I do dare to give my all.
I do dare to place everything
At the Feet
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme.

23905

There is no way to fool God.
When we try to fool God,
We fool ourselves ruthlessly.

23906

God begs us
To gaze into His Eye
Of Compassion
Even for a fleeting second.

23907

When I have a deep meditation,
Then only can I truly know
What is important to God
And what is not important to God.

23908

I am another God.
This is God’s
Most intimate Secret.

23909

Each seeker
Promptly must attend
To his God-service.

23910

When you say
That you take endless pains
To please God,
It is the height of your stupidity.

23911

The infinite Truth
Will ultimately be known
Without fail.

23912

Cynicism blocks
Our heart’s
Progress-road.

23913

We run away from
God’s Compassion-Eye,
But do we ever succeed
In escaping?

23914

If we do not appreciate
God’s Hour,
God’s Hour is not going to wait
For us.

23915

He who is wise
Flies with Time
And never from it.

23916

Blessed are those
Who consciously and prayerfully
Return
To the heart of the Beyond.

23917

Like my heart,
My life has become a pillar
In the temple
Of God’s Will.

23918

I do not know
And I do not want to know
Why my love for God
Is every day increasing.

23919

The longest journey
Is always
The inner journey.
This journey knows no beginning
And no end.

23920

Every day
We must consciously
Distance ourselves
From the domain of negativity.

23921

My Lord, with His open Arms,
Is welcoming
My surrender-life.

23922

Obedience
Is the supreme secret
To please God
In His own Way.

23923

I do not have to look after
My life.
My Lord does it for me
All the time.

23924

If we do not please God
With our selfless zeal,
Then it is as bad
As not pleasing God
At all.

23925

My gratitude-heart
Has a very prominent place
In God’s Heart-Garden.

23926

Alas, we are not aware
Of the fact
That our Lord Supreme
At every moment
Bestows divine gifts upon us.

23927

I eagerly place myself
And my eagerness-will
At the Feet
Of my Lord Supreme.

23928

My aspiration-heart
Is frequented
By God’s blissful Eye.

23929

If we really love God,
Then His Will becomes
Tangible and visible.

23930

If you are determined
To please God at any cost,
Then God-realisation cannot remain
A far cry.

23931

There is no problem
That God-surrender
Cannot solve.

23932

We must prayerfully
And soulfully open the letter
Of God’s highest Will.

23933

It is high time for us to exercise
Our heart-power
And no more our mind-power.

23934

Every day
God asks my soul
To take dictation from Him.

23935

Everything has
A deeper reality —
And my heart believes in it.

23936

My heart’s inner silence only
Has the capacity
To silence the outer sound.

23937

Do not invite pleasure.
It will destroy you
Before long.

23938

Where can you find
Peace of mind,
If not in the Eye
Of our Lord Supreme?

23939

Never use
The mind-boat.
It is not safe at all.

23940

My heart thrives only
On God-attention.

23941

Be at every moment
A God-adventure-lover
To fly on the wings
Of positive thoughts.

23942

God uses His Love-Net
Every day, every hour,
Every second
To catch the seeker-hearts.

23943

I serve my Lord
With my eagerness-eyes
And eagerness-hands.

23944

My will
Has a special place:
God’s Feet.

23945

Since God and His Will
Were not born yesterday,
They can easily take care of us.

23946

As a thirsty man
Longs for water,
My heart is thirsty
For my Lord Beloved Supreme.

23947

Acceptance
Is what life means
To God.

23948

Ignorance-battlefield
And ignorance-soldiers
Can be seen everywhere.

23949

If we jump into our duties
With all our eagerness-gratitude-fulness,
God-realisation will not remain
A far cry.

23950

May my heart-garden
Gleam
With secret and sacred treasures.

23951

At long last
My heart-faith has silenced
My mind-doubts.

23952

God’s Compassion-Voice
Rings out
In the wilderness.

23953

Fame does not go to Heaven.
Our heart’s oneness-game only
Goes to Heaven.

23954

I love God-Whispers
More than anything else.

23955

With my inspiration-mind,
I come to
My aspiration-home.

23956

With my aspiration-heart,
I go to
God’s Palace.

23957

Silence
Is a close relative
Of peace.

23958

I must make
My philosophy applicable
To my life.

23959

Worldliness-mind
And spirituality-heart
Are two perfect strangers.

23960

May my dedication-life
Revolve around
My Lord’s Compassion-Eye.

23961

There is only one prayer-cry,
And that prayer-cry
Is to embody God.

23962

Once again
God wants me to be myself
Inside His Compassion-Heart.

23963

When my mind
Wants me to be a visionary,
I vehemently protest.

23964

When my heart
Wants me to be a saint,
I immediately jump up with joy.

23965

My Lord,
Where can I find You
Inside my life?
“My child,
You can find Me easily
Inside your heart.”

23966

God ceaselessly whispers
Fondness to me
And wants me to do the same.

23967

Godliness means
A God-oneness-life.

23968

God wants me
To find Him again
Inside my heart-cries
And nowhere else.

23969

Impurity
Strangles us.

23970

Purity
Struggles with us.

23971

When we listen
To God’s Footsteps
Devotedly,
We take a million steps
Towards our Heavenly abode.

23972

To hear our soul’s message,
We must first establish friendship
With our heart.

23973

Happiness is our return
To our long-sought
Heaven-home.

23974

My joy loves to live with God
And in God,
And nowhere else.

23975

I must play
For many hours a day
With my soul-child.

23976

The moment I touch
God’s Feet,
My life pulsates
With joy ineffable.

23977

The mind always turns
A deaf ear
To my heart-flute.

23978

If you want to unite yourself
With God’s Will,
First you must reunite
With yourself.

23979

God’s invisibility
Is not
A permanent thing.

23980

Man’s ignorance-life
Proudly relishes
Its own self-sufficiency.

23981

We must love equally
God the One
And God the many.

23982

The real God-prayer
Lives
Even long after death.

23983

Our prayers
Follow God
Far beyond death.

23984

My Lord,
Do find me once again
Inside my purity-heart.

23985

A negativity-mind
And a peace-heart
Are like the North Pole
And the South Pole.

23986

God cannot believe
His Eye and Ears
In regard to my
God-unwillingness-mind.

23987

Every day and every moment
Is a very special gift
From Above.

23988

I want to think the way
My Lord Supreme thinks —
This world is heading towards
Perfection.

23989

Every day God presents us
With new ways
To fulfil Him on earth.

23990

God asks
Only my surrender
What it actually needs.

23991

My heart is always in need of
More of the Feet-dust
Of my Lord Supreme.

23992

Every day I feast
On God-Forgiveness-Light
And Delight.

23993

Even God is anxious to know
What I do daily
For the betterment
Of humanity.

23994

To have curiosity in our mind
To see God
Is, indeed, a rare thing.

23995

I am extremely eager
To fulfil
My Lord’s slightest desire.

23996

My Lord,
I definitely know
You cannot escape
From my longing heart-cage.

23997

The outer world
Is a constant problem
For the inner world.

23998

God definitely forgives the mind
When it truly craves
For God’s Forgiveness-Feet.

23999

If the vital truly wants
To serve God,
Then the vital has to be all the time
With the heart.

24000

Alas, I am afraid of God.
Therefore I hide.
What does God want?
He wants me to ride with Him
In His own Chariot
Instead of hiding.
