Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees, part 26

Return to the table of contents

25001

I have accepted
The spiritual life
In all sincerity.

25002

For me,
There is no
Turning back.

25003

The aspiration-intensity
To please God every day
I need.

25004

Alas,
Each morning begins
With heartbreaking news.

25005

Each time a seeker
Disobeys his Master
Is an added obstruction
To the Master’s will.

25006

Self-discovery-eagerness
Has to be uppermost
In a seeker’s life.

25007

As soon as
My prayer is sincere,
I become radiant.

25008

If we are not determined
To please God in His own Way,
Then we can make
No substantial progress
In our spiritual life.

25009

A spiritual life means:
It is now
Or never.

25010

Self-doubt
Brings in
An Himalayan disaster.

25011

The mind
Is always short of
Aspiration-flames.

25012

Self-abnegation
God does not want
From us.

25013

God’s choice
Is our
Self-dedication.

25014

God does not want us
To amplify
Our problems.

25015

God wants us to conquer
Our problems
With our life’s constant
Dedication-smiles.

25016

God wants me to smile at Him
All the time,
And what do I do?
I give Him my tearful eyes
And sorrowful heart instead.

25017

Frustration
Is not your friend.

25018

Frustration
Is your worst enemy.

25019

Frustration-enemy
Always follows you.

25020

If you do not aspire,
Yours will be the life
Of broken promises.

25021

God needs from a seeker
Only
A genuine humility.

25022

We are supposed
To practise
God-remembrance.

25023

We are practising,
Alas,
God-oblivion.

25024

We all need extra
Protection-precautions
To save our spiritual life.

25025

Each undivine thought
Is our heart’s
Happiness-slayer.

25026

If you want to excel in
The advanced spirituality-course,
Practise a God-surrender-life
Every day.

25027

If you do not have
Peace of mind,
Your peace talks
Will be futile.

25028

Somehow,
God has very special Concern
For even a scatterbrained seeker.

25029

God’s Pride knows no bounds
When we are equal
To any pressure.

25030

We must not sacrifice
Perfection-delight
For the fastest speed.

25031

Each seeker
Is bound for
The Golden Shore.

25032

Alas, my own anxiety
Has made my life
An insurmountable adversity.

25033

The moment we lose faith
In ourselves,
We become
Hopelessly lost seekers.

25034

I have come to realise
That both God’s Justice-Light
And Compassion-Height
Are at once inescapable.

25035

A flicker of disappointment
Is enough
For the seeker to descend
Unimaginably low.

25036

To miss an opportunity
Is to invite
Our untold misfortune.

25037

By nature, the mind is doubtful.
Therefore, O seeker,
Be careful with your mind.

25038

My heart’s ecstasy
Is my life’s
Only thrill.

25039

A life of success
Depends
On determination.

25040

A life of progress
Depends
On surrender.

25041

Spirituality
Is not hardship.

25042

Spirituality
Is God-friendship.

25043

Spirituality
Means one’s own
Highest worship.

25044

Spirituality
Means the life’s
Impurity-rejection.

25045

Spirituality
Means the heart’s
Insecurity-rejection.

25046

Spirituality
Means the mind’s
Indifference-rejection.

25047

No demand!
God is far beyond
Our demands.

25048

Cry for God’s
Compassion-Eye.
It is within our easy reach.

25049

When my heart
Wishes to see God,
It is all free.

25050

When my mind
Wants to see God,
God charges
An exorbitant fee.

25051

My Lord’s
Every Step
My heart treasures.

25052

Although it is extremely difficult
To tame the wild mind,
We must succeed.

25053

God’s Compassion-Eye
Can fulfil His highest Promises
In and through us.

25054

If I am a sincere seeker,
Then I shall never take back
Any of my God-fulfilment-promises.

25055

Each new seeker
Has to carry with him
Eagerness-abundance.

25056

The mind loves frowns
Infinitely more
Than it loves smiles.

25057

My Lord,
I do hear Your Call,
But alas,
I do not respond.

25058

Every day we must cultivate
Our inner strength
To run the fastest
In our spiritual life.

25059

The outer search
For happiness
Is a fruitless search.

25060

By virtue of faith,
We become
A God-winner.

25061

My desire-mind
Always carries
Sorrow-burdens.

25062

My soul is satisfied
Only with my heart’s
First-class God-devotion.

25063

My Lord is desperately looking
For a gratitude-flower
In my heart-garden.

25064

A heart
Without faith
Is empty of beauty.

25065

If you devour
The dust of God’s Feet,
Then ignorance will be
A perfect stranger to you.

25066

Ignorance-experiences
Are false coins
Today.

25067

Ignore nothing.
Everything
Is God-sent.

25068

Each life-story
Is for the glorification
Of God.

25069

Patience
Secretly and sacredly
Moves forward.

25070

My heart
Feeds on
My God-gratitude-tears.

25071

The fragrance
Of a God-surrender-day
Is beyond comparison.

25072

My heart’s sincerity
Is
My life-changer.

25073

Patience is a solid wall
Against
Ignorance-demands.

25074

Each birthday
Can be a rebirth for us
To be in God’s Presence.

25075

Every day
Even a small clearing
Is needed
In our mind-jungle.

25076

O seeker,
You have far better things to do
Than to bombard your Master
With all your doubts and suspicions.

25077

Desire-drinks
Are very
Inexpensive.

25078

Aspiration-drinks
Are unimaginably
Expensive.

25079

In total surrender,
The thinking mind
Is useless.

25080

I am not; You are!
This is my only choice.

25081

My criticising mind
Makes everything uncertain
In my life.

25082

Eventually
Doubt destroys its possessor:
The mind.

25083

Each desire
Eventually becomes
Treacherous.

25084

We satisfy our desires
By our immediate
Acceptance of desires.

25085

Negativity is unreality
In the purest sense
Of the term.

25086

God wants me to show Him
What I have in my heart
And not show off
What I have in my mind.

25087

God’s Compassion-Eye
Lights
My heart-lamp.

25088

If we do not pray
And meditate every day,
We shall definitely be caught
By temptation-aggression.

25089

Gratitude reverberates
Within my heart
When I see the Dreams
Of my Lord Supreme.

25090

Simplicity
And sincerity
Are always refreshing.

25091

When my heart sings
God-devotion-songs,
God blesses me
With a bridge to Infinity.

25092

God does not want us
To prove our love for Him
As long as we are loving ourselves
In a divine way.

25093

Like my heart,
My mind also has to be
God-oriented.

25094

Being rooted in God’s Compassion-Eye,
My soul and I are flying
In God’s Compassion-Sky.

25095

If we do not train our mind
To do the right thing,
Our God-fulfilment
Will remain
A mental hallucination.

25096

If you cannot depend
On your Master’s promise,
Then it is useless for you
To be on his path.

25097

God’s Feet-dust
Is available everywhere.
To mingle with it
Is the greatest security.

25098

Once we accept the spiritual life,
God-realisation
Becomes an inevitability.

25099

Do not blame God
When your high hopes
Are dashed
By your questioning mind.

25100

My failure-life
Is my responsibility
And not God’s —
Not even for a fleeting moment.

25101

The uncertainty-seeker
Is plagued by
Many disturbing thoughts.

25102

Mine is the heart
That houses faith
To share with
The rest of the world.

25103

Slowly, steadily and unerringly
I must sail my life-boat
To perfection-land.

25104

It is I and nobody else
Who can protect
My heart of peace.

25105

If we do not say
Our obedience-life-prayers
Every day,
We shall meet with misfortune-days
Quite often.

25106

In the spiritual life,
Anything that is hostile
Is unacceptable.

25107

Aspiration
Increases.
Desire-danger
Diminishes.

25108

There is no
Adequate replacement
For gratitude.

25109

Only our true love of God
Can immobilise
Our desire-train.

25110

Each undivine thought
Creates a murky future
For humanity.

25111

The mind enjoys
Expectation-invitation.

25112

God tells me that
My mind’s ego-evolution
Is overdue.

25113

My Lord,
Encircle my heart
With Your Safety-Smile.

25114

Never leave home
Without carrying your Lord
In your heart-pocket.

25115

I am determined to establish
A firm
God-foundation-life.

25116

To make myself happy,
I live far beyond the domain
Of expectation.

25117

To me,
Earth-tears are sweeter and stronger
Than Heaven-smiles.

25118

Out of His infinite Bounty,
God has considerably lessened
My self-comfort-hunger.

25119

I came into the world
To bridge my nothingness-life
To God’s Fulness-Heart.

25120

At every moment
Be a perfection-life
Unto yourself.

25121

Human life itself
Is
An unanswerable question.

25122

The mind’s
Zigzag pathway
Never reaches Heaven.

25123

When we do not pray and meditate,
We lead
An insecurity-sealed life.

25124

When the mind and the heart
Talk together amicably,
God proudly joins them.

25125

He who has served God unreservedly
This year will win
A “Seeker of the Year” award.

25126

God vehemently dislikes
My rush visits
To my heart-temple.

25127

No longer do I enjoy
The company
Of my old desire-life.

25128

He who neglects
The inner homework
Will definitely fail
In his outer life.

25129

Humanity’s transformation
Entirely depends on the strength
Of Divinity’s shoulders.

25130

The heart of each spiritual Master
Suffers the crushing sorrows
Of millennia
When he tries to transform
Humanity’s face.

25131

My Lord,
I beg You only for one thing:
Save my spiritual life,
My only life.

25132

Surrender your all to God’s Will.
You will never stop short
Of reaching your Goal.

25133

My eyes are wide open,
My heart is wide open,
My ears are wide open.
Lo, God is come.

25134

Doubt stands
As a formidable problem
For all seekers.

25135

God’s Presence in our life
Is a golden opportunity
To enrich ourselves
Both inwardly and outwardly.

25136

My soul laughs and laughs
When it sees that the mind
Takes doubt as its wisdom.

25137

My prayers and meditations
Must outrace
My faithless enemies:
Doubt, insecurity and jealousy.

25138

Do not pay any attention
To the earth-bound facts
If you want to be illumined
By your inner sun.

25139

Creation is constant motion —
Inner and outer.

25140

Creation needs
Perpetual inner progress
And outer success.

25141

The Source-meal
Is comprised of
Eternity’s Height
And
Infinity’s Delight.

25142

Death does not mean
A God-oneness-embrace.

25143

Death means
The awakening
Of an unknown life.

25144

The heart of Light
Is so vast
That it gladly welcomes darkness.

25145

Humanity, wake up!
Stand up! March on!
You are no longer
In your infancy.

25146

The soul
Is always accompanied by
Purity’s heart
And
Divinity’s Eye.

25147

The world-citizens
Know what things to do
But do not know what to become.

25148

We are such fools.
We think that we are wide awake,
But in reality
We are all buried in oblivion-sleep.

25149

I tell my mind
It is unthinkable
That it indulges in war.

25150

What is unthinkable
Is also unpardonable.

25151

The soul and bliss
Remain always
Inseparable.

25152

I am proud
Of my soul’s beauty
In Heaven.

25153

My soul is proud
Of my duty
On earth.

25154

The material body
Is of supreme need
To manifest
God-Divinity on earth.

25155

When we make friends
With doubt,
We give our lives to
Abysmal lies.

25156

A life of sincerity
Is a mind of clarity.

25157

Do you love religion?
If so, then become
Its faithful student
And not its powerful teacher.

25158

A desire-bound life
Needs constant repair.

25159

Patience does not mind
Remaining blind to the end
For world-transformation.

25160

Optimism-vision
Is a supreme necessity-step
To God-realisation.

25161

O my mind,
Do not forget that
Your life is also
A God-manifestation-promise.

25162

At Heaven’s gate
Great human beings
Are welcome.

25163

At Heaven’s gate
Good human beings
Are immediately embraced
By God Himself.

25164

Do not try to count
The number of God’s Concerns —
An impossible task!

25165

Meditations shoo
Mind-disturbances
Away.

25166

Each delay
Takes us a year away
From God’s Presence.

25167

Mundane thinking
Is a sinking boat.

25168

Do not go back.
Use the forward track
To reach
The Destination.

25169

My angel-heart
Is always
Free of danger.

25170

No matter how fast
Or how slow I am,
I always take my Lord’s
Inimitable Advice.

25171

When we replace God
With our gold,
Our souls become
The sufferers untold.

25172

Each desire-night
Strengthens
Ignorance-might.

25173

What to do?
Invoke.

25174

What to invoke?
God’s Bliss-flooded Feet.

25175

He who boasts
In his outer life
Is a totally lost case
In his inner life.

25176

Never give up!
Dive deep within.
God is eagerly waiting
For you.

25177

My only joy in life:
God is in charge.

25178

It seems that nobody
Likes to accept happily
God’s peace-invitation.

25179

Do not blame God.
Still there is time for God
To halt
Your ignorance-night-march.

25180

Insecurity
Sumptuously feeds
All my undivine qualities.

25181

My heart is commissioned
Into
God’s divine Army.

25182

Self-indulgence
Leads to
Life-destruction.

25183

The body, the vital, the mind
And even the heart
May be tricked,
But never the soul
In the battlefield of life.

25184

The heart
Is apt to cry
Like a baby.

25185

The soul
Is apt to fly
Like a bird.

25186

The Hands of the Supreme
Are
Our fortune-makers.

25187

He who mourns
The death of ignorance
Is, indeed,
Ignorance incarnate.

25188

Not easily
Can a vital-whim
Be made to subside.

25189

An Affection-Touch of God
Sends an immortal thrill
Through the seeker.

25190

Unimaginable concern
For his disciples —
This is what the Master’s
Outer life is.

25191

Unimaginable affection
For his disciples —
This is what the Master’s
Inner life is.

25192

I know
How to delay
Unnecessarily.

25193

God knows
How to wait for me
Indefinitely.

25194

The human in me disappears
The very moment
God beckons me.

25195

Doubt alone knows
How to rush
Into the darkness-mind
And be its partner.

25196

I am not immortal,
But the tears
Of my aspiration-heart
And the smiles
Of my dedication-life
Are immortal.

25197

Nothing
Is as sweet
As my gratitude-heart-tears.

25198

My mind,
Be extremely cautious
So that you are never
Found to be wrong.

25199

God says to me,
“My child, you have failed
By following your own way.
Can you not try My Way?
I am absolutely sure
That you will succeed.”

25200

O my desiring mind,
Do not run away.
God has not yet given up on you.
At God’s choice Hour
You will become,
Like the soul and the heart,
A choice instrument of God’s Will.

25201

My mind,
I dare to believe
That God still loves you.

25202

Everyone will ultimately arrive
At God’s Heart-Palace,
But those who aspire
Will definitely arrive
Infinitely sooner.

25203

Negativity
Is another name
For deliberate negligence.

25204

God enjoys
The warm climate
Of our gratitude-heart.

25205

My God-surrender
Is finally complete.

25206

Never be afraid of God’s Ways.
God’s Ways only give us liberation
From the snares of ignorance.

25207

God’s Compassion-Forgiveness-Rain
I desperately need.

25208

I implore God
To impose His Will
Upon me
At every moment.

25209

It is impossible for God
To withdraw
His Compassion.

25210

God’s Forgiveness-Footprints
I treasure
In the depths of my heart.

25211

Each human heart
Is tightly, not loosely, connected
With God’s Heart.

25212

I serve God
With my ever-transcending
Love and devotion.

25213

The mind loves
The art
Of complication.

25214

The heart loves
The art
Of utter simplicity.

25215

Do not excavate
Yesterday’s ruthless
And useless cave.

25216

Tomorrow’s dreams
Can be within the reach
Of today.

25217

When we can see Eternity
In fleeting time,
We make the fastest
Spiritual progress.

25218

We must feel that each moment
Is shorter than the previous one,
So that we can be faster
In our spiritual approach
To God.

25219

God criticises me and insults me.
Why?
Because He takes me
As His own, very own.

25220

God begs me
To stop and rest
Upon His Nectar-Lap.
Alas, all in vain.

25221

Our faith in God
Helps us to avoid
Dangerous inner calamities.

25222

I must learn
What God’s Heart wants
From my heart.

25223

I must learn
What God’s Eye does not want
From my eyes.

25224

Obedience:
The difference between
Heaven-rapture
And
Hell-torture.

25225

My mind,
Stand up and say
That you are all God’s.

25226

Nothing is over
Until it is completely over,
According to God’s Eye.

25227

Two essential things:
Be spiritual
And
Be spiritual again and again.

25228

Each fleeting moment
Is extremely extraordinary
In our spiritual life.

25229

The morning sun
Says to me:
“I have God’s Message-Light
For you.”

25230

The evening star
Says to me:
“God is welcoming you.”

25231

Even the longest
Ignorance-night
Will someday end.

25232

My life
Is
A hope-moon.

25233

My heart
Is
A promise-sun.

25234

God’s Nectar-Feet —
Not for the chosen few
But for all.

25235

God-obedience
Has to be practical
And not theoretical.

25236

Every day
God supplies me
With new opportunities
To please Him
In His own Way.

25237

If you fall down
From one mountain cliff,
Then get ready immediately
To climb the next mountain.

25238

The mind loves
To enjoy
Speculation.

25239

The heart loves
To enjoy
God-satisfaction.

25240

My God-gratitude-heart
Is well protected
By Heavenly angels.

25241

Wherever I go,
God sends His Eye
To accompany me.

25242

We must please God
Every day,
Even in the tiniest details.

25243

The surprise of surprises:
My mind has finally surrendered
To God’s Will.

25244

My mind claims God
For its illumination.
God says He has never heard
Anything like this before.

25245

Falling down
Is not
Disgraceful.

25246

Not to try again
To climb up
Is, indeed, disgraceful.

25247

Our God-realisation-journey
Has infinite wonders
Along the way.

25248

For God’s Heart to win,
My heart has to cry
And
My life has to smile.

25249

My life is between
Earth-sent hope
And
Heaven-sent promise.

25250

Hope says:
“I can become.”

25251

Promise says:
“I already am.”

25252

God’s Forgiveness-Arms
Can catch anybody
He wants to.

25253

When I cry,
God tells me that I am
His fondest child.

25254

When I smile,
God tells me that I am
His bravest son.

25255

Each wrong thought
Can be as powerful
As dynamite.

25256

There is always something
Beautiful, soulful and powerful
To do.

25257

No distance can be
As far as
Yesterday’s mind.

25258

Take each day
As the very last day
Of your life.
This way you can make
The fastest progress.

25259

I must know that
Even the loftiest towers
Begin from the ground.

25260

God tells me
That He will feel sad
If I do not have
One particular thing:
A sense of humour.

25261

Time —
It is at once
Priceless and measureless.

25262

Each life
Is an unrehearsed
Cosmic play.

25263

May my life
Live between
My Lord’s Sayings
And His Doings.

25264

To doubt God’s Love
Is to shorten
One’s life-breath.

25265

Be happy!
Be happy!
You will always have time
To be unhappy later.

25266

I found out what God loves.
He loves only one thing:
My love.

25267

The mind
Suspects happiness.

25268

The heart
Creates happiness.

25269

My heart shares joys
To enjoy joy
To the fullest.

25270

When we are happy,
We go far beyond
The limitation-boundaries.

25271

Be a little more compassionate
Than needed.

25272

There is always time
To do the right thing
For the right person.

25273

Life is nothing
But perpetual preparation.

25274

My surrender-heart
Is
My life’s golden dawn.

25275

My Lord tells me that
He may publicly praise me
And criticise me in private.

25276

Well done
Is infinitely more significant
Than well said.

25277

You may fall down.
That does not mean
That you will not be able
To rebound again,
High, higher, highest.

25278

Never interfere
With a God-devotion-heart.

25279

A God-server
Is fortunate
Par excellence.

25280

Is there anybody
Who has not done something
To please God in His own Way?
No matter how small a step,
It is extremely significant.

25281

If you find something nice
To say about humanity,
Then God will have everything nice
To say about you.

25282

You may really and permanently fail
If you do not make
Further attempts.

25283

Self-giving
Has
No foreign accent.

25284

Success gets
What it greedily wants.

25285

Progress gets
What it desperately needs.

25286

My heart tries to feel
At every moment
God’s serving actions.

25287

A problem is not a burden
But an opportunity
In disguise.

25288

Let no day pass
Without smiling
At others.

25289

Nothing is unimportant.
Nothing is insignificant.
Nothing is meaningless
And worthless.

25290

With simplicity,
God starts
His Wisdom-Book.

25291

May each human being
Try to be a first-class citizen
Of God’s Universal Heart-Land.

25292

Time is meant to serve
God’s Will
And nothing else.

25293

Death is not a deadline.
It is the beginning
Of a new road.

25294

Alas, peace has become
An unwanted guest
In almost every earth-family.

25295

To vanquish negativity,
Only one thing
Is of paramount importance:
Love of the heart.

25296

My ego-mind
Dares.

25297

My oneness-heart
Cares.

25298

A sincere God-satisfaction-tear
Is what God desires
Above all else.

25299

Our constant God-devotion
Can solve all our problems,
Big and small.

25300

God revolves
Around our hearts.

25301

The mind revolves
Around itself.

25302

Not what we powerfully say
But how soulfully we say it
Is of supreme importance.

25303

Stay clear of
The negativity-mind
All the time.

25304

God finds it very strange
When I fail to please Him
With my sincerity-heart.

25305

When we live
In the heart,
God strengthens
Our heart.

25306

When we live
In the mind,
We weaken
Our very earth-existence.

25307

Every day
I must muster inner strength
To satisfy God
In His own Way.

25308

Each aspiration-tree
Eventually will reach
Its fullest height.

25309

God’s one and only desire
Is
My complete satisfaction
In all His Activities.

25310

Anything worldly
Tarnishes the brilliance
Of our spiritual life.

25311

God’s childlike innocence
Captures my total attention.

25312

God’s Compassion-Eye
Is always
His greatest Teaching.

25313

The human in us tells us
That we have blessed the world
By coming into the world.

25314

The divine in us tells us
That the world has blessed us
By bringing us into the world.

25315

It is our bounden duty
To help a drowning seeker in crisis
With our inspiration and aspiration.

25316

I am so happy that
My long-forgotten God-devotion-songs
I am learning once again.

25317

In the spiritual life,
If you can advance even by inches,
Then you are accomplishing something
Really great.

25318

The very thought of
Missing God’s Boat
Kills the sincere seekers.

25319

Alas, we do not wait happily
For God’s choice Hour
To arrive.

25320

The divine life
Has no finishing touch.

25321

My soul
Has appointed my heart
To be
My mind-watchman.

25322

When our helplessness
Is complete,
A new Light from Above
Descends.

25323

Our mind’s
Enthusiasm-supply
Must be inexhaustible.

25324

It is quite common
For the desire-mind
To suffer
From perpetual jealousy, anxiety
And insecurity.

25325

If we doubt all the time
God’s Existence on earth,
Then we are incorrigible seekers.

25326

When I make my mind
The boss of my life,
I suffer from the darkest
Confusion-nightmare.

25327

If we enjoy our self-doubt,
Then we retard our spiritual progress
Astonishingly.

25328

If we take our spiritual life
Seriously,
We can never be off duty.

25329

Reveal your weaknesses
Only to your soul
And your Lord Beloved Supreme.
They are the ones who can turn
Your weaknesses into strengths.

25330

My unconditional surrender
To God’s Will
Is the ever-shortening road
To God.

25331

No more hesitation-mind,
No more!

25332

No more insecurity-heart,
No more!

25333

No more aggression-vital,
No more!

25334

No more lethargy-life,
No more!

25335

God-service more,
Ever more!

25336

God-aspiration more,
Ever more!

25337

God-dedication more,
Ever more!

25338

God-manifestation more,
Ever more!

25339

A life of desire is
An uneventful life
In God’s Eye.

25340

Sleeplessly we must pray,
Breathlessly we must meditate.
Then only God’s Heart-Sanctuary
Will be at our disposal.

25341

Every small moment of victory
In pleasing God
Is of paramount importance
In our life.

25342

Loneliness
Is
Slow poison.

25343

I need God’s Life every day.
God needs my heart every day
Even more.

25344

Just to console me,
My soul tells me
That I should not be
Doomed to disappointment:
My soul also has made mistakes.

25345

My self-giving heart
Is
My Heaven-entry visa.

25346

God tells me that
My only home
Is God’s Silence-Heart.

25347

I belong
Only to God’s
Compassion-Heart-Society.

25348

God does not mind
If we take a detour,
But He does mind
If we give up spirituality.

25349

We are impossible fools —
We ask God
To change His Will.

25350

We came into the world
Only to please God
In His own Way.

25351

The less I fulfil myself,
The more I please
My Lord Supreme.

25352

Alas,
The dispute between
The mind and the heart
Proves to be mortal.

25353

Aspiration-ascent
Is meant
For every seeker.

25354

God’s Compassion-Eye
Is the only thing
That graces my life
Every day.

25355

When I meditate well,
God extends
My inner vision.

25356

God cannot stop laughing
At the mind’s
Dire pronouncements.

25357

Anticipation
Can be both torturous
And rapturous.

25358

In the world of silence,
No outer law is welcome.

25359

There can be no monopoly
On God’s
Compassion-Eye.

25360

On every account
I must succeed
In disciplining myself.

25361

A oneness-heart
Is
A God-requirement.

25362

Oneness
Holds the clue
To all answers.

25363

God’s Compassion-Eye
And
God’s Forgiveness-Heart
Are always with me
Every step.

25364

Insecurity
Must not paralyse
My service-hands.

25365

God knows well
That even if I do not succeed
In pleasing Him,
I love Him all the time.

25366

Ignorance-night
Will never learn
How to live alone.

25367

I school myself
In intensive worship.

25368

Insecurity strangles
Our life-expansion
And
Jealously stifles
Our self-expression.

25369

If we want the best security
In life,
Then we must cling to the Divine
Within us.

25370

I keep purity
As a permanent member
Of my immediate family.

25371

Listen carefully
To what your Inner Pilot
Has to say.

25372

My soul weeps
Through my heart.

25373

My heart weeps
Through my life.

25374

I must become
The tenderness
Of my heart.

25375

I must become
The soulfulness
Of my life.

25376

Every day
I must make my God-love
Deeper and more sincere.

25377

My soul is
A morning sunrise-singer
In my heart.

25378

My aspiration-heart
Is ringing
With God’s Victory-Bell.

25379

A sincere God-lover
Does not believe in
Any real danger zone.

25380

When I live in my mind-sky,
I never see any sign
Of dawn.

25381

My Lord,
Each Smile of Yours
Increases the fragrance
Of my aspiration-heart.

25382

God loves
My heart-flame-offering
Infinitely more than
I can ever imagine.

25383

The mind-impurity thinks
That it knows everything
About God.

25384

The heart-purity is always eager
To know a little more
About God.

25385

My only prayer to God is this:
I would like to be
A God-satisfying hero-warrior.

25386

Faith
Is the most brilliant student
Of spirituality.

25387

Every day
We must begin our life
With an inspiration-search.

25388

Needless to say,
Doubt
Is our timeless enemy.

25389

If you do not forget about
Your useless past,
How can God give you
A useful present and future?

25390

We must not stop,
Even when we succeed,
For the Goal is ever-transcending.

25391

Our souls laugh at us
When we try to impress God
With our aspiration.

25392

“Proceed, proceed!”
My Lord tells me.
He also tells me:
“There is no red light
On your way to My Palace.”

25393

My heart hoists
God’s Victory-Banner
All the time.

25394

The restless mind
Drains
All my vital energy.

25395

In the Cosmic Game,
The mind and the vital
Never play their roles well.

25396

By concealing the mind,
We cannot transform
The mind.

25397

To transform the mind,
We must face
The mind.

25398

Desire-thoughts
Are born
In the mind-clouds.

25399

Never allow
Even an iota of doubt
To creep into
Your God-searching mind.

25400

I like to lose myself
Inside God’s Eye,
But God wants me to lose myself
Inside His Heart.

25401

My heart-nest,
God says,
Is His best place to rest.

25402

My Lord,
I would like to know
What You are doing.
“My child,
I would like to know
What you are becoming.”

25403

Darkness
Is another name
For ignorance.

25404

My heart is searching
For its lost
God-obedience-joy.

25405

A real gratitude-heart
Can never enjoy
God-oblivion.

25406

God wants me to take
Very special care of
My God-hungry heart.

25407

God wants
My God-gratitude-heart
To be part and parcel
Of His Life.

25408

Be brave.
Do not allow doubt and suspicion
To enter into your heart
From your mind.

25409

Alas, my ego-mind
Does not believe
In vacation.

25410

Do not listen
To your mind’s dictates.
Continue aspiring.

25411

Imagination
Wants to enter
Into reality.

25412

Aspiration
Is already in the heart
Of reality.

25413

The sunlit Smile
Of my Lord
Feeds me sumptuously
Every day.

25414

Justice-Light
Loves to surrender
To Compassion-Height.

25415

Insecurity
Has many forms
And many shades.

25416

Perfection
Born of heart-tears
Forever lasts.

25417

Possession
Becomes poisonous
Long before we come
To realise it.

25418

Gloomy thoughts
Easily take shelter
In the mind.

25419

Behold,
Each human life
Is paved with
God-fulfilment-intentions.

25420

Alas,
My mind is already
An aspiration drop-out.

25421

Slow and steady
Wins unmistakably
The Heavenward race.

25422

Alas,
My mind has become
A worry-revolving door.

25423

The power of silence
At God’s choice Hour
Explodes.

25424

You can consume
Your egoism
If you belong
To ‘Godism’.

25425

God never hammers
On our weaknesses.

25426

Without enthusiasm
And courage,
No progress can ever
Be made.

25427

My God-tears
Nobody can dare
To bury.

25428

An immortal life
Does not necessarily mean
A God-manifestation-life.

25429

Gratitude lives
Between
Beauty and purity.

25430

Every day we must offer
Our gratitude-heart anew
To God’s Will.

25431

Desire-flights
Are
Terribly turbulent.

25432

The world is moving
So fast today.
Uncertainty has become
The order of the day.

25433

Each self-giving life
Is a weaver
Of a new world-vision.

25434

Aspiration knows
Where salvation is.
Salvation is in the tears
Of our heart
And in the smiles
Of our soul.

25435

May each heart become
An unbroken chain
Of love.

25436

The seeker in me
Lives only
For a taste of divinity.

25437

A life without love
Knows the way
To destruction.

25438

The loss of self-esteem
Is the cause
Of all my anxieties.

25439

God eagerly helps us
To turn
Our heart-sorrows
Into our mind-dust.

25440

Christmas minus Christ
Has become
The present-day experience.
Why?
Our faith-vessel is totally empty.

25441

If you are a true seeker,
Then you will feel
That you are God’s
Very special guest.

25442

Jealousy quickly descends
From the reality
Of life.

25443

When my inspiration dies,
God immediately
Cries and cries.

25444

God-realisation
Begins
When ignorance-vacation
Ends.

25445

Every day
The mind-thoughts
Have to be washed.

25446

The desire-thief
Has no way to enter into
My heart-safe.

25447

I really love the beauty
Of a sincerity-heart.

25448

My Lord,
What will give You joy?
“My child,
Just a smile from you.”

25449

My Lord,
To be absolutely frank with You,
I do not need, I do not want
To associate with desire-mind
Any more.

25450

I am sure
Ignorance-night
Is not going to recognise me
Any more.

25451

Desire-attacks
Are simply devastating.

25452

There is no lost soul
In the heart
Of Mother Earth.

25453

God’s Compassion-Rain
My heart self-givingly
Watches.

25454

My aspiration
Will always remain
A stranger
To death-grave.

25455

We must leave
The mind’s territory
If we want to grow and glow
In our own
Aspiration-hearts.

25456

Let us pay no attention
To our indifferent mind.
Let us pay all attention
To our man-loving heart.

25457

My Lord,
I love to see Your Feet
More than I love to see Your Eye.
My Lord,
Am I doing the right thing?
“My child,
There is no difference;
They are equally one to Me.”

25458

My Lord,
Is there any way
I can please You every day
In Your own Way?
“Easily, My child.
Just increase the number of plants
In your heart-garden.”

25459

My Lord
Gives me His Wealth every day —
A little beyond
My aspiration’s reach.

25460

God’s Will
Is
My only heart-home.

25461

God-satisfaction
Is
My only credential.

25462

God eagerly hears
The secret prayers
Of a sacred heart.

25463

The ancient way
Of worshipping God
Had more devotion in it
Than now.

25464

When my mind
Soulfully came to visit
My Lord,
He was speechless with surprise.

25465

Once God enters into
My gratitude-heart-garden,
He does not want to leave.

25466

Speak only
When silence urges you
To speak.

25467

To surprise God
Is not my goal.

25468

To please God
In His own Way
Is my goal,
My only goal.

25469

Wherever I go,
I take with me
My two bodyguards:
Willingness and eagerness.

25470

The mind has many reasons
To love God.
The main reason is to reach
The highest peak
Of world-recognition.

25471

The heart has no reason
To love God.
It only loves God
For God’s sake.

25472

From now on,
My mind will no longer
Be able to hold
Any sovereignty
In my life.

25473

When the mind speaks to God,
It uses its weapons:
Why, how, when and where.

25474

When the heart speaks to God,
It offers its humble possessions:
Lotus, rose and jasmine.

25475

We do not need
Our mind-identification cards
To love and serve God.

25476

My Lord, bless me
With a heart that is indifferent
To the fame-crown.

25477

Whenever I make any promise
To God,
I do it with a ready mind
And an eager heart.

25478

The aspiration-heart
Needs no special
Devotion-instructions.

25479

A sun-bright happiness-life
Can be achieved
Through constant self-offering.

25480

The heart’s delight-child
Always follows the heart.

25481

The mind loves
To have
A burden-life.

25482

The heart loves
To be
A pinion-life.

25483

My aspiring heart
Is always ready to brave
Each and every desire-wave.

25484

God Himself will quench
Your God-eagerness-thirst
At His choice Hour.

25485

I shall not allow even one single
God-fulfilment-opportunity
To slip by.

25486

The advantages
Of non-expectation
Are numerous.

25487

The mind loves to house
Confusion and turmoil.

25488

God wants my heart-home
To be empty
Of anxieties and worries.

25489

God wants every seeker
To have a special flower
In his heart-garden:
Eagerness.

25490

We must slay
Our jealousy-dragon
If we truly want to please God.

25491

I love the present moment,
Now,
More than I love
Anything.

25492

Do not keep your dreams
Inside your heart-pocket.
Bring them out and share them
With the rest of the world.

25493

“Here and now”
Is my soul’s motto
To manifest God
In His own Way.

25494

God never tells me that
He will give me
The test today
And the lesson tomorrow.

25495

O my mind,
Can you do me a big favour?
Just check your pulse.
Who knows,
You may be already dead.

25496

I love God, I serve God:
This wisdom-light
I have received
From my Lord Beloved Supreme.

25497

Can you imagine
What my stupid mind
Says to me?
It says that it has a right
To be wrong.

25498

Insecurity,
To me, your sickness
Is incurable.

25499

I love to live at a place
Where my soul can walk by
At each and every moment.

25500

God loves to have
My soul’s original smile,
And not copies.

25501

My head deceives me.
My eyes deceive me.
My ears deceive me.
My mouth deceives me.
But my heart never, never
Deceives me.

25502

Young, old —
These are mere words,
I have learnt from my heart.

25503

Beauty, fragrance —
These are two birds
That fly and fly
In my heart-sky.

25504

Until God’s Hour strikes,
Our Master overlooks
All our weaknesses.

25505

God wants me to embark
On one pilgrimage:
The heart-pilgrimage.

25506

Alas, we live under
The sky of vastness
And not under
The sky of oneness.

25507

Every day God carefully
And self-givingly draws
His circle to protect me.
But I know what I do
With the circle.

25508

If we ask God the right question,
Then we see that God
Has already answered.

25509

To my greatest joy,
This morning I had
A very narrow escape
From desire-disaster.

25510

God tells me that
If I want to claim Him
As my own, very own,
Then I must never lose
My child-heart.

25511

My Lord, how far can I go?
“My child, not how far you go,
But how quickly you become
A choice instrument
Of My Heart.”

25512

I do not know
Why God still blesses me,
Knowing perfectly well
How many things
I do wrong deliberately.

25513

This morning
God gave me a gracious Smile.
He expected from me
A spacious heart.
Alas, I did not succeed.

25514

This morning
God came and gave me
The capacity to turn
Each and every turmoil
Into happiness.

25515

The sweetness of the heart
Expedites our inner journey
Far beyond our imagination.

25516

Indomitable courage
Is of paramount importance
To take one step forward
Towards the Destination.

25517

There is not a single human being
Who does not have inner strength,
But we are either consciously
Or unconsciously not bringing
This inner strength to the fore
To please God, our only Reality,
In His own Way.

25518

He who has clarity
In the mind
Sees divine light
Everywhere.

25519

A child-heart-innocence
Not only tells us
Where God’s Palace is,
But also carries us to the Palace.

25520

Every day
We must consciously increase
The power of our oneness
With God’s Will.

25521

Desire-satisfaction
Is
Frustration-invocation.

25522

Aspiration-satisfaction
Is the real beginning
Of a seeker’s journey
To his real God-Destination.

25523

My Lord, may my life live
Between the vastness of my mind
And the universal oneness
Of my heart.

25524

The purity of the mind
Is a short-lived
Experiment.

25525

The purity of the heart
Is an enduring
Experience.

25526

The purity of the soul
Is an everlasting
Reality.

25527

If we really want God’s Victory,
Then we must replace
Our self-importance
With God-importance.

25528

In the spiritual life,
Detachment has to be a living reality
To please God in His own Way.
Otherwise,
Detachment is only a word
Which all can find in the dictionary.

25529

Until we have become
Totally one with God’s Will,
Even an inch of forward movement
Is a supreme sacrifice.

25530

Once we become
Inseparably one with God’s Will,
The word ‘sacrifice’
Has no existence.

25531

The mind needs
Illumination.

25532

The heart needs
Realisation.

25533

Life needs
Transformation.

25534

To achieve illumination
Is a difficult task.

25535

To achieve realisation
Is an infinitely more
Difficult task
Than to achieve illumination.

25536

Nature’s transformation
Or world-transformation
Is an infinitely, infinitely
More difficult task
Than the illumination of the mind
And the realisation of the heart.

25537

Patience is a divine secret
To hasten the time
Of our arrival
At the Destination.

25538

The silence of God-oneness-souls
On earth
Is infinitely stronger
Than man-made nuclear weapons.

25539

Divine service
Means the acceptance
Of God’s creation-responsibility
As one’s own, very own.

25540

Self-imposed purpose
Has no real goal.
God-ordained purpose
Is the beginning
Of an ever-transcending Goal.

25541

The gratitude-heart-bird
Flies high, higher, highest,
Fast, faster, fastest,
To arrive at God’s Heart-Palace.

25542

A true seeker is he
Who not only embodies
But also reveals his Master’s joy
Here, there and everywhere.

25543

The mind takes perseverance
As something
Extremely bitter.

25544

The heart takes perseverance
As something most essential
To bring down
God’s Compassion-Satisfaction
Into the heart-pocket of the seeker.

25545

Without perseverance,
The Goal shall forever remain
A far cry.

25546

A good thought, an inspiring thought,
A self-giving thought,
Is nothing short of a magical touch,
And the Magician here is God Himself
And nobody else.

25547

Wisdom we cannot invent;
Wisdom is discovery.
There is only one discovery
Which makes us feel
That God has always been
With us, in us and for us,
And that wisdom is self-discovery.

25548

The will-power in the desire-mind
Is weaker than the weakest.
We call it desire-will-power,
But it is only a mere wish.

25549

The will-power in the heart
Is God’s own Message-Light,
And God Himself is fully responsible
For fulfilling His Message
In and through His children
Who live only for Him.

25550

With His Will-Power,
God wants to liberate us
From the snares of bondage
And from the snares of time.

25551

What we call will-power
Is nothing short of
Our desire-wish,
And this desire-wish disappears
Even before we try to exercise it.

25552

My mind, you have been with me
For such a long time.
Do me a big favour.
Let me be alone
At least for a few days.
Let me be happy in my own way.

25553

Invoke God’s Presence prayerfully,
Soulfully and self-givingly.
Ignorance-knife will not be able
To attack you.

25554

My Lord,
Your Compassion-Eye
Is
My only heart-home.

25555

Each human heart
Is
An unnoticed miracle.

25556

Doubt soils faith.
Faith illumines doubt.

25557

My Lord tells me
That I need my receptivity-revival
Immediately.

25558

God tells me
That my heart’s sadness
Is His own Heart-failure.

25559

God does not keep His Love Above.
He keeps His Love here on earth
In each and every breath
Of humanity.

25560

God’s Compassion-Eye
Is our tour guide
Here on earth.

25561

God has no time
To listen
To my mind-stories,
But He has all the time
To hear
My heart-songs.

25562

God sits back and watches
Humanity’s comedies and tragedies
In astonishment.

25563

When we lighten
Somebody else’s life,
God immediately enlightens
Our minds.

25564

My Lord,
My life’s obedience-breath
I have placed at Your Feet.

25565

At every moment
We must be prepared
To destroy
The very breath of desire.

25566

Needless to say,
God favours
My self-giving heart.

25567

God asks my mind what it wants.
God never asks my heart what it wants.
God just gives and gives and gives
My heart
What God wants my heart to have.

25568

May my heart have eagerness
Always
To fulfil God’s every Wish.

25569

When the vital wants
To serve God,
God’s Joy knows no bounds.

25570

When we want
To share our secrets,
God is always available.

25571

When God wants
To share His Secrets
With us,
We are nowhere to be found.

25572

My prayers are fed by
God’s Compassion-Drops.

25573

God loves to play
On my heart’s
Aspiration-hill.

25574

When we say “Yes” to our soul,
God immediately enjoys
Ecstasy.

25575

Nobody can pay back God’s Love,
True,
But we can offer
Our devotion-tears
Unreservedly and unconditionally
To give a little joy to God.

25576

Each time God comes,
My heart says to God,
“My Lord,
Do stay a little longer.”

25577

In countless ways,
Aspiration can help us,
Both in our inner life
And in our outer life.

25578

Ultimately and inevitably
We shall all arrive
At God’s Palace
And please Him in His own Way.

25579

We do not need
Outer education
To love God and satisfy God.

25580

We need only
Our ego-demolition
To please and satisfy God.

25581

When we plead with God
To make us His own, very own,
We never meet with a refusal.

25582

My gratitude-heart alone
Can expedite
My Godward journey.

25583

Nothing can be as eloquent
As my own silence-mind.

25584

The heart never finds
Any difficulty
In doing God’s Will.

25585

Start watching God’s Feet
With utmost devotion
And never stop.

25586

The best way to fulfil
God’s Will
Is to starve our own will to death.

25587

We may not see it,
But it is true
That our Mother Earth
Is teeming
With self-giving hearts.

25588

Alas,
My aspiration-dedication-surrender-life
Is still fast asleep.

25589

May I have the rare capacity
To unite my words
With my deeds.

25590

As it is difficult to count grass,
Even so, it is extremely difficult
To count
Anybody’s heart-tears.

25591

My Lord,
Your adamantine Will
Becomes sweetness-thrill
Inside my heart.

25592

An unconsecrated minute
Is
An extremely sad experience.

25593

When my mind is surrounded
By doubts,
I immediately get
A heart-stopping experience.

25594

When our Lord Supreme forgives,
He unmistakably expects us
To forget.

25595

Self-sufficiency
Is our stupid
Self-assurance.

25596

Like the mother,
We all must look ahead
With hope.

25597

All God-doubters
Eventually will become
God-faith-winners.

25598

The aspiring heart
Plays
The God-arrival-flute.

25599

The doubting mind
Strikes
The God-departure-gong.

25600

Mind-information
Is nothing short of
Misinformation.

25601

My heart was deeply touched
When God told me
That I belong only to Him
And to nobody else.

25602

O seeker,
Do not be a fool.
Do not enter into
Your mind-jungle.

25603

Love-devotion-surrender-letters
To God
Do not need postage stamps.

25604

Keep your good thoughts
Only
Inside your heart.

25605

Do not forget to wind
Your heart’s
God-aspiring alarm clock.

25606

Life is nothing
But an endless race
Against our own weaknesses.

25607

Faith is
The safe haven
Of my aspiration-heart.

25608

Prayers are
Infinitely more helpful
Than all our earthly friends.

25609

God’s Compassion-Eye only
Can satisfy
Our God-hunger.

25610

The beauty of the heart
And the fragrance of the soul
Come down from high Above.

25611

There can be
No desire-forest
Without density.

25612

There can be
No aspiration-garden
Without intensity.

25613

Seclusion
Is not peace.

25614

God-invocation
Is peace.

25615

Ignorance-supremacy
Cannot touch
Our soul’s light.

25616

I call it my failure,
But my Lord calls it
My negligence.

25617

A sincerity-heart
And a simplicity-mind
Can considerably help
Any seeker.

25618

My aspiration-heart
Is happy to house
Everything that I need
For God-realisation.

25619

A God-disobedience-life
Is the worst possible
Tragedy.

25620

God-realisation
Comes first,
And then the transformation
Of life.

25621

Inner purity
Means outer beauty
In the spiritual life.

25622

Each divine thought
Embodies
A divine angel.

25623

My God-gratitude-life
Always rescues me
From ignorance-attacks.

25624

The soul
Does not believe in
Inner inclement weather.

25625

God’s guiding Hand
Is within our easy reach,
But we must long for it.

25626

The Master’s immortal utterances are:
“Forward for the farthest,
Upward for the highest,
Inward for the deepest.”

25627

If we do not resist vehemently
Ignorance-night,
How can we have even a glimpse
Of God’s Compassion-Eye?

25628

Alas,
My heart-nest
Is empty.

25629

Where am I?
I am inside the lotus-flames
Of my self-giving life.

25630

I must never be oblivious
To my Lord’s Presence-Light
Inside my heart.

25631

I must surmount
Innumerable Himalayan barriers
In my inner heart of aspiration
And my outer life of dedication.

25632

My heart’s
Spirituality-ascent
Knows no roadblock.

25633

My mind is familiar
With only one thing:
Disillusionment.

25634

My Lord, I am ready for You
With my heart’s gift.
Do come.
Delay not, my Lord.

25635

My soul has been devouring
The dust of my Lord’s Feet
Since the very beginning
Of creation.

25636

At times I take my mind
As a God-disciple.
At times I take my mind
As a devil incarnate.

25637

My Master, in my dream
I see you praising me.
In my reality,
I see you reprimanding me.
I do not understand the significance.
“My child, in your dream,
You are your aspiration-heart.
In your reality,
You are nothing but a desire-bound life.”

25638

The aspiring heart
Always looks for the upstairs.
The desiring mind
Always looks for the downstairs.

25639

My Lord, what do You have in mind
For my future?
“My child, what else
Save and except your God-realisation?”

25640

My Lord, I wish to smile
Once more
The way I used to smile.
“My child, who prevents you?
Just cultivate your heart-tears
Once more.”

25641

Every morning my soul
Brings down for my life
My Lord’s
Forgiveness-Ambrosia.

25642

When I flatter God,
He does not seem to mind.
When I glorify God,
He tells me that I am doing
Absolutely the right thing.

25643

If you are a genuine seeker,
Then you will definitely
Have the capacity to burst out of
Your ignorance-bubble.

25644

O seeker, be wise.
Be patient with your life’s
Perfection-possibilities.

25645

The higher worlds
Decide to descend
Only when the lower worlds
Leave us.

25646

The right way to study meditation
Is to make your life
A ceaseless flow of tears.

25647

God is always eager
To visit my heart-home.
But alas, I am never found
In my heart-home.
I am found only
In the mind-street.

25648

Wisdom-light cannot be
Memorised.
It can only be
Immortalised.

25649

The divine in me tells me
That I must rely
Only on God.

25650

The human in me tells me
That I can depend
On people as well —
The height of absurdity.

25651

Stop thinking for yourself.
God does not want you
To take His Job away.

25652

If you believe in God’s Compassion,
Then you must believe in
God’s constant Presence
Inside your heart.

25653

Seeing the Truth
Is God-aspiration.
Becoming the Truth
Is God-realisation.

25654

God’s philosophy
Is simpler than the simplest:
“Never give up, never give up!”

25655

Meditation is
The heart-fountain
Of love for God.

25656

God makes decisions for us
Only when we live for God
And nobody else.

25657

We cannot live without the body.
But our aspiration-cries
And dedication-smiles
Can live without the body,
For they are well sheltered
Inside the Pride-Heart of God Himself.

25658

Alas,
Nothing new —
Stupidity has occupied our mind.

25659

When we do not pray and meditate
On a regular basis,
We get the real mixed up
With the unreal.

25660

I am determined to liberate
My life
From the burning attachments
Of my present and past life.

25661

Physical sufferings
Cannot give us
Detachment.

25662

Spiritual awakening only
Can give us
Detachment-delight.

25663

Alas, how rarely
We feed our Inner Pilot
With our aspiration-cries.

25664

Aspiration
Is a very long process
Of God-seeking.

25665

Our life can swim
In freedom-delight
Only when we have become
The beauty and fragrance
Of God-surrender.

25666

The inner satisfaction
Is ocean-deep.

25667

The outer satisfaction
Is only skin-deep.

25668

The bountiful Smile of God
Is found only in the heart-tears
Of the seeker.

25669

Alas, the mind loves
To be imprisoned
By the outer desire-aspects of life.

25670

An unconditional surrender
Enjoys the Bliss
Of a supreme victory.

25671

A desire-mind does not know
That it is heading
For doubt-destination
Without fail.

25672

Alas, I must cultivate
More faith in my heart
To fight against
Swarming anxieties.

25673

Peace is definitely
The birthplace
Of wisdom-light.

25674

Peace
Can never be separated
From bliss.

25675

Without constant love of God,
Life remains
Absolutely meaningless.

25676

Meditation
Needs peace.
Peace needs
A oneness-heart.

25677

Alas, the desiring mind
Does not want to go beyond
The territories of fascination.

25678

A seeker needs
Only one thing:
Upward-flying aspiration.

25679

Eagerness is needed
For success.
Intensity is needed
For progress.
Divinity is needed
For perfection.

25680

O seeker, be careful.
One wrong turn in your spiritual life
Can easily lead to disaster.

25681

There can be no short-cuts
To God-manifestation
On earth.

25682

The desire-mind
Is nothing but
A thorny expectation-road.

25683

Sleeplessly and breathlessly
We all must arrive
At God’s Heart-Home.

25684

Pay all attention
To the inner whispers.

25685

Not only silently
But also self-givingly,
We must wait for the Arrival
Of our Lord Supreme.

25686

My Lord, please tell me,
Which flower do You like best
In my heart-garden?
“My child,
Definitely the gratitude-flower.”

25687

Alas, I do not know why and how
I brought home
Jealousies and insecurities
From the desire-market.

25688

Happiness-beauty
Is ready to welcome the heart
At any time.

25689

I am seeing and hearing
Two things at the same time.
I am seeing God
Coming towards me.
I am hearing God
Whispering from within.

25690

Peace-oceans
Definitely have
Bliss-islands.

25691

What have I done wrong, my Lord,
To lose Your Smile?
“My child, can you not see
That early in the morning
You have not fed Me
With your gratitude-heart-smiles?”

25692

God’s Compassion-Eye
Awakens
The human heart.

25693

God’s Forgiveness-Heart
Strengthens
Man’s God-hunger.

25694

My body,
Wake up, wake up —
No further delay!

25695

My vital,
Stand up, stand up —
No further delay!

25696

My mind,
Go forward, go forward —
No further delay!

25697

My heart,
Dive deep within, dive deep within —
No further delay!

25698

My soul,
Manifest God’s Light,
Manifest God’s Light —
No further delay!

25699

Love is hope.
Hope is nectar.

25700

The Sweetness-Footprints
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme
Inside my heart-garden
I treasure beyond measure.

25701

To smile
Is to offer happiness
To the world.

25702

To be oblivious
To God’s Will
Is to march backward.

25703

Spirituality is
An experience-subject.
Spirituality is not
An experiment-object.

25704

God’s Feet and God’s Eye
Are definitely within
My heart’s easy grasp.

25705

Ego loves flattery.
Devotion loves and needs
God-battery.

25706

Even the mind
Cannot resist the embrace
Of God’s Will.

25707

Humanity’s ingratitude
Is not even
In God’s wildest dreams.

25708

God does not mind
Changing His Will
If that way He can help humanity
More convincingly.

25709

It is an exceptional privilege
To think
In God’s Way.

25710

God tells me
That my love of God
Has to be the only ruler
Of my life.

25711

Stupidity-mind
Asks God
To prove Himself.

25712

God is always eager
To approve of
Humility-heart.

25713

If you pull God’s Will,
You will damage
Your heart.

25714

If you push God’s Will,
You will damage
Your brain.

25715

Life makes only one mistake:
It does not want
To please God.

25716

The heart does not have
To understand,
As long as it can feel
What God is.

25717

The day my gratitude-heart arose
Was the best day
In God’s Life.

25718

We do not have to wait
For our outer facilities.
But we do have to wait
For our inner opportunities.

25719

When I leave the dust
Of my Lord’s Feet,
Loneliness attacks me ruthlessly.

25720

My heart is telling God
That it is always eager
To be put to the test.

25721

God’s most favourite toy
Is my
God-aspiration-promise.

25722

May each good thought
Of mine
Bloom into a flower
To thrill my Lord.

25723

O seekers,
Stay clear of the mind’s
Confusion-road.

25724

Cut the negativity-tree
From top to bottom.

25725

Like my heart,
From now on
I shall have only one job:
God-satisfaction.

25726

Extreme eagerness
Is the beginning
Of blossoming fulness.

25727

There shall come a time
When the mind also
Will long for
God’s ambrosial Feet.

25728

My mind,
Can you not see
That it is already too late
For you to race to God?

25729

God wants my devotion-heart
To caress
His Vision-Eye.

25730

My life lives between
My readiness-mind
And
My eagerness-heart.

25731

Self-doubt can easily
Capsize
The inner boat.

25732

Like my soul,
I shall fly from peak to peak
On my God-surrender-delight.

25733

Never ignore
God’s secret and sacred
Advice.

25734

My heart
Prayerfully observes
God’s blessingful Footfalls.

25735

My gratitude-heart
Is the pleasure-garden
Of the cosmic gods.

25736

Those who want
To understand God
Will sadly fail.

25737

Those who love
God’s Will
Will immediately succeed.

25738

God’s Compassion-Eye
Must always have
Its own way.

25739

Alas, will I ever be through
Playing with
Ignorance-night?

25740

My part-time oneness
With God
Pains God tremendously.

25741

God’s Patience
Is nothing short of
His Forgiveness.

25742

You do not have to explore ignorance.
Leave it where it is.
Let it remain alone.
You just implore God’s Will.

25743

Ignorance-illusion
No more do I need.

25744

To be angry with God
Is absolutely
A waste of time.

25745

A soulful smile
Of my heart
Can easily thrill
God’s Heart.

25746

O my mind,
Like my heart,
Learn to love God
And His ways.

25747

Even God finds it difficult
To believe
That I have missed
My morning prayers so often.

25748

Between God’s Eye
And my heart
No secret can ever exist.

25749

The mind knows
How to ignore
God’s Eye.

25750

The heart knows
How to implore
God’s Feet.

25751

God is made of Love.
Therefore everything of His
Is meant to be loved.
How can we possibly love God enough?
An impossible task, indeed.

25752

God’s Will
Is never
To be questioned.

25753

The great mission
Of each human being
Is heart-expansion.

25754

We must score full marks
In our God-obedience-examination.

25755

My heart
Is always thirsty
For God’s Oneness-Breath.

25756

There is no earthly problem
That cannot be solved
By the dust of my Lord’s Feet.

25757

Waste not
Even a single minute
In the doubting mind.

25758

God wants everybody’s life
To come up to
His expectations.

25759

Each heart-flower
Has a unique beauty
And a unique fragrance
To please God in His own Way.

25760

Poor God
Has His own difficulties.
Alas,
Why do I have to add more?

25761

God has made
A very special prediction:
Before long my heart
Will be released
From my mind-prison.

25762

God’s Compassion-Eye
Pilots
My life-boat.

25763

God’s Concern-Heart
Welcomes me
To His Golden Shore.

25764

Aspiration and dedication
Always like to be
In the company
Of God-Satisfaction.

25765

Everything in God’s creation
Has its own secret heart
And sacred breath.

25766

Perfection
Needs to stand bravely
The test of time.

25767

My heart and I
Sing God’s Glory
With all our tears and smiles.

25768

God is happy
When I speak.
God is happier
When I do not speak.
God is happiest
When I listen only to Him.

25769

In Heaven
There are a great many palaces
For the self-giving beings
After their earth-departure.

25770

My Lord,
I am helpless.
Do come and console
My utter helplessness.

25771

Every hour
Is the God-Hour
To please God
In His own Way.

25772

My gratitude-heart
Is a most practical way
To please
My Lord Supreme.

25773

God’s Will
Has the only meaning
In my life.

25774

The stupidity-mind denies
God’s Compassion-Eye
And Forgiveness-Heart.

25775

My only haven
Is God’s
Loftiest Command.

25776

Immediately
God forgives me.
Ultimately
I realise God.

25777

I implore
God’s Compassion-Eye
To speedily devour
My all.

25778

Alas,
Will I ever be able
To prepare myself
To fully satisfy
My God-hunger?

25779

When my heart speaks,
God immediately understands.
No interpreter is needed.

25780

When my mind speaks,
Even an interpreter fails
To make God understand
What I say.

25781

If you think God makes mistakes,
Then rest assured,
God will be immensely happy
To remain with His mistakes
And not interfere
With your perfection-mind.

25782

True, it is difficult to see God
But not His Eye,
And His Heart is easier than the easiest
To feel.

25783

God’s Compassion-Eye
Is my heart’s
Irresistible attraction.

25784

God is eager
To teach me
The Truth.

25785

I am eager
To preach
The Truth.

25786

God does not want me to wait
For tomorrow’s golden opportunities.
Why?
Tomorrow arrives, but opportunity
Does not accompany tomorrow.

25787

Opportunity has to be found
In today’s heart and today’s life.
Opportunity does not believe in
The future
The way we all do.

25788

Alas,
Why do I go to God
With my reasoning mind?
He has told me repeatedly
That He does not care for
My reasoning mind.
He cares only for my loving heart.

25789

God’s Compassion-Eye
Does not know the meaning of
Why, how, when and where.

25790

One way or another
I shall conquer the pride
Of my God-unwillingness-mind.

25791

God says that He does not need
Our thanks.
But He does need
Our heart-tears and our life-smiles.

25792

God’s very existence
Is made of
His Forgiveness-Smile.

25793

I love to tell God
Something
Very serious.

25794

God loves to hear
Something
Very funny.

25795

I like to brief God
About the world situation.

25796

God wants me to brief Him
Only about my situation.
He is not interested in
The world situation any more.
He is interested in my situation
More, ever more.

25797

I do not believe God
When He tells me
That He is resting.

25798

God does not believe me
When I tell Him
That I am testing Him.

25799

God is always interested
In seeing
What I am doing.

25800

I am always interested
In knowing
If God is thinking of me.

25801

Poor mind:
It does not know
How to dream
And
How to fly.

25802

Do not think
You are worthless
And useless.

25803

Each new moment
Is a new
Golden opportunity.

25804

Centuries are passing by.
Peace is nowhere
To be found.

25805

Destruction has come
Out of the vital.
Now it is living
In the mind.

25806

The vision
Of the heart-eye
Is unlimited.

25807

My soul’s God-vision
Has to be
My life’s God-manifestation.

25808

God’s Compassion-Eye
Unites my prayer-heart
With Heaven’s Smile.

25809

Spirituality always needs
Long hours
Of God-worship.

25810

If God is
Your only Friend,
How can you ever be lonely?

25811

God loves
The delight
Of the heart.

25812

God does not like
The might
Of the mind.

25813

My love of God
Needs
Heart-extension.

25814

The same old sad song:
God does not care
For me.

25815

When God’s Compassion wins,
Our inner universe also wins
At the same time.

25816

The desiring mind
Never goes to God
For Justice-Light.

25817

I live in between
Ancient spirituality
And
Modern velocity.

25818

My mind
Does not know
Who I am.

25819

The heart
Does not want to know
What it is.
It only wants to know one thing:
God.

25820

The whispering messages
Of the soul
Are protecting my life.

25821

Each man
Has to be a man
Of formidable God-service.

25822

The lanes and the alleys
Of the mind
Are extremely, extremely narrow.

25823

I want my heart
To be
God’s Heart-Partner.

25824

If we are only for God,
Then roaring confidence
Will be all ours.

25825

A gratitude-heart
Is by far the best friend
Of ecstasy-sky.

25826

God wants each and every seeker
To sing, dance and skip
Along life’s narrow road.

25827

When we tame
The animal in us,
God sails our heart-boat.

25828

May my heart
Be basketfuls
Of God-love-devotion-surrender.

25829

God’s Vision-Eye
Says to me,
“My child,
Come as quickly as possible
And sit beside Me.”

25830

Every day and every hour
We must solidify our inner faith
To keep our Lord Supreme happy
Beyond measure.

25831

God’s Blessings
Help us sail
To our Destination.

25832

The mind gives the world
What it richly has:
Confusion.

25833

Avoid the mind-collision
With the heart-calamity.

25834

When it is a matter
Of raising man’s life,
God’s Compassion-Feet
Come first.

25835

Life is nothing short of
Uncounted worries.

25836

An indulgence-Lord
Can never save
The earth planet.

25837

Love One
And
Become all.

25838

Love-investment
Knows
No disappointment.

25839

In the inner world,
Only love-currency
Is valued.

25840

I feel at home
Only in my Lord’s
Forgiveness-Heart.

25841

Each new inspiration
Is a new challenge
To please God
In His own Way.

25842

The unaspiring mind
Collects doubt-poison
To spread everywhere.

25843

I am certain of one thing:
God never gives up on me.

25844

Indulgence
Is a stranger
In my heart-home.

25845

The cradle of self-love
Is made of
Illusion and delusion.

25846

May my life-river
Be a God-remembrance-delight.

25847

God tells me
To bring Him
What my heart is
And not
What my mind has.

25848

How can you expect
Heart-blossoms
In the mind-desert?

25849

Every morning
I swim in the river
Of enthusiasm.

25850

Every evening
I swim in the sea
Of peace.

25851

Today, at this moment,
My Lord,
Where are You?
“My child,
Not only at this moment
But all the time,
I have a very safe place to live:
Your own heart-home.”

25852

Alas,
My mind-days
Are eclipsed
By darkness-despair.

25853

Only the tears of heart-sorrow
Can clear
Our ignorance-mind-confusion.

25854

When I soulfully meditate,
I hear the songs
Of my God-recognition.

25855

My heart,
How long will you wait
To see God?

25856

My heart says to God,
“Since my God-hunger is constant,
I shall indefinitely wait
For You.”

25857

Ignorance-sleep
Unconsciously shows us the way
To inner collapse.

25858

The problem of problems
In a seeker’s life
Is God-separation.

25859

Failure says:
“Nobody wants me.”

25860

Success says:
“Everybody runs after me.”

25861

To look back at failures
Is
The worst possible folly.

25862

In my life
Only one road
Is sure and sunlit:
My heart-road.

25863

My outer strength
Fails.

25864

My inner power
Sails.

25865

God is extremely pleased
Even with my heart’s
Tinier than the tiniest
Gratitude-blossoms.

25866

If we do not pray and meditate
Regularly,
We may someday find ourselves
In the abysmal abyss.

25867

If we do not consciously surrender
Our earth-existence
To our Lord’s most benevolent Will,
We may someday find ourselves
At the nadir of consciousness.

25868

The folly of exorbitant pride
Is ruling the world.

25869

The wisdom of peace
Is unwanted.

25870

The beauty of the heart
Is rejected.

25871

The fragrance of the soul
Remains unknown.

25872

God’s slightest Touch
Is, indeed,
A Delight-Punch.

25873

Nobody can separate himself
From God’s Affection-Arms.

25874

Nobody can separate himself
From God’s Compassion-Eye.

25875

Nobody can separate himself
From God’s Concern-Heart.

25876

A good thought
Changes everything it touches
For the better.

25877

If you are pure,
Then definitely you will be able
To bring your divinity
To the fore.

25878

There is a powerful harmony
Between the mind’s willingness
And
The heart’s eagerness.

25879

If the heart is not ready,
The body, vital and mind
Can never start the race.

25880

I never thought
That my problems
Would carry me
Wherever they want to go.

25881

Wisdom I found
Only in the ancient heart.

25882

Stupidity I find
Only in the modern mind.

25883

When I win,
It is not certain
That God and I
Will win together.

25884

When God wins,
Not only do I win,
But the whole world wins
All at once.

25885

The collective minds
Are the founders
Of fool-schools.

25886

The moment I think of my Lord,
I enjoy
A celestial joy-ride
With Him.

25887

The mind loves to study
The higher courses
At adversity-university.

25888

The heart can be
A slow starter,
But it is always
The winner.

25889

The same old story
The mind repeats
Time and again:
God does not care for me.

25890

I do not mind
If my friends
Are not with me, in me
And for me.

25891

If I see that my friends
Are not with, in
And for my Lord,
Then I have nothing
To do with them.

25892

The thought-worlds
Are
Calamity-harbingers.

25893

The outer proximity
At times
Fails us badly.

25894

The inner closeness
Can never fail us.

25895

O my heart,
Never allow
The doubting mind
To darken your door.

25896

The ego-behaviour
Is contagious.

25897

In no way justify
Your doubting mind.

25898

In no way glorify
Your doubting mind.

25899

What God wants from you
Is just to nullify
Your doubting mind.

25900

The mind’s desire-road
Is absolutely
The most unsafe road
To God’s Heart-Palace.

25901

God loves to be discovered.
This is His only hobby.

25902

Alas, most of the religions
Have lost
Their esoteric ideas.

25903

I shall make
My love-devotion-surrender
To God
Beginningless and endless.

25904

God has implicit faith
In all my dreams.

25905

Do not make your life miserable
By comparing your goal
To others’ goals.

25906

Ignorance teaches us
Without having a license
From God.

25907

Compassion consoles.
Aspiration extols.

25908

My Lord,
Do make each and every religion
Once more living.

25909

A heart-purity-friend
Is beyond compare.

25910

Do not swim
In the expectation-pool.
You will drown.

25911

Alas,
How easily ignorance-sleep
Can engulf
Our entire being.

25912

God proudly treasures
Our heart-tears.

25913

To love a heart
That loves
Is no news.

25914

To love a heart
That does not love
Is very special news.

25915

To love a heart
That is unloved
Is the most significant news.

25916

I know everything
Except one thing:
That God has been searching
For me
From time immemorial.

25917

My aspiration-heart
And
My dedication-life
Adore God’s Compassion-Height
And God’s Justice-Light equally.

25918

To my great surprise,
The doubting mind in me
Is dying.

25919

To my greater surprise,
The loving heart in me
Is blossoming.

25920

To my greatest surprise,
My God is coming to help me
Unlearn all the ignorance-lessons
That I have been learning
For centuries.

25921

Faith and love
Are two next-door neighbours.
They are extremely fond
Of each other.

25922

Example is by far
The best inspiration.

25923

To challenge impossibility
Is to sit in the Elysian Lap
Of God.

25924

Impatience
Strangles us.

25925

Patience
Not only revives us
But also immortalises us.

25926

God wants you
To place your mind
Inside His Heart,
Even unwillingly.

25927

It is you who have to compel your mind
To appreciate
Your God-devotion-heart.

25928

The mind dies
In its self-created,
Thickest jungle.

25929

The heart
Perpetually blossoms
In its own beauty’s garden.

25930

A self-giving life
Eventually becomes
A God-pleasing heart.

25931

God is always extremely serious
When He deals with
The aspiring souls.

25932

God asks my mind
To imprison its unwillingness.
If not, God Himself will imprison
Both my mind and its unwillingness
At the same time.

25933

Faith is at once
Lovable and invincible.

25934

Greatness means
The mind in action.

25935

Goodness means
The heart in action.

25936

Selflessness means
God Himself in action.

25937

God is fully visible
When my humility-life
Kneels at the altar
Of God.

25938

I must always protect my mind.
Doubt-disaster can at any moment
Devour my mind.

25939

God’s Compassion
Begins.

25940

God’s Concern
Continues.

25941

God’s Pride
Completes the game.

25942

God makes spirituality responsible
For His grand Celebration
On earth.

25943

Although God is inexplicable,
He can easily and clearly
Be felt.

25944

World-malady
Has God’s Forgiveness
As its only remedy.

25945

Alas, ignorance-sleep
Has buried
My mind-enthusiasm
And my life-energy.

25946

Alas, I do not know
When my heart will return
From my mind-exile.

25947

Birthless and deathless
Has to be
My God-manifestation-victory.

25948

God wants Heaven and earth
To meet together
When He sings
Heaven-illumination
And
Earth-transformation-songs.

25949

I call it faith.
God calls it my fortress.

25950

May my mind
Constantly remain
Full of enthusiasm-sparkles.

25951

Man is still
His unborn
Gratitude-treasure.

25952

God loves equally
My soul-immensity
And
My heart-intensity.

25953

God tells us
To learn from Him directly
How to remain away from
The God-doubting mind.

25954

My joy knows no bounds
That my life is now bursting
Into aspiration-blossom.

25955

I live in between
My mind-terror
And
My heart-lover.

25956

If you are a student
Of God-surrender-school,
Never miss a lesson.

25957

God gets tremendous joy
When my child-heart-love
Binds Him tightly.

25958

I love immensely
My God-given
Earth-duties.

25959

Dedication-wings
Can fly very high
To reach
God-satisfaction-peaks.

25960

Each human heart
Is
An ever-blossoming dream
Of God.

25961

God begs and begs
All human beings
To live under
His Oneness-Heart-Roof.

25962

No perfection-home
Can ever be built
In an instant.

25963

Infinite patience
Is needed
To build a perfection-home.

25964

Sweet
Is
Devotion.

25965

Sweeter
Is
Devotion-bell ringing.

25966

Sweetest
Is
When my heart starts singing
While the devotion-bell is ringing.

25967

Desire-amusement park
Is extremely dangerous.

25968

God enjoys
My gratitude-heart-smiles
To the fullest.

25969

I have come to realise
That Heaven’s Haven
Is my Lord’s
Bliss-flooded Heart.

25970

At long last
I have shunned the company
Of my negativity-mind.

25971

The Breath of God’s Will
Is not only the longest
But also the sweetest.

25972

A sincerity-heart
Is the highest Blessing
That I have received
From my Lord Supreme.

25973

No God-pleasing step
Can ever be a false step.

25974

Alas, my gratitude-heart
Is so often
Out of breath.

25975

To my greatest joy,
God’s Forgiveness-Heart
Is never, never
Out of breath.

25976

God has given me
Ample warning.
Alas, yet I dine
With ignorance-night.

25977

Not earthly bullock cart-speed,
But Heavenly supersonic speed
I need
To reach my Lord’s Feet.

25978

We can imagine
Anything we want to,
Save and except
God’s infinite Sufferings.

25979

Nothing can ever be
As destructive
As God-disobedience.

25980

The best way
To impress God
Is never to try
To impress Him.

25981

Nothing must thwart
My God-manifestation-progress.

25982

God is mine
Only after I have claimed Him,
And not before.

25983

God laughs and laughs
Until I finally smile.

25984

God has given
Each aspiring heart
The capacity
To run at top speed
Towards His Heart-Home.

25985

Finally, God is able
To sweeten my mind
With His world-illumining Smile.

25986

Anything that God tells me
Is music to my ears.

25987

How can we expect to know
God’s Will
If we are not His advanced seekers.

25988

God catches and devours
The imperfection-insects
Of our nature.

25989

God’s scolding-showers
Are
His highest Blessing-Tower.

25990

When God whispers,
Only my heart-ears
Can hear.

25991

God’s madness
Does not mean much to me.

25992

God’s sadness
Destroys my very being.

25993

God always advises me
To shop
In God-Love-department store.

25994

God sings
His sweetest Songs
For the seeker who clings
To the dust of His Feet.

25995

Once you start
Kissing God’s Feet,
Never, never stop.

25996

Once you start
Feeling God’s Heart,
Never, never stop.

25997

Once you start
Singing God’s Victory-Songs,
Never, never stop.

25998

Once you start
Manifesting God’s Light
Here on earth,
Never, never stop.

25999

Three times I beg God:
I beg God to come;
I beg God to remain;
I beg God never to leave.

26000

My heart-tears
Have miracle-powers.
When I use them,
God hurriedly runs towards me.
