Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees, part 9

Return to the table of contents

8001

Please
Do not forget
That your soul
Is your Master’s breath.

8002

Please
Do not forget
That your life
Is your Master’s feast.

8003

Please
Do not forget
That your heart
Is your Master’s life-boat.

8004

Please
Do not forget
That you have
Many, many friends
In the world.

8005

Please
Do not forget
That your Master
Has only one friend:
Your heart’s satisfaction-smile.

8006

Please
Do not forget
That you forget your Master
In season and out of season.

8007

Please
Do not forget
That your Master
Never wants to study
In the forgetfulness-school.

8008

Please
Do not forget
That your Master
Is a constant beggar.
He begs you to give him
What you have:
Ignorance-night.

8009

Please
Do not forget
That your Master
Is a sleepless and breathless beggar.
He begs God to give him
What He has and what He is
For you, only for you.

8010

My mind-room
Is a room of hesitation,
Confusion and hallucination.

8011

My heart-room
Is a room of God-illumination,
God-perfection and God-satisfaction.

8012

Where do I live?
I live in the mind
Of my sad face.

8013

Where do I live?
I live in the soul
Of my happy heart.

8014

My Lord Supreme tells me that
To make Him happy
I must love His creation first.

8015

Unless a seeker listens to
His heart-whispers,
He will make no spiritual progress.

8016

A spiritual Master
Enters into the heart
Of humanity,
Not to teach, but to awaken.

8017

A true meditation
Teaches us how to live
Without any expectation.

8018

My inner life
Hungers for peace.
Alas,
Peace is nowhere to be found.

8019

My outer life
Hungers for power.
Alas,
Power is nowhere to be found.

8020

The heart-union
Is infinitely stronger than
The mind-division.

8021

My Lord is conscious and alert
Even before I make
Any deplorable mistakes.

8022

Supreme,
Ignorance-night is too strong
For me to fight with.
Will You not conquer
Ignorance-night for me?

8023

No matter how long it takes,
We must set our God-surrender
In motion.

8024

My aspiration-multitude
Has devoured
My mind’s exasperation-attitude.

8025

My heart can never understand
Why my mind, vital and body
Are so attached
To the fleeting finite.

8026

To release ourselves
From attachment-bondage,
May our God-surrender
Bloom and bloom.

8027

I am afraid
If I continue disbelieving God,
Who knows,
Someday I will become the dust
Of uselessness.

8028

Alas, in vain
I am begging and begging
And forcing and forcing doubt
To make a swift exit.

8029

The beauty of sincerity-road
Will take us to our Goal
Sooner than otherwise.

8030

O my mind,
You yourself are empty of peace.
How do you dare to bring about
World-peace?

8031

You will become
A supremely chosen instrument
Of God
If you spend all your thoughts
With your heart’s wisdom-light.

8032

I do not know why
The whole world
Is always eager to eat
Temptation-candies.

8033

May my heart rise
Like incense-prayer
To the highest God-Temple.

8034

Despair:
A journey with no
Destination.

8035

If you do not value
Your heart’s nest-home,
Who can and who will?

8036

My divinity-flooded satisfaction
I get
Only when I can prayerfully
And soulfully sit
At the Feet of my Lord Supreme.

8037

My aspiration-heart’s
Journey to Heaven
Is infallible.

8038

In my spiritual life,
My fastest speed comes from
My Lord’s Compassion-flooded Eye.

8039

You believe in God.
To you, He definitely exists.
Why do you not then please God
When He persists in asking you
To surrender everything to Him —
What you have and what you are?

8040

Instead of becoming proud,
Alas,
I am extremely afraid
Of my heart-tears.

8041

Death does its duty
By closing our eyes for good.
My Lord does His Duty
By injecting into us
His ever-charming,
Jumping Enthusiasm.

8042

Although I have fallen
Innumerable times,
I shall, my Lord,
Always claim You
To be my All.

8043

My Lord,
My mind cannot comprehend
Your Greatness.
My heart cannot fathom
Your Goodness.
But one thing is certain:
Both my mind and heart
Are all for You.

8044

Which is bigger,
My prayer-mind
Or
My meditation-heart?
Needless to say,
My meditation-heart.

8045

My Lord,
I shall win against ignorance-night.
Why and how?
I have You on my team.

8046

For an unaspiring human being,
A confusion-mind
Is inescapable.

8047

God does not need science
To interpret.
God’s Compassion is His own
Interpreter.

8048

My aspiration-heart-river
Is taking away
All my worries and anxieties.

8049

The day we do not have
Our inner cries,
That particular day
Is worse than useless.

8050

Leave me alone,
O ignorance-night.
My Lord Beloved Supreme
Is hungry
For the beauty and fragrance
Of my heart.

8051

My mind, do not worry.
Sing, sing!
Everything and everybody
Will take your side.

8052

I have declared to myself
That every day
Is a God-fulfilment-day.

8053

God tells me
That if He can increase
His infinite Compassion,
What is wrong with me?
How is it that I show no compassion
To my fellow citizens
Of the world?

8054

When we stop
The freedom of the mind,
Every day will be
A God-satisfaction-day.

8055

Today’s impossible achievements
Tomorrow may appear
As inevitability.

8056

A God-doubter
Is he
Who will never be fulfilled.

8057

If you study
In ignorance-school,
How can you avoid being
A total failure?

8058

I can either be
My mind’s desire-entertainer
Or
God-illumination-prince.

8059

The mind wants to impress
The whole world with its capacity,
Which is next to nothing.

8060

The heart wants to aspire
And aspire
For the whole world.

8061

When I am in the company
Of God-lovers,
My falsehood-life disappears.

8062

Anything that is human in life
Has to go through
Life’s outer comedy
And inner tragedy.

8063

O my mind-jungle,
Do you not realise
That I am only for
My heart-garden?

8064

If I live in the mind,
The world comes to my mind
As a question always.

8065

If I live in the heart,
The world comes to my heart
As an immediate
And everlasting answer.

8066

God’s official residence
Is in
My mind-territory.

8067

God’s private residence
Is in
My heart’s all-oneness-nest.

8068

Do not sleep!
If you sleep,
How can you be summoned
By God
To be with Him?

8069

From the soul’s point of view,
We do not need
An outer teacher in life.
What we need
Is a private tutor.

8070

How to believe God?
He tells me that one day
My love for Him
Will equal His Love for me.

8071

Each soulful song
Goes a long way
To become a choice instrument
Of God.

8072

Intelligence
Is not aware of
Its impossible stupidity.

8073

Intelligence does not know
When and how it becomes
Belligerence at times.

8074

Definitely God is far,
Very far,
When you walk along the road
Of anxieties and worries.

8075

God asks me to shut up
When I criticise ruthlessly
His beloved creation.

8076

God cries and cries and cries
When I shut
My world-oneness-heart-door.

8077

Speak to God
Any time you want to.
He is the only one
Who will not walk away.

8078

If you forget God today,
Then tomorrow
He will not invite you
To play with Him.

8079

If we do not have faith in God,
What happens?
Our troubles are shockingly
Multiplied.

8080

When a seeker
Surrenders his freedom to God,
God embraces him most proudly.

8081

Kindness and concern
Always find the shortest way
At the fastest speed
To God.

8082

Believe me,
God sheds bitter tears
In your helplessness
And hopelessness.

8083

The moment
I am a God-realised person,
I begin a new creation.

8084

War is not an adventure.
It is our stupidity’s
Endless height.

8085

When I am in my vital
And my mind,
I enjoy the superficial.

8086

When I am in my heart
And soul,
I only enjoy the life and breath
Of the ever-transcending Beyond.

8087

Nature and mind
May fool each other,
But Nature and heart
Will always be pleased
With each other
And fulfil each other together.

8088

If you want God to dine with you,
Never, never,
Even for a fleeting second,
Whine.

8089

When I am in my vital
And my mind,
I am terribly afraid of Light.

8090

When I am in my heart
And my soul,
I claim Light to be my own,
Very own.

8091

If you live in the mind,
You can at best be
A schemer.

8092

If you live in the heart,
You are going to be
A choice dreamer of God.

8093

It is almost an impossible task
To write a heart-aspiration-book
While the life is enjoying vacation.

8094

The more I mix
With my doubting mind,
The sooner my life becomes
Perfectly imperfect.

8095

To sleep on the lap
Of Mother Earth
We came not into the world.

8096

We came into the world
To fight for Mother Earth
Against her countless enemies.

8097

Each spiritual Master
Comes into the world
To awaken the sleeping divinity
Of human beings.

8098

Look at my mind!
Empty-handed it went to God,
Empty-handed it returns.

8099

Look at my heart!
With folded hands it went to God
And came back with God
The Bountiful.

8100

God’s Compassion,
God’s Forgiveness
Can never be inaccessible.

8101

My God-thirsty hunger
Who can stop?
No, nobody!

8102

I am happy,
Infinitely happy,
When I bury myself
In the depth
Of the Unknowable.

8103

One God-vision is enough
To destroy our untold
Fears and doubts.

8104

Can you tell me,
O my mind,
Where you have hidden
My child-heart?

8105

Devotion is needed
In boundless measure
To illumine my mind’s
Darkness-abyss.

8106

The beauty and fragrance
Of our aspiration-heart
Know no vacation.

8107

My Lord Supreme’s
Blessingful Eagerness to please me
Can only be felt
And never be described.

8108

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye
And Forgiveness-Heart
Are showing me the way
To liberate myself
From my self-styled mind-prison.

8109

Instead of saying
“Oneness-responsibility,”
Let us call it
“Oneness-beauty.”

8110

May each God-manifestation-choice
Of ours
Get a championship prize.

8111

Without adamantine will-power,
Nobody can be awakened
From this nightmare-world.

8112

My joy is when
I bind my heart
To my Lord’s
Compassion-Feet.

8113

Who actually owns
My soul,
If not the sleepless
God-server in me?

8114

Our faith
Is the freedom-key
From our mind’s
Abysmal abyss.

8115

The heart knows
No tiredness.
The mind knows nothing but
Constant hunger for retirement.

8116

Each illumining Whisper from God
Shows my gratitude-heart
How to walk along Eternity’s Road.

8117

Imagination becomes illumination
When we live
In constant God-preparation.

8118

To see God
In the twinkling of an eye,
Enjoy your heart’s
Perpetual cry.

8119

We all must try to read
And understand
God’s Suggestion Book.

8120

Misused freedom
Is a life-threatening
Danger.

8121

Yesterday you looked for God.
You did not find Him.
Can you not look for Him today?
Who knows,
Perhaps He will be available.

8122

God’s Compassion-Eye
Is all-where.
Only our awareness
Is missing.

8123

My mind, you tell me that
Your love of God is dead.
Your pronouncement
Is not acceptable.

8124

Satisfaction-shortage
Is within, without
And all-where.

8125

Receptivity-scarcity
Is the cause
Of humanity’s downfall.

8126

My life-boat plies between
God’s Forgiveness-Shore
And God’s Compassion-Shore.

8127

The suspecting mind
Does not have anything nice to say
About God’s
Unconditional Compassion.

8128

God’s creation
May believe
In impossibility.

8129

God’s Vision-Eye
Never believes
In impossibility.

8130

How difficult it is
To come out of temptation-territory,
But a genuine seeker
Definitely can come out of it.

8131

Man is man’s
Changing
Mind-house.

8132

Man is man’s
Unchanging
Heart-home.

8133

God Himself will amplify
Your efforts
For His Satisfaction.

8134

It may not be an easy task,
But certainly it is not
An impossible task
To stay awake
For God’s choice Hour.

8135

My joy knows no bounds
That finally my God-doubting hour
Has expired.

8136

What I sincerely need
Is God-reliance
And not my self-confidence.

8137

God enjoys watching me
When I enjoy my pilgrimage
To my oneness-heart-home.

8138

It is not possible
For a human being to hide
Indefinitely
His God-disbelief.

8139

I am on the lookout for hope.
Alas,
Is there anyone to rescue me?

8140

I equally love
My aspiration-invitation
And my desire-eviction.

8141

The inner commotion
Destroys
All our outer joys.

8142

I do not even want to look
At the face
Of my temptation-neighbour.

8143

The mind’s unwillingness
To accept God’s Will
Is at once laughable
And painful.

8144

Look at the heart’s willingness
To love God:
No matter what God does to the heart,
The heart remains totally faithful
To God.

8145

Will-power has to be exercised
Always
In the mind and heart
Of each and every human being.

8146

Everything in me loves
God’s Golden Shore,
Even my uncertain mind.

8147

My God-pleasing soul
Devoured voraciously
My mind’s endless doubts.

8148

Be a lion-hearted
Seeker
And a self-giving
God-lover.

8149

My soul,
I would like you to whisper
Only love and joy,
But power — never!

8150

If your life becomes
A God-surrender-heart-garden,
Then easily you can illumine
The dividing mind.

8151

If you follow the path of devotion,
Go sincerely.
Then love and surrender
Will follow you.

8152

Alas, I do not know
When my unconditional
Surrender-hour will begin.
Or will it never begin?

8153

My Lord, am I destined
Forever to remain inside
My mind’s confusion-abyss?

8154

The outer ears
Enjoy
Humour and gossip.

8155

The inner ears
Prayerfully and soulfully
Enjoy devotion-discourses.

8156

Although the path
Is stony and steep,
At the end of the path
Our Lord Beloved Supreme
Is eagerly waiting for our arrival.

8157

Every day I pray to God
To give my mind the capacity
To swim in silence-sea.

8158

May my peace-hunger
Every day, every hour,
Every minute, every second
Increase in measureless measure.

8159

When you carry
The fragrance of love with you,
You run the fastest
Towards your Destination.

8160

I have a dream.
It is all about the transformation
Of my unwillingness-mind.

8161

It is impossible
To fathom the power
Of self-deception.

8162

O God-seeker,
My heart-room I have kept
Clean, serene and pure.
Do come and be my lifelong guest.

8163

No matter where I go,
I meet with only
God’s Compassion-Bounty.

8164

The doubt-clouds must be dispersed
By the intensity
Of our heart’s love for God
And faith in God.

8165

God invites me to listen to
His Sound,
Which is at once soundless
And endless.

8166

The heart that loves
Unites
All and sundry.

8167

The mind that divides
Disintegrates
Eventually.

8168

The Beauty of my Lord’s
Compassion-Eye
Is my only heart-home.

8169

My ego
Likes to scream
All the time.

8170

My confidence
Loves to rule the world
All the time.

8171

My God-surrender
Loves to please God,
His entire creation,
All the time
In His own Way.

8172

I shall no more allow
World-criticism
To destroy the beauty
Of my flower-heart-home.

8173

He who remains neutral
Can never be a true friend
Of my heart.

8174

My soul’s nectar-delight
Is always eager to devour
My mind-poison
And my heart-sorrows.

8175

Every day my soul
Inspires me to pray to God
For my temptation-defeat
And my illumination-victory.

8176

Every day my soul
Distributes God-news
To all those
Who have staunch faith in God.

8177

My aspiration-heart is poised
Only in God’s
Compassion-flooded Presence.

8178

The invisible mind presents us
With the visible thoughts,
Encouraging and discouraging.

8179

My heart’s inner fear
Multiplies
When I see the sunset
Shedding tears.

8180

If you cannot love the unlovable,
Then you are not worthy
To become
God’s supremely chosen instrument.

8181

How I wish I could have
Only one flower
In my heart-garden:
Gratitude and nothing else.

8182

The more we cultivate willingness,
The sooner we discover
Our true Self.

8183

I am only interested
In the God-song,
And I do not need to know
Who sings it.

8184

May determination be
My lifelong friend
To fight with me
Against ignorance-night.

8185

The members
Of my heart-family
Are, without fail,
All over the world.

8186

Of all the medicines
In the inner life,
A smile is by far
The best medicine.

8187

A world of peace will be
The supreme achievement
Of humanity.

8188

The very nature
Of inner depth
Is to illumine
The outer life.

8189

Only a fool
Can be insecure
When the world
Ridicules him.

8190

To have
A God-gratitude-heart,
You must start your journey
Immediately.

8191

When I give my life
To God,
He gives me His Life-Breath
In return.

8192

Never give up,
No matter how long
You have to suffer
From an uncertainty-mind!

8193

Only the mind of peace
Can enter into
The silence-sea.

8194

May my outer life
Remain a devoted student
Of my inner life
Always.

8195

My heart-tears
Are proudly blessed
By God’s golden Feet.

8196

My Lord says to me:
“My child,
If you conquer Me first,
Then only I shall conquer
The world for you.”

8197

The united heart
Is always more powerful
Than the divided mind.

8198

Each soul-flower
Has the capacity to carry us
Beyond the domain of expectation.

8199

O my heart-river,
Where are you?
When will you take
My mind-worries away?

8200

My Lord, I do know that
One day
This hide-and-seek game
Will end,
But do show me the way
To expedite it.

8201

My world-acceptance
Is in no way detrimental
To my God-surrender-life.

8202

Leave me alone,
O my ignorance-night!
I have absolutely
Nothing to do with you.

8203

My Lord,
Never allow my aspiration
To take even the shortest
Possible break.

8204

Yesterday I forgot
To love You, my Lord.
Alas, therefore my life
Has become a broken heart.

8205

Unless you are
A devoted student
Of peace,
How can you ever dare
To claim peace
To come to your salvation?

8206

It is not a difficult task
To make the Supreme happy.
Just continue to climb
Sleeplessly and breathlessly.

8207

My heart is longing
For simplicity’s life
And sincerity’s breath.

8208

My mind is longing
For only one thing:
Publicity.

8209

God has not created
Any life on earth
Totally empty of light.

8210

Satisfaction will appear
Only when
We can dare to claim
God’s Forgiveness-Heart
As our own, very own.

8211

There is not a single seeker
Who does not have the capacity
To run at top speed
Towards his Destination.

8212

God’s Light
Can be not only seen
But also possessed
When our self-importance
Surrenders to our God-reliance.

8213

What we need
Is an indomitable spirit,
Soaring all the time
To please God
In His own Way.

8214

My Lord,
You have given me
So many things.
Just one thing more:
Do enfold me
In Your Infinity’s Peace-Heart.

8215

My Lord,
When someone looks at me,
I beg of him
To look inside my heart
To see the real in me.

8216

My Lord tells me:
“My child,
If you want to be real,
Then be here.
Again, if you are going to be here,
Then be real.”

8217

My Lord has given me
Not one, but two hands
To serve.
Alas, what am I doing?
Why am I not using them?

8218

My Lord has given me
Such a beautiful heart.
How is it that I am not using it
All the time
To love Him only?

8219

There was a time
When my Lord’s Protection-Arms
Protected me and my life.

8220

How am I being protected now?
I am now being protected
By my Lord’s Compassion-Eye
And Forgiveness-Heart.

8221

Negativity-enjoyment,
No, no, no!
Negativity-enlightenment,
Yes, yes, yes!

8222

My Lord asks me
In which way He is less attractive
Than any human being on earth.
How is it
That I am not falling in love
With Him?

8223

When I move around
In my Lord’s Heart-Garden
With a heavy heart,
He simply ignores me.

8224

When I move around
In my Lord’s Heart-Garden
With a happy heart,
He Himself comes to me
And shows me everything
In detail.

8225

My Lord tells me
That my mind’s cleverness-smile
Will never be a match
For my heart’s kindness-smile.

8226

My Lord tells me
That His Compassion-Eye
Is not my Saviour.
Even His Forgiveness-Heart
Is not my Saviour.
He alone
Is my Saviour,
My Eternity’s Saviour.

8227

My Lord tells me
That if I want to be His champion,
Then I must not renounce the world.
I must accept the world,
Love the world
And become the world
For its ultimate transformation.

8228

Unless and until we can satisfy
Our Lord Supreme
In His own Way,
There shall always remain a vacuum
In the depth of our heart.

8229

By hating the mind,
We cannot change
The mind —
Never!

8230

By shunning the mind,
We cannot change
The mind —
Never!

8231

By loving the mind
And pleading with the mind
For its transformation,
We are bound to succeed.
Let us try this here on earth.

8232

Each uncomely thought
Deprives us
Of our God-receptivity.

8233

May my life
Be a devotion-sprint
And not a march —
And definitely not a walk!

8234

Because you do not
Pray and meditate regularly,
Your spiritual life
Is trampled by lost hopes.

8235

My devotion-heart,
You will run faster than the fastest
If you devotedly follow
The Hunger of my Inner Pilot.

8236

May each day
Be a new hope
For a God-thirsty heart.

8237

My devotion-heart and I
Desperately need
Our mind-illumination.

8238

My Lord, do not crown my career
With conquests,
But allow my life to be only
The fulfilment
Of Your constant Behest.

8239

If you bind yourself
Deliberately
To your desire-life,
Then even God will not come
To liberate you.

8240

You may think that
Your mind’s conviction-road
Will be void of obstacles.
You may be totally wrong!

8241

Obedience, I love you.
Why?
Because God has implicit faith
In you.

8242

My Lord,
You have taught me
How to love You intensely
And
How to love You immensely.
Now do teach me
How to love You sleeplessly
Plus unconditionally.

8243

God came to embrace him.
Why?
Because he fired himself
With ceaseless God-glorifying prayers.

8244

I must feel
That my heart
Is a most significant source
Of divine truth.

8245

The Motherland
Is the beauty-delight
Of poetry.

8246

The Fatherland
Is the thunder-roar
Of prose.

8247

When I love God frequently,
God tells me:
“My child, take anything
That you want from Me.”

8248

When I love God
Sleeplessly and breathlessly,
God tells me:
“My child, from now on,
I am all yours.”

8249

If your morning prayer
Does not include gratitude,
Then it is of no avail.

8250

Heaven’s official currency
Is
My God-gratitude-fragrance.

8251

My heart’s God-tears
Must irrigate
The entire world.

8252

Whenever God writes to me,
He never forgets to end the letter
With two specific lines:
“My child, I love you intensely.
My child, I need you badly.”

8253

May my God-surrender-life
Become a permanent experience
For me.

8254

Nothing can be
As beautiful and pure
And nothing can be
More pleasing to God
Than our heart-tears.

8255

When I am in my soul,
I enjoy my soul’s
Ecstasy-sea.

8256

When I am in my body,
I enjoy my body’s
Lethargy-coma.

8257

At every moment
I treasure my Lord’s
Compassion-Rain.

8258

At every moment
My Lord treasures
My gratitude-flames.

8259

A sleepless surrender is needed
To better understand the purpose
Of God’s Justice-Light.

8260

There can be
No satisfactory substitute
For my Lord’s Forgiveness-Heart.

8261

Do not stop dreaming.
Dreaming is the harbinger
Of God-becoming.

8262

My seeker-friend,
Since surrender is missing
In your spiritual life,
You will have to cover
A longer than the longest distance.

8263

God’s Love
My heart and I
Definitely have.

8264

God’s Peace
My mind and I
Do not have —
Even an iota.

8265

We are so fortunate
That our heart-dictionary
Does not house the word
“Negativity.”

8266

I am sure God is tired
Of my old life:
A life of depression-night.

8267

Spirituality is nothing other than
Surrender to God’s Will
At every moment.

8268

We came down
From God
The Transcendental Vision.

8269

We enter
Into God
The Universal Manifestation.

8270

The highest quality
Of aspiration
Can be attained
Only by sleepless self-giving.

8271

Every morning
My Lord enters into my mind
To kindle enthusiasm-lamp.

8272

May the beauty
Of the heart
And the positivity
Of the mind
Always mingle together.

8273

As God devours
My darkness-night,
Even so
I am determined to devour
God’s Light-Delight.

8274

My heart’s sweetness-smile
Is all my Lord wants
From me.

8275

We can never be perfect
If we fail to see ourselves
All-where.

8276

The day breaks.
My God-gratitude-heart
Sings.

8277

Fame on earth
Has no access
To Heaven.

8278

Faith in Mother Earth
And faith in God
Can unmistakably have always
A free access to Heaven.

8279

A reasoning mind
Is
A floundering life.

8280

No matter how kind
And compassionate Light is
Towards ignorance-night,
Ignorance-night is always ready
To fight against Light.

8281

May my searching mind
Always be prepared
To accept the Light from Above.

8282

The mind
Is apt to talk
Most eloquently.

8283

The heart
Is apt to listen
Untiringly.

8284

God the Compassion
Is the root of life.
Man the God-acceptance
Is the branch.

8285

I cry with breathless joy
When I see God’s Forgiveness-Feet
Are mediating between
Heaven’s indifference
And
Earth’s insolence.

8286

If your unconditional surrender
To God’s Will is genuine,
Then God will give you
A free passport
To enter into His Heart-Kingdom.

8287

Waste not a second!
The Lord Supreme is beckoning you
To fly to Him
At your fastest speed.

8288

We must never forget
That our very breath
Is an unconditional gift from God,
Our Lord Beloved Supreme.

8289

If you give your love and gratitude
To God every day,
Your outer life will grow strikingly
And
Your inner life will glow immeasurably.

8290

My joy knows no bounds,
For my heart has received
The receptivity-award
From my Lord Beloved Supreme.

8291

My Lord,
Each time I see Your Signature
Inside my heart,
I make a new solemn promise
For Your complete manifestation
Here on earth.

8292

A divine server
Is the fulfilment
Of God’s
Unlimited Dreams.

8293

The tranquillity of my heart
Embodies
God’s boundless Love.

8294

If you want to run at top speed
Towards your Goal,
Then God-surrender
Is of paramount importance.

8295

The heart is happy
And satisfied
By feeling that the moon
Is beautiful.

8296

The mind is happy
And satisfied
By thinking that the moon
Is fearful and blightful.

8297

Who are my companions?
My companions are
God-hunger-seekers.

8298

God always wants me
To think of
The transcendental Goal
And not of the distance.

8299

When I admire God,
God tells me
To come and stand
Very close to him.

8300

When I love God,
God tells me:
“Hurry up, My child,
Hurry up!
I am eagerly waiting
For an embrace from you.”

8301

Alas, when will this world of ours
Ever care for
Simplicity-aspiration?

8302

Alas, when will this world of ours
Ever care for
Sincerity-devotion?

8303

Alas, when will this world of ours
Ever care for
Perfection-indispensability?

8304

When our souls start glowing
Inside our hearts,
They never stop.

8305

If you do not live inside your heart,
That means you are a real vagabond
In your inner world.

8306

Eternity laughs and laughs
At our earthly
Monumental achievements.

8307

If you want to live
Inside your heart-temple,
Then sweep away the dust
Of the past.

8308

The heart is not afraid
Of God’s powerful Eye,
But of His tearful Eye.

8309

My heart is not moved
By God’s Miracle-Hands,
But by His Compassion-Eye.

8310

My Lord Supreme,
How could You go away
And leave me alone,
Knowing perfectly well
That the devouring ignorance-tigers
Are all around me?

8311

When I self-givingly smile,
Heaven immediately opens up
Its gate.

8312

Everything that God does for humanity,
Either in the inner world
Or the outer world,
Is free of charge.

8313

I have seen the beauty
Of my Master’s lotus-feet.
I have enjoyed the fragrance
Of my Master’s compassion-feet.
I am now the delight
Of my Master’s forgiveness-feet.

8314

God reveals Himself
In and through the smiles
Of my face.

8315

God reveals Himself
In and through the tears
Of my eyes.

8316

On you proceed,
On you proceed!
The road is infinitely longer
Than you can ever imagine.

8317

As soon as my doubting mind
Starts its doubting game,
My aspiration-heart departs.

8318

Miracles cannot satisfy
Our heart-hunger.
Miracles feed
Our mind-curiosity.

8319

Aspiration tells us
How far
We are supposed to go.

8320

Aspiration tells us
How little
We are supposed to carry with us
Along the way.

8321

God the Compassion
Does not ask me
How much I can give Him.

8322

God the Compassion
Asks me only
How much I can take from Him.

8323

My goal is to traverse
The uncharted land
Of my soul.

8324

May my life become
A God-promising
Fulfilment-satisfaction.

8325

May my life become
A golden light
Of my God-blossoming heart.

8326

Do not cry,
Do not cry.
Just prayerfully smile,
If God-Forgiveness
Is your genuine expectation.

8327

My God-eagerness-heart,
You have simply no idea
How I treasure you!

8328

My God-readiness-mind,
Every day you are increasing
My confidence and pride in you.

8329

My love, my devotion
And my surrender —
These three divine gifts
I bring out from God’s Heart
And place at God’s Feet.

8330

I do not want to remember,
Even for a fleeting minute,
That once upon a time
I walked along the path
Of my narrowness-mind.

8331

What am I doing?
I am walking along the path
Of my wideness-heart
Slowly, steadily and unerringly.

8332

God invited me to be the master
Of my mind.
Alas, I have become my mind’s slave
Instead.

8333

Divinity-flooded emotions
A true God-lover has
And is.

8334

My Lord
Lives in the vicinity
Of my clarity-mind.

8335

My Lord
Lives in the purity-temple
Of my heart.

8336

No matter how much frustration
I pour into my Lord’s Heart,
He tells me:
“My child,
Give Me more,
If you have still more to give.
Empty yourself completely.”

8337

I am self-givingly accompanying
My speeding soul.
Therefore, my Lord Supreme
Has abundant Pride in me.

8338

The sooner you extinguish
Your desire-fire,
The more God will shower
His choicest Blessings upon you.

8339

A God-unbeliever becomes
A God-believer
When tragedy-doom is imminent.

8340

A God-hater becomes
A God-lover
Not because God is all-powerful,
But because God is all-forgiving.

8341

Do not be disappointed,
My heart.
God will not be able
To remain away any longer
From your orphan cries and tears.

8342

What do I drink ceaselessly?
I drink my Lord’s
Nectar-Delight-Forgiveness.

8343

Every day my Lord Supreme
Begs me
To devour voraciously
His Compassion-Smiles.

8344

God smiles and smiles and smiles
When I place at His Feet
The helplessness and hopelessness
Of my heart-tears.

8345

There is only one winner:
God’s sleepless
Victory-singer.

8346

Before our God-realisation,
Our heart remains
An unexplored God-territory.

8347

My Lord,
If You want to forget everything else,
You may do so.
But keep my life always
Under Your Protection-Tree.

8348

How difficult it is
To believe the mind
When it makes
Self-improvement-promises!

8349

I do not want my heart
Ever to know
How maliciously and unjustly
My unlit mind criticises
My heart.

8350

He who is all heart
Can only breathe in
And breathe out
With a childlike simplicity.
Others may fail,
But he who is all heart
Will eventually succeed.

8351

If you want to maintain
Your innocence,
Then do not allow
Your dividing mind
To overpower you.

8352

If you really want to be
A seven-year-old child,
Then forcefully grab your head
And throw it into your heart-sea.

8353

Let us give all our mind-power
To God unreservedly.
Lo and behold,
He will turn it into
His Nectar-Delight.

8354

Make friends with
Your heart-gardener,
And keep away from
Both the mind-jungle
And
The mind-jungle-owner.

8355

We get the lessons of the heart
Only when we walk along
The sunlit path.

8356

You must listen
To your heart-teacher,
If you are planning to study
At the inner school.

8357

Age can never be
The real problem.
The real and only problem
Is our self-doubt-mind.

8358

If we really fear God,
Then we do not have to
Be afraid of
Any human being on earth.

8359

For our outer success
And inner progress,
We must keep our body, vital,
Mind and heart
Under our perfect control.

8360

I always accept most gratefully
The scoldings of my Inner Pilot
To make my fastest progress.

8361

When we give our Master
The full responsibility
For our inner life and outer life,
He immediately claims us
As his own, very own.

8362

I shall never forget
All the blessingful smiles
That I have received from my Master
Over the years.

8363

I am ready to forget the days
When my Master admired me,
But I am not going to forget
The day I offered my heart-tears
To my Master.

8364

What can be more significant
In a seeker’s life
Than to keep in mind always
His Master’s compassion-flooded eye?

8365

O seeker,
If your Master shows you
A displeasure-face,
Immediately remember that
It is absolutely necessary.

8366

If you cannot accept cheerfully
Your Master’s outer criticism,
Then you may develop slowly
And steadily
Inner cancer.

8367

Sing, sing all the time,
O seeker,
Your heart-songs
Right in front of your mind.
Your mind will ultimately surrender.

8368

My Inner Pilot tells me
To concentrate on my heart
During my meditation
And not on the clock.

8369

Believe it or not,
If you sincerely aspire and meditate,
Your aspiration and meditation
Are of tremendous help
To your Inner Pilot.

8370

When your consciousness
Is at its highest,
Do not forget that it is
A joint achievement of yours
And your Master’s.

8371

If you do not believe in God,
Who will be the real loser,
If not the real fool in you?

8372

If your Master appreciates
Your good heart,
That does not mean you can continue
With your wild mind and vital.

8373

Nobody can properly answer
The question
Except your heart,
If you are, indeed,
A true disciple.

8374

Every day I am treasuring
More and more
My sweet God-surrender-life.

8375

Jealousy
Is nothing short of
A ferocious tiger
That can devour everything
In a twinkling.

8376

We must know that
If we do not avoid
Our undivine and uncomely thoughts,
Then we are heading towards
Our doom.

8377

Alas, fear has already convinced
Our mind
That it is a time bomb.
At one point,
Fear can destroy us.

8378

Do not allow fear and doubt
To torture you.
Your own love of God
Will frighten them.

8379

True, the world is false.
It is equally true that
There are many individuals
Who are most sincerely trying
To perfect their natures
For God-Satisfaction
In the world.

8380

When two oneness-hearts talk
To each other,
We see the most beautiful dance
Of affection and sweetness.

8381

The ancient heart
Was flooded
With affection.

8382

The modern heart
Has always a shortage
Of affection.

8383

God’s Compassion-Eye
Does visit me every day,
But my God-frustration-mind
Quite often
Blinds my God-aspiration-heart.

8384

God-manifestation
Is an experience
That cannot be separated
From the smiles and the tears
Of the heart.

8385

God-realisation definitely demands
Not one, but many incarnations
Of the heart’s
Mounting flames.

8386

God-realisation demands
Sleepless and breathless preparation
In the inner life of aspiration
And
In the outer life of dedication.

8387

We are so fortunate
That God never loses hope.
His Hope is our only salvation.

8388

The entire universe is sustained
By only one thing:
God’s Hope.

8389

We need God’s Heart
For our
Heavenly realisation.

8390

God needs our hearts
For His
Earthly manifestation.

8391

The outer manifestation
Needs
God the Power.

8392

The inner manifestation
Needs
God the Beloved.

8393

Without humanity’s cooperation,
No spiritual Master will ever be able
To expedite
The evolution of the world.

8394

God-realisation
And
God-manifestation
Are a two-way street.

8395

If we do not conquer
Our inner enemies —
Fear, doubt, pride, anxiety
And worry —
Our fastest progress in the spiritual life
Will remain a fruitless dream.

8396

The human in me
Is responsible
For God the Sorrow.

8397

The divine in me
Is responsible
For God the Happiness.

8398

I am giving my Lord
What I have:
My soulfulness-eyes.

8399

My Lord is giving me
What He is:
His Fulness-Heart.

8400

May my heart-home
Always remain ignorant of
My world-ignorance-night.

8401

My Lord comes to me
And tells me
That unless I give Him
My expectation-mind,
He will not give me
His Illumination-Heart.

8402

My Lord Supreme,
Will You not help me
To become all Yours?
“My child,
What else have I been doing
All the time?”

8403

Truth can have many faces,
But love has and is
Only one face.

8404

The hunger of the desiring mind
Leads us
Without.

8405

The hunger of the aspiring heart
Leads us
Within.

8406

The hunger of the illumining soul
Leads us
Upward —
High, higher, highest.

8407

It is always advisable
To meditate
On Whom you love,
Your Beloved Supreme.

8408

It is always right
To concentrate
On God the Compassion.

8409

It is always right
To pray
To God the Forgiveness.

8410

It is always good
To contemplate
On God the Satisfaction.

8411

My Lord,
May I know who You are?

“My child,
I am the breath of your soul,
I am the heart of your life.”

8412

Ignorance has no place
Against
My God-oneness-heart.

8413

God-penalties
Must be cheerfully
And proudly accepted.

8414

Our repentance-tears
Do not purify
Our mind.

8415

It is God’s Compassion-Eye
That purifies
Our mind.

8416

Although I crawl,
Although I fall,
I still feel that one day
I shall meet
The Lord Beloved Supreme.

8417

Even though we take regular
Aspiration-exercise,
If we do not take regular
Dedication-exercise,
Then how can we expect God to come
And teach us
His Eternity’s Song and Infinity’s Dance?

8418

God’s Universal Heart-Garden
Has a special place
For my heart’s tiny
Gratitude-seeds.

8419

Each selfless deed
Of my heart
Is a unique revelation
Of my Lord Supreme.

8420

When I am in my mind,
I move around
In nothingness-desert.

8421

When I am in my heart,
I enjoy the beauty
And fragrance
Of my inner fulness-garden.

8422

God feels miserable
When I tell Him
That I love
Even the undesirable
And unlovable human beings.
For Him, everybody is desirable
And lovable.

8423

My Lord
Compassionately clasps
My tearful eyes.

8424

I lovingly and prayerfully clasp
My Lord’s
Forgiveness-Feet.

8425

We all need
A childlike flower-heart
To melt the Heart
Of our Lord Supreme.

8426

Alas, I do not know
How I will ever be able
To extend
My narrow mind-horizon.

8427

The doubting mind
Is too smart to listen
To any divine discourse.

8428

May a new God-dream
Take birth every day
Inside my aspiration-heart.

8429

Be wise!
Do not allow at any time
Your outer life-turbulence
To disturb your inner life-poise.

8430

I give God an iota of gratitude.
God gives me in return
A sky-vast Smile.

8431

Dissatisfaction
Is bound to befriend
The man who always lives
In the mind.

8432

God’s Greatness-Laughter
Humiliates
My pride.

8433

God’s Goodness-Smile
Eliminates
My insecurity.

8434

My Lord Supreme,
I do not know
How You can turn a deaf ear
All the time
To my heart’s prayerful entreaties.

8435

The mind-inspiration-certainty
May at times
Dwindle.

8436

The heart-aspiration-certainty
May at times
Dwindle.

8437

The soul-realisation of the Supreme
Can never, never
Dwindle.

8438

I am astonished to measure
The smallness
Of the unaspiring mind.

8439

No human life
Can indefinitely deny
The divinity of Truth.

8440

Each time I serve
My Lord Supreme selflessly,
He blesses me with a new
Heart-Illumination-Smile.

8441

My mind,
You know only
How to talk and boast
And nothing more.

8442

I literally became ecstatic
The moment I saw my Beloved Lord
Holding His Flute
In His Hands.

8443

O fear, O overconfidence,
My aspiration-heart
Has no room for you two.

8444

How can we separate joy
From sorrow
When we see that joy
And sorrow
Love to live together?

8445

A deceitful gain
Is the very beginning
Of ultimate pain.

8446

I shall not allow
Either sweet memories
Or sad memories
To disturb
My peace of mind.

8447

My heart’s soulfulness
Never forgets the bliss
Of God’s Compassion-Eye.

8448

Two things I love
Of my Lord Supreme:
His Authority and Supremacy
In my life.

8449

My Beloved Lord Supreme
Keeps me from falling,
Even though I do not pray
And I do not meditate
Regularly.

8450

A new Command
From my Lord Supreme:
“My child, do not waste
A fleeting moment.”

8451

A new Request
From my Lord Supreme:
“My child, it is high time
For you to wake up.”

8452

God’s Compassion
Has time infinite
To transform
My stone-heart-nature.

8453

I do not know
How I can expect anything
From God
When I do not have
A God-longing heart.

8454

My Lord, today I have
A very special prayer.
I need a purity-heart
And sincerity-mind
More than ever.

8455

God’s hallowed Touch
Has not only
Made my heart pure,
But also made my life perfect.

8456

My Lord tells me
That the more I am attached
To Him,
The sooner I shall be able
To detach myself
From my earthly bondage-life.

8457

If it is something spiritual,
Then do not try to acquire it speedily.
Acquire it slowly, steadily
And unerringly.

8458

Oh, give me a new heart
Totally empty
Of expectation-frustration.

8459

Oh, give me a new mind
Totally empty
Of curiosity-futility.

8460

I pass my days
Hoping that God
Will one day fulfil
At least one of my desires.

8461

God passes His days
Hoping that
At least one day
I will have no desires.

8462

Our love and devotion
Unmistakably take us
To God.

8463

To our surrender
God Himself
Comes.

8464

God tells me that
I am perfect
Only when I live inside
My heart-home.

8465

My heart shall be supremely satisfied
Only when my Lord’s Compassion
And Affection
Penetrate my entire being.

8466

My Lord, do strengthen
The determination of my mind
So that I can sincerely search
For You.

8467

My Lord, do awaken my life
So that I can speedily run
Towards You.

8468

My Lord, do feed my heart
So that I can manifest Your Light
On earth.

8469

My Lord,
Will there come a day in my life
When I shall be
A true happiness-satisfaction
To You?

8470

I love knocking
At my Lord’s
Compassion-Heart-Door.

8471

God loves knocking
At my
Frustration-mind-door.

8472

Unconditional surrender
Is nothing short of a goal
That can unmistakably
Be reached.

8473

Since my Lord Beloved Supreme
Loves my heart blindly,
How is it that my life
Cannot follow Him proudly?

8474

My mind-cloud is dispelled,
Not by my Lord’s
Compassion-Eye,
But by my Beloved Supreme’s
Forgiveness-Heart.

8475

My Lord,
I am really tired
Of coming and going.
May I not stay at Your Feet
Forever and forever?

8476

In everything we do
We must be daring,
Specially in our
Love-devotion-surrender-life.

8477

My Lord,
Why do I forget
That when I love You,
I get infinitely more from You
Than when I worship You?

8478

My life’s excruciating pangs begin
When my heart is not in tune
With God’s Heart.

8479

My Lord, let me swim and swim
In Your
Compassion-Affection-Love-Sea.

8480

My Lord, in Your absence,
Everything I need.
In Your Presence,
I do not need a single thing,
Either from this world or even from You.

8481

When my Lord makes fun of me,
It is nothing short of
Sweet torture.

8482

My Lord,
Only with You in mind
Can I go anywhere I want to.

8483

He who says he has no time
To meditate
Is, indeed, a self-deceiver.

8484

Only a seeker knows
How painful it is
To disconnect his heart
From God’s Heart.

8485

Only when I love God,
I find that I have many good things
Which I never knew.

8486

My Lord,
My task is to love You only.
Your task is to fulfil Yourself
In Your own Way
In and through me.

8487

My Lord,
If You really want to satisfy me,
Then do allow me to place Your Feet
Inside my heart.

8488

If yours is a devotion-occupation,
Then God cannot remain
Away from you.

8489

You may be physically close
To your Master,
But in your inner life,
You may be millions of miles away.

8490

He may be far, very far, physically
From his Master,
But in his inner life,
He may be closer than the closest
To his Master.

8491

Nothing can escape God’s Eye.
This conviction-belief I have
Only when I live inside my heart
And not inside my mind.

8492

Alas,
Falsehood has the rare capacity
To germinate in every soil.

8493

Beauty
Is the morning star
Of my aspiration-heart.

8494

Peace
Is the evening star
Of my surrender-life.

8495

What is insecurity?
It is something that dampens the joy
Of my heart-garden.

8496

What is an ignorance-mind?
An ignorance-mind is something
That never accepts defeat
In a noble way.

8497

God never allows
Any hero-seeker
To enjoy life’s battlefield-retreat.

8498

My selflessness-hours
Meet with God’s Delight-days
And nights.

8499

God’s very Presence
Inside my heart
Is my enlightenment-thrill.

8500

There is no heart-road
That is not paved
With God’s Love-Smile.

8501

My Lord tells me
That I can sleep,
But I must never allow
My hope to sleep.

8502

My mind
Constantly looks
For faults in others.

8503

My heart
Immediately looks
For remedies.

8504

Peace, light and bliss —
They are infinite because
Their owner, God, is infinite.

8505

You fool!
God’s Wisdom-Light
Will not give you any chance
To assert your will
Over His Will.

8506

Even when we do not listen to God,
His Compassion-Heart quite often
Comes to save us.

8507

When we listen to God,
He gladly becomes fully responsible
For what we do and do not do.

8508

There is no such thing
As overeating
God’s Nectar-Delight.

8509

How did he realise God?
He realised God by devouring
God’s Peace, Light and Bliss
In measureless measure.

8510

O seeker, use the heart,
If you truly long for
Inner progress.

8511

O seeker, if you use the mind
All the time,
You will be the loser
Both in the inner world of aspiration
And in the outer world of dedication.

8512

It is quite natural
That the Master will give
Utmost opportunity to close disciples
To swim in the infinite
Ocean-light and delight
Of his heart.

8513

My Lord, I can clearly see
That You have withdrawn from me.
Will You not grant me
Another chance to please You
In Your own Way?

8514

God never asks you
And will never ask you
To prove to the world
Your affection and love for Him
By resorting to austerity.

8515

What you need is illumination,
And this illumination can be found
In God’s sweetest Affection
And Concern for you.

8516

If you have implicit faith in God,
Then only He will invite you
To come to His Heart-Temple.

8517

God will bless you
With His own Heart-Shrine
If you support your soul
In every way unconditionally.

8518

God’s Heart-Palace will always have
Plenty of room to accommodate
All God-seekers of the world.

8519

A oneness-heart
Is of paramount importance
For the ultimate God-realisation.

8520

God will never be pleased
If you bury yourself
In the Himalayan caves
For God-realisation
And
God-manifestation.
Those ancient God-practice-days
Are absolutely unnecessary
For today’s man.

8521

What the modern seeker needs
Is world-acceptance
In and through self-expansion.

8522

If it is true that your Master
Realised God for himself,
Then it is equally true
That he is manifesting God
For you, only for you.

8523

For God-realisation,
Your Master meditated
On his heart
Sleeplessly and breathlessly.

8524

For God-manifestation,
Your Master has included
Each and every human being
To love and serve God.

8525

When I pray to God,
I pray for the betterment
Of the world.

8526

When I meditate on God,
I meditate for the fulfilment
Of God.

8527

Be not afraid
Of the wild world-criticism.
Your God-realisation will never depend
On the world-opinion.

8528

How stupid I am!
I think the Supreme does not need
More than one flower-plant
In His Heart-Garden.
Needless to say,
That particular plant
Has to be me!

8529

Each seeker
Is a most beautiful flower
God offers to Mother Earth
From His Heart-Garden.

8530

Each soulful prayer helps me
To come nearer to God’s
Heart-Home.

8531

Each fruitful meditation makes me
A most significant member
Of God’s immediate Family.

8532

God’s Compassion-School
May be for
Our life-entertainment.

8533

God’s Justice-School
Is definitely for
Our heart-enlightenment.

8534

My Lord Supreme has made me
Immeasurably happy
By giving me the capacity
To become at once
A God-singer in my outer life
And
A God-lover in my inner life.

8535

Our spirituality demands
Constant vigilance
And alertness.
The ego-tiger can at any moment
Devour us.

8536

With an unaspiring mind,
When I go to visit my Master,
It is nothing but a pleasure-trip.

8537

With an aspiring heart,
When I go to visit my Master,
It is, indeed, a divine pilgrimage.

8538

Nobody can be a supremely chosen
Child of God
Unless he has a magnanimous heart
And a self-giving life.

8539

The mind-feeders
Have the capacity
To separate countries.

8540

The heart-feeders
Have the capacity
To unite not one,
But all countries.

8541

No soulful song can ever be produced
By the doubting, dividing
And suspecting mind.

8542

Where do I live
When I do not meditate?
I invariably live inside
My heart-desert.

8543

Where do I live
When I do not pray?
I unmistakably live inside
My mind-prison.

8544

May my morning meditation
Be blessed
With God’s torrential Joy.

8545

May my evening meditation
Be blessed
With God’s deepening Peace.

8546

O seeker,
Sing God-songs self-givingly.
Immortality will beckon you.

8547

When we prayerfully and soulfully sing,
We clearly see that God’s Beauty
Is growing very fast
Inside our heart-garden.

8548

When a seeker sings self-givingly,
He enters into the realm of
The Musical Beyond.

8549

The inner art is a soulful song.
This song we offer to God,
Both for God-realisation
And God-manifestation.

8550

Every day
If you sing a devotion-song,
Your God-devotion is bound
To increase.

8551

We may not be proud of ourselves,
But God definitely is,
For He sees us
With the Eye of His infinite Compassion.

8552

The Master’s physical presence
You may not feel,
But the Master’s spiritual presence
You are bound to feel
If you can maintain your heart-cry —
Always sincere.

8553

If you do not have confidence
In your Master,
If you do not have faith
In your Master,
If you do not have an appreciation-mind
And an admiration-heart
For your Master,
I do not know how you will succeed.

8554

God is very proud of His seeker-children
Who are blooming and blossoming
In accordance with His sweet Will.

8555

O seeker,
The readiness of your mind,
The eagerness of your heart
And
The willingness of your vital
Will definitely make you
A real spiritual leader
In the course of time.

8556

Let us pray,
Before it is too late,
For the transformation
Of our nature.

8557

If you do not inspire others,
If you do not encourage others —
Which is your bounden duty —
How can you expect
Your aspiration-dedication
To give you satisfaction-delight?

8558

Whenever we fail to please God,
We must make a fresh attempt
Again and again,
Him to please in His own Way.

8559

Challenge we must
The outer world and the inner world
For our self-transcendence.

8560

God hopes that soon, very soon,
He will compel us
To finish the race.

8561

My Lord and I
Are broadcasting each other.
I am saying that because of my Lord,
One day I shall become perfect.

8562

My Lord says that
Because of me,
He can have another name:
Satisfaction.

8563

If it is difficult for you
To meditate for long hours,
Then at least try to smile
For a few minutes.
The poison of your mind
Will immediately disappear.

8564

Self-giving
Is the beginning
Of God-awakening.

8565

Spirituality —
Conscious God-oneness —
Can solve all the problems
Of humanity.

8566

Charity can feed
The body
But not the soul.

8567

Spirituality can feed at once
Both the body
And the soul.

8568

Wherever there is insecurity,
There will always be an absence
Of God-satisfaction.

8569

Self-control
Is one of the divine virtues,
But not the only virtue needed
To realise God.

8570

Constant, sleepless
And breathless God-surrender
Can definitely make us
Realise God.

8571

My pride tells me
That God is incomplete
Without me.

8572

My humility tells me
That God does not need me
To complete His Divinity;
His Divinity is only helping me
To complete my life
By becoming one with God
At every moment.

8573

Be absolutely sure
Whether you have come
Into the world
To fulfil your Master’s needs
Or to feed your ego
In a secret way.

8574

The inner courage
Is absolutely necessary
To be on any spiritual path.

8575

Wisdom
Is oneness-establishment
In action and in speech.

8576

For the needy,
God will present Himself
Here, there and all-where.

8577

The best progress
Man can ever make
Is through the feeling
Of a oneness-world.

8578

The human love
Can at times
Be dangerous.

8579

The divine love
Is always gracious, precious
And God-glorious.

8580

May my heart’s gratitude,
May my life’s perfection
And
May my Lord’s Satisfaction
Always remain together.

8581

Where is perfection?
Perfection is in my heart’s
God-growing and God-glowing
Devotion.

8582

My life’s perfection
Is founded upon
My conscious surrender
To God’s Will.

8583

The beauty of my perfection-aspiration
Solely derives from
God’s Satisfaction in me.

8584

My self-transcending perfection
Is
God’s all-smiling Satisfaction.

8585

God draws us to His Feet
Only by exercising the power
Of His perfect Satisfaction in us.

8586

My inner faith
Does not depend upon
My outer experiences.

8587

My inner faith depends upon
My cheerful self-giving
To God’s Will.

8588

The stronger
The inner revolution,
The purer
The outer revelation.

8589

My Beloved Supreme,
I really do not want You
To tell me a lie.
My gratitude-heart
Will never be equal
To Your Compassion-Eye.

8590

God is responsible
For my life —
This can be true only when
I am my all-surrender-life
To my Lord Supreme.

8591

No spiritual problem
Can ever be solved
By the intelligence
Of the human mind.

8592

My Lord, You have protected me
Against many things.
I would like You to protect me
From one thing more:
My negativity-mind.

8593

My world-acceptance
Is the beginning of
My life-perfection.

8594

When I make a mistake,
God gives me another chance
To be perfect.

8595

When I criticise my fellow citizens,
Even God’s Compassion-Eye
Withdraws from me.

8596

The more we can love
God the creation,
The nearer we shall feel
The Presence
Of God the Satisfaction.

8597

I have not come into the world
To know my life
Beyond birth and death.

8598

I have come into the world
To offer the beauty of birth
And the peace of death.

8599

Our love of God-Silence
Entirely depends on our receptivity
To God-Smile.

8600

Everything you can get
In the world of silence,
But for that you need one thing:
Receptivity
In measureless measure.

8601

My Lord,
May we both have always
Attentive ears
To our pitiful cries.

8602

My Lord,
You have chosen me
With Your unfailing Love.
Therefore, how can I ever fail You?

8603

We shall have to long for God
At every moment,
Not only in the darkness of night.

8604

When I look through
My Lord’s Eyes,
Everything is growing,
Everyone is progressing.

8605

My Lord,
How can I ever love You enough?

“My child,
You can love Me enough
By repeating every morning:
‘Today I shall love my Lord
Infinitely more
Than I loved Him yesterday’.”

8606

When I most sincerely pray
And meditate,
My Lord blesses me
With a security-life
And a confidence-heart.

8607

I make deplorable mistakes
Only when I am not afraid of losing
My Lord Supreme.

8608

If anything is divine,
Then that very thing
Has to unite us
With our Lord Supreme.

8609

Is there anybody in this world
Who is not stunned
By life’s unexpected blows?

8610

We must realise that in life
Nothing starts in vain
And nothing ends in vain.

8611

We are happy
When we consider ourselves
As pilgrims on earth.
We are miserable
When we consider ourselves
As strangers and foreigners on earth.

8612

The more I liberate myself
From this world,
The more I get the opportunity
To bind myself
To my Lord Supreme.

8613

When I pray,
I sow the seeds of love and devotion
In my heart-garden.
When I meditate and contemplate,
I reap the harvest.

8614

The God-searching mind
Does have the capacity
To soar towards God.

8615

In this world,
Everything is deceptive —
Even the happiness that we run after.

8616

I shall be happy, my Lord,
Only when my entire being
Develops the capacity
To fly towards You.

8617

When I tell my Lord
That I have been waiting for Him
For a long time,
My Lord makes fun of me.
He tells me,
“My child,
Since you have been waiting
For a long time,
You can wait a little longer.
Let My Hour strike.”

8618

In the inner world,
Unlike the outer world,
We do not lose anyone
If we sincerely love.

8619

Surrender, O my mind, surrender.
The Delight of Heaven shall claim you
As its very own.

8620

If we do not have
A burning aspiration
For our Lord Supreme,
Then naturally our progress
Will be slower than the slowest.

8621

O my unwillingness-mind,
You will suffer the greatest loss
In the long run.

8622

A constantly thinking mind
Will always have
A fruitless journey.

8623

May my determination-mind
Keep me always away from
Stark ignorance-danger.

8624

Everything dies, everybody dies.
How is it that my mind’s desires
Do not die?

8625

There is only one pilgrimage,
And that pilgrimage
Is our return-pilgrimage to God.

8626

When it is a matter of stop signs
On my way to God’s Palace,
I shall never obey.

8627

The more I know,
The less I am eager
To be proud of myself.

8628

My worries and anxieties cease
Only when my heart lives
In the heart of peace.

8629

Each thought is a bird that flies
Either in the confusion-mind-sky
Or in the illumination-heart-sky.

8630

When I pray and meditate,
God smiles and dances,
But He prefers to remain unseen.

8631

My Lord,
If You truly love me —
Which You always say —
Then smash all my pride
All at once.

8632

My Lord,
If You have true concern for me —
Which You always profess —
Then do sow humility-seeds
In my heart-garden immediately.

8633

Time does not want to wait for us,
Therefore, our Lord Beloved Supreme
Is sleeplessly beckoning us.

8634

May every day
A new hope-flower blossom
In my heart-garden.

8635

My Lord,
Do give me the capacity to have
A perennial gratitude-flower
In my heart-garden.

8636

Happiness
Is extremely proud of living inside
Divine thoughts.

8637

When I serve my Lord Supreme,
My soul gives me the salary,
Which comes directly from God
In the form of Light and Delight.

8638

If you cannot stop desiring,
Then once and for all
Desire God
And see what happens.

8639

My Lord, I beg of You
To spread Your divine Net
To catch my uncomely thoughts.

8640

Do you know
Who pulls me down?
The ignorance-lover in me.

8641

Quite often we consciously invite
Hostile forces,
Although we tell the world
They attacked us unexpectedly.

8642

I want to go to God,
But who holds me back?
My God-fearing mind.

8643

O my doubting mind,
Everyone wants to enjoy
A long vacation.
How is it that you do not care
To do the same?

8644

There is only one death
In the spiritual life,
And that death is
Aspiration-famine.

8645

My Lord Supreme,
Please do not allow me to forget
That it is I
Who am afraid of entering into
Your ever-protecting Compassion-Cage.

8646

Without the heart’s
Soulful tears,
There can be no real meditation.

8647

A true seeker
Is he who smiles
When his heart pines
For God.

8648

When I cry,
My Lord shows me
The Way.

8649

When I smile,
My Lord becomes
Both the Way and the Goal.

8650

God reminds me every day
To remain farther than the farthest
From my mind’s doubt-zone.

8651

If we love God,
Then God will supply us
With extra time to do all the things
That we are supposed to do.

8652

May each citizen of the world
Enjoy the touch of God’s Feet
The way each and every soul enjoys.

8653

The beauty of love
And the fragrance of loveliness
Are twin sisters.

8654

I call it pain,
But my Lord calls it
By a different name:
An angel, His own angel.

8655

My Lord does not want me to understand
The heart of oneness,
But to become and to remain
The heart of oneness.

8656

My Lord repeatedly asks me
To love the silence of my heart
And not the freedom of my mind.

8657

My Lord,
This time when I come to You,
Will You give me a totally new gift?

“Yes, My child,
This time I shall give you
My Heart’s golden Sky
For you to enjoy your soul’s flight.”

8658

My Lord,
Do You mind when I think of
Buying You?

“No, My child, on the contrary,
I have been telling you
That you can buy Me easily —
Just for a smile.”

8659

When I dive deep within
By virtue of my meditation,
I enjoy the fragrance
Of my gratitude-heart-blossoms.

8660

When my Lord visits
My heart-home,
He carries with Him
Thousands of His Heart’s Smiles.

8661

Never stop, never!
Carry on with your aspiration-heart
And dedication-life.
Destined is your Goal.

8662

There is only one way
To lift the world,
And that way is love, abundant love,
Ever-increasing love
And Infinity-Immortality’s Love.

8663

My Lord,
Do tell me what I should do
To please the world.

“My child,
Every day greet the world
With a blossoming smile
From your heart.”

8664

My Lord,
When I come to You,
Will You allow me to meet You
At Your Feet
And not in Your Eye?

8665

When I enter into my Lord’s Heart,
He asks me to sing my heart-songs —
As many as possible.

8666

When my Lord enters into my heart,
He commands me
To remain absolutely silent,
For He wants to create a new creation
Inside my heart.

8667

My Lord, if I give You
My heart’s pure devotion,
What will You give me
In return?

“My child, I shall immediately give you
The beauty and the fragrance
Of My Heart-Garden.”

8668

Each soulful smile of my heart
Plays the role
Of a chosen instrument
Of God.

8669

May my daily life
Be the purity
Of my heart-shrine.

8670

Like my soul,
May my heart be self-giving
In God-satisfaction-service.

8671

Alas, when shall I realise
That each unaspiring thought
Of my mind
Is the slow descent of my life?

8672

God wants me to imagine
At every moment
That my self-discovery
Is within my reach.

8673

My gratitude-heart
Is the Satisfaction-Pride
Of my Lord Supreme.

8674

How do I know what is truth
And what is falsehood?
My heart-teacher secretly tells me.

8675

The mind is totally ignorant
Of the heart’s secret
And sacred eye.

8676

A God-searching mind
Gladly follows
A God-loving heart.

8677

If you are
A supremely choice instrument
Of God,
Then you will never run short of
Readiness, willingness
And eagerness.

8678

What is self-giving?
Self-giving is, indeed,
Ecstasy-sea.

8679

If we can go beyond the mind’s
Preconceived ideas,
Then we can climb up
Loftier than the loftiest heights.

8680

Develop dynamism
Within and without.
Your age-old depression
Will nowhere be found.

8681

May my heart’s newness-joy
And my heart’s fulness-satisfaction
Remain inseparable friends.

8682

O my mind,
God never wants you
To attend ignorance-discourses.

8683

If we can somehow carry
Our daily activities
Far beyond the domain
Of the mind,
Then we shall become
Our outer success-life
And
Our inner progress-heart.

8684

No matter how short or how long
We want to walk along
God’s Road,
We needs must have
Willingness-feet.

8685

If you do not practise
Your heart-songs,
Your life will become
A true spiritual failure.

8686

I do not know why I am so stupid
That I memorise
Ignorance-teacher-lectures.

8687

The life of discipline only
Can experience
Freedom-light.

8688

Every day I am trying to go beyond
My self-taught
And self-indulgent limitations.

8689

Every morning
I pave my heart-path
With love-devotion-surrender-petals.

8690

Enthusiasm has to activate
Every part of our life
To manifest
God’s Light on earth
Swiftly and unmistakably.

8691

My Lord
Is my Lord’s
Heart-Fragrance-Sweetness.

8692

I am
My heart’s
Soul-beauty-tears.

8693

In vain, my heart every day
Begs my mind to join
The God-Light-manifestation-team.

8694

The mind’s determination
And the heart’s cheerfulness
Are always feeding and nourishing
Each other.

8695

When I offer my Lord
My sleepless heart-tears,
He blesses my heart
With His Rainbow-Smile
And His Rainbow-Delight.

8696

When I live a surrender-life,
My earth-existence becomes
Most inspiring
And most encouraging.

8697

When every second of our life
Tends towards meditation,
God-Satisfaction beckons us.

8698

If you are hankering after
Name and fame,
How can your soul ever radiate
God’s all-illumining Light?

8699

The doubting mind speaks
To the doubting mind.
The aspiring heart speaks
To the aspiring heart.
The self-giving life speaks
To the self-giving life.
God the Speaker speaks
To God the Listener.

8700

He who has fear of failure,
Failure will inevitably devour —
His heart, mind, vital
And body.

8701

Look far beyond your puny self!
God the infinite Light and Delight
Is eagerly waiting for you.

8702

Depression is immediate subtraction
Of our inner light
From the Transcendental Source.

8703

Life’s surrender
And the heart’s happiness
Are always interchangeable.

8704

I call it my silence-heart.
God calls it His heart-to-heart
Dialogue with me.

8705

Every day
I give my tearful heart-awakening
To my Lord Supreme.

8706

Not our mind,
But when our heart nears God,
It immediately unmasks itself.

8707

The meaning of Tomorrow
Is Eternity.
Therefore, here and now
I must accomplish
Everything.

8708

Quality-choice
And quantity-voice
Must go together in my life.

8709

The higher you go,
The clearer it becomes
That everything is predestined.

8710

If you want to succeed
In your outer life,
Then keep moving.

8711

If you want to proceed
In your inner life,
Then remain absolutely still —
Motionless.

8712

God-fulfilling opportunities
God Himself creates
For the sincere seekers.

8713

My heart has only one question
For me:
“Have you seen the Feet
Of our Lord Beloved Supreme?”

8714

I have only one question
For my mind:
“O my mind,
When are you going to run
Towards God,
When?”

8715

My Lord, I do not need
Constant opportunity.
What I need is
Constant willingness
From within.

8716

Silence strengthens
And enlightens
My aspiring heart.

8717

Silence awakens
And tames
My unaspiring mind.

8718

Silence cautions
And intimidates
My strangling vital.

8719

Silence commands
And strikes
My sleeping body.

8720

A suspicion-mind
Is apt to do mischief
All the time.

8721

Every day
My Lord works so hard
In training my mind
To smile at Him.

8722

If you do not expect,
You are, indeed,
A wise seeker.

8723

If you give more,
Infinitely more,
With no expectation,
Then God-satisfaction
Is blossoming
Inside your heart.

8724

The outer life
Runs after
Sound-power.

8725

The inner life
Runs after
Silence-bliss.

8726

If you are a true seeker,
Then you are bound to feel
That God
Can never be indifferent
To you.

8727

If I am a genuine God-lover,
Then I must be satisfied
In His incognito living.

8728

God does not have to convince us
Of anything He does or does not do.
It is we who have to convince ourselves
That He is all-loving and all-giving.

8729

The silence of the mind
Is, indeed,
Freedom from life-imprisonment.

8730

No matter how difficult it is,
I shall definitely go and visit
The dwelling of my soul.

8731

The outer eyesight
Can never read
The inner message.

8732

Each time a God-surrendering thought
Comes into my mind,
My Lord Supreme weeps
Tears of Delight.

8733

God the man
Is
Our strict teacher.

8734

Man the God
Is
Our secret Tutor.

8735

God the man
Tells us not to embark
On the Journey
If we are not well prepared.

8736

Man the God
Advises us to embark
On the Journey.
Preparation will come on its own
Along the way.

8737

God the man
Tells us
How far the Golden Shore is.

8738

Man the God
Not only supplies us
With the Boat,
But also becomes the Boatman.

8739

God the man
Demands
Constant fitness —
Inner and outer.

8740

Man the God
Whispers:
Readiness, willingness
And eagerness.

8741

God the man
Tells us
That only the brave
Can arrive at
The Ultimate Goal.

8742

Man the God
Tells us
That whoever is chosen
Is destined to arrive at
The Ultimate Goal.

8743

God the man
Determines
All our actions.

8744

Man the God
Refines
All our actions.

8745

God the man
Gives us
World-detachment-incantation.

8746

Man the God
Gives us
World-enlightenment-incantation.

8747

I am always afraid
Of nearing
God the man.

8748

I am always fond
Of swimming
With man the God.

8749

My ego is at once
My mind-rapture
And my heart-torture.

8750

My Lord Supreme,
Every morning do allow me
To place at Your Feet
A garland made out of
My gratitude-heartbeats.

8751

When I am in my mind,
My God-exasperation
Bombards.

8752

When I am in my heart,
My God-satisfaction
Reigns.

8753

Can you imagine that
God the Compassion-Ocean
Tells the whole world
That I deserve all the credit
For my God-realisation!

8754

My mind, I warn you!
Do not make faces
When my Beloved Supreme
Embraces my heart.

8755

My mind never agrees
With my heart
When my heart says
That to love God
Is to grow into God.

8756

Any thought transcendental
Automatically becomes
Indomitable.

8757

If there is no
Life-awakening,
There can be no
Heart-gratitude.

8758

Charity is laudable,
But to say charity can solve
Humanity’s poverty-problem
Is absurdity.

8759

My world-service-determination
And
My mind-transformation-satisfaction
Go together.

8760

There can be nothing
As cruel
As indifference.

8761

A compassion-flooded Master’s anger
Is not real
And can never be real.

8762

If we want to please
Our Lord Supreme,
Then we must try to cure
This eternally sick world.

8763

The more sincere you are
In loving God,
The clearer you are becoming
The real God-man.

8764

At times
The mind-revolution
Is absolutely needed.

8765

The revelation of the heart
And
The manifestation of life
Are always needed.

8766

No matter how sincere and pure
My gratitude is,
It can never be worthy
Of my Lord’s
Compassion-Eye.

8767

My Lord Beloved Supreme,
If You really love me,
Then You will not wait
For a fleeting moment
To steal
My ever-torturing little ‘i’.

8768

God always loves us,
But He loves us infinitely more
When we speak to Him
In the interest of our fellow beings.

8769

It is the insecurity-mind
And not the purity-heart
That is terribly afraid of
Eternity, Infinity and Immortality.

8770

When the mind-understanding ends,
The heart-faith triumphantly starts
Its journey.

8771

Oneness must always
Be encouraged
For its unfailing continuation.

8772

The heart’s oneness
And
The life’s fulness
Secretly try
To illumine the mind.
But alas, they sadly fail!

8773

O separation-mind,
Be wise!
Immediately start longing for the One,
Searching for the One
And
Crying for the One Absolute.

8774

If the mind really loves God,
Then the life can never be
Afraid of God.

8775

The heart can easily love God,
But the mind can be
Deplorably afraid of God.

8776

A life of service
Is the most beautiful spark
Of the mind’s
Transformation-fire.

8777

The mind that knows
No oneness
Can never be accepted
By peace.

8778

Judgement does not have
The capacity
To give us true happiness,
But illumination does have
The capacity.

8779

God has repeatedly asked me
To transform my desire-life
Into my aspiration-heart.

8780

God’s Compassion-Eye
Has two most beautiful
And powerful wings.
Every day they fly towards me.

8781

Silence has energy.
Silence has strength.
Silence is a God-fulfilment-promise.

8782

If God can be always satisfied with me,
What is wrong with me
That I am satisfied with Him
Only on rare occasions?

8783

O vastness-sky,
Why, why are you hiding
My Lord Beloved Supreme?

8784

O God-Message-carrier-air,
I cannot believe
That you do not have
A special Message for me
From my Lord Beloved Supreme.

8785

The mind longs for
An opportunity-companion.
The heart longs for
A duty-fulfilment-companion.

8786

I look for
A God-satisfaction-enjoyer
In God’s own Way.

8787

God has given some choice souls
A special capacity
To enjoy the beauty and fragrance
Of Paradise
Even while they are on their way
To Paradise.

8788

Of all the troublemakers,
A suspicion-mind
Has no equal.

8789

Infinite patience we need
Either to illumine or to erase
The imperfections
Of our life.

8790

O my mind,
Do you know that
Non-attachment-songs
Are all-fulfilling realities?

8791

Without God-identification,
No virtue
Is worth having.

8792

Out of His unconditional
And infinite Bounty,
God has given me
His Victory-Satisfaction-Kite
To fly.

8793

My Lord,
You have given me
A purity-heart.
Can You not bless me
With a sincerity-mind as well?

8794

Whenever I look at
My aspiration-heart,
I see the blossoming
Of a new God-dream.

8795

If we face bravely
All our problems,
Then God appears before us
With His
Sweetness-Heart-Embrace.

8796

Always vote for
The divine in you
If satisfaction
Is what you actually need.

8797

Alas,
I do not know the difference
Between my prayers and sighs.

8798

Our soul’s divinity-train stops
At three specific stations:
Love, devotion, surrender.

8799

We break God’s Heart
When we offer Him
The helpless tears
Of our sorrow-flooded hearts.

8800

Humility
Is a most powerful magnet
To draw God’s
Immediate Grace.

8801

Our implicit faith in God
Will always remain inundated
With God’s blessingful
Joy and Pride.

8802

Every morning
My heart-lotus blooms,
And every evening
My heart-lotus blossoms.
Alas, my unlit mind
Fails to recognise the bloom
And the blossom.

8803

There is no human way
That will not complicatedly bind
Our heart-breath.

8804

If you even hear
Your Master’s footfall,
You are bound to be transported
Into ecstasy-kingdom.

8805

My prayers want to enter
Into the beauty
Of the limitless skies.

8806

My meditations want to sing and dance
With the waves
Of a shoreless ocean.

8807

May my aspiration-heart
At every moment
Try to amplify my Lord’s
Nectar-Message.

8808

True, there are many ways
To please God.
My way is to consciously aspire
To become a tiny speck
Of the dust of His Feet.

8809

My soul gives to my heart
What it has:
Illumination.

8810

My heart gives to my soul
What it has:
Affection.

8811

Patience always adds
To our inner and outer
Divine capacities.

8812

How I wish my life and I
Could utilise wisely
Every God-given opportunity.

8813

It is our stupidity-mind
That makes fun of
Our purity-heart.

8814

My Lord,
When You scold me ruthlessly,
My heart feels
That You are praising
My inner potential highly.

8815

The futile frustration
Of the mind
And the baseless fears
Of the vital
Are intimate friends.

8816

Alas, why should I be sad
When people criticise me,
When I know that my Beloved Lord
Has no lack of critics?

8817

I must accomplish
In this lifetime
My God-satisfaction-mission.

8818

May my heart
Always remain famished
For spiritual, God-intoxicating
Nourishment.

8819

May my searching mind
Be a devoted
God-newness-lover.

8820

He who outwardly makes friends
With inertia
Unconsciously makes friends
With self-destruction.

8821

The human ego
Is either marked for illumination
Or for demolition.

8822

My sole task
Is to be in the company of
My soul-illumination
And to keep away from
My mind-confusion.

8823

Every day
My Lord Supreme is an ever-new
Compassion-Bestower.

8824

Alas, the moment my mind
Is not alert,
My entire being is assailed
By undivine forces.

8825

O my doubting mind,
I warn you,
You will be demoted
To nothingness-cipher
Before long.

8826

My Lord asks my heart
To sing once more
And my heart asks God
To forgive once more.

8827

God is so kind to me.
He has a very special Affection
And Concern
For my heart-land.

8828

Our inner journey
Is the beginning
Of our God-discovery.

8829

My Lord, You knew
That I was wandering
In my mind-forest.
Where was Your Concern
For me, where?

“My child,
My immediate Advice to you
Is to have a new heart,
A heart of oneness-love,
To replace your stone-heart.”

8830

God the Compassion
Self-givingly acts.

8831

God the Concern
Eagerly observes.

8832

My Lord Beloved Supreme,
Why are You
So pitifully sighing?

“My child,
Why are you deliberately forgetting
The supreme art
Of aspiration-blooming?”

8833

Who is my ego-transformer?
My ego-transformer
Is the unconditional God-lover in me.

8834

Spirituality
Empty of humility
Is no spirituality.

8835

The mind’s disobedience
Is bound to be followed
By the heart’s regret.

8836

The outer sincerity
Is a difficult task indeed.
The inner sincerity
Is infinitely more difficult.

8837

To have confidence in one’s own life
All the time
Is the mightiest obstacle.

8838

Persistent unwillingness
Will end in
A spiritual crisis.

8839

Ignorance-night is always ready
To fight against the faith
Of the seeker’s heart.

8840

Each divine thought
Paves the road
To the soul’s infinite bliss.

8841

When I meditate
Prayerfully and soulfully,
My Lord Supreme brings down
The melody of delight.

8842

May my inner life
Be blessed
With gratitude-fountain-tears.

8843

I owe everything
To my heart’s devotion-tears
And
My life’s surrender-smiles
For the fastest progress
That I have made in my spiritual life.

8844

A greatness-mind
May not find peace
At all.

8845

A goodness-heart
May not find peace
All the time.

8846

A oneness-life
Is bound to have peace,
Both in the inner world
And in the outer world,
All the time.

8847

Where does the human mind live?
It lives in
The separativity-mind-territory.

8848

The surrender of the heart
Is the nectar-drink
Of life.

8849

When my life becomes
A song of surrender,
I run faster than the fastest
With God-pleasing strides.

8850

Within,
Unwillingness-clouds.
Without,
Heavy misfortune-downpour!

8851

May my heart every day
Rise to a new aspiration
And not to a new expectation.

8852

Each time I pray to God
Soulfully,
He blesses my life
With a satisfaction-smile.

8853

May my heart at every moment cry
And champion the cause
Of God’s Victory.

8854

O my mind, rest assured,
One day you will be forced to see
The eternal sunset
Of your pride.

8855

When the heart comes
To embrace the mind,
The mind responds with
Lukewarm greetings.

8856

Ego parades
And becomes the laughing-stock
Of humanity.

8857

Humility scales
And becomes the admiration
Of humanity.

8858

Each and every aspiration-mountain
Embodies
A God-Satisfaction-nest.

8859

God’s Hope, God’s Love
And God’s Promise
Blossom only when I live peacefully
Inside my heart-temple.

8860

My Lord, do give me the capacity
Every day
To go forward with my life’s
Progress-promise-determination.

8861

May my God-aspiration
Grow into
My God-manifestation-reality.

8862

Nobody can be
A perfection-dreamer
Without being
An aspiration-lover first.

8863

O my stupidity-mind,
Why do you lament
Over your ego-loss?

8864

My mind is still undecided
About God’s
Living authenticity.

8865

Your God-longing will slowly,
Steadily and unmistakably
Illumine
All your wrongdoings.

8866

A gratitude-heart-song
Goes
A very long way.

8867

If we forget God today,
There is every likelihood
That God will forget us,
Not only tomorrow,
But the day after.

8868

A true seeker is never tired
Of hearing God’s constant
Strict Messages.

8869

If the mind becomes unruly,
How can the heart have
Even an iota of peace?

8870

Do not edit
Your soul’s messages.
They are written
By God Himself.

8871

World-doubt and world-jealousy
Enjoy living together
Inside the mind-prison.

8872

My joy knows no bounds
That my heart and my soul
Are taking turns
To illumine my doubting mind.

8873

The day I do not aspire,
I am unmistakably assailed
By unfriendly
And uncomely thoughts.

8874

Every day I confront
The expectation-army
With my soul’s adamantine will.

8875

My Lord Supreme begs me
Every day
To read at least one book
From His Compassion-flooded
Heart-Library.

8876

At every moment
We must defy and deny
Doubt-entrance
At our heart-door.

8877

My Lord does not want me
To leave anybody,
But to carry everybody with me
When I long to arrive
At His Door.

8878

My Lord tells me
That I must never, never undermine
The power of my soul’s love
For my heart.

8879

God does not want me to cry.
He does not want me to weep.
Definitely He does not want me
To wear out my heart.
He just wants me to love Him more
In His own Way.

8880

My Lord Supreme,
You say that You love me dearly.
Do prove it by smiling at me
Once a week at least!

8881

Where does my heart live?
My heart lives under the canopy
Of my soul-bird’s outstretched wings.

8882

My Lord Supreme,
May the memory
Of Your Heart-Fragrance
Cling to my gratitude-heart
Forever and forever.

8883

My Lord, may Your Smile
Be my only companion
Along Eternity’s Road.

8884

Our heart-tears
Are bound to be answered
By our Lord Himself.

8885

The beauty of the stars
Pales before the fragrance
Of God-realisation.

8886

My Lord,
Why do You not tell me
Even once
What You actually want from me?

“My child,
I need only, only, only
A self-giving life from you.”

8887

My heart’s inner peace
Has stopped
My outer desire-hunger.

8888

Appreciation
Feeds
My praise-hungry mind.

8889

Admiration
Feeds
My supremacy-hungry vital.

8890

Adoration
Feeds
My crown-throne-hungry life.

8891

Oneness
Feeds
My God-hungry heart.

8892

O my mind,
How stupid you are
That you do not take shelter
In God’s Fulness-Heart-Nest.

8893

Quickly up it goes —
The greatness
Of the mind.

8894

Suddenly down it falls —
The greatness
Of the mind.

8895

The goodness of the heart
Only goes up high, higher, highest.
It is, indeed, a one-way street.

8896

My mind, be not miserable
All the time.
Do a little bit of self-offering.
Immediately
Happiness will beckon you.

8897

You will never be able
To succeed in your outer life
And
Proceed in your inner life
If you do not dare to look
Far above your own
Earth-bound height.

8898

The Master can clear the way
For you,
Not only from time to time,
But every day.
But it is you who have to develop
The hunger
To walk, run and sprint
Along that special way.

8899

The acceptance of obedience
Is difficult
For the greatness-mind.

8900

The acceptance of obedience
Is easier than the easiest
For the goodness-heart.

8901

My Lord,
I may not be Your dearest child.
Even then, can You not show me
The shortest road?

8902

I may not have faith in God.
So what?
As long as God has faith in me,
I shall definitely be saved
And illumined.

8903

My Lord,
Do You not see that
Your Visits are so infrequent,
And what is more painful,
They are fleeting?

8904

My Lord,
I know that I love You,
But I shall never dare
To claim You.
But once I touch Your Feet,
I shall never allow You
To send me back.

8905

May my aspiration-heart
Be as sleepless and breathless
As my desire-mind is.

8906

Believe it or not,
God is afraid of
My sadness-mind.

8907

God has no fear of
My happiness-heart.
Therefore, God lives inside
My happiness-heart bravely.

8908

My heart is absolutely sure
That nothing can eclipse my heart,
As long as my heart is all gratitude
To my Lord Supreme.

8909

God is the only one
Who is always eager
To be the slave
Of my life.

8910

O my Lord of Compassion,
Do not even imagine leaving me.
If You leave me,
My soul, my heart and I
Shall immediately collapse.

8911

My Lord,
I shall keep calling You
Again and again,
Even if You do not care to answer
My Compassion-hunger-call.

8912

My Lord really loves me.
Therefore, He never fulfils
My desires and demands.

8913

My Lord,
Let us be together
And forget all our worries.
Let the worries take care of
Themselves.

8914

If our happiness
Is not mutual,
It is meaningless
And worthless.

8915

My Lord,
Your Advice always rings true
Inside my heart,
Whether I accept it or not.

8916

My Lord,
Do tell me the secret of secrets —
How my company will be enjoyed
By You.

8917

My Lord,
Do come to me if You so desire,
Not because You are bound to fulfil
My absurd demands.

8918

As a demanding seeker,
I played my role quite powerfully.
My Lord,
Now as a loving and surrendering soul,
I will be successful in my new role.

8919

When my mind does not listen
To my heart,
I become a real victim
To despair-night.

8920

An iota of God’s Concern
Can illumine my mind,
Save my heart
And
Fulfil my life.

8921

When am I a total failure?
I am a total failure
Only when I get God
On my own terms.

8922

My Lord,
Days are passing into weeks,
Weeks into months, months into years.
I have been sitting all alone
At my heart-window,
Watching for Your Arrival.

8923

My God-Arrival-expectation
Is not only destroying my sleep,
But also delaying
My God-realisation-achievement.

8924

My Lord tells me that
I deserve no explanation
Why He has banished me
From His Palace.

8925

O my mind,
How is it that I do not feel
That you have experienced
The heart of joy?

8926

When my Lord makes fun
Of my stupidity,
I immediately enjoy
His sweet torture.

8927

The worst punishment
That a seeker receives
From his Master
Is his Master’s indifference to him.

8928

The true religion
Is nothing short of
God-union.

8929

My Lord, I am lame.
Do not wait for me.
Please take those
Who have the capacity
To run the fastest to their Destination.

8930

Spiritual arrogance
Is infinitely worse
Than any other arrogance.

8931

O seeker, do not go back
To enjoy ignorance-sleep.
Our Beloved Lord
Is fast approaching you.

8932

You have gone away from God’s Feet
Foolishly,
But at least try to return
Wisely.

8933

My Lord’s
Compassion-Light-Kingdom
Is my only heart-home.

8934

Once you enter into the spiritual life,
Be careful!
You are not entitled
To while away your time.

8935

If you do not become
A non-attachment-mind,
Then your life-enlightenment
Will never take place.

8936

O seeker, do not forget
That your mind-disobedience
Is nothing short of
Your future heart-torment.

8937

A God-surrender-life
Is beyond the clasp
Of earthly tears and smiles.

8938

Those who live only in the mind
Have a tendency to thwart
The progress of others.

8939

Non-attachment
Is the beauty and divinity
Of enlightenment.

8940

The inner divinity
Cannot come to the fore
If you are always engrossed
In the externals.

8941

Mine is a God-surrender-breath
To please God at every moment
In His own Way.

8942

The heart of a true seeker
Enjoys the tears
Of purest joy.

8943

My Lord,
I need Your constant help.
Do carry me everywhere
In Your Arms.

8944

As long as my Lord Supreme
Cares for me,
What does it matter
If I fall again and again?

8945

A divine friend
Is the choicest joy
Of humankind.

8946

I do not want to be
A God-Satisfaction-seeker
By halves.

8947

My Lord,
Keep away from me
My power, my fame,
If You want me to feel
That You truly love me.

8948

Man will evolve higher
Not by the mind’s courage,
But by the heart’s spontaneous
Love for God.

8949

Only when my soul sings
God’s Victory-Song
Am I entitled
To clasp His Feet.

8950

Eventually we shall all arrive
At the altar
Of perfect perfection.

8951

My all-loving heart
Has tremendous confidence
In my mind’s eventual God-search.

8952

The Master never withdraws,
Although
It may appear so.

8953

The judgement-seat
Rarely embodies
Happiness-smile.

8954

Nature’s transformation
If you want,
Then enter the field of service.

8955

If you are not going to face
Your anxieties and worries,
Then how are you going
To overcome them?

8956

Always try to be with
Your God-lover-friends.
They are the ones
Who will inspire you
And encourage you
To run the fastest.

8957

A true disciple knows
At whose feet
Will be his journey’s start
And his journey’s close.

8958

The promise of a truth-seeker
May not be fulfilled
All the time.

8959

The promise of a God-lover
God Himself
Fulfils.

8960

Your receptivity will tell you
How far you can go,
How high you can go,
How deep you can go.

8961

Liberation from expectation
Is satisfaction
Unsurpassable.

8962

God’s Hour is
God’s Blessing-Delight
And
Man’s surprise-height.

8963

A true God-lover
Is made by God Himself
A fear-conqueror.

8964

Our earthly plane
Definitely has a special purpose
In the process of evolution.

8965

If you do not want to please
God the finite,
How are you going to please
God the Infinite?
Impossible!

8966

The expansion of the heart
In itself
Is supreme satisfaction.

8967

Because the mind
Is bound by reason,
The mind is always wanting
In newness-fulness-smiles.

8968

A oneness-heart
Is perfectly synonymous
With a satisfaction-life.

8969

The separation of two lives
Is
An unfinished story.

8970

When I live inside
My mind-jungle,
I think that my Lord
Is eternally old.

8971

When I live inside
My heart-garden,
I feel that my Beloved
Is eternally new.

8972

An aspiration-life
Means
A life of desire-emptiness.

8973

Limited,
Extremely limited,
Our God-rejecting
And man-doubting mind.

8974

Unlimited,
Extremely unlimited,
Our God-loving, mind-serving
And man-caring heart.

8975

The beauty and fragrance
Of silence
Are always attracted
By the Divinity of God Himself.

8976

Not your heart but your head
You have to bow
To your Absolute Lord Supreme,
If you ever want to discover Him.

8977

Loving may not be
A slow process,
But surrendering definitely is.

8978

God does not hide
When my heart lives
In the world of happiness.

8979

God definitely hides
When I swim
In the sea of sorrows.

8980

Wherever I go,
I see the same face of space
And the same heart of time.

8981

Unless and until
Silence captures my mind,
I shall never have
Satisfaction-delight.

8982

My goal is not
The beauty of the finite,
Never!

8983

My goal is
The fragrance of the Infinite,
Ever!

8984

In the silence-mind,
Everything can be achieved
Faster than the fastest.

8985

My world-oneness-heart
Is a perfect stranger
To loneliness.

8986

Simplicity
Is a successful beginning
Of a spiritual journey.

8987

If you cannot control your mind,
Then you are not the lord
Of anything.

8988

What I really need
Is a burning aspiration
To be in the Presence
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme.

8989

I call it
My inner hunger.
God calls it
His Ecstasy-Thrill.

8990

Our present needs
Are our future
God-blossoming deeds.

8991

Time
Is of paramount importance
In every sphere of life.

8992

At long last
I have come to realise
That God for God’s sake
Is the only satisfaction.

8993

God blesses me
With His proudest Smile
When I soar towards Him
On the wings of my love.

8994

Identification
With one’s own inner divinity
Is a supreme secret
For a seeker to multiply
His inner progress and outer success.

8995

O my mind,
Trust the inner boat,
Trust the Inner Pilot,
Trust the inner journey.
They all will satisfy you.
None of them will fail you.

8996

Sleeplessly I remember
My Lord’s blessingful Smile
And
His encouraging Eye.

8997

When we encourage others
With no personal motives,
We raise high, very high,
Humanity’s progress-standard.

8998

It is the supreme duty
Of each and every human being
To surround himself
With God-Compassion,
God-Protection
And
God-Satisfaction.

8999

Since all tasks come from God,
We must offer the results
Only to God
And to nobody else.

9000

To express gratitude
At every moment
Is to have a short cut
To arrive at God’s
Heart-Palace.
