From the mind’s prison

```

Hesitation, doubt and fear

Leave me

Only when I stay

On the God-navigated course. ```

3

```

Like my Lord Beloved Supreme,

I also must take

A full-time service:

Loving unreservedly

And unconditionally

Each and every human being. ```

4

```

My meditation-depth

Is my Lord’s

Ecstasy-Height-Pride.

```

5

My Lord’s

Compassion-Concern-Heart-Door

Never has any lock.

Our mind-maladies

Can be cured

Only by repeating constantly

God’s sacred Name. ```

```

Morning devotion-singers

Give tremendous joy

To their Lord Supreme.

```

8

```

Music of the heart-tears

And heart-smiles

Is bound to thrill

All sincere seekers of the world. ```

Every morning

I pray to my Lord Supreme

To bless me

With a rainbow-heart-beauty-smile. ```

10

Just yesterday

My Lord Beloved Supreme scolded me

Most powerfully.

He said, “My child,

You must take My express Permission

Before you do something

Or say something important.”

When I give God

More than I promised,

He gives me

Seven transcendental Smiles.

```

Dreams come true

Only if we dearly love them

And proudly treasure them.

```

```

Humanity is not interested

In the light.

It is interested only

In the power-supremacy. ```

14

```

My acceptance of spirituality

Is neither my obligation

Nor my responsibility,

But a golden opportunity

To love God and be loved by God.

```

15

```

Life has no dead end.

Life carries the promise

Of endless progress-delight.

```

16

```

When my mind is happy,

Everything is pure.

When my heart is happy,

Everything is perfect

And everybody is perfect.

When I am happy,

My Lord Supreme

Immediately embraces me. ```

```

My Lord, may I offer You

A true story?

“No!”

My Lord, may I offer You

A beautiful poem?

“No!”

My Lord, may I offer You

A soulful song?

“No!”

My Lord, may I offer You

My gratitude-heart-tears?

“Yes, yes, yes!

My child, start offering.”

```

The songs of my voice

Are pure and sweet.

The songs of my heart

Can touch God’s Feet.

```

The self-mastery-education

Nobody can ever complete. ```

20

```

To pay even the slightest attention

To my insecurity-life

Is the height of my stupidity.

```

21

```

I always approach

My Lord Beloved Supreme

On my bended knees

And not just with my folded hands. ```

22

```

Every morning

I place my sincerity-heart-tears

And my sincerity-heart-smiles

At the Feet of my Lord Supreme

Before I enter into my meditation.

```

23

```

My Lord Beloved Supreme Himself

Uses

My God-devotion-heart-magnet.

```

24

```

My constant God-dependence

Is the safest and surest

God-discovery-road.

```

25

```

My God-aspiration-questions

And answers of the past

Are of no avail.

My God-aspiration-questions

And answers of the future

Are simply ridiculous.

My God-aspiration-questions

And answers of my present life

Are of supreme importance.

My Lord,

My only prayer to You

Is this:

Do continue to remain

Fully in charge of my life.

And each happy feeling

Gives me the strength

Of a roaring lion. ```

Delight

Is bound to permeate

A God-surrender-heart.

Spirituality alone succeeds

In giving the God-seekers

A God-oneness-home.

Supremely brave!

Do not surrender

To despair. ```

Kneeling prayers

Receive immediately

Illumining Smiles

From God’s Eye. ```

Every morning

I memorise four soul-stirring

And heart-elevating Messages

From my Lord Supreme. ```

The beauty of my heart

And

The fragrance of my soul. ```

Blessingfully gives me.

That my God-gratitude-heart

Is my promise-fulfilled life.

That the surrender of my mind

Is His prized possession.

And unerringly opens

My heart-door

And keeps it open. ```

The Golden Age has decided

Not to sleep any more.

It is about to wake up

To illumine the world

Once again.

Falsehood

Is sensation.

Truth

Is compassion. ```

```

Falsehood

Is fearless.

Truth

Is deathless. ```

43

```

Falsehood

Ultimately fails.

Truth

Sleeplessly sails. ```

44

```

Falsehood

Attracts.

Truth

Rejects. ```

My Lord Supreme Himself

Proudly hoists

My obedience-flag.

Inside the silence

To fly and fly

In His Infinity’s Sky. ```

With my feeble weakness-body. ```

With my strong, bold and wild

Disobedience-vital.

Do not torture us

And our Lord Beloved Supreme.

Why?

Because they have been asked

By my Lord Beloved Supreme.

With God,

But my feeling cannot.

I receive a very powerful Embrace

From my Lord Supreme.

Life is a golden opportunity.

The sooner we realise it,

The better.
