```

My mind

Has an urgent message

For God:

From now on,

My mind will listen

To my heart. ```

3

```

To attend Heaven-school,

The seeker must get

A compassion-certificate

From Mother Earth. ```

4

```

My heart has discovered

That God, my Lord,

Is

An ever-transcending Newness. ```

5

```

Meditation

Does not believe in

Man-delivered information.

```

6

```

Meditation means

The beauty and fragrance

Of the fast-revealing illumination.

```

7

```

The joys

Of the Heaven-Kingdom

I have.

```

8

```

The sorrows

Of the earth-planet

I am.

```

9

```

Mine is a God-gratitude-song

That is perpetually sung

By my heart.

```

10

```

Unity

Begins the Cosmic Game,

Multiplicity

Continues the Game,

And this Game never ends.

```

```

Two things are infinite:

My mind’s ignorance-night

And

My heart’s God-delight.

```

```

Two things are eternal:

My crying heart

And

God’s smiling Eye. ```

13

```

Two things are immortal:

God’s Vision

And

God’s Compassion. ```

14

```

Success is

Action-pride. ```

15

```

Progress is

An ever-transcending

Destination.

```

16

```

Success is

Capacity-supremacy. ```

17

```

Progress is

Heart-ecstasy. ```

18

```

Pray

Like a child. ```

19

```

Meditate

Like a yogi. ```

When God cries,

I remember immediately

All my mistakes.

```

21

```

When God smiles,

I forget

All my good deeds

And bad deeds. ```

22

```

Inch by inch,

Minute by minute,

I shall try to dive into

My Lord’s fathomless Heart. ```

23

```

When God hears

That I am on His side,

I please Him

More than anything else —

So says God.

```

24

```

When God walks

Among us,

Our hearts become

Infinity’s Fragrance. ```

25

```

When God the Beauty

Blessingfully enters into

My eyes,

My entire being becomes

Not only beautiful,

But also blissful. ```

26

```

If we try to please humanity,

Even in a thousand ways,

We sadly fail.

```

27

```

When we try to please God,

Even in a single way,

We please Him

Sooner than at once. ```

28

```

My heart of silence

Is full of

God-Messages.

```

29

```

To go a little higher

Is to see God a little better

And be a little closer.

```

30

```

My Lord Supreme sings and sings

The glories of my willingness-mind

And eagerness-heart.

```

314

```

My mind desires

Independence-pride.

```

```

My heart desires

God-dependence-peace. ```

33

```

I desire

God-satisfaction-delight. ```

34

```

My humility

Is the secret

Of my God-closeness.

```

35

```

My life and I

Shall be simpler and simpler

Every single day

To please our Lord Supreme. ```

36

```

My heart and I

Shall be sweeter and sweeter

Every single day

To please our Lord Supreme. ```

37

```

My Lord and I

Shall be dearer and dearer

Every single day

To perform our respective tasks. ```

38

```

My Lord tells me

That my God-gratitude-heart-tears

And my God-gratitude-heart-smiles

Are His strong, stronger and strongest

Hero-warriors.

```

39

```

My Lord Supreme has asked

My aspiration-heart-flames

To buy only a one-way ticket

To His Heart-Home. ```

40

```

My Beloved Supreme tells me

That as long as He can claim my heart

As His personal property,

He does not have to worry

About my life.

```

```

My Heaven

Is my ever-blossoming

God-gratitude-heart.

```

42

```

If you do not love your soul dearly,

Your life is bound to be estranged

From your bountiful soul.

```

43

```

No human being is fated

To live in stark ignorance-night

Forever.

```

44

```

O ignorance-night,

No matter how powerful you are,

You will not be able to uproot

My aspiration-heart-tree. ```

45

```

The mind

Asks questions.

The heart

Immediately answers. ```

46

```

The heart

Asks questions.

The mind

Speedily disappears. ```

47

```

The disobedience-mind

Was summarily punished

By God Himself.

```

48

```

My mind sleeps and sleeps,

Endlessly sleeps. ```

49

```

My heart keeps awake

To hear the pindrop-silence-arrival

Of my Lord Supreme.

```

506

```

When God asks me my name,

I tell Him that my name is

God-gratitude-heart-fragrance.

God blesses me

With an unending Smile.

```

51

```

A God-cry

Reaches

A new horizon.

```

52

```

No aspiring heart

Should ever allow the invasion

Of the doubting mind.

```

53

```

Our love of our Master

Inspires our Master immensely

Plus immeasurably.

```

54

```

The soul-music

Can easily silence

The mind-turbulence.

```

55

```

For the fulfilment of the divine actions

In our outer life,

Inner poise is of paramount importance.

```

56

```

Our surrender-lives

Are the perfect manifestations

Of our Master’s

Earth-transformation-promises. ```

57

```

My Master

Is my most sincere

Happiness-beggar.

```

58

```

God’s burning Flame-Tears

My mind forgets

Sooner than at once,

But my heart —

Never, never, never!

```

59

```

Every day

God invites and welcomes

My gratitude-heart

With open Arms

And soul-stirring Smiles.

```

60

```

God is the real Lover

Of my constantly new start

To arrive at new horizons.

```

617

```

The outer beauty

Gladdens

The human in us.

```

APR 2234. These prayers were given in Yogyakarta, Indonesia — 27 December 2003.↩

62

```

The inner beauty

Awakens

The divine in us

To the Heights of the Absolute. ```

63

```

May my life be untiringly

The singing glow

And the dancing flow

Of my heart. ```

64

```

Alas,

We do not care

For our inner light to illumine us,

But we care

For the outer light

That puzzles and dazzles us. ```

65

```

The divine seeker

Hungers only

For the timeless Dream of God.

```

66

```

The Cosmic Game

Does not break anything.

It only builds everything.

```

67

```

The mind-cave

Is empty of light. ```

68

```

The heart-cottage

Is inundated

With silence and peace.

```

69

```

The loud sound

Of the earth

I love.

```

70

```

The silver silence

Of Heaven

I need.

```

71

```

My heart desires to be

The lover and worshipper

Of God

The ever-transcending Dreamer. ```

72

```

My Lord,

Do You think

I will always be able

To love You?

“My child,

Do you think

I will ever be able

To forget you?” ```

73

```

My Lord,

Do You think

I will ever be able

To fulfil You? ```

74

```

“My child,

You can and you shall

Fulfil Me,

Because I am the secret Doer

And you are the outer enjoyer.”

```
