23 September 1980

My sweet Supreme, I wanted to bind Your Power with my desire-life.

I failed.

My sweeter Supreme, I wanted to bind Your Peace with my aspiration-life.

I failed.

My sweetest Supreme, I wanted to bind Your Bliss with my dedication-life.

I failed.

My sweet, sweeter and sweetest Supreme, I wanted to bind Your Love with my surrender-life.

I failed.

Please tell me why I failed each and every time. Why, my sweet, sweeter and sweetest Supreme?

“My sweet child, My sweeter child, My sweetest child, you failed because you wanted to bind My possessions. You will succeed if you want to bind Me, and not My possessions.”

My sweet, sweeter and sweetest Lord Supreme, then tell me what You are.

“My sweet child, My sweeter child, My sweetest child,

I am My Infinity’s Compassion for you,

I am My Eternity’s Concern for you, and

I am My Immortality’s Love for you.

“If you can bind Me, then you are bound to bind My possessions. But if you want to bind only My possessions, you will never be able to bind them, and, at the same time, I shall always remain far, far, far, infinitely far away from you.

“Possess Me, claim Me and own Me with your oneness-light and oneness-height. Lo and behold, all My possessions immediately become all yours.”
