My God-Hunger-Dreams

1.

```

God

Needs a special assistant.

My heart's budding gratitude

Is applying for the post. ```

2.

```

God

Needs a perfect partner.

My life's blossoming surrender

Is applying for the post. ```

3.

```

You cannot change your mind,

Then change the subject.

Try

A new subject:

God-Realisation. ```

4.

```

No God,

No God.

Openly and proudly

He says.

God lives.

God is.

Secretly and sacredly

He feels. ```

5.

```

Go forward,

If your aspiration-heart

Is pure.

Go backward,

If your suspicion-mind

Is impure. ```

6.

```

God the Justice

Unconditionally

Surrenders to

God the Compassion

Almost

ALWAYS. ```

7.

```

Can we not adore

God's Forgiveness-Feet

Exactly

The same way He admires

Our sincerity-hearts?

```

8.

```

Deception

Is not something

New to the mind.

Aspiration

Is not something

New to the heart.

Illumination

Is not something

New to the soul.

Compassion

Is not something

New to the God. ```

9.

```

To buy one single

Satisfaction-smile from my heart

God is ready to spend

His astronomical

Compassion-Tears.

```

10.

```

Who

Cared for me?

God the Forgiveness-Heart.

Who

Cares for me?

God the Compassion-Eye.

Who

Will care for me?

God the Transformation-Hand.

```

11.

```

Jesus,

Do show me

The God-seeker

Who is crying for You.

Christ,

Do show me

The God-lover

Who is smiling at You. ```

12.

```

What

Have I to call my own

Since

I have disowned

God's Compassion-Eye

And

His Forgiveness-Heart?

```

13.

```

My Lord,

May I borrow Your Vision-Eye?

My child,

I am not in the habit of

Lending anything to anyone.

But

You can have My Vision-Eye

Permanently

For the asking.

```

14.

```

Aspiration-life

Is still alive

Because

Every morning and

Every evening it bathes

In my Lord's

Compassion-Forgiveness-Sea. ```

15.

```

The mind calls Him

"Absolute Supreme."

The heart calls Him

"Oneness-Fulness-Love." ```

16.

```

Confidence-explorers

Are destined to be

Promise-fulfillers.

```

17.

```

You can love your

Today's newness-dawn,

Then

God will grant you

His Tomorrow's

Fulness-Day.

```

18.

```

God

Does not want your mind

To enjoy any more

Hesitation-hobby.

God

Does not want your vital

To loiter any more

In your aspiration-heart-lobby. ```

19.

```

A God-realised soul

Is a service-searchlight

Of God's Dream-Manifestation-Reality.

```

20.

```

I shall

NEVER NEVER

FORGIVE

My unforgiving mind. ```

21.

```

Your road

Is an unending series

Of red lights

Precisely because

You do not care for

The green lights'

Welcome-heart.

```

22.

```

Man asks God

Every day

One question:

"Why is life so hard?"

God answers the question

With His Infinite Compassion-Heart.

Alas!

The acceptance

Of God's Answer-Light

Is not in the very nature

Of man.

```

23.

```

A self-seeking man

Unconsciously

Makes friends with

Eternity's

Frustration-clown-frowns.

```

24.

```

Love of purity's call

Is the Headmaster

Of my heart-school. ```

25.

```

Man

Is his long-promised

Surrender-flame.

God

Is His long-promised

Satisfaction-Sun. ```

26.

```

What

I have for myself

Is a self-smitten mind.

What

God has for me

Is His Divinity-flooded Heart. ```

27.

```

Morning

Is the time when I become

The Heaven-ascent-resolution.

Evening

Is the time when my

Surrender-life becomes

The God-Descent-Solution.

```

28.

```

The aspiration-heart

Has always room

For one more creation of God.

The doubting mind

Has no room even for God.

NEVER. ```

29.

```

How

Do you tell me that you have

Nothing to do?

Have

You taught your mind

Its departure-song?

Have

You taught your heart

Its arrival-dance?

```

30.

```

God

Is equally proud of my outer mind's

Disappearance-jungle

And

My inner heart's

Appearance-garden. ```

31.

```

My Lord

Does not want

My surrender-life

From my suffering heart-tears.

My Lord

Wants my surrender-life

From my flying heart-smiles.

```

32.

```

If you are doing

The right thing

God is not going

To ask you

When you started it

And

When you are going

To end it.

He is all happiness

In what you are doing. ```

33.

```

Just to dream

Of the Ultimate Goal,

The God-seeker has to be

An exceptionally brave soul. ```

34.

```

Without God's

Compassion-Approval,

My self-reliance

Is a most expensive joke. ```

35.

```

The aspiration-flames

Of a God-seeker

Are God's own

Future-Capacity-Fulfilment-Dreams. ```

36.

```

You

Are not indispensable.

Just believe it.

Lo, your mind is flooded

With peace.

```

37.

```

Be not an ascetic.

At the end of your journey's close,

Even God the constant Satisfaction

Will not be able

To recognise you.

```

38.

```

When I concentrate,

I concentrate on my

Perfection only.

When I meditate,

I meditate on God's

Satisfaction only. ```

39.

```

Direct knowledge-light

I want.

Interpretation is

Interruption. ```

40.

```

The more my outer mind-dog

Barks,

The more my inner God-Lion

Sleeps. ```

41.

```

God wants from me

Only one thing:

My constant concern

For His Compassion-Liberation-Boat. ```

42.

```

Your mind wants to be

A world-destroyer.

Do you know what God wants

From your mind?

He wants your mind to be

A peace-pioneer. ```

43.

```

My mind

Has given me its peerless wealth:

Inspiration-Dawn.

My heart

Has given me its peerless wealth:

Aspiration-day.

My soul

Has given me its peerless wealth:

Realisation-Sun.

```

44.

```

Only when

Your mind becomes

A God-dreamer,

You can have peace.

Only when

Your heart becomes

A God-lover,

You can have perfection. ```

45.

```

May my mind become

A fast-running aspiration-river.

May my heart become

A fast-increasing realisation-sea.

May my soul become

A fast-blossoming perfection-shore. ```

46.

```

You want to cash in

God's Love-Check,

Then

You must go to

His Compassion-Bank. ```

47.

```

What

Is hesitation,

If not a thorn

In your

God-Promise-Garden?

```

48.

```

True,

God is His Eternity's

Patience-Light.

But He wants me to have

His own Infinity

Sooner than at once. ```

49.

```

You forget

To feed your aspiration-flames,

Then

God will forget

To read your life-book. ```

50.

```

God trusts me.

Therefore He has put

His Divine Life

In my human hands.

Can I not likewise trust God

And put my human life

In His Divine Hands?

```

51.

```

I want to ring

God's Delight-Bell,

Then I must live

Inside my life's

Gratitude-breath. ```

52.

```

God's Compassion

And

My life's perfection

Someday, somewhere, somehow

Are bound to meet.

```

53.

```

Let us cry together.

God will soon come.

Let us smile together.

Lo, God has just arrived. ```

54.

```

God

Is not a Visitor

Of my fearful sleep.

God

Is an Admirer

Of my soulful dreams. ```

55.

```

My Lord Supreme,

My soul-reality's All,

Countless times

I have withdrawn from You.

I have withdrawn

My promise-oneness.

I have withdrawn

My willingness-oneness.

I have withdrawn

My soulfulness-oneness.

I have withdrawn

My surrender-oneness-bliss.

Still You have not

Withdrawn from me.

You remain

Your Eternity's Compassion-Eye.

You remain

Your Infinity's Forgiveness-Heart.

You remain

Your Immortality's Vision-Fulfilment-Cry. ```
