The God of the mind

1.

```

The God

Of the mind

Has a very short life.

```

2.

```

The love of the mind

Fails to reach

The supreme Destination.

```

3.

```

A real God-lover

Does not have to borrow

Anything

From yesterday and tomorrow. ```

4.

```

Each

Breathing moment

Is

A miracle. ```

5.

```

Divine feelings

Are

Supreme realities.

```

6.

```

In your inner life

Never

Be sparing in crying.

In your outer life

Never

Be sparing in smiling.

```

7.

```

I am determined

To make God extremely

FAMOUS

Here on earth. ```

8.

```

Each

Aspiration-flame

Is

A God-representative. ```

9.

```

Patience

Is at once

God and man's

Sacred victory-secret. ```

10.

```

Forgiveness

Means transformation

Of a human heart

Into a divine life. ```

11.

```

May my life

Every morning grow into

A new

Flower-fragrance-prayer. ```

12.

```

Today

I am not alone.

The fragrance of my

Heart-flower-garden

Will stay with me.

```

13.

```

Uniqueness I see in others.

That means

God has already blessed me

With His Fulness. ```

14.

```

Doubt openly blows out

The candle of the mind.

Impurity secretly blows out

The lamp of the heart. ```

15.

```

God's inner Message to me:

Self-transcendence.

God's outer Message to me:

Heart-vigilance. ```

16.

```

Do not

Blame the world.

Find

A solution. ```

17.

```

Today

I am determined

To give space

To the unloved ones. ```

18.

```

Make

Healthy choices.

Perfection

Will be yours. ```

19.

```

God's

Protection appears unseen.

We see it

Only when it disappears. ```

20.

```

Surprise God!

Breathlessly tell Him

That you love Him

Only, only, only. ```

21.

```

Receptivity-inability

Is a universal

Experience-disease.

```

22.

```

Perfect happiness is

Enthusiasm minus

Expectation.

```

23.

```

God tells me

That He likes to remain

Permanently

The Landlord of my heart-house. ```

24.

```

How long do you want

To keep your heart-book

Out of print?

How long? ```

25.

```

A true peace-lover

Feels that he can

Never be overworked.

```

26.

```

A purity-heart

Is always a champion

Of universal oneness-delight.

```

27.

```

I have two teachers.

My heart-teacher teaches me

Reliance.

My mind-teacher teaches me

Defiance.

```

28.

```

Humanity's

Real and only poverty:

Unwillingness.

```

29.

```

Every morning and every evening

God gives me the same

Advice:

Never leave your heart unguarded. ```

30.

```

Is there any human being

Who is not the embodiment

Of opposing realities?

```

31.

```

Now, this very moment,

Is the best time

For me to retire

From ignorance-army. ```

32.

```

My Lord, my Lord,

I beg of You

Not to allow my unworthiness

To lead me astray. ```

33.

```

If you allow your mind to be

Paralysed by uncertainty,

Then your heart will automatically

Be paralysed by unwillingness. ```

34.

```

Self-giving means

The unmasking of the

Golden Face of the future.

```

35.

```

Who is the real loser?

He who enjoys

The superiority-inferiority-game.

```

36.

```

Oneness-bravery

Means

Freedom from self-slavery.

```

37.

```

My eyes weep tears

Only when my heart enjoys

Ecstasy's flood.

```

38.

```

God is desperately looking for you

To get from you

A copy of your heart-key.

```

39.

```

It is impossible to believe

That you never get any call

From Above

On your aspiration-line. ```

40.

```

Is there any human being

Who does not enjoy

The flickering of optimism-lamp?

```

41.

```

There are only three roads

That do not have speed limits:

Heart's aspiration-road,

Life's dedication-road and

God's Satisfaction-Road.

```

42.

```

A gratitude-heart

Can smilingly illumine

A doubting mind.

```

43.

```

Who serves the server?

God the Satisfaction Infinite. ```

44.

```

God's Compassion-Eye

Cries and cries

When I count my defeats

On the battlefield of life. ```

45.

```

Unconditionally you love God.

That means you never allow

Your aspiration to take a break.

```

46.

```

A God-seeker

Can never retire. ```

47.

```

Your sterling faith in God

Can easily brave

Numberless buffets.

```

48.

```

The mind cannot speak to God.

But it can overhear

When God and the heart talk.

```

49.

```

My morning aspiration

Is my best

Heart-satisfaction-song.

```

50.

```

God

Wants every human being

To pass the heart-fitness test.

```

51.

```

First

Be an illumined individual;

Then you can become

The creator of a fulfilled world. ```

52.

```

Love God sleeplessly.

He will grant you your heart's

Rainbow-choices.

```

53.

```

God

Is supremely proud of you,

Because you have tamed

Your earthquake-emotion-life. ```

54.

```

I cannot believe that

You do not have the number

Of our Beloved Supreme

In your heart-directory. ```

55.

```

What I call a pure thought,

God calls it His Heart's

Flower-Smile-Song.

```

56.

```

O God-lover,

How can you dare to imagine

A pain-flooded future?

```

57.

```

On principle,

I never allow my mind

Even to touch

My soul's throne. ```

58.

```

God's

Compassion-Eye

Pays

All my ignorance-bills. ```
