Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees, part 37

36001

```

My Lord may not be

In my dreams,

But I am always

In His Dreams. ```

36002

```

There is no such thing as duty

In the spiritual world —

It is all privilege.

```

36003

```

To say that I discovered my Master

Is a complete lie.

To say that my Master discovered me

While I was enjoying ignorance-sleep

Is absolutely the right thing.

```

36004

```

Think not of those

Who are not with us,

But think only of those

Who are with us, in us

And for us.

```

36005

```

O seeker,

Nothing can save you

Save and except

Your own total God-surrender-life. ```

36006

```

I am so grateful to God —

He keeps me always

In all His Activities.

```

36007

```

Jealousy means

A life of bankruptcy. ```

36008

```

Doubt means

Self-torture. ```

36009

```

Suspicion means

The beginning of

Self-destruction.

```

36010

```

Anxiety means

God-separativity-consciousness. ```

36011

```

Fear means

The absence of

God-oneness-love.

```

36012

```

Confidence means

Support of

God’s Will.

```

36013

```

Pride means

Superiority-lover. ```

36014

```

Faith means

The complete extinction of

Self-doubt.

```

36015

```

Life means

The tyranny of

The continuation of desire.

```

36016

```

Do not allow self-doubt

To destroy your life

Even in an unguarded moment.

```

36017

```

The outer man

Promises and promises. ```

36018

```

The inner man

Enjoys God’s supernal Beauty

All the time.

```

36019

```

Wild curiosity

Delays our spiritual progress

Indefinitely.

```

36020

```

We can love God,

But we can never

Deserve God.

```

36021

```

Book-knowledge

Speaks about God

At random.

```

36022

```

Wisdom

Is the only thing

That can help us.

```

36023

```

God is everywhere.

God’s Heart is for everybody.

God’s Life is for the four corners

Of the globe. ```

36024

```

Uncertainty

In every aspect of human life

Reigns supreme.

```

36025

```

The choice of perfection

Eventually becomes

The voice

Of absolute Perfection. ```

36026

```

To increase aspiration,

My love of God must increase

Sooner than at once.

```

36027

```

Disobedience-blunders

Are bound to be multiplied

Unless God’s Compassion-Eye

Nullifies everything. ```

36028

```

My meditation-life

My Lord’s Heart-Delight.

```

36029

```

God begs

Each and every human being

Not only to smile at Him,

But also to smile with Him. ```

36030

```

Alas, if we cannot satisfy God

In His own Way,

We can at least try to decrease

The number of our desires. ```

36031

```

Meditation is perfect

Only when the seeker

Feels God’s Presence

Inside his heart. ```

36032

```

Always try to keep

The problem-maker-mind

Right in front of God’s Eye.

```

36033

```

If you really want to talk about God,

Then it has to be directly

From your heart

And not from your mouth. ```

36034

```

I see darkness-night everywhere

Because I follow the commands

Of desire.

```

36035

```

The mind thinks it has

Tremendous wisdom. ```

36036

```

The heart wants the mind

To listen

Only to God.

```

36037

```

God’s first Lesson

For mankind:

Do not surrender

To impossibility. ```

36038

```

I give God the opportunity

To laugh

When I say that I surpass Him

In wisdom-light. ```

36039

```

God is not fond

Of taking lazy holidays

Two or three times a year!

```

36040

```

God’s Eye

Sees our needs. ```

36041

```

God’s Heart

Fulfils our needs. ```

36042

```

When the mind thinks

That God is kind,

It is, indeed,

A hopeful beginning. ```

36043

```

Not God’s Presence

But God’s Absence

Makes a great difference

In my life. ```

36044

```

God enjoys postponing

His meetings

With the mind.

```

36045

```

God wants His Eye

To turn

In my direction.

```

36046

```

To love God sincerely

Is to have a true eagerness

For God-closeness.

```

36047

```

The inner world

Tells me:

Be careful!

```

36048

```

God’s Heart-World

Tells me:

Be soulful and fruitful.

```

36049

```

Man’s alarm clock says:

“You do not have

To take me seriously.”

```

36050

```

God’s alarm clock says:

“Get up! Run!

It is already too late!”

```

36051

```

Alas, my life

Is caught ruthlessly

By bondage-chains.

```

36052

```

Negativity

Is worse than

Mud, dirt and clay.

```

36053

```

Unsolicited advice

Is available

Infinitely more than it is needed

In the present world. ```

36054

```

I wish to offer

My life-long service

To my Lord Supreme.

```

36055

```

God-manifestation

Depends on

The seeker’s enthusiasm

And eagerness. ```

36056

```

Expectation

Is man’s first choice. ```

36057

```

Regularity is good,

But punctuality

Is infinitely better.

```

36058

```

Silence can easily

Challenge and conquer

The pride of sound.

```

36059

```

Sleep-lovers

Cannot be

True God-lovers.

```

36060

```

I must go far beyond

The boundaries

Of the limitation-mind.

```

36061

```

I am consumed with the desire

To love God’s inner Heart

And serve God’s outer Life.

```

36062

```

A true friend can be found

Only in Heaven

And not on earth.

```

36063

```

The sadness of failure

And the gladness of success

Cannot bind a true seeker.

```

36064

```

My Lord,

Can You not remain

My heart-beauty-dream

Forever? ```

36065

```

Doubt is apt

To drown me. ```

36066

```

Faith helps me fly

In vastness-sky. ```

36067

```

The outer sound

Can never be as powerful

As the inner silence.

```

36068

```

A constant desire-life

Is bound to dance on the very edge

Of self-destruction.

```

36069

```

My Lord tells me

That He keeps Himself

Always available for me.

I do not have to knock

At His Heart-Door.

```

36070

```

Just because

I am a stark fool myself,

I try to fool my Lord Supreme.

```

36071

```

Hope shattered today,

Tomorrow miraculously revives. ```

36072

```

May the light of hope

Once more energise me. ```

36073

```

Forgiveness and happiness

Shall forever remain

Inseparable.

```

36074

```

God speaks.

Alas, there are

No listening ears!

```

36075

```

Humility is the height

Of inner strength. ```

36076

```

God’s Forgiveness-Sea

Is always there

For me to dive into.

```

36077

```

It was not long ago

That God and I

Danced and dined

Together. ```

36078

```

I must be one-pointed

In everything that I do. ```

36079

```

Every day

My mind tortures my poor heart

Unnecessarily.

```

36080

```

Each aspiring heart

Must always be ready

To explore

The inner space. ```

36081

```

Finally

I have cast aside

My ego-pride.

```

36082

```

My Lord, I would like to be

Your eternal slave.

“No, My child,

I would like you to be

Exactly like Me.”

```

36083

```

To my great sorrow,

Humanity’s mind

Is doubt-drowned.

```

36084

```

My Lord, I am all eagerness today

To dive deep within

And discover Your Heart-Garden.

```

36085

```

To expedite our realisation-hour,

What we need

Is an unconditional surrender-life.

```

36086

```

I want my ego

To starve to death.

I really do!

```

36087

```

Serve God,

Be happy,

Remain happy.

Do not mind who gets the credit! ```

36088

```

If I do not love myself

In a divine way,

Then my spiritual life

Will be a total failure. ```

36089

```

Alas, the human mind

Enjoys complaints and criticisms

More than anything else.

```

36090

```

Aspiration-tears

Are not only beautiful

But also sweet.

```

36091

```

Self-control

Is of paramount importance

To see the Face

And feel the Heart

Of God.

```

36092

```

Nobody can be a real failure

In life.

We only think so.

```

36093

```

God’s Whisper-Messages

My heart and I treasure. ```

36094

```

How long do you want

To keep God on your side,

O stark fool?

```

36095

```

Each man is a miracle of miracles.

Our souls know it.

Our hearts and our minds

Also will one day realise it. ```

36096

```

I shall sing and play

At a place where the mind

Can never see.

```

36097

```

From now on,

I shall not allow my mind

To follow me

Or imitate me. ```

36098

```

First achieve mastery

Over your own life —

Then only can you be

A world-transforming hero. ```

36099

```

Alas, in the space of one weak moment,

One can lose the inner wealth

That one has acquired

After hard spiritual discipline. ```

36100

```

Temptation,

Your face is too ugly.

I do not want to look at you!

```

36101

```

If you want your aspiration

To succeed,

Then do not allow despair

To breathe —

Not only within you,

But around you. ```

36102

```

Nothing can be more beautiful,

Nothing can be more meaningful,

Nothing can be more fruitful

Than God’s Forgiveness. ```

36103

```

God tells us

That our tears

Are His most valuable Treasures.

```

36104

```

There are so many ways

That God uses to speak to us —

Alas, even then,

We do not understand Him! ```

36105

```

All I need is a severe scolding

From my Lord Supreme

To wake up and dive deep within

To see my all-illumining inner sun. ```

36106

```

Infinity’s shoreless oceans

Are beckoning my soul and my heart

To take part

In their world-transformation-dream. ```

36107

```

To escape from doubt-prison

Can never be

An impossible task.

```

36108

```

Whenever we are kind and compassionate

To a human being,

It must never be mere lip-service.

```

36109

```

‘Next time’ is to be found

Only in the dictionary

Of fools.

```

36110

```

The heart needs

God the Lover. ```

36111

```

The mind needs

God the Master. ```

36112

```

The vital needs

God the Ruler. ```

36113

```

The body needs

God the Awakener. ```

36114

```

I need

God the Inspirer. ```

36115

```

I must develop every day

A hunger to breathe in

God’s very Breath.

```

36116

```

Only the wise seekers

Feel the necessity

To have both their outer life

And inner life

In perfect condition.

```

36117

```

Negativity-mind-eyes

Only see stop signs

Everywhere.

```

36118

```

Very long ago

God had a Dream.

The Dream is not yet fulfilled.

What is that Dream?

Humanity’s radical transformation.

```

36119

```

The heart is all eagerness

To love and be loved

By God.

```

36120

```

Every day, God fills up

My aspiration-heart-vessel.

Alas, I empty it at my sweet will!

```

36121

```

My every breath

Is the proof of God’s

Compassion-Forgiveness-Presence

On earth. ```

36122

```

The difference

Between God and man

Is this:

Man decries me;

God extols me.

```

36123

```

My Lord most powerfully loves

When I take tremendous pride

In the grand total

Of my earthly achievements. ```

36124

```

My Lord tells me:

“My child, you must give yourself

A relaxation-experience

Before you embark

On a new inner journey.”

```

36125

```

I do not want myself

To be the slave

Of constant likes and dislikes.

```

36126

```

I rely on

God’s Horizon-Smiles. ```

36127

```

God relies on

My ever-new cries. ```

36128

```

God is desperately trying

To hide

From our constant misdeeds,

But, alas, He has not found

A secret place to go.

```

36129

```

If you do not or cannot

Go out of your way

To assist your brothers and sisters,

Then do you not realise

That this world of ours

Will remain the same —

Useless in every way?

```

36130

```

There is only one way

To make up for lost time:

A breathless God-cry.

```

36131

```

Alas, self-indulgence

Has full mastery

Over human life.

```

36132

```

In the aspiration-heart-world,

There is no stranger. ```

36133

```

My soul desperately tries

To give a good report

To God

About my love-devotion-surrender-life. ```

36134

```

The mind

A rest-lover.

```

36135

```

The heart

A God-Test-dreamer.

```

36136

```

Do not worry!

Your mind’s desire-leaves

Will very soon wither away.

```

36137

```

If we do not claim

God’s Smiles as our own,

We will never be able

To succeed in life. ```

36138

```

God’s Compassion-Action

And Forgiveness-Action

Know no expiry.

```

36139

```

Do not hesitate

To wave good-bye

To your God-forgetting self.

```

36140

```

If devotion is not

A constant reminder of God

In our hearts,

Then what else? ```

36141

```

Sterling service to God

Should be the dream and reality

Of a genuine God-seeker.

```

36142

```

I wish my Lord

To chart my life’s course

Every morning.

```

36143

```

With any sincere effort we make,

God becomes extremely pleased

With us.

```

36144

```

My only friend

Is my Lord’s Command

And not His Request.

```

36145

```

The only thing my Lord wants from me

Is to keep no connection

With ignorance-night.

```

36146

```

Hesitation,

I shall never take you

As my friend!

```

36147

```

Ego is illusion, delusion,

Self-aggrandisement

And many things more.

```

36148

```

I am only under obligation

To please my Lord Supreme

And nobody else.

```

36149

```

God’s Protection

Is always eager to save my life

From untold dangers.

```

36150

```

When we joyfully work together

For our Lord Supreme,

His Pride in us knows no bounds.

```

36151

```

The inner red lights

And outer green lights

We must value equally.

```

36152

```

God enjoys His Life

Only when I sing for Him

An unconditional surrender-heart-song.

```

36153

```

My God-obedience

My most valuable God-Treasure.

```

36154

```

God loves all the songs

That I sing for Him,

But His most favourite Song

Is my surrender-life-song. ```

36155

```

My Lord, may I breathe in

Your Compassion-Breath

At every moment

Of my life. ```

36156

```

We must never neglect

Even one God-pleasing

And God-fulfilling

Opportunity. ```

36157

```

Each moment

Is very special for my heart

To cry

For God’s Compassion-Eye. ```

36158

```

An obedience-heart

The fastest progress-life.

```

36159

```

My Lord, You are now carrying

My heart-tears,

But I hope soon You will carry

Only my life-smiles. ```

36160

```

When I have sincere gratitude

In my heart for God,

God comes down to me

Very quickly. ```

36161

```

When I have sincere gratitude

In my heart for God,

My life becomes

Sweeter than the sweetest. ```

36162

```

Life after life,

I pray to You, my Lord,

To remain the only King

Of my heart. ```

36163

```

Each time I look at

My Master’s eye,

I hear the Voice of Divinity.

```

36164

```

Each time I look at

My Master’s feet,

I see Heaven proudly cradling

My life. ```

36165

```

If we have true love for God,

There can be no serious obstacles

In our life.

```

36166

```

No more shall I allow my life

To drown

In ignorance-night-sea.

```

36167

```

My Lord,

You are with me, to please me.

May I not be for You,

To please You all the time? ```

36168

```

The aspiration-heart

Does not believe in

The existence of doubt.

```

36169

```

My gratitude-heart

And God’s Delight-Rainbow

Are always inseparable.

```

36170

```

My mind, start counting

God’s unconditional Blessings,

Before you totally forget them!

```

36171

```

Everything in my life

Is delightful

When I truly feel

That my love of God

Is absolutely sincere.

```

36172

```

My surrender-life

And God’s Attention-Eye

Are extremely fond of each other.

```

36173

```

My mind,

Do not wait any more.

God is all ready to leave you.

Your God-negligence is shocking! ```

36174

```

My Lord lives

For the constant increase

Of my love.

I live for the constant Victory

Of my Lord.

```

36175

```

My God-obedience

Touches God’s Feet

Whenever it meets with God.

```

36176

```

Gratitude

Is an unimaginable joy

For both humanity

And Divinity. ```

36177

```

God is never too busy

To help me

And lift me towards the Highest.

```

36178

```

My God-obedience

Power incarnate.

```

36179

```

The life that makes friends

With God-disobedience

Is infinitely worse than dead.

```

36180

```

O doubt,

I shall never allow you

To enter into

My mind-house. ```

36181

```

I long for a sleepless

God-satisfaction-life. ```

36182

```

Every day

My Inner Pilot blesses me

With His Affection, Sweetness

And Fondness. ```

36183

```

My meditation has the capacity

To take me to Heaven unmistakably

And bring me back down to earth safely.

```

36184

```

God takes human form

And mixes with us

As another human being,

So that it will not be beyond our imagination

To act like Him and go beyond and beyond,

Until we reach our highest. ```

36185

```

Every morning, my Lord examines

My love, my devotion and my surrender

To see if they are in good condition.

```

36186

```

To have a oneness-heart-world

We must offer ourselves completely

To the Will of God.

```

36187

```

God does not want to hear any more

My complaints

Against any human being.

```

36188

```

My prayer says to God:

“My Lord, please come down

And bless my heart.”

```

36189

```

My meditation says to God:

“My Lord, please carry me

To Your highest Height

And make me feel

That I belong to

Your inner Family Circle.” ```

36190

```

If you are disobedient,

O seeker,

Then you are taking a great disaster-risk

In your spiritual life. ```

36191

```

Every day

God spends so much time with me

Inside my heart.

Alas, when will I properly value

His divine Presence?

```

36192

```

My heart must cry and cry

To see my Lord’s Face,

His Eyes and His Heart

Smiling and dancing. ```

36193

```

Our vision of God

Is very poor.

We need God-surrender-spectacles.

```

36194

```

My faith is inside

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye,

And nowhere else.

```

36195

```

We leave behind our ignorance-life

Here on earth,

For Heaven does not want it.

```

36196

```

My prayer-life

Is the messenger

Of my illumining soul.

```

36197

```

I am on my way

To God’s Heart-Home.

I have no time to think of

Anything else. ```

36198

```

I must come out of

My mind-prison

By all manner of means.

```

36199

```

The most sincere seekers

Receive Blessings from God

In a very special way.

```

36200

```

When God sees

My gratitude-heart,

He smiles and sings.

```

36201

```

My devotion-heart

And my surrender-life,

I must remain always

In between you two! ```

36202

```

Only one thing

My heart needs:

The peace of

My meditation-silence. ```

36203

```

We must bring down Heaven

And feel its divine Beauty

And supreme Fragrance

Here on earth. ```

36204

```

Alas, when will humanity

Take seriously

The supreme Message

Of God’s Eye? ```

36205

```

The desire-life-satisfaction

Is the destruction

Of the divine life.

```

36206

```

Climb up, my heart, climb up!

God’s Heart is eagerly waiting

For you.

```

36207

```

Sleeplessly

My heart is looking

For God’s Compassion-Eye.

```

36208

```

Breathlessly

God’s Heart is looking

For my complete surrender-life.

```

36209

```

May my Lord’s constant

Victory-Songs

Reverberate in the very depths

Of my gratitude-heart. ```

36210

```

For my future progress,

I must depend only on God’s Grace

And be totally independent

Of my past activities. ```

36211

```

My Lord loves me

Most sincerely and most powerfully,

In spite of my conscious or unconscious

Disobedience-blunders. ```

36212

```

Humility, indeed,

Is infinitely greater

Than man-considered greatness.

```

36213

```

My God-obedience

Is the master key

To open up all the doors

Of my Lord’s Heart-Palace. ```

36214

```

We go from door to door

To announce

Our mighty achievements.

```

36215

```

God goes from door to door

To blessingfully offer

His Compassion-Service.

```

36216

```

I do not want to remain any more

On the battlefields

Of ambition, ego and pride.

```

36217

```

The sun of Infinity’s Light

Is inside my heart.

I must bring it to the fore

For the transformation of the world. ```

36218

```

My soul does not eclipse

Anybody’s sun-beauty.

On the contrary,

It helps others to shine their brightest. ```

36219

```

I came into the world

To think of the world,

To sing for the world

And to die for the world. ```

36220

```

When my inspiration and aspiration

Are at work,

I see the Heaven-Smile

Of my Lord’s Eye. ```

36221

```

My Lord, please,

Give me another chance,

For my love-devotion-surrender-

Transcendence-life. ```

36222

```

Smiles have beauty;

Tears have power. ```

36223

```

In silence only,

I hear the whispering Voice

Of our Beloved Supreme.

```

36224

```

We are only

Temporary visitors

Here on earth.

```

36225

```

Humility is, indeed,

God-closeness. ```

36226

```

Because my heart

Is spiritual,

My life belongs to all.

```

36227

```

Meditation embodies

Transformation-secrets. ```

36228

```

From fear to courage

Is a never-ending road. ```

36229

```

Your self-satisfaction-comfort

Is the beginning

Of your self-destruction.

```

36230

```

Each new seeker-arrival

The Master greets

With equal love, joy and pride.

```

36231

```

Will I ever be prepared

For Your Visit,

My Lord Supreme?

```

36232

```

My Lord, if You really love me,

Then scold me more and more,

And ever more.

```

36233

```

My heart-room

Has no seat

For lethargy.

```

36234

```

My aim

Is to live the life

Of a genuine self-giver.

```

36235

```

I am, again and again,

Failing You, my Lord.

“My child, do not worry.

Just do not give up!” ```

36236

```

Quite often

Light descends unnoticed

Into a seeker’s heart.

```

36237

```

Nobody can have

The outer enthusiasm

Without the inner courage.

```

36238

```

The real spiritual life means

To follow

The love-devotion-surrender-signs

Along Eternity’s Road. ```

36239

```

I disown all my doubts

And all their belongings. ```

36240

```

O insincerity-mind,

I shall force you

Into the darkness-cave!

```

36241

```

Nobody can prevent me

From taking the fastest speed-track

To my supreme Victory.

```

36242

```

God will not allow me

To leave His Manifestation-Service

Unfinished.

```

36243

```

My heart sings

Only one haunting song:

Surrender.

```

36244

```

Simplicity unmistakably

Paves the way

To heart-satisfaction.

```

36245

```

The mind-road

Is always travelled

By countless thought-travellers.

```

36246

```

Clear the mind

Of all its

Discouraging thoughts.

```

36247

```

The world needs

The inner aspiration-cries

From each and every human being.

```

36248

```

Each time we enjoy

An unhealthy thought,

We move away one step farther

From our Source. ```

36249

```

Nothing can ever cure my ignorance

Save and except

My Lord’s secret and sacred Smiles.

```

36250

```

My Lord, I am so grateful

To You

That You are discovering for me

My own deepest heart-secrets. ```

36251

```

My Lord tells me

That my life-smiles are measurable,

But not my heart-cries.

```

36252

```

Alas, each moment

My mind is deceived

By either doubts or anxieties.

```

36253

```

Neither my mind nor I

Shall be any more

Desire-puppets.

```

36254

```

I wish my heart

To be tireless

In its deepest meditation.

```

36255

```

Whatever a God-lover does

Is absolutely decisive. ```

36256

```

To my greatest joy

I was born under

The wisdom-light-sun.

```

36257

```

Previously my Lord asked me

To succeed for Him,

But now He is asking me

To succeed with Him. ```

36258

```

Silence

Is nothing short of

Dynamic energy.

```

36259

```

Indifference is shallow

And never deep. ```

36260

```

If you really want to retire,

Then retire within

Your own inner self.

```

36261

```

My heart lives

In the temple

Of God-Bliss.

```

36262

```

There can be no true God-love

Without peace within. ```

36263

```

This world needs

My God-manifestation-service —

Not tomorrow, not even today,

But now, right now! ```

36264

```

In the spiritual life,

Unconditional surrender

Is definitely the short-cut.

```

36265

```

I like to learn

Everything about God. ```

36266

```

God wants to learn

Only one thing about me:

Receptivity.

```

36267

```

My dreams without God

Are always quite frightening. ```

36268

```

My dreams with God, in God,

Are exceedingly illumining

And fulfilling.

```

36269

```

My aspiration-heart

Knows only one way:

God’s Way.

```

36270

```

God tells me that

When I pray and play

Inside His Heart-Garden,

There should be no interference

By hesitation and self-doubt.

```

36271

```

Heart-sprinters

Are endowed

With magnificent speed.

```

36272

```

Meditation is not the door

But the key

To God-realisation.

```

36273

```

We believe in

Our expectations. ```

36274

```

God believes in

Our aspirations. ```

36275

```

My mind,

When God comes to visit us,

Your absence pains Him,

And pains me as well. ```

36276

```

We turn to God

For everything. ```

36277

```

God turns

To His Compassion-Eye

For everything.

```

36278

```

Deception is caught

And summarily punished

In our Heavenward adventure.

```

36279

```

I do not want

A privilege-flooded life,

But I want

An aspiration-dedication-surplus-heart. ```

36280

```

No more anxiety-days

And no more worry-nights

For my aspiration-heart!

```

36281

```

One wrong thought

Can ruin everything

At the journey’s start.

```

36282

```

Only my Lord

Can put a stop

To my self-distrust.

```

36283

```

When I run towards God,

I carry with me

My mind-world, vital-world

And body-world. ```

36284

```

When God runs

Towards me,

He brings only Himself.

```

36285

```

Silence

Is my immediate

Heart-expansion.

```

36286

```

Silence

Is God’s sleepless

Satisfaction.

```

36287

```

We are eager

To have

God-nearness.

```

36288

```

God is eager

To see

Our goodness.

```

36289

```

O God-seeker,

Once you climb up your life-tree,

Never think of looking down!

```

36290

```

The mind’s voice

For God

Is limited, extremely limited.

```

36291

```

The heart’s choice

For God

Is both birthless and deathless.

```

36292

```

Alas, what are we doing?

We are trying to conceal ourselves

From our universal selves!

```

36293

```

A single-hearted cry

God-realisation-assurance.

```

36294

```

Obedience means

A tiny drop

Merging into the vast ocean.

```

36295

```

God-realisation

Is not a destination;

It is a stopover on the way

To God-manifestation. ```

36296

```

Soulfulness is needed

When we serve mankind. ```

36297

```

Happiness is needed

When we play with the world. ```

36298

```

This world

Is unimaginably beautiful

Except to the self-styled critics.

```

36299

```

My Lord never minds,

No matter how many times

I go to Him,

Under any pretext. ```

36300

```

Do not try to defend yourself,

But try to blend yourself

With the rest of the world.

```

36301

```

I came to God

As a tiny, insignificant drop,

But He tells me that

He will not be satisfied

Until He turns me into

An ocean of love. ```

36302

```

What reason can I give to God

Why I am unable to please Him

Even once a day?

Alas, what reason can I give? ```

36303

```

The first thing God does

In the morning

Is to visit the garden

Of my aspiration-heart. ```

36304

```

My Lord does not tolerate

My coming to Him

Even one minute late.

```

36305

```

All self-seekers

Eventually turn into

God-seekers.

```

36306

```

Do not expect the world

To applaud you.

The right Person to applaud you

Is God Himself. ```

36307

```

The disturbing human

In us

Will one day fail.

```

36308

```

The loving divine

In us

Is bound to prevail.

```

36309

```

My mind is not my prompter,

My heart is not my prompter,

My soul is not my prompter,

Even God is not my prompter!

My only prompter

Is God’s Compassion-Eye. ```

36310

```

To me, ‘frequently’ has no meaning.

Only ‘constantly’ has meaning

When we work for God.

```

36311

```

Our hearts’ devotion-wings

Are extremely powerful

To carry us into Infinity’s Sky.

```

36312

```

Selflessness of the heart

Must blossom into

Fulness of life.

```

36313

```

My heartbeat

Loves to please God

Sleeplessly.

```

36314

```

God’s Heartbeat

Loves to carry me

Far beyond the horizon.

```

36315

```

God sighs

When we do not pay any attention

To His Requests.

```

36316

```

Every morning

I offer two things to my Lord Supreme:

One is a God-loving song;

The other is a God-surrendering song. ```

36317

```

A heart-giver

Knows not

How to stop.

```

36318

```

May my heart-soil

Every day

Become more fertile.

```

36319

```

Those who live only for God

Have a special connection

With God’s Life-Breath.

```

36320

```

May my heart

Have a tear-flooded cry. ```

36321

```

In the spiritual life,

Cleverness is foolishness —

Foolishness, indeed!

```

36322

```

Attachment and sorrow

Play hide and seek. ```

36323

```

O seeker,

You will be so happy

If you become your buried pride.

```

36324

```

I disarm

My desire-life

With my wisdom-arms.

```

36325

```

Attachment

Paves the way

To self-destruction.

```

36326

```

God-lovers

Do not have to be

Life-enjoyers.

```

36327

```

I must love

The journey itself

Without caring for the goal.

```

36328

```

God-lovers

Can never enjoy

Indulgence-rest.

```

36329

```

God takes humanity’s problems

More seriously

Than we do.

```

36330

```

I try to make each moment

A compassion-flooded

God-Smile.

```

36331

```

My faith is so eager

To help me dive deep within

To hear the Voice

Of the Inner Pilot. ```

36332

```

I take every morning

An inspiration-aspiration-ride

To the highest floor

Of God’s Palace. ```

36333

```

Self-giving love

Is more beautiful

Than a rainbow.

```

36334

```

I discovered my path

Through perpetual failures. ```

36335

```

God’s Forgiveness-Heart

Can operate

Here, there and everywhere

With boundless Concern

And boundless Pride.

```

36336

```

Despair comes in

From without. ```

36337

```

Joy goes out

From within. ```

36338

```

Again and again,

I have been disappointing

My Lord Supreme.

I do not think

He will any more forgive me.

```

36339

```

I long for my life to be

My Lord’s Victory-Song. ```

36340

```

Each moment

Is a golden opportunity

To do the right thing

And become the right person:

A God-messenger.

```

36341

```

Nothing can shatter

My God-blessed heart-joy. ```

36342

```

I need only one thing:

Constant God-obedience-hunger. ```

36343

```

When I keep my eyes closed

To see God,

I get joy limited.

```

36344

```

When I see God

With my eyes half open

And half closed,

I get joy unlimited. ```

36345

```

God tells me that the breath

Of a silence-heart

Is invaluable.

```

36346

```

No matter how hard I try

To catch God unprepared,

I fail each and every time.

```

36347

```

God simply turns back

When I welcome Him

To my mind-palace.

```

36348

```

God simply comes running

Towards my heart-cottage

Even before I send Him

An invitation. ```

36349

```

God keeps ringing His Heart-Bell

For the seekers to come in,

Twenty-four hours a day,

But only very few seekers respond. ```

36350

```

To make me happy

And keep me happy all the time

Is at the top of my Beloved Lord’s

Priority List. ```

36351

```

Nobody deserves to have

God’s private Phone Number,

But somehow

God is giving His private Phone Number

To His chosen children.

```

36352

```

God smiles at some seekers

While His Heart is breaking.

Fortunately, I am not one of those!

```

36353

```

It is all up to God

To decide if the time is right

For me to cut off all earthly ties

And dedicate every second of my life

To Him.

```

36354

```

My Lord,

I wish to be imprisoned

By the Compassion-Smile

Of Your Eye. ```

36355

```

To study at my Lord’s

Heart-School,

I need countless heart-tears.

```

36356

```

God’s urgent news for my heart:

“My child,

Surrender your earth-existence

To Me immediately!” ```

36357

```

O my Heaven-bound thought,

Do carry me

To my Absolute Lord Supreme.

```

36358

```

The outer Presence

Of my Lord

Excites me.

```

36359

```

The inner Presence

Of my Lord

Thrills me.

```

36360

```

The outer way leads me

Always astray,

But the inner way, never.

```

36361

```

My mind

Enjoys fantasy. ```

36362

```

My soul, my heart and I

Treasure ecstasy. ```

36363

```

I have all I need

When my Master

Takes the lead.

```

36364

```

My prayers are satisfying

Only when they reach

The summit-heights.

```

36365

```

My meditations are satisfying

Only when they reach

The deepest depth.

```

36366

```

So far I have learnt

Only comfort,

But from now on I shall learn

Only effort, inner and outer. ```

36367

```

Why am I wasting my time

So foolishly?

Do I not know

That my Lord Supreme

In His Heart-Home

Is desperately waiting for me? ```

36368

```

My Lord, I am offering

All my earth-bound thoughts

To Your Compassion-Eye.

Do accept them. ```

36369

```

God not only knows

But also has become

The ceaseless earth-sorrows.

```

36370

```

My meditation-height

Blesses

My dedication-length.

```

36371

```

The outer pilot

Flies me

To a distant land.

```

36372

```

The Inner Pilot

Blesses me

To become His own,

Very own. ```

36373

```

Delight appears

Only when

I can no longer exist

Without the Presence

Of my Lord Supreme.

```

36374

```

In my spiritual life,

There is no going, no coming,

But only becoming

The Satisfaction-Heart

Of my Beloved Supreme.

```

36375

```

My happiness comes from

The earthly planet. ```

36376

```

My delight comes from

The Heavenly whispers. ```

36377

```

God touches my mounting

Aspiration-heart-flames

With His unbounded Pride.

```

36378

```

Every moment

And every movement

Of my life

Must be blissful. ```

36379

```

It is quite amazing

That my mind

Has started listening

To my heart. ```

36380

```

My heart

Has stood vehemently

Against insecurity.

```

36381

```

My mind

Has stood vehemently

Against impurity.

```

36382

```

My vital

Has stood vehemently

Against aggression.

```

36383

```

My body

Has stood vehemently

Against lethargy.

```

36384

```

I must make

Everything new again

In my life.

```

36385

```

To transcend myself,

I constantly

Compare myself

With my previous achievements. ```

36386

```

Quite often

My heart speaks to my soul

For advice.

```

36387

```

Do not allow doubt

To march any more

Along your mind-path.

```

36388

```

My prayer

My God-awareness.

```

36389

```

My meditation

My heart-expansion.

```

36390

```

My dedication

My life-satisfaction.

```

36391

```

Each human being

Has to do only one thing:

Unmask his divinity.

```

36392

```

Each positive step

Encourages us

To enter bravely

Into the Unknown. ```

36393

```

A meanness-mind

Almost incurable.

```

36394

```

A faith-life

Is, indeed,

A God-song.

```

36395

```

I am so happy

That my mind

Is unable to escape

My faith-flooded heart. ```

36396

```

Unwillingly,

With closed eyes,

The mind receives God.

```

36397

```

Eagerly,

With open eyes

And outstretched arms,

The heart receives God. ```

36398

```

Eagerness

Gladdens my heart. ```

36399

```

Curiosity

Torments my mind. ```

36400

```

My heart-tears

Are

My aspiration-home-builders.

```

36401

```

The inner problems

Can never be solved

With the outer solutions.

```

36402

```

The outer problems

Can be solved

Only with the inner solutions.

```

36403

```

Where is Heaven,

If not inside

My God-gratitude-heart?

```

36404

```

The real happiness

Is within,

And not without.

```

36405

```

Unless I can connect my life

Completely to God’s Will,

I shall not be really happy.

```

36406

```

My depression-life,

I shall bury you

Before long!

```

36407

```

My heart-action

Is the only action

That gives me true joy.

```

36408

```

A selfishness-mind

And a desire-life

Are always found together.

```

36409

```

I always listen

To my heart-whispers. ```

36410

```

The desire-life

Does not need courage,

But the aspiration-heart

Does. ```

36411

```

Poor earth,

How long will it take

For you to bring down Heaven?

```

36412

```

Practise patience.

Adversity shall disappear. ```

36413

```

My Lord wants me

To be familiar

With my soul’s activities.

```

36414

```

Discipline is, indeed,

A supreme secret. ```

36415

```

Imagination and aspiration-birds

Have to be caught

Immediately.

```

36416

```

I do not need religion-temples.

I need only my heart’s

Sacred and secret cottage.

```

36417

```

Desire-torture

Very hurtful.

```

36418

```

I shall not leave

My God-manifestation-task

Unfinished.

```

36419

```

I love to live

Only inside

My soul’s silence-temple.

```

36420

```

God’s Presence

I feel inside my heart

When my heart is all stillness.

```

36421

```

I shall not allow

My mind

To capture

My life. ```

36422

```

My heart’s soulful tears

And cries

Are bringing to me

An ocean of ecstasy. ```

36423

```

Restless thoughts

Have to be discarded

Sooner than at once.

```

36424

```

My Inner Pilot

Has come to the fore

And has told me

That He will whitewash

My darkness-life.

```

36425

```

Sleeplessly

I hear the throb

Of my God-satisfaction-heart.

```

36426

```

Always

Doubt is suspected

By all and sundry.

```

36427

```

I need

A full-strength aspiration-heart

To reach

The zenith-heights. ```

36428

```

Be careful of doubt!

It can plunder

All the divine qualities

You have. ```

36429

```

May my aspiration-strides

Be longer every day,

So that I can take

The shortest time

To reach my Destination.

```

36430

```

My Lord,

Please give me

A new name.

“My child,

I am giving you a new name:

Gratitude-blossom.” ```

36431

```

I smile and smile

While sailing

My heart-boat.

```

36432

```

I sing and sing

While flying

My soul-kite.

```

36433

```

The spiritual life

Gives us

Many significant choices.

```

36434

```

I have crossed

Far beyond

The forest of self-doubt.

```

36435

```

God means

God’s blissful

Heart-Paradise.

```

36436

```

When you need satisfaction,

It will definitely be granted

By God Himself.

```

36437

```

My Lord Supreme

Cares only

For my supreme need,

And not for what I desperately want. ```

36438

```

Each individual

Must be responsible

For his God-realisation

And his God-manifestation

On earth.

```

36439

```

Temptation

Secretly feeds

The disobedience-mind.

```

36440

```

I have cut asunder

My self-created miseries. ```

36441

```

If you have a genuine concern

For the world,

Then it must be voiced.

```

36442

```

If you look forward,

Then without fail

You will be able to go forward.

```

36443

```

Go forward

Slowly, steadily and unerringly,

Towards your destined Goal.

```

36444

```

Do not withdraw

From the world-stage.

God will shed pitiful tears.

```

36445

```

Every day

I long for new ways

To discover

My Lord Beloved Supreme. ```

36446

```

When I need to talk to God,

I do not have to go

To Heaven —

I talk to Him right here,

Right in front of me.

```

36447

```

My love of God

Has to be

An undying inner fire.

```

36448

```

My Lord has blessingfully

Given me the capacity

To soar to new heights

Every morning. ```

36449

```

My Lord does not care

For my stupid shyness;

He cares only

For my wise and soulful oneness. ```

36450

```

My very first thought

In the morning

Is my unconditional surrender

To my Lord’s Will. ```

36451

```

God’s Eye smiles at us

And then draws us

Close, closer, closest,

Like a divine Magnet. ```

36452

```

A child-heart knows

Neither the past nor the future.

He lives in the heart

Of the Eternal Now. ```

36453

```

My God-hungry heart

Sees Divinity’s presence

In my God-climbing aspiration-flames.

```

36454

```

The mind-eye

Sees Divinity in all,

But does not want to accept it.

```

36455

```

My devotion-heart

My God-intimacy-life.

```

36456

```

My heart throbs with happiness

Each time I consciously

Surrender my desire

To God’s Will. ```

36457

```

Make yourself always available.

At any time,

God can knock

At your heart-door! ```

36458

```

I will make my Lord Supreme

My own, very own,

On the strength

Of my ever-blossoming

Gratitude-tears.

```

36459

```

My meditation-heart

Brings in

My soul-delight.

```

36460

```

Only one drink I take:

My Lord’s

Nectar-flooded Will.

```

36461

```

I have only one wish:

My Lord’s sleepless

And breathless

Inner Presence. ```

36462

```

God’s number one Secret:

My heart is with Him

And for Him

All the time. ```

36463

```

My sincere heart-cries

For God

Are a very sacred matter

For me. ```

36464

```

When God is my Companion,

Imperfections

Do not approach me.

```

36465

```

Disobedience-blunders

Multiply rapidly. ```

36466

```

My Lord wants me

To fly with Him

To His Delight-Country,

But, alas, I am afraid

Of the Unknown.

```

36467

```

I shall never be satisfied

Unless and until

I make my Lord Supreme

Absolutely mine forever. ```

36468

```

I need nothing,

For my Lord Beloved Supreme

Has Infinity for me.

```

36469

```

The mind does not care

For God’s Advice.

It cares only for

Its personal glories. ```

36470

```

My Lord Beloved Supreme,

I do mind if You forget me,

Specially my heart-tears.

```

36471

```

I weep

Not because I have fallen,

But because I have

No intention of rising. ```

36472

```

More than my heart-breath,

I need the blessingful Presence

Of my Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

36473

```

My Lord is always

In my dreams.

Alas, when will I be able to see Him

Inside my earth-reality-existence? ```

36474

```

Neither God nor I

Can satisfy each other.

He wants me to go to Him;

I want Him to come to me! ```

36475

```

When my mind

Wants to do something,

My Lord immediately says

That He does not want

To get involved.

```

36476

```

My Lord,

Even if You do not select me,

I shall not mind,

But I shall mind if I do not think of You

And pray to You sleeplessly.

```

36477

```

I shall not displease You any more,

My Lord Supreme.

This is my solemn promise to You.

```

36478

```

My Lord,

I shall without fail

Beg of You

To give me the capacity

To think of You first,

Before I say or do anything. ```

36479

```

My heart is blessed

With a new map

To find the way to

My Lord’s Heart-Home. ```

36480

```

Each sincere heart

Is my Lord’s

Stupendous Pride.

```

36481

```

To be a sleepless,

God-conscious life

Is my sole desire.

```

36482

```

God’s Compassion-Eye

Wants me to be with Him

Twenty-four hours a day

And not for only a few hours. ```

36483

```

Lack of discipline

The inevitable failure.

```

36484

```

Once you turn fully to God,

God gives you not only what you need,

But much more,

In boundless measure. ```

36485

```

The mind immediately believes

In everything

That is not aspiring.

```

36486

```

Whatever life brings you,

Be grateful to only one Person:

God.

```

36487

```

Beauty

Is in the outer life

For its own glory.

```

36488

```

Fragrance

Is inside the inner heart

For God’s Glory.

```

36489

```

My heart immediately throbs

When I see my Lord Supreme

Passing by.

```

36490

```

Prayer-necessity

And meditation-necessity

Need soul-intensity

To run the fastest

Towards the Goal.

```

36491

```

I long for my Lord’s

Compassion-Eye

To speak to my weeping heart

Ceaselessly. ```

36492

```

When I do not

Pray and meditate regularly,

I feel God is far from me —

Farther than the farthest. ```

36493

```

There are no substitutes

For God’s Compassion-Eye

And His Forgiveness-Heart.

```

36494

```

To make me happy,

God does not stop

At anything.

```

36495

```

Once you start

Reciting God’s Name,

Never stop, never!

```

36496

```

Each smile from our heart

Meets with God’s

Tremendous Applause.

```

36497

```

Finally, my broken heart

Has found its rightful place:

Inside God’s Heart.

```

36498

```

At times, the outer pain

Is the beginning

Of inner gain.

```

36499

```

Success

Is a fleeting thrill.

Progress

Is a lasting bliss. ```

36500

```

Your enthusiasm-heartbeat

Has a magnetic power

To draw God.

```

36501

```

The outer beauty

Fails. ```

36502

```

The inner beauty

Not only has an everlasting life,

But also has an ever-spreading capacity.

```

36503

```

Not God’s Power

But God’s Tears

Have transformed my life.

```

36504

```

My faith and I

Speed along

The God-satisfaction-road.

```

36505

```

If we cannot rise above,

Far above,

The turmoil of the world,

How can we ever see God? ```

36506

```

God gives Himself

Unreservedly and unconditionally

To a devotion-heart.

```

36507

```

I call it my gratitude-heart.

God calls it

His sleepless Pride.

```

36508

```

My Master encourages me

To rise,

No matter how low I fall.

```

36509

```

Every second of my life,

I am drenched

In my Lord’s Gratitude-Tears.

```

36510

```

Real freedom

Is to be found

In God-obedience,

And in nothing else. ```

36511

```

When we run,

We please

Mother Earth.

```

36512

```

When we dive,

We please

Father Heaven.

```

36513

```

Every seeker agrees

On one thing:

God-realisation

Is of paramount importance. ```

36514

```

Think of God

And pray to God

For what He is:

The Ocean of

Infinite Compassion.

```

36515

```

From cradle to grave,

There is only one thing:

God’s Concern.

```

36516

```

Newness-mountain-height

I admire. ```

36517

```

Fulness-fountain-delight

I drink deep. ```

36518

```

Unhappiness

Means

Desire-fever.

```

36519

```

My mind,

Where are you going?

“I am not going anywhere.

I am just hiding,

For God is coming!”

```

36520

```

My Lord, may my aspiration

Be Your divine Arrow;

May my dedication

Be Your divine Bow. ```

36521

```

I shall not be pleased with my life

Unless and until I can become

My Lord’s Heart-Song.

```

36522

```

When God’s Compassion-Eye

Speaks to me,

I cry and cry with joy.

```

36523

```

When God’s Forgiveness-Heart

Speaks to me,

I become speechless.

```

36524

```

The unaspiring mind

Is endowed

With a self-deception degree.

```

36525

```

If you really love God,

If you really need God,

Then give Him immediately

The exclusive rights

Over your heart and life.

```

36526

```

Desire-life fulfilled,

God is nowhere

To be found.

```

36527

```

I tell the world the truth:

I knew God extremely well

In Heaven,

But now we are strangers

To each other.

```

36528

```

There is only one subject

My heart must study:

God-discovery.

```

36529

```

When the Master asks God

To bless his disciples,

God immediately says:

“I am not in the habit

Of taking away

Somebody else’s work!” ```

36530

```

The body

Ages;

The aspiring heart

Climbs and climbs. ```

36531

```

We all come to God

As the authors

Of all our incapacities.

```

36532

```

Be firm!

Do not surrender

To desire-hurricanes.

```

36533

```

Face reality

When it is all about

Your life.

```

36534

```

To live the life

Of happiness-wave

Is to rise

Higher and higher. ```

36535

```

When I pray and meditate

Wholeheartedly,

God teaches me how to go beyond

A new horizon. ```

36536

```

The noises of the world

Shall die

Sooner or later.

```

36537

```

The silence of the world

Shall only fly and fly. ```

36538

```

There is no end.

It is only a new beginning. ```

36539

```

My new goal says:

“God, for God’s Sake.” ```

36540

```

I live

Only when I feel

That I belong only to Him —

My Lord Supreme. ```

36541

```

My Lord knows

How to bless me

With His Beauty-Smile.

```

36542

```

I know

How to become

An immediate thrill.

```

36543

```

God gives —

He has every right

To give.

```

36544

```

God withdraws —

He has every right

To withdraw.

```

36545

```

When God gives me

A lesson,

Immediately my desires lessen.

```

36546

```

My Lord,

I want to be all Yours

In the purest sense of the term.

```

36547

```

Be careful,

O my heart!

My mind is jumping

Up and down. ```

36548

```

O my heart,

Be more mindful

Of my life.

```

36549

```

I wish my God-obedience-life

To be

An ever-transcending reality.

```

36550

```

When I think of

God’s Justice,

I try to hide.

```

36551

```

When I think of

God’s Forgiveness,

I enjoy immediately

A Heavenward ride. ```

36552

```

The inner beauty

Entirely depends on

The inner purity.

```

36553

```

When I started crawling,

God clapped

Proudly.

```

36554

```

When I started sprinting,

God embraced me

Endlessly.

```

36555

```

My inner pain

Reminds me of one thing:

I am failing God.

```

36556

```

God tells me that

Both my tears and smiles

Definitely serve

A very special purpose

In His Life.

```

36557

```

My desire-life

Is earth-born. ```

36558

```

My aspiration-heart

Is Heaven-bound. ```

36559

```

Spirituality

Is a lifetime

Inner exercise.

```

36560

```

Dedication needs

Astounding endurance. ```

36561

```

My Lord,

Do bless me

With an insatiable hunger

For Your Compassion-Eye. ```

36562

```

Humility

Divinity’s younger brother.

```

36563

```

God laughs and laughs

No matter how I try

To justify my anger.

```

36564

```

God does not find me

Where He left me.

Why?

Because in His Absence

The undivine forces bribed me,

And I followed them. ```

36565

```

When the desire-life

Fails to hound me,

My earth-journey

Becomes Heaven-bound. ```

36566

```

Earth

A factory.

```

36567

```

Heaven

An inventory.

```

36568

```

Life is not made of

Empty words.

Life is made of

God’s all-powerful Will. ```

36569

```

We do not need darkness

To appreciate light.

Light deserves to be

Appreciated and admired

In its own right.

```

36570

```

My Lord,

In my inner life

You play the role

Of a mighty Fire. ```

36571

```

My Lord,

In my outer life

You play the role

Of tiny flames. ```

36572

```

May each action of mine

Bring my Lord’s Vision down

To bless me.

```

36573

```

When my heart weeps for God

Without a break,

God comes down

To shake hands with me. ```

36574

```

When my life surrenders,

God’s Heart embraces my heart

Uncontrollably.

```

36575

```

Life is a search

For the Unknown.

So is death.

```

36576

```

When the Unknowable

Becomes knowable,

Man the God-dreamer

Succeeds. ```

36577

```

To see God’s Face

Is to be the winner

Of the inner race.

```

36578

```

We are born

With millions of attachments.

Therefore it takes time

To smash them asunder. ```

36579

```

The mind compels me

To stay

With the mind.

```

36580

```

The heart urges me

To be

At God’s Feet.

```

36581

```

The code of my inner life

My sleepless God-remembrance.

```

36582

```

The code of my outer life

My dedicated world-service.

```

36583

```

Once man’s aspiration-journey

Begins,

It knows not how to halt.

```

36584

```

For the unconditionally

Surrendered seekers,

Admission is free

To enter into

God’s Heart-Home.

```

36585

```

Unconditionally

I must offer my heart-smiles

To the whole world.

```

36586

```

Alas, what am I doing?

Am I not keeping

My Lord Supreme

Outside my heart-door

For a long time?

```

36587

```

My Lord,

How did I dare to neglect You

And avoid You

For such a long time? ```

36588

```

Today, I must force my mind

To see my Lord Supreme

In every God-seeker’s heart.

```

36589

```

The surrender-express train

Is the fastest train

From the earth-planet

To the Heaven-Kingdom. ```

36590

```

Alas,

God says something to us

And we hear something

Totally different! ```

36591

```

My Lord,

I was a great talker;

Now I am a good server.

Is it not Your Grace unconditional? ```

36592

```

To please God

Inside my breath

Is to please Him

All-where. ```

36593

```

O outer world,

I have seen you

And I have been with you

For a very long time.

Now I need a new life,

With new friends. ```

36594

```

I needed God’s Compassion-Eye.

To my greatest surprise,

I not only have God’s Compassion-Eye,

But also His Satisfaction-Heart. ```

36595

```

Although it is a most difficult task,

I must revive

My close God-connection.

```

36596

```

God is extremely fond

Of my ceaseless self-giving

Adventures.

```

36597

```

When God suffers,

I know who are

The real culprits.

```

36598

```

Every day, I tell my mind:

“Sleep, sleep!

When it is time,

I shall wake you up.” ```

36599

```

My Lord Supreme

Keeps one of His special bodyguards

To protect me

From the hostile forces

Twenty-four hours a day.

```

36600

```

Attachment,

I know that soon you will throw me

Into a sea of sorrows.

```

36601

```

My Lord says

To my ungrateful mind:

“I have given you

Everything that you asked for!

What else do you want?”

```

36602

```

Every day

My Lord is asking me to sing for Him,

Not only soulfully

But also self-givingly. ```

36603

```

Kindness gives.

It does not want to know

Why it gives.

```

36604

```

Inner wealth

Is to be acquired

For distribution

And nothing else. ```

36605

```

My Lord never minds

My insignificant capacity,

But He does mind

My unwillingness. ```

36606

```

I long only for perfection,

Both in my heart of aspiration

And in my life of dedication.

```

36607

```

Once we achieve success,

Suffering we see

Nowhere.

```

36608

```

My Master’s very name

Gives my heart

An unimaginable thrill.

```

36609

```

I am no longer desire-bound.

I am now only

Aspiration-dedication-bound.

```

36610

```

I was before

A small-minded human being,

But now I have become

A God-hearted seeker. ```

36611

```

My Lord Supreme

Has made His final Decision:

From now on,

He will tame my animal nature

Not by His Power

But by His Love. ```

36612

```

Divine beauty

Is always filled

With inner experiences.

```

36613

```

When the human in me

Speaks,

Nobody cares to listen.

```

36614

```

When the divine in me

Speaks,

Nobody misses my speech.

```

36615

```

My Lord,

Out of His infinite Bounty,

Has given me

Both the voice of ecstasy

And the poise of ecstasy.

```

36616

```

I do not know why

God so often loves to hide

In a human body.

```

36617

```

O suffering humanity,

True, I cannot cure you,

But I must tell you

That I am all for you. ```

36618

```

Alas, useless desires

This world has become —

Completely hopeless!

```

36619

```

Today

My Lord is celebrating

My emptiness-mind.

```

36620

```

Tomorrow

My Lord will celebrate

My fulness-heart.

```

36621

```

I must aspire

For the capacity

To go beyond Time.

```

36622

```

The mind has tremendous capacity,

But, alas, it does not use its capacity

For the right purpose.

```

36623

```

My soul says to my body:

Breathe in! Breathe in!

I have brought for you

The purest delight. ```

36624

```

The inner happiness

Has the capacity to destroy

All wrong thoughts and ideas.

```

36625

```

My soulful inspiration

Brightens my mind. ```

36626

```

My prayerful inspiration

Deepens my heart. ```

36627

```

My powerful inspiration

Lightens my life. ```

36628

```

My silence-heart

Has cured all my turmoils —

Inner and outer.

```

36629

```

What I am aiming at:

To forget the past;

To forgive the future.

```

36630

```

Sweetest

Are

My God-devotion-prayers.

```

36631

```

When my mind hears me praying,

It immediately tries

To keep aloof.

```

36632

```

Eagerness does not wait

For the future —

It is all here and now.

```

36633

```

The mind misleads,

But the heart has the capacity

To lead us to the Destination.

Alas, knowing this perfectly well,

We allow the mind to mislead us!

```

36634

```

I must fly high

Every day

On my soul’s flaming wings.

```

36635

```

My Lord’s Forgiveness —

I know when it begins,

But I do not know if it will ever end.

```

36636

```

I try to hide from God

When I act foolishly,

But, alas, I see God shedding tears

Instead of scolding me. ```

36637

```

My God-surrender-delight

Knows no obstructions. ```

36638

```

God is helping us all the time,

Not only to learn

But also to unlearn.

```

36639

```

Each tear of my heart

Brings my Lord’s Feet

Closer and closer to me.

```

36640

```

Each time I have a positive thought,

I feel I am being lifted high,

Very high,

By an unseen Hand. ```

36641

```

My heart

Does not govern anything —

It only loves, guides and leads.

```

36642

```

My Lord’s Compassion-Eye

Does not know

How to close.

```

36643

```

My Lord Beloved Supreme,

Do tell me when my heart shall be

In full aspiration-bloom.

```

36644

```

My meditation-whispers

Never fail

To show me the correct way.

```

36645

```

God is always eager

To shoulder all my burdens.

I do not know why

I vehemently resist. ```

36646

```

The mind gets

Tremendous pleasure

By repeating the past.

```

36647

```

The heart gets

Tremendous joy

By becoming

The beauty and fragrance

Of the Eternal Now.

```

36648

```

My heart is all persistence

In doing the right thing. ```

36649

```

My mind is all resistance,

Right from the beginning. ```

36650

```

A sleeplessly God-loving heart

Flies

In Infinity’s Freedom-Sky.

```

36651

```

In every situation,

God tells me what to do,

How to do, when to do,

Where to do —

Whether I obey Him or not.

```

36652

```

When God sees

My life’s progress reports,

At times He pitifully cries

And at times He mightily smiles. ```

36653

```

I only watch

My Lord’s Footsteps.

I have no time

To do anything else! ```

36654

```

I offer my Lord

A fleeting moment-prayer.

He transforms it

Into an everlasting joy

For Himself.

```

36655

```

I must be careful

All the time

So that my heart’s aspiration-flames

Are not extinguished. ```

36656

```

No time can ever be better

Than this very moment. ```

36657

```

Be always ready!

You have no idea

When your turn will come.

```

36658

```

The past has taught us many things,

Good and bad.

We must unlearn the bad ones

And carry with us the good ones,

Wherever we go.

```

36659

```

To be humble

Is to make

The fastest progress.

```

36660

```

The sweetness of the heart

Is next to

The godliness of the soul.

```

36661

```

We must pay

For everything that we learn,

Either on earth

Or in Heaven. ```

36662

```

A man of insincerity

Is a totally lost cause

In the spiritual life.

```

36663

```

Do not complain!

If you complain,

You are the one

To miss life’s express train. ```

36664

```

If your heart is empty

Of enthusiasm,

How can you achieve

Anything momentous? ```

36665

```

I must simplify my complexity-mind,

So that I can run

Faster than the fastest

Towards my Destined Goal. ```

36666

```

God gave us the heart

To love.

He expects only love from us

And nothing else. ```

36667

```

Discover every day

A new way

To give more joy

To God. ```

36668

```

Mirrors do not tell a lie,

And neither does

My God-climbing heart.

```

36669

```

If you set your own pace,

You will be able to see God’s Face

Sooner than otherwise.

```

36670

```

Do not deceive yourself!

That is the task

Of your enemies.

```

36671

```

Be the ruler of your own life.

If you do not,

Others will come and do it.

```

36672

```

The outer education

Gives us

The knowledge of the outer world.

```

36673

```

The inner education

Gives us the Wisdom

Of the Absolute Supreme.

```

36674

```

Your heart-opportunity-door

Keep always open. ```

36675

```

When somebody makes a mistake,

Sympathise

And do not criticise.

```

36676

```

I love my Lord Supreme,

Not out of compulsion

But out of my inner obligation.

```

36677

```

Undivine thoughts

Can make our body weak

Easily.

```

36678

```

Divine thoughts

Can strengthen our entire being

Immediately.

```

36679

```

Great people

Think that

They are really great.

```

36680

```

Good people

Never think that

They are really good.

```

36681

```

God cares infinitely more

For my attitude

Than my aptitude.

```

36682

```

There should not pass

Even a single day

Without some healthy humour.

```

36683

```

A good heart is always ready

To change for the better,

Whereas a great mind

Seldom is. ```

36684

```

Do not think too long!

Can you not see

You are starving your intuition?

```

36685

```

If you want to seek,

Seek love

And not prestige.

```

36686

```

Take your life

Not as a burden

But as a heart-garden

Of God. ```

36687

```

Wait for your turn.

God will definitely call you

At His choice Hour.

```

36688

```

True, no man is indispensable,

But we can all be trustworthy

And interdependable.

```

36689

```

I must win

The last battle:

Self-criticism.

```

36690

```

Goodness

Is nothing short of

Its own supreme reward.

```

36691

```

Divine love

Is the expression

Of one’s own inner beauty.

```

36692

```

Happiness

Brings us closer

To God’s Face.

```

36693

```

Unhappiness

Carries us

To the land of futility.

```

36694

```

Service

Is self-giving

And not pride-acquiring.

```

36695

```

Be brave!

Do not allow your mind

To imprison your life.

```

36696

```

You must control

Your thoughts.

If not,

You will be found

In your mind-zoo.

```

36697

```

The easiest way

To make the world beautiful

Is to bring one’s own heart-beauty

To the fore. ```

36698

```

Appreciate beauty,

Only to become

Beauty itself.

```

36699

```

Gratitude

Is the most significant word

In the heart-dictionary.

```

36700

```

The love of the heart

Directly comes from

The Eye of God.

```

36701

```

Self-giving

Is something

That we can indefinitely offer.

```

36702

```

Listen to Nature —

She speaks

Only for your good.

```

36703

```

Every heart has a secret.

My heart’s secret is:

I shall never, never stop loving God.

```

36704

```

Do not shout!

Both humanity and Divinity

Have giant ears.

```

36705

```

What I want now

Is the explosion

Of my inner joy.

```

36706

```

See whatever you want to see

Around you,

But be only what you truly are

In the inner world. ```

36707

```

Alas, this world belongs

To the powerful,

And not

To the soulful. ```

36708

```

This world has to change,

And for that,

I must raise my own divinity

To a higher range. ```

36709

```

God wants me

Not to blame my mind

But to tame my mind.

```

36710

```

As noise is necessary

In the outer world,

Even so,

Poise is necessary

In the inner world.

```

36711

```

God does not count my years —

He only counts

My heart-tears.

```

36712

```

The outer voice

Has to be founded

On the inner poise.

```

36713

```

Philosophy says

We can.

Spirituality says

We are doing it:

We are bringing down

God from Above. ```

36714

```

In the spiritual life,

Every second

Is of paramount importance.

```

36715

```

Look on the bright side,

For God’s Compassion-Eye

Is to be found

Only there. ```

36716

```

If becoming is your goal,

No harm in trying

Again and again!

```

36717

```

If you are afraid of defeats,

There will be

No goal for you.

```

36718

```

I lived the life

Of speed. ```

36719

```

I now live the life

Of depth. ```

36720

```

Everything is possible.

Look, my mind has become

A most devoted student

Of my heart! ```

36721

```

Everything is possible.

Look, earth and Heaven

Are running

Side by side! ```

36722

```

Everything is possible.

Look, my heart’s God-realisation

Is not a far cry!

```

36723

```

What happens in my life

Long ago happened

In God’s Heart.

```

36724

```

No surrender-step

Can ever be

Insignificant.

```

36725

```

The beauty of my soul-smiles

God voraciously

Drinks and drinks.

```

36726

```

If we do not allow darkness

To envelop the world,

Then darkness can do nothing,

Absolutely nothing! ```

36727

```

Gratitude-heart-tears

Are extremely sweet

And unimaginably fulfilling.

```

36728

```

The consciousness-river

Flows high and low

Before arriving at the God-Ocean.

```

36729

```

The eyes and the ears

Of my surrender-heart

Are so charming, inspiring,

Aspiring, illumining and fulfilling. ```

36730

```

This moment,

The vital wants to dominate

The world.

```

36731

```

The next moment,

The vital cleverly hides

From the world.

```

36732

```

Do not follow the mind!

Its road is slippery, zigzag

And extremely dangerous.

```

36733

```

God proudly loves

To play

With my beautiful and soulful prayers.

```

36734

```

God puts my meditation

Fully in charge

Of my life.

```

36735

```

When the Master becomes

All strictness,

In no time, the disciple becomes

Soulfulness and devotedness. ```

36736

```

I am determined

To blindfold ignorance-night

And its huge army.

```

36737

```

Prayers signify

Sky-climbing beauty. ```

36738

```

Meditations signify

Heaven-descending fragrance. ```

36739

```

My devotion-songs

Take shelter

At the Feet of my Lord Supreme,

Free of charge. ```

36740

```

God came down,

Blessed and embraced my heart.

It all happened

In the twinkling beauty

Of a second.

```

36741

```

Divinity —

Where is it,

If not inside the Fragrance-Heart

Of my Lord Supreme? ```

36742

```

O my heart,

Be not burdened

With the unnecessary sorrows

Of the world. ```

36743

```

My Lord Supreme,

Will I ever be able

To give You happiness

Once again in this life? ```

36744

```

I do hope that

The reign of Harmony

Will soon return

To this world. ```

36745

```

The unaspiring human mind

Is nothing other than

A whirlpool

Of chaotic movements. ```

36746

```

Nothing

Is as useless

As insecurity.

```

36747

```

No lamp is needed

On the way

To my soul’s Abode.

```

36748

```

Each human being

Must discover

His true self

In life. ```

36749

```

Only in my deep meditation

Do I come to know

Who I truly am.

```

36750

```

My heart and God’s Heart —

When they start talking,

It is always

A marathon conversation. ```

36751

```

Finally,

I have made God-manifestation

The most important thing

In my life. ```

36752

```

He who has hope

Can sing and dance

Here, there and everywhere.

```

36753

```

My desire-life

Is completely surrendered

To the bountiful Will

Of my Absolute Lord Beloved Supreme. ```

36754

```

My Lord wants me

To walk, march and run

Happily, proudly and self-givingly

On this earth. ```

36755

```

My life must not remain

An unfulfilled

God-manifestation-promise.

```

36756

```

My morning prayers

And my evening meditations

Give my Lord Supreme

Immense Delight. ```

36757

```

My Lord,

Why is it so difficult

To remember You all the time?

“My child, you have to love Me more,

Infinitely more.”

```

36758

```

When my heart sings,

God’s Heart is all attention. ```

36759

```

Everything that we do

On earth

Is old news

To our Absolute Supreme. ```

36760

```

My God-disobedience

Is infinitely worse

Than treachery.

```

36761

```

To make me happy,

What I need

Is a God-proclaiming heart.

```

36762

```

I wish to live my life

Between loveliness

And soulfulness.

```

36763

```

I pray to God

And meditate on God —

The Peace-Dreamer —

Inside my heart. ```

36764

```

The sound

Of the outer world

I have proudly enjoyed.

```

36765

```

The silence

Of the inner world

I soulfully treasure.

```

36766

```

I breathe in God’s Love

From my soul’s world

And breathe out my concern

To the whole world. ```

36767

```

May my life

Be sleeplessly surrounded

By God’s Hopes and Promises.

```

36768

```

God-invocation

Knows no specific time.

You can invoke God

Any time you want to. ```

36769

```

Austerity,

No, no, no! ```

36770

```

Indulgence,

No, no, no! ```

36771

```

In between

Austerity and indulgence

My life firmly stands.

```

36772

```

Every good thought

Is climbing

Towards Paradise.

```

36773

```

Dream comes first,

Action second.

Third, and last, is surrender.

```

36774

```

Part-time servers

God never needs. ```

36775

```

Expectation-chain

Is very difficult

To break.

```

36776

```

Thought-waves subside

When I enjoy

God’s Compassion-Eye-Ride.

```

36777

```

Each time

I get what I want,

My soul becomes miserable.

```

36778

```

Each time I get

What God wants me to have,

My soul flies

In ecstasy-skies. ```

36779

```

Life ends

Long before death

When we stop aspiring.

```

36780

```

The heart is apt to learn

Any language

In no time.

```

36781

```

Alas,

The mind is never tired

Of its long-standing arguments.

```

36782

```

Overwhelming odds

Can be conquered

If we dive into

God’s Compassion-Sea. ```

36783

```

God cares

For my heart’s

Lotus-pond.

```

36784

```

God never cares

For my tumultuous

Ocean-mind.

```

36785

```

My Lord, my Beloved,

You are Your Lotus-Feet,

And I am my gratitude

At Your Feet. ```

36786

```

Everything of my Lord

I love,

But His Smile-flooded Eyes

I love the most. ```

36787

```

Nothing tortures me

As powerfully

As my own life’s repentance-tears.

```

36788

```

Spirituality means

Desire-transformation. ```

36789

```

A life

Of continuous comfort

Is a venomous drink.

```

36790

```

The world needs

Gratitude-heart-gardens

To live in the home

Of beauty and fragrance. ```

36791

```

Desire-intoxication-life

I was. ```

36792

```

God-intoxication-heart

I now am. ```

36793

```

Humility covers

The length and breadth of the world

In secrecy supreme.

```

36794

```

God’s Dream —

That no human being

Should ever lose hope.

```

36795

```

Hope is God-made —

Both elevator

And escalator.

```

36796

```

The silence of the heart

Carries the seeker

To the highest Heaven

Of Delight. ```

36797

```

All the members of my family —

Soul, heart, mind, vital and body —

Agree on only one thing:

I am of God

And I am for God only.

```

36798

```

God wants the heart

To teach the mind,

But the mind wants to learn

Only from jealousy-king. ```

36799

```

The doubt-attacker

Is no match

For a genuine God-lover.

```

36800

```

Difficulty surmount,

Progress-amount

Start to count!

```

36801

```

When my mind speaks

One nice word about God,

God immediately brings down

For my mind

His Mountain-Summit-Bliss.

```

36802

```

Do not complain,

Do not explain —

God loves you

Only to entertain Him. ```

36803

```

The heart does not need

Any exit,

Because it wants to remain

Inside the Heart of God

Permanently.

```

36804

```

The mind needs exits.

Therefore

They are sorrowfully provided.

```

36805

```

If you become

A fast-climbing seeker,

God will become immediately

The fast-descending Lover. ```

36806

```

God’s Compassion-Height

And His Justice-Light

Are interchangeable.

```

36807

```

What does ignorance do

To my salvation?

It just sneers at it.

```

36808

```

God is

God’s torrential Grace. ```

36809

```

I am my terrestrial

Bewildered face. ```

36810

```

My heart’s mounting pain

Takes shelter

In my Lord’s dancing Rain.

```

36811

```

The difference

Between God and me

Is this:

I love to smile at God;

God loves to smile for me.

```

36812

```

Two things we need:

Cleverness-transformation

And

Wisdom-illumination. ```

36813

```

I wish to spend my time

Between

My heart’s eagerness-blooms

And

My life’s enthusiasm-blossoms.

```

36814

```

No matter which way my heart looks,

God immediately comes

And stands before my heart.

```

36815

```

Love is God’s

Most successful

Earth-extension.

```

36816

```

Sacrifice is God’s

Most powerful

Heaven-extension.

```

36817

```

Disobedience-treachery

Is a disgrace

Unto itself.

```

36818

```

God’s Love

Is my heart’s

Insatiable hunger.

```

36819

```

My heart

Is God’s

Fondness-doll.

```

36820

```

Power

Is never

Peace.

```

36821

```

Peace

Is always

Power.

```

36822

```

The mind wants

Either everything

Or nothing.

```

36823

```

The heart loves

To embody

Everything of everything.

```

36824

```

The mind chooses

Only to lose. ```

36825

```

For the sake of God,

The heart eagerly wants

To lose everything.

```

36826

```

O my God-Heart-Fragrance-Home,

For a long time

I have been away.

Do take me back! ```

36827

```

My God-worshipping

Vision-plant

Can never be uprooted.

```

36828

```

God’s Heart

Breathes in

The dream of world-transformation.

```

36829

```

God’s Heart

Breathes out

His transcendental Promise:

Illumination. ```

36830

```

God eagerly waits

For the readiness of my life’s

Love-devotion-surrender-game.

```

36831

```

I always see

Advancing beauty

In God’s Command.

```

36832

```

My heart is deep,

My soul is high,

And I am hungry —

God-hungry. ```

36833

```

The human in us

Only prays

When necessity demands.

```

36834

```

The divine in us prays,

For there is nothing else

Worthwhile.

```

36835

```

My heart

Is made of

God’s Compassion-Throbs.

```

36836

```

My soul-bird

Is a constant traveller

Between earth’s beauty

And Heaven’s Fragrance. ```

36837

```

Courage alone

Is not enough —

Courage needs guidance.

```

36838

```

Nobody likes to give shelter

To the doubting mind,

Even for a fleeting moment.

```

36839

```

The world

Desperately needs

Heart-angels.

```

36840

```

The world

Never needs

Mind-giants.

```

36841

```

Every day

We must try

To make at least one person

Happy. ```

36842

```

My Lord,

May I do everything

Only to please You

In Your own Way

From now on!

```

36843

```

My Lord lives everywhere,

But He lives

Inside my heart-tears

More prominently. ```

36844

```

At least sit

For a few hours a day

At your God-loving heart-shrine.

```

36845

```

We do not have to find

Our way home.

We are home.

```

36846

```

Every single desire

Is nothing other than

An inner enemy.

```

36847

```

As everything multiplies

In the wrong way,

Even so, we have the capacity

To make everything multiply

In the right way.

```

36848

```

As we are free to descend,

Even so,

God has given us

The freedom to ascend —

High, higher,

As high as we want! ```

36849

```

Self-applause

Is the immediate grave

Of a seeker.

```

36850

```

Only a fool like me

Can say

That God is only for others,

And not for me as well. ```

36851

```

Every single breath

Is a God-experience

For the betterment of our life.

```

36852

```

Opportunity comes,

But it does not stay

Indefinitely.

```

36853

```

A stupid person

Does what his mind

Wants him to do.

```

36854

```

A wise person

Clearly sees

That God is doing everything,

In and through him. ```

36855

```

The vital and the mind

Always want

To have everything done

In their own way. ```

36856

```

I know

My mind will one day be

Tired of God-resistance,

And I also know that day

Is fast approaching!

```

36857

```

We must not

Renounce the world —

Never!

```

36858

```

We must only announce

God’s Victory

At every moment

Here on earth. ```

36859

```

Disobedience

Is backward sprinting

With no destination.

```

36860

```

I do hope the next generation

Far surpasses

The present generation

In doing the right things

To please God in His own Way.

```

36861

```

I have heard

From God Himself

That I am doing exceptionally well

In my self-giving life. ```

36862

```

Ignorance-hunger

And ignorance-thirst

Are insatiable.

```

36863

```

Why do you have to remain

A loser all the time?

Work hard, work harder,

With a pure mind!

You will be a winner

In your spiritual life. ```

36864

```

O my mind,

I clearly see that your guidance

Will lead me

To utter destruction. ```

36865

```

No divine goal

Can be achieved

Without constant,

Sleepless love of God. ```

36866

```

I allow

Only aspiration-seekers

To encircle my soul.

```

36867

```

Everyone needs a rest.

I need my rest

Only amidst the dust

Of my Lord’s Feet. ```

36868

```

O my mind,

Do not wander any more through life.

Just turn, and be inside

Your own heart-home.

Happiness will be there for you

In boundless measure. ```

36869

```

Who is pulling on me,

If not my self-created

Bondage-limitations?

```

36870

```

Our heart-dreams

Never fail us. ```

36871

```

We must depend on

Our simplicity-mind,

Purity-heart and self-giving life

To bring about God’s Victory

Here on earth.

```

36872

```

Once we truly surrender

Our life

To God’s Will,

We cannot take it back! ```

36873

```

Patience

Is the supreme secret

To achieve what we really want.

```

36874

```

Hope, O sweet hope,

You are still keeping humanity

Alive!

```

36875

```

God lives most proudly

Inside the purity

Of a child’s heart.

```

36876

```

I envision

Each thought of mine

Inside my Lord’s Compassion-Eye.

```

36877

```

O my heart’s

God-obedience-wings,

Fly high, higher, highest!

```

36878

```

May my heart

Be a completely fertile field

For my self-giving life.

```

36879

```

My God-devotion

Is a very rich reality

In my life,

To make me happy. ```

36880

```

When the heart-tears

Invite God,

God immediately runs

Towards the heart-tears. ```

36881

```

Enthusiasm and cheerfulness —

They keep God

Always happy.

```

36882

```

The mind

Never stops complaining.

Why pay attention

To the complaining mind? ```

36883

```

God started visiting me

The moment my heart

Started blooming.

```

36884

```

Not retirement,

But enlightenment —

This is what my aspiration-heart

Wants and needs. ```

36885

```

God’s Compassion-Torrent

Has always fulfilled

My Heaven-climbing cries.

```

36886

```

No matter how many times a day

I see my Lord,

Each time

I get an enormous thrill. ```

36887

```

God the Commander

Does not succeed

In my life.

```

36888

```

Only God the Lover

Succeeds

In my life.

```

36889

```

Meditation

Constantly reminds us

Of our perpetual journey

To God’s Heart-Home. ```

36890

```

My Lord tells me

That I must live on earth

Not to become,

But only to give and give. ```

36891

```

Happy thoughts

Keep even the mind

Very strong.

```

36892

```

Every day

The heart-explorers

Will find new,

Supremely high Heights. ```

36893

```

God-manifestation-possibilities

Must be every day

On the increase.

```

36894

```

If I see God smiling

In every face,

Then I am truly advanced

In my spiritual life. ```

36895

```

May I see

My Lord’s Love-Aura

Inside

My aspiration-heart. ```

36896

```

The heart thrives enormously

The moment it feels

The Presence of God.

```

36897

```

My heart

Is everywhere

To please God.

```

36898

```

My mind is nowhere.

It cares not

Where God is

Or where God is not. ```

36899

```

God does not need

A monument;

He needs only

Moment-to-moment service

From me.

```

36900

```

O my mind,

Stop wandering

Foolishly and aimlessly

In the streets of failure-life. ```

36901

```

God cries and cries

When He sees

Our counterfeit love,

Counterfeit devotion

And counterfeit surrender.

```

36902

```

My silence

My ever-listening

To God-Whispers. ```

36903

```

God’s Name-repetition

Is a most sacred way

To realise God.

```

36904

```

God does not dictate.

He only asks us

To dive deep within

To dedicate ourselves. ```

36905

```

God-longing

Sweetness itself.

```

36906

```

What we need

A God-receptivity-cry.

```

36907

```

What we need

A God-receptivity-smile.

```

36908

```

To live divinely

And supremely on earth,

We must sleeplessly give.

There is no other way. ```

36909

```

Every day

I come closer and closer

To the familiar shores

Of Delight. ```

36910

```

Surrender-depth

Immeasurable.

```

36911

```

O my mind,

You are never home,

No matter how many times

My Lord comes to visit you! ```

36912

```

Whatever God tells me

Is ancient

And, at the same time,

Ever-new. ```

36913

```

When God governs my moments,

I feel Heaven is nowhere else —

Heaven is not only inside my heart,

Heaven is in my life itself. ```

36914

```

Patience-virtue

Unparalleled.

```

36915

```

Do not focus

On your weaknesses. ```

36916

```

Focus only

On your God-loving

Strengths.

```

36917

```

At least for a day,

Let me love, only love,

Only love the world!

```

36918

```

May my heart’s

Happiness-waves

Only rise and rise and rise.

```

36919

```

When I heard my Lord Supreme

Singing in my heart

For the first time,

I saw Infinity’s Smile

Inside a weeping heart.

```

36920

```

If you do not face the truth

About your own self,

Then you will never be able to be near

God’s Heart-Home. ```

36921

```

When my Lord rings the bell,

I do not walk,

I do not run,

I just fly and fly

With my soul.

```

36922

```

If it is a oneness-heart,

Then it has to be

Love-made.

```

36923

```

My heart-tears

Have finally ended

My mind’s arrogance.

```

36924

```

My heart

Has only one task:

God-fulfilment.

```

36925

```

O my mind,

The more you dislike the heart,

The more you are going away

From God. ```

36926

```

My Lord tells me

That if I need beauty in my eyes,

Then I must establish

Purity in my heart. ```

36927

```

Love comes

Only to liberate us

From fear.

```

36928

```

When God smiles,

I immediately feel who I am:

The choice child of God.

```

36929

```

I pray and pray for God

Never to leave me

Ever again!

```

36930

```

I wish to remain

Inside my heart’s brightness

And my soul’s fulness

All the time. ```

36931

```

My God-awareness-breath

The height of my spirituality.

```

36932

```

Meditation

The smasher of temptation.

```

36933

```

The heart encourages

The mind, the vital and the body

To see the Light,

Feel the Light

And become the Light.

```

36934

```

The mind discourages

Everything and everyone.

Finally, it discourages

Its own existence-reality. ```

36935

```

God gives us

Again and again

Chances for a better start

And a more fulfilling finish. ```

36936

```

Each God-thought

Has tremendous fragrance

In it.

```

36937

```

When I touch my Lord’s Feet,

My every heart-breath

Dances with delight.

```

36938

```

Every time God speaks to me,

I engrave His Message

On my heart.

```

36939

```

When I cry for God,

I see

His fastest Speed.

```

36940

```

To make me happy,

My eyes have to see

Only positive realities in life.

```

36941

```

The soul’s luminosity

Shatters

The mind’s stark darkness.

```

36942

```

The Lord

Of my ancient Heart-Home

Has summoned me.

```

36943

```

No matter how badly

The world misunderstands me,

I shall not abandon the world.

```

36944

```

Today

I am enjoying

The bonfire

Of my old weaknesses. ```

36945

```

My Lord,

For aeons I have deliberately forgotten

Your Compassion-Eye

And Forgiveness-Heart. ```

36946

```

Countless are the times

That I forget my Lord

Each day.

```

36947

```

The outer beauty

Pleases

The outer world.

```

36948

```

The inner beauty

Pleases

God.

```

36949

```

The mind-abyss

Does not believe in accepting

The light from the soul.

```

36950

```

Silence is not dead —

Silence has the capacity

To roar

Like thousands of lions put together! ```

36951

```

No matter how much we do

For the world,

The world thinks it is too little.

```

36952

```

No matter how little I do for God,

God says:

“My child, you have pleased Me

More than I could ever imagine!” ```

36953

```

We laugh at sleepwalking

Only when we are fully awake.

If not, we enjoy sleepwalking!

```

36954

```

When we do not listen to God,

God at times cries,

God at times thunders.

```

36955

```

When the mind

Is the listener,

God needs

An interpreter. ```

36956

```

When the heart

Is the listener,

God does not need

Any interpreter. ```

36957

```

The heart

Understands God

Easily.

```

36958

```

No matter which language

God uses,

The heart can understand.

```

36959

```

We see the Light,

We know the Light,

We also see the Light beckoning us —

Yet we do nothing for the Light!

We remain completely silent.

```

36960

```

God scolds me

Only to make me good,

So that He can play

His Flute of Rhapsody

Inside my heart.

```

36961

```

My Lord,

Do possess me

As soon as possible.

I am regressing very fast

In the inner world.

```

36962

```

The more the heart practises

To please God,

The more the mind preaches

To please itself. ```

36963

```

We pretend

To know everything

That God does.

```

36964

```

God pretends

That He knows nothing

When we do something wrong,

Absolutely wrong. ```

36965

```

At this rate,

To realise God,

To reveal God

And to manifest God

Is almost an impossible task.

```

36966

```

God gives

His chosen children

His Heart-Fragrance.

```

36967

```

My heart is full

Of Heavenly dreams

To raise the consciousness

Of the earth. ```

36968

```

God is all the time

Dreaming His sweet Dreams

Inside the aspiration-heart

Of each seeker. ```

36969

```

Happiness and satisfaction

Are

Two inseparable friends.

```

36970

```

Every day

I live in the heart

Of my soul’s hope-dawn.

```

36971

```

A simple mind

And a sincere heart

Are among the very special children

Of God. ```

36972

```

I become truly happy

Only when I place my proud head

At the Feet of my Lord Supreme.

```

36973

```

I live in between

My inner faith

And

My outer courage. ```

36974

```

God’s Compassion-Flood

Every day we receive,

Yet we fail to change our nature!

```

36975

```

The eyes of my heart

Are all-seeing,

Whereas the eyes of my mind

Are totally blind. ```

36976

```

God the Supreme Magician

Has turned my unaspiring life

Into His choice instrument.

```

36977

```

God’s Concern

Sees everything in us

And does everything for us.

```

36978

```

I want my heart

To be filled

Only with God-gratitude-tears.

```

36979

```

We must never take

God’s Compassion and Love

For granted.

```

36980

```

God’s Will

Is bound to be successful

In my life

At the end of my earth-journey. ```

36981

```

My God-obedience

Has free access

To all the planes of consciousness.

```

36982

```

My surrender-life

Is the fulfilment

Of my Lord’s

Secret and sacred Dreams. ```

36983

```

God’s Inspiration-Joy

And

My eagerness-heart

Are always found together. ```

36984

```

It is high time

For me to completely shun

My doubt-flooded mind.

```

36985

```

Alas, my self-doubt

Has cost me

Dearly!

```

36986

```

God is extremely proud

Of my illumining mind

And adoring heart.

```

36987

```

When my Lord moves an inch

Towards me,

My heartbeats sing and dance

Immediately. ```

36988

```

May our devotion

Flow from our heart

To God’s Heart,

The way God’s Love

Spontaneously flows

Towards us. ```

36989

```

The mind is so stupid —

It even resists

God’s unconditional Smile!

```

36990

```

My mind always finds fault

With the world —

Unnecessarily and uselessly.

```

36991

```

My Lord Supreme,

You have not only

Seen and felt my heart,

But also

You have captured my heart taut!

```

36992

```

God wants me

To fly and fly

On the beautiful wings

Of my soul-bird. ```

36993

```

Every day

I read ten pages

From my God-gratitude-heart-book.

```

36994

```

God’s Gratitude-Field

Invites

A sleeplessly self-giving heart

To sow the seeds of Immortality. ```

36995

```

My Lord,

In every field of my life,

You claim me as Your own.

Therefore, my heart is all gratitude

To You.

```

36996

```

Life needs

Ups and downs

For complete God-Victory.

```

36997

```

Each thought of mine

Will be totally transformed

For God-manifestation.

```

36998

```

May my heart

Be a fully-blossomed

Aspiration-flower.

```

36999

```

If you see the world

With your mind’s eye,

You are bound to be disappointed.

```

37000

```

If you see the world

With your heart’s eye,

You will see

So much that is good and inspiring

Here on earth.
