Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees, part 38

37001

```

May my heart

Every day embark

On the highest aspiration-climb

And farthest dedication-flight. ```

37002

```

I was a tiny mind-plant.

My Lord has now turned me into

His God-tree.

```

37003

```

God has appointed

My enthusiasm-heart

To be of endless service

To Him. ```

37004

```

My Lord wants me —

And everything that belongs to me —

To run straight to Him.

```

37005

```

Everything divine

That I have within

Today I have brought to the fore

For my God-worship. ```

37006

```

When the mind

Sings for the soul,

The soul jumps

Into the sea of ecstasy. ```

37007

```

God wants the self-giving hearts

To be in charge of

His Cosmic Game.

```

37008

```

In the morning,

My Lord asks me and my heart

To roar like a lion.

```

37009

```

In the evening,

My Lord asks me and my life

To soar like a bird.

```

37010

```

God does not come

Even near

The closed mind-door.

```

37011

```

Silence —

Sleepless and breathless —

Is all I need.

```

37012

```

My Lord, I come to You

Not out of fear,

But out of endless love for You.

```

37013

```

Determination is needed

To win

In the battlefield of life.

```

37014

```

Aspiration is needed

To love and become

The world.

```

37015

```

Hope inspires us

To fly

In God’s all-loving Sky.

```

37016

```

Dedication-life

Is all that I have. ```

37017

```

Devotion-heart

Is all that I am. ```

37018

```

May my self-giving life

Be always active

And dynamic.

```

37019

```

My outer life

Is full of

My heart-tears.

```

37020

```

My inner life

Is full of

Mounting aspiration-flames.

```

37021

```

There is only one piece of good news

That I can offer to my Lord Supreme:

My heart’s constant

Aspiration-beauty-fragrance. ```

37022

```

God is

His irresistible

Enthusiasm-Flood-Life.

```

37023

```

Purity-hearts

Are extremely eager

To dine with God

In the soul’s world. ```

37024

```

O my mind,

At any moment

God can arrive.

Be careful! ```

37025

```

God’s Compassion-Eye-Tears

Invariably become

God’s Satisfaction-Heart-Smiles.

```

37026

```

Progress

Is either in self-becoming

Or in God-becoming.

```

37027

```

Today’s prayer-life

Has to become

Tomorrow’s service-performer.

```

37028

```

God’s Heart-Magic

Is most

Astounding.

```

37029

```

Only the heart-hope

Carries my life

Wherever it goes.

```

37030

```

I am not totally lost,

Although my mind is blind

And my heart is blindfolded.

```

37031

```

Each divine victory

On earth

Is founded on sleepless tasks.

```

37032

```

My ego has not only caught me,

But also devoured me

Totally.

```

37033

```

One or the other:

Heaven-Fragrance

Or earth-beauty.

Which do you want? ```

37034

```

My self-abnegation

Is not the answer

To solve the problems

Either of my life

Or anybody else’s.

```

37035

```

An enthusiasm-heart

God’s Victory-Banner.

```

37036

```

Aspire!

You must aspire most sincerely

And most self-givingly

Before you can reach

The temple of God-ecstasy.

```

37037

```

My desire-eyes

I close;

My Lord extends

His open Arms. ```

37038

```

I awaken

My Lord’s Sweetness-Dreams

At every moment.

```

37039

```

Human beings

Find beauty charming,

But not duty.

```

37040

```

The life that does not turn

To God

Is more dead than alive.

```

37041

```

Our self-doubt-flood

Carries us away

From our Lord’s Heart-Home.

```

37042

```

God’s Heart is His Clarion Call

To awaken us

From the age-old ignorance-sleep.

```

37043

```

My soul-bird’s illumination-wings

Carry me

To my Lord’s highest Abode.

```

37044

```

I beg God to tell me

What He actually needs from me.

My Lord says:

“My child, indeed,

This is your task!”

```

37045

```

A seeker’s God-dreaming heart

Is a straight road,

Heaven-bound.

```

37046

```

When my devotion-heart

Is absolutely pure,

God comes running towards me

To ring my victory-bell. ```

37047

```

We must dive deep within

To discover

Our own divinity’s infinitude.

```

37048

```

God’s Heart dearly loves

My God-climbing tears. ```

37049

```

God’s Heart proudly admires

My God-spreading smiles. ```

37050

```

God’s Heart

Has the beauty

Of my tears.

```

37051

```

My heart

Has the fragrance

Of God’s Smiles.

```

37052

```

In God’s Eye,

My life’s transformation

Is never an impossible task.

```

37053

```

I love to offer God

My gratitude-heart-messages. ```

37054

```

God loves to bless me with

His Earth-Transformation-Dreams. ```

37055

```

My soul carries

My Lord’s Victory-Banner. ```

37056

```

I carry

The golden dust

Of my Lord’s Feet.

```

37057

```

God uses my meditation-heart

To thunder at and silence

My doubting mind.

```

37058

```

My soul was born

To fly and fly

In Infinity’s Sky.

```

37059

```

My heart was born

To cry and cry

On Eternity’s Lap.

```

37060

```

God appoints

Each soulful seeker

To sow spirituality-seeds

Throughout the length and breadth

Of the world.

```

37061

```

My heart and I celebrate

The earth-satisfaction-anniversary

Of our Lord’s Dream-Land.

```

37062

```

My mind

Always loves to be

The curiosity-devourer.

```

37063

```

My heart

Loves to be the collector

Of God’s golden Dreams.

```

37064

```

God proudly watches

When my heart

And the world-heart play

The earth-transformation-game. ```

37065

```

Desire has the capacity

To please the mind. ```

37066

```

Aspiration has the capacity

To please not only the heart,

But even God.

```

37067

```

Every day

God invites me to eat

His Heart’s Protection-Tree-Fruits.

```

37068

```

Anything that my heart does

Is always connected

With the Smiles of Heaven.

```

37069

```

The mind is self-contradiction:

On the one hand,

It says it does not need God’s Love;

On the other hand,

It is terribly afraid of God’s indifference.

```

37070

```

Peace is everywhere,

But it is most powerful

In a silence-heart.

```

37071

```

We make our Lord terribly sad

When we are satisfied

With happiness limited.

```

37072

```

God tells me

That my surrender to His Will

Is His Victory-Armour

Incomparable. ```

37073

```

God tells me

That among the inner beauties,

Devotion-beauty is by far

The most significant. ```

37074

```

Our love of God

Must increase every day

Without fail.

```

37075

```

God does not want me

To hide my face.

He wants me to join Him

Along the road of Eternity. ```

37076

```

Devotion-tears

Are exceedingly

Pure.

```

37077

```

Surrender-smiles

Are invaluably

Sure.

```

37078

```

Devotion-tears

Most soulfully clasp

God’s Feet.

```

37079

```

Surrender-smiles

Most eagerly devour

God’s Heart.

```

37080

```

Devotion-tears

Breathe in God’s Breath

As slowly as possible.

```

37081

```

Surrender-smiles

Breathe out God’s Breath

As fast as possible.

```

37082

```

Nectar-delight

Is another name

For devotion-tears.

```

37083

```

Perfection-discovery

Is another name

For surrender-smiles.

```

37084

```

Every day

My heart bathes

In the newness-sunrise.

```

37085

```

While walking

With your Lord Supreme,

Do not carry

Anxiety and worry-burdens

With you.

```

37086

```

My Lord,

I wish to remain

A God-hungry heart

All the time. ```

37087

```

My Lord’s Thunder-Drum

And His Flute-Melodies

My heart equally loves.

```

37088

```

I was born

To go far beyond

Impossibility-confines.

```

37089

```

God wants my gratitude-heart

To be the golden bridge

Between earth-cries

And Heaven-Smiles. ```

37090

```

May my heart’s

Purity-breath

Ceaselessly climb.

```

37091

```

When I am most sincerely happy,

God invites me

To accompany Him.

```

37092

```

I must make

My heart’s aspiration-flames

Divinely pure

And supremely strong. ```

37093

```

I am all ready

To smash

My attachment-bondage.

```

37094

```

The ancient

Aspiration-heart

I have.

```

37095

```

The modern

Dedication-hands

I need.

```

37096

```

My life cannot be complete

Without my heart’s sweetness

And my life’s selflessness.

```

37097

```

Surrender knows no bargain —

It does not believe in

Loss and gain.

```

37098

```

The disobedience-road-traveller

Soon meets with

“No entry.”

```

37099

```

My God-deception

God forgives. ```

37100

```

My self-deception,

Alas,

Who can and who will forgive?

```

37101

```

Silence sings and dances

Inside the breath

Of my deep meditation.

```

37102

```

My mind-secrets

I always secretly

Keep with me.

```

37103

```

My heart-secrets

I immediately see

With my Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

37104

```

My heart-sky

Is flooded

With rainbow-dawns.

```

37105

```

My deep meditations

Protect

My heart’s aspiration-flames.

```

37106

```

God is eagerly waiting

To see

My doubt-extinction-mind.

```

37107

```

The aspiring heart

Is never afraid of

Largeness and vastness.

```

37108

```

Happiness we do have

In the inner world,

But, alas, we do not claim it

To be our own. ```

37109

```

My guardian angel

Is very beautiful.

How I wish my guardian angel

To be extremely powerful

As well.

```

37110

```

When you cry

For outer prosperity,

God quite often sanctions.

```

37111

```

When you cry

For inner prosperity,

God says

That He can and He will

Fulfil your desire

Only at His choice Hour. ```

37112

```

A God-gratitude-heart

A very rare achievement.

```

37113

```

My meditation

Purifies my mind,

Intensifies my heart

And simplifies my life. ```

37114

```

Faith-lamp

In the aspiration-heart

Is sleeplessly needed.

```

37115

```

My heart and I

Know all our divine qualities

Come directly from God.

```

37116

```

The undivine forces

Stare at us

All the time.

```

37117

```

The divine forces

Care for us

Day in and day out.

```

37118

```

To kindle happiness-candles

Everywhere,

We came into the world.

```

37119

```

God wants everybody

To master

Forgiveness.

```

37120

```

A seeker’s sole aim

Is to attain

Perfect perfection.

```

37121

```

Because of God’s Grace infinite,

My heart-pond

Is never empty.

```

37122

```

I do not want to know

My destiny.

I want to remain on earth

Only to please God

In God’s own Way.

```

37123

```

There is nothing that I can do

Without my Lord’s

Express Approval.

```

37124

```

Devotion-happiness

We receive

From sleepless and breathless

Selflessness. ```

37125

```

“Never give up”

Is the only secret

To achieve fulfilment

In life. ```

37126

```

No matter how slow

My gratitude-train,

It will arrive

At God’s Heart-Station

At God’s choice Hour.

```

37127

```

My heart needs

Only one thing:

Constant oneness-expansion.

```

37128

```

Selflessness

Is something

That we all must cultivate.

```

37129

```

Insecurity

Is a most destructive thorn

In our heart-garden.

```

37130

```

May my life-boat ply

Between the courage-shore

And the patience-shore.

```

37131

```

Do not wait

Unnecessarily and indefinitely

To love and serve God —

It is already quite late! ```

37132

```

God does not want

The seeker’s will-power

Ever to rest.

```

37133

```

My personal will

Grows into God’s Will

When my unconditional surrender

Is absolutely complete. ```

37134

```

God’s Love for me is boundless,

Not because I am very great,

Not because I am very good,

But because God cannot live

Without loving

Me and my all. ```

37135

```

My Lord wants

The beauty and fragrance of hope

To remain immortal

In every heart. ```

37136

```

My Lord’s Compassion-Concern

I see all around me

All the time.

```

37137

```

Not cleverness, not smartness,

But soulfulness is all I need

To make progress

In my spiritual life. ```

37138

```

My Lord says to me:

“My child, express in action

What you are going to say

About Me.” ```

37139

```

In silence,

The real in me

Turns towards God.

```

37140

```

My happiness

Is my healthiest

Achievement.

```

37141

```

Joy is, indeed,

An inner achievement. ```

37142

```

We must choose

What our heart needs —

Not what our mind wants.

```

37143

```

The imagination-kite

My heart loves to fly

Every day.

```

37144

```

Life is so short, unimaginably short!

Therefore every second

Has to be seriously valued.

```

37145

```

My God-gratitude-heart

Embodies

My aspiration-breath

And my dedication-hands. ```

37146

```

To please God

Is the beginning of becoming

Another God.

```

37147

```

Alas,

Negativity does not have

A short life-span.

```

37148

```

No prayerful incident

In life

Is insignificant.

```

37149

```

My prayerful heart

Reverberates

With God-devotion.

```

37150

```

My Heavenward cries

Must always remain

Unfettered.

```

37151

```

Aeons and aeons ago,

My Lord and I established

Our oneness-heart-life.

```

37152

```

Beware

Of your self-doubt!

It can, at any moment, fracture

Your God-faith. ```

37153

```

At long last,

I am eagerly handing my life over

To my Lord’s Feet.

```

37154

```

How beautiful it is

To watch

The golden flames of my hope

Climbing! ```

37155

```

When aspiration-army

Does not march forward,

It immediately marches backward.

```

37156

```

Each second of my life

Must be imbued

With God-Compassion-awareness.

```

37157

```

Hard have I slammed today

My mind’s jealousy-door! ```

37158

```

Silence and peace

Are interdependent. ```

37159

```

O my heart,

Be not a fool!

God can never be indifferent

To you. ```

37160

```

Each seeker-traveller

Has to walk along

Eternity’s God-smiling

Progress-road. ```

37161

```

My Lord,

You have given me a heart,

But when will You give my heart

The capacity

To self-givingly melt

Into Your own Heart? ```

37162

```

The beauty of the purity-moon

Defies

Our imagination.

```

37163

```

Life is a continuous chain

Of remembrance

And forgetfulness.

```

37164

```

If Heaven’s Blessings are true,

Even so,

My heart’s aspiration-cries.

```

37165

```

When aspiration answers

God’s Call,

It needs no word.

```

37166

```

The desire-life

Is a false

Silver dream.

```

37167

```

The aspiration-life

Is a real

Golden reality.

```

37168

```

Each heart-bird

Has to be ready

To take Heaven-bound flight.

```

37169

```

The mind has to be

An optimist

Before it can ever be

A realist. ```

37170

```

The word ‘limitation’

Must not be found

In our heart-dictionary.

```

37171

```

Purity is

The beauty of beauties

In the inner world.

```

37172

```

God invites

Only a happiness-heart

To come and dance

At His Satisfaction-Shore. ```

37173

```

Whenever there is a fight

Between sound and silence,

Silence invariably wins.

```

37174

```

My Lord tells me

That it is not true

That only the soul

Was born to fly. ```

37175

```

My Lord tells me

That it is not true

That only the heart

Was born to cry. ```

37176

```

Only my budding divinity

Cries and weeps for God. ```

37177

```

Today

My life’s transformation

Has received an Invitation

From my Lord Supreme. ```

37178

```

No doubt-flood can ever take

My aspiration-heart away

From my Lord Supreme.

```

37179

```

We came into the world

Not to enjoy earth-pleasures,

Never.

```

37180

```

We came into the world

To garner Heaven-Treasures,

Ever.

```

37181

```

Day by day,

The spiritual life has to be

More inspiring and more interesting.

```

37182

```

When God wants to laugh

At our stupidity,

He summons Heaven

To join Him. ```

37183

```

At times, God and His Will

Enjoy mischievous pranks

At our expense.

```

37184

```

God always prefers

My aspiration-heart

To my calculation-mind.

```

37185

```

My Lord tells me

That my perfection in life

Is neither out of reach

Nor hidden. ```

37186

```

My God-love

Was my heart’s

Ancient discovery.

```

37187

```

My God-surrender

Is my life’s

Modern discovery.

```

37188

```

Each time

I see my Lord Supreme,

He blesses me

With His Forgiveness-Feast. ```

37189

```

My Lord,

May I be allowed to remain

All the time

In Your Heart of Love. ```

37190

```

You do not have to walk

Into the future.

The future will come to give you

What it has and what it is. ```

37191

```

God wants me

To please Him

With my life’s progress-smiles.

```

37192

```

A God-pleasing discipline-life

Is a must

For all the seekers.

```

37193

```

Sweet are my life’s

Devotion-prayers. ```

37194

```

Pure are my heart’s

Devotion-meditations. ```

37195

```

My today’s prayers

Have the capacity

To strengthen

My tomorrow’s life. ```

37196

```

I look

All the time

At my God’s Feet.

```

37197

```

The more we ignore

The doubting mind,

The sooner we will be able

To arrive

At our Destination.

```

37198

```

Each fleeting moment

Of my life

I must consecrate

To the Will of my Lord Supreme. ```

37199

```

In every situation,

My Lord wants me to take

Express Advice from Him.

```

37200

```

Soulfulness-prayers grow

From a simplicity-mind

And a purity-heart.

```

37201

```

The mind

Rarely receives

When God gives something.

```

37202

```

The heart

Readily and eagerly receives

Everything God wants to give.

```

37203

```

We can truly love ourselves

Only by claiming God

As our own, very own.

```

37204

```

I need aspiration

To feed

My heart-flames.

```

37205

```

I need devotion

To feed

My life-tears.

```

37206

```

My love of God

Has dispersed,

One by one,

All the clouds

Of my mind-sky.

```

37207

```

A oneness-heart

Is by far

The best freedom.

```

37208

```

Each silence-moment

Expedites

Our inner progress.

```

37209

```

A God-lover dwells

In the secret Heart

Of God.

```

37210

```

A God-server lives

In the sacred Breath

Of God.

```

37211

```

No more shall I allow myself

To be attacked constantly

By ignorance-night-forces.

```

37212

```

May the confidence-light

Of my soul

Enter into my God-loving heart.

```

37213

```

My self-admiring mind

And my God-loving heart

Never meet.

```

37214

```

A life empty of hope-seeds

Can never be

A God-fulfilling promise.

```

37215

```

Do not look at the gift,

But look at the gift-giver,

To make yourself

Unimaginably happy. ```

37216

```

No matter how high the mountain peak,

A sincere seeker feels and knows

That it is within his easy reach.

```

37217

```

The mind’s attachment-thorns

Must be separated

From the heart-flower.

```

37218

```

Love silence.

Silence has the capacity

To give you everything.

```

37219

```

God is my dearest

And nearest Relative;

He is not just remotely related to me.

```

37220

```

My aspiration-heart

Must never be empty

Of Heaven-climbing flames.

```

37221

```

How will I ever be able

To express

The beauty of the twinkling stars

In my heart-sky? ```

37222

```

Each aspiration-cry

Strengthens

My heart.

```

37223

```

We must invoke

Our higher Self

To illumine

Our lower self. ```

37224

```

Every day

I am eager for Your Manifestation

In and through me,

My Lord. ```

37225

```

Obstacles are not needed

To make progress,

But if they come,

We must immediately try

To surmount them.

```

37226

```

Without a life of courage

And a heart of compassion,

We cannot make very fast progress

In the spiritual life. ```

37227

```

The divine forces are always trying

To help us.

But we are not doing the right thing —

We are not invoking them. ```

37228

```

Where is Heaven,

If not in the silence-smile

Of my heart?

```

37229

```

My Lord tells me

That His Joy is complete

Only when I take Him

As my only Friend. ```

37230

```

A oneness-life

Is founded upon

A mind of inspiration

And a life of dedication. ```

37231

```

We came into the world

Not to hide from God,

But to ride

In God’s golden Chariot. ```

37232

```

Spirituality is ever-new.

It is not merely ancient. ```

37233

```

Spirituality is not austerity.

Far from it! ```

37234

```

I please God

Only when I sing with my heart,

And not with just words.

```

37235

```

We are at once

The soulful children of Heaven

And the beautiful children of earth.

```

37236

```

Without meditation

We can never climb up

The stairs of the higher worlds.

```

37237

```

The language of the heart

Has come into existence

From Love.

```

37238

```

Spirituality

Knows no exit. ```

37239

```

From meditation,

The human in me

Expects joy.

```

37240

```

From meditation,

The divine in me

Expects peace.

```

37241

```

Words

Are very cheap,

Indeed!

```

37242

```

Actions

Are very expensive,

Indeed!

```

37243

```

O ignorance,

You are overestimating yourself.

You can never uproot

My aspiration-tree. ```

37244

```

My heart has learnt

Thousands of God-songs

To please Him

At least in one way. ```

37245

```

Each God-song

Of my heart

My Lord proudly treasures.

```

37246

```

My outer God-disobedience

Makes my heart sad. ```

37247

```

My inner God-disobedience

Makes my soul furious. ```

37248

```

God the Mother

Knows my nickname. ```

37249

```

God the Father

Knows my proper name. ```

37250

```

God the Lover

Feels my heart. ```

37251

```

Alas,

You take your expectation

As something

You rightly deserve. ```

37252

```

God comes to me

In hell

As an Adviser.

```

37253

```

God comes to me

In Heaven

As a Companion.

```

37254

```

There comes a time

When disobedience cannot sleep,

Cannot breathe.

```

37255

```

My desire-life

Cries for

God the Power.

```

37256

```

My aspiration-life

Cries for

God the Beloved Supreme.

```

37257

```

God is extremely proud of

Even an iota

Of self-sacrifice.

```

37258

```

When I thirst for Light,

My Lord gives me Light,

But also Delight.

```

37259

```

The seeker’s mind

Cannot separate itself

From untold sufferings.

```

37260

```

The seeker’s heart

Takes suffering

As a God-ordained experience.

```

37261

```

A non-seeker’s mind

Is completely in love

With the desire-world.

```

37262

```

A seeker’s heart

Is soulfully in love

With the aspiration-world.

```

37263

```

A seeker’s soul

Is ceaselessly in love

With the illumination-world.

```

37264

```

A life of courage

Is not enough. ```

37265

```

A life of God-surrender

Is enough,

More than enough.

```

37266

```

God the Commander

Commands me. ```

37267

```

God the Lover

Awakens me. ```

37268

```

Desire-life

Is nothing short of

A storm-tossed life.

```

37269

```

Aspiration-life

Is nothing short of

God-experience

At every moment. ```

37270

```

May my devotion-song

Uninterruptedly and indefinitely breathe

In the Heart of my Beloved Supreme.

```

37271

```

The desire-life

Begs and begs and begs

For things mundane.

```

37272

```

The aspiration-life

Soars and soars and soars

In the Heart-Sky

Of our Lord Supreme. ```

37273

```

Man prays

Only when he is attacked

By danger.

```

37274

```

The mind

Has never any time

To listen to God.

```

37275

```

The heart has all the time

To listen to God

And please God

At every moment. ```

37276

```

My life

I claim

To be mine.

```

37277

```

My heart

I claim

To be my Lord Supreme’s.

```

37278

```

We all are victims

Of frustration-anger. ```

37279

```

We all do have the capacity

To free ourselves

From the mind’s pitch-dark

Bondage-night. ```

37280

```

My heart directly receives

From my soul

God-pleasing sweetness-melodies.

```

37281

```

My mind cries

For its own leadership. ```

37282

```

My heart cries

For the leadership

Of God’s Eye.

```

37283

```

A oneness-heart

Knows no foreigner. ```

37284

```

The word ‘will’

Gives me

Enormous strength.

```

37285

```

God wants me to bow

Only to Him

And nobody else.

```

37286

```

I am aspiring to become

The lamp

Of Mother Earth

And the sun

Of Father Heaven.

```

37287

```

If we do not dive

Deep within the inner world,

We cannot survive.

```

37288

```

At long last,

My silence-heart is blossoming

In God’s own Way.

```

37289

```

What I need

Is an action-meditation

To transform my entire life.

```

37290

```

God’s Eye

Sees within. ```

37291

```

God’s Mind

Sees without. ```

37292

```

God’s Heart

Sees all-where. ```

37293

```

To prevent

Our aspiration-downfall,

We must remain fully vigilant

On the strength of our God-crying heart. ```

37294

```

Aspiration-flames

Awaken my heart. ```

37295

```

Dedication-drops

Gladden my life. ```

37296

```

To minimise

My desire-cries

Is to maximise

My aspiration-smiles. ```

37297

```

Desire-indulgence

My life was. ```

37298

```

Aspiration-abundance

I have grown into. ```

37299

```

When God’s golden Voice

Is not my choice,

My life and I become

Totally worthless and useless. ```

37300

```

An empty mind

In the spiritual life

Is a supreme achievement.

```

37301

```

What is God’s most favourite Message?

“Wake up! Give up!

Give up everything bad

To Me!” ```

37302

```

My acceptance of the outer world

Entirely depends on

The Advice of my Inner Pilot.

```

37303

```

The beauty

That I see

Cannot satisfy me.

```

37304

```

The beauty

That I feel

Cannot fulfil me.

```

37305

```

I want to grow into

The beauty

Founded upon God-duty.

```

37306

```

Alas,

My unaspiring mind

Does not value

My most haunting melodies! ```

37307

```

As I know that I am the owner

Of my outer life,

Even so, I feel

That my Lord Supreme is the Owner

Of my inner life.

```

37308

```

I shall not stop crying and weeping

Until my entire being is melted

By the Touch

Of my Lord’s Compassion-Eye. ```

37309

```

To love God

Is, indeed,

A matter of stupendous joy.

```

37310

```

To be loved by God

Is, indeed,

A matter of momentous pride.

```

37311

```

Every day

My Lord Supreme blesses

Most compassionately

The tower of my aspiration-heart. ```

37312

```

My soul wants me

To see, feel and become

The supreme beauty

Of the divine tapestry. ```

37313

```

It is very hard to discover

Even one single aspiration-flame

In the unaspiring mind.

```

37314

```

Talent-achievements

Are not the result

Of our outer actions.

```

37315

```

Talent-achievements

Come from the inner awakening

Of the God-loving heart.

```

37316

```

Full mastery over the outer life

Can never come into existence

From outer skills,

But from the utmost unconditional

God-dependence-surrender-life.

```

37317

```

A lotus-heart

Is beautiful, extremely beautiful,

Plus fruitful,

When it is devotedly placed

At the Feet of the Lord Supreme.

```

37318

```

My curiosity-mind killed me

Many years ago.

But my Lord, out of His infinite Bounty,

Has given me a new mind,

Genuinely to search for Him

Here, there and all-where. ```

37319

```

The ocean waves

Can wash my feet, my legs

And my entire body.

Again, the ocean waves

Can make my heart dance

In perfect tune

With the Will of my Lord Supreme.

```

37320

```

The outer beauty

At times hurts us. ```

37321

```

The inner beauty

Never hurts us —

It always charms us.

```

37322

```

While I am enjoying

The beauty of my heart,

My Lord comes and tells me:

“You fool! It is high time for you

To become the fragrance of your soul!”

```

37323

```

When I want to go beyond my heart,

I see that my heart-bird

Comes out from within my body

And helps me fly in Infinity’s Sky. ```

37324

```

I love equally

My body’s tortoise-speed

And

My heart’s deer-speed. ```

37325

```

God tells us

We can easily complete our life’s journey

With our God-given capacities,

Instead of our self-acquired capacities,

Which are next to nothing.

```

37326

```

The body-exercises

Make me very strong. ```

37327

```

The mind-exercises

Make me self-disciplined. ```

37328

```

The heart-exercises

Make me universal. ```

37329

```

My God-dependence-heart

Is my life’s

Ignorance-independence-joy.

```

37330

```

Run fast! Fear not!

The Goal itself will come

To inspire you

And to aspire in and through you. ```

37331

```

My Lord asked me if I want

Outer wealth or inner wealth.

I immediately said, “Inner wealth.”

My Lord asked me

What inner wealth means.

I said, “I do not know.”

My Lord said to me:

“My child, inner wealth

Is the sleepless and breathless

Remembrance

Of My Compassion-Eye

And Forgiveness-Heart.” ```

37332

```

Life is not

An idle imagination. ```

37333

```

Life is the heart

Of Divinity’s Reality. ```

37334

```

At times,

God may allow us to escape

From His Eye,

But He will never allow us to escape

From His Heart.

```

37335

```

Life has only one question:

Do I really want to be

God’s supremely chosen child?

```

37336

```

Life and death have one message:

The beauty and fragrance of peace

Must spread

Here, there and all-where. ```

37337

```

I do not know where to go,

I do not know why to go,

But I do know that my Lord Supreme

Has a very special Plan chalked out

For me.

```

37338

```

The colour green gives me

Enthusiasm, dynamism

And the beauty of

Ever-blossoming newness. ```

37339

```

The colour blue tells me:

“My child, just think of me,

Play with me —

And I shall bring Infinity’s Bliss

Into your heart.”

```

37340

```

The colour red tells me:

“My child, you need me

For the purification of your mind —

For the destruction of the uncomely things

That do not want to change.”

```

37341

```

The colour white tells me:

“My child, the purity that you need

In your mind

I shall give you in abundant measure.

The insecurity, jealousy, doubt

And suspicion that you have —

I am going to wipe them out for good!”

```

37342

```

The colour gold tells me:

“My child, your life-breath

Is not made of dust.

Your life-breath is made of gold —

My Immortality’s Gold.

You must treasure your ever-awakening,

God-climbing and God-fulfilling

Life-breath.” ```

37343

```

The outer light

Can never illumine

The age-old darkness of the mind.

```

37344

```

The outer light is no match

For the mind’s

Abysmal abyss-reality-existence.

```

37345

```

The inner light

Does not speak —

It is always in action.

```

37346

```

The mind does not understand

Precisely because

The mind does not want to understand.

```

37347

```

The heart is far beyond

The domain of understanding.

The heart identifies spontaneously

With Reality, outer and inner. ```

37348

```

Service,

According to the mind-written dictionary,

Is a noun,

But service,

According to God’s Heart-Dictionary,

Is a verb —

Service itself,

Always in the form of divine activities. ```

37349

```

When I do not know something about God,

And I tell myself sincerely

That I do not know this particular thing

About God,

God immediately tells me:

“My child, I am all for you!

I have come to your rescue.”

```

37350

```

‘No’, ‘never’ and any kind of negativity,

At any stage of the spiritual life,

Are destructive forces.

Negativity is not allowed

In the spiritual life!

```

37351

```

It seems a God-harbinger

Always comes

Far ahead of his time.

```

37352

```

The moment we fail to appreciate

The good qualities of others,

We descend most deplorably

In our aspiration-life. ```

37353

```

Life can be made beautiful —

Divinely beautiful and supremely beautiful —

Only by virtue of one thing:

Self-offering. ```

37354

```

Give and take —

Give what you have and what you are;

Take only what you absolutely need.

```

37355

```

When God sees me dreaming

Of His infinite Beauty,

He starts dancing

And brings His own Divinity’s new Horizon

To me.

```

37356

```

When I see God dreaming,

I get Infinity’s Delight.

When He wakes up, I ask God:

“My Lord, what were You dreaming of?”

“My child, I was dreaming of

Your immediate future,

When you will unburden

My universal Responsibility

To a great extent.”

```

37357

```

Mother Nature

Is the only God-creation-reality

That does not expect anything in return.

She just gives and gives unconditionally —

Unreservedly she gives,

With no expectation-hope. ```

37358

```

I have left far behind me

Thought-skies.

I am now enjoying

My immortality’s self-amorous Reality. ```

37359

```

My Lord, how can I please You

At every moment?

“Just think that you can and you shall.

Then you will see you are half the way

To pleasing and fulfilling Me

In My own Way.” ```

37360

```

The morning sky

Brings me

An ever-increasing hope.

```

37361

```

The evening sky

Brings me

An ever-spreading peace.

```

37362

```

They say, “Art for art’s sake.”

I say, “Art is not for art’s sake —

Art is for God’s sake.”

```

37363

```

When we say, “Art for art’s sake,”

Our mind binds

Both the Creator and the creation,

All at once. ```

37364

```

When we say, “Art for God’s sake,”

We connect our art

With God the Infinite, God the Eternal

And God the Immortal.

Then we see Infinity, Eternity

And Immortality —

This triune Reality —

Conversing, singing and dancing

Right before our vision-eye.

```

37365

```

My Lord, if I think of You,

Is it not a way of loving You?

“No, My child, no.

To think of Me is like

Coming to the Ocean of Reality.

To love Me is to swim across

The Ocean of Reality,

For the imminent welcome

Of the Golden Shore.”

```

37366

```

I have two inner places

To live:

My prayer-temple

And my meditation-home. ```

37367

```

No more

Can ignorance-days and nights

Catch me!

```

37368

```

The disobedience-mind

Sooner or later

Must repent.

```

37369

```

My aspiration-heart

Is constantly guarded

By God’s Compassion

And Affection. ```

37370

```

My Lord,

Never withdraw Your Smile

From my heart!

```

37371

```

“My child,

Never withdraw your heart-tears,

For I love them so dearly!”

```

37372

```

God does not mind

Giving shelter

Even to our countless imperfections.

```

37373

```

I am desperately trying to be

Absolutely true,

In both my inner life and my outer life,

To the Will of God. ```

37374

```

The doubting mind

Does not care for

God’s Footprints.

```

37375

```

The aspiring heart

Sleeplessly and breathlessly cares for

God’s Footprints.

```

37376

```

A frustration-mind

Sees and feels everything

In a negative way.

```

37377

```

Do not try to hide

Your weeping eyes

And bleeding heart

From God. ```

37378

```

Nothing is impossible

For the cries of the heart

And the smiles of the soul

To achieve. ```

37379

```

God-satisfaction

In God’s own Way

Is not an impossible task.

```

37380

```

If you are a true God-seeker,

Your sole aim

Is to spread God’s Name

Here, there and all-where. ```

37381

```

The mind loves to be

A world-doubter. ```

37382

```

The vital loves to be

A world-shaker. ```

37383

```

The heart loves to be

A world-lover. ```

37384

```

The soul loves to be

A world-helper. ```

37385

```

I love to be

A world-server. ```

37386

```

Each new God-Dream

Must be appreciated,

Admired and loved

By my aspiration-heart. ```

37387

```

Where is the difference

Between ignorance-sleep

And God-forgetfulness?

No difference whatsoever. ```

37388

```

Unless and until

Forgiveness reigns supreme,

This world of ours

Will never be able

To see and feel

The life of harmony. ```

37389

```

It is easier to feel

The unseen Heart of God

Than to see

The Face of God. ```

37390

```

God is God’s smiling Face

When I am extremely serious

About my inner Godward race.

```

37391

```

In the outer world,

I am shocked to see

That truth has a very short life.

```

37392

```

It is a great privilege

Even to have a fleeting glimpse

Of our Lord’s Lotus-Feet.

```

37393

```

Command me, my Lord Supreme —

Not affectionately,

But with all the Power at Your Command —

To be of service to You. ```

37394

```

There was a time

When I lived for my success-life,

But now I only live

For my progress-heart. ```

37395

```

Alas, will the red-letter day ever dawn

In my life

To claim my Lord Supreme

As my own, very own? ```

37396

```

Be as young as your heart —

Then God will tell you everything

And will do everything for you.

```

37397

```

When my Lord looks at me

With His Compassion-flooded Eye,

Immediately my entire being dances

In supreme ecstasy. ```

37398

```

My soul embodies

The galaxies of bliss. ```

37399

```

My heart embodies

The galaxies of love. ```

37400

```

One thing I want

To forget immediately —

I was a God-failure.

```

37401

```

One thing I want

To remember eternally —

My Beloved Supreme

Loves me self-givingly,

Whether I even think of Him or not.

```

37402

```

The body can remain in silence

And do nothing. ```

37403

```

The heart can remain in silence,

But it can still do everything

To please God in His own Way.

```

37404

```

I love the beauty

Of the morning sun. ```

37405

```

I love the tranquillity

Of the evening stars. ```

37406

```

The mind ignores

God’s Heart. ```

37407

```

The heart implores

God’s Eye. ```

37408

```

My life-stories

God does not

Read.

```

37409

```

My heart-songs

God gladly and proudly

Sings.

```

37410

```

Silence

Is the beauty and fragrance

Of Wisdom-Light.

```

37411

```

To please God,

What I need

Is a constantly self-giving life.

```

37412

```

We start

At the aspiration-shore

And end

At the realisation-shore. ```

37413

```

Without soulfulness,

Eagerness and selflessness,

My God-manifestation-attempts

Will be futile. ```

37414

```

To climb up to Heaven

Every day,

I must feed my heart’s

Aspiration-flames. ```

37415

```

We cannot measure

The beauty, purity and fragrance

Of an aspiring heart.

```

37416

```

The Master

And his unfathomable compassion

Are always found together.

```

37417

```

Aspiration and devotion

Are my two

Eternally self-giving friends.

```

37418

```

I must value deeply

My Master’s outer presence. ```

37419

```

I must value

My Master’s inner presence

Infinitely more.

```

37420

```

My life’s

God-loving moments

Are divinely and supremely precious.

```

37421

```

God-dreams

Help us to run

Straight to God’s Heart-Palace.

```

37422

```

May my heart

Sleeplessly rest

At my Lord’s Lotus-Feet.

```

37423

```

My Lord’s Eye

Solves

All my outer problems.

```

37424

```

My Lord’s Heart

Solves

All my inner problems.

```

37425

```

My Lord has given me

A new hope

And I have given my Lord

A new promise. ```

37426

```

Insecurity

Can never be

Your true friend.

```

37427

```

Insecurity

Can be

Your absolutely worst enemy.

```

37428

```

The human eyes look,

But cannot see

Anything.

```

37429

```

The divine Eye does not look,

For it sees and knows everything

At its express Command.

```

37430

```

May my self-offering

To the Will of my Lord Supreme

Never cease even for a fleeting second.

```

37431

```

When I obey God’s Will,

An unimaginable thrill

Captures my entire being.

```

37432

```

The inner eye knows

Not only who God is

And where God is,

But it can even show us God,

The real God.

```

37433

```

There can be no difference

Between the hope of the outer life

And the promise of the inner world.

```

37434

```

Immensely beautiful

Are

My God-searching eyes.

```

37435

```

Exceedingly soulful

My God-pleasing heart.

```

37436

```

God’s Compassion-Eye

Sprints

From heart to heart.

```

37437

```

My aspiration-heart-flames

Have been in existence

Since the beginning of Time.

```

37438

```

I think of God,

I pray to God,

I meditate on God,

Not out of any obligation,

But out of my God-loving heart’s

Supreme necessity. ```

37439

```

My Lord, where are You?

Ignorance-clouds above my head

Are ruthlessly threatening me!

```

37440

```

Today

God wants me to watch

His Cosmic Game,

But tomorrow without fail

He will ask me to take part.

```

37441

```

The human life is so strange.

This moment it is flooded with promise;

Next moment, darkness covers life

And makes life helpless, hopeless

And useless.

```

37442

```

Peace of mind I get

Only when I sincerely feel

I am not at all important.

```

37443

```

The man-made house

I sincerely admire. ```

37444

```

The God-made Home

I love to live in. ```

37445

```

There should be no specific time

To worship God —

God-worship has to be

Spontaneous and ceaseless. ```

37446

```

The Creator is extremely unfortunate.

Wherever He goes,

He meets with the ingratitude-life

Of the world. ```

37447

```

Progress and joy

Are interchangeable. ```

37448

```

Aspiration-empty

The human mind is

Quite often.

```

37449

```

The mind and doubt —

I must disconnect them. ```

37450

```

When my heart eagerly sings

With God,

God’s Joy knows no bounds.

```

37451

```

The inner door

Is always open —

It is we who have to enter!

```

37452

```

Desire-beauty-city

Cannot attract

A real seeker.

```

37453

```

There is no dearth

Of choice

On earth.

```

37454

```

This moment,

Joy drives

The progress-car.

```

37455

```

Next moment,

Progress drives

The joy-car.

```

37456

```

Victory within

Announces

Glory without.

```

37457

```

God’s Eye

Knows the right Hour

For me.

```

37458

```

God’s Heart

Makes the right Choice

For me.

```

37459

```

Expectation

Is a foreign word

In the heart-of-love-dictionary.

```

37460

```

Love

Stretched a long distance

Becomes forgiveness.

```

37461

```

Love covers

The undivine in us. ```

37462

```

Love awakens

The divine in us. ```

37463

```

God did not create

Ignorance-night

For us to live in —

We chose ignorance-night

To be our dwelling.

```

37464

```

When I live in the desire-world,

God says to me:

“My child, enjoy yourself,

If that is what you want.” ```

37465

```

When I live in the aspiration-world,

God says to me:

“My child, enjoy Me

To your heart’s content.” ```

37466

```

When I do not aspire,

Earthly mud and clay

Cover my eyes and face.

```

37467

```

When I aspire,

The Light of the Unknown

Shines on my eyes and face.

```

37468

```

My heart-tears

And my Lord’s Smiles

Complete my life.

```

37469

```

My earthly thoughts

Add to

My ignorance-life.

```

37470

```

My Heavenly thoughts

Subtract from

My ignorance-life.

```

37471

```

This moment,

Ignorance lives inside us

In pindrop silence.

```

37472

```

Next moment,

Ignorance can roar

Like a lion.

```

37473

```

Desire

Can permanently last

Even in our God-searching mind.

```

37474

```

Desire-goals

Are constantly shifting. ```

37475

```

Aspiration-goals

Remain eternally

At their respective places.

```

37476

```

The human in us

Came into the world

To do great things.

```

37477

```

The divine in us

Came into the world

To do good things.

```

37478

```

The human in us

Likes

Mind-supremacy.

```

37479

```

The divine in us

Loves

Heart-intimacy.

```

37480

```

Even my undivine mind feels

That there shall come a time

When it will be compelled to aspire.

```

37481

```

It is I who have to decide

Whether I need my desire-life

Or my aspiration-heart.

```

37482

```

Wisdom-path-deviation

Is the height

Of ignorance.

```

37483

```

Newness

All around.

```

37484

```

Fulness

Deep within.

```

37485

```

When I make fun

Of my Lord Beloved Supreme,

He just roars and roars

With laughter. ```

37486

```

Positive feelings

Can compel negative thoughts

To starve.

```

37487

```

How can you make others’ lives happy

When you have not made

Your own heart happy?

```

37488

```

Self-doubt

Is undoubtedly

The greatest challenge in life.

```

37489

```

Each life

Is a unique instrument

For God to play

In a unique way. ```

37490

```

Patience

Is an unparalleled

Prayer and meditation.

```

37491

```

Stillness in activity

Brings about success

Sooner than at once.

```

37492

```

A stupid fellow

An unceasing talker.

```

37493

```

A wise person

An undivided listener.

```

37494

```

By nature,

Time is not short.

We make time short

By rushing and hurrying. ```

37495

```

The outer world

Teaches me. ```

37496

```

The inner world

Nourishes me. ```

37497

```

O my mind,

Do not waste time.

Get ready to study

At the school of oneness-life. ```

37498

```

My fear means

My Lord is somewhere,

Missing.

```

37499

```

My every move

Must invoke

The Presence of God.

```

37500

```

Dare I must to establish

God’s complete Victory

Here on earth.

```

37501

```

Two minds

Are apt

To contradict.

```

37502

```

Two hearts

Are apt

To relate.

```

37503

```

My heart-door

Is all ready to open

To the light of the future.

```

37504

```

My mind-door

Is terribly afraid of

The light of the future.

```

37505

```

The human in us

Deals with

Meagre possibilities.

```

37506

```

The divine in us

Is blessed

Not only with infinite possibilities,

But also with inevitabilities. ```

37507

```

Nothing can remain

The same forever

In the desire-world.

```

37508

```

Everything

In the desire-world

Has a very short breath.

```

37509

```

My Lord blesses my human ears

With

His divine Messages.

```

37510

```

Do not think of a saint’s past,

But think of a sinner’s future —

Bright, brighter, brightest!

```

37511

```

My Lord,

Your fleeting Smile

Is a most precious Boon

To my life. ```

37512

```

Supremacy-leadership

Everybody desires. ```

37513

```

Intimacy-oneness —

Only if you dare! ```

37514

```

My cheerfulness

Is the source

Of my strength.

```

37515

```

Flowers open

To the outer sun. ```

37516

```

My tears open

To the inner sun. ```

37517

```

I am so happy that my past

Has no capacity

To interest me.

```

37518

```

I am so happy

That I have brought down

The future

Into my today’s life. ```

37519

```

Real joy comes from

Acceptance of the world,

And not from

Renunciation of the world. ```

37520

```

Love and live

And live and love

Each moment

To the fullest. ```

37521

```

Friendship is, indeed,

A God-bestowed Blessing. ```

37522

```

Our vision-eye can become

Larger than

The mighty ocean.

```

37523

```

If you cherish loneliness,

Then inner poverty

Will loom large.

```

37524

```

Life experiences

Only two things:

The ugliness of falsehood

And

The beauty of Truth.

```

37525

```

Procrastination

Can never be

Our true friend.

```

37526

```

Concentration, meditation

And contemplation:

All three brother-friends

Are needed

To lead us on the way

To God-realisation. ```

37527

```

The human in us

Loves to have

Slaves.

```

37528

```

The divine in us

Loves to have

Companions.

```

37529

```

The rising sun and the setting sun

Inspire my heart to become one

With Mother Nature.

```

37530

```

A meditation-heart

Has to develop the capacity

To fly

In Infinity’s Sky. ```

37531

```

My Lord Supreme

Will never be satisfied

Unless and until He can claim me

To be His own, very own. ```

37532

```

Sooner or later, the aspiring heart

Will be able to embody

God’s Delight

In infinite measure. ```

37533

```

The outer world vehemently attacks

The inner world,

But the inner world does not retaliate.

The inner world leaves everything

At the Feet of the Absolute Lord Supreme.

```

37534

```

To be an affectionate child of God,

The seeker has to cry,

Sleeplessly and breathlessly.

```

37535

```

There is not a single question

That God cannot answer,

But He prefers

To remain silent. ```

37536

```

The fountain-heart of bliss

Is only for those who have offered

Everything that they have and are

To God,

Cheerfully, unreservedly

And unconditionally. ```

37537

```

God speaks to us in whispers —

He thinks that is absolutely

The best way.

```

37538

```

May my love of my heart

Every day increase

And never fade.

```

37539

```

Aspiration-flames

Carry us high, very high,

To the Summit-Heights.

```

37540

```

Realisation-fire

Burns our age-old

Darkness-bondage-night.

```

37541

```

An iota of my selfless service

Gives my Lord Supreme

Abundant Delight.

```

37542

```

Thinkers and philosophers

Do not have a free access

To God’s Heart-Home,

But a God-seeker has. ```

37543

```

Everything has a God-Hour.

Before the God-Hour strikes,

Nothing divinely and supremely important

Can take place. ```

37544

```

The heart-tears

Purify us. ```

37545

```

The soul-smile

Transforms us. ```

37546

```

He who expects constantly

From the world

Is, indeed,

A poorer than the poorest beggar

In the inner world.

```

37547

```

My Lord wants me

To forget my past. ```

37548

```

No matter how bright and blissful

The past,

We must run towards

The ever-transcending Goal. ```

37549

```

Obedience

Empty of cheerfulness

Is not real obedience.

```

37550

```

The human in us

Is quite often fearful. ```

37551

```

The divine in us

Is always cheerful

And bountiful.

```

37552

```

The transformation

Of human nature

Is still a far cry.

```

37553

```

When the outer world performs

All its duties,

Smiling and dancing

The inner world sings

All the glories of the outer world.

```

37554

```

Every day

My Lord Supreme measures

The beauty of my aspiration-heart.

```

37555

```

Every day

My Lord Supreme measures

The length of my dedication-life.

```

37556

```

The dedication-life-river

Must reach

The Ocean of the Golden Shore

To receive its Blessings. ```

37557

```

The mind openly declares

That it does not need

The compassion-eye

And the forgiveness-heart

Of a God-lover.

```

37558

```

A true God-lover

Can never be bound

By the fetters of ignorance-night.

```

37559

```

God wants to take care of

Our outer hunger and our inner hunger

At the same time.

```

37560

```

My heart needs

The flower-beauty. ```

37561

```

My life needs

The God-ordained duty. ```

37562

```

There is always

A divine Power

That waits for us.

```

37563

```

When the hostile forces are successful

With the mind,

They immediately attack

The beauty, fragrance and ecstasy

Of the inner world.

```

37564

```

The human life

Cries for

God’s constant attention.

```

37565

```

The divine life

Cries only for

God’s express Arrival.

```

37566

```

I came into the world

Not to see the beauty of the world.

I came into the world

To be the world,

With all its sorrows and tears.

```

37567

```

Each moment

A God-pleasing adventure.

```

37568

```

My life-story

My Beloved Supreme reads

And corrects all the time.

```

37569

```

My heart-songs

God enjoys,

Both secretly and sacredly.

```

37570

```

When our hearts

Are flooded with tears,

God-realisation, God-revelation

And God-manifestation

Can never be a far cry.

```

37571

```

My Lord,

You have given me

The greatness-height.

```

37572

```

My Lord,

You have given me

The goodness-depth.

```

37573

```

My Lord,

I need now only one thing:

Oneness —

My unconditional oneness with You. ```

37574

```

God does not mind at all

When we speak ill of Him. ```

37575

```

God does mind

When we deliberately try to ignore Him

And forget Him.

```

37576

```

The waves of ecstasy-thrill

Become our possessions

When we are ready to disown

Our uncomely mind. ```

37577

```

Poor God,

He hopes and hopes that one day

We shall terminate our age-old friendship

With ignorance-night. ```

37578

```

God sheds bitter Tears

When we are afraid

Of His subtle Presence.

```

37579

```

God swims in the Ocean of Ecstasy

When we sincerely and unmistakably

Claim Him to be our only Own.

```

37580

```

The hostile forces

Make the outer world

Unthinkably dangerous.

```

37581

```

The divine forces

Make the inner world

Unimaginably beautiful,

Soulful and fruitful. ```

37582

```

Day in and day out

We love to play

With fleeting time.

```

37583

```

Eternal Time

Waits and waits

For God’s choice Hour to strike,

For the betterment and enlightenment

Of the world.

```

37584

```

I embark on the outer journey

For the sake

Of enjoyment.

```

37585

```

I embark on the inner journey

For the enlightenment

Of my entire being.

```

37586

```

The world knows

That from perfection we derive satisfaction,

But a day will dawn

When the world will come to know

That from satisfaction,

Perfection blossoms. ```

37587

```

Intensify your prayers,

Intensify your meditations,

If you want to see

Your soul-beauty-sunrise. ```

37588

```

Prayers and meditations

Have to be

As natural and spontaneous

As breathing. ```

37589

```

My heart thrives

When my God-fulfilment-eagerness

Grows.

```

37590

```

The capacity of aspiration

Is not only divinely precious,

But supremely rare.

```

37591

```

God’s Will has given me

A serious warning:

I must come out of

My self-styled mind-imprisonment. ```

37592

```

Each soul

Does have the capacity

To run

At the God-given pace. ```

37593

```

We all must be self-giving.

Alas,

We are seeking instead.

```

37594

```

We all must be seeking.

Alas,

We all like to watch, instead!

```

37595

```

Even if you are a below-average seeker,

Lose not hope!

There shall come a time

When God will turn you into

A superb seeker.

```

37596

```

My Lord tells me

That if I am prepared to come to Him

With no mind whatsoever,

Then He will give me the permission. ```

37597

```

Inside my heart

I see

A oneness-mountain.

```

37598

```

Inside my breath

I see

A sweetness-fountain.

```

37599

```

The early morning prayers

Must be

Newness, sweetness and fulness-prayers.

```

37600

```

Whatever I write

Must be about

God’s Self-Giving.

```

37601

```

Sorrow

Is attachment’s

Immediate neighbour.

```

37602

```

God’s Compassion

Walks here, there, everywhere

To remove

The sufferings of mankind. ```

37603

```

Sooner or later,

Mine has to be

An unconditional surrender-life.

```

37604

```

Excuse me, my mind,

My Lord

Is fast approaching me.

```

37605

```

The mind

Needs a microphone

To speak to the audience.

```

37606

```

The heart needs only whispers

To convey its messages,

And it is extremely effective.

```

37607

```

I was born to be

A truth-seeker, God-lover

And God-server.

```

37608

```

My life is in between

My Lord’s enthusiasm

And His encouragement.

```

37609

```

My heart,

Without my Lord’s

Compassion-Eye,

Is unthinkable. ```

37610

```

Alas,

Everything becomes tired

After some time,

But not the doubting mind. ```

37611

```

Miracles

Are destined to be forgotten

By the doubting mind.

```

37612

```

My heart’s gratitude-service

My Lord immediately

And proudly accepts.

```

37613

```

When it is a matter of

Succeeding in the spiritual life,

Half-heartedness is useless.

```

37614

```

My heart-garden

I keep ready

Only for my Lord’s Smile

To dance in. ```

37615

```

We create powerful obstacles

In our spiritual life

When we desire a reward

After we have rendered services. ```

37616

```

My Lord wants me

To walk in step with Him —

Not behind Him

And not ahead of Him. ```

37617

```

When I am brutally sincere

With myself,

I achieve a great many things

Absolutely significant. ```

37618

```

If the seeker’s life

Is not charged with determination,

Then he is bound to fail.

```

37619

```

When you come to God,

Come with a cheerful face

And not with a fearful heart.

```

37620

```

When we enter into

God’s Palace,

We see our souls

Are already there,

Waiting for us.

```

37621

```

My old desire-friend

I have discarded.

I have now replaced it

With a new friend:

Aspiration.

```

37622

```

If you look for

Easy victories,

Then your victories

Will be short-lived. ```

37623

```

Meditation

Is all about

Selflessness.

```

37624

```

My thoughts

Follow the Footprints

Of my Lord Supreme.

```

37625

```

Sleeplessly, breathlessly,

Self-givingly plus cheerfully

I await the Commands

Of my Lord Supreme. ```

37626

```

I place my feet on the ground

While walking.

God places His Feet inside my heart

And then walks along the road

Of my life-transformation.

```

37627

```

The mind knows

How to twist everything. ```

37628

```

The heart knows

How to love everything

And become everything.

```

37629

```

God has tried many, many times

To give me surrender-lessons.

Alas, neither He nor I

Have succeeded. ```

37630

```

Earthly faith

Is founded upon

Nothingness.

```

37631

```

The gratitude-heart-road

To God’s Home

Is extremely short.

```

37632

```

The silence of the soul

Teaches our heart

How to converse with God.

```

37633

```

The mind

Loves to know

World-secrecy.

```

37634

```

The heart

Loves

God-intimacy.

```

37635

```

Do not trust the world.

This moment it can say ‘yes’

And the very next moment it can say ‘no’,

In accordance with its fantasies. ```

37636

```

Happiness

Brightens

The mind.

```

37637

```

Happiness

Sweetens

The heart.

```

37638

```

Happiness

Enlightens

The life.

```

37639

```

Do not forget —

If you are not completely on God’s side,

God will forgive you,

But you will never be able

To forgive yourself.

```

37640

```

My tears and God’s Heart

Are again on speaking terms. ```

37641

```

If you want to become

A life-transformation-hero,

Then take the fleeting earthly time

Very seriously. ```

37642

```

One fleeting moment

Of my sincerity-heart

Can bring God down

Into my heart. ```

37643

```

Eagerness-speed

Is of paramount importance

To arrive at the Goal

At God’s choice Hour. ```

37644

```

I do love God —

Conditionally

Or unconditionally.

```

37645

```

Alas,

Where can I find

The beauty

Of a satisfaction-heart? ```

37646

```

Alas,

Where can I find

The fragrance

Of a perfection-life? ```

37647

```

Each new generation

Forgets the mighty contributions

Of previous generations

In trying to build

A better world.

```

37648

```

Most of us

Are frightened to death

When it comes to walking along

The God-surrender-road. ```

37649

```

God’s Heart

Proudly counts

My gratitude-heart-tears.

```

37650

```

God’s Eye,

Dancing,

Counts my service-life-smiles.

```

37651

```

Every day

God expects at least one

Sleeplessly self-giving heart.

```

37652

```

The thoughts

Of the outer world

Imprison my mind.

```

37653

```

The will

Of the inner world

Elevates my entire being.

```

37654

```

Aspiration

Has a special time

To soar —

In the small hours of the morning. ```

37655

```

Meditation

Has a special time

To dive —

In the twinkling skies of the evening. ```

37656

```

My Lord,

If You have one moment

Of spare time,

Please purify my thought-world. ```

37657

```

Prove that you are

A first-class seeker

By placing God first

In every detail

Of your wakeful hours.

```

37658

```

At every moment

God loves to see us

Transcending

Our Godward speed. ```

37659

```

Every day

Brings a new promise.

What is that promise?

God-satisfaction

In God’s own Way.

```

37660

```

The mind is nothing but

The tolerance

Of the heart.

```

37661

```

The heart is nothing but

The expectation-fulfilment

Of the soul.

```

37662

```

My God-dependence

And my God-reliance

God claims

As His own belongings. ```

37663

```

There are so many ways

To reach one’s goal.

I found my goal

By chanting the motto of my life:

“Never give up.”

```

37664

```

No God-realisation

Can ever be come-and-go. ```

37665

```

The devotion-heart-sunrise

Is unimaginably beautiful. ```

37666

```

The mind-limits

Are frightened to death

When they see the limitlessness

Of the soul. ```

37667

```

Aspiration

Does not stumble

When sincerity is active

And dynamic. ```

37668

```

The heart suffers

When the mind

Distrusts the heart.

```

37669

```

The mind suffers

When the heart

Avoids the mind.

```

37670

```

Nobody’s hope-boat

Actually sinks. ```

37671

```

The moment I shut my mind,

I see my Pilot

Singing and dancing

In my heart-garden. ```

37672

```

God-Presence-eyes

Are exceedingly beautiful. ```

37673

```

God-Absence-eyes

Bitterly weep. ```

37674

```

God-Presence-eyes

Embody the vastness-sky. ```

37675

```

God-Absence-eyes

Embody nothingness-blank. ```

37676

```

Insincerity,

No more will you be able

To govern me.

```

37677

```

My self-giving love

Sings and plays

With Infinity’s Smiles.

```

37678

```

Entrust yourself

Completely

To your Inner Pilot.

```

37679

```

The mind

An opinion-collector.

```

37680

```

The heart

A will-invoker.

```

37681

```

My heart was born

In goodness-soil. ```

37682

```

When we do not aspire,

We are nothing short of

Circus clowns.

```

37683

```

Detachment

Diminishes

Expectation-hunger.

```

37684

```

Oneness

Satisfaction unparalleled.

```

37685

```

No God-lover

Should ever shun

Responsibility.

```

37686

```

No inner poise,

No perfect choice. ```

37687

```

Patience

Not only starts

The game

But also continues and ends

The game.

```

37688

```

No aspiration-heart

Can ever be empty

Of beauty-blossoms.

```

37689

```

Humanity’s tolerance-need

Is urgent. ```

37690

```

Surrender

Precedes

Oneness-delight.

```

37691

```

Oneness-delight

Precedes

Fulness-perfection.

```

37692

```

Fulness-perfection

Precedes

God’s Transcendental Smile.

```

37693

```

When we pray and meditate

Sincerely and seriously,

We receive from God

His Sweetness-Embrace. ```

37694

```

Our aspiration-mountain

Will collapse

If we do not permanently place

Our hearts

At the Feet of our Lord Supreme.

```

37695

```

The impurity of his disciples

Gives the Master

A heart attack.

```

37696

```

Today

My Lord is uncovering

His Heart-Secrets for me.

```

37697

```

God is His Protection-Umbrella

On my way,

When I sleeplessly search

For Him. ```

37698

```

In the morning

I breathe in

My Lord’s Compassion-Breath.

```

37699

```

In the evening

I breathe out

My own gratitude-breath.

```

37700

```

My heart’s faith

In God

Has always been genuine.

```

37701

```

First God gives us love,

Then He makes it real,

Absolutely real.

```

37702

```

Never mistake

Mere action

For God-dedication.

```

37703

```

The inner God

Directs me. ```

37704

```

The outer God

Protects me. ```

37705

```

Insecurity

The mind has. ```

37706

```

Assurance

God is. ```

37707

```

First cry like a child,

Then dare like a giant. ```

37708

```

Every day

I live for my Lord’s

Smile-Blessings.

```

37709

```

My God-manifestation-hope

Depends on

The depth of my silence-heart.

```

37710

```

I live

Inside my Lord’s

Heart-Garden.

```

37711

```

I live not

Inside my

Mind-jungle.

```

37712

```

Eagerness and intensity

Champion

My life’s course.

```

37713

```

My life’s bird

Flies

Only on my heart-wings.

```

37714

```

My life’s every moment

Is created

Either by God’s Smile

Or by my stupidity-mind. ```

37715

```

The mind thinks

God-thoughts

Are nothing short of

Unnecessary burdens. ```

37716

```

The heart feels

All God-thoughts

Are Heaven-life-beauties

And Heaven-heart-fragrances. ```

37717

```

To discover God

Is to uncover

Our own divinity.

```

37718

```

I am

What I choose

To be.

```

37719

```

The human in us

Is constant

Self-creation.

```

37720

```

The divine in us

Is constant

God-creation.

```

37721

```

The mind-ruler-king

Has played its role

For a long time.

Now it has to be ousted. ```

37722

```

Each moment offers us

A limitless hope

For progress-delight.

```

37723

```

The duties of life

Should not be shunned

Even for a day.

```

37724

```

The outer life

Enjoys

The man-challenge-game.

```

37725

```

The inner life

Enjoys

The God-exchange-game.

```

37726

```

No skill of mine

Will ever be able to fulfil

My God-manifestation-task.

Only God’s Grace can do that. ```

37727

```

Sincerity I need.

No, no, no publicity

At all.

```

37728

```

I suffer miserably

When I am tortured

By my own self-doubts.

```

37729

```

To expedite

My God-realisation-day,

I must give away

Every second of mine

To God the Creation.

```

37730

```

My heart’s devotion-river

Has finally entered into

My Lord’s Compassion-Ocean.

```

37731

```

My cheerful surrender

Is the only God-fulfilling reality

That I have and I am.

```

37732

```

If I cannot carry

My Lord Beloved Supreme

From breath to breath,

How can I ever be truly happy? ```

37733

```

My aspiration-dedication-rose-blossoms

Are infinitely more beautiful

And fragrant

Than my mind can ever imagine. ```

37734

```

Sooner or later

Our Beloved Supreme

Will definitely be able

To satisfy Himself

In and through us.

```

37735

```

My aspiration-heart-flames

Are not acquired;

They have descended

From my Lord’s Sun. ```

37736

```

My Lord was utterly unhappy

When He saw

My unconditional surrender

To His Will

Unnecessarily delaying.

```

37737

```

Rest assured,

Nobody’s love, devotion and surrender

Will remain unexamined

By God. ```

37738

```

Be not carried away

With your mountain-high pride.

Soon your mind-pillars

Will be turned to sand. ```

37739

```

Be careful!

Anything can go wrong

In your life

At any moment. ```

37740

```

Be careful!

Anybody can disappoint you

At any moment

In your life. ```

37741

```

Be careful!

At every moment

You must take the fulfilment

Of God’s Will

As your own salvation.

```

37742

```

God is a stranger

To small portions.

A gigantic Quantity-Giver

God is. ```

37743

```

I gave God

My best heart-smile

When I was watching His Feet

And devouring

Their golden dust.

```

37744

```

Each day is born of a miracle,

And each day is a solemn promise

For numberless miracles.

```

37745

```

My Lord,

Nothing can torture me

As powerfully

As Your one single Tear. ```

37746

```

Self-pity

Is the worst possible crime

In the spiritual life.

```

37747

```

Because of the existence of hope,

This world of ours

Is still alive.

```

37748

```

I shall not allow anybody

To uproot

My God-surrender-tree.

```

37749

```

Patience

And the fulness of time

Are equally proud of each other.

```

37750

```

No God-surrender-seeker

Should know

The return way.

```

37751

```

No human eyes

Have ever seen

The Beauty of the Ineffable.

```

37752

```

No human ears

Have ever heard

The Silence-Sound of God.

```

37753

```

God wants my spiritual life

To be founded upon

My purity-heart.

```

37754

```

Who is pulling me?

Ah, I see

My Lord Beloved Supreme.

```

37755

```

O my mind,

Someone has to break

The sad news to you,

And I take the responsibility:

God is terribly dissatisfied with you.

```

37756

```

We came into the world

To feed God’s Heart-Hunger

And not our mind-hunger.

```

37757

```

God has given us

Infinitely more capacities

Than our powerful obstacles.

```

37758

```

God’s Transcendental Gate

Is waiting for us.

We must no longer delay.

```

37759

```

O seekers,

You know more than those

Who do not seek God.

Since you know more about God,

You must also do more,

Infinitely more,

For the betterment of the world.

```

37760

```

Life is but

A painful experience

From womb to tomb.

```

37761

```

Everything is possible —

The transformation of the mind

Can also take place

Before long. ```

37762

```

Simplicity of life

Of paramount importance.

```

37763

```

Inside my body

Everything is getting older,

But not my heart.

```

37764

```

God’s Love

For each and every creation of His

Is not only unbounded

But also inexhaustible. ```

37765

```

The life

That does not aspire

Is half dead.

```

37766

```

My life has something more

Than love, devotion and surrender —

It has oneness, inseparable oneness,

With the Will of the Supreme. ```

37767

```

Every second of my life

I am utilising to propagate

My Lord’s Compassion

Here on earth. ```

37768

```

O seeker,

Do not play with temptation.

Do you not know that temptation

Is a blazing fire? ```

37769

```

A seeker must know that

His God-manifestation-promise

Is of supreme importance

In his life. ```

37770

```

With our aspiration-heart

We must reduce to dust

Doubt, suspicion, negativity

And everything undivine. ```

37771

```

Desire-disease

Is aggressive.

It spreads everywhere.

```

37772

```

Aspiration-decline

A most painful experience.

```

37773

```

I pray for only one dynasty

To welcome this Twenty-first Century,

And that dynasty is

Divinity’s fully blossomed Infinity. ```

37774

```

Only oneness within

And oneness without

Can save this world.

```

37775

```

We must force fear out,

Not only from our mind

But from every sphere

Of our life. ```

37776

```

The God-unwillingness-wall

Cannot remain unsmashed

Forever.

```

37777

```

O expectation,

Whether you want to or not,

One day you will fade

And disappear. ```

37778

```

We torture others

Precisely because

We are imagining

That we shall be tortured

By others.

```

37779

```

The life

That is oriented only to success

Cannot have happiness,

Real happiness

That lasts.

```

37780

```

I am locked up

In my own

Mind-confusion-cave.

```

37781

```

If you think that

Any outer book

Will give you what you need,

You are sadly mistaken. ```

37782

```

What you need

You can get only

From your heart-book,

And that heart-book

Is God’s Compassion-Eye.

```

37783

```

God does not care

Only for famous people;

He cares only for

Gracious hearts. ```

37784

```

There is nothing wrong

In choosing once again

What you chose years ago,

If it is something

That inspires you,

Encourages you and illumines you. ```

37785

```

We cannot cast self-giving

Into oblivion,

For God has given self-giving

An immortal life. ```

37786

```

If there is no fellow-feeling,

Then there can be

No thrilling achievements.

```

37787

```

When we speak to God

In silence,

We need no intermediary.

```

37788

```

Spiritual attainments

Take a very, very long time.

Be not discouraged.

Be only watchful and cheerful. ```

37789

```

A spiritual Master

Is not to be compared

With other Masters.

He is just to be followed

By his own disciples.

```

37790

```

Anything divine

Can never be

Monotonous.

```

37791

```

If we do not obey

Our Inner Pilot,

We shall definitely come to grief

At some point in our life. ```

37792

```

Be not averse to earthly ways

Of realising God.

Earthly ways to God

Are the heart’s sleepless cries

And the heart’s sleepless eagerness

For God’s Light. ```

37793

```

God wants our love —

And not our power —

To encircle

The whole world. ```

37794

```

If we weep for the downtrodden,

Then God will come down

From Heaven

With His golden Chariot

To give us a very long ride.

```

37795

```

I choose obscurity

So that I can make

The fastest progress

In the realm of divinity. ```

37796

```

I and mine —

These are the two

Most powerful forces,

And they are quite often used. ```

37797

```

When I am wanting

In inspiration, aspiration

And dedication,

I find myself adrift

On a shoreless ocean.

```

37798

```

To become better citizens

Of the world,

We must scatter happiness

Here, there and all-where. ```

37799

```

Truth-embodiment

Is not enough;

It has to be manifested

Here on earth —

The sooner the better.

```

37800

```

I must disentangle

The divine

From the undivine

In my life. ```

37801

```

I must adopt

An entirely new way of life

So that I can receive

Light from within

In abundant measure.

```

37802

```

Each individual

Sooner or later

Has to plunge headlong

Into the world of self-offering. ```

37803

```

We all must know

That our Lord

Is a staunch supporter

Of our unwavering faith in Him. ```

37804

```

If we do not reduce our wants

To the absolute minimum,

We cannot go fast, very fast,

Towards our God-Palace. ```

37805

```

We must observe our mastery

Over our undisciplined life

If we really want to value

God’s smiling Face,

Smiling Eyes

And smiling Heart. ```

37806

```

Selfishness

Not only delays

But destroys

Our God-willingness-speed. ```

37807

```

The Master’s message

Is only for the heart’s

Listening ear.

```

37808

```

We wade through the mire

Of world-suffering

Precisely because we create suffering,

Consciously and unconsciously,

By not surrendering

To the Will of God. ```

37809

```

Our love of God

We can never exaggerate. ```

37810

```

The mind and the vital

Are quite often in agreement,

But again, their own supremacy-hunger

May one day separate them

For good.

```

37811

```

Love yourself divinely,

Self-givingly, soulfully

And proudly.

If that is done,

You can easily and unmistakably

Love the world

And make the world feel

That it is all ready and all fit

For God-manifestation.

```

37812

```

If you do not maintain

Your childlike simplicity

And sincerity,

Your progress is bound to be slow. ```

37813

```

God needs

Many, many sincere seekers

To be His twenty-four-hour

Personal Attendants

To raise the consciousness

Of this world. ```

37814

```

Do not allow

Your love, devotion and surrender

To be influenced

By worldly circumstances. ```

37815

```

When my Master

Gives me an opportunity

To serve him,

I must take it immediately,

Lovingly, self-givingly,

Plus proudly. ```

37816

```

Each soul has a circle

Of helpers

And well-wishers.

```

37817

```

We need an ever-transcending

Love of God

If we really want to please Him

In His own Way. ```

37818

```

World-criticism

Will not be able to crush you

Unless you are willing to be crushed.

```

37819

```

No doubt, no suspicion, no negativity

Can paralyse us

Unless we give them

Our secret sanction. ```

37820

```

My Lord,

Please allow me to be

A full-time selfless server

Of Your Feet. ```

37821

```

Our gratitude-life

And gratitude-heart

Must flow like a river

Towards

The Ocean of Compassion.

```

37822

```

Any moment

To invoke God, love God

And serve God

Is an opportune moment. ```

37823

```

Our life has to be extensive;

Our heart has to be intensive —

This is how we can make

The fastest progress. ```

37824

```

The days pass by.

We do not increase

Our love of God.

Alas, what kind of stupid life

Are we leading?

```

37825

```

God does not need

A questioning mind —

Never!

```

37826

```

God needs only

A self-giving heart —

Ever!

```

37827

```

There should be

A perfect synthesis

Of aspiration and dedication.

```

37828

```

When we tell God

That we owe Him everything,

God says, “Stop, stop!

Just love Me more self-givingly.” ```

37829

```

If you really care for the world,

Then love the world,

Serve the world,

Become the world,

And do not think of

Your personal salvation. ```

37830

```

When we go to God

With hungry eyes,

God smiles at us.

```

37831

```

When we go to God

With hungry hearts,

God embraces us.

```

37832

```

When we go to God

Only to love Him,

Only to serve Him,

He places us on His Shoulders

And starts dancing.

```

37833

```

If we give too much importance

To the material world,

Then definitely our matter-life

Will overpower

Our spirit-hunger.

```

37834

```

O my heart’s silence-sea,

Where are you?

My life is crying and bleeding

For you. ```

37835

```

Heaven does not believe in

Indulgence and leisure-life.

Unfortunately, earth believes.

```

37836

```

Do not ask Heaven

For any help

Without taking

God’s Permission. ```

37837

```

Do not ask earth

For any help

Without God’s

Express Permission. ```

37838

```

You are supposed to take

Only what God wants you to have

And not what you want to have

From mankind. ```

37839

```

In God’s Silence-Eye,

There is no suffering.

There is only one thing:

Blossoming, ever blossoming. ```

37840

```

There is only one remedy

For all our anxieties

And worries.

Just claim that God’s Love

Is for you, only for you.

But His Love for you has to be

At His own Time

And in His own Way. ```

37841

```

Each mind-mistake

Has to be taken

Very seriously.

```

37842

```

Behind each joke

There can be

A partial truth.

```

37843

```

When God grants me

A private conversation,

He always tells me one thing:

“My child,

Do not delay, do not delay!

You have still

Many, many more things to do

Here on earth.” ```

37844

```

A divinity-seed

I am.

An Immortality-Tree

I shall become. ```

37845

```

O, what I need is

An ancient aspiration-life-tree

Inside my heart-garden.

```

37846

```

Our spiritual life will be at stake

If we do not maintain

Our strong oneness-friendship

With our inner existence. ```

37847

```

When we do not aspire,

When we do not serve,

God’s Invitation for us

Will be indefinitely delayed. ```

37848

```

If we diminish

Our self-importance,

Then God will increase our aspiration

Tenfold. ```

37849

```

No self-importance,

No self-importance!

Self-importance

Is a slow poison. ```

37850

```

To touch God’s Feet

And remain at God’s Feet

All the time —

This is my sole responsibility. ```

37851

```

My old expectation:

God will be for me. ```

37852

```

My new expectation:

I shall live for God. ```

37853

```

My only divine expectation:

God to please

In God’s own Way.

```

37854

```

If your heart weeps,

Then you are not wasting

Your life here on earth.

```

37855

```

If your life smiles,

Then you are not wasting

Your life here on earth.

```

37856

```

To be a supremely authentic

Mouthpiece of God,

What you need from your life

Is a sleeplessly dedicated service. ```

37857

```

The division-mind

Can never be

The undisputed king

Of the world. ```

37858

```

Only the oneness-heart

Can be

The undisputed king

Of the world. ```

37859

```

God expects

Each and every human being

To be loving, devoted

And self-giving

To His Creation.

```

37860

```

There will always be

Some friends

Who will sympathise

With me. ```

37861

```

There will always be

Many enemies

Who will ruthlessly sneer

At my failure. ```

37862

```

Self-giving

Is always appealing

Everywhere.

```

37863

```

My Lord is happy

Only when I do the right thing

Over and over again.

```

37864

```

My inner poise

I hide

Inside my heart-cave.

```

37865

```

God tells me

That He is always ready

To watch

My teeming tears

And beaming smiles.

```

37866

```

No good heart

Will ever belittle

Others.

```

37867

```

O doubting mind,

Your supremacy-days

Are gone,

Once and for all. ```

37868

```

When God is not the Doer

In my life,

My self-created miseries

Know no end. ```

37869

```

The “love of God” religion

Does not claim

Man-made religions.

```

37870

```

Each person has his own way

To love God

And please God.

```

37871

```

When I do anything wrong,

My Beloved Supreme

Tells the whole world

That it is He

Who made the mistake.

He takes the full blame. ```

37872

```

I take God’s

Silence-Whispers

As His loudest Command.

```

37873

```

At long last I find myself

Inside my

Sweetness-fondness-heart-home.

```

37874

```

Against all odds

I shall win without fail

In the battlefield of life.

```

37875

```

Life is perishable —

But our God-hunger

Will remain.

```

37876

```

Life is perishable —

Only a matter of a few games

To play here on earth.

```

37877

```

When I concentrate

On my soul’s magnum opus,

I feel I am running

At a fast, very fast speed

To my Lord’s Palace.

```

37878

```

Be not engrossed

In the outer world. ```

37879

```

Be fully absorbed

In the inner world

If you want to create

A new world-harmony,

A new world-fulfilment.

```

37880

```

Nothing works

When despair governs

The mind, vital

And body. ```

37881

```

My life has to move

Only in one way:

The progress-way.

```

37882

```

We thought God would never punish us.

Now we see that He does.

Again, we must know

That it is for our own good

That He punishes us.

```

37883

```

God does not want me

To count how many times

He has forgiven me.

```

37884

```

When I take rest

In my heart-nest,

Everything is beautiful

And perfect. ```

37885

```

God tells me

That soon I will hear from Him

What He expects from me

In this lifetime. ```

37886

```

Happiness is eagerly waiting

To befriend me,

But, alas, I am afraid.

I think happiness will be

Too powerful for me.

```

37887

```

I start my life every morning

With absolute sincerity

To please God

In His own Way. ```

37888

```

Willingness

Has to be dynamic

And not inactive.

```

37889

```

I see the path,

I know the path,

But I do not have the courage

To walk along the path. ```

37890

```

My Lord says

He will prove to me

That I will be able

To conquer

Ignorance-night.

```

37891

```

I must banish

My hesitation-mind. ```

37892

```

The beauty

Of my experiences

And the fragrance

Of my realisations

I am placing at the Feet

Of my Lord Supreme. ```

37893

```

My future is

Beautifully and perfectly dawning

Inside my heart.

I can see it, I can feel it. ```

37894

```

Possibilities

Do want to reach out to us,

But we feel that we are not ready.

```

37895

```

My Lord,

You are Your Golden Eye

And I am

My silver breath. ```

37896

```

If all depended on me,

I would have been nobody —

A man of no consequence.

```

37897

```

Divinity dawns

When there is

Prayer-intensity.

```

37898

```

Nobody can shatter

Anybody else’s

Peace and bliss.

```

37899

```

Each day

A sincere seeker

Is taken by the Lord Himself

To a deeper realm of Divinity. ```

37900

```

My God-surrender

My life’s pole-star.

```

37901

```

God’s Forgiveness

And my awareness

Dream the same dreams.

```

37902

```

God deeply enjoys

Taking rest

In my surrender-heart-cottage.

```

37903

```

The frustration-mind

Does not believe in

Illumining Light.

```

37904

```

Always remain prepared.

You have no idea

When God will lovingly

And proudly visit you. ```

37905

```

My God-obedience-heart

Is empty of

Negativity.

```

37906

```

Gratitude-smiles

Are valued most

By our Lord Supreme.

```

37907

```

God tells me that

My surrender-life

Is my indomitable inner strength

To remain at the Feet

Of my Lord Supreme.

```

37908

```

Any time that God calls on me

I must realise that

His Time is always right.

```

37909

```

Do you know why

I am so proud of myself?

I am so proud of myself

Because I always find myself

Inside my Lord’s Heart-Garden.

```

37910

```

Heaven invites me

To bless me

With all its Delight.

```

37911

```

Hell invites me

Only to torture

My entire being.

```

37912

```

In spreading God’s Light,

Be always courageous. ```

37913

```

The desiring mind

Craves

For name and fame.

```

37914

```

The aspiring heart

Pines

For God.

```

37915

```

Enthusiasm

Creates

Opportunity.

```

37916

```

Opportunity

Creates

God-closeness.

```

37917

```

God-closeness

Creates

My supreme satisfaction.

```

37918

```

The earthly music

Walks up

Step by step.

```

37919

```

The Heavenly music

Flies all-where

In the vastness-sky.

```

37920

```

To me,

Not only is a pilgrim

My friend,

But the pilgrimage itself

Is a friend as well.

```

37921

```

Provocation

On any plane

Is dangerous

And destructive. ```

37922

```

Invocation

On any plane

Is instructive

And constructive. ```

37923

```

Unwillingness and disobedience

Walk together

Hand in hand.

```

37924

```

The mind

Is proud of

Its volcano-ideas.

```

37925

```

The heart

Is proud of

Its divine ideals.

```

37926

```

The outer God-search

Stupidity.

```

37927

```

The inner God-search

The secret of secrets.

```

37928

```

Each God-fulfilment-promise

An unimaginable thrill.

```

37929

```

My Lord,

I would like You

To remove my obstacles,

But not before I please You

With my purity-heart.

```

37930

```

If we do not think of

Everything in God-terms,

How will we ever succeed

In the battlefield of life? ```

37931

```

My humility,

I want you to be

My inner tutor.

```

37932

```

A sleepless determination

I need

To achieve my inner illumination.

```

37933

```

I wish to live

Under the sky

Of world-illumining stars.

```

37934

```

Everybody

Loves to have

Something new,

Unprecedented. ```

37935

```

Finally,

My mind-complaint-list

I was able to destroy.

```

37936

```

God and I

Have established

Our friendship

Based on absolute sincerity. ```

37937

```

A heart-flower

Expedites

God’s Hour.

```

37938

```

Disobedience-steps

Are experts

In multiplication.

```

37939

```

When intensity

Enters into aspiration,

God-realisation

Does not remain a far cry. ```

37940

```

God loves to feed

My heart’s needs

But not

My human greed. ```

37941

```

When my life glows,

I know and feel

God is my All.

```

37942

```

Aspiration and frustration

Always love to remain

Strangers.

```

37943

```

We must rekindle

Our heart’s aspiration-flames

No matter how many times

They are extinguished. ```

37944

```

My sincerity

Means

God-proximity.

```

37945

```

When I love God

And serve God,

There can be no risk.

```

37946

```

My aspiration-heart

Must climb

High, higher, highest

At every moment. ```

37947

```

The aspiring heart

Does not believe in

Judging others.

```

37948

```

Prayers and meditations

Are

My life’s secret

And sacred elevations. ```

37949

```

I start my day

With my Lord’s secret

And sacred Whispers.

```

37950

```

If we strive for

Self-conquest,

Then our lives will be filled

With God’s indomitable Capacity. ```

37951

```

My mind,

When will you sincerely strive

For God-satisfaction?

```

37952

```

My heart,

When will you soulfully cry

For God’s Descent to earth

From the high Heavens? ```

37953

```

When I am ready,

God shakes hands

With me.

```

37954

```

When I am eager,

God starts immediately

Embracing me.

```

37955

```

When I am intense,

I see God

Has just arrived.

```

37956

```

Success-drum

Harmful.

```

37957

```

Progress-flute

Prayerful, beautiful and soulful.

```

37958

```

God’s Call loves

My heart’s immediate response

More than anything else.

```

37959

```

I love my heart’s

Soaring devotion-wings. ```

37960

```

God loves embracing

My devotion-heart-bird. ```

37961

```

True,

I am an insignificant

Human being,

But I dare say that

I am a child of God.

```

37962

```

Do not delay,

Do not delay!

Even God the Forgiveness

Will not indefinitely wait

For you.

```

37963

```

Perfection

Is not to be found anywhere.

Only in a dream

Can it be found everywhere. ```

37964

```

Solitude

An unparalleled inner wealth.

```

37965

```

Loneliness

Is not a divine quality.

It stands against

The oneness-heart of humanity. ```

37966

```

The ancient way

Is to dive deep within

To grow into wisdom-delight.

```

37967

```

The modern way

Is to garner power

From here, from there,

From everywhere. ```

37968

```

Self-will

Is bound to be limited,

Very limited.

```

37969

```

Every day

God re-evaluates

My inner progress.

```

37970

```

Laziness

Is the very beginning

Of pathetic poverty.

```

37971

```

Our search for God

In itself

Is a tremendous joy.

```

37972

```

If God comes first

In all our actions,

Then frustration

Will not be able to take birth

In our life.

```

37973

```

We must take every day

As a special day

And make special efforts

To fulfil

Our God-satisfaction-promise.

```

37974

```

If I am interested only in

My self-glorification,

Then where does poor God stand

In my earthly life

And Heavenly life?

```

37975

```

To touch God’s Feet

Is not

My ultimate goal.

```

37976

```

My ultimate goal

Is to become

A tinier than the tiniest speck

Of the dust of God’s Feet. ```

37977

```

Every day

I must and must offer myself

At every moment

Like never before. ```

37978

```

God says to me,

“My child,

So far you have been

An earth-bound cry.

From now on I want you to be

A Heaven-free smile.” ```

37979

```

God-Touch means

No more are you

A failure-life.

```

37980

```

God-Touch means

God has made you

A fort of His.

```

37981

```

Every morning

May all my uninspiring thoughts

And unaspiring ideas

Utterly evaporate. ```

37982

```

Heart-devotion

Means a life

Empty of pollution.

```

37983

```

God tells me

He does not believe in slavery.

He believes only in

A oneness-heart-friendship. ```

37984

```

Willingness

A mighty power.

```

37985

```

Eagerness

A mighty power manifested.

```

37986

```

Muster all your strength

To smash the pride

Of the darkest ignorance-night.

```

37987

```

God’s Heart

Speaks. ```

37988

```

God’s Eye

Interprets. ```

37989

```

The power of the mind

Enjoys division. ```

37990

```

The power of the heart

Enjoys union,

God-union.

```

37991

```

Sweeter than the sweetest,

Stronger than the strongest,

My surrender-heart’s breath.

```

37992

```

The beauty of the heart

And the fragrance of the soul

Shall always defy

Human comprehension. ```

37993

```

Many

Hear the Name

Of God.

```

37994

```

Infinitely more

Feel the Heart

Of God.

```

37995

```

God’s Eye is all-where.

It is our utter stupidity

To try to hide from Him

Our crying hearts

And smiling eyes.

```

37996

```

Alas,

The transformation

Of the mind

Is such a difficult task. ```

37997

```

No more my mind

Will cherish

Ignorance-sleep.

```

37998

```

A life without God

Is a glass

Broken into millions of pieces.

```

37999

```

Life itself

Is a true chance

To become

A choice instrument

Of God.

```

38000

```

A God-seeker I was.

A God-lover I now am.

A God-fulfiller

I shall before long become. ```
