Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 13

Return to the table of contents

1201

My Lord Supreme,
Your Rainbow-Smile is the source
Of my heart’s freedom-life
And my soul’s satisfaction-breath
Here on earth,
There in Heaven.

1202

My prayer longs to reach
God’s Feet.
My meditation longs to see
God’s Eye.
I long to breathe
God’s Heart.

1203

How can you have
Translucent morning dreams
When you carry the heavy weight
Of ignorance-night
Inside your unaspiring heart?

1204

Yours is the happiness-heart
That significantly helps God
In steering His Eternity’s
Vision-Boat.

1205

Each time he soulfully meditates,
On the strength of
His self-transcendence-mind
He sees that his life-tree
Is ascending and expanding.

1206

If you are an excellent truth-seeker,
Then your Master’s compassion-splendour
Will radiate
In your aspiring dream-eye.

1207

Look at this stupid seeker!
His aspiration is reduced
To skin and bones,
Yet he thinks that God
Is still pleased with his mind,
Still fond of his heart
And still proud of his life.

1208

Faith is what my heart has.
Doubt is what my mind knows.
Life is what my Lord places
Inside my heart.
Death is what I place
At the feet of my Lord.

1209

My Lord Supreme,
Sometimes I wonder
If Your Heart-Dictionary
Houses all the words.
“My child,
My Dictionary houses all the words
That your dictionary houses
Save and except ‘indifference’
And ‘uselessness’.”

1210

Finally imperfection
Has left his mind.
Finally frustration
Has left his vital.
Finally hesitation
Has left his heart.
And now gloriously begins
His Heavenward life-journey.

1211

I have three names.
My first name is
Aspiration-cry.
My middle name is
Dedication-smile.
My last name is
God-Satisfaction.

1212

If you want to be inside
God’s Silence-Delight-Heart,
Then you must completely forget
Your power-hungry past.

1213

If you feel you have nothing
To discard in your life,
Then you are sadly mistaken.
You can at least discard
Your useless complaints
And deathless grievances.

1214

My heart’s pressing necessity
Is to shun the spiritual Masters
Who deliberately offer
Counterfeit realisations
To the world at large.

1215

Previously he was his heart’s
Silence-trance.
Now he is his life’s
Transcendence-joy.
Soon he will be his God’s
Perfection-Satisfaction-Song.

1216

When silence sails his mind-boat,
God immediately sails
His Golden Boat ahead of him
And leads him to the Golden Shore.

1217

Always treasure a powerful will
In the depths of your heart
So that you can avert
All ignorance-adventures on earth.

1218

True, I have changed many things
In my life,
But I will not be completely satisfied
Unless and until I have fully transformed
The face of my heart.

1219

To fathom the depths
Of my Lord’s Compassion-Roots,
I must first become
A childlike surrender-blossom.

1220

Cancel two things in your life
And you will be extremely happy.
Cancel your success-delaying ideas
And your progress-starving ideals.

1221

His soul has made a solemn promise
To him
That it will not leave the body
Until all his divine dreams are fulfilled
Here on earth.

1222

What you are is nothing
But an immense tide of desire.
Therefore, even your heart’s silver dreams
Have become dull and tarnished.

1223

Who will believe in time to come
That you seized a mountain-high greatness
Without earning it in the least?

1224

God will grant you another chance
To rewrite your dull life-story
If you do not allow
Your body, vital and mind
To become immersed in attachment-wave.

1225

I am now convinced
That two things will never leave me:
My heart’s expectation-smile
And my life’s frustration-cry.

1226

When I suffer badly
From my mind’s forgetfulness-disease,
My Lord Supreme appears before me
With His Compassion-flooded
Love-Medicine.

1227

Unexpected troubles are knocking
At your door
Because you are surrendering
To your ceaseless desire-hunger-life.

1228

Wherever he goes,
He creates a new Heaven.
Wherever he stays,
He destroys the dark despair of hell.

1229

O superior human beings,
If you wear the shoes of contempt,
Do you know that your hours
Of deplorable folly
Will never meet with the Hour
Of God’s infinite Wisdom-Delight?

1230

No time for sorrow!
I shall become my heart’s soul-bird.
I shall soar high, very high,
And drink deep the Fountain-Love
Of my Beloved Supreme.

1231

At last he has defeated his ego
Mercilessly.
Now he loves and knows
Only one thing:
Oneness-song.

1232

You are such a fool!
Why are you trying
To remember the pain
Of your lost illusion-mind?

1233

If you do not have oneness-realisation,
Who knows what will happen to you?
You may be imprisoned
By world-jealousy and world-insecurity.

1234

Definitely God has use for you.
At His choice Hour
He will reveal your inner capacities.
Be not afraid of Him!
He is not going to expose
Your past naked ignorance-breath.

1235

The oneness-cry of my soul-bird
Is the only thing
That I shall love infinitely more
Than anything else.

1236

“The perfection-satisfaction-smile
Of Heaven
Is just one step ahead.”
This is what my obedience-mind
And my surrender-life
Are cheerfully telling me.

1237

Yesterday I called it
A moment of self-indulgence.
But today I am calling that very thing
A year of destruction-death.

1238

If you are a truly sincere soul,
Then God blessingfully does
Two things for you:
Secretly He buries
Your old ignorance-life.
Openly He hurries to you
And extols your new wisdom-flooded life.

1239

Alas, he is extremely unhappy
Because he has
A mind that is too quick
To think wisely
And a heart that is too slow
To choose wisely.

1240

Every day you walk along
The avenue of doubt.
At each step you have
Only one friend:
Frustration-dust.

1241

My mind thinks
That it is really great.
My heart feels
That it can be really great
If so is the Will of God.
My soul knows
Only one thing:
My Inner Pilot is everything.

1242

He bowed his head
To the humility-dust
Only to be pierced by the arrow
Of God’s ever-increasing
And ever-transcending translucent Joy.

1243

My Lord Supreme,
You are telling me
That I am another God,
Like Yourself.
Would You kindly cut another joke?

“My sweet child,
Another joke:
I wish to be a perfect student of yours,
Since you feel you have been failing
All along
To become a perfect student of Mine.”

1244

What has God’s Compassion-Eye
Done for me?
God’s Compassion-Eye has given
My body, vital, mind, heart and soul
Countless chances to prepare themselves
For a perfection-satisfaction-dance with Him.

1245

My Supreme Lord,
What shall I do?
Do You want me to complain
Against the world,
Or should I explain to You
Why I am in
Such a deplorable situation?

“My sweet child,
I need no complaints from you.
I need no explanations from you.
I want you only to maintain your soul’s
Adamantine will-power-fire
To burn the ignorance-tree
That you see before you
And the ignorance-tree
That is inside you.”

1246

Each day dawns
With a Compassion-Smile
From my Beloved Supreme.
Yet my journey’s goal
Is still a far cry.

1247

Are you trying to teach me something
Or are you trying to learn something
From me?
If you are trying to teach me something,
Then instead of teaching me,
I would like you to teach
My unruly, disobedient mind.
If you are trying to learn something
From me,
Then instead of learning from me,
I would like you to learn every day
A purity-song from my heart.

1248

My Lord Supreme laughed at me
For an hour
When He heard that I felt I have
Something exceptionally new to offer
To the world at large.

My Lord Supreme cried for me
For an hour
When He heard that I have declared
My life to be a total failure.

1249

Alas, you are not schooled enough
To see purity
Inside earth’s heart-garden.

Alas, you are not schooled enough
To see the Compassion-flooded Eye of God
Inside your soul’s God-Hour.

1250

Every day enlarge
Your aspiration-heart-room.
To your wide surprise,
You will see that one day
God Himself will come and remove
Your darkness-desire-corpse.

1251

By no means does self-transcendence
Mean an impossible task,
And possibility can and must reach
Self-transcendence-shore.

1252

You want to receive from God
His Satisfaction-Crown
In spite of the fact
That you have the appetite
Of a tiny bird
For your progress-life.

1253

God does not need
Many things from me
To satisfy Him.
He needs only one thing —
Surrender —
And that, too, He does not need
In large quantity.
Even a morsel of my surrender-life
Can satisfy Him.

1254

My Lord Supreme,
You have corrected my mind
With Your Concern.
You have perfected my heart
With Your Compassion.
You have fulfilled my life
With Your Forgiveness.

1255

Try to establish
A conscious friendship with your soul.
Then you will see
That you are never too old
To transform your earth-bound life
Into a Heaven-free life.

1256

Every day his Inner Pilot
Takes the pulse
Of his aspiration-heart
And grants him
A powerful Satisfaction-Smile.

1257

You can never be a loser,
You can only be a winner
Every time
If you race
On a sincerity-progress-track.

1258

For a long time
God the Justice has been giving me
His own Telescope
To see the Beyond.
Now God the Compassion has given me
His brand new Telescope
To see the Beyond
And has said to me
That I don’t have to return it
But can keep it for my own use.

1259

A silver dream-tree:
This is what my mind has.
A golden reality-fruit:
This is what my heart is.

1260

Long ago we said farewell
To Truth’s inner instructions.
But now we have become hunters
Of that lost divinity-world.

1261

Do not interrogate
Divinity’s poise within you,
For inside it
What always looms large
Is God’s Perfection-Choice.

1262

If your mind is always tainted
With self-interest,
How can you ever have
A drop of divinity’s oneness-delight?

1263

A long chain of responsibility:
This is what the human life is.
A sleepless embrace of Immortality:
This is what the divine life is.

1264

Disobedience means death.
How can you drink
The sunbeams from the Beyond
When disobedience reigns supreme
In both your inner life and outer life?

1265

A doubting mind is nothing other than
An age-old corruption in man.
A trembling heart is nothing other than
An age-old frustration of God.

1266

Because your inner heart is
Purity’s self-revealing smile,
Your outer life is
Beauty’s God-satisfying victory.

1267

God usually does not interfere
In anybody’s life.
But in my case He did interfere
When I felt absolutely sure
That I would never be able to become
A choice instrument of His.

1268

No wrong can touch his life
Because every day his heart
Climbs up the ladder
That leads to Heaven’s justice-delight.

1269

Desires to which we did not yield
Have now become our illumined friends
And live in the dream-delight-river
Of our perfection-oneness.

1270

Every day without fail
A sincere seeker-heart
Must have a new, strong
And stout bodyguard
To protect him from
Temptation’s destruction-dance.

1271

His mind-clock tells him
That he does not have to waste
His precious time
Waiting for God,
Since God’s existence is quite uncertain.

His heart-clock tells him
To wait and watch,
For God will definitely come.

His soul-clock tells him
That God has already arrived
And asks him what he is doing
And why he is not taking care
Of the Supreme Guest.

1272

Every day he makes teeming mistakes,
And every day God corrects his mistakes.
He deeply appreciates God’s corrections.
Such being the case,
God wants to paint
A beautiful heart-portrait of him.

1273

Do not allow your heart
To be afraid
Of earth’s excruciating pangs.

Do not allow your mind
To be afraid
Of Heaven’s stark indifference.

Go slowly and steadily.
Your aspiration-dedication-train
Will unmistakably reach
The goal of the Beyond.

1274

You want to know
What God’s Compassion-Breath
Is doing for me.
I want to tell you
That His Compassion-Breath
Is every day, every hour saving me
From my spiritual death.

1275

God wants you to do Him a favour
Before He does you a favour.
He wants you to keep
Your heart-door open
For a few fleeting minutes,
And then, what He will do,
You know:
For hours and hours
He will walk on your life’s shore.

1276

From time immemorial
God has been doing
Your inner heart-house cleaning.
If you are pleased with Him,
How is it that you are not asking Him
To do your outer mind-house cleaning?
I assure you,
He will gladly do it.

1277

My Lord is promising me
That He will gladly correct and transform
My past life-story
If I will be more careful in writing
My present life-story.

1278

My inner life
Is beauty’s progress-goal.
My outer life
Is insecurity’s monotony-role.
Alas, how can I perfectly synthesise
These two lives of mine?

1279

Every morning before I do anything
My Beloved Supreme gives my heart
A Compassion-Ride.

Every evening before I do anything
My Lord Supreme carries my mind
In His Forgiveness-Plane.

1280

Every day your mind-thief
Leaves its fingerprints
On your life,
And you don’t mind!
So tell me,
How can God grant you
His Heart-Room to live in?

1281

God’s Compassion-Heart-Apartment
Is for rent.
But He will allow you to rent it
Only if you can show Him every day
A new hunger inside your heart.

1282

What is the matter with you?
Do you not see that every day
Your life’s ignorance-cancer
Is spreading?
When are you going to ask God
To extinguish your life’s
Burning passion-fires?

1283

One encouragement-word
From the Lips of my Inner Pilot
Led me to become a hero-warrior.

Now another encouragement-word
From His Lips
Is leading me towards
His own Self-Transcendence-Height.

1284

As if an impure mind is not enough,
Now he is suffering from
An impure breath.
Alas, how can his heart-flower
Ever blossom?

1285

At long last my Lord Supreme
Has granted me a high promotion.
From now on
I do not have to fight
With my worst enemy, doubt,
More than five minutes a day,
Whereas in the past
I had to fight with brooding doubt
At least five hours a day.

1286

There are five tollbooths
On the highway to Heaven.
The first one is
Surrender-plant-tollbooth.
The second one is
Gratitude-tree-tollbooth.
The third one is
Perfection-flower-tollbooth.
The fourth one is
Satisfaction-fruit-tollbooth.
The fifth one is
God’s Oneness-Embrace-Tollbooth.

1287

My soul’s powerful smile
Touched my body’s ignorance-smile
Only once.
Now my body is fully awakened,
Fully ready to accept
The Invitation from God.

1288

God’s Mind does not have
Undecided Time.
God’s Heart does not have
Ungiven Love.
God’s Life does not have
Unfulfilled Delight.

1289

God does not demand
Any previous experience
From a cheerfully and sleeplessly
Surrendered seeker
To give him a high position
In His Heart-Palace.

1290

O my insecurity-life,
I have a piece of advice for you.
Please, please allow only God,
And nobody else,
To have a free access to you.

1291

I have asked my mind
To take care of me,
But my mind does not want
To take care of me
Because I am so stupid.

I have asked my heart
To take care of me,
But my heart does not want
To take care of me
Because I am so impure.

Finally, I have asked my Lord Supreme
To take care of me.
My Lord Supreme says,
“My child,
I shall definitely take care of you
Because your entire life
Is so sincere.”

1292

My Beloved Supreme
Has always wanted me
To have a tight security
From morn to dusk
And from dusk to morn
Around my heart-door.
Alas, what prevents me from accepting
His unconditional offer?

1293

If you want to play with God
On His See-Saw,
Then you need three things
Before He will invite you
To play with Him:
A mind empty of criticism,
A heart empty of fear,
A life that is neither
Afraid of the world’s criticism
Nor afraid of Heaven’s indifference.

1294

His stupidity has reached
Its highest height,
For he feels that his time on earth
Is more precious and valuable
Than even God’s.

1295

I came down from Heaven
To love your heart,
O earth.
Do you not know it?

I shall be taking
Our oneness-satisfaction
Back with me to Heaven,
O earth.
Do you never feel it?

1296

Yesterday he gave up
The spiritual life totally.
He promised himself
That he would never think of God,
Or speak about God,
Or even look at God
If God appeared before him.

Today he hears from everyone
That God has made him
His choice instrument
To shatter the doubts
Of all human beings.
Now he says to himself,
“Alas, good news has come
At such a wrong time!”

1297

The other day somebody asked me
If I could say a few nice things
About Krishna and Buddha.
I said, “Of course, of course.
They are my Eternity’s friends.
Every day I see them.
Early in the morning every day
When I go from earth to Heaven,
Buddha places his wisdom-peace-bridge
Before me
For me to go up to Heaven.
Every evening
When I return from Heaven to earth,
Krishna places his love-delight-bridge
Before me
For me to come down to earth.”

1298

My Lord,
Quite often I speak ill of You;
Quite often I find fault with You.
I am sure these are
My unforgivable sins.

“My child,
They are not unforgivable;
They are easily forgivable.
But unfortunately you have committed
An unforgivable sin,
And that sin is
That you have totally given up
The idea of realising Me.”

1299

My Lord Supreme,
Please tell me why You have
An unlisted number.
“My child,
It is a top secret,
But anyhow I am telling you.
Both Heaven and earth bother me
Like anything.
I am totally sick of them.
Every day Heaven has to invite me
To participate in its birth anniversaries,
And every day earth has to invite me
To participate in its death anniversaries.
I am totally sick of them,
And therefore I don’t allow them
To call me whenever they want to.
Whenever I want to call them
And bless them and illumine them,
I do call.
This is the only reason
Why I have an unlisted number.”

1300

If you want your heart
To walk along silence-road
To reach Infinity’s peace-abode,
Then you must have
An excellent guide.
Needless to say,
Your own soul is by far
The best guide.
