Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 130

Return to the table of contents

12901

May my each living breath
Be a gratitude-whisper
To my Lord Beloved Supreme.

12902

The foolish mind
Quite often performs
In the illusion-theatre.

12903

Finally
My prayerful cries
Have freed me
From thought-domination.

12904

Right before I meditate
My soul comes to decorate
My heart-room.

12905

Devotion-tears
And gratitude-smiles
Are most intimate friends.

12906

A soulfully crying heart
Is always protected
By God’s
Soundless Compassion-Footprints.

12907

The human mind
Regularly produces
Danger-desires.

12908

The aspiration-heart
Has no time to listen
To the mind’s doubt-broadcasts.

12909

How can my heart’s
Illumining faith
Ever abandon my searching mind?
Impossible!

12910

My morning prayer-songs
Affectionately greet
My morning meditation-heart-flowers.

12911

The soul places
The mind’s thought-bombs
At God’s omnipotent
Thunder-Feet.

12912

Only the names of
Self-giving aspiring souls
Are listed
In God’s Satisfaction-Directory.

12913

Unlike us,
God has only two Dreams:
Humanity’s satisfaction-heart
And humanity’s perfection-life.

12914

O detachment-axe,
I have been longing for you
Sleeplessly and breathlessly
In vain.

12915

Be careful,
My young seeker-friends!
Do not allow ambition
To masquerade as aspiration.

12916

I have so many things to do.
Let me start by shaking off
My lethargy-loaded desire-life!

12917

Because of the unaspiring mind
The soul and the body
Find it almost impossible
To maintain their oneness-friendship.

12918

A doubting mind
Is an inevitable and ultimate
Failure.

12919

Pay no attention
To the lessons that despair
Unreservedly preaches.

12920

Truth has the capacity
To sing to the heart
Of the heart’s soul-bird.

12921

O my mind,
Why do you allow yourself
Every morning to be crushed
By your imaginary mountain-worries?

12922

Rainbow-dreams blossom
Most beautifully
Inside the seeker’s
Purity-heart-sky.

12923

O my mind,
Why do you cherish
Blind indifference every day
To the world at large?

12924

May my heart at every moment
Cherish my soul-divinity’s
Imperishable Heaven-dream.

12925

Each drop of divine love
Is indeed a universal gift
From the Absolute Lord Supreme.

12926

O my mind-philosopher,
You must do something better
Than scoff at my heart-lover!

12927

My aspiration-life-tree
And its dedication-branches
Every day I offer
To my Lord Supreme.

12928

Every morning
During my meditation
My soul goes at express-train speed
To my Lord’s Compassion-Height.

12929

The human mind
Not devotedly,
Not even cheerfully,
But reluctantly listens
To the dictates of the heart.

12930

My soul’s adamantine will
Will never allow
My mind’s doubt-multitude
To approach my aspiration-heart.

12931

It is necessary
To honour the past,
But it is compulsory
To welcome the future.

12932

O seeker,
Every day
Try to begin a new,
Soulful and self-giving life-story.

12933

What can separate
The purity of the present
From the divinity of the future?
Nothing!

12934

God’s Compassion-Eye
And His Forgiveness-Heart
Blessingfully give me
Tomorrow’s satisfaction-delight.

12935

My service to humanity
Is my real opportunity
To prove my genuine love
For God and God alone.

12936

Be not lost, O seeker,
Between your complaining mind
And your expecting heart!

12937

O mind,
Is there any human being
Who has never suffered
From the attacks
Of ceaseless and ruthless doubts?

12938

May my vital do something
Infinitely better
Than pray for tireless attention
And ceaseless admiration.

12939

Peace-bridge is built
On mutually self-enlarging
And self-giving foundations.

12940

How I wish that my heart
Would insist
Exactly the same way
That my vital resists!

12941

If you lose cheerfulness,
You have lost something great.
If you lose faith,
You have lost something indispensable.

12942

I never thought that my mind
Would have a transformation-gate
That would be kept open
To God’s Illumination-Eye.

12943

Every morning, to my extreme sorrow,
I see a begging God
Inside my heart
Asking for a flower-sweet smile
From me.

12944

My Lord,
May my heart be always
A cheerful willingness-bird
To fly at Your loving Command.

12945

I shall never revisit
My long-abandoned
Inferiority-insecurity-insincerity-cave.

12946

I listen only to one thing,
And that is my heart’s
Beautiful, soulful and powerful silence.

12947

Hello, hello, hello,
My life’s self-acceptance!
Good-bye, good-bye, good-bye,
My long-torturing self-aggrandisement!

12948

Alas, how long
Am I going to remain stuck
Between my body’s lethargy
And my mind’s complacency?

12949

With infinite compassion
My silence-breath separates me
From the thought-world.

12950

If your heart’s faith in God
Is genuine,
Then you are bound to survive
Each and every doubt-attack
Of the mind.

12951

My God-obedience,
You will always remain
My most intimate
And most cherished friend.

12952

The day I consciously
Fail to pray to God
For the protection of my mind,
I see that my mind is surrounded
By suspicion-scepticism-night.

12953

O my mind,
You will discover sooner or later
Your worthlessness.
O my heart,
You will discover sooner or later
Your fruitfulness.

12954

You see yourself
With your frustration-mind.
God sees you
With His Preparation-Eye.

12955

I am so fortunate
That every day
My meditation-moments are fed
By God’s Satisfaction-Heart.

12956

I soulfully admire
My aspiration-austerity-past.
I happily welcome
My dedication-prosperity-future.

12957

You call it your dedication-duty.
I call it God’s Satisfaction-Reality
In and through you.

12958

My mind may swim
In desire-pond every day,
But my heart swims
In aspiration-sea at every moment.

12959

Complacency: what is it?
It is the very beginning
Of slow but inevitable spiritual death.

12960

My gratitude-heart-bird
Flies and flies
In my soul’s illumination-firmament.

12961

Something is always praying.
I know that very thing
Is my heart’s cry.
Something is always meditating.
I know that very thing
Is my soul’s smile.

12962

If necessary,
Start with a conditional surrender-step
Until you have the capacity
To take the unconditional
Surrender-stride.

12963

God’s Compassion
Will definitely prepare you
For any challenge you encounter
On the way,
If your faith in God
Is sleepless and breathless.

12964

Each man must know
That what he has
Is only an earthly body
But what he eternally is
Is a Heavenly soul.

12965

Your heart does not interfere
In your mind’s affairs.
How does your mind dare to meddle
In your heart’s aspiration-activities?

12966

O my mind,
For years and years I have been hearing
Your sermons.
Now I need a break!
I want to hear
My heart’s whisper-messages.

12967

If you sleeplessly aspire,
You will not remain a prisoner
Of the failure-past.

12968

If you keep your heart-home
Perfectly beautiful, soulful
And immaculate,
God’s Vision-Eye and Satisfaction-Heart
Will play hide-and-seek
Inside your life.

12969

There is nothing
And there can be nothing
As useless as my mind’s
Suspicion-night
And my heart’s
Despair-grave.

12970

May my heart’s aspiration-bird
Fly and fly
Higher than the highest
Even when my mind
Is consciously enjoying
Ignorance-sleep.

12971

There is only one thing
That God treasures from your life,
And that is your heart’s soulful
And unconditional surrender-smile.

12972

God’s Compassion-Eye and
His Forgiveness-Heart
Are always ready to go
To any extreme
To liberate me from my self-chosen
Ignorance-night.

12973

Don’t be a fool!
What is there to hide?
You do not have to hide anything
From your God-messenger-friend.

12974

My Lord Supreme,
How shall I find You?
Again, how can I find myself
Except at the foot
Of my heart’s aspiration-tree?

12975

When I even try to explore
The Unknown,
I feel within me
A flood of ecstasy.

12976

There is no despair-death
For him who has surrendered
Consciously and soulfully
His earth-bound desires
To God’s Heaven-free Will.

12977

In my case,
My low self-esteem
Is my heart’s only joy-destroyer.

12978

God wants you to enjoy
Your own perfection-abundance
And not the world’s
Temptation-turbulence.

12979

If you think that you
Have the capacity to blindly blunder,
Then you must also feel that God
Has the capacity to kindly forgive
Your blunders,
Past, present and even future.

12980

If you can make your mind
Completely empty of thought,
Then you are bound to accomplish
Something divinely great
And supremely good
For your Lord Supreme.

12981

With my morning prayers and meditations,
I not only cut the roots of ignorance-tree
But also drink profusely
Wisdom-light and delight.

12982

Every day, every hour,
Every minute, every second
Your soul offers its valentine to God.
Now you just count
How many times a year
Your mind sends its valentine to God.
Perhaps not even once!

12983

Consciously or unconsciously
If you allow your mind to misguide you
How can you be a member
Of God’s inner Heart-Circle?

12984

A pure thought can fly
Easily and freely
Inside the heart’s
Vastness-satisfaction-sky.

12985

Be brave,
And put your purity to the test!
If you succeed in your examination,
Then your aspiration-bird
Is bound to soar higher than the highest.

12986

My mind’s teeming complications
Tell me
That I am already a colossal failure.
My heart’s climbing aspirations
Tell me
That God has already chosen me
To be a perfect instrument of His.

12987

O my mind,
Do not blame God.
God never wanted you
To live in darkness-ignorance-room.

12988

I would like to learn everything
From your God-pleasing heart
And nothing
From your man-pleasing mind.

12989

My mind tells me
That dark days are ahead.
My heart tells me
That bright years are ahead.

12990

Everybody knows that
It is a most difficult task
To escape his own ignorance-shadow
And enjoy supreme freedom.

12991

My Lord tells me
That my today’s heart
Is my tomorrow’s face.

12992

Life is a bad dream
When I am only for myself.
Life is a good reality
When I am an all-giving heart to all.

12993

My soul is telling me
That my aspiration-heart
Needs no introduction to God.

12994

If you dig deep in your inner life,
You will be able to avert
All man-made disasters
In your outer life.

12995

No matter what fate unfolds for me,
I shall always keep
My adamantine faith-will
In my Lord Supreme.

12996

Be brave!
Be a life-challenger!
Never be helplessly
And hopelessly crippled
By brooding despair!

12997

An impure life
Is nothing short of
An indirect form of suicide
In the inner world.

12998

Be careful!
Be not a friend of your ungrateful mind,
Which cherishes hostility
To God’s constant Compassion.

12999

A pure heart’s
God-pleasing aspiration-cry
Echoes and re-echoes
In God’s silence-flooded
Satisfaction-Heart.

13000

My Lord,
May I remember at every moment
That my sleepless faith in You
Is an unfailing friend
That will lead me only towards You.
