Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 176

Return to the table of contents

17501

My Lord, in my case,
Not only Your Compassion-Eye
But also Your Forgiveness-Heart
Started loving me
Right from the very beginning.

17502

I am so proud
That I have at least two things
To make my Lord Supreme happy,
Truly happy:
My tearful heart
And my prayerful mind.

17503

Every day
My mind is compelled
To pay the unhappiness-penalty
To God, the Justice Supreme.

17504

Peace,
I have come to realise
That you are the only rightful owner
Of my aspiration-heart.

17505

True, my mind had
A slow doubt-start.
But my heart will have
A very strong faith-finish.

17506

I must realise that every day
I shall have to face
My frustration-enemy
If I want to succeed in life.

17507

Doubt and suspicion
Can never get a visa
To enter into the heart-country.

17508

My Lord Supreme,
I am so grateful to You
That You take the trouble
Of changing my plans.

17509

My Lord, my Lord, my Lord,
Forgive me, forgive me, forgive me.
I took You for granted;
Therefore, I failed.
But now I shall make another attempt.
This time I shall sleeplessly pray to You
So that You can inundate my prayer-life
With Your infinite Compassion.

17510

My Lord,
May my heart always remain
The gratitude-host
And may You remain
The Satisfaction-Guest.

17511

I have lost my determination-mind.
My Lord tells me
That it is not a big loss.
I have lost my aspiration-heart.
My Lord tells me
That it is a very big loss,
A real loss.

17512

My Lord Supreme
Proudly treasures each moment
Of my innocence-mind.

17513

Yesterday
I was volcano-pride.
Today
I am self-pity.
Tomorrow
I shall be heart-aspiration.

17514

God wants me to thrive
In my heart-garden
And not just to survive
In my mind-forest.

17515

I am so happy
That my life has made
A permanent contract
With God-obedience.

17516

Each soulful prayer of my heart
Is a blessingful inspiration
Descended from God’s Compassion-Eye.

17517

The mind-town is full
Of useless absurdities.
The heart-village is full
Of fruitful surprises.

17518

Each time I offer my Lord Supreme
A pure thought,
He blesses me
With an angel-smile.

17519

Each time I serve God
Unconditionally,
I herald the advent
Of His supreme Victory
On earth.

17520

May my life
Grow into
My heart’s
Blossoming faith.

17521

My aspiration-heart
Every day hungers
For thrilling and illumining news
Of my soul.

17522

Alas, alas,
Each thought in my mind
Is complexity-futility’s nightmare!

17523

True,
Nothing human is perfect.
But it is we
Who have to make everything human
Divine and perfect.

17524

Before temptation comes
To threaten you,
Take shelter at God’s
Protection-Feet.

17525

Patience, patience, patience —
If you want your soul’s peace
To thrive
Inside your aspiration-heart.

17526

Now is the time
For me to start keeping
My God-manifestation-promises.

17527

Go far beyond
The domain of the obvious.
You will be able
To make God happy,
And you will be able
To make yourself happy, too.

17528

I succeed in everything I do
Because I never bow
At the altar of my mind’s
Confusion-night.

17529

Perfection
Is man’s unwritten song
To God.

Satisfaction
Is God’s unwritten song
To man.

17530

I must know that
Even my complexity-mind
Has to live in the world of aspiration
If I want to succeed.

17531

My Lord, my Lord,
Please tell me
If ever my ignorance-mind
Will stop playing
The doubt-game.

17532

Art is humanity’s
Ascending,
Awakening aspiration-cry.
Art is Divinity’s
Descending,
Flowering manifestation-smile.

17533

When God the creation
Asks God’s Compassion-Eye
To come down and feed
The hungry heart
Of the seeker,
The Compassion-Eye of God
Immediately comes down
And does the needful
Unreservedly.

But when God the Creator
Asks the gratitude-heart of the seeker
To come up and stay inside
His own Satisfaction-Heart,
The gratitude-heart of the seeker
Is always late, shockingly late.

17534

Alas,
How can this world of ours
Be freed from insecurity-eye
And impurity-face?

17535

Nobody can have
The all-illumining wisdom-life
Without having studied
The humility-lessons
In God’s inner School.

17536

God commands me to be playful
When He comes to me.
God requests me to be soulful
When I go to Him.

17537

O my unaspiring mind,
Leave me alone!
Leave me alone!
I do not want to live inside
The jungle-density
Of your useless thoughts.

17538

Once you have loved God
Soulfully, devotedly and unreservedly,
God will never accept your rejection —
No, not even your resignation.

17539

My Lord Beloved Supreme
Has time and again said to me
That just one glance
Of His Compassion-Eye
Is enough to help me
Challenge and conquer
The ignorance-sea.

17540

An unaspiring thought
Weakens us.
An unwilling mind
Destroys us.

17541

The desiring mind knows how
To blame God
Unnecessarily and endlessly.
The aspiring heart knows how
To love God and claim God
Sleeplessly and breathlessly.

17542

My mind’s desire-chains
Will definitely break one day.
My heart’s aspiration-plane
Will definitely fly one day
In my soul’s unhorizoned sky.

17543

Not true, not true, not true,
If anybody tells you
That the transcendental Truth
Is unteachable.
The infinite God Himself
Is teachable.

17544

Every morning
I collect cheerful souls
And proudly place them
At the Feet of my Lord Supreme.

17545

Every morning
I collect tearful hearts
And soulfully place them
At the Feet of my Beloved Supreme.

17546

There was a time
When I was a doubt-millionaire.
But now my Lord Supreme
Has made me a faith-billionaire.

17547

I wanted to be
A heavyweight in greatness.
But my Lord Supreme has made me
The heaviest weight of goodness.

17548

My Lord Supreme tells me
That only a heart of peace
Is the rightful owner
Of His world.

17549

Do you want to make progress
Fast, faster and fastest?
Then do not allow yourself to remain
In the grip of your mind’s fixed ideas.

17550

I shall no longer be satisfied
With the fleeting flickers
Of my mind’s confidence-candles.

17551

I shall no longer listen to
The weeping voice
Of my trembling insecurity-heart.

17552

I do not want
To keep any longer
The tortured and fractured mind
Of a thinker.

I want to remain only
Inside the beautiful heart
Of a God-seeker, God-server
And God-lover.

17553

The body
Has a liking for laziness.
The vital
Has a liking for boldness.
The mind
Has a liking for newness.
The heart
Has a liking for frankness.
The soul
Has a liking for fulness.

17554

God wants me
To sweeten my heart’s joy,
Not only for those
Who are around me,
But also for all human beings
On earth.

17555

May my mind become
A success-story of God.
May my heart become
A progress-song of God.

17556

Do you really want to become
A totally surrendered God-seeker,
God-lover and God-server?
Then I am telling you
That it is not too late to start now!

17557

The ghost
Of my deplorable misdeeds
Disappeared
The moment my mind devotedly sat
At God’s Forgiveness-Feet.

17558

Each time
I sleeplessly, soulfully
And self-givingly meditate,
I add my soul’s dream-beauty
And my heart’s reality-joy
To my life’s
Transformation-perfection.

17559

God’s Oneness-Heart
Will come to speak to you
If you cast aside
Your mind’s selfishness-blinders.

17560

Imitation
Stagnates us.
Aspiration
Liberates us.
Surrender
Fulfils the divine in us.

17561

O God-lover,
Allow yourself not
To be imprisoned
By your ignorance-cherishing mind!

17562

If your mind
Does not aspire,
It will speedily
Plus hopelessly
Be lost.

17563

For the heart
There is no such thing
As not believing in the impossible.
The heart’s God-oneness-capacity
Can easily believe in the impossible.

17564

Alas,
How can I liberate myself
From my daily
Futility-anguish?

17565

One day I must reach
The perfection-shore,
Although it is now
An Eternity away.

17566

Once we free our minds
From doubt-shackles,
Our lives will not remain
The same!

17567

A self-giving heart
Is a sure sign
Of inner progress.

17568

I am caught between
My heart’s simplicity-needs
And my mind’s complexity-wants.

17569

My Lord Supreme,
Please tell me
How I can be happy
And remain happy
For the entire day.
“My child,
Give Me immediately
Your expectation-bondage-chain.
I shall fly you
In My own Freedom-Ecstasy-Plane
In My Infinity’s Heart-Sky.”

17570

My Lord Supreme,
How can I make You truly happy?
“My child,
Consciously and soulfully
Try to share My earth-burden.”

17571

My Lord,
You are Your Compassion-Eye.
How I wish
I could be my gratitude-fragrance.

17572

My Lord,
Do not allow me to enjoy
My mind’s illusion-skies.
Please allow me only to enjoy
My heart’s perfection-progress.

17573

My Lord, my Lord,
Please tell me that there will be
No next time for me.
This is the only way, my Lord,
That I shall be able to be more serious,
Infinitely more serious,
In my self-giving to You
At every moment.

17574

My Lord,
Does Heaven need anything?
“Yes, My child, it does.
It needs your surrender-smile
And gratitude-tears.”

17575

My Lord Supreme,
How can I go everywhere
To sing Your Victory-Song
And spread Your Manifestation-Light?
“My child,
Be the possessor of an open heart.
Your open heart will carry you
Everywhere.”

17576

My Lord,
When will I be able to hear
Heaven’s Voice?
“My child,
You will be able to hear
Heaven’s Voice
When you stop your desire-jumps
And start your aspiration-journey.”

17577

Each time I breathe in
Purity-fragrance,
I come one step closer
To my Lord Beloved Supreme.

17578

O my heart,
The world may desert you,
But you will never be lost,
For my Lord Supreme
Definitely cares for you.

17579

May my daily prayer to God
Sow new hope-seeds
In the broken and hopeless hearts.

17580

Ignorance-poison we drink
Right from the very time
We first see the light of day.

17581

O my mind,
Be not an old prisoner
Of binding, blinding
And strangling thoughts.

17582

Self-oblivion
Is not self-perfection.
Self-illumination
Is self-perfection.

17583

My life’s oneness-flow
And my heart’s fulness-glow
Together live.

17584

No more
My mind’s desire-clouds
Can cover
My heart’s aspiration-sun.

17585

My ego-self,
When will you make friends
With divine love, divine devotion
And divine surrender
To make me consciously aware
Of my divinity’s height?

17586

My mind needs
Constant newness.
My heart needs
Constant cheerfulness.
My life needs
Constant fulness.
Only then
Can I ever become perfect.

17587

True illumining and fulfilling
Satisfaction
Can dawn only in the heart’s
All-loving freedom.

17588

An aspiring heart knows
Neither the mind’s division
Nor the life’s separation.

17589

You fool!
Do you not know
That there is no such thing
As security
For your blind ego?

17590

I am no longer
A restless monkey-mind.
I am now
A breathless deer-heart.

17591

I want to go far beyond
The domain of the mind’s
So-called goodness.
I want to live inside my heart’s
True oneness-perfection.

17592

My heart gets joy
By believing everything.
My mind gets pleasure
By believing nothing.

17593

An aspiring heart
Does not suffer
From emptiness, isolation
And frustration.

17594

Because you have kept your mind
As your sole boss,
You have the exorbitant need
For continuous supremacy.

17595

A heart of newness-dream
Gives birth
To a lasting breath
Of fulness-reality.

17596

O my mind,
With your curiosity-motivation-eye,
How do you expect
Either to dive within or to fly above?

17597

I see my goal
Beckoning me
Only when I prayerfully converse
With my soul.

17598

O my heart,
Do not indulge in depression.
O my mind,
Do not indulge in exasperation.
You both
Have extraordinary things to do
To fulfil the Lord Supreme.

17599

Each man is the owner
Of zigzag problems,
But God is the Owner
Of straight Answers.

17600

You want to know
What God’s Grace has done for me.
God’s Grace has done the impossible.
Before, I was my mind’s
Unwillingness-sea.
And now I have become my heart’s
Willingness-mountain.
