Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 192

Return to the table of contents

19101

If your life is
A constant surrender-song
To God,
Then in God’s Eye
You are infinitely greater
Than any crowned king.

19102

God’s Hand
Will definitely reach down
To help you
If He gets the invitation
From your humility-heart-hut.

19103

God is begging all the seekers
To keep their spiritual priorities
Straight and pure.

19104

When I live in the sweet paradise
Of God-surrender,
I feel at every moment
That I am manifesting God’s God-Light
Here on earth.

19105

It seems to me
That I can survive all attacks
Except one:
Expectation-attack.

19106

When our mind falls into
The pride-trap,
Frustration is bound
To follow it there.

19107

Each time I dive deep within
I see clearly
A shortage of God-manifestation
In my life.

19108

Behold,
My gratitude-heart has enabled me
To soar with God
In His Oneness-Joy-Plane.

19109

I know for sure
That my Lord Beloved Supreme
Is not far away from me.
He is just beyond
My mind’s ego-screen.

19110

Two instruments I practise
Every morning:
Mind-inspiration-piano
And heart-aspiration-flute.

19111

What is the difference
Between faith and doubt?
Faith is sleeplessly loyal
To the Inner Pilot.
Doubt is invariably disloyal
To the Inner Pilot.

19112

If we allow our mind
To be doubtful and suspicious,
And our heart to be insecure and impure,
Then one day,
To our wide surprise,
We will see that we have become
Incredibly hospitable to hostile forces.

19113

I shall follow
My compassionate Lord Supreme
No matter where.
I shall follow
My inspiration-soul-bird
No matter where.

19114

O my mind,
No more will you be able to fool me
With your false silence-peace.

19115

O my mind,
When are you going to realise
That you are limited
Only by your unlimited impurity?

O my heart,
When are you going to realise
That you are limited
Only by your unlimited insecurity?

O my life,
When are you going to realise
That you are limited
Only by your unlimited unreadiness?

19116

Each day is a new day.
Each new day is a new way
To see the Vision-Eye
And sit at the Compassion-Feet
Of your Lord Supreme.

19117

No, never!
Ingratitude-weeds cannot grow
In a prayerful and soulful
Devotion-heart-garden.

19118

May each day inspire me
To become a gratitude-surrender-seeker
And to remain in my Lord’s
Golden Heart-Boat.

19119

Why do I meditate?
I meditate precisely because
My meditation proudly carries me
To the shore I seek.

19120

When we become
The wildfire of enthusiasm,
Nothing can remain unaccomplished!

19121

Finally my unaspiring mind
Is rescued
From endless reluctance-river.

19122

If we have a genuine
Aspiration-hunger,
God will definitely bless us
With the most delicious feast.

19123

The Infinite within Divinity
Is as sure
As the beauty inside a flower.

19124

God is happy only when
The gratitude-surrender-seekers
Beat His manifestation-drum.

19125

Only those will be successful
In the spiritual life
Who have the indomitable courage
To face their life-problem-challenges.

19126

My heart’s gratitude-tears
Have finally washed away
My mind’s unwillingness-barriers.

19127

God is so happily and proudly
Welcoming
My success-life and progress-heart.

19128

Doubt-producing minds
Will eventually be bound
To beat a shamelessly speedy retreat.

19129

How can we expect
To make our mind peaceful
And our heart blissful
If we do not keep God
As the centre of our attention
All the time?

19130

Only the negative minds
Are invited to work
In life’s unhappiness-factory.

19131

Can you not see
That your Inner Pilot
At every moment
Is steering your life-boat
Towards His own Delight-Harbour?

19132

You must never allow
Your doubting mind
To strangle
Your blossoming hope-heart.

19133

O my heart,
Be a sleeplessly soaring bird
So that no frustration
Can ever dare to cripple you.

19134

You can shorten your spirituality-road
And quicken your speed
If you are under the guidance
Of a true, able and spiritually rich Master.

19135

A sleeplessly desiring life
Must without fail
Include a slow but certain
Spiritual death.

19136

His aspiring heart
Is always homesick
For Eternity’s Peace,
Infinity’s Light
And Immortality’s Delight.

19137

At last my fractured trust
In mankind
Has been completely cured
By God’s Compassion-flooded Eye.

19138

You do not have to surprise the world.
You should only try to surprise yourself,
Especially your mind,
By becoming a chosen instrument of God.

19139

If you are always concerned
With yourself,
Then your heart-door
You will never be able to keep open
For God, the Supreme Guest, to enter.

19140

Abandon not your heart’s helpless cry,
For your heart’s helpless cry
Is the magnet that pulls God
Towards your life-breath.

19141

He who treasures you
Is your only true friend,
And that Friend is none other than
God Himself.

19142

I call it faith.
God calls it
His own evolving Experience
In and through my life.

19143

My unconditional surrender to God
Is the only strength I need
To make myself truly happy
And fulfilled.

19144

O my depression-mind,
Can you not see
That every day God is planting
His own Smile-Seeds inside you?

19145

I came not into this world
To fulfil my ego’s
Admiration-need
But to fulfil my soul’s
God-Satisfaction-Promise.

19146

If you are sleeplessly devoted
To God-manifestation,
Then God will definitely bless your heart
With Heaven-climbing aspiration-flames.

19147

O my shameless mind,
How long are you going to remain
In diametric opposition
To the Will of my
Lord Beloved Supreme?

19148

May my life receive
Every day
God’s blissful Smile
And His blessingful Pride.

19149

May my meditation
Lose its heart
Inside God’s Silence-Eye.

19150

Beauty divine sings
Only for the illumining soul
And the self-giving heart.

19151

God does not ask me
About my previous failures.
He only asks me
About my present
Self-giving determination
To reach the Goal.

19152

God is not only
Inside my heart
But also inside
My mind-jungle.

19153

When God saw my heart’s
Surrender-door wide open,
He cried and cried
With boundless joy.

19154

Every step I take ahead
Is indeed the fulfilment
Of a new promise
Of my heart.

19155

Alas, how stupid we are!
We give more importance
To our mind’s sadness
Than to our heart’s gladness.

19156

Surrender-road leads us
To the perfection-destination
Infinitely sooner
Than any other road.

19157

Although impatience
Fights against time
Quite often,
It never wins.

19158

There are many soaring birds
In our heart-sky,
But the faith-bird
Flies higher than the highest.

19159

The silence of the mind
Is powerful.
The silence of the heart
Is fruitful.
The silence of the soul
Is Godful.

19160

Do not be a fool!
Never shake hands
With the giant desire-demon.

19161

Each self-giving action
Is supremely brighter
Than the Heavenly stars.

19162

The love of the heart
And the compassion of the soul
Never suffer from fatigue.

19163

The hesitation of the mind
Is the unanswered
Question of life.

19164

God never thought
That I was so stupid!
I never thought
That God was so forgiving.

19165

Each impure thought
Takes us farther away
From our aspiring heart-land.

19166

At every moment
We have to decide
Whether we want
The division-desiring mind
Or the union-aspiring heart.

19167

Every desire-dream
Eventually ends
In frustration-reality.

19168

I do not need my mind’s
Power-voice.
I need only my heart’s
Silence-choice.

19169

When your aspiring heart
Asks you not to mix
With your desire-mind,
Do not turn a deaf ear!

19170

God asks me to be
The best friend of my silence-heart
And to be always careful
Of my sound-mind.

19171

I do not calculate anything
In advance,
For that is the task
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme.
I just pray and meditate,
Him to please in His own Way.

19172

God can be anxious to command me
Only if I am eagerly waiting
For His express Command.

19173

It seems that God’s Compassion
And man’s frustration
Are ruling this unaspiring earth.

19174

Only an aspiring heart
Will find the vision-light
To fulfil God
In God’s own Way.

19175

Man is endlessly repeating
His blunders,
At times, it seems, deliberately.
Yet God has not given up on him.

19176

Perfection-peaks are not inaccessible.
What we all need
Is a readiness-mind
And a willingness-heart.

19177

The general decay of our faith
In God
Is not only displeasing
But also disheartening God.

19178

I get satisfaction-joy
Only when I receive from God
His blessingful Appreciation
For what I do for Him
And what I am to Him.

19179

My Lord Supreme,
Immediately do open
My willingness-heart
And shut
My unwillingness-mind.

19180

In the presence of my Lord Supreme,
No matter what happens
I get an inexpressible inner thrill.

19181

I must and must abandon
Once and for all
My helplessness-thinking
And helplessness-feeling.

19182

When we are in front of ignorance-sea,
God wants us to be
Brave swimmers.
When we are in front of a high mountain,
He wants us to be
Brave climbers.
No obstacle in our way must prevent us
From reaching our destined goal.

19183

Those who have taken shelter
Consciously and soulfully
In the Benediction-Heart
of the Lord Supreme
Will not fail.
No, not a single one will fail!

19184

The knowledge of the mind
Comes and goes.
The wisdom of the heart
Not only remains
Permanently
But also increases
Immeasurably.

19185

Do not deny and do not defy
The old ways of tradition,
For tradition often embodies
Both the beauty and the duty
Of God Himself.

19186

How can you make
Any satisfactory progress
If you do not or cannot believe
That your Master always understands you
To the core?

19187

If you cannot banish desire
From your God-searching mind
And God-pleasing heart,
How can you have
Divinity’s satisfaction-joy?

19188

My Lord Supreme,
When I soulfully meditate,
Please bless me with only one boon:
Grant me the ability to immerse myself
In the divine sublimity
Of my God-manifesting soul.

19189

I must shatter
My old doubts and fears
That God-realisation
And God-manifestation
Are not meant for me.

19190

The uncertainty of the changing times
Will certainly be transformed
By the beauty, purity and divinity
Of God’s Eternal Time.

19191

When I am in my deep meditation,
I go far beyond all the horizons
Of my mental thoughts,
And it is then that I feel
That I am only for God.

19192

If your heart does not reach out
To the suffering world,
How can you ever dream of pleasing God
In God’s own Way?

19193

When my aspiration climbs up
High, higher, highest,
I laugh and laugh
At my mind’s ultimate frontiers.

19194

My heart, your future perfection
Is already assured
By God Himself.
What you need is constant expansion
Of your receptivity-delight.

19195

Is there any heart
That does not care for perfection?
Again, is there any life
That dares to be perfect?

19196

Do not find fault
With the self-indulgent ones.
Let them wait
For God’s supremely chosen Hour.

19197

Today my heart
Has said good-bye for good
To insecurity,
And my mind, to doubt.

19198

My Lord Supreme, do bless me
With a special blessing:
I wish to remain permanently
An aspiration-heart
And a dedication-life.

19199

O my mind,
The doubts that snatch away
Your heart’s happiness-light
Must not be your friends
No, not even fleeting friends.

19200

Surprise after surprise
Will arrive at your life-door
If you make your heart
A constant consecration to God’s Will.
