Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 196

Return to the table of contents

19501

I am begging God to give me
His Satisfaction-Smile.
God is begging me to give Him
My aspiration-cry.

19502

Alas, why do I fail God
When He expects great things
From my life
And good things
From my heart?

19503

Your spiritual health
Will decline very abruptly
If you do not pay attention
To your heart’s aspiration-discipline
And your life’s dedication-discipline.

19504

First your heart has to become
A God-listener,
And only then can your life become
A God-lover.

19505

The heart’s willingness-capacity
Must go side by side
With the mind’s readiness-capacity
So that the seeker can safely arrive
At the perfection-shore.

19506

The eagerness and willingness
Of the heart
Can easily break all the speed limits
Of the doubting and unaspiring mind.

19507

Why waste another minute?
Pray to God to bless you once more
With a hope-heart.

19508

Do not allow your self-doubt-mind
To destroy your heart’s
God-breath-blossoms.

19509

“God for God’s sake only!”
This has to be your final thought
Before you place yourself
At God’s Feet.

19510

If you do not leave
Your mind’s thought-jungle behind you,
Then your heart’s aspiration-garden
Will not be visited
By the denizens of the higher worlds.

19511

The stupidity of the mind
Invites only one visitor:
The giant ignorance-intruder!

19512

Do not keep your heart-door closed
When God Himself invites you
To fly with your soul’s luminosity-stars.

19513

The silence of the heart
Has and is the capacity
To control the mind’s
Turbulent thought-winds.

19514

Your heart’s faith-medicine
Will definitely relieve you
From your mind’s chronic doubt-headache.

19515

The world knows that the human mind
Is the inventor of sin.
But when will the world know
That the divine heart is the discoverer
Of all hidden virtues?

19516

May each morning-prayer of my heart
Please God the Creator’s Heart
And God the creation’s eye.

19517

I love myself dearly
Only when I can bow my head
In humble prayer to my Lord Supreme.

19518

With each prayerful thought
A God-satisfying chance blossoms
In the depth of our hearts.

19519

I do not want to know
When my golden God-day will dawn.
I just want to know,
Will it ever dawn?

19520

No, not even God
Can afford to wait indefinitely
For the transformation
Of my doubt-cherishing mind.

19521

The world will not,
Because it does not want to,
Forget
Its failure-sadness-stories.

19522

May an aspiration-mountain
Be my heart’s constant companion.
May an inspiration-river
Be my mind’s constant companion.
May a dedication-star
Be my life’s constant companion.

19523

No human mind-produced thought
Can for long eclipse
The divine beauty
Of the immortal soul.

19524

Compassion must flourish first
In every heart.
Then only will peace reign supreme
Here on earth.

19525

Every aspiration-breath of mine
Raises my life
Towards Heaven’s infinite
Light and Delight.

19526

My heart warned me
When I was devotedly listening
To my doubting mind.

19527

Alas,
My heart has not yet learnt
How to sing the gratitude-song
Without making mistakes.

19528

Our oneness-earth’s
Peace-dream
Cannot forever remain
Unfulfilled.

19529

I have decided
Once and for all
To issue death-sentences
To my doubts.

19530

I have used up all my doubts.
I have not saved
Even one single doubt
To use either for this life
Or for my next life.

19531

Do not misuse
Your Master’s compassion
If you want joy to be
Your heart’s constant companion.

19532

My oneness-heart
Feels responsible
When the world
Does anything wrong.

My division-mind
Does not think it necessary
To be responsible
Even for its own unpardonable blunders.

19533

My Lord,
I love You
More than You can possibly imagine.
“True, My child, true.

“My child,
I need you
More than you can possibly imagine.”
Not true, my Lord, not true.

19534

In order to sprint
On the aspiration-track,
What you need most
Is an eagerness-heart-cry.

19535

My meditation is perfect
Only when my restless mind
Surrenders
To my ageless and soundless heart.

19536

My Lord, I cannot love You.
What shall I do?
“My child, then love My devotees.”
My Lord, I cannot love Your devotees.
“My child, then love your purity.”
My Lord, I cannot love my purity.
“My child, then love your sincerity.”
My Lord, I cannot love my sincerity.
“My child,
Then love your sincerity-necessity.
You will eventually become
A perfect instrument of Mine
To please Me always in My own Way.”

19537

God’s Forgiveness-Boat
Sails and sails.
It never fails.
But it reaches
Its fulfilling and fulfilled destination
Only when God’s choice Hour strikes.

19538

If your God-love is unconditional,
Then only can you bypass
The lesser gods
And even the lesser God,
To be with the true God.

19539

My mind’s sound-door
I keep open
For all and sundry.

My heart’s silence-door
I keep open
Only for my Lord Beloved Supreme.

19540

A complexity-mind
Cannot permanently escape
A sorrowful descent.

19541

Each day is a golden opportunity
For God-awareness,
God-receptivity
And God-manifestation.

19542

O my stubborn unwillingness-mind,
You will soon be replaced
By my willingness-eagerness-heart.

19543

My soul-peace-bird
Soars above
My sunrise-heart-beauty
Only when
I happily and unconditionally surrender
My aspiration-breath
And dedication-life
To my Lord Supreme.

19544

When I arrived at
My aspiration-heart-home,
I discovered to my astonishment
That I had never really left.

19545

My Lord Supreme,
Do give me a pilgrim-heart
To offer my aspiration-flames
Far and wide,
Lovingly and self-givingly.

19546

The world’s insanity
Adds confusion to my mind.
The world’s beauty
Adds illumination to my heart.

19547

When I am inside the sound of my mind,
Nothing is attainable.
When I am inside the silence of my heart,
Everything, everybody and even God
Is easily attainable.

19548

Only ceaselessly self-giving lives
Can save, perfect and illumine
This world.

19549

When each and every thought of mine
I place at the Feet
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme,
I see myself sailing
With the prayerful, soulful
And fruitful peace-wind
At my back.

19550

When my heart is empty of peace,
I am at war
With everything that I accept
And everything that I reject.

19551

This is the day
When I must cut off
All my connections
With my ugliness-mind.

19552

O my heart’s sunrise-flowers,
I need you to worship my Lord Supreme.
Where are you all?
I cannot brook any further delay.

19553

If you cannot swim in the sea of tears,
How can you unburden yourself?
If you cannot unburden yourself,
How will you be able to arrive
Safely and gloriously
At your destined goal?

19554

When my heart-sky is clear and pure,
God Himself
Proudly and triumphantly
Roams there.

19555

Nobody can prevent you
From arriving at the highest height
Of your self-awareness,
Self-offering and self-perfection.

19556

May everything in my life
Be as it was before:
Once more I shall love God’s Heart
In God’s own Way,
I shall worship God’s Feet
In God’s own Way,
I shall carry God’s Life-Breath
In God’s own Way.

19557

My greatness-mind
Is not sufficient unto itself,
But my goodness-heart is.

19558

My mind is a satisfaction-stranger.
My heart is a satisfaction-dreamer,
Satisfaction-lover,
Satisfaction-sower,
Satisfaction-grower,
Satisfaction-enjoyer.

19559

Yesterday
Doubt-supremacy I enjoyed.
Today
I am enjoying doubt-intimacy.
Tomorrow
I shall enjoy oneness-ecstasy.

19560

O my mind,
What you need
Is perfection-preference
And not
World-adulation-indulgence.

19561

The sound-bondage
Frightens me.
The silence-freedom
Enlightens me.

19562

O my mind,
For God’s sake do tell me,
Who gave you the authority
To sit on the world-judgement-seat?

19563

The human mind is a product
Of only one thing:
An undisciplined thought-mart-mob.

19564

The heart is always ready
To settle its sad disputes
With the mind.
But the mind is never ready,
And will never be ready.

19565

Ambition-fire,
How hurtful you are.
Aspiration-flames,
How Godful you are.

19566

Suspicion my mind was.
Frustration my mind is.
Perdition my life will be.

19567

On second thought,
God still thinks of me,
He still loves me,
He still cares for me.

19568

Every thought
Eventually becomes a thorn
When I keep it for myself.
Every thought
Eventually becomes a rose
The moment I offer it to God.

19569

Hope never loses its beauty.
Hope never loses its joy.
Hope never loses its power.
Hope never loses God’s Compassion-Eye.

19570

When I am in my mind,
I do not know which way to go.
When I am in my heart,
Not only do I know which way to go,
But also I clearly see
That God is beckoning me.

19571

My Lord’s soul-stirring flute-melodies
Will always be heard
By my heart-ears,
If not by my mind-ears.

19572

God’s Compassion is always eager
To exchange stories
With my aspiration-heart.

19573

I have only one home,
Eternity’s Home,
And that Eternity’s Home
Is the Immortality-Boat
Of my Lord Supreme.

19574

Alas, years have flown by,
But I have not yet taken
God’s side completely,
Not to speak of
Concentrating on God’s Victory.

19575

Who will apologise for me?
No, not the human in my mind,
But the Divine in my heart.

19576

When our gratitude-heart
Comes to the fore,
Our doubting mind
Can easily be replaced
By our aspiration-heart,
Even on short notice from God.

19577

A sincere seeker knows and feels
That the beauty, purity and fragrance
Of a flower
Can easily humble his life.

19578

God wants our aspiration-flames
To rise high, higher, highest
And then dance around
His beloved planet-son-sun.

19579

God’s Compassion strengthens us
So that we do not fear
Our darkness-mind.
God’s Forgiveness energises us
So that we do not fear
Our ruthless foe:
Ignorance.

19580

When God is not the centre
Of your attention,
How do you expect to have
A satisfaction-heart?

19581

When the silence of your heart
Leads you,
There is no mind-barrier
That you cannot surmount.

19582

Make your decision:
What you want to get from life
Or what you want to give to life.
Do not allow yourself to be engulfed
In your mind’s indecision-mist.

19583

Be not afraid of
Your teeming weaknesses.
Confront them valiantly.
You are bound to succeed.

19584

My Lord Supreme,
May Your Compassion
And Forgiveness-moments
Forever live
Inside my gratitude-heart.

19585

Each time I cherish a wrong thought,
I lose my inner height
And am dwarfed by my own misfortune.

19586

My Lord, do give me the capacity
To sleeplessly knock
At Your Heart’s Compassion-Door.

19587

I am not going to waste any more time
In my mind’s thinking room.
I shall spend my time only gardening
In my heart-garden.

19588

Each attempt at perfection
Opens a new door
To the beauty of a new world.

19589

Alas, I do not know
How my heart can endure
The excruciating pangs
Of a Godless future!

19590

The mind that is flooded
With Infinity’s Peace
Is entitled to have
A universal passport to freedom.

19591

Be not trapped
Within yesterday’s unaspiring memories.
Open your heart-door
To tomorrow’s new dawn.

19592

When the activity of life
Is supported by
The serenity of the mind,
Man can accomplish
Whatever he wants to.

19593

If you are a God-obedient seeker,
A world-oneness-heart
You will be able to claim
As your own.

19594

If you do not give
Your undivided attention
To God-Utterances,
You are bound to remain inside
Your mind’s temptation-deception-room.

19595

The smiling dawn
Invites my mind to pray.
The weeping evening
Invites my heart to meditate.
And I always
Soulfully accept their invitations.

19596

Consciously you are enjoying self-doubt.
That means
Unconsciously you are paralysing
All your God-loving
And God-serving limbs.

19597

Whenever I am in the company of my mind,
It gives me a very hard time.
Whenever I am in the company of my heart,
We mutually give each other
Blossoming happiness.
Alas, I do not know why and how
I still spend so much time with my mind.

19598

I am absolutely certain
That the emptiness-mind
And the fulness-heart
Need each other
To complement each other.

19599

You are sad
That your pleasure-life is fleeting.
You will be infinitely more sad
When your heart’s aspiration-boat
Starts sinking.

19600

O my heart,
You are walking along the path
Of progress.
Although you may at times suffer
From a stumbling sadness,
Here there is no permanent defeat.
