Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 213

Return to the table of contents

21201

Every day
Everything that I learn
Comes from the compassion-silence
Of my soul.

21202

When I ask my mind
To be the guide,
It leads me on a long road
To nowhere.

21203

No human being,
No matter how undivine he is now,
Is beyond redemption.

21204

God speaks directly
To His doubt-killing
And faith-nourishing children.

21205

Is there any day
When we human beings
Do not squander
God’s Compassion-Smiles?

21206

No love-devotion-surrender-stride
Along the path of spirituality
Can ever be too short.

21207

The first thing that I do
Every morning
Is synchronise
My aspiration-heartbeat
With God’s Compassion-Heartbeat.

21208

O seeker,
If you want to hide,
Then hide your mind’s wants,
But never hide your heart’s needs.

21209

God the Forgiveness
Forgave you long ago.
But will you ever dare
To forgive yourself
For your God-unfulfilling life?

21210

Although your life
Is based on desires,
God’s Compassion-Eye
Can change your present-day world.

21211

I pray for Heaven’s blessings
Before I embark
On any God-manifestation-adventure.

21212

God is always anxious
And eager
To hear my heart’s
Tear-songs.

21213

On principle,
Spirituality does not show interest
In championing the cause
Of individuality.

21214

Eradicate
Your mind’s doubt-weeds.
Every day
Sow new faith-seeds
Inside your heart-garden.

21215

My soul
Of God-oneness-ecstasy
Orbits around
God’s Satisfaction-Pride.

21216

We make
A monumental blunder
When we deliberately delay
In our God-fulfilment-task.

21217

If your heart constantly throbs
With aspiration,
Then your God-realisation-day
Cannot remain a far cry.

21218

O my mind,
You will be able to awaken
To the supernal light
Only after you have been struck
By intense remorse.

21219

Without hope in the heart,
Without faith in the mind,
No human being
Can ever make substantial progress.

21220

In our desire-life, alas,
We have so many hopes!
Sooner or later
They get splintered to pieces.

21221

A cheerful, self-giving heart
To God
Is indeed a great architect
Of world-peace.

21222

You can be
God’s choicest instrument
Only if you please God
Long before God pleases you.

21223

During our meditation
The deeper we go,
The louder we hear
God’s Satisfaction-Applause.

21224

When we pray
With a purity-mind,
Our hopeful life soars
Into God’s boundless Promise-Sky.

21225

When lethargy attacks you,
Scolding is not enough.
Give lethargy your thunder-kick!

21226

Soulfulness
Is always apt to resonate
Inside a heart of self-offering.

21227

A heart of unconditional surrender
Is blessed every day
By newness-sweetness-dreams.

21228

What we all need
Is a God-reliance-heart-home
And not
A self-confidence-mind-mansion.

21229

I prayerfully ask God
To descend
With a new heart.

God blessingfully asks me
To ascend
With a new mind.

21230

The indulgence-pleasure of the mind
Always carries
Superiority-pride with it.

21231

You want to know
What insecurity can do.
Insecurity can eclipse
Even our heart’s inner sun.

21232

The meditation of the heart
Cheerfully leads the mind
Out of doubt-forest.

21233

Each soul is entrusted
With a supreme God-secret.
At God’s choice Hour
God reveals the secret
For God-manifestation.

21234

God is available
When I look forward
And not backward.
God is attainable
When I look within
And not without.

21235

O aspiration-famine-world,
Do not spurn,
Even for a fleeting second,
God’s Compassion-Reign.

21236

No matter how deliberately
We keep ourselves away
From God’s Compassion,
God’s Compassion-Sea will never dry.

21237

My fearful mind
Is for Compassion-God.
My cheerful heart
Is for Justice-God.

21238

A mind of belief
Can at times be
A life of bondage.
But a heart of faith
Is always
A life of freedom.

21239

My heart-aspiration
Lives in Heaven.
My life-dedication
Lives on earth.

21240

How did our ancestors succeed?
They succeeded
On the strength of their hearts’
Sleepless God-mounting cries.

21241

Only the things that I learn
In silence and from silence
Illumine and satisfy my life.

21242

Consciously and deliberately
When I do not obey my soul-bird,
Sleepless sorrows torture my heart.

21243

Alas, why do I every day
Waste my time
Hiding in vain
From my Lord’s Compassion-Eye?

21244

Even your dearest
May not understand your mind
Or feel your heart’s sufferings.
Therefore, take shelter
In your heart’s illumination-meditation.
Yours will be
The all-fulfilling satisfaction.

21245

O my heart’s forgotten hope-river,
I do not know how
I can once more swim in you
To arrive at
My God-satisfaction-destination.

21246

Only an aspiration-heart
Can and does sing
God’s Universal Heart-Songs.

21247

You do not have to die
To be indifferent to world-criticism.
You just have to climb up
High, higher, highest,
Along with your heart’s
Heaven-climbing aspiration-flames.

21248

Since there is nothing useless,
Nothing meaningless
In God’s creation, O seeker,
How can you allow yourself to ignore
Any God-manifested vision?

21249

Be not free with
Your God-fulfilment-promises.
Be free with
Your man-service-life.

21250

Each time
I surrender myself cheerfully
To God’s Will,
I see right in front of me
A free and fair highway
Leading to the Home
Of my Beloved Supreme.

21251

Unconditional surrender
Is the greatest contribution
Made by a sleepless aspiration-heart.

21252

Attach yourself
To the blossoming beauty within,
And detach yourself
From the brooding desire-mind.

21253

Unlike the human mind,
The divine heart knows
That we can never overestimate
God’s Compassion and Forgiveness.

21254

O seeker,
Smile and smile
To lessen the strength
Of your inner struggle.

21255

God’s unhorizoned Grace
Enters into our hearts
Not to surprise us,
But to awaken us.

21256

The inner voice
Always warns us
Long before
It reprimands us.

21257

My Lord Supreme,
May I be blessed every morning
By the magnet
Of Your Compassion-flooded Feet.

21258

Alas,
I do not know why and how
My mind ruthlessly attacks
Everything that my heart does
Or even decides to do.

21259

Close your mind-book
Completely,
And then open your heart-book
Slowly, lovingly and devotedly.

21260

God never causes
Our embarrassment.
He only leads us
To our enlightenment,
Which He has given us
As our birthright.

21261

After becoming a seeker,
If I do not do the right thing
And become the right person,
God tells me that He Himself
Will be the real loser.

21262

Every day
My aspiration-heart embarks
Cheerfully and proudly
On God-pleasing adventures.

21263

My God-manifestation-possibility
Is indeed an express and perfect
Silent Message
From God Himself.

21264

Each sincere prayer
Has the wings to fly
Not only from
Hope to hope-skies,
But also from
Fulfilment to fulfilment-stars.

21265

No human being can live
Without heart-hope.
No human being can live
Without God-Compassion.
No God can be satisfied
Without man-perfection.

21266

When I look at my unaspiring mind,
I am simply shocked to see
Its dangerous overweight!

21267

My compassionate Lord
Blessingfully respects me
When I devotedly expect less.

21268

An ingratitude-soul
Gets a send-off from Heaven
With no welcome from earth.

21269

God exposed me publicly
Only to perfect me and claim me
Inwardly and permanently.

21270

If you do not discipline
Your earth-bound desire-mind,
You will never be able to have
A trouble-torture-free life.

21271

I have two prayers every day:
I pray to God for the early death
Of my doubting mind
And for the everlasting life
Of my aspiring heart.

21272

A heart of divine love
Will always go far beyond
Earth-bound limits.

21273

God always wants His heart-children
To study at
His simplicity-purity-school.

21274

O my heart,
Just bring to the fore
Your divinity’s light
And put one fearless foot
In front of the other
While you are walking
Inside your darkest mind-forest.

21275

Do not wrestle with
Your restless mind.
Meditate on
Your soul’s delight
To silence and illumine
The pride of your ignorance-mind.

21276

I have come to realise
That my aspiration-revival
Is my only heart-survival.

21277

If we do not pray and meditate,
Then there will be no way for us
To protect ourselves
From complacency-decay.

21278

My Lord,
Your Will is my way.
My Lord,
Your Way is my only goal.

21279

When I remain inside my heart,
God becomes quite familiar.
But when I am inside my mind,
God is not only unknown
But also unknowable.

21280

I feel sad
When I do not see my soul.
I feel extremely sad
When I do not feel my soul’s presence
Inside my heart.
I am doomed to disappointment
When I do not hear anything about my soul
From my Lord Supreme.

21281

The silence of my heart
Has finally silenced and illumined
My endless mind-sermons.

21282

God immediately and incessantly applauds
When His earth-transformation-team
Succeeds in manifesting Him
Even in a small measure.

21283

How much is God-realisation these days?
The price of God-realisation
Will forever remain
Unimaginably high.

21284

Alas,
Every day I spend my time
Inside my deplorable mind
And not
Inside my adorable heart.

21285

Every day I depend on
My sincerity and determination
To renew
My God-fulfilment-contract.

21286

When the human mind
Is left to itself,
Our God-fulfilment-promise
Will forever remain a far cry.

21287

God’s Compassion is at work
When He appreciates us.
Our sincerity is at work
When we adore God.

21288

When a seeker realises God,
God tells him to make a choice:
Either to enjoy His infinite Bliss
Or to throw his heart and soul
Into God-manifestation on earth.

21289

God depends on me
Only when my life becomes
A ceaselessly unconditional breath.

21290

I do not want to know
What God plans to do with my life.
I just want to know
If I can remain eternally inside
His Heart-Garden.

21291

My soul’s brilliance
Will eternally outshine
My life’s achievement-splendours.

21292

I thought that I had done so much
For God-manifestation,
But God took one look
At my God-manifestation-progress-report
And burst into roaring laughter.

21293

As there is no difference
Between the mind of the intellect
And the voice of the intellect,
Even so, there is no difference
Between the heart of the seeker
And the life of the seeker.

21294

God keeps His Heart’s Oneness-Door
Always open
Not only for my dear friends
But also for my stark adversaries.

21295

When I look at my mind,
I see nothing but a life
Of lost opportunities.
When I look at my heart,
I see nothing but a life
Of blossoming opportunities.

21296

Why am I crying?
I am crying because
My Beloved Supreme
Has come to see me,
The human in me.
Why am I smiling?
I am smiling because
My Beloved Supreme
Has come to take me,
Both the divine in me
And the undivine in me.

21297

If we do not give God
The exact thing He wants from us,
He will never be satisfied
With a compromise.

21298

Our enlightenment-progress
Depends on how seriously we have taken
Our life-detachment-process.

21299

What is faith and what is doubt?
Faith is something
That God’s Heart plays with.
Doubt is something
That my mind plays with.

21300

How have I made my life secure?
I have done absolutely the right thing.
What is the right thing?
At every moment I listen
To God’s Command,
Seated at His Compassion-Feet.
