Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 231

Return to the table of contents

23001

Check your aspiration-pulse
Early in the morning.
Check your dedication-pulse
At noon.
Check your surrender-pulse
In the evening.

23002

You are unhappy
Because your heart
Is contradicting
Your eyes.

23003

If you have
A time-squandering mind,
Yours will be a life
Of most deplorable dissatisfaction.

23004

God likes
Many things I do,
But He especially likes
Our silence-heart-conversation.

23005

Today
I have come to learn
That my mind’s insincerity
And my heart’s insecurity
Have a common source:
Self-deception.

23006

Everything else is complicated
In our human life
Save and except the beauty of Light
And the fragrance of Delight.

23007

Each day’s death
Makes the desire-mind
And the aspiration-heart
Equally unhappy.

23008

The final hour of ignorance-night
Does not come on its own.
We work towards it
And then announce it.

23009

Let us be prepared to welcome
The fast-approaching promise-blossoms
Of a new century.

23010

Today
I told my bragging mind
That it was sending me
To the mental asylum,
And I told my lagging heart
That it was forcing me
To be a helpless street-beggar.

23011

My God-surrender-life
Is
My Heaven-entrance-assurance.

23012

When I am in
My highest consciousness,
Everything feels like God
To me.

23013

I do my highest meditation
Only when my soul
Unconditionally smiles at me.

23014

My Lord,
Do come and confiscate
My mind today.
And tomorrow
Obliterate it totally.

23015

I want to tell God
Once more
How great I am.
God wants to hear from me
Once more
That I need the breath
Of surrender-life.

23016

Alas,
You have no aspiration.
Yet
Your mind is ever rich
In expectation.

23017

My Lord’s Eyes become
A Beauty-Fragrance-Garland
When I claim God
As my very own.

23018

A God-offering heart
Can neither be daunted
Nor haunted.

23019

A heart of sorrow
Comes into existence
From desire-tragedies
Of the past.

23020

At times
God lives inside
My determination-mind.
At times
God lives inside
My dedication-life.
But I would like
God to be always inside
My aspiration-heart.

23021

O seeker,
Are you such a fool
That you have to allow
The negative forces
To admire and choose
Your mind?

23022

O my soul,
To you I owe everything,
For constantly
You are inspiring
My very life-breath.

23023

A self-giving heart
Is a God-fulfilling
Earth-representative.

23024

Alas, my mind weeps
A river of tears
When my desire-life
Is not daily fulfilled.

23025

My vital longs to live
To enjoy its world-supremacy
Indefinitely on earth.
My heart wants to live
To enjoy its God-intimacy
Permanently on earth.

23026

Today,
Alas, I have given God
A severe headache
By telling Him that my spiritual life
Has sadly failed.

23027

A cheerful and eager
God-surrender-heart
Has the fastest speed
To arrive at the God-Destination.

23028

When the aspiring heart
Is misunderstood,
The seeker’s breath
Will automatically be tormented.

23029

How can you be happy
When none of your deeds
Mirror any of your soul-dreams?

23030

God at times
Deliberately hides from us
To create in us
Our God-discovery-hunger.

23031

God is always anxious and eager
To shorten the distance
To our journey’s goal.

23032

Today
My doubtful mind and I
Were forced to wade through
A great deal of misery
For ignoring God’s Compassion-Eye.

23033

Since God is
A good listener,
Can I not be
A great speaker?

23034

Today,
From my God-disobedience,
God has suffered the most powerful blow.

23035

My mind learns earthly lessons
Quickly.
My heart learns Heavenly lessons
Self-givingly.
My soul learns both earthly
And Heavenly lessons
Intuitively.

23036

As God does not allow any thought
To enter into His Mind unbidden,
Even so,
I shall not associate myself
With any unaspiring thought.

23037

Today, alas,
I have become the dying breath
Of my shattered hopes.

23038

God cries
For a dependable man.
Man cries
For an understandable God.
God cries
For an inseparable man.
Man cries
For a lovable God.

23039

Today
God-unbelieving minds
Are bound to be devastated
By their own ignorance-volcano.

23040

Before the ultimate God-realisation,
Everybody thinks and feels
That God is unknowable.

23041

The age of God-obedience will begin
When we realise
That God’s Way is the only way.

23042

Today, alas,
My negativity-mind
Is destroying
My aspiration-heart-garden.

23043

O seeker,
Do not feel that you are
Doomed to disappointment.
Your failure-breath
Before long will vanish.
Wake up!
Make a fresh attempt.
Victory’s crown is awaiting you.

23044

God tells the human mind
That it is hard for Him
To keep it in His Heart-Garden.

23045

Today
I seriously warned
My unaspiring mind
That there are
Destructive sufferings ahead.

23046

My heart-hotel
Has no vacancy,
For God remains there always
As a permanent Guest.

23047

Today
God is saddened to discover
That I have buried
All my God-realisation-hope
Consciously and deliberately.

23048

For a God-lover,
A miserable day is the day
When he fails to please God
In His own Way.

23049

I do not care for
A precious mind,
But I do care for
A gracious heart.

23050

O seeker,
Pray to God to bless you
With a purity-heart-flower
That will never wither.

23051

My Lord,
Do tell me how many times
My mind has deceived You
And how many times
My heart has disappointed You.

23052

Today
Most painfully I have come to learn
That no matter how hard I try,
My mind’s dark riddles
Will remain unsolved.

23053

God is every day counting
My God-pleasing deeds.
Therefore,
I must be sleeplessly careful
In all that I say and do.

23054

Today
I have asked my mind
Whether it has accepted its desire-slavery
Happily or unhappily.

23055

The eyes of a God-loving seeker
Are the perfect expression
Of his all-embracing heart.

23056

Even the devil
Was shocked to see him
After his own aspiration
Had deserted him.

23057

Today
I am absolutely certain
That my God-disobedience-footsteps
Will not only falter,
But also meet with a serious accident
And severe punishment.

23058

A purity-heart
Has the capacity
To shield us
From the mind’s doubt-storm.

23059

At long last,
Today I made
My Lord Beloved Supreme
Happy
With my heart’s
Climbing cries
And my life’s
Brightening smiles.

23060

Today
God’s Compassion-Eye
Sees that I am an aspiration-dwarf.
Therefore, God’s Compassion-Eye
Does not want God to be
A Self-Transcendence-Giant.

23061

I do have faith
In God’s Compassion.
But alas, I need faith
In God’s Patience.

23062

Only my heart’s sleepless tears
Can keep my mind
Out of ignorance-prison.

23063

Today,
Alas, God has confided in my soul
That He is not satisfied
With my heart’s aspiration-homework.

23064

If you are shopping
In the desire-market,
Nobody will flatter you.
On the contrary,
The cosmic gods may batter you.

23065

God the Teacher
Is always eager
To give you the highest marks
In your soul’s fastest progress
And your heart’s highest evolution.

23066

If you want to live
In God’s Heart-Nest,
Then you have to be
Devoted and faithful
To His Heart-Nest.

23067

If all our good qualities
Are traced to one source,
That source is undoubtedly
Obedience.

23068

Claim God’s Vision
As your own, very own,
Since you want to bask
In God’s Vision-Glories.

23069

Your impurity-mind
Will never be able to blight
God’s Compassion-Eye-Delight.

23070

Because of your soul’s promise
To God’s Eye,
And because of your heart’s promise
To God’s Heart,
God has accepted the challenge
Of transforming your life.

23071

Think only of others’
Good, divine and self-giving qualities
To stay inside God’s Heart-Garden,
Instead of your own mind-jungle.

23072

Gossip-mongers, beware!
Today you are enjoying
Malicious pleasure-gossip
But tomorrow you may become
The most deplorable gossip-victim.

23073

The Absolute Lord Supreme
Is only for those
Who are sleeplessly singing God-songs
In God’s own Way
And carrying only His Tune.

23074

My life was built on
My soul’s promise.
My life is now being built on
My heart’s hope.
My life shall be built on
God’s Smile.

23075

Although I am losing badly
On the battlefield of life,
I am absolutely sure
That I shall ultimately
Sound my victory-drum.

23076

If you want to remain always
In your heart-garden,
God will be there with you,
Full of Gratitude and Pride.

23077

Gratitude
Is my aspiration-heart’s
Only unfailing God-searchlight.

23078

Do not forget
That inside your mind
Is your life’s imperfection-lock,
And inside your aspiration-heart
Is the key.

23079

A spiritual Master
Has a life of beauty
And a heart of fragrance
To transform
Your earth-bound life
Into a Heaven-free life.

23080

“Humanity’s
God-Gratitude-Heart-Tears and Smiles”
Is the only book that God has written
So far.

23081

The human in me
Has only one request
For God:
“My Lord, do tell me how good I am.”

23082

Mine is the self-giving heart
That thrills
At the sacred and secret whispers
Of my Lord Supreme.

23083

Only a God-surrender-heart
Enjoys the safest haven
On earth.

23084

My restless mind
Needs a slower speed,
And my selfless heart
Needs a faster speed
To arrive at God’s Heart-Home.

23085

True,
I cannot consciously converse with God,
But my heart’s silence-tears
At every moment speak with God.

23086

Although the human in me
Is a poor listener,
My Lord Supreme never stops
Speaking and advising.

23087

My Lord Supreme
Blessingfully offered me many special things.
But to my sorrow, the human in me
Politely declined everything,
And the animal in me
Vehemently rejected everything.

23088

I am so fortunate
That God the Compassion,
Not God the Justice,
Checks my aspiration-pulse
Every morning and every evening.

23089

Because my Lord Supreme
Is pleased with me,
My mind is rich in hope
And my heart is rich in promise.

23090

My Lord Supreme,
Do tell me what I am supposed to do
When I feel unloved.
“My child, you and I are in the same boat.
Do not worry.
Our boat will one day definitely reach
The destination: Love infinite.”

23091

O my time-squandering mind,
Can you not see that I dislike you
Immensely?
Because of you I have lost
Many God-fulfilling opportunities.

23092

When I live in my heart-garden,
I see everywhere
God-Beauty’s Eye
And God-Prosperity’s Heart.

23093

God can and shall
Do everything for you
If you just allow Him
To play on your heart-strings.

23094

I have come to realise
That my sleepless God-obedience
Is my endless God-Delight.

23095

God allows only
A gratitude-flooded heart
To claim Him unreservedly.

23096

Each beautiful flower
Is indeed a lovely letter
From God Himself
To mankind.

23097

O my Lord Supreme,
Your fleeting Smiles
Immediately inspire
My very life-breath.

23098

O my stupidity-mind,
You and nobody else
Will choose negative, hostile forces
To fulfil you.

23099

I feel I am perfect and satisfied
Only when I awaken
My sleeping God-hunger.

23100

My Lord,
I pray to You today
For a series of boons:
Do not fulfil my physical desires.
Do not fulfil my vital desires.
Do not fulfil my mental desires.
Do not fulfil my psychic desires,
For even my heart
Countless times desires wrong things.
Only fulfil the longings of my soul,
Which will never ask You
For what is uninspiring,
Unaspiring, unillumining
Or unfulfilling.
