Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 248

Return to the table of contents

24701

The purity of the mind
And the humility of the heart
Are of paramount importance
In expediting our spiritual progress.

24702

It is simply useless
To try to hide anything
From God’s Compassion-Eye.

24703

We can have divine Guidance
From our Lord Supreme
Even on very short notice.

24704

A self-giving man
Is always supported
By God the Silence-Helper.

24705

God has kept the doubt-room
And the faith-room
Distinctly separate.
It is up to us which room
We want to live in.

24706

Only the smile of the soul
Can silence
The meaningless talk of the mind.

24707

God will bless you
With His own
Compassion-Satisfaction-List
Only when He sees
Your desire-list is blank.

24708

O seeker, do not indulge
In any kind of sentiment
If you really want to be successful
In your spiritual life.

24709

My Lord, do grant me
The fastest speed and strongest will
To thwart the pride of ignorance-night.

24710

No matter how great something is,
Just avoid it
If it stands in your way
To God-aspiration and God-realisation.

24711

I am so grateful to my Lord Supreme,
For He has given me the capacity
To place my life every day
On the shrine of peace.

24712

To survive here on earth,
Every day I raise my hopes
Heavenward.

24713

How can this world
Make any progress
If it wallows constantly
In ingratitude-mire?

24714

I make it my bounden duty
To clear the mist of my mind
Every morning.

24715

The beauty of our heart
And the fragrance of our soul
Are God’s unmistakable Footprints.

24716

My Lord,
May love be my heart
And surrender be my heartbeat
To fulfil You in Your own Way.

24717

My Lord,
I made my unconditional surrender
To Your Will.
Therefore, I am fully prepared
To make my life
An unconditional tolerance
For humanity.

24718

If there is no detachment,
Then we will never be able
To enjoy the nectar
Of tranquillity-sea.

24719

If you are a Heaven-train-passenger,
Then you must give up
Your earth-bound desire-life.

24720

My heart, be not sad
That the world misunderstands
And speaks ill of you.
Even poor God has innumerable
Ill-speakers!

24721

Alas, my doubting mind
Has always the capacity
To blight my self-offering heart.

24722

You must knock down your mind-wall
If you want to live inside the beauty
Of your silence-heart.

24723

Alas, his life is in between
His tired mind
And uninspired heart.

24724

God dearly loves
The heart-listener,
And not the mind-talker.

24725

A self-giving heart
Will definitely receive the crown
Of God’s Satisfaction-Delight.

24726

Surrender is the only ticket
Needed
For the Heaven-plane-passengers.

24727

Punctuality
In our prayer-life
And in our meditation-heart
Is of supreme importance.

24728

An adamantine will-power
Only
Can be the real extinguisher
Of brooding darkness.

24729

Illumine your doubt-mind
If you want to protect
Your heart-plant-life.

24730

Discard your mind’s negativity
If you want to visit
Your heart-temple.

24731

To be in the Presence of God,
No love is necessary,
No devotion is necessary.
Only surrender is necessary,
Absolutely necessary.

24732

Renounce expectation.
Then you will not suffer
From the nightmare of despair.

24733

No soulful meditation
Can ever be
A hurried task.

24734

There is not an inkling of truth
In it
When the mind says
That it pleases God
In God’s own Way.

24735

Do you even realise
How far you have gone away
From God the Compassion
Because of your short absence
From God’s Heart-Garden?

24736

Never be unwilling to chase
Your mind’s doubt-thief
If you want to swim
In the sea of peace.

24737

If your spiritual life
Has a firm foundation,
Then your goal
Is absolutely certain.

24738

Alas, I do not know where I am!
My heart is badly damaged
And my mind is completely confused.
I do not know why and how,
Alas!

24739

Of all the God-listeners,
The soul
Is by far the best.

24740

There is a yawning gulf
Between the soul and the heart
In accepting
God’s ever-blossoming Light.

24741

To solve all your problems,
You definitely need
A complete change
Of your heart.

24742

Brush aside
All your mind’s hesitations
In order for God to welcome you
With His blessingful Smile.

24743

If you do not come down
On your own
From your self-importance-pedestal,
Then your doom will fast approach you.
Everything that you have and you are
Will crumble to dust.

24744

Alas, my mind
Is entirely ensnared
By man-belittling thoughts.

24745

Because of his unreserved
Compassion-heart,
He is now being cradled
In God’s own Arms.

24746

The heart’s purity
Has its own clarity-vision
To see and feel God everywhere.

24747

When our prayer-life and service-life
Are interdependent,
We make absolutely the fastest progress.

24748

My Lord,
Do give me the readiness, willingness
And eagerness
To rekindle my heart’s aspiration-flames.

24749

Each soulful prayer
Has the capacity
To carry us far beyond
The invisible summits of imagination.

24750

You will definitely arrive at your Goal
At God’s choice Hour
Because you are undaunted
By failure-mountains.

24751

O my restless and God-delaying vital,
Do you not realise
That I have reached the point
Of utter exasperation?

24752

Every morning my aspiration-heart
Elects God’s Compassion-Eye
To guide my life.

24753

Because of my unconditional
Surrender-life,
God does not want anybody else
To be my spokesman.
He Himself wants to be always
My Spokesman.

24754

If we do not ourselves
Put our surrender-life to the test,
Then we really do not know
How much progress we have made.

24755

God asks me to be happy,
Extremely happy,
Even if I do not see
Even an iota of improvement
In my spiritual life.

24756

God the Justice
Does not need anything from us.
God the Compassion
Needs everything from us
To glorify us.

24757

Even a stone can melt
At God’s choice Hour,
But not the ever-brooding
Doubt-mind.

24758

If your life is armed with patience,
Then you can have a heart
As pure as the snow
Of the Himalayan peaks.

24759

If you cannot live without expectation,
Then it will not be possible
For you to climb
To your own glorious heights.

24760

Have nothing but flaming aspiration
If you really want to proceed
Only forward.

24761

If you know how to excel
In selfless love,
Then you are bound to expand
In God-service.

24762

If you allow yourself to be caught
In the mind’s negativity-current,
Then God is not going to examine
Your God-thirst and God-hunger.

24763

Like my heart,
May my mind weigh
My every word
Before I utter it.

24764

God has given me
An inexhaustible capacity
To love Him.
But, alas, I do not know
Why and how
I fail to use my capacity.

24765

Hardly a day goes by
When I do not see the victory
Of my mind over my heart.

24766

When you have zero tolerance
For self-doubt,
Then God becomes
Your all-fulfilling faith.

24767

Your gratitude-heart-dreams
Are larger
Than the universe itself.

24768

I have come to realise
That each victory of my heart
Is, indeed, a victory for all humanity.

24769

Indeed, it is a most difficult task
To stop our ignorance-shadow
From following us.

24770

O seeker,
If you do not make
Your surrender-life complete
Here on earth,
Then definitely you will miss
Your flight to the highest Heaven.

24771

When happiness-seeds blossom
In our hearts,
We can easily expedite
Our Godward journey.

24772

Every morning, without fail,
My heart sharpens
My life’s surrender-saw.

24773

God has come to a difficult choice:
Will He allow me
To go in my own way,
Or will He be extremely strict with me?

24774

The best way to pave
Our heart-road
Is with inspiration-beauty
And aspiration-fragrance.

24775

Our intense devotion
Keeps our heart-journey
Clear and beautiful.

24776

A soulful meditation
Is bound to activate
Our heart’s universal peace.

24777

It is not an impossible task,
But definitely a most difficult task,
To compel the mind
To swim in the sea of tranquillity.

24778

Each life-tree
Is beautiful.
Each service-branch
Is powerful.

24779

An eagerness-heart
And God’s proudest Smile
Are always found together.

24780

God is extremely proud
Of the seekers
Whose soul-songs always resonate
With God-Delight.

24781

The human mind
Always loves
Its doubt-suspicion-excursions.

24782

No matter how short
Our God-reliance-steps are,
God is eager to see us
Walking towards His all-loving Arms.

24783

My aspiring heart
Lives
Where God-Love
Is.

24784

The messenger of peace
Brings down each moment
Special blessings for humanity.

24785

If you are a genuine God-server,
Then the goddess of peace
Will definitely beckon you.

24786

O my aspiration-heart,
Do not delay!
It is high time for you to summon
Your soul’s God-Victory-trumpet.

24787

I brought my Lord
A prayerful smile.
My Lord gave me
His beautiful universe.

24788

O God-disobedient seeker,
Be careful!
Eventually yours will be the life
Of elephant-sized regrets.

24789

At long last
I find my own aspiration-heart
In the Beauty-Eye
Of my Beloved Supreme.

24790

When I dive deep within,
I clearly see
That there is never a moment
When my Lord Supreme
Does not love me
And does not need me.

24791

My heart’s eagerness runs
When my mind’s hesitation
Does not even dare to crawl.

24792

Alas, how can I make any progress
In my spiritual life
When I enjoy dearly
My mind’s contradictions
And inconsistencies?

24793

God tells me
That my sleepless
And breathless gratitude
Is wider than the widest
Of all horizons.

24794

Every moment is so sacred.
We must value it
In order to grow and glow
In our own purity-heart-garden.

24795

Not love, not devotion, not surrender,
But our sleepless and breathless oneness
With God’s Will
Is the last word in spirituality.

24796

God always answers our prayers,
But at times the answer can be
A blessingful, meaningful
And fruitful “No!”

24797

Alas, I have wasted
So much of my life-energy
On my division-mind, suspicion-mind
And self-gratification-mind!

24798

If we can claim the Sunrise-Saviour
To be our own, very own,
Then He will take us
To His own Sunrise-Summit.

24799

My Lord,
I need Your Feet
To forgive me.

My Lord,
I need Your Eye
To protect me.

My Lord,
I need Your Hand
To perfect me.

24800

One gratitude-heart-smile
Is more than enough
To thrill my Lord Supreme
To the core.
