Twenty-Seven Thousand Aspiration-Plants, part 47
4601
My Lord Supreme,Do give my heart the capacity
To walk along
The path of silence-obedience
Always.
4602
My dedication-lifeAlways wants my aspiration-heart
To have sovereign rights over it.
4603
How can your life-treeBe happy
When your mind’s desire-wind
Is blowing very hard?
4604
When the desire-wind blows,Be extremely careful,
For your aspiration-plant
May helplessly die.
4605
What really countsIn God’s Eye
Is your cheerful and soulful
Willingness
And not your previous
Amazement-achievements.
4606
He who gives his heart of loveAnd his life of satisfaction
To mankind
Can easily have free access
To God the Infinite.
4607
Each obscure and impure thoughtHas the capacity to make us feel
That our Compassion-Lord
Wants to remain a perfect stranger.
4608
My soul tells my heartThat it will cheerfully and proudly
Carry all its messages
To the Lord Supreme.
4609
O my stupid mind,From now on
I shall never allow you
To be my decision-maker!
4610
Say “Yes”To God’s Compassion-Heart
So that you can become one
With God’s Perfection-Soul.
4611
Why do you cherishYour desire-life-slave
When you can cherish
Aspiration-mountain-king?
4612
If you can possess yourselfAnd nobody else,
Then God’s Vision-Satisfaction-Skies
Shall blossom inside you.
4613
A good seeker never livesOn a borrowed inspiration-mind,
A borrowed aspiration-heart
Or a borrowed dedication-life.
4614
My Lord Supreme,In the morning
Do give me the capacity
To renounce everything.
In the evening
Do give me the capacity
To announce Your Victory
In and through my life.
4615
What is easy?To have soulful God-cries.
What is most difficult?
To feel that God loves you
No matter what you say and do.
4616
The human mindTeaches confusion.
The divine heart
Teaches illumination.
The Supreme Lord
Teaches Oneness-Satisfaction.
4617
O gratitude,Do not remain my God-hunger’s
Rarest food.
4618
If you allow the vital-thiefTo steal your heart’s God-treasures,
Then nobody will be there
To befriend you and your stupidity.
4619
You must not delay!You must achieve
As soon as possible,
Before your life fades away.
4620
One thing I have learnt:If I want to love God
Not only soulfully
But also unconditionally,
I surprisingly can.
4621
If you can develop the capacityTo inspect your insecurity,
Security will come and befriend you.
4622
Each child of hopeIs the glorious embodiment
Of God’s Vision-Light.
4623
To trust humanityIs to feel
Divinity’s closest oneness.
4624
The body has to be always awareThat the soul
Is its most adorable guest.
4625
My closing remarksTo this world:
I expected,
Therefore
I am disappointed.
4626
This applies to you, too!You must every day
Meditate on God
Soulfully plus unconditionally.
4627
God does not want to be enthronedAbove my heart.
He desires to be enshrined
Inside my heart-temple.
4628
ImaginationHas inspired him.
Aspiration
Has liberated him.
Realisation
Has immortalised him.
4629
Because you have put your mindOn a strict diet,
Peace is fast approaching.
4630
His giant egoCan easily hide
His progress-dwarf.
4631
It is beneath the dignityOf a loving heart
To wear any disguise.
4632
Because your heart suffersFrom aspiration-deficiency,
Doubt will paralyse your mind.
4633
Come and smile with me,And then let us go
And attend the funeral
Of all our sorrows
Inside our heart-church.
4634
His adamantine adherenceTo truth
Has not only saved him
Time and again
But has also saved those
Who have implicit faith
In him.
4635
Although mineIs a most spacious life-palace,
I have no room
For ignorance-prince.
4636
A silence-torch lights my wayThe moment I long
To go beyond the domain
Of the mind.
4637
Since you have descendedSo successfully
The stairs of hell,
Can you not try to ascend
Cheerfully and bravely
The stairs of Heaven?
4638
You may not know it,But it is absolutely true
That God is extremely proud
Of your secret and sacred
Heart-tears.
4639
He may not be a great soldier,But he does always aspire
To be in the headquarters
Of the aspiration-army.
4640
I am so proudThat God Himself has blessed you
With a self-control trophy.
4641
Do at least one thing goodIn this lifetime
Instead of only becoming
An encyclopaedia of good intentions.
4642
When I mountOn the wings of my prayers,
God descends
On His love-winged Bird.
4643
Now that I do not pray and meditateRegularly,
I am forced to see a short circuit
In my heart’s oneness-line
With God.
4644
I am not going to surpriseThe world
With my life’s superlative glories,
But with my Lord’s
Superlative Compassion-Stories.
4645
God feels sadThat there is always
A great shortage
Of salvation-soldiers
In His Compassion-Army.
4646
If you enjoyYour limitation-poverty,
How is it that you mind
When the world scoffs at you?
4647
Just becauseGod is His Compassion-Heart,
He does not mind
If His Compassion is misused
Every day by the masses
For millennia.
4648
Who knocks at my door?Neither my sleeping heart
Nor my suspecting mind
Wants to respond.
4649
I shall never allowMy dedication-life
To be encased in inactivity.
4650
Smite your self-doubtSoundly
If you want God to plant
Faith-plants
Inside your heart
Cheerfully.
4651
God’s Compassion-SmileCan easily transform
Your insecurity-heart
Into His own Security-Fort
In the wink of an eye.
4652
If you want your aspiration-lifeTo make you happy,
Then immediately spurn
The hostile attacks
Of your depression-arrows.
4653
Offer your aspiration-budsTo all.
God will grant you
His Satisfaction-Blossoms.
4654
His heart’s adamantine willWants to prove to him
That his mind’s ego
Is not the centre of the universe.
4655
Your mind is already so stupid.Do not add more stupidity to it
By helping it to form
The habit of unhappiness!
4656
Make all your rainbow-promisesInside the sanctuary
Of your heart’s silence
And nowhere else.
4657
If you are sincere,Omnipotence will guard you.
If you are pure,
Omniscience will guide you.
4658
I knowIf I become pure,
Absolutely pure,
My Lord Supreme
Will turn me into
His own melody-producing angel.
4659
My determination,Paired with God’s Compassion,
Can easily smash the pride
Of impossibility.
4660
Your mind’s stupid neutrality-prideHas destroyed
Your heart’s spontaneous joy.
4661
A man-written message:God loves man
Only if he loves God.
A God-written message:
Man is loved by God
Unconditionally.
4662
My heart feelsThat God’s personal Name
Is Forgiveness-Sun.
My mind thinks
That God’s impersonal Name
Is Justice-Star.
4663
If you lose your best friend,Aspiration-bird,
Rest assured that your worst enemy,
Frustration-tiger,
Will devour you.
4664
When dark thoughts appear,God does not disappear.
He only watches and waits
To see if you are going to ask
The dark thoughts to disappear.
4665
Frustration-plants growMost rapidly
In the desire-forest.
4666
Each day is a golden opportunityFor those who believe
In the satisfaction-capacity
Of God the creation.
4667
A desiring manIs not a false man,
But each desire
In the spiritual life
Is nothing but
An unwanted unreality.
4668
The insecurity-chaosOf each human being
Is astonishingly confusing.
4669
His is a sad experience:From his old devotion
He came to learn
That God was the only One
Who could perfect his life.
From his new devotion
He thinks and feels
That he has to do everything
All by himself.
4670
Truth can inspire you,But it is God’s Compassion-Light
That can and will liberate you.
4671
Peace and satisfactionOn earth
Are two most precious
Hope-gifts.
4672
Who called me?God?
Then my heart and I are ready.
Who called me?
Man?
Then my doubting mind
And my suspecting vital
Are both ready.
4673
Each nightGod-dreams enlighten my sleep
And fulfil my heart’s hunger-cry.
4674
You must never suspectYour sincerity,
For sincerity is the beginning
Of God-unfoldment in your life.
4675
My heart is my Lord’sCompassion-Light-Victory.
My soul is my Lord’s
Satisfaction-Delight-Victory.
4676
You are a lover of doubting.Therefore
You are found
In a speeding train of despair.
4677
Give up all world-claimsIf you want God to enchain you
With His Heart’s golden Chain.
4678
Do not fight with anybody.But if you have to fight,
Then fight with God’s
Forgiveness-Light,
For then you have
Nothing to lose.
4679
If you do not wantTo be aware
Of doubt’s poison-presence
Inside your mind,
Who is going to take the trouble
Of making you aware?
4680
My Lord,How long am I going to keep
My heart’s door
Stupidly open to ignorance-prince?
4681
Every day I try and tryIn vain
To swim in God’s
Satisfaction-Pool.
4682
O my mind,In spite of your surly behaviour,
I see God-satisfaction-possibility
Inside of you.
4683
Yesterday’s worldCried and cried.
Today’s world
Is smiling and smiling.
Tomorrow’s world
Will wonder and wonder.
4684
His is the heartThat owns the beauty
Of sunlit silence.
4685
His heart criesNot for him,
But for his Lord’s
Love-Manifestation.
4686
God laughs and laughsWhen He sees His seeker-child
Shoplifting
From His Compassion-Department Store.
4687
Man and his stupidityWill eventually be found
In the chasm of futility.
4688
YesterdayI breathed to hope.
Today
God is hoping to breathe
In me, through me.
4689
One thing I will neverWant to have,
And that is the misery
Of a mistrust-miser.
4690
Do you thinkI should be willing
To be inside the long train
Of your excuses?
4691
If you do the right thing,Even if you become the target
Of wild criticism,
Your inner happiness
Will eventually prove to you
That God has always
Been pleased with you.
4692
If he makesThe official announcement
Of his life’s surrender,
Then his actual surrender
May remain a far cry.
4693
To please the Supreme,The human lips must express
Only what the divine heart
Soulfully desires.
4694
If you do not appreciateYour heart’s satisfaction-sun,
This world
Is not going to help you,
And the higher world
Will never support you.
4695
Because I allowed my mindTo guide my life,
Alas,
I am now nearing
A destruction-destination.
4696
Do you not feed your mindWith your heart’s compassion-concern
To illumine your mind’s teeming doubts?
4697
Your unguarded thought-worldHas completely shattered
Your heart’s prosperity-peace.
4698
Your self-deceptionHas ruthlessly taken away from you
The power of your self-command.
4699
When I swim in the silence-sea,I see the blossoming
Of my heart’s illumination-sun.
4700
When your obedience-fluteAnd God’s Satisfaction-Flute
Play together,
Earth and Heaven dance
Their ecstasy’s dance.
