Part I — Poems 1 to 100

EB 1-100. Poems 1 to 100 were written on Pan Am Flight 100 from New York to London on June 21, 1974, in London and in Cambridge, England.

1. Why I love you

I love you
Because
Yours is the heart
Of an ice-melting flame.

I love you
Because
Yours is the life
Of a love-radiating sun.

I love you
Because
Yours is the soul
Of a compassion-flowing moon.

2. My Lord's favour

My Lord's favour
Has caused me tremendous worries.
I am afraid
At any moment I may lose His favour.

My Lord's disfavour
Has given me tremendous determination.
I am certain
I shall someday win His favour.

3. My success and my failure

My success has built
My ego-palace.

My failure has built
My humility-nest.

O my ego-palace,
You are my life's transcendental disgrace.

O my humility-nest,
You are my divinity's eternal rest.

4. Yesterday, today, tomorrow

Yesterday
He was open-eyed;
Therefore
God and His transcendental Vision blessed him.

Today
He is open-minded;
Therefore
God and His infinite Peace bless him.

Tomorrow
He will be open-hearted;
Therefore
God and His immortal Bliss shall bless him.

5. Four indefinable things

Four are the things
I shall never be able to define:
Heaven's endless Dream,
Earth's sleepless aspiration,
God's universal Compassion,
Man's transcendental ingratitude.

6. His life has failed

Do you know why his life has ended?
His life has ended
Because
His eyes have lost their God-smile.

Do you know why his life has failed?
His life has failed
Because
His proud arms did not surrender
To God's Knowledge-sun.

7. No one

You are asking me
To open my eyes.
Tell me, who is there to appreciate
The God-beauty of my eyes?
No one, absolutely no one.

You are asking me
To use my arms.
Tell me, who is there to appreciate
The God-duty of my arms?
No one, eternally no one.

8. The master

You be the master of your every hour.
God will definitely be the master
Of your every moment on your behalf,
Cheerfully, devotedly
And
Unconditionally.

You be the master of your soulful smile.
God will definitely be the master
Of your heart's excruciating pangs on your behalf,
Smilingly, sleeplessly
And
Unconditionally.

9. Your agelong hunger

Lord, today You are
My most distinguished guest.
Alas, how can I offer You my food,
My ignorance-night?
"Son, I am terribly hungry;
Just give Me what you have.
My cosmic hunger cares not for taste;
It cares only for food.
Soon I shall invite you to be My guest.
I shall give you My food, Nectar-flood.
Like Me, you too must not care for taste,
But for the satisfaction
Of your agelong hunger."

10. Man the saviour supreme

Be pure like the golden dawn.
You can and shall easily be
Man the seeker supreme.

Be sure like the dauntless noon.
You can and shall unmistakably be
Man the lover supreme.

Be true like the dutiful earth
And
The dutiful sun.
You can and shall eventually be
Man the saviour supreme.

11. O life

O animal life,
Be considerate and not passionate.

O human life,
Be living and not dying.

O divine life,
Be compassionate and not hesitant.

12. From ancient times

From ancient times unto this day
He has not seen a smile
That resembles his God-smile.

From ancient times unto this day
He has not felt a heart
That resembles his universal heart.

13. They do not have to insist

God does not have to insist;
He just smiles and smiles.

Man does not have to insist;
He just cries and cries.

Life does not have to insist;
It just surrenders and surrenders.

Love does not have to insist;
It just becomes and becomes.

14. My soul's festival

My heart was at my soul's festival.
My mind's sense of inferiority
Did not allow my mind to appear.
My vital's sense of superiority
Did not allow my vital to appear.
My body's sense of total unworthiness
Did not allow my body to appear.

15. Hours

The holy hour is silence-nun.
The unholy hour is sound-fun.
The human hour is God-expectation.
The divine hour is man-salvation,
Earth-perfection
And
God-satisfaction.

16. To see her

To see her in the morning
Is to be breathless with aspiration.

To see her at noon
Is to be continuous in adoration.

To see her in the evening
Is to be ceaseless in dedication.

17. My life's helpers

An ant's determination
Can save my life.

A drop's surrender
Can illumine my life.

A grain's aspiration
Can immortalise my life.

18. When God is happy

God is happy only twice:
Once when
Heaven's Vision
And
Earth's determination
Need each other;
Once when
I row my dream-boat
And
God shows me His Reality-shore.

19. Self-proclamations

My soul says:
"I am that birthless and deathless thing."

My heart says:
"I am that eternally aspiring thing."

My mind says:
"I am that forever dissatisfied thing."

My vital says:
"I am that endlessly desiring thing."

My body says:
"I am that sleeping, snoring and dreaming thing."

20. They wait

My heart waits
For the pure choice.

My soul waits
For the sure voice.

My Lord waits
For my unconditional surrender.

My life waits
For my transcendental acceptance.

21. Totally even

Lord, You and I
Are together once more;
Let us not fail this time.
Let me give You unconditionally
The cries and sighs
Of my bleeding heart;
You just give me
Your Satisfaction-smile.
Lord, this is the only way left
For us to be totally even.

22. Do not forsake me

Infinity, do not forsake me;
I love your infinite Joy.

Eternity, do not forsake me;
I love your eternal Silence.

Immortality, do not forsake me;
I love your immortal Life.

God, do not forsake me;
I love your transcendental Smile.
I really do.

23. My God is lonely

My soul is lonely.
Today, without fail,
I am going to console my soul
With my assurance-height.

My God is lonely.
Today, without fail,
I am going to console my God
With my acceptance-light.

24. My ignorance

My ignorance-heart
Will be washed in life.

My ignorance-feet
Will be washed in death.

My ignorance-dream
Will be washed in Reality:
Oneness-reality,
Perfection-reality.

25. One place to live

You want to know
Where your confusion is.
I tell you
It has only one place to live:
It is in your mental light.

You want to know
Where your aspiration is.
I tell you
It has only one place to live:
It is in your psychic light.

You want to know
Where your realisation is.
I tell you
It has only one place to live:
It is in your surrender-light.

26. Reality

My mind-thought
Has no reality.

My life-actions
Have some reality.

My perfection-surrender
Is the final Reality.

27. I love death

I love death
Because
I am renewed by death.

I love life
Because
I am inspired by life.

I love love
Because
I am energised by love.

I love God
Because
I am examined,
Perfected
And
Fulfilled by God.

28. Let us be alone

You be alone.
You are past correction.

Let him be alone.
He is above God-realisation.

Let me be alone.
My life needs correction,
My heart needs God-realisation.

29. You are the goal of everything

Your life tells me
You are the end of everything,
The final man.
I feel it is unmistakably true.

Your soul tells me
You are the goal of everything,
The universal God.
I know it is supremely true.

30. Voices

The voice of my soul
Is always energising.

The voice of my heart
Is always encouraging.

The voice of my mind
Is always discouraging.

The voice of my vital
Is always challenging.

The voice of my body
Is always trembling.

31. Tired and sick

My tears are tired
Of God's delay.

My frustrations are sick
Of earth's display.

I am tired and sick
Of my life's ignorance-clay.

32. Only one smile

Only one sigh of mine
Has the capacity
To stretch God's Compassion-net.

Only one smile of God's
Has the Infinity
To perfect and immortalise my earth-role.

33. Before I forget

Let me play with God
Before I forget.

Let me cry with the poor earth
Before I forget.

Let me fly with my flying soul
Before I forget.

Let me become
Heaven-light
And
Earth-pride
Before I forget.

34. My true disgrace

O my unguarded mouth,
You are my true disgrace.

O my unopened heart,
You are my real disgrace.

O my unfulfilled soul,
Don't hide your face.
I shall soon manifest you
With my surrender-embrace.

35. My silence

Soul, my soul,
You are my sunlit silence.

Heart, my heart,
You are my half-lit silence.

Mind, my mind,
You are my unlit silence.

Life, my life,
You are my totally unconscious silence.

36. The right person

Heaven-born freedom
I know not
Whom to share with.
Ah, I know the right person.
I shall share with my brother, man.

Earth-born bondage
I know not
Whom to share with.
Ah, I know the right person.
I shall share with my Father, God.

37. I have lost it

The smile that wins, I had;
But alas, I have lost it.
Actually, my soul has lost it.

The cry that wins, I had;
But alas, I have lost it.
Actually, my heart has lost it.

The will that wins, I had;
But alas, I have lost it.
Actually, my vital has lost it.
Alas, alas!

38. Not too late

Not too late to see a new world.
Start trying!

Not too late to create a new world.
Start crying!

Not too late to please the Absolute Supreme.
Start smiling!

39. Our earth-journey

We start our earth-journey
With a never-ending cry.
This cry is our Divinity's soul.

We end our earth-journey
With an ever-glowing smile.
This smile is our Reality's goal.

40. Loving

Loving
Is seeing;
Therefore
I try to love.

Loving
Is knowing;
Therefore
I try to love.

Loving
Is becoming;
Therefore
I try to love.

Whom do I love?
My old good Friend,
My Eternity's Supreme.

41. Two things to do

My love for God has two things to do:

It has to see God,
The eternal Beggar,
Crying for me.

It has to see God,
The eternal Emperor,
Smiling at me.

The first thing is almost being done.
It seems the second thing
Will take a very long time.

42. Those who believe

Those who believe, embrace.
What do they believe?
They believe that they are
Of God.

Those who embrace, believe.
What do they embrace?
They embrace
God's immanence,
God's permanence
And
God's transcendence.

43. What was and what is

What was, still is:
My heart's inner cry
For Infinity's Truth.

What is, shall remain so:
My surrender-life
To Eternity's Love.

He is really great.

I am really great.

46. A mounting possibility

A mounting possibility:
Your God-realisation.

A mounting possibility:
Your life-transformation.

A mounting possibility:
Your oneness-manifestation.

A mounting possibility:
Your God-satisfaction.

Therefore
Lose not hope, try.

47. Appeals to God

The mind's appeal to God:
Father, do not keep the heart
Always above me.
I am also Your child.

The heart's appeal to God:
Father, do keep the soul
Always above me.
I love its satisfaction-light,
I adore its realisation-height,
I treasure its vision-might.

One flame of hers
Brought down Heaven.

Who can save me
From the problem-game of birth?
Nobody, save and except
The God-lover in my heart.

Who can save me
From the problem-game of death?
Nobody, save and except
The God-seeker in my life.

52. United souls, united lives

Two united souls:
One soul offered
The love of perfection;
The other soul offered
The perfection of love.

Two united lives:
One life discovered
God's little flame of the finite life;
The other life discovered
God's Eternity-sun in Infinity's Smile.

53. Easier for him

Easier for him
To forget his own name
Than to surrender
The measureless pride of his mind.

Easier for him
To remember his own God-height
Than to conquer
The feeble insecurity of his heart.

Where is your perfection-home
If not inside
Your God-smile?

Where is your satisfaction-heart
If not inside
Your selfless duty?

Ecstasy's sky,
How to climb?
Give up your desire-life.

Perfection-sun,
How to achieve?
Illumine the heart-cave
Of your aspiration-life.
Lo, you have achieved it!

Unbearable!
Far beyond my life-capacity.

Unimaginable!
Far surpassing my earth-reality.

My soul's will:
"Fight for earth-freedom."

My body's will:
"Long for Heaven-descent."

My God's Will:
"Daughter, I am tired.
Replace Me!"

58. Height, depth, length

The height of silence
My soul and I knew.

The depth of sound
My life and I know.

The length of ignorance-sleep
My body and I do not know.

59. My life's knowledge

My desire-life
Knows not what vastness is.

My aspiration-life

To chant God's name ceaselessly.

To make me another God,
A real God.

The man of one's own necessity.

Because
Your shadow inspires me to follow you
And reach my destined Goal.

Is to surpass you in every possible way,
O sweet forgiveness
Of my Eternity's ignorance.

I am not ready
And I shall never be ready
For God.

My Heaven-free time tells me
God is seeing Himself through me,
God is manifesting Himself through me,
God is transcending Himself through me,
For me, for me alone.

Don't love the past.
Are you a fool?
Don't you see that the past
Has disappointed you
And
Deserted you?

Is ignorant of you
And
Indifferent to you?

Are you a fool?
Don't you see that the present
Is not pleasing you
And
Not fulfilling you?

In the land of aspiration?
Who else, if not I
And
My significant necessity.

Alas, I have sadly failed."

A useless repetition.

A hopeless repetition.

Your jealousy-life,
A soulless repetition.

Your desire-life,
A Godless repetition.

You have not listened to me;
No more smiles from my lips.

No more smiles from my heart.

You have not listened to God;
No more smiles from my life.

81. When I prayed to live

When I prayed to live,
My desire-comrade embraced me,
My body.

When I lived to pray,

My heart.

My realisation-soul embraced me,
My soul.

From silence to sound.

A yawning gulf
From faith to doubt.

The song of an obscure man:
"God is not for me."

The song of an impure man:

The song of a pure man:
"God is all Compassion."

The song of a sure man:
"I have discovered God
In the flowering of my life divine."

85. Two questions

I have two questions.
My first question:
Why am I not God?
God, either You answer
Or
Send me someone
To answer this unanswerable question.
My second question:
Did You know, God,
That I would prove to be Your stupendous failure
Before You dreamt of creating me?
God, either You answer
Or
Send me someone
To answer this answerable question.

86. Tears

There was a time
When my tears filled my years;
Therefore
I clearly saw God's Heart
Of infinite Beauty.
But now
My tears have empty years;
Therefore
I carry my heavy life
Of inescapable duty.

87. Ancient and modern splendours

Three are the splendours
Of the ancient world:
Faith-moon,
Concern-sky,
Sacrifice-sun.

Three are the splendours
Of the modern world:
Indifference-house,
Doubt-walls,
Suspicion-gate.

88. My depths

I like my mind-depth
Because
I have already fathomed it.

I love my heart-depth
Because
It is yet to be fully fathomed by me.

Because
It defies my capacity
And
Eternally remains unfathomable.

No, not even Satan.

90. I have more to give

I have more light,
Just wait and see.
I have more light to give,
Just empty your mind and receive.

I have more love,
Just dive within.
I have more love to give,
Just smile and achieve.

91. My cherished possessions

My light is my light;
No prince of gloom can take it away from me.
No, not even Satan himself.

My ignorance is my ignorance;
No prince of wisdom can take it away from me.
No, not even the cosmic gods.

My body's perpetual procrastination
No more can I brook.

My vital's perpetual betrayal
No more can I brook.

My mind's perpetual prevarication
No more can I brook.

My heart's perpetual hesitation
No more can I brook.

He is devoted;
Therefore
God's Heart of Love
And
God's Soul of Light
Are fond of him.

He is concentrated;
Therefore
God the Creator
And
God the Creation
Are exceedingly proud of him.

94. He is my all

My world
Is his celestial smile.

My heaven
Is his terrestrial attention.

My aspiration
Is his glowing compassion.

My realisation
Is his flowing affection.

95. Hope's children

Why do you wait without hope?
If you wait without hope
In a dark abyss
Your life will always grope.
Wait with hope.
Lo, hope gives birth to
Reality's seed,
Eternity's tree,
Infinity's flower,
Immortality's fruit.

96. Too many Masters

Too many Masters.
Whom to choose?
Ah, I shall choose the one
Who has yet to realise God.
He and I will keep good company!

Too many disciples.
Whom to choose?
Ah, I shall choose the one
Who is on the verge of realisation
So that I do not have to work so hard.

97. The witness

His outer violence-sound
Has destroyed his inner world.
His Spirit's Silence-height
Has revived and immortalised
His inner world.
And who was the witness?
None but God the Justice, Himself.

98. Eyes

Eyes have their own silence.
Only a Heaven-aspiring heart
Has the capacity to love them.

Eyes have their own sound.
Only an earth-enamoured vital
Has the temerity to admire them.

99. A willing server

He is a willing server:
Far will he go,
Much will he do
For both God and man.
God will crown him
With His Blessing-heights;
Man will crown him
With his gratitude-depths.

100. A victory supremely decreed

Vital, my vital,
You have reigned for a long time.
Let the sleeping body reign
At least for a day.

Mind, my mind,
How long will you allow
The wild vital to reign?
Arise, awake!
Declare your unquestionable supremacy.

Heart, my heart,
Ignorance-mind is fast asleep.
This is the time for you to conquer
The blind and wild vital with your soul-light.
Your august victory
Is supremely decreed.

103. The guide

You want to know the way
To the kingdom of falsehood.
Just give a chance to your proud mind.
Your mind will easily prove
To be a matchless guide.

To the kingdom of truth.
Just wake your soulful heart.
Your heart will immediately prove
To be a faultless,
Peerless
And
Deathless
Guide.

O my thought-life,
In my soul-sea
You shall always remain
Non-essential.

O my will-life,
In my heart-sky
You shall always remain
Essential,
Indispensable.
You are God's own Perfection-pride.

Your earth-life
Has exhausted
All your cries and sighs;
Therefore
Your Concern-Lord is ready to accept you
As His own, very own.

Your Heaven-life
Has exhausted
All your beauty and divinity;
Therefore
Your Compassion-Lord is ready
To embrace you,
Energise you,
Perfect you

How to proceed.
Alas, it never proceeds.

418. Six gifts of love

My love divine
Has given me six things:
A disciplined body,
A dynamic vital,
An awakened mind,
A liberated heart,
An all-loving soul
And
An unquestionably real God.

419. Your eye

My body-life
Is afraid of your fixed eye.

My vital-life
Is afraid of your fiery eye.

My mind-life
Is afraid of your tranquil eye.

But

My heart-life
Is not afraid of you,
Not even of your trance-eye.

420. Lessons of life

From earth-life
I have learned two things:
Strive and despair.

Watch and see.

Become and be.

When my world is in the mind
I think I love God
More than God loves me.

When my world is in the heart
I feel God loves me
More than I love Him.

When my world is in the soul
I know,
Because God has taught me,
How to love Him
Equally,
Eternally
And
Supremely.

423. Voices

If you live in the mind-cave
You hear
The voice of your vital-life.
You do not hear
The voice of your soul-life;
You cannot and will not hear
The voice of your ever-transcending Self.

424. Another chance

I am tired of this world.
The world is tired of me.
What shall we do?
Perhaps we should give each other
Another chance.

World, my world,
This time I shall happily be
One with the flow of your life.

"Seeker, my seeker,
This time I shall unconditionally surrender
To your soul-glow."

425. I give birth

I give birth to thunder-noise
When I challenge the pride
Of ignorance-night.

I give birth to silence-voice
When I sleep in the heart
Of my aspiration-light.

426. Action is freedom

Live in the vital.
There action is freedom.
Live in the soul.
There action is freedom.
But
Your vital-freedom
Leads you into destruction-night,
While
Your soul-freedom
Elevates you into God's transcendental Height.

427. Your history

Your body-history
You do not know.

Your vital history
You have forgotten.

Your mind-history
Disheartens you.

Your heart-history
Inspires you.

Your soul-history
Satisfies you.

Any more.
Look for a job elsewhere, please.

God touched Heaven's Soul
With His Beauty.

Smitten by Heaven's frown,
He is half-dead.

He is fully dead.
Who will and can survive him?
His surrender to God's Compassion,
His faith in his soul's aspiration.

443. Dream not of any other world

Dream not of any other world;

Promise.

My world is all gratitude to Him.

"God-realisation is as easy
As lying to children;

Such an easy task."

As climbing the Himalayas;
Therefore
It is beyond your capacity to perform
Such a difficult task."

467. Enjoying my company

When I had a face
Without a heart,
The animal-kingdom
Deeply enjoyed my company.

Deeply enjoys my company.

And a transformation-face,
The Divine Kingdom
Shall deeply enjoy my company.

The dance of nothingness!

In his God-realisation.

I shall reveal
God's Heart to you
Only to perfect you,
Fulfil you.

My present pleasure-path
And
My future torture-path.

No difference
Between
My present aspiration-path
And
My future realisation-path.

No difference
Between
My present surrender-path
And
My future perfection-path.

My earth-height
Together roam.
And God-satisfaction proclaims them.

661. My breathless necessity

God's Height
I have measured
Successfully and gloriously.
But
My two tiny feet
I fail to measure.
Why?
Just because I feed
Only the hunger
Of my breathless necessity.

662. Out of sheer consideration

Out of His infinite Compassion
God has transformed
My earth-tears
Into
My Heaven-smiles.

Out of sheer consideration
I shall convert
God-Dream
Into
God-Reality.

Truth, I did look you up
Inside my mind.
But you were absent.
Now, why do you blame me unnecessarily?

Light, I did look you up
Inside my heart.

665. The lover in him

The philosopher in him knows
All about Heaven-capacity
And
Earth-possibility,
But does not know
What is inside his heart-room.

The poet in him can tell you
All about God,
But he can never correctly tell you
Where God is.

The lover in him does not want to know
Who God is
And
Where God is;
It is enough for him
That God really is.

666. My celebration

Yesterday I saw
The same Compassion-God
Whom I saw before my birth-cry.

Inside the heart of my death-cry.

You want to know
How I can be so happy.

I am happy
Because my God is above ignorance.

God has given you
An aspiring life.

676. When this life dies

You are wrong
If you think
That this life immediately flies to God
When it dies.

You are wrong
If you think
That God comes down and immediately
Visits this life
When it dies.

You are right
If you feel
That this life gains an experience
Of God-Light
In the heart of God-Universality
When it dies.

677. A great Light-distributor

My mind:
A great Light-borrower.
My heart:
A great Light-user.
My soul:
A great Light-enjoyer.
My life:
A great Light-distributor.

678. Who believes?

Who believes
In his God-life?
Nobody!

Who believes
In his God-realisation?
Nobody!

Who believes
In his God-realising aspiration?
Nobody!

Indeed, this is fate.
Needless to say
God's Pride is for him,
For him alone.

679. The Himalayan ignorance-crest

If you aspire and then die,
Your life enjoys purposeful rest.

If you desire and then die,
Your life becomes a purposeless rest.

If you desire only to live
An animal life
Or
A human life,
Then you are living
On the Himalayan ignorance-crest.

680. A God-sound

No joy in a slow sound,
No joy in a quick sound,
No joy in a low sound,
No joy in a big sound;
Joy only in a God-sound.
What is a God-sound?
A God-sound is my silence-life.

681. Four inseparable friends

He lives in the room
Of brooding doubts.

She lives in the room
Of strangling jealousies.

You live in the room
Of devouring depression.

I live in the room
Of sighing lamentation.

Therefore
We are four inseparable friends.

682. It can be better

I admire
The beauty of your eyes.
But it can be better.

I admire
The purity of your heart.
But it can be better.

I admire
The God-necessity in your life.
But it can be better.

683. I feel really sorry for you

Your heart-purity is snared
By the ignorance-world.
I feel really sorry for you.

Your mind-clarity is ridiculed
By the ignorance-world.
I feel really sorry for you.

Your vital-temerity is despised
By the ignorance-world.
I feel really sorry for you.

Your body-humility is misunderstood
By the ignorance-world.
I feel really sorry for you.

684. God is all gratitude

God gave me a receptive life.
Therefore
I am all gratitude to him.

I gave God a deceptive smile.
Yet
God is all gratitude to me.
He says
At least I have given Him something.
There are countless souls on earth
Who have given Him
And will give Him
Nothing.

685. Your golden today

Don't be a liar!
Your yesterday was never golden.

Don't be a fool!
Your tomorrow can never be golden.

Be sincere, be wise!
Your today is unmistakably
And supremely golden.

686. The plunge

My body-reality
Has plunged in man's
Fruitless sound-prosperity.

My soul-reality
Has plunged in God's
Fruitful Silence-divinity.

687. My heart is enough

I have no need
For a sweet tongue.
My heart is enough.

I have no need
For a brilliant mind.
My heart is enough.

I have no need
For two strong arms.
My heart is enough.

I have no need
For two seeing eyes.
My heart is enough.

688. Weeping

Yesterday I wept
Because
I was not realised.

Today I weep
Because
I have not yet manifested God.

Tomorrow I shall weep
Because
I shall have failed to fulfil my
God-ordained tasks.

689. I am caught

I am caught by an animal.
Therefore
I am ruthlessly commanded to surrender.

I am caught by man.
Therefore
I am unconditionally forced to offer.

I am caught by God.
Therefore
I am lovingly asked to love.
Why?
Because God wants me to become another God.
Why?
Because He wants me to be
His main partner
In His cosmic Game.

690. Too proud

He was too proud to die,
He was too proud to live.
God said to him:
"Since you do not want to die,
You may as well
Work for me on earth.
Since you do not want to live,
You may as well
Sleep all day and night."

691. The saga of my prayer

The saga of my prayer:
My prayer secretly comes down
From God-Compassion
And openly enters into the field
Of God-Manifestation.
Then,
My morning prayer is for earth-aspiration,
My midday prayer is for Heaven-satisfaction
And
My evening prayer is for world-perfection.

692. No disguise

No disguise;
I love You.
My heart loves You only.

No disguise;
I need You.
My life needs You only.

No disguise;
You and You alone:
My Eternity's all,
My sweet beloved Supreme!

693. Open house

My heart keeps
Constant open house.
Truth-duty every morning comes for breakfast,
Joy-beauty every noon comes for luncheon,
Light-divinity every evening comes for dinner.
My heart keeps
Constant open house.

694. Three suns

The outer sun shines bright
At the end of my morning prayer.

My inner sun conquers my ignorance
At the end of my morning meditation.

My God-sun embraces me
At the end of my morning service.

695. Chaos grows thick

Chaos grows thick
As my body snores.

Chaos grows thicker
As my vital roars.

Chaos grows thickest
As my mind doubts.

Chaos grows thicker than the thickest
As my heart shouts.

696. In the painted world

In the painted world
Who wants to live
Indefinitely?
Not I, at least!

In the painted world
Who does not want to play
The role of a saviour?
Needless to say,
I volunteer myself to be
The first saviour.

697. Supreme command, supreme prayer

O my mind's doubt-life,
Leave me immediately.
Indeed,
This is my supreme command.

O my heart's faith-life,
O my life's surrender-light,
Guide me, guide me.
Indeed,
This is my supreme prayer.

698. Human and divine

Human life dies,
Divine life flies.
Human soul sees,
Divine soul becomes.
Human goal fails,
Divine goal succeeds,
Proceeds
And
Transcends.

699. Every perfection-moment

Every dedication-moment of mine
Adds a new lustre-soul
To God-Beauty.

Every perfection-moment of mine
Adds a new divinity-life
To God-necessity.

700. The darlings

Two are the darlings of Heaven:
Light and Delight.
Two are the darlings of earth:
Cry and Surrender.
Two are the darlings of God:
You and I.
But you must never breathe
This secret supreme to anyone.

EB 701-800. Poems 701 to 800 were written in Stockholm and Uppsala, Sweden.

701. I maintain perfect freedom

I maintain perfect freedom
In my prayer.
I pray only to my Lord Supreme.

I maintain perfect freedom
In my meditation.
I meditate only on my Liberator Supreme.

I maintain perfect freedom
In my love.
I love only my Beloved Supreme.

702. To deny their existence

Do you want to deny
The existence of death?
Then start loving the heart of light.

Do you want to deny
The existence of Satan?
Then start becoming another God.

703. A seat for death

In my soul-room
There is no seat for death.
In my heart-room
There is a seat for death.
But very often my heart
Does not allow death
To occupy its seat.
And what does my mind do?
My mind just welcomes death
And offers him any seat he desires.

704. What matters?

What matters if I stand alone
And challenge the pride of falsehood?
Nothing!

What matters if I stand alone
And drink deep earth-poison?
Nothing!

What matters if I stand alone
And wait for God's Hour?
Nothing, absolutely nothing!

705. Four divine servants

Simplicity
Washes his body.

Sincerity
Cleanses his heart.

Purity
Purifies his breath.

Duty
Immortalises his life.

How can I teach the world
When it is so ignorant?

How can I feed the world
When it is not hungry?

How can I love the world
When it treasures ignorance?

707. Paths to God

What is Life divine
If not a straight path to God?

What is Light divine
If not a sunlit path to God?

What is Love divine
If not a straight, sunlit short cut,
A supreme short cut
To God?

708. Partners

Who are you?
You are God's silent partner.

Who is he?
He is God's active partner.

Who am I?
I am God's sleeping partner.

Who is God?
A Reality-fulfilling Dreamer.

709. Three visions of Christ

In his Humility
I saw Father Joseph's little son.

In his Compassion
I saw Mother Mary's big son.

In his Perfection
I saw his Heaven-Father's Smile.

710. He loves his dreams

He loves his dreams
Because
They are thriving.

He loves his realities
Because
They are crying.

He loves his God
Because
He is always transcending.

711. Desires unfulfilled

Desires unfulfilled,
He dared to fling defiance at God.

Desires unfulfilled,
He trained himself in the denial of God.

Desires unfulfilled,
He at once became
God-indifference
And
Man-indifference.

712. Alone with the Master

When you are alone with your Master,
You are not happy.
You feel sad that nobody is there
To appreciate you,
To admire you,
To consider you exceptional.

When you are in a group with your Master,
You are not happy.
You feel sad that you have to share
Your Master's presence with others,
His smile with others.
You are one of the many,
And in no way exceptional.

713. Your inner sun

Earth has allures,
Earth has mirages.
Be careful.
Are you looking for your
Own safeguard against
The aggression of your vital,
The suspicion of your mind,
The disintegration of your heart?
Then invoke your inner sun.
Your inner sun will offer you
Its clear shining.
It will, without fail,
Immortalise you.

714. Your unflinching adherence

You want to embody me,
You want to reveal me,
You want to manifest me.
But how will you do all that?
By your unflinching adherence
To truth-silence,
To love-oneness.

715. I shall do it for you

Daughter,
You do not have to think;
I shall do the thinking for you.
You do not have to pray;
I shall do the praying for you.
You do not have to meditate;
I shall do the meditating for you.
You do not have to surrender;
I shall do the surrendering for you.
I shall do everything for you.
Just give Me a smile,
A soulful smile every day.

716. Your Heaven

Daughter,
Your Heaven is on earth.
Your Heaven is not a song-life,
Your Heaven is not a dance-life.
Your Heaven is your heart's oneness-life with Me.
Your Heaven is in your acceptance
Of God-light from Me.
Your Heaven is your real 'I'
In Me.

717. Where our danger lies

Where does your danger lie?
Your danger lies in your self-importance.

Where does his danger lie?
His danger lies in his pleasure-indulgence.

Where does my danger lie?
My danger lies in my world-rejection.

718. Whom to blame?

Why do you blame your circumstances?
Why do you blame others?
Why do you blame God?
You can blame and criticise
Only one person,
And indeed,
That person is you,
The ignorance-feeding
Dissatisfaction in you.

719. You fail to claim God

You have seen God.
Therefore
You want to see God again.

You have loved God.
Therefore
You want to love God again.

You have surrendered to God.
Therefore
You want to surrender to God again.

But you have not done one thing:
You have not claimed God.
Therefore
You fail to claim God now.
Try to claim God;
Lo, God is proclaiming you.

720. What you need

You do not need the trophy
Of your life-victory.

You do not need the appreciation
Of your life-story.

You do not need the recognition
Of your earth-bravery.

What you constantly need
Is your soul-flower.
What you breathlessly need
Is your heart-fragrance.

721. In your case, in my case

Twice my sincerity
Unreservedly speaks:
In your case,
It has taken you countless years
To learn some spiritual truths.
In my case,
Not some, but all spiritual truths
Come in a flash of glorious revelation.
You may verify this with God.
I do not mind at all.

722. Easy lessons

When we deny God,
When we betray God,
He teaches us no easy lesson.
When we love God,
When we serve God,
He teaches us all easy lessons.
How?
Just by making all lessons easy,
Including even
Our God-realisation lesson.

723. God is listening

God is listening;
Just speak quietly.
God is listening;
Just speak devotedly.
Believe me,
God is not and cannot be deaf
To your heart-longing.
His Compassion-perfection
Has caught the very first faint cry
From your oneness-heart.
God is listening;
Just speak quietly and devotedly.

724. We are happy

You are happy
Because
You share with God
All the happenings,
Little and big,
In your life.

He is happy
Because
He loves God
Untiringly and unconditionally.

I am happy
Because
I have a real need for God.

725. My supreme life

I pray and God grants:
Indeed, this is my human life.

I am of God and I am for God:
Indeed, this is my divine life.

I have and God is:
Indeed, this is my supreme life.

726. The immediate assurance

I have seen the heart-tears
Of my sorrow-flooded life.
I also know that
Light-flooded God-Life
Is awaiting me —
The immediate assurance
Of my acceptance of God-Love.

727. A truly willing guest

When my Lord Supreme
Is a truly willing guest,
He brings with Him His matchless treasure:
Compassion to me, His host.

When I am a truly willing guest,
I carry with me my long-forgotten treasure,
In fact, my only treasure:
Gratitude to God, my Host.

728. He came to God

He came to God
With his business-filled days.
Yet
God-joy claimed him unreservedly.
God said: "Ah, My son has come at last."

He came to God
With his pleasure-filled nights.
Yet
God-joy claimed him immediately.
God said: "Ah, My long-lost son
Has come.
Today I am really complete."

729. I knock, I plead, I cry

I knock
Because
My sweet Lord
Has once shown me His Heart-Door.

I plead
Because
My sweet Lord
Has once shown me His Soul-Room.

I cry
Because
My sweet Lord
Has once shown me His Silence-Throne.

730. The link

Father, I know who You are,
But I wish to hear it from You.
Do tell me who You are.
"Daughter, I am the link
Between
Your head and feet."

Father, I know who I am,
But I wish to hear it from You.
Do tell me who I am.
"Daughter, you are the link
Between
My Heaven-vision and Me,
My earth-mission and Me."

731. My bosom-friends

Varieties and separativities:
These are my bosom-friends
In my earth-existence.

Eternity and its trance,
Infinity and its smile,
Immortality and its life:
These are my bosom-friends
In my Heaven-existence.

732. My partner

God, I need Your help only twice.
Please don't forget to help me.
When I live in ignorance-night
I wish You to remain with me
As my silent partner;
And when I want to leave ignorance-night
I wish You to be my
Active,
Dynamic
And
Victory-winning partner.

733. Old story, new story

The story of my soul-sea
Is a very old story.
Therefore
My Lord Supreme does not want
To hear it anymore.

The story of my body-drop
Is absolutely a new story.
Therefore
My Lord Supreme is sleeplessly
Dying to hear it from me.

734. God has dawned

God has dawned on my chaos-life;
Therefore,
From now on His cosmos
Shall remain perfection-light,
And my cry has found
A footpath to my world-peace,
My world-bliss.

735. The Throne of God-Compassion

He sees the Throne of God-Truth.
Alas,
It is too high for him.

He sees the Throne of God-Light.
Alas,
It is too high for him.

He sees the Throne of God-Silence.
Alas,
It is too high for him.

He sees the Throne of God-Compassion.
Ah,
It is within his easy climb.
Lo, how unreservedly and perfectly he is enjoying
The blue-white
Throne of God-Compassion.

736. Bewilderment

My soul is bewildered
When it sees my earth-ignorance.

My body is bewildered
When it sees my Heaven-plenitude.

My love of God is not bewildered
Even when it sees
The Infinitude of God.

737. Immortal dawns, Immortal nights

Immortal dawns
Of supreme excellence
I enjoyed with God in Heaven,
Unreservedly and unconditionally.
Alas,
Here on earth
Ignorance-sea has forced me to enjoy
Immortal nights
Of perpetual destruction-death.
O Compassion-Lord Supreme,
Where are You,
Where am I?

738. I weep

I weep for man's sake
Because
Man never learns,
Man never surrenders.

I weep for God's sake
Because
He has no other choice
Than to confide in me
The failure of His earth-promise.

739. My earth is Heaven

My earth is Heaven
When my heart is all gratitude
To You, my beloved Lord Supreme.

My Heaven is earth
When I do not offer You,
My beloved Supreme,
My earth-transforming promise.

740. If tomorrow fails me

Yesterday failed me.
Therefore
My eye was on today.

Today is failing me.
Therefore
My eye is on tomorrow.

If tomorrow also fails me,
Like yesterday and today,
Then my eye shall be
On the Eternal Now.

Who is whispering?
Ah, my sweet Lord.
What is He whispering about?
He is offering me His Confidence-assurance.

741. Why so cruel?

Yesterday,
Why are you so cruel?
Why have you thrown yourself
Against my poor today?

Today,
Why are you so undivine?
Why are you throwing yourself
Against my poor tomorrow?

O human in me,
Why are you so stupid?
Why don't you throw yourself
Into God's eagerly awaiting
Compassion-Illumination-Sea?

742. A high wall

Man has raised a high wall
Between
Man and man.

God has built a solid bridge
Between
Man and God.

And I have established a powerful link
Between
My animal destruction
And my human frustration.

743. Three immortal friends

On earth I have not one,
But three immortal friends:
Doubt, insecurity and despair.
In Heaven I have not one,
But three immortal friends:
Dream-boat, Confidence-soul, Promise-shore.

744. The manager

He knelt.
Therefore
God blessed him.

He wept.
Therefore
God embraced him.

He prayed.
Therefore
God employed him.

He surrendered.
Therefore
God made him the manager
Of His cosmic Factory.

745. His Heaven-palace

Death struck
His earth-home
When he forgot to pray.
But God built
His Heaven-palace
With His Compassion-Ray.

746. Two rarities

You are a Master
Rarer than radium.

I am a seeker
Rarer than radium.

God is the Forgiver
Of my blind folly
And
Your wild treachery.

747. On Earth, in Heaven

On earth
I am a prisoner
Of animal wants
And
Human needs.

In Heaven
I am a darer
Of God-vision
And
God-satisfaction.

748. My Heaven-smile

My Heaven-smile
Silenced my earth-cry
When it became too loud.

My earth-dedication
Fed my Heaven-dream
When it became too hungry.

749. Our fate

You sail out to reach the shore
You are meant to reach.
He sails out to miss the shore
He is meant to miss.
I sail out to die;
I am meant to die.

750. Because you cried yesterday

Because
You cried yesterday,
Today you can smile.
Because
You are smiling today,
Tomorrow you, and nobody else,
Shall bring down
The Kingdom of Heaven
On earth
For God to enjoy His earth-rest
And man to enjoy his life-nourishing
Peace-nest.

751. Into the life of perfection-love

My desire-life plunged
Into the life of destruction-sound.

My aspiration-life plunges
Into the life of satisfaction-silence.

My realisation-life shall plunge
Into the life of perfection-love.

752. New creation, new creator

I don't want beauty,
I want power.

I don't want power,
I want love.

I don't want love,
I want light.

I don't want light,
I want God.

I don't want God,
I want a new creation
With the new creator: C.K.G.

753. Because of you two

Morality, you are too narrow,
Too limited.
Spirituality, you are too rigid,
Too strict.
Because of you two
My sweet beloved Supreme
Has become too compassionate,
Too indulgent.

754. A more sincere student

Although
God does not love me,
I love God.

Although
God does not need me,
I need God.

I am sure one day God will realise
His sad folly
And start loving me and needing me,
Perhaps as a more sincere student
Than I am.

755. Loud questions, silent answers

Earth's loud question:
Does God exist?

My loud question:
Is God alive?

Heaven's silent answer to earth:
God does exist,
But
Not for you.

Heaven's silent answer to me:
God is alive,
But
Not in you.

756. The heart of tempting future

The animal in me tells me
How powerful I shall be.
The human in me tells me
How soulful I shall be.
The divine in me tells me
How fruitful I shall be.
Alas, I am doomed to live
In the heart of tempting future.

757. Our two signatures

Your signature embodies
Earth-aspiration.
My signature embodies
Heaven-compassion.
Don't think I am proud.
Only one thing
I want you to know:
If I don't dare to be sincere
To you,
Who else will and who else can?

758. Claims

Day-king claims my eyes
To be of service to him.
Night-queen claims my heart
To be of service to her.
I claim my life
To be of service to God-Dream
And
Man-transformation.

759. Perpetual failure

I dream of nothing else
But a perpetual morning.

I see nothing else
But a perpetual evening.

I am nothing else
But a perpetual failure.

760. The marathon of my fears

Lord, my fears are tired.
They need some rest,
They deserve some rest.
I hope You agree with me
Totally.
If not, my fears shall continue
To run their endless marathon.

761. One step ahead

My aspiration-dreams
Have cancelled
My desire-dreams.
Therefore
I am happy with my life
At long last.
My Lord Supreme
Is one step ahead.
Behold, He is mightily proud of me.

762. Creation-power

Man-power
Wants to create a new universe.

God-power
Wants to create a new man.

My power
Wants to create
A strict God
And
A perfect man.

763. Before God's Feet

Before God's kind Heart
I am half-stone.

Before God's strong Arms
I am half-animal.

Before God's clear Eye
I am half-human.

Before God's compassionate and forgiving Feet,
I must say, I am more than half-divine.

764. Wings

Satan claims to have
Imperious wings.

Heaven claims to have
Precious wings.

Earth claims to have
Generous wings.

God refuses to claim
His gracious Wings.

765. I know, I know

I know, I know
He is the only ideal of my life.

I know, I know
He is the only thing real in my life.

I know, I know
His Compassion-smile
Is my Eternity's all.

766. My armour

My faith in God
Was my yesterday's armour
Against world-temptation.

My patience in God
Is my today's armour
Against world-aggression.

My surrender to God
Shall be my tomorrow's armour
Against world-destruction.

767. Be careful where you joke

Be careful!
Don't joke at earth's gate.
Earth will bind you and blind you.

Be careful!
Don't joke at Heaven's gate.
Heaven may not accept you,
Heaven may not bless you.

Be careful!
Don't joke at God's Gate.
He may employ you to guard His Gate,
He may burden you with all
His endless responsibilities.

768. Earth-time, Heaven-time

When earth-time sings,
I cry and cry.
I have failed, and no time is left.
When Heaven-time sings,
I cry and cry.
True, I have failed
And I am extremely tired,
But
Cruel Heaven-time
Neither discharges me
Nor grants me any rest.

769. I have discovered

Man's unconditional cry
I have felt.

God's unrevealed Smile
I have seen.

God's unmanifested Love
I have discovered.

770. This time I shall not forget

This time I shall not forget
To ask my morning-brother to give me
His beautiful eyes as a gift.

This time I shall not forget
To ask my noon-father to give me
His powerful arms as a gift.

This time I shall not forget
To ask my evening-mother to give me
Her peaceful heart as a gift.

771. I hope one day

Earth-sincerity meditates with me.
Therefore
I hope to see
One day
God's Face.

Earth-dedication meditates with me.
Therefore
I hope to be
One day
In God's Heart.

772. My songs

My earth-songs
Devotedly find me.

My Heaven-songs
Soulfully illumine me.

My God-songs
Triumphantly immortalise me.

773. The heart that cannot fail

His is the tongue
That cannot tell lies.

His is the life
That cannot ignore.

His is the mind
That cannot deceive.

His is the heart
That cannot fail.

774. The empty heart of night

When I am one
With the empty heart of night,
I offer her God's Heaven-light.

When I am one
With the heavy heart of night,
I offer her God's earth-sacrifice.

775. His Eternity's goal-manifestation

HIS ETERNITY'S GOAL-MANIFESTATION

His Eternity's voyage-dedication
Is good.

His Eternity's pilgrim-realisation
Is better.

His Eternity's goal-manifestation
Is still unpredicted,
Nay, undecided.

776. Our fate

Slowly you glowed
But
Quickly you sank.
Alas, that is your fate.
Do you want to know
What my fate is?
I never glowed
And never shall.
I have been sinking and sinking.
Do you know when I started sinking?
Long before the birth of Time.

777. Heart and soul

The heart is better
Than the mind.
The mind knows it
But
It does not want to admit it.

The soul is better
Than the heart.
The heart knows it
And admits it.
Plus,
It takes great pride
In the sublime achievements
Of its ever-loving superior.

778. An iota of will

I do not need
Factory-thoughts
To help me
In my self-discovery.
I need only
An iota of will
For my self-discovery,
God-victory
And
Earth-mastery.

779. See if I am right

Who says
Ignorance-life is
Beyond transformation?
Not true!
If you do not believe me,
Just enter into my past-room
And see if I am right.

Who says
God-discovery is
Beyond realisation?
Not true!
Just enter into my present-palace
And see if I am right.

780. They shield my life

My God-faith shields my life
From despair-tornado.

My soul-faith shields my life
From doubt-clouds.

My heart-faith shields my life
From jealousy-frowns.

781. His decay

When
He and doubt became good friends
His earth-aspiration decayed,
His Heaven-satisfaction decayed,
His God-compassion decayed,
His heart-perfection decayed.

782. God-forgiveness

Ugliness is his inner life,
Deceitfulness is his outer life.
God-forgiveness transforms
His inner life
And
God-forgiveness perfects
His outer life.

783. Warnings to pride

O proud mind,
Be careful!
Humiliation is chasing you.

O proud vital,
Be careful!
Destruction is nearing you.

O proud body,
Be careful!
Ignorance-tiger is observing you.

784. In God's Compassion-world

In God's Compassion-world,
My heart-cry
And
God's Love-smile
Together meet.

In God's Compassion-world,
My surrender-ascent
And
God's Immortality-descent
Together meet.

785. Why to worship you

Just because
You have realised God
I do not have to worship you.

Just because
You are revealing God
I do not have to worship you.

Just because
You are manifesting God
I do not have to worship you.

Just because
You love me more
Than I love myself
I shall worship you soulfully,
My heart shall worship you eternally,
My soul shall worship you unconditionally.

786. Even while dying

Even while dying
He was praying to Heaven
For world-transformation.

Even while dying
He was praying to earth
For earth-satisfaction.

Even while dying
He was praying to God
For death-illumination.

787. My Master

My Master knew me imperfect,
Yet
His heart loved me.

My Master knew me unworthy,
Yet
His soul blessed me.

My Master knew me ignorant,
Yet
His life embraced me.

788. When I surrender

When I pray
I discover my long-lost God-Height.

When I meditate
I discover my long-lost God-Depth.

When I surrender
I discover my long-sought God-Satisfaction.

789. My death is irreparable

Your death is inconceivable.
Only Heaven is aware of it.
His death is incomparable.
Only death is aware of it.
My death is irreparable.
Friends, do not mind!
At times I allow my pride-horse
To play its usual role.

790. Climb down, climb up

Heaven climbed down
To measure his feet.
Earth climbed up
To measure her head.
I climb up to assist
Earth in her aspiration-flight.
I climb down to assist
Heaven in his dedication-dive.

791. A bright affirmer of God-Love

Yesterday
Made your mind a dark denier
Of God-Love.

Today
Your heart has made you a bright affirmer
Of God-Love.

Tomorrow
Your soul shall make you grow
Into the ever-illumining God-Love.

792. My different lives

Heart-joy
Is my embracing life.

Is a challenging soldier.

Earth-aspiration
Is a Truth-winning soldier.

Earth-love
Is a God-manifesting soldier.

794. Be careful!

Be careful!
Doubt-power is contagious.

Be careful!
Jealousy-power is outrageous.

Be careful!
Depression-power is dangerous.

Be careful!
World-power is suspicious.

795. It is another thing to fall

It is one thing to love,
Another thing to fall.
It is one thing to look up,
Another thing to fall.
It is one thing to become,
Another thing to fall.
But
It is not two things
To escape and fall.

796. The forgiver

God has not forgiven
My suspicious mind.
It is God's Indulgence
That has forgiven.

God has not forgiven
My ferocious vital.
It is God's Compassion
That has forgiven.

797. My hunger

Yesterday
I was a power-hungry animal.

Today
I am a peace-hungry man.

Tomorrow
I shall become
A love-hungry God.

798. He becomes a perfect God

When
He smiles,
He is a perfect Buddha.

When
He cries,
He is a perfect Ramakrishna.

When
He dances,
He is a perfect Krishna.

When
He prays,
He is a perfect Christ.

When
He meditates,
He no longer remains an Avatar;
He becomes another God,
A perfect God.

799. Too much respect and love

You have too much respect
For the world.
I wish the world could give you
Something in return.

You have too much love
For the world.
I am sure God will crown
Your earth-dedication.

800. You are armed

You are armed in mind-honesty.
You will go far.

You are armed in heart-purity.
You will go farther.

You are armed in soul-beauty.
You will go farthest.

You are armed in God-receptivity.
You will grow into the ever-transcending
Divinity's Reality.

801. Life's younger brother

He was Life's younger brother.
Therefore
He was always given special attention
In the world of Life.

He was Death's elder brother.
Therefore
He had to take care
Of his younger brother.
This is the only reason
He used to spend so much time
With his younger brother, Death.

802. My transformed life

Imperfections can be transformed
Into perfect perfections.
Look, every morning
My transformed life
Prays to God
And
Meditates on God.
Every evening
My transformed life
Speaks about God
And
Serves God-food
To God-hungry souls.

803. Old Master, new Master

At last he remembers
His old Master's name.
Justice-height
Is his old Master's name.
Alas he has forgotten
His new Master's name.
Compassion-light
Is his new Master's name.

804. Your obedience

You fool,
Your obedience does not
Humiliate you.
Your obedience illumines you,
Your obedience takes you
To your own long-forgotten heights.
Your obedience
Is your earth-life's
And
Heaven-life's
Friend unparalleled.

805. Unmistakably so

Unbelievably but unmistakably,
I shall become another God.
Unmistakably yet unbelievably,
It is I who can
And will grant you realisation
After I have perfected
Your life within, without.

806. Just wait and see

Yesterday
I was the devouring desire of my animal life.
Today
I am the frustrated desire of my human life.
Tomorrow
I shall be a desire-liberated cosmic god.
Just wait and see,
Just see and wait
For your own hour.

807. Enough!

Hope, enough of your mockery!
Stop!

Doubt, enough of your treachery!
Stop!

Ignorance, enough of your bravery!
Stop!

Fate, enough of your slavery!
Stop!

808. I do not doubt

I do not doubt man.
Why?
Am I a fool
To doubt my today's self?
No, I can't be that kind of fool.

I do not doubt God.
Why?
Am I a fool
To doubt my tomorrow's self?
No, I can't be that kind of fool.

809. Always I am left behind

Always
I am left behind
Because
I think too much.

Always
I am left behind
Because
I speak too much.

Always
I am left behind
Because
I love so little.

Always
I am left behind
Because
I serve so little.

810. The eyes

The eyes of night
I was.
My vital life tempted the whole world.

The eyes of light
I am.

The eyes of God
I shall be.
My perfection-life shall immortalise the whole world.

811. Roads

Lord, the road to Heaven —
I must say,
My fear does not like it.
"I see."

Lord, the road to hell —
I must say,
My pride does not like it.
"I see."

Lord, the road to earth —
I must say,
My curiosity likes it.
Therefore
Here is my existence-light.
"I see."

812. To make me happy

My soul
Embraces earth-essence
To make me happy.

My body
Embraces Heaven-essence
To make me happy.

My Saviour-God
Embraces earth-substance
To make me happy.

My beloved God
Embraces Heaven-substance
To make me happy.

813. I do not blame him

His Compassion-wisdom failed.
Therefore
He left earth-reality
For Heaven-dream.
But I do not blame him.
Earth doubted
His Consciousness-light
Ruthlessly.
Earth challenged
His authority's divine authenticity
Sleeplessly.

814. It really happened

It really happened:
God asked me to come down
And work for Him on earth.

It really happened:
I begged Him not to throw me
Into the Truth-devouring,
Light-devouring earth.

It really happened:
God told me that my service-light
Was badly needed for earth-transformation,
And that I was supremely chosen
By His own Height supreme.

815. A common weakness

A common weakness:
To love ignorance.

A common weakness:
To doubt the existence of the soul.

A common weakness:
To forget God.

A common weakness:
To exaggerate Heaven-bliss.

A common weakness:
To ignore earth-beauty.

816. When suspicion wakes

When
Aspiration wakes,
Suspicion sleeps.
When
Suspicion wakes,
Destruction jumps,
Life-beauty starves,
Heart-love dies.

817. Out of sheer generosity

Death, it is out of sheer generosity
And not out of necessity
That I give you my body.

Heaven, it is out of sheer generosity
And not out of necessity
That I give you my soul.

Earth, it is out of sheer God-necessity,
And my necessity too,
And not out of generosity
That I give you my God-achievements.

Is to make my heart see
Heaven-light.

Is to make my soul see
Earth-night,
Earth-cry,
Earth-tears.

Although I am finite,
Am I not Yours, Father?
"Daughter, you are."

"Daughter, you are."
Although I forget to love You,
Am I not Yours, Father?
"Daughter, you are.
My daughter sweet, you are."

820. I and death

Without fear.

My heart conquered death
With love.

My soul embraced death
With compassion.

I employ death
With no hesitation.

821. From now on

Heaven, for God's sake, do not accuse
My poor body any more.
My body
Is determined to aspire.
And I assure you,
It will aspire from now on.

Earth, for God's sake, do not accuse
My poor soul any more.
My soul
Is determined to reveal its light.
And I assure you,
It will reveal its light from now on.

822. My life-beauty

My life-beauty knows no ignorance,
My heart-light knows no death,
My mind-peace knows no sound-life,
My vital-force knows no pleasure-life,
My body-surrender knows no sorrow.

823. I run to death

I run to death
Because
Death loves my body,
If not my entire being.

Death runs to me
Because
I love death's silence,
If not its entire philosophy.

824. The throne of hell

You do not have to go to hell
To see the throne of hell.
Just ask your suspicion-mind
To show you the throne of hell.

But make you sit
On the throne of hell
With no charge at all.
Further, it will gladly allow you
To keep the throne
For your daily use.

No!

What is God's latest discovery?
Man's gratitude-flames?
Yes!
Yes!

826. Yet God loves me

I have all evil within me;
Yet God loves me.
Why?
Because He knows that my false modesty
Is not as bad as your God-denial.
Further, God knows that in my heart of hearts
I love Him dearly
And
Try to please Him unconditionally.

827. Great years

Heaven's great year is
1931.
Why?
Because in that year
I challenged earth-ignorance.

Earth's great year is
1944.
Why?
Because in that year
I discovered
Who I eternally am.

828. First place

Your God-love
Gets the first place in my heart.
Your God-service
Gets the first place in my mind.
Your God-manifestation
Gets the first place in my life.
You do not know,
Perhaps you will never know,
How proud I am always of you.

829. The life that the Supreme lives

To me,
The life that the cosmic gods live
Is too monotonous.
Therefore
I do not care for it at all.

To me,
The life that the human beings live
Is too vociferous.
Therefore
I do not care for it either.

To me,
The life that the Supreme lives
Is most gracious.
Therefore
I sincerely care for it.

830. My Lord's three faces

My Compassion-Lord
Is the eternal Forgiver.

My Love-Lord
Is the eternal Saviour.

My Peace-Lord
Is the eternal Comforter.

831. A strange marriage

The son of ignorance:
Doubt.
The daughter of ignorance:
Jealousy.
They loved each other so dearly
That they got married.
Imagine, brother and sister
Getting married!
But it did happen.
They now have a son:
Destruction.

832. Lord of my Heaven-life

O Lord of my Heaven-life,
Can I have You
As my own, very own?
"Amen!"

O Lord of my earth-life,
Will You have me
As Your own, very own?
"Amen!"

833. Death's dateless night

Death's dateless night
Is for him
Who knows how to cry
But
Forgets to try.

Life's dateless day
Is for him who does not try,
Just claims it.

Is this the correct thing to do?
My Lord says
It is absolutely correct.

834. My life needs

My earth-life
Needs more beauty.

My Heaven-life
Needs more duty.

My realisation-life
For God-manifestation
Needs more of Heaven-soul
And
Earth-body.

835. God is pleased

Yesterday
I wrote good words.
God was pleased.
He shook hands with me.

Today
I am thinking good thoughts.
God is pleased.
He is blessing me.

Tomorrow
I shall do good things.
God will be pleased.
He will embrace me.

836. My silence-life

My silence-life
Knows not how to boast.

My sound-life
Knows no modesty-coast.

My God-life
Knows no falsehood-host.

837. Earth-mirror and Heaven-mirror

My thought-life whispers:
I will never see the Face of God.
My will-life thunders:
Who else is God,
Who else can be God if not me?
Is it not ridiculous to try
To see my own face?
I can easily see my face
At any time I want.
Earth-mirror and Heaven-mirror
Are always at my service.

838. Today I am a little tired

Be careful,
Arms of falsehood!
Tomorrow I shall challenge
Your power.
Today I am a little tired.

Be careful,
Eyes of ignorance!
Tomorrow I shall challenge
Your vision.
Today I am a little tired.

Be careful,
Head of Satan!
Tomorrow I shall challenge
Your brain.
Today I am a little tired.

839. Favours

Heaven,
I shall do you a favour.
I shall hide your deliberate indifference
Inside my mind-cave.
Now you do me a favour:
Place my heart-tears
Inside your eternally sailing
Dream-boat.

840. Hesitation

Where do I hesitate?
In my mind-room.
When do I hesitate?
The moment I shake hands
With falsehood.
Why do I hesitate?
I hesitate
Because
Still I have not claimed myself
As God's supremely chosen child.

841. Who expects?

Who expects my respect?
Only a fool.

Who expects my love?
Only a thief.

Who expects my concern?
Only a rogue.

Who expects my compassion?
Only a weakling.

842. A reasonable God

You
Are a reasonable God.
Therefore
I eternally live inside
Your Dream-boat.

You
Are a reasonable man.
Therefore
I ceaselessly flow
With your hope-river.

843. I am my own lover

In my body-life
I am my own destroyer.
In my vital-life
I am my own disaster.
In my mind-life
I am my own laughter.
In my heart-life
I am my own lover.

844. Because of our sincerity

Because
Of my necessity,
I love God.

Because
Of His Divinity,
God loves me.

Because
Of our sincerity,
We shall together
Forever stay.

845. Goals

To be
God's sound-son
Was the goal of my outer life.

To be
God's silence-son
Was the goal of my inner life.

To be
God's surrender-son
Is the goal of my God-realisation-life.

846. My present wisdom-light

I developed my first fear
By thinking that God did not care for me.
I developed my second fear
By thinking that God did not need me.
I developed my third and last fear
By thinking that God did not create me.

But now I know
How stupid I was.
And now I do something
Really significant and wise:
I do not allow my present wisdom-light
To mix with my ex-stupidity-night.

847. Birthday observance

Heaven's birthday I observe on earth,
Inside my silence-soul.

Earth's birthday I observe in Heaven,
Inside my vision-goal.

Heaven is one year younger than my beauty;
Earth is one year younger than my duty.

848. All are lacking

Doubt is something
That has no beauty.

Jealousy is something
That has no sanctity.

Insecurity is something
That has no unity.

849. Forgiveness

God in me has forgiven
Heaven-intolerance,
Heaven-indifference.
But I
Cannot and shall not
Even try.
Never!


God in me has forgiven
Earth-aggressiveness,
Earth-possessiveness.
But I
Cannot and shall not
Even try.
Never!

850. God's eternal Home

Your heart
Is God's eternal Home.
Don't you see it?
Don't you feel it?
"No, I don't."
Alas, alas,
Then stay in my home, at least.
Don't get lost.
Stay in my house
Until I can take you
To God's Home, your real Home.

851. Even my ignorance knows

Why you love me
Is really far above
My earthly reasoning mind.

Why I need you
My heart-love knows,

967. A child of God-experience

Darkness, you want to know what I am?
I am a rock of defence!
Ignorance, you want to know who I am?
I am an eternal child of God-experience!

968. Two interpreters

He has two interpreters.
His earth-experience-realities
Are interpreted by his doubting mind.
His Heaven-promise-dreams
Are interpreted by his aspiring heart.

969. God-Perfection

Truth is God-Birth,
Peace is God-Life,
Love is God-Ascendence,
Light is God-Perfection.

Be true!
Your heart is God's Compassion-light.

Be true!
Your soul is God's Vision-height.

Be true!
Your life is God's Preparation-pride.

Thoughtless thoughts must not engross
Your concentration-power.

Meaningless thoughts must not blight
Your meditation-peace.

Soulless thoughts must not poison
Your contemplation-light.

972. Why do you judge?

Why do you judge
Others' capacities by your own?
If you have more capacity
You will ridicule them
Unnecessarily.
If you have less capacity
You will fail to fathom them
Deplorably.

973. Each day

If I live in the heart-cry
And soul-smile,
Each day
Is a God-ordained task,
Each day
Is a God-given opportunity,
Each day
Is a God-fulfilling reality.

974. Thoughts of God-necessity

I think thoughts of God-love,
I see thoughts of God-beauty,
I love thoughts of God-duty,
I grow thoughts of God-necessity.

975. You must answer

You must immediately answer
The challenge of evil.
You must,
If you want God-realisation
And
Life-perfection on earth.

You must unconditionally answer
The call of light.
You must,
If you want God-manifestation
And
God-satisfaction on earth.

976. My needs

World-comfort not for me.
I do not need it.
World-pleasure not for me.
I do not need it.

World-salvation all for me;
I need it and I need it.
World-perfection all for me;
I need it and I need it.

977. Whom do I fight?

With whom do I fight?
With you?
No!
With your ignorance?
Yes!

Whom do I love?
You?
No!
My Beloved within you?
Yes!

978. My soul shall be

Heaven-enjoyer
My soul was.

Earth-instructor
My soul is.

Heaven's complete satisfaction-creator,
Earth's perfect perfection-builder
My soul shall be.

979. Let me control your thoughts

Let me control your thoughts.
You have tried so hard, so long
To control your thoughts,
Yet satisfaction-dawn
Is far away from you.

Let me control your thoughts.
Just give me the satisfaction
Of serving you.
I shall please you
With success-flowers
And feed you
With progress-fruits.

980. The treasures of my Kingdom-light

I want you to enjoy
The treasures of my Kingdom-light.
But just do me a favour:
Give up the pleasures of earth-cave.
In case you do not want
To give up the pleasures of earth-cave,
Just remember that the treasures of my
Kingdom-light
Are still all for you.
They are your birthright.

981. The throne of love

I sat on the throne of truth.
My soul enjoyed it.

I sat on the throne of light.
My heart enjoyed it.

I sat on the throne of love.
My entire life enjoyed it.

982. When your eyes pray

When your eyes pray
I see a sea of Peace.

When your eyes meditate
I see a sea of Light.

When I swim in the sea of Peace
I sing the song of God-achievement.

When I swim in the sea of Light
I sing the song of God-distribution.

983. Do you need me?

Do you like me?
Then show me your heart-joy.

Do you love me?
Then show me your soul-silence.

Do you need me?
Then show me your oneness-love.

984. Look at me

You looked at me
With a hurried glance;
Therefore
I could not give you anything
In spite of my best intention.

Look at me
With your heart-eye
Slowly, steadily and unerringly,
And I shall give you
My Eternity's treasure
Unreservedly
And
Ceaselessly.

985. The hallmark

The hallmark of a true Master
Is compassion-sea.

The hallmark of a true seeker
Is dedication-drop.

The hallmark of a true Goal
Is God-Beauty's flood.

The hallmark of a true soul
Is a minute of Duty's love.

986. Love me more

Love me more.
You will understand me.

Love me more.
You will forget your little 'I'
And remember your big 'I'
And your God-Eye.

Love me more.
You will see
What I can and shall make of you:
Another Lord Supreme.

987. Tell others

Tell others that I need them.
I shall need you more.

Tell others that I love them.
I shall love you more.

Tell others that I shall be
Proud of them eventually.
I shall be proud of you immediately.

988. I shall never fail you

I shall never fail you.
Never!
My promise-flood depends not
Upon your aspiration-drop,
Or your perfection-grain.
It depends only on my own
Love-thirsty and
Oneness-hungry
Necessity.

989. I shall not fail you

Even
If you doubt me,
I shall not fail you.

Even
If you betray me,
I shall not fail you.

Even
If you deny me,
I shall not fail you.

I shall fail you
If ever you treasure self-pity.

990. I shall use my God-Power

Don't fling defiance at me!
I shall use my God-Power
To transform your ignorance-night
Into God-light.
I shall compel you
To be the distributor of
God-Height,
God-Depth
And
God-Nectar.

991. The neighbour

Your self-importance
Is a clear sign
Of your inner helplessness.

Your self-declaration
Is a clear sign
Of your inner emptiness.

But you are fortunate
Because
Your self-importance
And
Your self-declaration
Have
God-Compassion
As their immediate neighbour.

992. No easy lesson

I teach no easy lesson;
I give no easy love;
I reveal no easy Light;
I am no easy Delight.

993. Long before

I answered you
Long before you prayed.
But alas,
Your heart-receptivity
Was not functioning.

I loved you
Long before you received imagination-gift.
But alas,
Your oneness-necessity
Was not pressing.

994. Let others serve you

Let others share in your every gain.
Let others share in your every pain.
Let others love you
The way they want to.
Let others serve you
The way they want to.
You love them because you know
That their hearts are of your dream-boat,
And their lives are for your reality-shore.

995. A God-man

Not what you receive,
But what you give
Makes you a God-man.

Not what you conceive,
But what you achieve
Makes you a God-man.

Not how many times you try,
But how soulfully you cry
Makes you a God-man.

996. I am fortunate

I am freely forgiven;
Therefore
I am fortunate.

I am secretly perfected;
Therefore
I am fortunate.

I am openly needed;
Therefore
I am fortunate.

I am unconditionally loved;
Therefore
I am fortunate, really fortunate.

997. Your identity

Who says
You are a weak mortal?
You are not!

Who says
You are an erring human child?
You are not!

What are you then?
You are God in His preparation
For His ever-transcending Height.

998. To think of God

To think of God
Is to live in God's Kingdom.

To pray to God
Is to live in His Palace.

To meditate on God
Is to sit on His Throne.

To love God
Is to sing and dance in His Heart.

Offer your heart-tears
To God.
This is how you must
Pray to God.

Offer your life-experiences
To God.
This is how you must
Meditate on God.

Offer your dream-goal
To God.

Love God.
