Silence speaks, part 7

Return to the table of contents

1.

Truth loves the mind
Of wisdom-clarity.
Peace loves the heart
Of goodness-charity.

2.

From God's Heart-Eye
Why do you hide?
Just be your soul's
Gratitude-tide.

3.

You are your mind's
Disobedience-day.
Therefore, your life
Dark ignorance-clay.

4.

How can your heart see
Without the hope-ray?
How can your life live
Without the peace-day?

5.

In God's Satisfaction-Test
Your life stands first
Because you are your soul's
Heaven-born thirst.

6.

You are your seeker-heart's
Expectation-caused failure.
Just become unconditional.
Lo, your joy endless, pure.

7.

You have a strong fibre
Of pure integrity.
Therefore, your heart is flooded
With God-Divinity.

8.

Because you enjoy
Your mind's desire-madness,
Your heart's blue bird
Is smitten with sadness.

9.

You are your heart
Of dark ingratitude,
Yet you shamelessly desire
God's Infinitude.

10.

You are doomed to a lifetime
Of stark misery,
For your Godless mind breathes
Deathless treachery.

11.

God-gratitude-examination
You always fail.
Therefore, your prayer-life
Is of no avail.

12.

Every day you and your mind
Enjoy doubt-rain.
Therefore, how can you ride
The God-Bliss-Train?

13.

Your excellence is measured
By your life's commitment.
Your perfection is measured
By your heart's enlightenment.

14.

How do you dare
To long for God's Energy
When you enjoy
All levels of lethargy?

15.

If your mind wastes
Powerful silence-time,
Your heart will fail
To enter ecstasy-clime.

16.

Be not your mind's
Barren morning-tree.
Be not your heart's
Suffering evening-sea.

17.

Have a little courage!
You can go one step more.
Behold your Lord smiling
And dancing at the Shore.

18.

O seeker, your desire-life
Is indeed a self-mockery.
Only your aspiration-life
Is an endless joy-discovery.

19.

Today your mind enjoys
The vital-circus-sense-life.
Tomorrow your poor heart
Will be stabbed by your frustration-knife.

20.

Keep your gratitude-heart-book
Always wide open.
In God's Satisfaction-Home
You will never be forgotten.

21.

If you desire to live on earth,
Just smile endlessly.
If you desire to be perfect,
Just give sleeplessly.

22.

His Compassion-Songs
Before me my Lord sings.
Therefore, I am my heart's
Heaven-climbing wings.

23.

Outer beauty smiles
When my heart-bird wings.
Inner beauty with me
My God-Song sings.

24.

Be not afraid of
Your own inner height,
For it was born of
Your soul's God-Delight.

25.

Only one thing shines
Between Heaven and earth:
My Lord's sleepless
Compassion-Forgiveness-Birth.

26.

Inside your weeping heart
No more God's Love is dawning
Because yours has become
A hopeless, feeble longing.

27.

A heart of gold-surrender
Is divinely beautiful.
A life of diamond-gratitude
Is supremely fruitful.

28.

Although your heart
Is Divinity's perfection-host,
Your mind is ever
A frightening impurity-ghost.

29.

Do show me the way
To surrender-city.
I wish to reclaim
My own divinity.

30.

Silence is mind-strength.
Peace is heart-power.
Truth is soul-song.
Delight is God-Shower.

31.

Since your mind's outer weather
Is disappointing,
Your heart's inner garden
Is not blossoming.

32.

My love of God is the answer
To my life-question.
My surrender is the highest
Height of my perfection.

33.

Can you not see,
Your God-dreams are soundly sleeping?
Do you not know,
Your God-promise you are not keeping?

34.

You fool!
If you follow
Your mind's unclean thought-road,
You will be forced to carry
Futility's frustration-load.

35.

My Lord's Compassion-Eye
Patrols my life's heart-door.
Therefore, I never answer
The world's ignorance-roar.

36.

God is ready to grant your life
His fruitful Compassion-Nest.
What you need is to quickly pass
Your heart's receptivity-test.

37.

Long vanished are my foolish mind's
Tempest-frowns.
God-Oneness my aspiring heart's
Victory crowns.

38.

Once I transcend the highs and lows
Of my God-hunger-life,
My heart of smiles will never see
Doubt's destruction-knife.

39.

Opportunity-flowers
Are blossoming at every moment.
Gather them with eagerness.
Delay not your heart's enlightenment.

40.

God's God-Hour strikes for man
Every single day,
But man continues playing
His soulless, earth-bound play.

41.

Heaven daily offers
A faith-endowment.
Can you not enjoy
This supreme present?

42.

Stop taking daily
Your mind's doubt-pill.
God will grant you
His Heart's Oneness-Thrill.

43.

God's Compassion-Eye
Everywhere lives.
Man's gratitude-heart
Nowhere is.

44.

If you become
Your heart's purity-nest,
Inside you God
Will cheerfully rest.

45.

Every day burn
Your heart's purity-incense.
Earth will revoke
Your impurity-license.

46.

How can you be brave,
And also, how can you be good,
If you let your mind reside
In mistrust-neighbourhood?

47.

To worthless lethargy-excuses
Surrender not, O hopeless life,
Or soon my eyeless mind will take up
Self-destruction's violence-knife.

48.

Your aspiration-life now lives
At God's Compassion-Feet.
Therefore, your heart and God's Heart
Together soon shall meet.

49.

Each thought of yours
Is a desire-disaster;
Yet God is your
Compassion-Height-Master.

50.

Do not retire,
Do not retire.
Live with your
Inspiration-fire.

51.

Inside your mind's
Desire-forest
Never expect
Fulfilment-rest.

52.

My heart's sincere devotion-light
Must fully cover me
Before I dare to climb up high
God-realisation-tree.

53.

Your doubting mind
If you constantly threaten,
Your soulful heart
God will soon enlighten.

54.

O seeker,
Sleeplessly try to find
Your life's
Illumination-mind.

55.

For God alone if you weep
Your real heart-tears,
You will transform your mind
With all its fears.

56.

Become God's conscious
Surrender-toy.
He will grant you His Heart's
Power and Joy.

57.

Within and without
You are totally blind.
Therefore, you treasure
Your doubting mind.

58.

I soulfully meditate
And daily pray
To live in my heart's
Sweet purity-day.

59.

In this life, if you want
To achieve many things,
First start clipping
Your mind's doubt-wings.

60.

My heart is my life's
Oneness-ambassador.
My life is my Lord's
Compassion-Splendour.

61.

Yesterday I opened
My heart's enthusiasm-account.
Today I see my Lord's
Supreme Satisfaction-Fount.

62.

O burn aspiration-incense
Before your heart-shrine.
Behold, the Lord Supreme
Is coming with you to dine.

63.

My Lord saves me
Because He is so kind.
My Lord forgives me
Because I am so blind.

64.

If you are your heart's
Silver purity-flow,
Your life becomes God's
Bright Perfection-Glow.

65.

No joy, no joy,
But only pain
If you embrace
Ignorance-chain!

66.

In God's Compassion-Nest
If you want to live,
Your dedication-life
You will have to give.

67.

Live inside your heart,
And not elsewhere.
Your prayer-life soon
God-Fruit will bear.

68.

My aspiration-heart
Is for my gratitude-measurement.
My dedication-life
Is for my oneness-improvement.

69.

At times it is better
Not to know.
Then your heart-flames in pure
Innocence grow.

70.

Who is worthy
Of God's Blessing-Light?
He who disowns
His mind's binding night.

71.

What I call
My aspiration-dance,
My Lord calls
His Satisfaction-Glance.

72.

Finally surrenders
The desire-life
With its temptation—
    destruction-knife.

73.

Closed tight is your heart's
Aspiration-curtain.
Wound taut is your life's
Self-imposed bondage-chain.

74.

Faith-life blossoms
In confidence-heart.
Satisfaction-soul avoids
Confusion-mart.

75.

Because you have dropped out
Of the inner race,
God has withdrawn from you
His infinite Grace.
