Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees, part 50

Return to the table of contents

49001

My life is full of
God-hopes
And God-dreams.

49002

I must surrender
To God’s Will
In full measure.

49003

God is God’s Plan —
I am at His Service
All the time.

49004

God is my Adviser —
I am His Advice-fulfilment.

49005

When you are with God,
You must speed up
Again and again
In everything.

49006

My smiling heart
Is only for one Person —
My Lord Supreme.

49007

God’s Concern
For my heart
And my life
I shall never be able
To measure.

49008

May my Lord
Be my heart’s
Eternal Guest.

49009

Inside my heart-cottage,
Every day
My Lord’s Presence-Beauty
Is increasing.

49010

Every day
My heart goes to my mind
With the hope
Of transforming my mind.

49011

In the morning,
All the dear angels of my heart
Come to me,
To sing with me, dance with me
And play with me.

49012

My love of God
Will transform my frustration-life
Into my devotion-heart.

49013

My soul-journey
To my Lord Supreme
Will never end.

49014

The mind may fly,
But with no destination.

49015

Practise your meditation —
Your Destination
Will come closer to you
Day by day.

49016

My outer life
Has only one choice:
My inner poise.

49017

Never remain inactive
If you want to please God.

49018

I have only one Friend —
God.
All the rest are my acquaintances.

49019

I have a false boss
And a real boss.
My false boss is my ego-pride
And my real boss is my heart-delight.

49020

I am detached
Totally
From the whole world.

49021

I am attached
Sleeplessly
To my Inner Pilot.

49022

My Lord tells me
That the transformation
Of my nature
Is not the most difficult task.

49023

Little by little,
My soul’s light
Is coming to the fore.

49024

Every day
My love of God
Is increasing
Amazingly.

49025

When I am in the presence
Of my Master,
I strongly feel that I am his,
Only his.

49026

My Lord,
Do take me seriously
Only when I speak very highly
Of You.

49027

Every night
I dream only of one thing:
My Lord is coming back.

49028

This time I am determined
To recognise my Lord
When He comes to visit me.

49029

Pure I was.
Perfect I must be.

49030

My life can never be shattered.
Why?
I am already sheltered
At my Lord’s Lotus-Feet.

49031

May my inner longing for God
Every day become more pure
And more certain.

49032

I am locked under
My Lord’s Feet.
Therefore, my heart
Is all joy.

49033

My Lord, do forgive me!
From now on, I shall please You
In Your own Way.

49034

Every day
My Lord Supreme gives my heart
The world-oneness-lesson.

49035

My soul and my heart
Fly and fly
In Infinity’s Sky.

49036

I am trying to please God
At every moment.
To my great joy,
Most of the time I succeed.

49037

God’s sacred Hand
Touches my secret heart
Every day.

49038

My Lord,
Do not only capture my life,
But also bind my heart!

49039

My Lord,
Will I ever know
How deep Your Concern for me is?

49040

At every moment
I try to be
A child of my Lord’s Smile.

49041

I have left my mind-forest
For my heart-garden.

49042

My heart’s climbing flames
I cherish
More than anything else.

49043

God is every day looking
For more and more
Self-giving seekers.

49044

I drink deep
The beauty
Of my heart-moon.

49045

I fly high
With the flames
Of my life-sun.

49046

The flow of my heart’s
Divinity-river
Never stops.

49047

When I open my heart,
God blesses me
With His open Arms.

49048

Every day
I swim in the tears
Of my heart-river.

49049

Every day
God shows me
His Sweetness-flooded Smiles.

49050

Every day
I try to go beyond
My mind’s thought-world.

49051

My heart-tears
Have to be sincere,
More sincere, most sincere,
To please my Lord Supreme.

49052

I am so happy to see my Lord
Striking His Victory-Gong
Inside my mind.

49053

I love to swim,
I love to swim
In the smiling river
Of my soul!

49054

Every morning,
I become a beautiful devotion-heart
To please my Lord.

49055

The moment of bliss
We see and feel
When we are beyond thought.

49056

Not self-forgetfulness
But God-awareness
Is what I need.

49057

I love to measure
God’s Forgiveness-Heart,
Only to fail.

49058

God loves to measure
My gratitude-heart,
Only to succeed.

49059

To my greatest joy,
My aspiration-heart-cries
Are increasing measurelessly.

49060

I am praying to God
To bless me
With a sweetness-life
And a oneness-heart.

49061

May my mind
Be all willingness
And may my heart
Be all eagerness.

49062

God’s open Arms
Are telling me:
“Come, come, My child,
Do not delay!”

49063

Determination
Is
A forward march.

49064

Heaven’s highest tree
Is inviting me
To enjoy
Its divine flowers and fruits.

49065

My Lord,
Do give me the capacity
To pray to You ceaselessly.

49066

May my life be always
In between
My Lord’s Compassion-Eye
And
His Forgiveness-Heart.

49067

My heart’s inner vision
Has to be
My life’s outer reality.

49068

God’s Smiles
Are not only my possibilities
But also my absolute inevitabilities.

49069

My past failures
Are all buried
In oblivion.

49070

God’s Love
Belongs not only to the seekers,
But also
To those who do not believe in Him.

49071

My heart bows down
To God the Creator.

49072

My life bows down
To God the Creation.

49073

My heart knows
God’s Ways.

49074

My life practises
God’s Ways.

49075

My morning sunrise-meditation:
“You are my Hope;
You are my Promise;
You are my Fulfilment.”

49076

My heart
Is a direct line
To God’s Will.

49077

God’s Smile
And my gratitude-heart
Live together.

49078

When the mind rules,
We cannot expect
Justice-light.

49079

When God touches my heart,
My heart-flower
Immediately expands.

49080

Be not afraid
Of enlightenment —
Enlightenment
Is all you need.

49081

Confidence
Is the source of
Competence.

49082

The real self
Is always beyond
The world’s wrong activities.

49083

There is no question —
Self-offering
Is by far the best.

49084

Pray to God —
Immediately
You become goodness.

49085

The outer speed
Gives us success.

49086

The inner peace
Gives us progress.

49087

I am perfect only when
God’s Hand
Is on my heart.

49088

My life loves only
My God-surrender-smiles.

49089

Mine is a sleepless
God-worship-heart-life.

49090

To me,
God’s Compassion-Rain
Is nothing short of a miracle.

49091

God’s Heart
Is my only Dream.

49092

God’s Eye
Is my only Reality.

49093

My heart-road
Is at once
Ancient wisdom
And
Modern speed.

49094

The heart has to be
Full of strength
To lengthen our dedication-life.

49095

If we do not pray and meditate,
Our life will always remain
Overburdened.

49096

Love and become
Each and every message
Of your Master.

49097

Use each moment
In God-thought
And God-worship.

49098

If you really want to please God,
Then never expect anything
From Him.

49099

The wisdom of the soul
Is always ready to save us
From life-accidents
And life-struggles.

49100

I am extremely happy
When I sincerely feel
That my Master is always
For me.

49101

Slowly and steadily
My heart-sun is illumining
My mind-forest.

49102

My Lord, do give me the capacity
To spread the concern-wings
Of my heart-affection
For the whole world.

49103

Every day
I grow a new gratitude-plant
In my heart-garden.

49104

O my mind, be wise!
Follow the heart —
It really wants happiness
In your life.

49105

To love God and serve God
Is the seeker’s
Most important necessity.

49106

I am my Lord’s constant
God-hunger-choice.

49107

Ceaseless
Is ignorance-hunger.

49108

My heart is a real citizen
Of the aspiration-world.

49109

A human being
Is
A blooming divine being.

49110

The heart listens
To the soul’s advice,
But the mind never listens
To the heart’s advice.

49111

Aspiration and dedication-services
Have to be offered
Every day without fail.

49112

May I have
A purity-heart-flower
To place at the Feet
Of my Lord Supreme.

49113

I do not belong
To ignorance-dust
Any more.

49114

Every day I receive
Torrential Blessing-Light
From my Lord Supreme.

49115

Self-doubt-torture
Is most painful.

49116

Every day,
Every hour,
Every minute
Is a golden opportunity
From God.

49117

Oneness
Fulfils itself
In satisfaction.

49118

My life lives in between
Inspiration-beauty
And
Aspiration-fragrance.

49119

God’s Grace comes down
Only to lift me
High, higher, highest.

49120

We watch
God’s Footsteps.

49121

God watches
Our eyes.

49122

Aspiration-starvation
I never was
And I never shall be.

49123

I love
My aspiration-heart-hunger
More than anything else.

49124

My soul keeps rising —
And I am following
My soul.

49125

The desiring mind
Is nothing short of
A desert-life.

49126

Ignorance desperately wants
To make the sincere seeker fall,
But it does not succeed.

49127

My heart starves to death
When it enters into
The doubting mind.

49128

Wake up, wake up!
It is high time for you,
O my mind,
To aspire.

49129

I do not want
Either the inner poverty
Or the outer darkness.

49130

Before my earthly journey ends,
I must realise God.

49131

The heart of Mother Earth
Is full of tears.

49132

I already have peace
In my aspiration-heart,
But I want to bring it into
My dedication-life.

49133

My Lord,
You have given me a heart
Only to think of You,
Only to love You,
All the time.

49134

Every morning
I sing a new
God-gratitude-heart-song.

49135

My life is full of
Adoration
For a Heavenly life.

49136

My life is full of
Love and concern
For my Mother Earth.

49137

We often misuse power,
But we must not misuse
God’s Love.

49138

My Lord tells me
Never to question
My heart-experiences
Of Him.

49139

We come and go from Mother Earth,
But we leave our aspiration-heart
And dedication-life
Here on earth.

49140

We must know how to rise
High above the snares
Of ignorance-life.

49141

My heart
Is the golden key
To open up
My Lord’s Heart.

49142

My mind wants to destroy
My heart-garden
And then build a prison
In its place.

49143

Deep silence is needed
In the inner life
To make the outer life
Peaceful.

49144

My Lord,
Do come to me,
Even if You want to come
Unnoticed.

49145

Whose grave are you digging,
My mind,
If not your own?

49146

A half spiritual life
Is as useless
As no spiritual life.

49147

I am challenged,
But I am not afraid.
I shall succeed.

49148

I have no time to go elsewhere
Once I am at the feet
Of my Master.

49149

Leave aside your ignorance-world —
God will take care of it
The way He takes care of you.

49150

God wants me to lock
Each and every door
Except my heart-door.

49151

Rain or shine,
I always love to stay
At my Lord’s Feet.

49152

Each tear of my heart
Belongs to humanity.

49153

My Lord asks me
If my peace is for myself
Or for the entire humanity.

49154

The human mind
Will never be able
To understand
The divinity of Truth.

49155

The mind pretends —
It knows nothing about
The real God.

49156

God wants us not to invade
But to pervade
The world
With our aspiration and dedication.

49157

The Beauty of God
My heart has.

49158

The Fragrance of God
My soul is.

49159

My heart
Is
A God-manifestation-hope.

49160

My soul
Is
A God-manifestation-promise.

49161

We may not know
How to love God properly,
But God does not mind —
As long as we love Him.

49162

God wants me to cultivate
A ceaseless
God-hunger-life.

49163

The smiles of my heart
Come directly
From the moonlight.

49164

What I need
Is God-adoration
And not earth-promotion.

49165

Each desire
Is an unfulfilled hunger.

49166

God has singled me out
To be in
His Inner Circle.

49167

Until the heart is liberated,
The mind is liberated,
The vital is liberated
And the body is liberated —
Consciously liberated from ignorance —
God-realisation cannot be achieved.

49168

When our consciousness reaches
A certain appreciable height,
We become aware
Of our divine qualities
In plenitude.

49169

To establish permanent purity
In the mind
Is the most difficult task,
But never, never
An impossible task, no!

49170

If there is purity in the mind,
Everything is beautiful.
Plus purity goes one step forward —
Purity likes to see everything as perfect.

49171

Selflessness means goodness
In unbounded measure —
If it is selflessness, it is all goodness.

49172

Today’s selflessness
Grows into fulness
Tomorrow.

49173

Without growing sincerity,
One cannot make satisfactory progress
In the spiritual life.

49174

Sincerity has to be
The most needed reality
Between the Master and the disciple.

49175

The larger
Our receptivity-vessel,
The more divine Grace
Descends into us.

49176

Receptivity
Is of paramount importance
To make the fastest progress.

49177

Even an iota of progress
In the inner life
Is much more important
Than the so-called success-life.

49178

Detachment
Is the very beginning
Of enlightenment.

49179

Detachment
Is absolutely needed
To make the fastest progress.

49180

The more you can detach yourself
From the outer world,
The sooner you can be attached
To the Master
And the inner world.

49181

When I am in my Lord’s Boat,
I am able to keep my life
Under my perfect control.

49182

If there is no oneness,
Then there can be no fulness
In our spiritual life.

49183

The more humility we can have
    In our life,
Specially in the mind,
The faster we can make progress
    In our inner life
And the faster we can run
    Towards God.

49184

If we can sincerely cultivate joy
In our heart,
Then we can become
A choice instrument of God.

49185

Constant oneness
With the Will of God or of the Master
Is the result of love divine.

49186

Light is available everywhere —
Even in the darkest night
There is a streak of light.
Why?
Because any creation of God
Cannot be without light.
Without light, there can be
No existence on earth.

49187

There are three stages:
First is illumination,
Next is liberation,
Then realisation.
There is no big gap
Between illumination and liberation —
Once you are illumined,
Then liberation comes.
But there is a great gap
Between illumination
And realisation —
Sleepless, breathless realisation.

49188

We all know what insecurity is.
Security is the conscious awareness
Of God’s Protection.
One kind of security says:
“I love God, therefore I can feel God.”
Another type of security says:
“God protects me all the time,
Therefore I am secure.”

49189

The truth that deliberately hurts —
Mercilessly hurts —
Is worse than falsehood.

49190

Greatness-hunger
Is for ordinary people.

49191

Goodness-hunger
Is for God-seekers —
Only God-seekers.

49192

Life can be
A fast and smooth sail
If simplicity, sincerity
And humility
Are our possessions.

49193

The deeper we can take our mind
During meditation,
The brighter can be our outer life.

49194

To bring God to us
Is much easier
Than for us to go to God.

49195

During the day, when we pray
We feel that God is powerful —
Most powerful.

49196

At night, when we pray,
We feel that God is peaceful
And blissful.

49197

Universal friendship
We get from
Individual selflessness.

49198

If I sleeplessly love only God,
He will stand in front of me
And shed tears of delight.

49199

The outer beauty
At times can be
A real problem-maker.

49200

The inner beauty
Is always
A true God-pathfinder.

49201

When I think of God,
God says to me:
“Thank you, My child.”

49202

When I pray to God,
God says to me:
“My child,
Come and sit beside Me.”

49203

When I meditate on God,
God says to me:
“My child, look, look!
I have kept My Heart-Door
Wide open for you.”

49204

It is very difficult
To take God’s side,
But it is very easy
To take man’s side.

49205

When we take man’s side,
We see ourselves
Inside a very tight cage.

49206

When we take God’s side,
We sing and play and dance
Inside the most beautiful
God-Heart-Garden.

49207

To be empty of ego
Is, indeed, a most difficult task.

49208

I do not have to ask God
To love me more,
For He already loves me
Infinitely more
Than I can ever imagine.

49209

To help me make
The fastest progress,
God is becoming
More and more strict with me.

49210

When I pray and meditate
In the hours of dawn,
My consciousness flies
Higher than the highest.

49211

I am so happy
That I have no dry season
In my spiritual life.

49212

My mind is a great talker,
But my heart is a very good
God-seeker and God-lover.

49213

I shall no longer remain
The victim
Of worthless and useless frustration.

49214

At long last,
My life knows
No worry or hurry.

49215

My Lord,
Although You have forgiven me,
Please do give me the capacity
To forgive my stupid blunders.

49216

To seek God
And to find God
Go together.

49217

Be faithful to God —
He will, in no time,
Make you fruitful.

49218

In the spiritual life,
Self-doubt is a dangerous
And destructive ailment.

49219

I was, before, a God-lover.
Now I have become
Both a God-lover
And a God-supporter.

49220

The heart has many
God-assistants;
The poor mind has none.

49221

I wish my mind,
Like my heart,
To be constantly selfless.

49222

Each moment is precious,
Extremely precious,
Far beyond our imagination.

49223

I use my soul’s
Most powerful superlatives
Only for my Lord Beloved Supreme.

49224

I must have lasting
Aspiration-flames
And not a flickering
Aspiration-candle.

49225

Everything that I do
Is only for the sake
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme.

49226

God’s Love I need,
God’s Compassion I need,
God’s Forgiveness I need,
But what I need most
Is God’s Vision-Eye.

49227

I cannot believe it
When God tells me
That He needs me to be
His eternal companion.

49228

My Lord,
Remove this mask
And give me the task
To be of service to humanity.

49229

Enlightenment
Comes from
Self-effacement.

49230

I am happy to say
That I never miss
My morning and evening
Prayers and meditations.

49231

I am in the process
Of being cured
Of my self-indulgence-life.

49232

Every morning,
I place at the Feet
Of my Lord Supreme
My life-tree-flowers.

49233

At every moment
I am praying to God
To preside over
My God-loving heart.

49234

Closeness and fondness
Bind us
To our Lord Beloved Supreme.

49235

I have given my heart-key
To my Lord Beloved Supreme
For Him to use in His own Way.

49236

To me, my heart-tears
Are more beautiful
Than my life-smiles.

49237

Each prayer needs
More sincerity and intensity.

49238

God needs an empty heart
So that He can pour inside
His infinite Love.

49239

A heart-song is needed
To make my life
Happy, happier, happiest.

49240

God-surrender-joy
Is all that I need.

49241

My sunlit heart
Saves my life
From all dangers.

49242

Every morning
God expects a happy smile
From my heart.

49243

My life revolves around
The Compassion-Eye
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme.

49244

The thoughts of the mind
Must be conquered
By the will of the heart.

49245

Each positive thought
Is one step closer to God.

49246

Each joy-song
Is flooded with power.

49247

Every day
I pray to God
To bless me
With a child-heart-beauty.

49248

No more a negativity-mind —
I have now the beauty and fragrance
Of a positive heart.

49249

A gratitude-life increases
The receptivity-power
Of our heart.

49250

Cheerfulness and willingness
Can accomplish so much for us
In the spiritual life.

49251

Side by side,
I love to travel
With my Lord Supreme.

49252

I love to move around
In my Lord’s Heart-Garden.

49253

I am praying to God
To bless my heart
With plenitude-gratitude.

49254

I am sure my heart-enthusiasm
Will never fail me,
Never!

49255

Newness
Is the beginning-hunger
Of the spiritual life.

49256

To be regular and punctual
Is life’s supreme task.

49257

When I do not keep
Even an iota for myself,
God gives His All to me.

49258

I may forget
God’s Compassion-Eye,
But I can never forget
God’s Forgiveness-Heart.

49259

When I think of God,
I become greatness itself.

49260

When God thinks of me,
I become immediately happy.

49261

Do not say
‘I can’ or ‘I shall’,
But ‘I have already done it’.

49262

When I can consciously efface
My desire-hungry mind,
I begin to grow
Into the heart of perfection.

49263

The mind gets joy
When God fulfils
The mind’s desire.

49264

The soul feels miserable
When it sees that the heart
Has an earthly desire.

49265

God’s Greatness,
Indeed,
Fascinates us.

49266

God’s Goodness,
Indeed,
Immediately awakens
The human in us
To fulfil the divine in us.

49267

Unconditional love of God
Is not an impossible task.

49268

Use your wisdom!
At times, on the earthly level,
By telling only the truth,
We run into endless problems.

49269

The soul is offended
When the heart does not show
Constant devotion to God.

49270

To become God’s choice instruments,
We must start at the very beginning —
We must first be God’s slaves
Before we can become God’s companions.

49271

The outer sun
Has the power to burn us
If we come too close.

49272

The closer we come
To the inner sun,
The sooner we are illumined.

49273

Without a steady mind,
A pure heart
And a simple life,
Nobody can make
The fastest progress.

49274

Quite often
The modern music
Deafens my ears.

49275

The ancient music
Clearly shows me
Where I came from
And where I shall end
My journey.

49276

Perfection is a very, very slow process,
But it can definitely be achieved.

49277

Each good quality
Is a forward step
To arrive at Divinity’s Door.

49278

Human friendship
Is extremely fragile.

49279

Divine friendship
Is a golden bridge
Where two souls
Communicate.

49280

The beauty of the heart
Directly comes from
The fragrance of the soul.

49281

I do not pray to God
To satisfy me.
I pray to God
Only to employ me.

49282

When I entered into this world,
It looked so beautiful.
But now, alas,
The world is extremely painful.

49283

God asks us
Not to blind the world,
But to bind Him
In as many ways as possible.

49284

The fear of God
Lengthens
The distance of our journey.

49285

We torture God’s Heart
When we tell Him
That He does not love us.

49286

Dynamic thoughts
Make us feel
That we belong to God,
Only to God.

49287

God does not appreciate us at all
When we think extremely ill
Of ourselves.

49288

To love God
Is not enough.

49289

To claim God
Is more than enough.

49290

We came into the world
To proclaim God’s Victory,
But, alas, we are eager
To proclaim our own victories instead.

49291

On earth, it is easier
To feel God than to see Him.

49292

In Heaven, we may see God,
But we cannot manifest Him.

49293

There are so many ways
To God,
But I have chosen
The devotion-way.

49294

A surrender-heart
Is the fastest speed
On the way
To God’s Abode.

49295

Everything
Has its roots
In God’s Heart.

49296

My life and I
Are destined
To please God
In His own Way.

49297

God says that
He has no friend on earth —
He has only devotees
And admirers.

49298

No matter how many times
We stumble,
We shall still be able
To reach God.

49299

Do not waste time —
‘Tomorrow’ never comes!

49300

I give both
My soul’s first smile
And
My heart’s first tear
To God.

49301

Without an undying faith
In God,
We can never become perfect.

49302

My heart’s eagerness
Has to be indomitable.

49303

Happiness
Is never to be found
In my mind’s complaints.

49304

My life is changed
By my God-gratitude-heart.

49305

There is no distance
That love and faith
Cannot cover.

49306

God sincerely tells
Only a very few
That they are His favourites.

49307

Every day, as I love God
More and more,
Even so, God needs my service
More and more.

49308

Only God-servers
Are true world-improvers.

49309

Nobody properly values
God’s Compassion-Eye
And His Forgiveness-Heart.

49310

We must not ignore
Life’s fleeting moments,
For each moment is
A golden opportunity
To arrive at God’s Feet.

49311

I have begged God
To command most powerfully
Every part of my earth-existence.

49312

Be wise —
Try to see only
The beauty and fragrance
Of this earth-planet.

49313

Be true, be true
To all your God-promises.

49314

I wish to live
Between my aspiration-heart
And my dedication-life
With utmost sincerity.

49315

I am so eager to enter
My Lord’s Heart-Prison.

49316

If you want to be crowned
By God,
Then you must shun
The path of falsehood.

49317

What I need
To pray and meditate
Is an early rising morning-heart.

49318

We can become happy
Only by seeing
The good and divine qualities
Of each and every human being.

49319

Our gratitude-heart helps us,
Perfectly and convincingly,
To touch the Compassion-Feet
Of God.

49320

Just a smile
Makes our mind clear,
Our heart pure
And our world new.

49321

If God tells me that I am
His favourite,
Then I must believe it —
My disbelief will only increase
The distance between us.

49322

God keeps
His Protection-Light
All around the seeker’s life.

49323

I ascend
With my heart’s aspiration-flames.
God descends
With His Heart’s Compassion-Moon.

49324

We unburden
Our mind’s problems
With our heart’s mounting cries.

49325

In the aspiration-life,
We succeed
Only when we become
Extremely sincere and eager.

49326

Meditate, meditate and meditate —
Your heart-life is bound
To radiate.

49327

A desire-life can eclipse
Our heart-moon.

49328

The worries of our mind
Can be removed
Only by our heart’s
Ceaseless flow of tears.

49329

The mind does not care for
The heart’s progress,
But the heart is always eager to see
Even an iota of progress
In the mind.

49330

Our love of God
Has to be always
Pure and deep
So that God can come to us
Much faster.

49331

God’s Compassion rains down
Only when we do not care
For either success or progress.

49332

May my life become
A God-pleasing
Heart-violin.

49333

Of all the flowers,
My surrender to God’s Will
Is the most beautiful.

49334

Every day
I strengthen
My God-surrender-life.

49335

Each surrender-moment
Is extremely significant.

49336

I shall not allow
My God-attention
To be disturbed by any means.

49337

Our Inner Pilot is always eager
To help us run fast, very fast,
Towards our Destination.

49338

Only one thing satisfies me:
The dust of God’s Feet.

49339

If I can become a good citizen
Of the world,
Then God will make me
A chosen instrument
Of His Life.

49340

True, God’s Eye
Is kind to me,
But God’s Feet
Are infinitely kinder to me.

49341

I take God’s Will
As my only
Supreme Authority.

49342

I really want God
To stay a little longer
Each time He comes to visit me.

49343

There are many things difficult in life,
But they are not impossible
To overcome.

49344

Each one has the right
To become
A chosen child of God.

49345

Human life is full of opportunities —
Each opportunity can be manifested
Here on earth.

49346

Each time I obey God,
He comes closer and closer
To me.

49347

I have two real friends —
My surrender-heart
And
My gratitude-life.

49348

We must beg God
Every day
To come and play
With our heart.

49349

I clearly see
That my Lord has started curing
My mind-blindness.

49350

God does not want to hear
The clever excuses
Of my mind.

49351

The outer sun
Awakens me.
The inner sun
Illumines me.

49352

My life-tree every day grows
Under the very special care and attention
Of my Master.

49353

Only my Master knows
How I can receive more,
Infinitely more,
Light divine from Above.

49354

The outer journey ends —
The inner journey
Has neither beginning
Nor end.

49355

The heart-road
To the Absolute Supreme
Is by far the fastest.

49356

Every morning
My heart collects devotion-flowers
For my Lord Beloved Supreme.

49357

My morning meditation
Has to be as beautiful
And fragrant
As the morning rose.

49358

I must conquer
Each and every negative thought
So that I can make
The fastest progress.

49359

When the tears of our heart
Have intensity,
We make the fastest progress.

49360

Without a spark of Divinity
In the heart,
Life becomes
A meaningless zero.

49361

My desire-night
Has to be illumined
By my heart’s
Aspiration-flames.

49362

My heart’s cheerfulness
Cures most of
My mind’s problems.

49363

Every day
I pray to God to bless me
With new aspiration-flames
To transform my life.

49364

Without God’s Grace
No human being
Can turn inward.

49365

My Lord blesses my heart
With morning joy
And blesses my life
With evening peace.

49366

I cry and weep
For God’s Compassion and Affection
In abundant measure.

49367

Each time I smile at God,
He immediately increases
My aspiration.

49368

I need a heart
That is always hungry
For God’s infinite Love.

49369

My meditation is not for
My God-glorification.
My meditation is for
My Lord’s Satisfaction-Smile.

49370

My mind’s doubt
Divides me.
My heart’s faith
Unifies me.

49371

My heart wishes to be
A rainbow-song
For my Lord Supreme.

49372

Early in the morning —
The very first thing —
I look for my soul’s
Fragrance-heart.

49373

My Lord, please allow me —
Happily, cheerfully,
Unconditionally and eternally —
To be Your own, very own.

49374

My Lord, when You are with me,
I am so happy —
But when I feel You inside me,
I am infinitely happier.

49375

My Lord tells me
That I must give
Much more importance
To my concentration
Than to anything else.

49376

My God-surrender-life
Is bound to succeed.

49377

Anything that is good and divine
Comes from my heart’s
Silence-sea.

49378

World-renunciation is not for me.
World-acceptance,
And then world-transformation,
Is my Goal — my only Goal.

49379

God immediately returns
Our love-devotion-surrender-calls.

49380

The mind
Loves to tell
Gossip-stories.

49381

The heart
Loves to sing
God-songs.

49382

Ultimately,
Force surrenders
To love.

49383

God treasures
My gratitude-heart-tears.

49384

My Lord, I want to give You a gift.
Please tell me what You want.
“My child, I want only
Your mounting heart-cries.”

49385

The outer world
Needs
The beauty of harmony.

49386

The inner world
Needs
The fragrance of peace.

49387

To love God in His own Way,
We must go beyond desire-awards
And desire-rewards.

49388

My forward march
Shall be tireless
And endless.

49389

The mind is afraid
Of long strides.

49390

The heart enjoys long strides
In the spiritual life
All the time.

49391

God counts
Each and every
Gratitude-heartbeat
Of mine.

49392

Only fearless messengers
Of God
Can work for the betterment
Of the world.

49393

I have prayer-tears;
God has Fountain-Smiles.

49394

Each time I fulfil God
In His own Way,
God says to me:
“You will never be able to know
How dearly I treasure you.”

49395

Doubt and division
Are signs
Of inner insecurity.

49396

God will come down
As your Saviour —
You just go on loving Him
All the time.

49397

Do not try to fulfil the desires
Of each and every human being —
You are bound to fail.
Just fulfil God’s only Desire —
Your own perfection.

49398

God takes special pride in me
Only when I lengthen
The tears of my heart.

49399

Heaven’s ancient Eye
Was all gladness.

49400

Heaven’s modern Face
Is all sadness.

49401

When I please God
    In His own Way,
He always reserves
    A seat for me
    Right near Him.

49402

God has given me a heart
To please Him,
Lovingly and self-givingly.

49403

My Lord,
When I please You in Your own Way,
What happens?
“My child,
When you please Me in My own Way,
I immediately claim you
As My own, very own.”

49404

No sincere heart-throb
Will ever end in vain.

49405

My life’s failure-tree
My Lord has just
Uprooted.

49406

If you think you have pride
In enormous measure,
Then just start grinding it
To dust.

49407

We must pray to God for protection
All the time.
Only then will He make our lives
Invincible.

49408

We love
Our victory’s success-smiles.

49409

God loves
Our life’s progress-song.

49410

We all know
What contradictions are.
From now on,
We shall try to know
What reconciliation is.

49411

My Lord,
May my heart be made
Of aspiration-flames
And my life be made
Of devotion-nectar.

49412

What I desperately need
Is
A God-aspiring life.

49413

What I sleeplessly need
Is
A God-fulfilling heart.

49414

I make each thought of mine
Beautiful, more beautiful
And most beautiful.

49415

Half-believers
Can never please God
In His own Way.

49416

God’s Love
Is the only thing
That every part of me
Always needs.

49417

I live in between
My heart-cries
And my soul-smiles.

49418

Self-offering
Is the most beautiful prayer
In our spiritual life.

49419

No sincerity-depth,
No spirituality-height.

49420

God-satisfaction
Is my only occupation.

49421

God lives inside
My heart-cottage
And not inside
My mind’s imaginary palace.

49422

Devotion has to be pure —
Only then will God accept
Our devotion.

49423

Every seeker’s heart
Is a new God-pleasing
Song.

49424

Transform your loneliness
Into a oneness-fulness-life.

49425

When the aspiration
Of the heart
Shines on the face,
The seeker makes
The fastest progress.

49426

God says to me
That I must not be afraid
Of His Volcano-Eye.

49427

I always love
My Master’s
Compassion-descending eyes.

49428

Indomitable courage
Is all that we need
To conquer the hostile forces.

49429

We do not have to go
To a Himalayan cave to meditate —
Our sacred heart is the best place.

49430

My Golden Boat
Is all ready to carry me
To the Golden Shore.

49431

Like my soul,
At every moment I must circle
My Lord Beloved Supreme.

49432

I can cultivate happiness
Only when I sit
At my Master’s feet.

49433

With my inspiration,
I fly high above.
With my aspiration,
I dive deep within.

49434

God loves to play
All the time
With my devotion-heart.

49435

I cry for happiness.
God cries for my oneness —
Absolute oneness.

49436

Each heart has to be
A most beautiful
Purity-flower.

49437

The mind knows nothing,
Yet it pretends to be
A great teacher.

49438

The mind always likes to be
A great scholar.
The heart always likes to be
A bright student.

49439

Alas, I like to use so many ways
To please my Lord,
But my heart loves only one way —
The way of devotion.

49440

The mind is the problem,
And not the heart,
To fulfil God’s Will on earth.

49441

My heart has always
An eagerness-joy
To please God in His own Way.

49442

God every day tells me
That He wants me to be
His partner
And not His slave.

49443

I have full confidence
In my heart.
My heart has full confidence
In my Lord Beloved Supreme.

49444

The harder I strike
My heart-bell,
The sooner I hear
The Footsteps
Of my Lord Supreme.

49445

When I have
A purity-heart,
God Himself rings
My heart-bell.

49446

The heart
Is the light
Of the body.

49447

My Lord confides in my soul,
My soul confides in my heart,
And I confide in both my soul
And my heart.

49448

Too many things to do!
Alas, I do not know when to start
And how to start.

49449

God’s Love
Is my inspiration.

49450

My surrender
Is God’s inspiration.

49451

Each time I dive deep within,
I see my earth-existence
Flooded with sunshine.

49452

Remember who you are.
You are God’s chosen child —
Remember!

49453

My Lord,
I do not want my life to be
A forgotten story.

49454

Peace-loving is my heart.
I wish, like my heart,
For all nations to be
Peace-loving.

49455

Surrender
Is the final jump
Into the Unknowable.

49456

God’s Will-fulfilment
Is mankind’s ultimate
Longest distance run.

49457

I no longer wander
In the jungle of my mind.

49458

May my life become
A sweet river
With a golden boat.

49459

God’s Heart
Is the only place to hide
From God’s Eye.

49460

Not only for the winner,
But also for the loser,
God has equal Love.

49461

This morning
My Lord’s Heart gave me
The most surprisingly warm
Welcome.

49462

The path of the mind
Leads us
Nowhere.

49463

The path of the heart
Leads us
To the real Destination —
God.

49464

The heart —
And not the mind —
Must search
For the Truth.

49465

To believe in tomorrow
Is a sheer waste of time.

49466

Even one single
God-fulfilment-opportunity
I must not miss.

49467

When I do not please God
In His own Way,
The pangs of my heart
Who can ever imagine?

49468

I have only one freedom:
Immediate fulfilment
Of God’s Will.

49469

Our feet-dust darkens the world,
But God’s Feet-Dust
Not only brightens the world,
But also awakens the world
To a higher Light.

49470

God’s brightest Smile
Lives only
In the eternal Now.

49471

God’s Hour
Does not often
Repeat itself.

49472

Alas, when will I be blessed
By my Lord’s
Compassion-Rain?

49473

I shall not allow
My heart’s aspiration-candle
To flicker.

49474

God alone
Can console
My heart’s tearful prayers.

49475

How I wish
I can always remain
A faithful servant-child
Of God.

49476

When we empty ourselves,
God Himself fills us
With His own Divinity’s Light.

49477

I need God’s Eye
For God-Compassion.

49478

I need God’s Heart
For God-Satisfaction.

49479

I need God’s Feet
For my transformation.

49480

Truth is not to be found
In the noise
Of the world.

49481

Truth is found
Only in the voice
Of the heart.

49482

I always need
My life-saving
Inner poise.

49483

Be always
As happy as possible —
This is the only thing
That God wants from you.

49484

My Lord,
Do come back
To my aspiration-starvation-heart.

49485

My ego loves me,
But I do not love my ego.
I love only the Feet
Of my Lord Supreme.

49486

O my soul,
Where are you, where?
Do awaken
My earth-consciousness-body.

49487

My devotion-heart
And my Lord’s Satisfaction-Eye
Are always to be found together.

49488

I wake up in the morning
The moment I hear
My Lord’s sweet Flute-Melodies.

49489

My mind
Wants to discover
God’s Greatness.

49490

My heart
Wants to be cradled by
God’s Goodness.

49491

My soul
Sweetens my heart.

49492

My heart
Brightens my life.

49493

Every morning
I long for
A new aspiration-sunrise.

49494

The outer duties
Awaken us.

49495

The inner duties
Illumine us.

49496

My heart-flower
Charms God
Most devotedly.

49497

I am so happy
That I no longer live
In the confines
Of my mind-desert.

49498

The inner silence
Can easily devour
The outer noise.

49499

A life of hope is so precious —
And so constantly needed.

49500

My heart-lotus
Is the beauty
Of my soul.

49501

My heart-lotus
Is the fragrance
Of peace.

49502

There is only one truth —
God loves me.

49503

There is only one falsehood —
God does not need me.

49504

My heart-boat
Sails and sails
With new dreams.

49505

I need the aspiration
That will never be exhausted.

49506

I feast
On my hope-light.

49507

I have come into the world
Not to shake the world,
But to awaken the world.

49508

God is the Supreme Lover
Of my ever blossoming
Devotion-heart.

49509

The tree of life climbs up
To be nourished
By God’s Heart-Food.

49510

My eyes love
To approach God
With inspiration.

49511

My heart loves
To approach God
With devotion.

49512

Every morning
My soul, my heart and I fly
In Infinity’s Compassion-Sky.

49513

I open my heart completely
Only to my Lord’s
Golden Feet.

49514

My Lord has given me
A new name —
Unconditional surrender-expert.

49515

May my hope to realise God
Be fulfilled
Only at God’s choice Hour.

49516

God wants me
To blossom
Inside His sunlit Heart.

49517

My life-boat
Is sailing and sailing
Towards the Shore of Immortality.

49518

When I do not obey God
Lovingly, soulfully
And self-givingly,
God’s Feet thunder.

49519

Each heart-world
Is a very special creation
Of God.

49520

God’s Concern for humanity
Can never be fathomed
By the human mind.

49521

A negative mind
Is a very sharp sword.

49522

Expectation
Can be larger
Than the largest ocean.

49523

A day without
Morning meditation
Is a most unfortunate day.

49524

Only a self-giver
Is entitled to hoist
God’s Victory-Banner.

49525

The pure devotion
Of the heart
Shall always prevail.

49526

My aspiration
Is my life’s
Most solid foundation.

49527

My soul is not
A knowledge-flame
But a wisdom-sun.

49528

My Lord’s Protection-Umbrella
Shields me
From all dangers.

49529

Alas, why is it
That always my heart
Is empty
Of aspiration-flames?

49530

No aspiration-flame,
No satisfaction-God
In the seeker’s life.

49531

I unfurl
God’s Victory-Banner
At the God-given choice Hour.

49532

I am looking desperately
For the return
Of my aspiration-cries and tears.

49533

My aspiration-heart
And my dedication-life
Are treasured
By both Heaven’s Joy
And earth’s concern.

49534

God eagerly awaits
My heart’s Heavenly
And self-giving smiles.

49535

A meditation-heart
Means a life
Full of God-hunger.

49536

Every morning
I keep my heart pure
And my mind clear
Before I start the day.

49537

Each vision
Of my soul
Awakens me
To a brighter goal.

49538

The beauty
Of my aspiration-heart-garden
Can never be fully described.

49539

Every day
I try to transform
My desire-life
Into my aspiration-heart.

49540

Earth gives us
Earthly tears.

49541

Heaven gives us
Heavenly smiles.

49542

God allows my heart
To sit at His Feet,
But He does not allow my mind
To go near Him.

49543

Every day I go out
For joy
And come back home
For peace.

49544

Alas, we do not know
Why we came into the world,
What we are actually
Doing in the world,
And for Whom!

49545

I love God
Well enough to know
Whether He really cares for me
Or not.

49546

My Lord,
I shall never again
Miss seeing You
When You play
With the cosmic gods
And goddesses.

49547

When I do not please my Master
In his own way,
I am incomplete.

49548

When I please my Master
In his own way,
I am not only complete
But perfect.

49549

Self-offering
Is the beginning
Of liberation.

49550

I must learn
How to watch,
And then watch
How to learn.

49551

To my great joy,
I am once more fortunate
To place myself
At the Feet of my Lord Supreme.

49552

The mind and the vital
Quite often reach
An amicable agreement.

49553

My Lord,
I would love to meditate
Much better.
“My child,
First love Me more.”

49554

I am so glad
That my Lord and I
Are always on good terms.

49555

We do not do
The right thing
When we give up
In a difficult situation.

49556

The hostile forces
Never learn
How to take rest.

49557

When God talks,
We love to hear,
But then the story ends —
We do not love and serve
The world.

49558

Do not stop!
Do not stop at any rung
Of the spiritual ladder.

49559

Without Forgiveness from God,
We cannot enter into
A new battlefield of life.

49560

With God’s Compassion
I begin my day.

49561

With God’s Forgiveness
I end my day.

49562

Since I discovered God,
He has kept me
Under His Protection-Umbrella.

49563

So easy
To criticise the world;
So difficult
To offer even an iota of help.

49564

I must wrestle with my self-doubt
Every day
To bring about my divine victory.

49565

I must go back home
To bring my Lord’s Protection-Flower,
Before I start my journey.

49566

If you want to run
Towards God,
Never forget to run
The fastest.

49567

God wants me to serve mankind —
It is not how long that matters,
But how.

49568

Never allow timidity and fear
To enter into your life
If you want to succeed.

49569

Ignore your earthly failure
If you really want to offer
Your victory
To your Lord Supreme.

49570

Patience
Is first-class
Wisdom-light.

49571

Every time I speak ill
Of the world,
I give God
A headache.

49572

Spirituality does not want
Forced surrender —
Surrender has to be voluntary.

49573

Each new experience
Can be
A new and fulfilling adventure.

49574

Do not miss any opportunity
To please God always
In His own Way.

49575

I want to love God,
Plus I want to be
Not only loved by God,
But also devoured by God.

49576

God talks and talks
And talks
When He sees me all alone.

49577

Nothing is as important
As God-obedience
In the spiritual life.

49578

First, individual preparation —
And only then,
Collective preparation.

49579

God-obedience
Is much more than
Prayer and meditation.

49580

God wants me always to accept
All challenges
And conquer them.

49581

I am my surrender;
God is His Concern.

49582

God wants me
To sing His Songs completely,
And not just half-heartedly.

49583

Ignorance-night
Is afraid of seeing
My God-gratitude-heart.

49584

My progress-life
Is God’s
Sleepless Concern.

49585

I live in between
My gratitude-heart
And my surrender-life.

49586

God wants my eagerness
To examine my willingness
And readiness.

49587

God wants my readiness,
Willingness and eagerness
To run much faster.

49588

God is here and now —
And not from a distant place
Or a distant time.

49589

Sound
Knows no shore.

49590

Silence lives in the Shore,
With the Shore
And for the Shore.

49591

My Lord,
I give You an iota.
In return,
You give me Infinity.

49592

My Lord,
When will my life
Breathe Your Heart?

49593

The mind
Is
Entanglement-lover.

49594

The heart
Is
Enlightenment-dreamer.

49595

From each morning prayer,
I get a new and dynamic
Burst of energy.

49596

Every time I meditate,
I try to dive deep within
To reach my soul’s Fountain-Source.

49597

When faith and truth
Work together,
They create constant miracles.

49598

Self-sufficiency
Is the height of
Stark stupidity.

49599

Ignorance-pride
Cannot last long.

49600

The God-gratitude-tears
Of any heart
Are priceless.

49601

Alas, I know not
How I can escape
The desire-net.

49602

My mind,
Eternity is not going to wait
For your radical transformation.

49603

My heart always tells me
That there is nothing
That God does not know.

49604

Faith has to be used
All the time,
And not from time to time.

49605

Heaven is everywhere
When my heart is happy
From listening to my Master.

49606

To know my true self,
I must not live
In the self-doubting mind-jungle.

49607

Emptiness in the heart
Is nothing short of
Fulness of life.

49608

Alas,
The desire-bound human beings
Are not yet fed up
With ignorance-night!

49609

O power of the sun,
O beauty of the moon,
Do enter into
My aspiration-heart.

49610

Aspiration-height
And meditation-light
Always go together.

49611

My heart meditates
Only for one thing:
Peace, Infinity’s Peace.

49612

The Golden Shore is for those
Who want to soar for God
And who want to roar for God.

49613

Where is
The Golden Shore,
If not inside
My heart-sky?

49614

Our lives
Can be transformed
Only by actions divine.

49615

Eternal Time
Is the possessor
Of an ever-transforming life.

49616

My Lord, forgive me,
I am unable to control
    My doubting mind;
I am unable to control
    My restless vital;
I am unable to control
    My sleeping body;
But I am in full control
    Of my self-giving life.

49617

The human heart
Houses
The divine temple
And its shrine.

49618

Behold,
I have come out of
The age-old cave
Of my mind.

49619

The sweetness of the heart
And the newness of life
Are extremely fond of each other.

49620

My heart-citadel
Is empty of doubts.

49621

No ego can eclipse
The beauty and light
Of my soul.

49622

The inspiration-bird
Wakes up at the call
Of the seven colours
Of the morning rainbow.

49623

My Lord, please tell me
Where, when and how
I have misplaced
My heart-key.

49624

Each desire is a torturer
Of our aspiration-heart.

49625

Inspiration and aspiration
Turn inaction-lethargy
Into dynamic energy.

49626

A happy heart
Does not compete.

49627

The heart has
Inspiring talents
That the mind
Is not conscious of.

49628

For the heart to expand
Quickly and confidently
Is not a difficult task.

49629

God’s Protection-Feet
Are only for those
Who live sleeplessly
In the aspiration-world.

49630

O my heart,
Run the fastest —
The doubting mind
Is chasing you!

49631

Our love of God
Expedites
Our devotion-speed.

49632

Quite often
The mind discourages the heart
From living the life of spirituality.

49633

Hope is
Beauty’s touch.

49634

Promise is
Duty’s fragrance.

49635

Now that my inner light
Has come to the fore,
My darkness-mind
I see no more.

49636

When the heart loves,
It knows no limit.

49637

A God-dependence-life
Flies
In the heart-sky.

49638

Do what God always does:
Never stop working
For mankind.

49639

My heart loves
My sleepless God-service
More than anything else.

49640

Heart-singers
Are God’s true fulfillers.

49641

The heart loves the mind
And wants to help the mind
To accept the spiritual life,
But the mind does not want help.

49642

Heart-currency
Can never be faulty.

49643

I throw my whole heart
Into self-giving —
Therefore I am all happiness.

49644

Unless the heart is pure,
We do not understand
The perfect meaning
Of God’s Message-Light.

49645

Dive inward —
You are bound to see and possess
Infinity’s wealth.

49646

Our happiness
Cannot be measured
When we see
The Fountain-Source of life.

49647

Every day
A new-born dawn
Clasps my aspiration-heart.

49648

I do not want
To be lost in Infinity.
I wish Infinity to work
In and through my heart-breath.

49649

I want and need many things
    From God,
But God wants only one thing
    From me:
The total transformation
    Of my life.

49650

I bind God
With my self-giving life.

49651

When I walk
Towards God’s Heart,
God’s Feet
Show me the Way.

49652

Self-giving means
Immediately becoming
A king of joy.

49653

To love God only
Is never
An impossible task.

49654

Humility is found
Always
In the Heart of God.

49655

I begin my day
With my happiness-heart
And end my day
With my peace-mind.

49656

We must realise
That faith is infinitely stronger
Than doubt.

49657

My gratitude-heart-letter
My Lord
Immediately reads.

49658

Stop everything!
Just think of God’s
Beaming Smile.

49659

Life with God
Is Ecstasy’s flood.

49660

My body,
Give up your self-styled
Prison-life.

49661

Whenever my mind
Does something wrong,
My heart immediately
Takes the blame.

49662

Divine freedom
Has its own
Divine responsibilities.

49663

No seeker
Can ever afford
To displease God.

49664

I am totally lost
Between my inner world
Of peace
And my outer world
Of noise.

49665

When you make a promise
To God,
Your promise has to be
Very serious.

49666

Our God-unwillingness-mind
We shall never, never use.

49667

Poor God comes to me
Again and again.
Alas, where is
My receptivity-heart-room?

49668

I have rejected my outer world
Only to become
A perfect citizen of the inner world.

49669

God needs only
Eagerness-servers
To join
His Manifestation-projects.

49670

I long to become
Every day
A more perfect seeker.

49671

The heart’s way
Is always beautiful
And fragrant.

49672

The Master does not have to
Perform any miracle
Because he himself
Is the miracle of miracles!

49673

I clearly hear God’s Victory-Drum
Around the corner,
But alas, I am not ready
To receive Him.

49674

What is needed is sincerity,
And never austerity.

49675

To consult with oneself
And not with God
Is the height of our stupidity.

49676

Deep meditation
And real peace
Are to be found together
Always.

49677

Even an iota of self-discipline
Can brighten
My life.

49678

The heart’s way
Is always
Empty of pride.

49679

The mind wants
Explanations
And elaborations.

49680

The heart needs only
Unification with Mother Earth
And Father Heaven.

49681

When life-transformation takes place,
Not only the outer face
But also the personality
Completely changes for the better.

49682

God is God’s Forgiveness,
But my doubting mind
Fails to believe it.

49683

My Lord,
Every day
I shall make a fresh attempt
To be an absolutely obedient child
Of Yours.

49684

If I have clarity
In my mind,
Then I shall have security
In my heart.

49685

I may fail, again and again,
But my soul will not allow me
To give up.

49686

Now that I have had
The sweet experience
Of God-obedience,
I must always obey God.

49687

God never displeases
Those who offer
A sincere prayer.

49688

I must not allow
Fear
To visit my mind.

49689

I must not allow
Doubt
To weaken my heart.

49690

I must not allow
Jealousy
To come and attack me.

49691

I must not allow
Pride
To ignore the world.

49692

I must not allow
Impurity
To darken my mind.

49693

I must allow only the things
That God wants me to have,
For the betterment of the world.

49694

My Lord,
I want to be only
A gratitude-cry.

49695

My Lord,
I want to be only
A surrender-joy.

49696

My Lord,
I want to be
Your choicest child,
Not only in the inner world
But also in the outer world.

49697

We must never reject
Anything that our Master gives us
Blessingfully and self-givingly.

49698

Time is either
A very good friend
Or
A very big enemy.

49699

When my Master suffers,
I become insane
With sadness.

49700

I open my heart
Only to my Lord’s
Forgiveness-Feet.

49701

What separates me
From my Lord’s Heart?
What else, if not my pride!

49702

My Lord,
The moment I see Your Feet,
My heart gets an immediate thrill.

49703

My Lord,
Your Fire-Eye has burnt
My mind’s pride to ashes.

49704

My Lord, with You
Is my divine journey’s
Pride.

49705

My Lord, without You
My divine journey
Will never be able to start.

49706

Without courage
We can never succeed.

49707

All the seekers
Study
At God’s Heart-School.

49708

In the morning and evening,
I practise
Ancient aspiration.

49709

During the day,
I practise
Modern dedication.

49710

When I love God unconditionally,
He tells me to come and sit
Closest to Him.

49711

God smiles
At our tears
Most sincerely.

49712

Each heart
Has to be
A gratitude-flower.

49713

May my heart-river
Always flow
With gratitude.

49714

Determination
Has to be practised
Every day.

49715

No more
Outer encouragement,
No more.

49716

God is extremely pleased with us
When we use
Our heart-language.

49717

When I try to have God
All to myself,
I badly fail.

49718

God-adoration
Has to be kept alive
All the time.

49719

May my heartbeat
And God’s Heartbeat
Go together.

49720

Nothing can be sweeter, purer,
More illumining and more fulfilling
Than God’s Fondness
For His unconditionally self-giving seekers.

49721

Perfection-goal
Is extremely difficult
To reach.

49722

Our mind
Does not like the idea
That we have such love
For God.

49723

I cherish
My heart’s God-longing tears
More than anything else.

49724

A devotion-heart
Very speedily
Runs towards God.

49725

I want my inspiration
To reach
The length and breadth
Of the world.

49726

I want my aspiration
To reach
The highest peak.

49727

Heaven-departure-day
Gives us
Enormous joy.

49728

Earth-departure-day
Is quite often
Painful.

49729

God and I
Repeatedly share
Our heart-secrets.

49730

The more my heart-power
Increases,
The sooner I shall meet
With my God-Hour.

49731

The God-obedience-book
Is quite often
Missing.

49732

When we pray,
We tell God
To give us.

49733

When we meditate,
We tell God
To take us.

49734

It is not enough
To look at God —
We must claim Him
As our own.

49735

A God-driver
Has to be
Sleeplessly alert.

49736

Our outer existence
May be personal,
But our inner existence
Is universal.

49737

With our silence-heart
We must accept and surmount
All the obstacles on the way.

49738

Only our devotion-heart
Can soulfully walk
Side-by-side with God.

49739

How painful it is
To lose
God-contact!

49740

Frustration
Is the worst form
Of imperfection.

49741

When we dive deep within,
Only then can we discover
Our deepest self.

49742

Every moment
Of our lives
Must be
Self-giving.

49743

By offering an iota of love,
We receive from God
His Satisfaction-Flood.

49744

Surrender without reserve
Is the only way
To arrive
At God’s Heart-Door.

49745

The highest realisation
Is not just to see,
But to become.

49746

Concentration
Perfects our mind.

49747

Aspiration
Perfects our heart.

49748

Service
Perfects our life.

49749

The word ‘sacrifice’
Is not to be found
In the devotion-dictionary.

49750

My service
Means
My equal love for all.

49751

We must always remember
What is most important
In the spiritual life —
Our surrender to God’s Will.

49752

Desire-thorns
We know.

49753

Aspiration-roses
We have yet to appreciate.

49754

Seriously
We must practise
Detachment.

49755

God’s Love-Date
Never expires.

49756

Every day
We must aspire
To create
A beautiful world.

49757

May my heart
Every day offer
Sunshine-smiles
To the whole world.

49758

Each sincere tear
Brings God
Closer to us.

49759

When we are in the Presence
Of God,
We must give Him
Not only our good qualities,
But our bad qualities as well.

49760

God’s Joy knows no bounds
When a devotion-heart
Steals His Love.

49761

When the heart rules,
It is all
Joy.

49762

When the soul rules,
It is all
Peace.

49763

Meditation reveals
Our inner beauty
Most perfectly.

49764

Each soulful prayer
Is blessed unreservedly
By God.

49765

God is very clearly visible
Inside
Our heart-tears.

49766

Nothing
Is as useless
As my unworthiness-thought.

49767

Wake up,
My lethargy-body,
To the rising sun!

49768

The morning sunrise
Awakens us, energises us
And illumines us.

49769

A gratitude-heart
Is made of sweetness.

49770

God closes His Eyes
When I do things
Undivine.

49771

Silence
Is
My only strength.

49772

Silence
Is
My only joy.

49773

The aspiration-heart
Must remain
Always awake.

49774

God will not be satisfied
Until He is fully manifested
Here on earth.

49775

A garland of tears
I place at the Feet
Of my Lord Supreme,
Only to receive
A garland of Smiles.

49776

My soulfulness rises
The moment I think of God
Most lovingly.

49777

A new aspiration
Means
A new God-Experience-Blessing.

49778

Your heart-connection with God
Must always be
In good shape.

49779

My heart of happiness
And my life of sorrow
I place at the Feet
Of my Lord Supreme.

49780

We must always try to be
Far above
Life’s ups and downs.

49781

I am extremely fond
Of my heart’s
Song-bird.

49782

Hope is life’s
Forward drive.

49783

Whenever we do
Something good,
God immediately
Applauds.

49784

My heart-wings
I spread out
Everywhere.

49785

I celebrate
The anniversary
Of my aspiration-life.

49786

Deep meditation
Opens the heart-door
Sooner than at once.

49787

Many, many times
I have experienced
The Power
Of God’s Compassion-Eye.

49788

We must ignore
Many unimportant things
If we really want to make
Very fast progress.

49789

To deny God’s Compassion
Is to deny
My very life.

49790

The heart can be fed
Only by the soul’s
Wisdom-light.

49791

Meditation
Is the beginning
Of transformation.

49792

My Lord,
When will You return
To my poor, empty heart?

49793

The experiences
Of the heart
Are always true.

49794

The mind and its doubts
Must be rejected
Ruthlessly.

49795

The aspiration-heart
Is constantly needed
To keep God happy.

49796

Doubt forcefully
Wants to enter
Into the aspiration-heart.

49797

Each time I hear anything
From God,
It immediately gladdens
My heart.

49798

We have many questions
For God,
But God has only one question:
“My children,
When are you going to be perfect?”

49799

Sweetness
Is good,
But oneness
Is far better.

49800

Do not starve your happiness
By thinking ill
Of yourself.

49801

Since we have embarked
On the spiritual journey,
We must complete it.

49802

Nobody wants to have
A dusty mind,
But, alas, most of us do!

49803

Every day
I pray to God
To give me
A fountain-heart of love.

49804

I am in between
My desire-fight
And
My aspiration-flight.

49805

My victory-life
Comes from
My Lord’s Feet.

49806

My heart not only tries
To feel God’s Will
But also executes God’s Will
Immediately.

49807

I am determined
To conquer
My lower self
And strengthen
My higher self.

49808

I do not care
For my life-story —
I care only
For my heart-song.

49809

Devotion has to become
Sleepless
If you need God’s endless Love.

49810

Although we may try,
Nobody can thank God
Lovingly, soulfully,
Sleeplessly and unconditionally.

49811

The spiritual life
Becomes truly happy
When God becomes
Indispensable.

49812

Justice-Light reaches us
Only when
God’s Compassion-Height
We disregard.

49813

I need a heart
Which is at once
Playful and pure,
Like a child.

49814

Not because of my aspiration
But because of God’s Compassion,
I feel I am safe in my spiritual life.

49815

No human being
Can protect my life —
It is God’s Grace alone
That protects my life
All the time.

49816

If I really love God,
Then how can I be
Insecure?

49817

God asks me to decide
Immediately
Whether I am all for Him
And only for Him.

49818

The mind fools us,
Yet we are not very strict
With the mind.

49819

My obedience
Is very pleasing news
To God.

49820

My oneness-rainbow-heart
Pleases
Both God and man.

49821

I keep my aspiration-heart
Far away
From the desire-life.

49822

Life means
Self-giving and
God-becoming.

49823

Life has no meaning
Without
God-realisation.

49824

Life offers victory to God
Only after it has become
Unconditional.

49825

Desire-life
Is
Extremely painful.

49826

Aspiration-life
Is
Exceedingly beautiful.

49827

To see the face of Truth,
We must become
A heart of tears.

49828

We need God
Whenever we want to,
But God always needs us.

49829

I wake up in the morning
Imagining
The beauty of a rose.

49830

The morning gives me
A flood of joy.

49831

The evening gives me
A sea of peace.

49832

Those who believe
In only Sunday prayers
Cannot go far
In the spiritual life.

49833

God is ours
If we desperately
Need Him.

49834

Meditation is not
A challenge-thought
But a silence-thought.

49835

Those who believe
In delaying
Will sadly fail.

49836

Our gratitude-heart-tears
God treasures.

49837

To live in the world
We need
Infinite poise.

49838

Our tears and smiles
God examines
Before He accepts us
Into His Singing Group.

49839

When I am sad,
God gives me
His brightest Smile.

49840

When I am miserable,
God gives me
His loudest Laugh.

49841

Like God-realisation,
God-manifestation
Is also essential.

49842

We are hungry
For name and fame.

49843

God is hungry
For our peace of mind.

49844

World peace depends upon
Prayer and meditation
More than anything else.

49845

A single heart-prayer
Can perform
A miracle.

49846

A single heart-meditation
Can create
Boundless peace.

49847

My mind’s only goal
Is
Success-pride.

49848

My heart’s only goal
Is
Progress-delight.

49849

Right from this moment,
I shall take God
And my spiritual life
Most seriously, most seriously!

49850

The mind’s dry prayers
Cannot reach
God’s Ears.

49851

Without God’s
Constant Presence,
How can our hearts
Be completely happy?

49852

Instead of saying,
“God loves me personally,”
I must say,
“God loves us all equally.”

49853

My childlike heart
Runs faster than the fastest
Towards my heart-home.

49854

My priority
Is sleepless God-hunger.

49855

God gives
Tremendous importance
To my gratitude-heart-messages.

49856

God and the aspiring heart
Constantly appreciate
Each other.

49857

My heart’s innocent joy
Thrills
My Lord Supreme.

49858

Alas, the hostile forces
Are more vigilant
Than the divine forces.

49859

One thing I love:
To repeat God’s Name
All the time.

49860

Silence-prayers
And silence-meditations
Are most powerful.

49861

A sea of patience
Is needed
To make just a little progress
In the spiritual life.

49862

Sweeter
Than the sweetest —
My heart-prayers.

49863

Stronger
Than the strongest —
My heart-meditations.

49864

A seeker’s
Inner awakening
Is extremely charming.

49865

My life-boat
Is sailing
Towards my heart’s homeland.

49866

God’s Compassion-Eye
Has the fastest speed.

49867

God’s Justice-Hands
Are extremely slow.

49868

Every inspiration-wave
Has the power
To create a new world.

49869

Heaven whispers;
Earth shouts.

49870

Earth is for
Heaven-seekers
And world-lovers.

49871

The world makes progress
Along with my heart’s
Aspiration-progress.

49872

We need a mind
Empty
Of obscurity.

49873

We need a heart
Empty
Of fear.

49874

We need a life
Empty
Of discouragement.

49875

To love God
Is to go
One step forward.

49876

To devote oneself to God
Is to go
Two steps forward.

49877

To surrender to God’s Will,
Cheerfully and unconditionally,
Is to take
One hundred steps forward.

49878

With my aspiration,
I enter into
The higher worlds.

49879

With my dedication,
I enter into
The four corners of the globe.

49880

My Lord says to me
That if I really aspire,
I will definitely be flooded
With delight.

49881

Every path has obstacles,
But the seeker has to brave
All the obstacles.

49882

I must always be conscious —
God may come to me
Unannounced.

49883

Our success-life
Is so fleeting!

49884

Our progress-heart
Forever remains
Unlimited.

49885

Darkness and falsehood
Cannot prevail.

49886

Every day I must increase
My heart’s inner strength
To fulfil God’s Will.

49887

Whether I am a good seeker
Or a bad seeker,
One thing I know for sure:
My heart is all for
My Lord Beloved Supreme.

49888

An aspiration-heart
Finds no difficulty
In agreeing
With the rest of the world.

49889

Our heart’s fears and doubts
Are absolutely baseless.

49890

May my life
Be
A ceaseless prayer.

49891

May my heart
Be
A sleepless meditation.

49892

Never be fully satisfied
With what you have
And what you are.

49893

I value my hope-heart
Most sincerely
And most proudly.

49894

Ancient prayers
Make me
Divinely wise.

49895

Modern prayers
Make me
Divinely proud.

49896

The love of the heart
Surrenders only
To God’s Will
And to nothing else.

49897

The hunger of the heart
Grows into
The feast of life.

49898

Failure?
No, no!
God’s Victory on earth?
A million times ‘Yes’!

49899

My Lord,
If You are really kind to me,
Then bind my heart
And blind my eyes!

49900

Every day I pray to God
To make my heart
A better God-lover
And my life
A better God-server.
God says, “Amen.”

49901

God does not need me to be
A great champion in many fields.
He just wants me to be
His companion all the time.

49902

My heart is a bud
That every day blossoms
For God-worship.

49903

May my heart-tears
And my soul-smiles
Become inseparable.

49904

God wants me
To swim every day
In the sea of self-sacrifice.

49905

God tells me
That my sacred heart
Is His secret wealth.

49906

The inner freedom
Is
An ever-blossoming peace.

49907

What will mould my future life,
If not my happy acceptance
Of God’s Will?

49908

Compassion
Is the indomitable strength
Of the heart.

49909

Compassion
Is the gift of my heart
For the perfection
Of my life.

49910

I shall no more
Enjoy
Expectation-invitation.

49911

My love of God
Is my soul’s inner strength
And my life’s outer joy.

49912

The whispers
Of the inner world
Are beautifully shaping
My outer world.

49913

When our desire-life ends,
God sings and dances
Most charmingly.

49914

My life-boat sails
Between my inner hopes
And my outer promises.

49915

My heart
Loves to conquer
My mind’s
God-aspiration-resistance.

49916

I am leaving
The world of expectation-frustration
For good.

49917

I am kindling
The flame of aspiration
Deep within my heart.

49918

The voice of silence
Is the most important thing
In our outer life.

49919

Nothing must be excluded —
Everything has to be included
For world harmony.

49920

My words and my deeds
Are all for the fulfilment
Of my Lord’s Will.

49921

Spirituality is not only
The source of aspiration
But also the source
Of silence.

49922

I must conquer
My mind’s
God-resistance-pleasure.

49923

My life’s duty
Resides inside
My heart’s beauty.

49924

My heart
Is my only real life.

49925

My God-search
Has neither a beginning
Nor an end.

49926

My faith in my heart
Is God’s
Special representative.

49927

Every morning
And every evening
My heart desperately needs
The Blessing-Smile
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme.

49928

Sound-life
I love.

49929

Silence-heart
I need.

49930

Each seeker
Has to be proud
Of his journey’s start.

49931

Each seeker
Has to be proud
Of his journey’s end —
The Golden Shore.

49932

God’s inner Presence
Guides us and leads us
At every moment.

49933

This moment,
God hides from my eyes;
Next moment,
He walks ahead of me
And protects me.

49934

In everything,
The heart is much faster
Than the mind.

49935

Inactivity
God does not
Appreciate.

49936

Every morning
My only Friend, God,
Visits me.

49937

Practise meditation
If you want to have
Real satisfaction
In your life.

49938

God loves to live
In my heart-cottage
And not in my mind-palace.

49939

O my mind,
I cannot love you —
You always fool me!

49940

O my heart,
You always love me
And do the right thing
For me.

49941

My Lord,
I wish to be only one thing —
A sleepless devotion-heart.

49942

A God-worshipper
Has to be always a hero,
Inner and outer.

49943

Little by little,
Divinity blossoms
Within us.

49944

God is God’s
Compassion-Penetration-Eye.

49945

My false boss
Is my doubting mind.

49946

My real boss
Is my aspiring heart.

49947

The power of sincerity
Is beyond measure.

49948

My love of God
Has to increase
At every moment,
Without fail.

49949

Each heart
Has to be powerful
And self-giving.

49950

My self-transformation
Means God-satisfaction
In the purest way.

49951

My Lord is so kind to me!
He thinks of me much more
Than I can ever imagine.

49952

To delay
Is to invite
A life of failure.

49953

My Lord promises me
That my heart-sorrows
He will transform
Into my life-joys.

49954

God-service
Is my constant
Joy.

49955

My heart-songs
Lead me
To my Destination.

49956

I must take my spiritual life
Most seriously
Every day.

49957

I beg God
To give me intensity
When I pray to Him.

49958

I am at peace
Only when
My Lord’s Feet
Bind me.

49959

May my life
Be a ceaseless
God-love-stream.

49960

Only God’s Smile
Can melt
My aspiration-heart.

49961

Every day
God’s Love comes to me
With a new Breath.

49962

Every day
God teaches me
To fly in His Heart-Sky
In a very special way.

49963

My Lord asks me
Not to remain discouraged,
But to grow hope in my heart
At His Feet.

49964

At God’s Feet
My heart must blossom
Every day.

49965

At God’s Feet
I place all my heart-cries
And my soul-smiles.

49966

My heart is approaching
God’s Hour
Very speedily.

49967

Oneness grows
In the heart
And not
In the mind.

49968

God-connection
Has to be kept
Always safe.

49969

I shall never lose
The purpose
Of my God-love.

49970

I shall fulfil
My God-promise
Without fail.

49971

On tiptoe
God enters
Into my heart.

49972

God is the only Friend
That I can really
Depend on.

49973

My soul jumps with joy
When God enters into
My heart.

49974

Every day
I owe God
More than I can
Ever imagine.

49975

At the end of my life,
I pray to God
Only for one thing:
Peace, infinite peace.

49976

My Lord has forgiven me,
And I am determined
Not to make any more blunders
In my life.

49977

Not my mind-noise
But my heart-poise
Is my goal.

49978

The moment my eyes
See the moon,
My heart gets
An immediate thrill.

49979

Impatience
Is our enemy
Number one.

49980

My prayer saves me
From my mind-impurity.

49981

My heart saves me
From my mind-insecurity.

49982

My soul saves me
Constantly
From my wandering mind.

49983

Gratitude is the master key
To open up all earth-doors
And Heaven-doors.

49984

My Lord is always
His Affection-flooded Eye
For me.

49985

Every day
God comes into my heart
To examine the depth
Of my silence.

49986

God-love-devotion-singers
Swim all the time
In the sea of bliss.

49987

Today
God breathes a new promise
Into my heart.

49988

Surrender
Is the strongest bridge
Between man and God.

49989

You must complete
Your journey
To God’s Heaven-Kingdom
In this life.

49990

My Lord,
Do give me the capacity
To sing to the Melody
Of Your Heart.

49991

My God-gratitude-heart
Has won
God’s Smile-Prize.

49992

Because of
Your unconditional Compassion,
My Lord,
I can still live on earth.

49993

Life is an eternal journey
In search of
God’s Love.

49994

My heart is singing and flying,
Carrying the message
Of God’s Victory.

49995

God has brought me
His most precious Treasure —
His Heart.
I must not lose it!

49996

My heart longs for only one thing:
Peace, and peace, and peace —
Throughout the length and breadth
Of the world.

49997

Every human being
Will one day hold
God’s Victory-Banner.

49998

My invincible oneness
With God’s Will
Is the only thing
That I need.

49999

Only one thought I needed,
I need and I shall forever need:
“My Supreme is my All.”

50000

My heart’s gratitude-tears
Every day I place
At the Feet of my Lord Supreme.

My Supreme's absolute Command

In the small hours of this morning, my soul was in my transcendental consciousness and my heart was in my universal consciousness.

My Supreme, my Supreme, my Supreme stood in front of me and said to me, “No retirement, no retirement, no retirement for you, My child!”

I said to my Supreme, “What more do You want from me, what more?”

He said to me, “Seventy-seven thousand.”

Immediately I said to Him, “Is it Your Wish, is it Your Request, is it Your Will or is it Your absolute Command?”

He said, “It is My absolute Command.”

Then I said to Him, “I do not think I am going to live on earth that long.”

He said to me, “My child, I command you to start, I command you to start. You know and I know how long you are going to be on earth, but I want you to start. This is My absolute Command.”

“My Supreme, my Supreme, I shall obey Your Command, I shall.”

— Sri Chinmoy
24 January 1998

Editor's note

The poems in this final volume of Seventy-seven thousand Service-Trees were mostly written by Sri Chinmoy while he was visiting Malaysia, in January and February 2006, and Bulgaria and Thailand, in January and February 2007 — a few months before he left this world on 11 October 2007.

Sri Chinmoy embarked upon this marathon poetic odyssey on 24 January 1998 at 4:30 a.m., just three hours after completing his series Twenty-seven thousand Aspiration-Plants, which had taken him fourteen and a half years to write. By contrast, he wrote the fifty thousand poems completed of the Service-Trees series in just over nine years.

On the day he began that creative journey, while he was visiting Cancun, Mexico, with a group of his students, he recounted the experience in the previous chapter.
