Srce čoveka traga
Za krilima lepoteDa bi poput ptice moglo da leti
Prostranim nebeskim visinama. ```Ako proučavate svet
Vašeg srca,Bog će vas blagosloviti
Svitanjem Njegovog Života. ```Ako želite da budete
Savršeni Božiji instrument,Nikada ne precenjujte mudrost svog uma
I nikada ne podcenjujtePoslušnost svog srca.
```Pošto ste potpuno izgubljeni
U džungli nečistote,Negujete smelost
Koja negira postojanje BožijeBezuslovne Samilosti
U ovom svetu. ```Kada čovek predstavlja svoje sopstveno otkrovenje
A ne Božije,Šta jadni Bog može da učini?
On se jednostavno povlačiUnutar Njegovih tajnih i svetih Granica.
```Čistota je duševna lepota
Koja je odavno izgubljena i zaboravljenaU džungli zbunjenosti uma.
```Duhovi
Mog života neuspeha u prošlostiJoš uvek muče
Sićušnu, nežnu biljku moga srca. ```Ja ne želim da čujem reči
Sa tvojih usana žednih Boga.Ja želim da osetim
Tvoje srce gladno Boga. ```Oblaci odvojenosti
Između vas i BogaUskoro će nestati
Ako pažljivo provoditeVaše budne sate.
```Ne molite se Bogu
Da vas odnese sa ovoga sveta.Molite se Bogu
Da promeni vašu prirodu ovde na Zemlji.Ono što vam je potrebno je preobražaj
A ne bekstvo. ```Najveća tragedija je moj sopstveni život.
Iako sam Božiji odabrani sin,Ja namerno ne slušam
Božiji Glas. ```Zbog vašeg uma iskrenosti
Srca čistote i duše blistavosti,Nosi vas
Struja SamilostiBožije Reke Srca.
```Oh svete,
Moram ovo da ti kažem:Moje srce neće nikada
Ostati bez težnje,Moj um neće nikada
Ostati bez inspiracijeA moj život nikada neće
Ostati bez posvećenosti. ```Njegov plač ukrao je moje srce.
Njegov osmeh ukrao je moju dušu.Njegova ljubav ukrala mi je život.
Njegovo jedinstvo sa BogomUkralo je moje sve.
```Nada me nikad ne obmanjuje.
Nada je božanski instrumentKoji teži da dostigne i otkrije
Lepotu Božije manifestacije. ```Želim da budem jedan od retkih,
Veoma retkihKoji mogu iskreno da osećaju
Da je Bog odgovoranZa moj uspeh
I da sam ja odgovoran za Njegov. ```Vaše je božanski stvoreno
Cvetanje težnje,Prožeto mirisom
Božanske iskrenosti. ```Vera ne zna za napetost,
Jer ona zna da je BogUvek sa njom
I uvek za nju. ```Tokom mog jutrašnjeg razgovora sa Bogom
Rekao mi je da ne postoji krizaNi u jednom ljudskom životu
Koja se ne može rešitiBožanski osunčanim osmehom.
```Na putu kući
Sa Zemlje na Nebo,On je sa sobom poneo
Zemljino more nadeDa se igra sa ispunjujućim suncem Neba.
```Kada je moja duša na Nebu,
Ona šapuće molitvuZa samilost.
Kada je moja duša na zemlji,
Ona šapuće molitvuZa mir.
Kada je moja duša sa Bogom,
Ona šapuće molitvuZa zadovoljenje Boga.
```Osećamo takvu čistotu
Kada pogledam u Mesec.Osećam takvu moć
Kada pogledam u Sunce.Ali, na žalost osećam takvu nesigurnost
Kada pogledam sebe. ```Yours is a world
From which God is always absent,Do you know why?
Because you are always fond of wanderingIn your mind’s wasteland.
```God will definitely rescue you
From your anxiety-emergencyIf you do not waste
Your heart’s obedience-breath. ```In the heart of each struggle
There is alwaysA sun-vast victory-crown.
```Sadness-purity is my life’s
Fleeting voice.Gladness-divinity is my soul’s
Eternal voice. ```My Lord Supreme,
Do widen the narrow rivuletOf my life
So that I can forever surely flowInto Your Heart’s Ecstasy-Ocean.
```If your rebellious mind is unwilling
To admit defeat,Your heart is doomed to carry
The stupidity-freedom of your life. ```God’s ultimate Miracle
Shall secretly blossom:You will become the perfection-beauty
Of your own soul’sStupendous God-discovery.
```Responsibility cannot weigh you down
If you take responsibilityAs a God-approved opportunity.
It can only lift you and your lifeTo the higher worlds.
```His is the magic smile
That every day eclipsesMy heart’s excruciating pangs.
```Since Buddha did not come
For the East aloneAnd Christ did not come
For the West alone,You should know
That you have not comeFor yourself alone.
```You are always allowed
To come near GodAnd play with Him,
Not because you liveIn a great reality-world
But because you constantly cherishGod-dreams.
```God’s Compassion-Sun is not invisible;
My heart is just blind.God’s Forgiveness-Sky is not invisible;
My mind is just blind.God’s Assurance-Ocean is not invisible;
My eyes are just blind. ```The animal in me says,
“Why is there a GodWhen I do not need Him?”
The human in me says,
“Where is GodWhen I do need Him?”
The divine in me says,
“Whether I need God or not,He eternally is.”
```Alas, you have placed your happiness-life
Not only in the hands of othersBut also at their giant feet.
```If you do not have surrender-tears,
Then try to create them.If you do have surrender-tears,
Then soulfully treasure themAnd try to increase them.
```There should not be any weakness
In your thought-lifeOr any carelessness
In your heart-lifeIf you care for
The transcendental Smile of God. ```If you fear to aspire,
Do you not realiseThat you and your life
Will very soonExpire with fear?
```The difference between involvement
And commitment is this:If you are involved,
You are a problem-maker.If you are committed,
You are a problem-shooter. ```O my soul,
Did you ask GodWhen my suspicion-mind
Will be unquestionably defeatedBy my aspiration-heart?
O my soul,I hope you have not forgotten
This time also. ```The dust of the past
Has soiled his heart.Therefore, he cannot win admission
To God’s pure Heart-Home. ```To have your desires
Fulfilled for the askingIs to be forced to dance
With your life’s inner failures. ```Instead of creating self-styled fantasies
To decorate your life,Why do you not become a translator
Of God’s Vision-fulfilling Silence-Message? ```When I walk,
I walk prayerfullySo that I can have
A soulful heart,A powerful life
And a fruitful vision of God. ```My heart’s dawn has come,
My heart’s dawn has come.Inside my heart
I see only one thing:The happiness of a God-intoxicated
Beauty-life. ```O my body-dungeon,
Even you can be full of God.Just do not mix with the mind.
Do not even listen to the mind,For it is drunk
With egotism-night. ```Since your heart was awakened,
You have been praying and meditatingTo see divine light,
And this light itself wants you to seeThat there is another world
Where truth, peace and bliss abide. ```O my soul,
Each time you come downInto the world-arena,
You bring with you the promiseTo offer light to the world at large
And to manifest God in God’s own Way. ```Inwardly and outwardly
Your Beloved SupremeIs pleading with you
To listen to all His RequestsCheerfully and soulfully.
```If you do not make progress
In God’s own Way,Then what you call progress
Will be only the aggrandisementOf your ego.
If you make progressIn God’s own Way,
Then you are bound to feelGod’s Love, Peace and
SatisfactionInundating your life.
```The thunder of sound
Is God’s ambassador to earth.The beauty of silence
Is God’s ambassador to Heaven. ```My Lord Supreme,
Why do I feel insecure?“My child,
You feel insecureBecause you are afraid of vastness.
Try to claim the vastnessOf the ocean and the sky
As your own, very own.Then you will never be insecure.”
```My Lord Supreme,
How can I maintain my inner strength?“My child,
You can maintain your inner strengthOnly by having peace of mind.”
My Lord Supreme,
How can I have peace of mind?“My child,
To have peace of mindWhat you need
Is purity in the body, the vitalAnd the mind itself.”
```His prayerful mind and soulful heart
Have made his lifeA shadowless illumination-sun.
```The East is for realisation.
The West is for manifestation.The East cares mainly
For height.The West cares mainly
For length and breadth. ```Your mind does not want
God’s loving Heart.God’s Heart does not want
Your doubting mind.Unless and until you change your mind,
God is not going to change His Heart. ```God has revealed His infinite Light
Through your glowing eyes.Can you not reveal your soulful delight
Through God’s ever-fulfillingAnd ever-transcending Heart?
```Every day God and I
Exchange our dreams.I share with Him
My mind’s frustration-dreams;He shares with me
His Heart’s Satisfaction-Dreams. ```Because your heart has become
A God-pleasing prayer,Your life has now become
God’s secret and sacred powerhouse. ```If you live in the dark cave
Of blind individuality,How can you expect God
To grant you an interview? ```Indeed, he is a chosen instrument of God,
For his heart is aspiration-intensity,His life is dedication-luminosity
And his breath is perfection-divinity. ```Your desire-life will never desert you
Of its own accord.It is your aspiration-life
That has to discipline, illumineAnd liberate your desire-life
From its sleepless ignorance-hunger. ```Futile fears and doubts can never
Impose themselves upon him,For he lives in his heart-life,
And his heart-life is alwaysFlooded with God-Light.
```Every time he sails the boat
Of confidence-lightHe is befriended
By God’s Satisfaction-Delight. ```An unexpected Compassion-Touch
From AboveCan transform the absurd inventions
Of the intellectInto God’s all-satisfying
Intuition-Treasures. ```Your mind foolishly tries
To fathom God.Your heart soulfully waits
For God’s Compassion-LightAnd Forgiveness-Height
To measure your life. ```Your mind-conquest
Is yesterday’s forgotten resolution.Therefore, how can you conquer
Today’s desire-hunger? ```God does not need your mind’s
Partial insecurity-surrender.God needs only your heart’s
Inseparable oneness-hunger-delight. ```My aspiration-days and devotion-nights
Have successfully and permanently removedMy life’s ego-mask.
```Your soul has been hiding
For centuries.But rest assured,
It will not remain hidden forever.Someday, somewhere, somehow
It will revealIts God-manifesting perfection-delight.
```You do not want to remove
Your ego-mask,Yet you wonder why yours has become
An upside-down life-view. ```Your heart-compass does not
Always point to God.How then do you expect
Your life-star to ever riseIn Eternity’s Infinity-Sky?
```Your mind-land neither loves you
Nor needs you.Alas, even so, you are not willing
To go back to God’s Heart-Land. ```Alas, right now
You are your own vital-fury.Do you not realise that before long
You and nobody elseWill become your own heart-injury?
```Drago mi je da vam se sviđa
Prijatelj lepote vašeg srca:Život
Drago mi je da vam se sviđaPrijatelj upozorenja vašeg života:
Smrt. ```Napustili ste
Oltar svoga srca,Ali još uvek tragate za
Predsedavajućim božanstvom vašeg života. ```Preskočite ograničavajuće prepreke
I postanite smeli razbijač ropstva!Vaš život tada neće ostati
Opušten znak pitanja. ```Ljubav čini sva ljudska bića jednakima.
Jedinstvo čini sva ljudska bića savršenima.Zadovoljstvo čini sva ljudska bića
Potpuno istim sa Bogom. ```Pošto je Bog
Njegova sopstvena Svetlost Samilosti,Zar ne možete vi da postanete
Vaše sopstveno blaženstvo poslušnosti?```
Vaša kriza težnje uzbunila je
Ne samo Nebeske uspinjuće visineVeć takođe i dužine zemaljskih vapaja.
```Neobična je njegova interpretacija
Duhovnog buđenja.On misli da prvo čovek potresa Boga,
I da Bog onda razbuđuje čoveka. ```Bićete uhvaćeni u kandže vremena
Ako vaš život posvećenostiNe preraste u srce predanosti
Da bi zadovoljio Boga na Njegov sopstveni Način. ```Moja najbolja specijalnost je ova:
Nikada ne dopuštam svom životuDa bude uhvaćen
U mrežu zbunjenosti moga uma. ```Ako nastavite da umirujete
Urlike vašeg vitala,Kako ćete ikada ugledati
Svitanje vašeg života?Zar nećete zauvek ostati
U noći bez mesečine vaše smrti? ```Ako je vaša ljubav teče
Do posvećenostiA vaša posvećenost teče
Do predansoti,Bog će vam radosno i ponosno
Reći Kod Njegovog ImenaDa bi mogli da ga prizovate
Kad god poželite. ```O glupi svete,
Zašto bi moja duša bila odgovornaZa probijanje tvoje debele ljuske?
Moja duša je odgovornaSamo Svetlosti Božije Pravde.
```Svakoga dana ti se veoma trudiš
Da pronađeš svog anđela čuvara.Kažem ti,
Plamenovi težnje-posvećenosti-vereMogu lako da obave posao
Tvog anđela čuvara. ```Srce nesigurnosti
Čuje glasnu vikuU svakom slabašnom šapatu.
```Dok bolji san ne počne,
Njegovo srce će čeznutiSamo za jednim:
Božijim Samilosnim Osmehom. ```Tama će nastupiti
Bez ikakvog upozorenjaAko svakodnevno nema ljubavi
U rečniku vašeg života. ```Istina može da živi jedino sa ispravnim.
Laž može da živi jedino sa pogrešnim.Traži od svog uma i srca
Da načine svoj izbor. ```Njegova neugasiva žeđ
Za većom visinomPala je pod
Neizbežni prst smrti. ```Prošlo vreme nadanja
Je obećanje.Buduće vreme nadanja
Je posvećenost. ```Zbog tvog samozadovoljnog uma,
Sada si izgubljenU beživotnoj pustinji
Sa bezkonačnim nasleđemTuge.
```Da li mislite da Bog
Ne želi da se penzioniše?On želi da se penzioniše!
On je iznova i iznova tražioOd kosmičkih bogova
Da mu organizuju povlačenje u penzijuI svaki put kosmički bogovi
Moraju da odbiju.Ali, što im Bog više traži
Ovu posebnu uslugu,U njihovim srcima raste bol
Zbog neuspehaJer se ljudski život
Nije preobrazio. ```Ako ne odustaneš
Od besramnih trikovaTvog rastućeg ponosa,
Smrt će ubrzatiSvoju predstojeću posetu.
```Kada duševno postajete,
Šta postajete?Postajete Božiji suučesnik.
Kada bezrezervno dajete,
Kome dajete?Dajete Bogu.
```Ništa ne može da pomogne
I ništa neće pomoćiUpravljanju Božijeg Broda
Osim besanog daha vedrineVašeg života.
```Kada moj Gospod svira na flauti mog života,
On mi daje bezgraničnu sposobnostDa idem Njegovim kraljevskim Putem
Da bih dosegao Besmrtno KraljevstvoNjegovog Srca.
