Service, brings with it, the secret romance with God and an abundance of love for all that His divine hands touched to become life...

Silence gives one the strength to control one's passions and emotions, allowing him to experience the power of peace that supercedes any other kinds..

Need less, want none, hope ever, wish never, bring always, take nothing, hold on to the One and let go of the all!

The heart that is pure will awaken the Lord each time that he calls...

I assure you, My child, that there is God! How do I know? Your birth itself is its proof!

Each one wants to find the way to God, yet none attempt to ask Him, even once...

The chapter of patience My child, ends with the vision of God...

The duty of the Divine Mother is not simply to please Her child, but to keep it safe!

Indeed, misery is a blessing, for it takes whatever you desire!

Who are you to tell another of how to live hs life? Remember, one is born with the right to choose his own way home!

The reason for all misery and grief is that your mind is not directed towards Divine love...

The reason for all misery and
grief is that your mind is not
directed towards Divine love.

You will lead a blissful life
only when your mind is suffused with Divine love.

Body is not permanent. It is bound to perish one day or the other...

Body is not permanent.
It is bound to perish
one day or the other.

None can predict with
any degree of certainty
when one would leave one’s mortal coil.

This physical life is but a dream.
So, do not develop undue attachment to the body.
So long as you are alive, discharge your duties sincerely.

Suffuse your thoughts, words and
deeds with Divine feelings. Then you will verily become God.

The dualities of righteousness and unrighteousness, truth and falsehood, merit and sin co-exist in this creation of God.

The dualities of righteousness
and un-righteousness, truth and falsehood,
merit and sin, heat and cold, etc.,
co-exist in this creation of God.

People want un-righteousness to be
eradicated completely from this world.

They want only righteousness to exist,
but it is not possible.

In this world, righteousness cannot exist
without un-righteousness and vice-versa.

The world itself is a combination of both of them.
It cannot exist if one of them is absent.
Man should use his power of discrimination
and lead a life dedicated to righteousness.
There lies the secret of man's happiness.

The body that man bears is essentially a receptacle of God...

Why is man so pathetically afflicted
today with fear and anxiety? Are
we to search for the reasons outside us
or do they lie within us?

The reason lies in the false
emphasis we have laid on things of the
material world, ignoring matters of the spirit.

The body that man
bears is essentially a receptacle of God.

It is a temple where God is
installed, where God is the Master.

Hence, it does not behove you to
pander to its every whim. Instead,
realise it to be a very valuable
instrument in your journey to God.

Unlike joy or sadness, bliss is not the state of mind, it is the nature of life itself...

Repentance must be shown by reform, refrain the mind, restrain the senses, refill your hearts with purity and rely only on..

Faith is the inner strength that knows and believes the secret mystery of God as truth..

The poorest life to Me is the one that has, in his purposeful ignorance, sent God the other way, HIs way, My child, will surely meet with dead end...

Know that the Lord can effortlessly bring the whole world to your feet...

Do not take pride in the acquisition of bookish knowledge...

Do not take pride in the
acquisition of bookish knowledge.
Bookish knowledge only helps
in eking out a livelihood.
It will not confer total wisdom.

To realize and recognize the brilliance of the Lord's gifts, one's own eyes must shine, too, with His divine brilliance and luster...

The Lord knows, My child, as to when, where and how you will choose Him ultimately. From now, He waits..waits until you have

The pure child of God will not ever cry before Me, for his noble vision will see the pain...

Pain will touch only those, who themselves, volunteer to get hurt...

One will be respected and honored only when one possesses both education and culture...

The prestige of an individual
does not depend on education alone.
Along with education, culture is also very essential.

One will be respected and honored
only when one possesses both education and culture.

Worldly education is negative, spiritual education is positive...

No doubt, secular education is essential.
But along with secular education,
one should have moral and spiritual education too.

One without moral and spiritual
education will never attain peace.

Worldly education is negative
and spiritual education is positive.

Just as positive and negative
are essential for the electric current to flow,
both worldly education and spiritual education
are needed for progress in life.

Man should bring out the sacred qualities latent in his heart and put them into practice...

The word 'education' is derived
from the root word 'Educare'.

Education refers to acquiring
information from outside,
while 'Educare' means to bring out
or to elicit that which is inside.

Man should bring out the sacred
qualities latent in his heart and put them into practice.

The worldly education that you pursue
and the jobs that you undertake are related to the head.

They are subject to change.
But the human values like compassion,
forbearance, Truth,, which originate from the heart are changeless.

Instead of worrying all the time about filling your stomach, fill your mind with pure and sacred thoughts...

With whatever education you get,
is it not possible to sustain yourself?

God has given you two hands and one stomach.
Are two hands not sufficient to fill one stomach?

Are you born as a human being just to fill the stomach?
Don't you find the birds and beasts also doing the same?

Instead of worrying all the time about
filling your stomach, fill your mind with pure and sacred thoughts.

Cast the pebble of good thoughts in the lake of your heart...

First of all, one should develop right vision.
If the vision is good and pure, the thoughts will also be pure.

If you throw a pebble in a lake,
it will create ripples.

How far will the ripples spread?
They will go up to the edge of the lake.

In the same way, cast the pebble of
good thoughts in the lake of your heart.

The ripples of good thoughts will then
express themselves through all parts of your body,
viz., eyes, ears, hands, legs, etc.

When these ripples of good thoughts
go to the eyes, you will see only good,
when they go to the ears, you will hear only good,
when they go to the tongue, you will speak only good,
when they go to the legs, the legs will go only to good places.

Thus, the lake of the human body
becomes full of ripples of pure thoughts,
purifying the body from top to toe.

Mere study of books is not enough...

Mere study of books is not enough.
You feel elevated for the time being
while studying sacred books.

The sublime teachings of great men
must be put in practice.

As fragrance is released when
you go on grinding the sandal wood,
these teachings leave a lasting effect
on your mind by repeated study and practice.

Time is precious, never waste it... Time is God, dont waste it...

God has given so much time to man.
But man wastes it. Time is God.
Don't waste time. Time waste is life waste.

Man wastes 3/4th of his time in mundane activities.
He spends the remaining spare time in idle pursuits like
watching TV and other petty amusements.

Why does he not sanctify his time by
engaging himself in good deeds and righteous activities?

It is a grievous error to think that it is natural for a human being to err...

Many feel that it is human to err
and that God should forgive their lapses.

In fact, if they were truly human,
they should not commit mistakes at all.

Even if sometimes a mistake is committed,
willingly or unwillingly, it should not be repeated.

It is a grievous error to think
that it is natural for a human being to err.

To follow the directives of the
senses is the mark of an animal.

To be guided by the Self
is the sign of a human being.

None should attempt to justify his
or her weaknesses and lapses as natural to a human being.

They should be regarded as signs of mental debility.
When you have truly acquired sense-control,
you will experience the power of the Divine in you.

If only you had held on to your goodness, nothing would have degraded you...

Many people assert that they were
very good in the beginning but bad company spoiled them.

This is not true.
Do not plead that you have become bad
due to the influence of others.

If only you had held on to your goodness,
nothing would have degraded you.

Hence it is imperative that man
should make earnest efforts to remain steadfast in his goodness.

You did not come to this world with a part of love, but a part of Me has come fully as love!

Hypocrites and wicked people can never find God..

Strange is the nature of modern man today.
He thinks something and speaks something else.

He laughs outwardly to
conceal his inner wickedness.
He appears to be weeping outwardly
but inside he really laughs.

His outward appearance is that
of human being but his mind is that of monkey.

Such hypocrites and wicked people can never find God.
God expects that human beings should live like human beings
devoid of such animal qualities.

Stop all worrying, the moment worry rests, all the responses to all your troubling fears will awaken!

Do not look for room continuously in another's heart. Realize My sweet, that in another's home, you can stay only as a 'guest'

One can break all barriers by allowing the attack of evil to pass him, without him being touched!

To a simple man, love comes very easily, for his thoughts contain the truth, his speech carries his inner will and his every act offers the softness..

You guide your life with the light of your own actions, then tell Me, how can life be unfair?

Divine inspiration is the expression of simple, spontaneous love..

Every life brings with it its own direction. Thus, watching another's life gives your life no purpose!

Most live their lives, worrying of another's mental state. Little do they know, that slowly, they are losing the stability of their very own!

Do not, My child, attempt to gauge the powers of the Lord. Let Him, My child, show you the extent of His unlimited strength...

Any learning is simply the preparation to be able to confront as unknown experience, without any fear!

Innocence is the eye that sees another as the image of his own inner purity!

Worldly wealth is simply the dirt that stains the health of a stable mind!

Do not waste time in measuring your every fall - only then, My child, will you climb the ladder of purity...

It is wrong to find faults with others...

It is wrong to find faults with others.
There may be faults in them.

But do not see their faults,
see their good qualities.

Then the entire universe becomes one family.
This is the spirit of the brotherhood of man and fatherhood of God.

Whatever the crisis, however deep the misery, do not allow your grip over the mind to get loose...

Whatever the crisis,
however deep the misery,
do not allow your grip over the mind to get loose.

Tighten it further,
fixing your eyes on the higher values.

Do not allow the mind
to stray away from the tabernacle of the heart.
Make it bow before the Self within.

If money is lost, it can be earned again...but if health is lost...

If money is lost, it can be earned again.
If health is lost, it may be possible to regain it.
But if time is lost, it can never be regained.
So, man should utilize the time at his disposal in the right manner.
