Love will only be found when you will make the effort to break each barrier...

Love will only be found, 
when you will make the effort 
to break each barrier, when you 
will have the courage to confront 
and rise above every insecurity, 
when you will believe that your 
love of today is only a tyrant's weapon of control, 
and when you will realize that your priority lies
in pleasing the self and no other. 

Yes! Only then, will every door of life open, 
and lead you through this maze to the treasure of love. 
When love will become your best friend, its loyalty will 
shine by fighting and winning over all your enemies 
that had once made you falsely believe of love being a weakness - 
know that the strength of love battles - without any pain, 
with no blood, with no armor, nor weapon, 
with no strategies or manipulations - it fights 
and conquers the enemy's own needs and
weakness - that is - its need to be loved!

A love that lacks appreciation will only doubt and compete in the constant fear of its own insecurities...

The simplicity of true love
once experienced, will only 
make you shudder to live a love 
that deceives, fears, and expects. 

Know that true love can never hurt, 
for love is born to give without any limitations. 

Realize that when you hurt, 
it is only your pain of selfishness 
that limits you to ignore your own 
uncontrolled pangs of anger and resentment. 

The love of God can never resent, 
for His love is not a mere tool to fulfill 
His own needs, but is a healing cure 
that will fulfill and complete you, My dears, forever. 

A love that lacks appreciation, 
will only doubt and compete in the 
constant fear of its own insecurities. 

When one is not able to love, 
then he will react with the envious 
rejection of another's love, only to 
falsely protect his failing heart. 

Divine love, O sweet, hungers 
and feeds to encourage the strength 
of love in another, for any victory 
becomes his very own and know t
hat the love that races with another 
is the love that fails. 

You cannot acquire love as 
long as you will burn in the 
flames of jealousy - it is only, 
My dears, when these flames 
are extinguished by true acceptance, 
only then will true love be experienced 
and will heal the past wounds that inflicted pain.

The only THING that you will carry across the borders of life and beyond the power of death is LOVE..

Live, today, by the faith that God loves you - 
no matter what, and let this faith blossom, one day,
to a beautiful love that you recognize as the only one 
that is really true.

Yes! The only love that you will carry 
across the borders of life and beyond the
power of death. 

Make God's love, not your doubts, 
but instead, use the strength of God's love and erase the fears, forever. 

This is the perfect love, My dears, 
that is beyond even the power of your 
imaginations and much above a weak mind's ability 
of comprehension. 

How can you understand a love that needs none, 
expects nothing, blames never, heals ever, knows no failing, 
inseparable, at all times, and waits for you unconditionally? 

Such love is only a fairy tale to you - and to God, 
it is the only truth of reality. We are poles apart - 
yet remain attracted to each other, for the only 
reason God lives, today, is for you, and the reason 
for your birth is to realize that God's life is for you and your life is God's.

The heart should be filled with compassion, only then can it be called a temple of God.

A poet may compose grand verses 
in praise of God and also pray for his protection. 

The feeling is important and not the manner 
in which the verses are composed. 

One may extol God according to one's own 
capacity but one should do so with pure, steady 
and sacred feelings. 

One may be doing chorus, 
offering worship and undertaking service 
activities for a number of years. 

But all this will prove futile if there 
is no transformation of the heart. 

The heart should be filled with compassion. 
Only then can it be called a temple of God
Otherwise, it becomes verily a devil's den.

First let us be Gods. and then help others to be Gods...


First, let us be Gods, and then help others to be Gods. 
"Be and make." Let this be our motto. Say not man is a sinner. 
Tell him that he is a God. Even if there were a devil, 
it would be our duty to remember God always and not the devil.

Yes, life in all its sorrows and happiness is still beautiful and precious...


 
As the Girl jumped from the 8th floor

On the 7th Floor:
She saw the Loving couple fighting with each other

On the 6th Floor:
She saw the usually tough strong Peter is crying

On the 5th Floor:
She saw Dan is taking her daily anti-depression medicine

On the 4th Floor:
She saw that jobless Heng still buys 7 Newspapers to seach for a job

On the 3rd Floor:
Rose again fighting with her boyfriend

On the 2nd Floor:
The old man again hoping someone would come by and pay him a visit

On the 1st Floor:
Lilly still staring at the picture of her lost husband.

The Girl: Before i jumped from the building i thought that I was the most unlucky person. But now i realize that everyone has their own problems and worries. After i saw out all these i found out, infact i wasn't that bad at all.

Yes. Life in all its sorrows and happiness is still beautiful and precious....

Do make the best of it.......... Only Cheers....n. ...smiles are counted.

So u better be prepared to smile at whoever u come across

Do not worry and feel sad about when we may have to depart from the earthly plane...

Look at the blossoms in the garden. 
When the gardener plucks the flowers, 
the buds exult that tomorrow is their turn 
to be gathered into his hands, and their faces
are so full of joy when they unfold in that hope. 

Do they feel any sadness? 
Do their faces droop? Are they any less bright? 
No. The moment they know that the next day it is their turn, 
they make themselves ready with great gusto and excitement. 

So also, one must be ready on the path of spiritual practice, 
enthusiastically remembering the Name of the Lord, 
without worrying and feeling sad about when we may 
have to depart from the earthly plane.

We have to fly, we have to teach our loved ones to fly...

We have to fly…we have to teach our loved ones to fly. Yes, it is okay to build a nest…it is okay to nurture the loved ones in it…it is okay to serve them with their needs. But then always remember a nest is only a temporary place of rest.

One dawn will come when the loved ones with your true love will learn to fly…they will rise…they will explore…they will experience…they will build…and you at that time must break that nest for them to forget your services. They must carry truth in their hearts…that is the true you. They will make their way…and you shall return to yet a greater task…to love those that never had the nest yet.

The wise one always knows when the task begins…and when it has to be set free!

We have to give up our desires, we have to be energized by hard work, we have to let go of past attachments, we have to!

Yes, we have to save those that we have loved. 
But how? Not by selfish motives and superficial sincerity.

No! No! We have to save them by freeing them into the truth. 

Truth is the only relation that connects us and
to experience this truth we have to love love itself madly.

We have to teach each other truthful ways…
we have sometimes to separate to love each other more. 

We have to give up our desires…
we have to be energized by hard work…
we have to let go of past attachments…we have to!

Our love toward each other has to change....

Our love toward each other has to change. 
It has to move in the direction of making one free 
rather than making one bound to our expectations. 

We have to wake up and realize that 
in God’s task there is nothing to measure…
no steps to climb…no one to please artificially… 
and no reimbursement for effort other than self-fulfillment.

We also understand that to love all equally is simply 'impossible'

We also understand that to love 
all equally is simply “impossible”. 

Why is that? We often deduce
that the amount of love and services 
may not be desirable and favorable
for us and hence it is simply not worth the effort to love.

The wise always believe in 'love all and be free', yet we find it difficult to adopt this concept in our everyday life...

The wise always believe in “love all and be free”. 
Yet we find it difficult to adopt this concept in our everyday life. 

Most of us remain happy in loving only a chosen few. 
Little do we realize the hidden truth within that lies within that love.
We serve the desires of those that are close to us.

They in return appreciate our efforts and return us 
with the same service i.e. they make an effort to 
give us what we expect from them. 

This give and take of services,
companionship and sharing of equal welfare
for each other becomes an attachment or 
dependence that we call “love”. 

We seldom realize that we 
cut the wings of freedom of those
that enjoy the most closeness with us. 

We wish not to separate from them
for we get attached to our efforts of 
loving them and also of the result i.e. to be loved in return.

Start to reflect your purity by not denying your present state of impurity...

Start to reflect your purity by not denying 
your present state of impurity. 

Live to be aware - 
aware of your own several faces 
that convince you of your false purity. 

Live, my dears, to be aware -
aware that you must find the one face of truth, 
only the one face of all - in each self! 

Existence must be in constant 
awareness of the self, and it is the truth of awareness 
that will allow you to climb the quick steps to purity.

Healing the wounds of others will only close each wound of yours forever and yoru self-pity will turn into universal compassion....

Make service your path to meeting with purity. 
Serve in silence, there must be no pomp or showiness involved. 

Service must humble you and fill you with love 
and compassion by revealing to you that you are 
surrounded by sufferings and that each one's pain
is the same pain that makes your own heart bleed. 

The difference lies only outward, 
but each one lives in the same delusion 
and ignorance in which you have found your own self in. 

With your love and kindness, 
develop true knowledge that the pain, 
too, lies only outward and that the true self 
will only experience bliss under all circumstances 
and under any roof of suffering. 

Healing the wounds of others will only 
close each wound of yours, forever, and your 
self-pity will turn into universal compassion. 

Your worries will seem smaller, My dears, 
when you will serve the worries of the world!

Once you have experienced momentary peace, the 3rd chapter in purity must continue its battle within, so that God found must not be lost, ever again!

Once you have experienced momentary peace, 
the third chapter in purity must continue its battle within, 
so that the God found must not be lost, ever again. 

Know that anger, jealousy, pride, hatred, envy,
will continue to knock upon the closed doors
remain deafened, and let the truth that you have 
experienced stare eye to eye until the fear of their 
deceit will make them flee, only to return for another attempt. 

To stay pure, you must not fail in keeping 
the Lord enclosed in your home, at all times.

The second chapter in this process of purification lies in being ever content, at all times, in total acceptance of God's divine will...

The second chapter in this process of purification
lies in being ever content, at all times, in total acceptance 
of God's divine will. 

Purity will not come with sacrifice that 
immediately expects its rewards and becomes unrestful, 
as the response of God seems silent. 

Know for certain, that one day, 
God will respond, but until then, 
your determination must not weaken 
with another's comparison in the spiritual path.

The lesson of purification will begin its teaching... when you will accept and open its book to the first chapter of 'sacrifice'..

The lesson of purification will begin its teaching,
when you will accept and open its book to the first chapter of "Sacrifice". 

A lot must be given away - and given up, 
before even the image of purity will begin to appear before you. 

The doors to anger must close completely, the fire of jealousy
must be exhausted forever, the mask of false pride must peel away, 
and with every such impurity that is offered to God, you, My dears, 
will begin to experience your first taste of the nectar of purity.

It is only when you are able to 'recognize' your own impurities, 
will you be able to offshoot them and attain purity. 

To understand the glory of the sunlight, you must 
first experience the light, only then, will you welcome
the brilliance of day light. 

The spirit of sacrifice is nothing but 
extracting your very own poisons - Yes! 
You must be the snake charmer that allows 
each poisonous snake within you to dance 
to the tune of divine music - 

the music of divine virtues, strong character, 
and unshakable faith in your ability to become God.

All that exists, all that lives, must find its own awareness, the bliss of the self...

All that exists, all that lives, 
must find its own awareness - 
the bliss of the self. 

Your lives have become only the existence, 
without the awareness of the truth, and where 
the truth remains blind folded, existence becomes 
only a suffering - 

Yes! The suffering of tangible attachments 
that makes the illusion of fears a dreadful reality. 
Awareness will only come when the existence 
begins to search its true purpose and finds 
unfulfillment in every step he takes in his everyday routine.

Post 1991... The process of purification will take several washings, washings in your repentance, your efforts, your determination to accept sorrows and sufferings...

The clothes that acquire a stain 
have to be washed several times 
before the stain begins its process to lighten, 
and with each wash, the stain takes its leave - l
eaving only lesser behind, until one day, 
the clothes show complete disappearance of the stain. 

Similarly, the process of your purification 
will take several washings - washings in your repentance, 
your efforts, your determination to accept sorrows and sufferings, 
and your simple vow of ending all past deeds by the renunciation of 
all desires, by overcoming every weakness of the mind, 
by remaining unaffected with the temptful senses and 
by surrendering to the will of the Lord and accepting His will as your command.

Each one, falsely thinks that he is living his life, but has he truly lived its promise?

The body is inert and perishable...

The body is inert and perishable. 
Then, why should you have attachment to it? 
The body is necessary to perform your duties. 
You have to utilize it as an instrument.
But do not identify yourself with this instrument.
If you do so, it will affect your power to identify yourself with the self

The human body is a world in itself.. the body is the tree, love of the self is the root...


The human body is a world in itself. The body is a tree. Love of the
Self is the root. Desires are the branches it sends forth.
Qualities, attributes and modes of behavior that are based on the
basic nature are the flowers from the tree. Joy and grief are the
fruits thereof. Blood flows through and animates every part of the
body. So too, Divinity is flowing in and through and activating
every spot in the world.

Never use foul words against another, such words should never defile your tongue...

 
Never use foul words against another. 
Such words should never defile your tongue. 

Remember that there is God inside your heart, 
as well as in the hearts of everyone around you. 

He sees and hears everything. 
When you use harsh, angry and foul words against another, 
the God in you and the God in the other person is hurt. 

The tongue is a tool with which you 
can harm yourself and others too. 

So, be very careful; use it only for 
your good and for the good of others. 
The best way to use it is by speaking kind words, 
repeating the Name of God and singing His Glory.

Do not live merely hoping to change, but live the hope and change...

Do not live, merely, hoping to change, 
but live the hope and change!
 
In each hope, lies the shadow of faith -
breathe that faith, and the faith of pureness 
will cross the path of God. T
 
he way you live, today, cannot continue, 
for the day will come, when you are bound to face the poverty - 
the poverty of an empty heart that hungers for true love and 
resents its state of never ending greed.


The human body is the greatest body in the universe and a human being the greatest being...

The human body is the greatest body 
in the universe and a human being the greatest being. 

Man is higher than all animals, 
than all angels; none is greater than man. 

Even the Devas (gods) will have
to come down again and attain 
to perfection through a human body. 

Man alone attains to perfection, 
not even the Devas. According to the Jews 
and Mohammedans, God created man after 
creating the angels and everything else, 
and after creating man He asked the angels 
to come and salute him, and all did so except Iblis
so God cursed him and he became Satan. 

Behind the allegory is the great truth that 
this human birth is the greatest birth we can have.

This very moment is the moment!

People tend to delay doing their duties. 
But for undertaking spiritual practices
there is no yesterday and no tomorrow. 

This very moment is the moment. 

If you have engraved this 
understanding in your heart, 
then you can merge in our Lord.

If this truth is not assimilated, 
and you get immersed in aims 
of today and tomorrow, and it 
lays the foundation for worldly attachment! 

Then you will be born again 
and again to have to face the God of Death! 

Those who realize this truth 
will not fail even to the slightest 
extent in their spiritual practices. 

It is the right of every aspirant 
to have the vision of the Lord of Auspiciousness .

You wear colored glasses and see everything through those glasses... correct your vison, the world will get corrected...

You wear colored glasses and see 
everything through those glasses. 
Correct your vision; the world will get corrected. 

Reform yourselves; the world will get reformed.
You create the world of your choice. You see many,
because you seek the many, not the One. 

Try to subsume the many in the One; 
the physical bodies of yourself and others,
the family, the village, the community, the state,
the nation, the world, thus progressively march on
towards more and more inclusive loyalties and
reach the stage of Unity, in thought, word and deed. 

This is love, for, love is expansion, inclusion, mutualisation. 
The individual has to be Universalized, 
expanded into Cosmic Form.

Everything is held together by God's strength...

Let us take a cycle or a car tyre.  
If a small pin is pierced in that tyre, 
all the air inside it will be released.  

While all the air that is in the tyre 
goes out under such conditions, 
your body, which has nine big holes
in it can always hold life in it without leaking out. 

Everything is held together by God's strength. 
God is present everywhere. You are only a means
through which God is seeing everyone in this world. 

You are imagining that you are seeing 
with your eyes, but you are, in fact, seeing with God's eyes.  
This world is full of God and everything that you see is God.  

Love God with steadfast devotion and faith...

Love God with steadfast devotion and faith, 
have fear of sin and practise morality in society. 
If you want morality in society,
you should develop love for God.

If you love God, you will have fear of sin. 
Today people without fear of sin commit heinous acts. 
This contradicts the very nature of humans. 

The body is a house given to you on rent. 
The owner is God. Live there as long as He wills, 
thanking Him and paying Him the rent of faith and devotion.

The higher one's inner state of purity, the greater the lengths one will walk to accomplish his mission of peace...

Sometimes, in simply listening to another's pain, one gives the other the peace to seek the light of his own inner guidance...

Self control is the limitless boundary that contains within it.. your every freedom...

Pray to God that those that you think you love are happy... those that you think, love you, are happy...

The simple love for purity will equip one with the strong will....

Each one pays his price to be free, the price of complete detachment...

Always remember, the strength to give comes from God, the gift, itself, is His, the receiver is He, Himself...

Those that cannot see the greatness in the good, have many of their own petty fears to conquer...

Inspiration is one's full awareness to self-awakening...

The divine principle within us is always accessible and always responsive...

When an individual seeks 
fulfillment outside himself, he fails; if he
seeks it within himself, he is successful in obtaining it. 

The divine principle within us is always
accessible and always responsive. Pain
is felt only as long as attachment or 
aversion to outer forms remains. 

Ultimate relief from pain can 
come only by the effacement of
the ego, by the elimination of that 
which reacts to one thing as pain
and to another as pleasure, and
whose memory and conditioning
sustains the recognition of the dualities of joy and grief.

The body is like a water bubbles, the mind is like a mad monkey....

What do you think of the purpose 
for which this body is gifted to you by God? 
 
It is only to make you realize your own Self. 
But you forget this purpose and concentrate 
your mind on the physical body. After all, 
what is there in the physical body?
 
The body is like a water bubble. 
The mind is like a mad monkey. 
 
Don't follow the body. Don't follow the mind. 
Follow the conscience. If only you learn 
this simple principle, your life will be sanctified.

What is most needed is not more food or buildings, but to make man manifest more tolerance, more humility, more brotherliness and compassion...


All efforts are now being concentrated 
on the production of more food, the building 
of more houses and the manufacture of more cloth. 

But what is most needed today is a total effort 
to make man manifest more tolerance, more humility,
more brotherliness, more compassion and deeper awareness 
of the springs of joy and peace that lie within the heart of each one.

Constantly remember the truth that love is God...


















Constantly remember the truth that love is God. 
Live in love. If you can cultivate such positive and noble thoughts
everything will turn out to be good for you.

Time waste is life waste. Money waste is an evil. Hence, do not waste money and time. Time is God and God is time.

Time is God and God is time...

Do not trouble yourself unnecessarily.
You are, at present, putting your body to a lot of trouble. 

You are wasting a lot of money too. 
Time waste is life waste. Money waste is an evil. 
Hence, do not waste money and time. 

Time is God and God is time.

Peace through sense and mind control...

PEACE THROUGH SENSE AND MIND CONTROL
You can experience Bliss only when you have learnt to control the Mind. To control the Mind, you have to engage in good deeds. As you go on performing good deeds, you will develop good thoughts and feelings; and when you have good thoughts, you will acquire true understanding of the Real. 
 
Sanctify the time given to you with good thoughts and good actions. To achieve this, you have to cultivate the company of the good, and all of this, in due course, would lead to liberation. Filling your mind with thoughts of God and engaging in good actions is true Service. 
 
People claim to spend hours in meditation. But of what use is it if there is no concentration of the Mind? Far better it is to render social service or participate in choirs, and through such means subject the Mind to some discipline. This also is how work gets transformed into worship. When you dedicate all your thoughts and actions to God, your actions automatically get purified. 
 
You can experience God through the performance of your duties and proper actions. The Bhagavad Gita says that the Kshetra (namely the body) and the Kshetrajna (namely the Atma) together constitute the human personality. 

Similarly, the scriptures refer to the human body as the temple and the Indwelling Spirit as the God residing in that temple. Even a mere intellectual understanding of this fact is enough to make you happy. But you would be happier still, when you put this understanding into practice in your daily life. 

You should try to seek continuous satisfaction and fulfilment by basing even your mundane activities on spiritual values. Whatever be the activity with which you are preoccupied in Society, you must be steadfast in holding on to the spiritual ideal. This alone will bestow lasting peace.
The sense organs should be sanctified by offering all the actions performed through them to God. 

You can surely achieve that sanctified state, provided you have strong determination. Unfortunately, man does not evince such a firm determination and tenacity of purpose in respect of spiritual matters, as he does for the sake of mundane things. Man is prepared to make any amount of effort to undertake a journey of millions of miles into outer space, but he hardly ever endeavours to go even an inch within, towards his Inner Self. 

What is the use of intelligence and worldly acquisitions when they cannot give Atma Shanthi (the untrammelled peace of the Atma or the Spirit)? God alone can confer such enduring peace on man.
As far as possible, avoid causing harm or pain to others. As you sow, so you reap. Whenever you feel disturbed by a sense of anger, envy, pride, jealousy and the like, become alert and resort to the contemplation of the Lord.

To remove the evil of egoism, service is the most efficient instrument...

To remove the evil of egoism, 
service is the most efficient instrument. 

Service will also impress 
on the person doing service,
the Unity of all mankind. 

He who dedicates his time, 
skill and strength to service,
can never meet defeat, distress 
or disappointment, for service is its own reward. 

His word will be ever sweet and soft, 
his gestures ever revered and humble. 
He will have no foe, no fatigue, no fear.

Post 1961..A must to read... and understand... the answer to why and how it is possible for the Lord to dwell in every being...

You might wonder and even doubt 
how it is possible for the Lord to dwell in every being. 

Have you not seen one single mango seed, 
grow into  a tree which gives thousands of fruits?  

In each of the fruit, there is to be found a seed,
very identical to the one which was first planted.  
So too, the One Lord, can be found in every being created by His Will. 

Everyone has to face the consequences of his actions....

Every one has to face the consequences of his actions. 
None can predict when and how but you are bound to face them. 

However, when you constantly think of God, 
you will never be put to suffering.

God will protect you from all suffering. 
He will always be with you, in you, around you, safeguarding you.

We must take up the study of the super conscious state just as any other science...

To get any reason out of the mass 
of incongruity we call human life, we 
have to transcend our reason, but 
we must do it scientifically, slowly, 
by regular practice, and we must cast off all superstition. 

We must take up the study of the super 
conscious state just as any other science. 
On reason we must have to lay our foundation, 
we must follow reason as far as it leads,
and when reason fails, reason itself will show 
us the way to the highest plane

Begin to think less and just follow the heart more! [part5]



Begin to think less and just follow the heart more! 

Thinking will only take away 
the present and will make 
the future fearful with expectations. 

Strengthen the mind by 
giving it a goal, by giving it 
a direction and by training it 
to listen to your command of "stop". 

The Lord must be remembered 
by thinking of Him, continually, 
and when God becomes the mind, 
life, too, will only be God! 

Break the chains of slavery, 
and protest the rule of this 
unrighteous and untruthful master. 

Know that the mind lives in 
constant fear of being conquered, 
and inflicts its anxieties on its victim - you! 

It's time to rise above the limitations
the mind has set on you, rise, and 
release yourself from the prison of binding thoughts.

To encompass yourself in purity, the mind, too must taste the sweetness of innocence and the silence of divinity..[part4].

To encompass yourself in purity, 
the mind, too, must taste the sweetness 
of innocence and the silence of divinity. 

Give your mind a focus - 
the focus of one name and 
one form that will silently control 
its wild tendencies to destroy 
every moment of peace that 
you may experience. 

When the mind will live in 
contentment with the Lord, 
every desire will meet with fulfillment, 
and the bliss of contentment will speak 
in your radiant smile and your selfless acts.
