The World Applauds

The world applauds
Only your manifestation-drops.
But in silence God applauds
Your aspiration-dedication-sea.

Your Beggar-Arms

As you stretch out your beggar-arms
To receive from the world
Its glittering but fleeting riches,
Even so you can lift your heart upward
To receive from Above
Light and Delight in infinite measure.

He Reluctantly Obeyed God

He reluctantly obeyed God.
Even so, his obedience saved him.
Darkness-night did not last
And a spiritual dawn he saw.

Lightning Progress

My Lord Supreme,
How can I make lightning progress
In my spiritual life?
“My child,
Do the right thing
And become the perfect thing
With a nameless life
And an expectation-empty breath.”

Every Day

Every day my entire being
Receives a blessingful Boon
From my Lord Supreme,
And that boon is
A beauty-flooded dawn of joy.

The Modern World

The modern world thinks,
“God has to be demonstrated.”
The ancient world thought,
“God has to be realised.”

The Secrets of the Inner Heights

The secrets of the inner heights
Dwell far beyond
The territories of the mind.

Be A Self-Giver

Be a self-giver.

Everybody will follow

In your all-illumining footsteps.

My Self Transcendence Song

My self-transcendence-song

Is the only treasure

That my Lord Supreme cherishes

And will forever cherish.
