I must silence my mind
At every moment
To feel the blessingful Presence
Of my Lord Beloved Supreme.

Practise the feeling of oneness.
Do not try to get ahead of others
You are bound to be supremely happy.

His is a life
Mostly spent in making mistakes.
But his hallowed hunger for God-Love
Will eventually
Not only rectify and justify
But also glorify
All his unavoidable mistakes.

Excerpt from Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, Part 5 by Sri Chinmoy.

The secret of divine education:
Do not look back.
Your forgotten, hungry wolf-life
Will immediately devour you.
The secret of divine education:
Be sleeplessly on the alert.
Your ego-life can easily
Keep growing without nourishment.

Excerpt from Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, Part 5 by Sri Chinmoy.

My Eternity’s Lord Supreme,
Three tearful prayers:
Reinspire my heart-cry,
Rebuild my hope-tower,
Replenish my gratitude-cup.

Excerpt from Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, Part 5 by Sri Chinmoy.

Hope never retreats.
Faith never delays.
Love never sleeps.
Devotion never doubts.
Surrender never fails.

Excerpt from Ten Thousand Flower-Flames, Part 5 by Sri Chinmoy.

Within, without the cosmos wide am I;
In joyful sweep I loose forth and draw back all.
A birthless deathless Spirit that moves and is still
Ever abides within to hear my call.

I who create on earth my joys and doles
To fulfil my matchless quest in all my play,
I veil my face of truth with golden hues
And see the serpent night and python day.

A Consciousness Bliss I feel in each breath;
I am the self amorous child of the Sun.
At will I break and build my symbol sheath
And freely enjoy the world’s unshadowed fun.

Excerpt from “My Flute” by Sri Chinmoy

Not my failure
But my victory
Has become a wall
Between my Lord and my heart.

Negativity
Can never solve
Any problem.

From: Seventy-Seven Thousand Service-Trees vol 41

Jesus came to you quickly
To love you
When you were young.
The Christ has come to you unconditionally
To save you
When you are old.
