🌸
Our hearts are carried
By the whisper of God’s Dream —
In our morning prayers.
🌸
🌼
With Grace, to serve each
Fullness day — and with Joy, to
Play each role our best.
🌼
How many times has
Your Compassion-Heart saved us
From our own self-will!
🌼
When we return to
Our timeless serenity —
God is pleased with us.
🌼
🌸
God takes birth each day
In the hopes and the dreams of
All sentient beings.
🌸
At the frontier of
Thought formation — we have the
Choice of what to think.
🌸
A rock, enjoying
Millennial slumber, does
Not squeal when stepped on.
🌸
🌼
An elephant carved
In stone-grain strength, bejewlled with
Transcendent glory.
🌼
The last catch before
The storm — we run for shelter —
Indra, please spare us!
🌼
The resplendent tea
Gardens of Darjeeling — the
Mist and mountain green.
🌼
🌼
The heart-expanding
Realm of God’s Delight reminds
Us where we belong.
🌼
We empty our minds
Into our fullness-hearts so
Our thoughts can feel Joy!
🌼
🌸
A journey that starts
With one doubt,
has so many
Uncertain endings.
🌸
We pray before each
Action, but before we can
Pray, Who prays for
Us!
🌸
God’s surety smiles,
When we have the courage to
Trust our inner light.
🌸
🌼
In the nestling of
Twilight resting — in the hour
Of moonlight blessing.
🌼
In the leaves of light
Glistening — in the shadow’s
Quiet listening.
🌼
You are with me in
Our heart depths caring — in tears
Of oneness sharing.
🌼
🌸
Your all-perceiving
Eyes cast their view upon each
Aspiration heart.
🌸
We inspire each
Other to reach higher than
We could by ourselves.
🌸
🌼
In the presence of
Angels, we dissolve in the
Heart of Heaven Light.
🌼
Let us not submit
To the cruel assessments
Of critical minds.
🌼
In this life, there is
Every chance we will become
What we want to be.
🌼
🌸
The architecture
Of heaven — reflected in
A flower petal.
🌸
There is no foregone
Pathway to tomorrow — when
God’s Will intervenes.
🌸
🌼
The greatness of an
Idea is not in its earth-
Shattering triumph!
🌼
At times our minds weigh
Far more than our bodies — when
We lose our heart’s joy.
🌼
🌸
The olive branch of
Peace, hangs just out of reach — as
Centuries roll by.
🌸
Even an island
Fortress can never protect
Us from our own thoughts.
🌸
🌼
How can we be sad
When the music of the soul
Breathes in and through us?
🌼
Prayer does not live in
The world of things and pieces,
Of follies and chance.
🌼
I will gather all
Those precious moments shared — to
My heart’s inner core.
🌼
🌸
Who inspires our
Hearts to coalesce, in this
World of fractured thoughts?
🌸
Above world sorrow —
We wing the welkin blue of
Our heavenward way.
🌸
Our souls are resolved
To prove that world oneness is
Not a far-off dream.
🌸
🌼
To catch a glimpse of
Beauty amid life’s turmoil,
Feeds the starving soul.
🌼
Protected by God —
Mankind’s highest ideals are
Imperishable.
🌼
Washed by our soul’s prayer-
Currents we are the shores of
Undiscovered peace.
🌼
🌸
Stepping through the rush
Of day into a realm of
Unexpected Joy.
🌸
We sprint to the field
Of dreams, to please the One who
Created our Game.
🌸
🌼
No matter how much
We share our heart’s gifts, we will
Always have enough.
🌼
We are God’s chosen
Children, tasked to share His Love
With all creation.
🌼
🌸
God Himself walked with
Us on earth for a time — still,
We hear His footfalls.
🌸
Our hearts constantly
Remind us to remember
The word — gratitude.
🌸
Our souls continue
Day after day to offer
Our gratitude smiles.
🌸
🌼
We are born of the
Transcendent — to express the
Unknowable truth.
🌼
I bookmark your page
With love, so I can read it
Again and again.
🌼
Who am I and what
Do I know — so much more and
Far less than I think.
🌼
🌸
How the children play —
Before they are shaped by a
World set in its ways!
🌸
With Grace, we come to
Know that for each dead end there
Is a way forward.
🌸
🌼
Each God-devoted
Heart is at the vanguard of
World transformation.
🌼
We cling to so-called
Certainty while in the swing
Of impermanence.
🌼
May the vast blue sky
Of dreams always be home to
The bird of my heart.
🌼
🌸
At each and every
Moment, we must be ready
To be uplifted!
🌸
While religions are
Debating, the Peace of our
Souls is feeding us.
🌸
When we are kinder
To ourselves, our kindness spreads
To one and all.
🌸
🌼
To act in good faith,
Despite the outcome, is a
Noble victory.
🌼
Though our hearts may be
Besieged by life‘s losses — let
Gratitude remain.
🌼
🌸
Politics is a
Man-made compromise — God is
Not political.
🌸
Heaven-made oneness
Is spirituality —
We are spiritual.
🌸
🌼
Nineteen thirty one —
The year God played upon His
Special kettledrum.
🌼
Nineteen sixty four —
The year God walked upon His
Chosen Western shore.
🌼
🌸
All the trees have come
Together to discuss the
Future of mankind.
🌸
In one divine brush
Stroke, the artist captures the
Essence of the soul!
🌸
We are a danger
To ourselves, when we believe
That we have free will.
🌸
In the hush and pause
Of silence — from a whisper —
There, a word is born.
🌸
🌼
In our lives of haste —
Either we want the clock turned
Backward or forward.
🌼
🌸
My Lord Supreme, do
Allow me one more moment
On earth to serve you.
🌸
🌸
My Lord Beloved
Supreme, wherever you lead,
Let me follow You.
🌸
🌼
O my guardian,
O protector of my life,
O silent witness!
🌼
🌸
At the tipping point
Between heaven and earth — our
Soul’s transcendence dance.
🌸
Let us not put our
Spiritual lives on hold for
Meaningless pursuits.
🌸
Thank You for my heart
That loves You, and thank you for
My life that serves You.
🌸
🌼
God’s presence within
The world is the only gift
We can all cherish.
🌼
O my Lord, do let
Me always remain a child,
Playing at your Feet.
🌼
🌸
I know when I pray,
I am in the comforting
Lap of God Himself.
🌸
🌼
A simple problem —
Becomes trapped in the mind’s maze
Of complexity.
🌼
From the possessor
Of the Sun, we are given
The Llight of reason.
🌼
In the depths of our
Heart is God’s assurance that —
He will not fail us.
🌼
🌸
My Lord do protect
Our subtle nerves — so we can
Feel your subtle form.
🌸
Into life we came
With boundless joy and hope — let
Us not spill a drop!
🌸
🌸
Impenetrable
To the casual gaze — the
Mysteries of life.

🌸
Over and over
Again, our hearts repeat the
Same word — Gratitude!
🌸
Only one raindrop
Need fall from heaven, for the
Whole forrest to smile.
🌸
🌼
The Eternal Flame —
Long ago lit by Your Soul’s
Illumination.
🌼
You chose for us the
High path — not oft-trodden — one,
That always rises.
🌼
God is smiling through
Our tears as we remember
His surrender life.
🌼
🌸
We do our best each
Day to serve the world soul — not
For our own reward.
🌸
No earthly thought can
Contain its form in silent
Stratospheric heights.
🌸
🌼
Peace is not only
An option, it is in fact —
The only option!
🌼
The real tragedy
Of life is when we ignore
Opportunity.
🌼
Of myriad thoughts,
So very few can turn life
Into poetry.
🌼
🌸
The gentle lap of
Waves along night’s surrender
Shore — as peace descends . . .
🌸
When all hope seems lost,
Even then our hearts hold to
Hope unlimited!
🌸
🌼
A message in a
Bottle sighs — undiscovered
On a lonely beach!
🌼
When we carry our
Oneness-heart within us, we
Are never alone.
🌼
🌸
Time is not ours — we
Borrow our fleeting lives from
The eternal now.
🌸
Faces in a crowd —
Those with hope, glow, while those with
None, seem not to care!
🌸
Your come to visit
My dreams, to soothe my soul with
Your sweet melodies.
🌸
🌸
Remember me, when
The cherry blossoms rise — and
Fall upon your heart.
🌸
In perfect silence
We hear prayers of centuries
Past-present-future.
🌸
🌼
To the stars and back —
We sail on the inspired
Wings of poetry.
🌼
Deep within my heart
You are playing — I know well
Your footfalls of light.
🌼
🌸
Not focused on the
Here and now, the benign gaze —
From the summit blessed.
🌸
The pinnacle race —
The victory gong, the oneness
And transcendence-song.
🌸
To look upon earth
From inner heights, to breathe in
The beauty-vast dawn.
🌸
🌼
I like to do laps
In an open pool, where light
Ripples with each stroke.
🌼
The miser of thought —
The mind — will not relinquish
Its prize processions.
🌼
Yours is the life that
Needs no expression, yet you
Willingly share it.
🌼
🌸
One by one they land
On terra firma — safe, from
Their midnight crossing.
🌸
Your peace poems will
One day be the headline on
Prime time evening news!
🌸
🌼
To leave the past as
It was — with no regrets — and
Not a backward glance.
🌼
To claim the present
And each opportunity
As a special gift.
🌼
To look the future
In the eye — and see all that
We are meant to be.
🌼
🌸
Like a tulip, our
Long winter journey ends — with
A burst of glory!
🌸
A heavy heart needs
To be taken lightly — if
We want to survive.
🌸
🌼
The storm passes by,
Yet the house of bamboo and
Rice paper still stands.
🌼
Who am I to teach,
When every answer I give
Begs more questions?
🌼
🌸
The Enlightened One
Gave up his princely wealth — and
Became the Buddha!
🌸
Even as time is
Running out, we feel we have
An eternity.
🌸
In every country
We can find those who speak the
Language of the heart.
🌸
🌼
An ice-clear morning —
The temple ground echoes in
The sound of prayer.
🌼
O heaven-close
Smile — you are the inner light
Of the formless form.
🌼
🌸
There will never be
A last prayer-poem — for God
Is still creating.
🌸
It is not magic
That changes reality
But our perceptions.
🌸
From a distance, I
Glimpse you waving — and my heart
Runs towards your heart.
🌸
🌼
All space and time are
Contained in the expanse of
Your heart’s universe.
🌼
On the beat of a wing,
The butterfly is gone — such
Exquisite beauty!
🌼
🌸
There could never be
A heart so rare, that Heaven
Itself has not claimed.
🌸
Somethings we are not
Permitted to say — those, we
Should leave to others.
🌸
The play of light from
Another world — there at the
Dappled water’s edge.
🌸
🌼
The high breeze carries
Your soul-flute melodies through
The forest treetops.
🌼
It is easy to
Forget — there is no fun in
Being unhappy.
🌼
At the appointed
Hour, long ago, we set sail
On our heart-journey.
🌼
🌸
God’s oneness-heart prays
In and through us — for our
Dear and precious ones.
🌸
God brings our prayer-hearts
Close to Him, so our lives can
Feel His oneness-touch.
🌸
We are not only
Part of God’s oneness-life — we
Are — His oneness-life.
🌸
🌼
In the morning, I
Sing your songs — at night, my soul
Sings them back to me.
🌼
We are the ageless,
Trying to inspire the
Ageing — here and now!
🌼
🌼
I seek a place where
The wild lotus grows, where peace
Itself is breathing.
🌼
Teardrops fall softly
From the artist’s brush upon
The canvas of time.
🌼
🌸
We meditate on
The Moon god until our hearts
Are brimming with Peace.
🌸
We meditate on
The Sun god until our hearts
Are ablaze with Truth.
🌸
When I hear your name,
Immediately my heart
Responds with pure Joy.
🌸
🌼
So close yet so far,
For the hands that reach — yet not
For the heart that waits.
🌼
We focus on the
Light within — where life’s cruel
Waves cannot touch us!
🌼
🌸
Today my heart is
Leaving — leaving its deepest
Gratitude with You!
🌸
My heart is flying,
With the divine vision of
Your soul-sparkling eyes.
🌸
I will carry home
All the Love, Kindness and Joy
You have given me.
🌸
🌼
One day, there will be
No words — till then, I shall send
You my heart-poems.
🌼
🌸
As the morning light
Stretches to infinity
It warms every heart.
🌸
🌼
Even when the wind
Blows cold across wintry skies,
Please remember me.
🌼
We may not be our
Best everyday, yet we put
Our best foot
forward.
🌼
🌸
My heart loves to roam
The heaven-free skies, to wing
The vastness dreaming.
🌸
When we speak before
Thinking, life seems to throw our
Words straight back at us.
🌸
The world is at my
Window — looking in, looking
Out — it sees me not!
🌸
🌼
On mountain heights, a
Pot of water boils quickly,
Yet is still lukewarm.
🌼
Perhaps gods came down
From realms on high, in search of
A good cup of tea!
🌼
🌸
We are on a quest,
You and I, to see how far
Our hearts can expand.
🌸
In every order —
Beyond the magnitude of
Longing — I miss you.
🌸
Night river flows, out
To the sea, carrying dreams
Of the day gone by.
🌸
🌼
The divine forces —
With their rescue-blazing Light —
Are fast approaching.
🌼
We will not close our
God-gilded heart-doors, even
In times of trouble.
🌼
To the one who chose
Us — to the one who sustains
Us — we will remain.
🌼
To the One who chose
Us, we shall remain; to the
One who sustains us,
We shall remain; to the One
Who claims us, we shall remain.
🌸
How much will time tell;
And how long will it take — these
Are open questions.
🌸
Aspiration-Ground —
The gentle silence — and the
Crickets’ evening song.
🌸
🌼
‘Now’ and ‘then’ — have their
Perfect resolution in
A heart of oneness.
🌼
We find suffering
Nothing new, when we think of
Those who went before.
🌼
We can always find
New Joy — when we follow our
Heart’s call to oneness.
🌼
🌸
In teardrop morning
Meadows we gather God’s Heart-
Flowers for our shrines.
🌸
🌼
If we see not the
Subtle ways that crisscross our
Human lives — then why!
🌼
The emptiness of
An island continent — the
Vast, ancient spirit.
🌼
There is no option —
We have to surprise ourselves
With our resilience!
🌼
🌸
From the roof of the
World, a raindrop falls — saved by
God’s vast safety net.
🌸
We maybe made of
Atoms — but even atoms
Are made of pure Grace.
🌸
🌼
Each time a divine
Thought takes flight, it makes its way
To inspired hearts.
🌼
Beyond the prince’s
View, the mendicant makes his
Palace everywhere.
🌼
I have not read this
Book — merely held it in hand —
Yet, poetry sings!
🌼
🌸
Theologians may
Describe — but who will claim — the
Indescribable!
🌸
The moon is rising
And with it, it brings a new
Hope for peace on earth.
🌸
🌼
In whom can we trust
To hold our gaze when the
Tiger is prowling?
🌼
The brightly tipped wings
Of Heaven’s newness, charm earth’s
Upper atmosphere.
🌼
🌸
God knows why our minds
Are conveniently not
Aware when He calls!

In all that we are,
And in all that we do, we
Are your promise-drop.
🌼
If we leave this world
Just one thing, let it be our
Breath of gratitude.
🌼
🌸
Where the winds run high —
The air, clear, crisp and clean — there,
The pinnacle play!
🌸
My Lord, rescue me
From ingratitude island —
If you can find it?
🌸
🌼
I feel the presence
Of your heart’s smile in the soft
Morning air — I feel.
🌼
I see your face in
The sky-blue vast; in cloud-white
Brushstrokes fine — I see.
🌼
I hear you running
Through the green and the dense groves;
Your footfalls — I hear.
🌼
I catch your sweet and
Gentle fragrance as it plays
On the breeze — I catch.
🌼
I taste the nectar
Bliss of your ambrosial
Heaven-height — I taste.
🌼
I touch the edge of
The finite when your soul comes
To bless me — I touch.

Non-interventionist — when
HOPE lives in our hearts.

Hokusai’s Great Wave

Your gentle heart-waves
Wash over my heart — with all-
Embracing oneness.
🌼
In you, I see the
Unattainable beauty
Of heavenly heights.
🌼
In the core of my
Heart, I hear your sweet whispers —
In their joyful play.
🌼
🌸
Remember to pray —
Forgiveness alone will cure
Our forgetfulness.
🌸
The pre-requisites
For a happy heart — hands that
Pray and feet that run.
🌸
🌸
You are coming home
And my heart is thrilled — I can
Not wait to see you!
🌸
🌼
In the City of
Hearts — no stop and go signs,
Just signs of progress.
🌼
We are the life breath
Of our soul on earth — here to
Manifest one Dream.
🌼
Do illumine me,
Lord of the effulgent Light
With your divine gaze.
🌼
🌸
A starry night sky —
All the cosmos gathers for
One finite moment.
🌸
We have searched and searched,
For centuries — an endless
Journey — still, we try.
🌸
🌼
If oneness cannot
Find a home on earth
Then where will it go!
🌼
If dissent is the
Example we set now — then
What of the future!
🌼
Our role is not to
Correct a confused world — but
Pray that Light descends.
🌼
🌸
We are drops of Peace
Come to fill the ocean vast
With dreams of oneness.
🌸
At evening’s close, my
Tired heart is crying for
Your smiles of love-light.
🌸
🌼
To know nothing, is
By far better than to know
The gossiper’s tale.
🌼
O river of hope
Take our hearts with you to your
Vision’s destiny.
🌼
We hold desire
Tight in hand while time slips like
Sand through our fingers.
🌼
🌸
As the disparate
Sounds of day fade to night, our
Hearts claim the silence.
🌸
Life should not be the
Sum of shattered fragments, but
One unbroken whole.
🌸
Peace — so simple — yet
Difficult for a complex
World to understand.
🌸
🌼
For those who live in
The heart, the chains of the mind
Can never bind them.
🌼
We pray for God’s Grace —
Rather than wait forever
Until all else fails.
🌼
🌸
Where is the heart that
Never stops loving, and the
Smile that never ends?
🌸
For you, we care — there
Is not a minute in the
Day we do not care.
🌸
God’s concern is the
Golden thread, woven into
The fabric of life.
🌸
🌼
Each unenlightened
Opinion is complicit
In truth division.
🌼
A Oneness Band will
Be playing God Songs in our
Heart Palace tonight.
🌼
You are such a soulful inspired and appreciator
🌸
All in a moment,
Your smile caught my heart in
Its skyward embrace.
🌸
The sleeping lion
Is purring, perhaps dreaming —
Of his own heaven!
🌸
🌼
O inner pilot
Of my life’s journey, how can
I ever thank you!
🌼
The world says and does
Anything — must we react
To everything!
🌼
Our souls are singing
And dancing on the highest
Branch of our life-tree.
🌼
🌸
Each and every day,
A new poem wings its way
Home — to your heart’s nest.
🌸
Our sense of oneness
Knows instantly, of that which
The mind makes no sense.
🌸
🌼
When heaven and earth
Meet, worlds merge and emerge in
Glorious newness.
🌼
In toss and tarry,
In the swirling currents of
Life — we learn to swim.
🌼
New world leaders should
Have an age limit — none more
Then seven years old!
🌼
🌸
On the mountain crests —
Home to ethereal heights —
There, gods meditate.
🌸
World transformation,
May not come in our time — but
At God’s destined hour.
🌸
🌼
Our philosophy
Of life, must be consistent
With reality.
🌼
Your philosophy
Of life, transcends the limits
Of reality.
🌼
God’s philosophy
Of life is perfection of
All realities.
🌼
🌸
Let us dive into
The endless beauty of a
Luminescent sea.
🌸
Out of your silence-
Heart was born all that has been
And all that will be.
🌸
Our hearts are longing
For ever-higher worlds — those
Blessed by God’s own Hand.
🌸
🌼
The piano — your
Field of Kurukshetra — where
Plays the battle high!
🌼
Sweet memories of
You still spread far across the
Vast inner heartscape.
🌼
I sail upon a
Sea of peace, because I have
Your smile in my heart.
🌼
🌸
Worldly thoughts only
Give us headaches — never mind
Illumination.
🌸
We are given to
Earth by the stars, to spread the
Light of the heavens.
🌸
No ordinary
Mind can contain all the heart’s
Possibilities.
🌸
🌼
In the seeking, in
The finding, in the becoming —
Our hearts are complete.
🌼
One glance from you, and
In a twinkling, the world goes
From darkness to light.
🌼
🌸
Let us pray, mankind’s
Actions today preserve a
World for tomorrow.
🌸
Let us pray, mankind’s
Actions today deserve a
World of tomorrow.
🌸
When tomorrow comes
And the world falls silent — God’s
New promise will dawn!
🌸
🌼
You touched our hearts with
Ageless grace — a child who jumped
Each hurdle of life!
🌼
Irrepressible
Joy you gave; inner beauty
You gave — smiles you gave.
🌼
🌸
The monsoon winds come
With the blessingful gift of
Transformation-rain.
🌸
To tally life’s worth
In wins and losses — yet to
Ignore inner peace!
🌸
🌼
The paradox of
Life — to find our true selves, we
Must first lose ourselves.
🌼
Love, devotion and
Surrender — the solution
To all life’s problems.
🌼
🌸
God loves happy hearts —
Just to be happy can make
Miracles happen.
🌸
Only in heaven,
Could such a soul exist, yet
You walked among us.
🌸
🌼
As the snowline of
Mount Fuji begins to melt —
Haiku waters flow.
🌼
I write heart poems
On the wind, and bid them take
Sweet tidings to you.
🌼
May gratitude tears
Fall like gentle rain upon
Your forgiveness heart.
🌼
🌸
As birds fly south on
Ancient wings, so there is a
Season for each soul.
🌸
We are twice blessed — once
When we know, then when we
Know — what to forget.
🌸
🌼
Let centuries pass —
Time is of no consequence
When you are with me.
🌼
We are not finite,
We play not finity’s game.
We are — infinite!
🌼
🌸
Those were the years of
Wonder, when seconds contained
Eternity, and
We ran with light speed to catch
Infinity in our hands.
🌸
One gratitude thought
Is all it takes to open
Your forgiveness heart.
🌸
🌼
We swim in the peace
Of a meditation sea —
Absorbed in silence.
🌼
In ways unforeseen,
Your divine countenance draws
Our hearts close to you.
🌼
Poet of the heart,
You need no words to express
Your innermost dreams.
🌼
🌸
Why crowd our minds with
More thoughts — when we have far too
Many of our own!
🌸
Inspired thoughts have
A line of sight directly
To the heart of Truth.
🌸
🌼
An inner door will
Open — just patiently
wait
And quietly pray.
🌼
Even when you are
Not here, you are here — because
Your heart is with me.
🌼
🌸
We are pilgrim souls
Following our gratitude
Path — to our heart home.
🌸
This much, I do not
Know — when, where, what, how and why,
Yet, I do know — Who!
🌸
Each gift I receive,
I offer to your heart from
Mine — without a thought.
🌸
🌼
You came into my
Life at just the right time — of
Your divine choosing.
🌼
The innocent eyes
Of a child see most clearly —
Goodness in this world.
🌼
Let us please our Lord
Supreme for at least one day
In this fleeting life.

A heart of beauty
Is constantly creating
Newness in the world.
🌸
The world that treasures
The heart’s beauty, reveals God’s
Ever-smiling face.
🌸
🌼
A second, when filled
With gratitude, can contain
An eternity.
🌼
So little room left
For God the Infinite in
Man-made religion.
🌼
Blessed were we who walked
In the prayerful footsteps
Of our Master Lord.
🌼
🌸
Our inspired thoughts
Have a direct line of sight
To the heart of Truth.
🌸
We do not need to
Import uninspired thoughts
From a heartless world.
🌸
We return again
And again to the time our
Hearts first saw your face.
🌸
🌼
You gathered sweet songs
On your gentle descent from
Those heavenly realms.
🌼
You embody the
Soft light of dawn and brilliance
Of the midday sun.
🌼
O songbird divine,
Each day you bring to the world
Your heaven-free songs.
🌼
🌸
We have all we need
When our hearts become the sea
Of humility.
🌸
In my life‘s songbook
The gratitude songs you wrote,
Are my favourites.
🌸
A chain reaction
Of joy, starts when God’s Grace and
Our willingness meet.
🌸
🌼
The vain pursuit of
Material happiness
Leaves the world bankrupt!
🌼
We live not just to
Be; we come not just to live —
We live, to become.
🌼
We are envoys of
The divine — with a very
Special peace mission.
🌼
🌸
My mind is at rest
When I remember that I
Am not the doer.
🌸
In the shimmering
Twilight — in the transition
Between heaven and earth.
🌸
Hearts that carry the
Inspiration of the soul,
Can carry the world!
🌸
🌼
It is the message
Divine — carried on the four
Winds and seven seas.
🌼
No matter — to be
Judged right or wrong by the world —
If God is smiling.
🌼
In the distant sky —
In the vast blueness dreaming —
There, I see your face.
🌼
🌸
Were we to sight the
Elusive deer, we would need
Be the forest deep.
🌸
Everything on earth —
From empires to a grain
Of sand — rise and fall.
🌸
Subtle records of
The past remain — until God
Rewrites history!
🌸
🌼
God is constantly
Creating new beginnings
For all those who pray
Devotedly — for His Will
Alone rewrites history.
🌼
When the hour strikes —
Lifelong promises we made
Will all be fulfilled.
🌼
A moonlit night, and
The charm of the sky gathers
Our hearts together.
🌼
🌸
God’s tears turn to Joy
As they fall gently upon
The world-heart ocean.
🌸
The sum of all our
Yesterdays — but a moment
In our endless quest.
🌸
Down to the river
Valleys where waters run deep —
Purity abounds.
🌸
🌼
Three soul-birds, perched on
A branch — each one is singing
The happiness song.
🌼
No matter how hard
It may be, we still dare to
Catch the rainbow’s end.
🌼
I am dreaming of
My heart home, where I am wrapped
In smiles of delight.
🌼
🌸
We set sail on the
Morrow’s dawn — jettison now
All that impedes us!
🌸
To dip a brush in
Colours never seen; to paint
A line with no end.
🌸
🌼
We follow the Light
Of our Beloved, spreading
Joy all-where we go.
🌼
Songs you once taught me,
Are now singing by themselves
Deep inside my heart.
🌸
🌼
God can walk on earth
With absolute poise — since it
Is His creation.
🌼
False economy
To invest in doubt — with no
Positive returns!
🌼
Each need is met — there
Are oases even In
Shifting desert sands.
🌼
The vicissitudes
Of this mortal life are not
For the faint hearted.
🌼
We come carrying
The divine banner to the
Battlefield of life.
🌼
How blessed are we to
Have spiritual sisters
And brothers who care!
🌼
In our limitless
Imaginings, who could see
This divine outcome.
🌼
🌸
We have within us
The force that created the
Universe — always!
🌸
Critics do not know the
Depth of inner commitment —
And many never will.
🌸
For those who run the
Inside track — now the sprint to
The finish begins!
🌸
🌼
With your heart came the
Golden touch to my haiku
Inspirations book.
🌼
God is praying that
We never once depart from
His oneness-life dream.
🌼
The most important
Gift in all of creation
Is our oneness-life.
🌼
🌸
At the peace table
Of the future, the heart first
Reads the soul’s message.
🌸
Those who have helped us
Once, have helped us again — to
Express gratitude.
🌸
Oneness alchemy
Turns each drop of sadness to
Immutable Joy.
🌸
🌼
O universal
Mother, the earth is badly
In need of your Light.
🌼
Of all the divine
Qualities, it is Light that
God chose to speak with.
🌼
O dispeller of
Darkness, we need your divine
Light more than ever.
🌼
🌸
Today I wonder,
From where will inspiration
Come — only God knows.
🌸
We may meet for a
Second, yet in that second —
Lives Eternity.
🌸
Such rare and precious
Beauty deep inside your heart —
Unfathomable!
🌸
🌼
The summer evening’s
Rhythm and tide — the gentle
Lap of night’s shore waves.
🌼
Suddenly, a door
Has opened and I enter
A new world of hope.
🌼
My Lord, please do not
Remain on the mountain top —
Do come and visit.
🌼
🌸
Left or right, right or
Left — is not important when
Oneness is preserved.
🌸
We need not shoulder
The problems of the whole world —
Not even our own!
🌸
Tonight’s temple ground —
The air, redolent with the
Scent of heart-flowers.
🌸
🌼
In the temple of
Devotion — in the silence-
Heart of dawn worship.
🌼
Always reserved for
You, is endless time and space
Deep within my heart.
🌼
Where time cannot be
Measured and space is not bound,
There I wait for You.
🌼
🌸
The whisper-air that
Brushes by, leaves your sweet and
Soulful messages.
🌸
What worries you, is
Worrying us all — in tears
We are not alone.
🌸
If we allow them —
Faith and intuition will
Write our life stories.
🌸
🌼
One teardrop of your
Concern, ripples across our
Heart’s oneness expanse.
🌼
O inspiration
You have come again — do stay
As long as you can.
🌼
I wish to live in
The fragrance-song heights of your
Infinite blessings.
🌼
Intangible Joy —
The petal-fall touch of your
Smile upon my heart.
🌸
It is our job — to
Approach the world with
Our sincere goodwill.
🌸
Beauty born of light,
That has travelled with the stars,
Shall remain ageless.
🌸
🌼
At sunset, when the
Heavens are lit with gold — then,
I know you are near.
🌼
Mind borders, built of
Brittle ideas, will fall to
God’s oneness ideal.
🌼
Inconceivable,
Conceived; unachievable,
Achieved — by Your Grace.
🌼
🌸
Half a century
Ago, you called me back
home —
O my Beloved.
🌸
Today my heart is
Singing a sweet, familiar
Bengali refrain.
🌸
With Your Absolute
Love of God, You became the
World transformation.
🌸
🌼
We gladly hold the
Peace Torch, not just for ourselves
But to pass it on.
🌼
The committee of
The inner world must please the
Will of the Supreme.
🌼
You peek around the
Corner when I least expect
It – O delight smile!
🌼
I an tired, yet
I follow a guiding star —
The road is endless.
🌸
It is not by our
Love of God that we are here
But God’s love for us.
🌸
For our voices to
Be one, it takes no more than
For us to listen.
🌸
There are no fish to
Be found in a dry lake bed —
Only empty boats!
🌸
🌼
Your soul-stirring words
Echo the foreverness
Of the cosmos vast!
🌼
Each time you appear,
A cascade of heart-delight
Falls from heaven skies.
🌼
The Department of
Circumstantial gods, takes care
Of unforeseen things.
🌼
🌸
Humility sweeps
The ground where gods and mortals
Alike will soon tread.
🌸
Cannonball boy screams
By — watch this! — oblivious
To God’s compassion.
🌸
The silent mountain
Knows that success-height does not
Come from our efforts.
🌸
🌼
O where are you my
Friend so dear — come, play with me
In our heart’s garden.

🌸
Shangri-La’s moonlit
Dream of Heaven on earth, still
Inspires our minds.
🌸
🌸
I asked myself, where
Are you going? I thought ‘you’
Knew, was the reply!
🌸
🌸
There are no goodbyes —
In our hearts’ togetherness —
No separation!
🌸
🌸
Never give up — there
Is no turning from the path
Our hearts have chosen.
🌸
🌸
In the depths of our
Hearts, we hear the whispering
Secrets of the soul.
🌸
🌸
We are the dreamers
Of peace, who received the peace
Torch from God’s Own Hand.
🌸
🌸
O bird of Peace, do
Permit me to feel your heart
Of inspiration.
🌸
🌸
O bird of Light, do
Stay deep within my mind to
Inspire my thoughts.
🌸
🌸
O bird of Bliss, do
Fill my life with the breath of
Your inspiration.
🌸
🌸
Down the sweep of time
The divine drama has played
Out upon earth’s stage.
🌸
🌸
Our hearts convey far
More than we know of what is
Said and what is seen.
🌸
🌸
Morning’s gentle touch
Of beauty — and the rising
Lightness of the soul.
🌸
🌸
You sang for us — for
Our sisters and brothers — and
So, we sing for You.
🌸
🌸
Faith is our silent
Companion as we journey
Toward dreams unknown.
🌸
🌸
The world we PRAY for
Can never succumb to the
Feeble pride of man.
🌸
🌸
Does inspiration
Not come because it does not
Want to disturb us?
🌸
🌸
God prays in and through
Our hearts, so we can feel the
Presence of His Voice.
🌸
🌸
We will survive cold
Winters with warm hearts — and hot
Summers with cool heads!
🌸
🌸
There is no time for
Procrastination when God
Urgently calls us.
🌸
🌸
A plunge in the cold
Winter sea, empties the mind
Of all its comforts.
🌸
🌸
We are never far
From home when our hearts feel the
Smile of belonging.
🌸
🌸
From the start, You said —
Your Path was Our Path — and You
Have never failed us.
🌸
🌸
God gave the Soul of
America His Heart to
Believe His Promise.
🌸
🌸
You believed, and you
Became — O God-chosen Soul
Of America.
🌸
🌸
My American
Sisters and brothers, your heart
Became the World-Home.
🌸
🌸
Ephemeral as
Rising mist — as silent as
The first fall of snow.
🌸
🌸
Our hearts encourage
One another always — not
Just in times of need.
🌸
🌸
You say, you have a
Great job! God says, what a great
Job you are doing!
🌸
🌸
The river never
Needs to think where it will flow
On its life’s journey.
🌸
🌸
Who can fathom
The sacred, unexplored depths
Of Your Compassion!
🌸
🌸
Yours is a rare heart —
Blessed with the enchanting light
Of inspiration.
🌸
🌸
We could sail the world
On a turtle’s back — if we
Took a few crumpets!
🌸
🌸
No matter where I
Go, all points of the compass
Lead me to Your Heart.
🌸
🌸
Butterfly wings — there
In the glistening — in the
Whisper listening.
🌸
🌸
God is happy when
Our hearts beat in time with His
Universal Heart.
🌸
🌸
Everything — even
Nothingness is not untouched
By the hand of Grace.
🌸
🌸
To think life could be,
Not for the taking — rather,
All for the giving.
🌸
🌸
We are the light of
Tomorrow, not the twilight
Of our yesterdays.
🌸
🌸
My heart is but a
Breath away — as words take flight
On the morning breeze.
🌸
🌸
Wearied by the world,
We seek a moment’s rest in
The lap of delight.
🌸
🌸
Without the light of
The soul and the peace of the
Heart, how can we live?
🌸
🌸
Do take me with you,
O my heart, when you rise to
Realms unreachable.
🌸
🌸
From Himalayan
Mist-covered heights, ancient streams
Of wisdom descend.
🌸
🌸
In finity and
In infinity — the light
Of divinity.
🌸
🌸
By some miracle
You found me — yet, our hearts knew
We were always One.
🌸
🌸
If we fulfil our
Promise today, the future
Will fulfil its own.
🌸
🌸
Subtle are the days —
Of joyful memories — now
Waiting to return.
🌸
🌸
Heaven and earth meet
At the event horizon
Of our consciousness.
🌸
🌸
In places where stars
Are made, we contemplate our
Universal form.
🌸
🌸
God’s Grace can and will
Cure all the ailments of the
Material mind.
🌸
🌼
In the busyness
Of life, we rarely hear the
Eternal silence.
🌼
🌼
Like a prodigal
Child — gone far from home — we hope
One day to return.
🌼
🌼
Our hearts have led us
This far — hold tight in the storm,
We will NOT fail now.
🌼
🌼
Divine silence brings
Peace to our hearts, that noise-shaped
Minds can never bring.
🌼
🌼
A soulful dream — a
Sign from heaven of what earth
Could one day become.
🌼
🌼
At the very core
Of our being, all that is
Possible exists.
🌼
🌼
O, my Lord Supreme,
Please impress upon my mind
That it knows nothing!
🌼
🌼
We will NOT fail — for
We are hearts illumined by
Universal Light.
🌼
🌼
From your dream-eye, a
God-shapened tear fell upon
My heart this morning.
🌼
🌼
Each new drop of joy,
Draws us closer to the Heart-
Ocean of Delight.
🌼
🌼
Your smile of sweetness,
Brings with it a flood of light
From another realm.
🌼
🌼
Humility is
God’s special gift that fills our
Hearts with gratitude.
🌼
🌼
When life’s cruel storms rage
Against us, our hearts pray at
Your Compassion-Shrine.
🌼
🌼
Though we are in the
Company of mortals — we
Are unlimited.
🌼
🌼
Even the bird in
A gilded cage longs to sing
Just one freedom song.
🌼
🌼
Inspired hearts rise
Far above the gravity
Of world opinion.
🌼
🌼
For incarnations,
You have been preparing our
Hearts to take the lead.
🌼
🌼
We need ever to
Remind ourselves that our thoughts
Do not define us.
🌼
🌼
The sage asks the frog,
How deep is your pond?
The frog turns — and smiles.
🌼
🌼
Hands come together
In prayer — hearts unite in
Peace — world’s in oneness.
🌼
🌼
The strongest climb, the
Quickest descent, the perfect
Sprint — le Maillot Jaune.
🌼
🌼
History begins
Not with the creation but
With the Creator.
🌼
🌼
Your songs sing within
The hearts of those who hear them
With their inner ears.
🌼
🌼
God’s Oneness-bond is
The heart’s revelation of
The Power of Love.
🌼
🌼
In each self-giving
Heart, dwells a God-smile that
Cannot be contained.
🌼
🌼
Each chapter starts with
Hope, when our prayers turn the
Pages of our lives.
🌼
🌼
Here within, and there
Without, beats the very heart
Of Divinity.
🌼
🌼
There is a perfect
Peace that descends upon us
When we bow our heads.
🌼
🌼
In the spotlight of
Truth, a mind of illusion
Has no place to hide.
🌼
🌼
Music of the soul
Inspires the dream of a
World-heart symphony.
🌼
🌼
You are the God-height
Made unreachable by Your
Own self-transcendence.
🌼
🌼
You are the God-depth
Made unfathomable by
Your ocean-vast dream.
🌼
🌼
You are the God-mind
Made unknowable by Your
Forgetfulness-trance.
🌼
🌼
You are the God-heart
Made lovable by Your own
Oneness-life promise.
🌼
🌼
My Lord, do allow
Me to wing the welkin heights
Of your vastness dream.
🌼
🌼
Neither here nor there —
Not a single atom can
Separate our hearts.
🌼
🌼
In the shimmering,
In the radiance, in the
Effulgence of Light.
🌼
🌼
Ordinary thought
Plays the same old mind-movie
Over and again.
🌼
🌼
Inspired thought is
A glimpse of newness light that
Illumines us all.
🌼
🌼
Thought that is not thought
Touches the silence of the
Great ocean of truth.
🌼
🌼
From sovereign heights,
Compassion-rain falls upon
Every crying heart.
🌼
🌼
We do not come with
Empty hands, for we are the
Torchbearers of peace.
🌼
🌼
The voice of the heart
Speaks, when words fray at the edge
Of definition.
🌼
🌼
In all that exists —
In every dichotomy
Of life — we are there.
🌼
🌼
From generation
To generation, we ask
The very same questions.
🌼
🌼
To become what we
Have always inwardly been —
Is life’s great challenge.
🌼
🌼
We shine brightest, when
We are the mirror image
Of our inner light.
🌼
🌼
Like rivers that heed
The call of the ocean — all
Souls are beckoned home.
🌼
🌼
Even the darkest,
Distant planet, is touched by
The light of the sun.
🌼
🌼
Haiku — a flower
Petal wisped by the breeze — comes
Falling to our hearts.

Dedicated to my Beloved Guru

🌸
Volume 17

🌸
A caring heart is
Constantly trying to heal
A divided world.
🌸
🌸
Time is too precious
To waste, for it is witness
To each progress-step.
🌸
🌸
It is gratitude
That elevates our lives from
Self-imposition.
🌸
🌸
Blessed are those who
Bravely embark upon the
Spiritual quest.
🌸
🌸
By willowed streams, where
Ancient waters run — the call
Of tranquillity!
🌸
🌸
Days like these, that have
Never before dawned — full of
Opportunities!
🌸
🌸
My Lord Beloved,
My Lord Beloved, my Lord
Beloved Supreme.
🌸
🌸
In this world of tears,
Your compassion smiles upon
Us with each heart-breath.
🌸
🌸
O Father Supreme,
O Mother Supreme, You care
For each orphan child.
🌸
🌸
Though we may not know
God, we are able to see
God, within Your eyes.
🌸
🌸
How many in this
World are blessed to have a life
Of divine purpose!
🌸
🌸
Whether we succeed
Or not, we will pray for Your
Will to guide our lives.
🌸
🌸
Please do not allow
Us to differentiate
Oneness-existence.
🌸
🌸
You speak directly
To the God within us from
The God within You.
🌸
🌸
You are the ageless,
Ever-young friend of my soul,
O my Beloved.
🌸
🌸
He who brought forth sound
From the vast primordial
Silence — spoke to us.
🌸
🌸
Hidden deep within
Our hearts, are sweet and secret
Dreamings of the soul.
🌸
🌸
We gather all our
Sad moments to place them at
Your compassion feet.
🌸
🌸
We are called to play —
Not to be mere spectators
In the game of life.
🌸
🌸
If we smile and smile,
We can all become clowns in
A divine circus!
🌸
🌸
A broad sweep of blue
Sky beckons the soul’s dreams to
Wing the infinite.
🌸
🌸
We do not need the
World’s applause — deep in our hearts
Someone is cheering!
🌸
🌸
By the time the words
Have reached their end, I finally
Will know what they mean.
🌸
🌸
The mind that wants to
Control our happiness, can
Not control itself.
🌸
🌸
Sometimes the treasure
We seek is not the treasure
That we hope to find.
🌸
🌸
You are the Trumpet-
Triumph of unstoppable
Enthusiasm!
🌸
🌸
Strange — that we always
Expect so much from a world
Of uncertainty.
🌸
🌸
Strange — the rigid mind
Leaves no room for change, until
Change comes unannounced.
🌸
🌸
If only our thoughts
Could fly unencumbered by
The weight of the past.
🌸
🌸
O my soul, please do
Remind me if ever I
Forget your blessings.
🌸
🌸
Long ago, ships of
Light set sail on voyages of
Self-discovery.
🌸
🌸
What can I offer
That You do not have — only,
A chatterbox mind!
🌸
🌸
The prayerful rise
Of the ancient moon — as the
Rain of peace descends.
🌸
🌸
Our memories are
Jokers — time travellers, face
Changers, place movers!
🌸
🌸
Divine Light alone
Illumines and liberates
Each human weakness.
🌸
🌸
Let us not exploit
Your promise of help, when we
Can take one step more.
🌸
🌸
When time runs out on
Equanimity and poise —
Righteous thunder strikes!
🌸
🌸
I need to swim in
Silence — not drown in a sea
Of mindless chatter.
🌸
🌸
To wait until it
Is too late — far more lost than
Opportunities.
🌸
🌸
Our souls are full-time
Divine envoys — alas, our
Minds are just part-time.
🌸
🌸
We do not need one
Hundred ears to hear the truth
Our hearts have long known.
🌸
🌸
The world is not black
And white, or shades of grey, it
Is full of colour!
🌸
🌸
Poised at the starting
Line — the elusive flight of
Time is ours to catch.
🌸
🌸
It is not our mind’s
Brilliance that will perfect earth —
It is the Soul’s Light.
🌸
🌸
Mind supremacist
Stop! — your grand ideas will not
Alter our hearts’ course.
🌸
🌸
God the Eternal
Dwells beyond — and within each
Brief, flickering life.
🌸
🌸
I come to offer
You a petal that dropped from
Your own rose garden.
🌸
🌸
How is it that one
Sweet smile can span the oceans
To unite our hearts!
🌸
🌸
You are a special
Spark from God’s Eye that came to
Illumine our lives.
🌸
🌸
Place yourself within
The silent heart of nature —
Just for a moment!
🌸
🌼
A sacred garden,
A oneness-shelter, guarded
By an unseen hand.
🌼
🌼
A world, untrammelled
By the human mind — nature
Creates its own peace.
🌼
🌼
Simplicity — a
Special heart-awakening
Realisation.
🌼
🌼
We are younger than
We think and older than we
Know — what then, is age?
🌼
🌼
To be always at
Your feet my Lord, is my first,
Last and only choice.
🌼
🌼
The power of a
Soulful dream transforms the night
Into a new dawn.
🌼
🌼
Some things last for a
Moment, others for years, or
Perhaps a lifetime.
🌼
🌼
Our gratitude hearts,
Born aeons ago, will last
For Eternity.
🌼
🌼
The mind-heart divide
Has split inner and outer
Continents apart.
🌼
🌼
Lifetimes of seeking,
And one sacred truth remains —
Let Thy Will be done.
🌼
🌼
Happiness — the heart’s
Participation in the
Soul’s celebration.
🌼
🌼
Happiness — the heart’s
Jubilant reunion with
The soul’s communion.
🌼
🌼
Try to catch racing
Thoughts mid-flight, or chase the tails
Of midnight comets!
🌼
🌼
Our spiritual
Lives are forever present,
Yet we still forget.
🌼
🌼
What truly troubles
Our minds — worldly disturbance,
Or inner turmoil?
🌼
🌼
With every step, let
Us pray we follow the same
Road our Lord once trod.
🌼
🌼
Throughout the winter
Of world indifference, Your
Heart’s smile kept me safe.
🌼
🌼
Ever so subtle,
The sweet interchange of our
Souls’ conversation.
🌼
🌼
That which separates
Us from ourselves, separates
Us from each other.
🌼
🌼
We write one new day
Into our lives — starting with
Our prayer-poems.
🌼
🌼
To gaze upon the
Heavens, frees our minds from the
World’s grip and tangle.
🌼
🌼
Today, the children
Are all rejoicing, for their
Father is coming!
🌼
🌼
Beloved Father,
Silence sustains us but O,
Just to hear Your voice!
🌼🌼
A spiritual
Father gives his children far
More than they will know.
🌼
🌼
When the Father and
The children sing together,
Earth becomes Heaven!
🌼
🌼
Our Father taught us
To never, ever lose sight
Of the inner child.
🌼🌼
How much can children
Give, that the Father has not
Already bestowed?
🌼
🌼
We observe Your day
With our soulful reverence —
O Father Supreme.
🌼
🌼
You have no need to
Knock, since I have given to
You, my own heart-key.
🌼
🌼
My Lord, if you are
Tempted to criticise me —
Please, just love me more.
🌼
🌼
When you come to me
With your silent grace, all time stops
And my heart is yours.
🌼
🌼
My Lord, when you call,
I will be there — no matter
What I am doing!
🌼
🌼
There — among dappling
Leaves and branchlets — a bird of
Light, swift and singing.
🌼
🌼
In the heart, not in
The mind, is where miracles
Happen every day.
🌼🌼
Like migrating birds,
We cross the globe, returning
Each year to our source.
🌼
🌼
Happiness is the
Courage to follow our heart,
When all else says no!
🌼
🌼
One divine smile can
Open the very heart-home
Of the universe.
🌼
🌼
There is a special
Place where rising prayers and
Descending Grace meet.
🌼
🌼
Heaven and earth are
At their perigee, in the
Silent pre-dawn hours.
🌼
🌼
There is a time when
Each heart-flower will open,
With the touch of Grace.
🌼🌼
When all hearts are One,
A new and all-embracing
Wave of love descends.
🌼
🌼
Wherever you are,
Wherever I am, I will
Offer you my songs.
🌼
🌼
Has the last train left?
I wait, I wonder — and the
Empty platform sighs.
🌼
🌼
Beyond all hope, the
Tracks begin to sing and the
Platform wakes in joy!
🌼
🌼
When words fall short of
The ineffable, we need
The language of Light.
🌼
🌼
You are the ancient
Wisdom of the past and the
Future of mankind.
🌼
🌼
The roaring, rolling
Thunder of the mountain gods —
There, wild horses run.
🌼
🌼
A flower offers
God’s divine love directly
To each weeping heart.
🌼
🌼
To sail with safe, shore
Winds, or cross the great oceans
Of discovery!
🌼
🌼
I look for you —
I know, my heart is the one
Place you will return.
