No ... loner is lonely ...


Loneliness is not an asked thing
Only the trapped type accept it.
No apparent loner is lonely indeed
In mind, in time always a company!

Only realises when steps out of cling
The moment one notices, out one is.
Just consumation stage! Absorbing!
The real cause is the state one is in!

The moment, even for a moment only
If one gets to look at the false 'reality'-
Awareness of this condition sticky
Immediately one is out, of with and within...

Solitude is rather to cultivate naturally.
Outer active, the inner in synchronicity 
In calm, poised repose everlasting
Nothing dry, rough but in warm nurturing...

Thank you...

“The inner loneliness can only be cured by the inner experience of union with the Divine; no human association can fill the void. In the same way, for the spiritual life the harmony with others must be founded not on mental and vital affinities, but on the divine consciousness and the union with the Divine. When one feels the Divine and feels others in the Divine, then the real harmony comes. Meanwhile what there can be is the goodwill and unity founded on the feeling of a common divine goal and the sense of being all children of the Mother…. Real harmony can come only from a psychic or a spiritual basis.

To be alone with the Divine is the highest of all privileged states for the sadhak, for it is that in which inwardly he comes nearest to the Divine and can make all existence a communion in the chamber of the heart as well as in the temple of the universe. Moreover that is the beginning and base of the real oneness with all, for it establishes that oneness in its true base, on the Divine, for it is in the Divine that he meets and unites with all and no longer in a precarious interchange of the mental and vital ego. So do not fear loneliness but put your trust in the Mother and go forward on the Path in her strength and Grace.” SA




Divine solicitude (in the sense of solicitude for others, a tender and affectionate and watchful care for their need and their good), the care of the Divine for the sadhaka. SA

કર્મથી જ કર્મનું બાણ!


કર્મને કર્મની સાંઠગાંઠ!
વળતર મળે જ વળતું, જાણ.

સ્વભાવ કર્મનો મૂકે પરિણામ.
વળે કર્મથી જ કર્મનું બાણ!

અહીં જ બ્રહ્માંડમાં ફરે ચક્રાકાર
બોલતું તીર છોડે જાણ બહાર!

ન દાન ન ધર્મ ન ક્રિયા-કાંડ
ભૂસી શકે છોડેલાં કર્મ નિશાન.

અહીં આજ ધામમાં થતો હિસાબ
દર કર્મનું ચૂકવણુ ઊતારે ઉધાર.

સ્વચ્છ ઇરાદો, અર્પણ બને બચાવ
નથી બીજો કોઈ સુરક્ષિત ઉપાય.

કર્તવ્ય ને પ્રયત્ન - ભૂમિકા આધાર,
કર્મ કર મનુષ્ય! ધરી સત્વ પ્રભાવ.

'મોરલી' નમન હરિહર સંધાન...
નિરંતર તવ રહો સદા સંગાથ...

જય હો પ્રભુ...

Karma is nothing but the will of the Spirit in action, consequence nothing but the creation of will. What is in the will-power of being, expresses itself in karma and consequence. When the will is limited in mind, karma appears as a bondage and a limitation, consequence as a reaction or an imposition. But when the will of the being is infinite in the spirit, karma and consequence become instead the joy of the creative spirit, the construction of the eternal mechanist, the word and drama of the eternal poet, the harmony of the eternal musician, the play of the eternal child.
* The Supramental Manifestation: Karma, Will and Consequence


When one does not repeat one’s past mistakes, the divine power, the power of the divine Grace, abolishes their consequences – their karma – in the being. But as long as mistakes are repeated nothing can be abolished, because one re-creates them at every minute. When a person has made a serious error, say, a serious mistake (it can be serious or not, but we are concerned primarily with the serious ones), such mistakes have their consequences in life, a karma which has to be exhausted. The divine Grace, if you call upon it, has the power to abolish that karma, to cut short the consequences – but the Grace can only do this when you,


within yourself, don’t begin all over again, when the mistake committed is not renewed. The past can be completely purified and abolished, on condition that one does not keep making it into a perpetual present.  The past can be cleansed to the point where it has no effect of any kind on the future, but only on condition that you stop the wrong vibration in yourself, that you don’t reproduce the same vibration indefinitely.
* Mother’s Agenda: June 2, 1961


Consciousness in work have to come by degrees, you must not expect to have it all at once; nobody can get it all at once. It comes in two ways, – first, if one practises remembering the Divine and offering the work each time one does something.  Secondly, by the meditation an inner consciousness begins to develop which, after a time, not at once or suddenly, becomes more and more automatically permanent. One feels this as a separate consciousness from that outer which works.
* Letters on Yoga – II: Sadhana through Work – III





Even the smallest meanest work became
A sweet or glad and glorious sacrament,
An offering to the self of the great world
Or a service to the One in each and all.

Let life be friend ...


Life does not stay or stagnet 
Even if one stops, still stands!

Very nature is flow, movement
Thus much, always in process!

When feels like stuck in a closet,
'Nothing moves' - identify as traps.

Those are numerous pockets
To pull one down to win the 'game'.

Remember the battle is not out there
Within what one catches, reflects.

So get up, awake with wide sights
Grapple the first possible thread.

Nothing is yet gone by, much is saved!
Bid a goodbye to bygones, start again...

One is in life breathing until now, today, 
Firm up the hold and let life be friend.

Lord...
You be the Light...
You be the Guide...


This energy, the force called Life is fundamentally towards growth. Thus always on move.

If one is grounded and connected to this force and with life, nothing can stop or stale the go.

The deviation, distraction, destruction is in mind, in thought, in emotion which in return show up as a cicumstance and create a vicious cycle.

Then, leaving that all aside, one can focus on the fortune that is yet to touch and transform the hurting, damaging energy to concrete progressive life style, that quality in life is to aim for. 

This naturality in attitude towards anything brings one closer to life and its elements. 

Remain spontaneous, hands on, flexible, concern, keen to deliver with attention...

Nothing can stop when life is befriended!

Thank you...

“Life energy, life-force is not physical in itself; it is not material energy, but rather a different principle supporting Matter and involved in it. It supports and occupies all forms and without it no physical form could have come into being or could remain in being. It acts in all material forces such as electricity and is nearest to self-manifestation in those that are nearest to pure force; no material force could exist or act without it, for from it they derive their energy and movement and they are its vehicles.

The true Life-Force too reveals itself as no longer this troubled harassed divided striving surface energy, but a great and radiant Divine Power, full of peace and strength and bliss, a wide-wayed Angel of life with its wings of Might unfolding the universe.” SA

દંભને કહો કે, ...


દંભને કહો કે, "અહીં ખુલ્લો છે વર્તાવ, 
નથી જરૂરી તારા આંચળાનો લિબાસ!

બેફિકર બેબાક છે નિયત ને વિચાર
વ્યવહાર વમળો સાથે પણ પ્રમાણિક કરાર.

વૈકલ્પિક પણ નથી, તો ક્યાંની ફરજિયાત!
જા જઈ શોધી લે નભવાને બીજો વાસ.

ખુલીને ખાખો થઈ જઈશ, વારમાં જરાક!
ઓગળી જવાશે. ભલે! રહીશ ધરી હામ.

રખેને ના આંટો મારીશ કે અમસ્તી લટાર!
અલપઝલપ પણ દેખાવા નથી ખુલ્લા દ્વાર.

હા, આવજે જરૂર. જો થાક્યો હો, ખેંચી ભાર -નકલી રૂપોનો ને થવું હોય શુદ્ધ તમામ આરપાર."

'મોરલી' વંદન...પ્રભુ!


દંભ તો ખુદની ખુદ સાથે આંધળા પાટાની રમત છે.
એવી રમત જેમાં જીત નથી. બંને પક્ષ હારે પોતાની તરફ કરેલા છે.

ભલે એ બીજી વ્યક્તિઓ માટે કે કોઈ ખાસ વટ વ્યવહાર માટે અમલમાં મૂકાતો હોય પણ એ નુકસાન તો યજમાનને જ કરે છે.

વ્યક્તિત્વમાં મહત્વનાં અંશ સાથે એ છેડછાડ કરે છે. ક્યાંક કશુંક નકલી, ઢોળ ચડેલું ઘૂસાડી દે છે. એવું ચોંટી જાય છે પછી કે યજમાન ખુદ એને પોતાનો હિસ્સો માની લે છે. ને એમ એ ઘર કરી જાય છે. કશુંક પણ દંભનાં ઓથારે વ્યક્તિત્વનો અભિન્ન અંગ બની જાય છે.

દંભનો સ્વીકાર એટલે છીછરા, ખોખલા, તકલાદી તત્વોને પ્રવેશ…

એક પ્રકારની કૃત્રિમતાને જીવન સોંપી દેવું અને એને તાજું માની એનાં ઉપર લીંપણ કર્યા કરવું.

અને એ ઢોળને અંતરઆત્મા સુધી ઢાંકી દેવાની મંજૂરી આપવી…

દરેક શરૂઆત નાની જ તો હોય છે…

‘ચેતતા નર સદા સુખી’... સમજવાની વાત છે!

જય હો પ્રભુ…

That [talking about spiritual things when one is full of imperfections] is not hypocrisy but a conflict between two parts of the nature. Hypocrisy comes in only when one preaches a thing one does not believe or deliberately pretends to be or aim at what one is not and has no intention of trying to become.
* Letters on Yoga — IV, Pg 92

The opposition in certain parts of the being exists in every sadhak and can be very obstinate. Sincerity comes by having first the constant central aspiration or will, next, the honesty to see and avow the refusal in parts of the being, finally, the intention of seeing it through even there, however difficult it may be.
* Letters on Yoga — IV, Pg 646

The greatest obstacle to the transformation of ones own character is hypocrisy. If you always keep this in mind when dealing with a child, you can do him a lot of good.

... No more the impulsive world ...


O Senses!

You have tasks to do
Receive as per the psyche - the 'Duke'.

Not the ways usual, crude!
From the inner guide, through real clues.

You are no more the impulsive world,
You have purpose to prove.

Time to scale up! Get brewed!
Expand sensory growth for the good.

You remain till you are needed.
The time Supramental will then lead you.

Till then be faithful!
To the Soul kind thus optimally improve.

Thank you...

“We receive the perceptions of the five senses, sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell and translate them into knowledge in our sense-mind. The term used for this in the philosophy of India is Manas. This sense mind accepts the sensations of the senses and translates them into an indirect experience or knowledge of the objects of the senses. But this sense mind is larger than and independent of these five senses. It can experience directly through direct modifications in its purest form of action. The changes we perceive known as emotions are an example of modifications directly affecting the sense mind and our becoming aware of them through direct experience. Love, hate, anger, fear all create waves that change the substance of the sense-mind and thus our experience of them. These emotions, while often conditioned by specific triggered impulses coming through the five senses, in fact are independent of them and can arise spontaneously within without a specific trigger at a specific time, through the action of memory, reflection or even sympathy.

While the senses make us feel and treat the world as different and other, in fact, they are distorting the deeper truth of the oneness of all the manifested universe. This leads us to the opportunity to experience the world directly through Manas without necessarily using the intermediary of the senses and thus getting a more direct experience, or even, developing new and additional senses beyond the five that we are comfortable with using through long habit, to extend the range of experience that the Sense-Mind is able to explore.

It is because of the long-standing habit of the sense mind relying on the five senses that we do not ordinarily experience or recognize the direct cognition capabilities of the sense mind. In various states such as hypnosis or dream, we can see the sense mind in some cases liberated from the senses, and a whole new world of experience begins to open up. This is an indication of a capability that can be potentially developed and extended even in the waking consciousness.”
* The Life Divine, Chapter 8, The Methods of Vedantic Knowledge



A STILLNESS absolute, incommunicable,
Meets the sheer self-discovery of the soul;
A wall of stillness shuts it from the world,
A gulf of stillness swallows up the sense
And makes unreal all that mind has known,
All that the labouring senses still would weave
Prolonging an imaged unreality.
* BOOK III: The Book of the Divine Mother 310


There Matter is the Spirit's firm density,
An artistry of glad outwardness of self,
A treasure-house of lasting images
Where sense can build a world of pure delight:
The home of a perpetual happiness,
It lodged the hours as in a pleasant inn.
The senses there were outlets of the soul;
Even the youngest child-thought of the mind
Incarnated some touch of highest things.
* BOOK III: The Book of the Divine Mother 328

This mind no silence knows nor dreamless sleep,
In the incessant circling of its steps
Thoughts tread for ever through the listening brain;
It toils like a machine and cannot stop.
Into the body's many-storeyed rooms
Endless crowd down the dream-god's messages.
All is a hundred-toned murmur and babble and stir,
There is a tireless running to and fro,
A haste of movement and a ceaseless cry.
The hurried servant senses answer apace
To every knock upon the outer doors,
Bring in time's visitors, report each call,
Admit the thousand queries and the calls
And the messages of communicating minds
And the heavy business of unnumbered lives
And all the thousandfold commerce of the world.
* BOOK VII: The Book of Yoga 478 479

The frontiers of the Ignorance shall recede,
More and more souls shall enter into light,
Minds lit, inspired, the occult summoner hear
And lives blaze with a sudden inner flame
And hearts grow enamoured of divine delight
And human wills tune to the divine will,
These separate selves the Spirit's oneness feel,
These senses of heavenly sense grow capable,
The flesh and nerves of a strange ethereal joy
And mortal bodies of immortality.

આ ચેતનાનું વિશ્વ!


ક્યાં કશું ઊણું કે પ્રભાવ છોડતું!
આ ચેતનાનું વિશ્વ! નીત નિશ્ચલ વહેતું...

ક્યાં કશું વિશ્લેષતું કે વિઘટન માણતું!
આ ચેતનાનું વિશ્વ! સ્થિરતામાં સતત વહેતું...

ક્યાં કશું છેદતું કે છોલવા અધીરું!
આ ચેતનાનું વિશ્વ! અસીમ પ્રવાહમય વહેતું...

ક્યાં કશું જોડવું કે અધુંરું સમાવતું!
આ ચેતનાનું વિશ્વ! છલોછલ સુયોજિત વહેતું. ..

ક્યાં કશું પુરાણું કે કટાયેલું પૂછાતું!
આ ચેતનાનું વિશ્વ! મૂળેથી શિખરગ્રસ્ત વહેતું...

આ ચેતનાનું ચહેકતું વિશ્વ...
કલરવે મંદમંદ પ્રસરતું રહેતું...

પ્રભો...પ્રભો...

“Consciousness is a fundamental thing, the fundamental thing in existence — it is the energy, the motion, the movement of consciousness that creates the universe and all that is in it - not only the macrocosm but the microcosm is nothing but consciousness arranging itself.

Consciousness is made up of two elements, awareness of self and things and forces and conscious-power. Awareness is the first thing necessary, you have to be aware of things in the right consciousness, in the right way, seeing them in their truth; but awareness by itself is not enough. There must be a Will and a Force that make the consciousness effective.” SA

“The only thing that is truly effective is the change of consciousness; it is inner liberation through a close and constant union, absolute and inevitable, with the vibration of the supramental forces. The preoccupation of every second, the will of all the elements of the being, the aspiration of the whole being, including all the cells of the body, is this union with the supramental forces, the divine forces. And there is no longer any need at all to be concerned with what the consequences will be. What has to be in the play of the universal forces and their manifestation will be, quite naturally, spontaneously, automatically; there is no need to be concerned about it. The only thing that matters is the constant, total, complete contact - constant, yes, constant — with the Force, the Light, the Truth, the Power, and that ineffable delight of the supramental consciousness.” TM
