The human life is nothing
But
A prison of misunderstandings.
How can we escape?
We can escape
Through the self-giving windows.

There was a time
When I loved you,
O my thought-world.
But now I love
The beauty of a silence-mind
And
The purity of a gratitude-heart.

One positive seed-thought
Has saved me,
My entire life:
My Lord Supreme
Will always love me
No matter what I do
Or what I say
Or even what I become.

When we embark on
Life’s inner journey.

My Lord, what can I do
To thank You?
“My child, to thank Me
Just smile and smile.”

Be an artist of the soul.
Then every day
You will be able to paint
A positive picture
Of your desire-freed life.

If you pray soulfully,
You will not be able
To expect the worst.
You can and you will
Only hope for the best.

If you give from your heart,
Then your offering will be
Not only unimaginable
But also indisputable.

Do not foresee
A frightening future.
Believe only
In an ever-enlightening present.

Our oldest friend,
Love,
Tells us and shows us
That it can be our eternal friend.
