In the darkness of the night,
In a very dense forest,
A tiger strides, stealthily, stalking its prey.
He hides and waits.
And at the most unexpected moment,
Leaps and victimizes the prey.
Do not be a victim.
Do not be the prey.
Be alert, at all times!
The tiger is nothing but your own
Join your hands and pray to Me,
Pray to Me that I am always there.
When life takes its course of its ups and downs,
Pray to Me that I am always there.
When you are lost and there seems no way,
Pray to Me that I am always there.
Listen to your footsteps as you walk.
You will hear a footstep closel
I stay awake when you are asleep.
I watch over you and make sure
That you are protected.
Then with a smile on My face
And My hands on your brow,
I wake you up as a loving mother wakes her baby.
I make sure that your eyes are open
And your senses are stable.
Once I am sure you are "widely awakened",
Your love for Me makes your life complete.
My mission successful,
Our goal is the same.
So shed those tears for Me,
And cleanse yourself.
Break the “I” and bend it,
And end this life with Me.

Do not dwell as to what has happened in the past,
And worry about the future.
Concentrate on the present and dedicate to Me.
With such constant spiritual sadhana,
Your past karmas get negated
Or lessened with My grace,
And the future is automatically taken care of.
The present moment, ever

When you yearn for Me constantly.

Come to Me as an innocent newborn child,
Accept Me truly as your mother.
Bring with you purity and sincerity
To learn from Me.
I in turn will teach a life,
A life beyond,

Towards a light,
In which you and I merge as one.

When I speak soft sweet words of praise to you,
These are the words,
Of encouragement you want to hear from Me.
When I say harsh words of criticism to you,
Those are the words,
Of improvement you want Me to point to you.
I only utter, that what you expect Me to.
I am your thoughts,

Science is the study of laws of nature.
It is a limited study of limited applications.
Science makes you recognize the laws of nature.
But does it explain what lies behind these forces?
Can God be explained by Science?

To you, one devotee may appear
More superior than another.
But to Me all are equal, all are God.
The difference only lies
In the level of realizing the self.

Or My picture, or any shrine,

You cannot own Me or possess Me.
You may dislike one or hate another,
But My love for all remains the same.
My ways to correct each one of you may differ,
But I do not harm

To show you by example as to how to love.

This love is the most powerful antidote.
It heals and it soothes.
It strengthens your will power to face it.
It even cures instantaneously

My love for you.
Have compassion to those who need.

Make service a part of your life.
A part of you, as if it were your breath to live.
A part of you, as if it was your food to nourish.
A part of you, as if it was your daily hygiene
To cleanse you.
A part of you, as if it were your rest, to relax you.
Service is something not done for others.

One mind, several thoughts.
One tongue, several languages.
One pair of hands, continual action.
One pair of eyes, a lot of dreams.
One pair of ears, different kinds of music.
One pair of feet, several paths.
One heart, various forms of love.
One God, present in each and every one.

The outer eyes, the inner eyes.
The outer eyes are merely a tool,
For you to see things as they appear.
They are fooled by the outward shine
They can be diseased and have a cataract.
They lose their vision with age.
They become blurry and unreliable.

DEAR DIVINE DIDI AND DEVOTEES,

4)For treading devotional path one needs only love.
5)It is possible to see GOD dwells in every being.
6)Piety is not weakness but strength.
Swami says :
There are three things which are immensely pleasing to to the Lord:
1. A tongue that never indulges in falsehood.
2. A body that is not tainted by causing harm to others.
3. A mind that is free from attachment and hatred.
These three constitute the Triple Purity(Thrika
