The aspiring soul which he embodies is the lover in him. And the transcendental Self which he reveals from within is his Beloved.
To free our body from fear what we need is the glorious experience of the soul.
My mind wants to interpret All my dreams. My heart wants to love All my dreams. My soul wants to fulfil All my dreams.
Each aspirant has to be a divine soldier. He must consciously and constantly use his divine energy to drill himself into a liberated soul.
When we meditate, what we actually do is enter into a vacant, calm, still, silent mind. We go deep within and approach our true existence, which is our soul. When we live in the soul, we feel that we are actually meditating spontaneously
What we call our joy, God calls our perfection. Each human being has come into the world with the message of perfection. Each human being will one day realize the highest Truth. Each human being is destined to be fulfilled. It is the birthright of our soul.

My soul-bird loves my body-cage Only when it is kept fit, Pure and absolutely immaculate.
Character is blazing sunshine in the soul's abode, the body.
At last He is healed of his self-doubt. Now what is happening ? He is awakening To his souls ecstasy-sun.
