3926. TWO MISFORTUNES IN LIFE
There are only two misfortunes in life:
One is that we do not know
What to do,
And the other is that we cannot forget
What we have done.
3926. DVE NESREĆE U ŽIVOTU
Postoje samo dve nesreće u životu:
Jedna je da ne znamo
Šta da radimo,
A druga je da ne možemo da zaboravimo
Ono što smo uradili.
3936. DO YOU WANT TO CHANGE YOURSELF?
Do you want to change the world?
Then change yourself first.
Do you want to change yourself?
If so, remain completely silent
Inside the silence-sea.
3936. ŽELIŠ LI DA IZMENIŠ SEBE?
Želiš li da izmeniš svet?
Onda prvo izmeni sebe.
Želiš li da izmeniš sebe?
Ako je tako, ostani sasvim bez reči
U moru tišine.
3939. GOD WANTS ONE THING IN YOUR LIFE
God wants one thing in your life
And you want something else.
He wants you not only to see
The limitless in yourself,
But also to see yourself
As limitless.
And what do you want?
You want to see only the small limits
Of your feeble possibilities.
3939. BOG ŽELI JEDNO U TVOM ŽIVOTU
Bog želi jedno u tvom životu,
A ti želiš nešto drugo.
On želi ne samo da vidiš
Beskrajno u sebi,
Već i da vidiš sebe
Kao beskrajnog.
A šta ti želiš?
Ti želiš da vidiš samo uske granice
Tvojih slabašnih mogućnosti.
3940. SURRENDER YOURSELF
Surrender yourself
To the beauty of Truth,
To the purity of Light,
To the Divinity of God's
Transcendental Height.
3940. PREDAJ SEBE
Predaj sebe
Lepoti Istine,
Čistoti Svetlosti,
Svetosti Božje
Transcendentalne Visine.
3946. TO LIVE IN THE ETERNAL NOW
To live in the Eternal Now
A seeker needs
The beauty of a child's heart,
The purity of a saint's mind,
The divinity of a yogi's eyes.
3946. ŽIVETI U VEČNOM SAD
Da bi živeo u Večnom Sad,
Tragaocu je potrebna
Lepota dečjeg srca,
Čistota svečevog uma,
Božanstvenost jogijevih očiju.
3955. WHAT YOU NEED TO HAVE
Life has given you
What you unconsciously wanted to have:
Frustration.
You can consciously get from life
What you need to have:
Illumination.
3955. ONO ŠTO TREBA DA IMAŠ
Život ti je dao
Ono što si nesvesno želeo da imaš:
Frustraciju.
Svesno možeš da dobiješ od života
Ono što treba da imaš:
Prosvetljenje.
3966. I SHALL FORGIVE AND FORGET
I shall forgive and I shall forget.
I shall forgive my past unwillingness
To meditate on God.
I shall totally forget
My very, very old friend:
Ignorance.
3966. OPROSTIĆU I ZABORAVITI
Oprostiću i zaboraviću.
Oprostiću moju raniju nevoljnost
Da meditiram na Boga.
Zaboraviću potpuno
Mog vrlo, vrlo starog prijatelja:
Neznanje.
3972. DO YOU KNOW YOURSELF?
Do you know yourself?
No!
Do you know others?
No!
Why not do the first thing first?
Know yourself.
Then see what happens later on.
3972. POZNAJEŠ LI SEBE?
Poznaješ li sebe?
Ne!
Poznaješ li druge?
Ne!
Što ne bi učinio prvo ono najvažnije?
Spoznaj sebe.
Pa onda vidi šta ćeš dalje.
3975. TO GO BEYOND YOURSELF
To like your mind
Is the first step.
To love your heart
Is the second step.
To go beyond yourself
Is the third and last step.
3975. PREVAZIĆI SEBE
Voleti svoj um
Je prvi korak.
Voleti svoje srce
Je drugi korak.
Prevazići sebe
Je treći i poslednji korak.
3982. YOU ARE WORKING FOR OTHERS
You are working every day
For others.
You have no time to work
For your own self.
No wonder you and your frustration
Have become inseparable!
3982. RADIŠ ZA DRUGE
Radiš svakog dana
Za druge.
Nemaš vremena da radiš
Za svoje sopstveno ja.
Nije čudo da ste ti i frustracija
Postali nerazdvojni!
3991. OBSERVE YOUR ACTIONS
Observe your actions.
You will become brave.
Learn from your reactions.
You will become wise.
Surrender your actions and reactions
To God's Will.
You will become perfect.
3991. POSMATRAJ SVOJE AKCIJE
Posmatraj svoje akcije.
Postaćeš hrabar.
Uči od svojih reakcija.
Postaćeš mudar.
Predaj svoje akcije i reakcije
Božjoj Volji.
Postaćeš savršen.
3993. IF YOU WANT TO EXPAND YOUR MIND
If you want to expand your mind,
Then every day
Spend as much time as possible
With your heart.
3993. AKO ŽELIŠ DA PROŠIRIŠ SVOJ UM
Ako želiš da proširiš svoj um,
Onda svakog dana
Provedi što više vremena
Sa svojim srcem.
