Intimacy with one woman or one man is better than having many superficial relationships. Love is not a seasonal flower, it takes years to grow. And only when it grows does it go beyond biology, and start having something of the spiritual in it. Just being with many women or many men will keep you superficial — entertained maybe, but superficial; occupied certainly, but that occupation is not going to help in inward growth.
आणविक हतियार हाँस्दै नष्ट गर्न सकिन्छ, संगीत र ध्यान एउटै घटनाका दुई पक्ष हुन्. र संगीत बिना, ध्यानमा केही कमी छ; संगीत बिना, ध्यान थोरै सुस्त छ, निर्जीव. ध्यान बिना, संगीत केवल शोर हो — सामंजस्यपूर्ण, तर शोर. ध्यान बिना, संगीत एक मनोरञ्जन हो. र संगीत बिना, ध्यान अधिक र अधिक नकारात्मक हुन्छ, मृत्यु उन्मुख हुन जान्छ. त्यसैले संगीत र ध्यान सँगै जानुपर्छ भन्ने मेरो जोड छ. यसले नयाँ आयाम थपेको छ — दुबैलाई. दुवै यसबाट समृद्ध छन्.
Watch anything in the mind, and you are cut off. Watching is a sword. If a thought is moving in your mind, हामी पर्यवेक्षक हौं — and suddenly you will see the thought is there, तिमि यहाँ छौ, and there is no bridge left. Don’t watch, and you become identified with the thought, तिमी बन; छेउमा बस्नुहोस् र यसलाई हेर्नुहोस् र भन्नुहोस् 'म पहरादार हुँ, and you are not it. Mind possesses you because you have forgotten how to watch. Learn it.
When you encounter death, when you see it face to face, when you don’t avoid, when you don’t dodge, when you don’t escape, when you don’t create a cloud around you, when you face it, encounter it, the fact of death, suddenly you become aware that death is life. The deeper you move into death, the deeper you move in life because, Heraclitus says, the opposites meet and mingle, they are one.
Zen lives in the present. The whole teaching is: how to be in the present, how to get out of the past which is no more and how not to get involved in the future which is not yet, and just to be rooted, केन्द्रित, in that which is. The whole approach of Zen is of immediacy, but because of that it can bridge the past and the future. It can bridge many things: it can bridge the past and the future, it can bridge the East and the West, it can bridge body and soul. It can bridge the unbridgeable worlds: this world and that, the mundane and the sacred.
In my vision, education is nothing but another form of meditation. All that usually goes on in the name of education is secondary. The priority should be given to meditation — education of the inner. Unless you become acquainted with yourself, all your knowledge is useless.
In samadhi the ego is dropped. Now you don’t have any limitation, no definition, you are merged with the whole — but merged with the whole in a tremendous awareness. You are not asleep. Worries have disappeared, because worries exist only with the ego. So there are two ways to drop the worries — either become part of a group, or become part of the superconscious plane.
यो जीवनको ठूलो रहस्य मध्ये एक हो, कि जीवन एक आन्दोलन हो. र यदि तपाईं कतै अड्कनुभयो भने तपाईंले जीवनसँग सम्पर्क गुमाउनुहुन्छ.
My sannyas is not a character that will confine you. My sannyas is an awareness that will give you more and more freedom. And if one day you feel that my sannyas is making a prison for you, then drop out of it — that will be the true sannyas spirit. But never allow it to become an imprisonment.
हामीलाई लाग्छ कि हामी माया गर्छौं. र यदि तपाइँ सोच्नुहुन्छ कि तपाइँ माया गर्नुहुन्छ, त्यसपछि प्रेम हुने सम्भावना रहँदैन — किनभने यदि यो प्रेम हो, त्यसपछि सबै बन्द छ. नयाँ प्रयास गर्नुहोस्. अर्कोमा लुकेको वास्तविक अस्तित्व खोज्ने प्रयास गर्नुहोस्. कसैलाई पनि सामान्य रूपमा नलिनुहोस्. प्रत्येक व्यक्ति यस्तो रहस्य हो कि यदि तपाईं उसमा जानुभयो भने यो अनन्त छ. तर हामी अर्कोसँग बोर हुन्छौं — किनभने केवल परिधि, र सधैं परिधि.
