永远记住它: the deeper yourlaughter, 更深的将成为你的祈祷. 如果你会跳舞, 你进了神社, 你已经接近上帝了. 是的, dancing is the only way to reach the divine.
If you are not the body, how can you be a man or a woman? If you are not the body, how can you be white or black? If you are not even the mind, how can you be Christian or Hindu? If you are only awareness, then you are only awareness and nothing else.
I am being blamed all over the world, in articles, that I am a nonserious man. They think they are condemning me — it is a compliment. They don’t understand that, to me, seriousnessis sickness. And to be nonserious, to be playful, to take everything as fun is, 据我说, the only authentic religiousness.
Look at trees, 那些鸟儿, the animals, the stars. There seems to be tremendous joy. 生活并不严肃. Life is very, very playful.
The function of the master is to help you to find out what your real work is, what your type is. If you cannot find out, take the help of a master. Take the help of the master to find out what exactly is meditation and love. He will show you the path, but then you have to follow and you have to follow totally. You cannot follow it in fragments, in parts; you have to go utterly into it. Then transformation is possible instantly. In a single moment one can become a buddha or a christ. 记住, it is only you who can do this miracle, nobody else can do it for you.
爱只有在冥想之后才能存在, not before it.
I am immensely thankful to every person who has come to me to share my joy, to share my being, to be part of my celebration.
REMEMBER remain alert that you don t get too much attached to the accidental — 一切都是偶然的,除了你的意识. 除了你的意识, 一切都是偶然. 痛苦和快乐, 成功与失败, 名誉和诽谤 — 一切都是偶然. 只有你的见证意识是必不可少的. 坚持下去! 越来越扎根于它. 不要将你的执着传播到世俗的事物上.
Life is not the end, it is just a discipline to learn the art of dying. But you are afraid, you are scared, at the very word death you start trembling. That means you have not yet known life, 因为生命永不消亡. Life cannot die.
继续晨跑,记住你不是它 你不是步行者而是观察者 慢慢地你会尝到它的滋味 — 这是一种味道, 它来得很慢. 它是世界上最微妙的现象; 你不能着急得到它. 需要耐心. 这真的是在推迟生活, 品尝食物, 还记得你是守望者. In the beginning it will create a little trouble in you because you have not done these two things together. In the beginning, 我知道, if you start watching you will feel like stopping eating, or if you start eating you will forget watching.
Meditation opens the door of all the mysteries of existence, of all the secrets of existence. Meditation is the master key which opens all the locks, and existence becomes an open book for you.
You have to approach truth through fearlessness, but if you are hiding your fear behind religiousness then it will be very difficult to shatter it. You are greedy, miserly, but you go on saying that you live a very simple life. If you are hiding behind the rationalization of simplicity, then it is very difficult to see that you are a miser.
You are gods in exile. Only by witnessing will you remember who you are. Then all misery disappears, all poverty disappears. You are the very kingdom of God.
Delight, 请享用. God is not a thing, it is an attitude, an attitude of celebration and festivity. Drop sadness. He is so close by; 舞蹈! Drop long faces, it is sacrilege — because He is so close by. Forget your childish miseries and worries; He is so close by. Don’t go on brooding about immaterial things; He is so close by. Allow Him to hold your hand. He has been waiting for you for long.
To cling to a thing is to cling to something which is below you. And if you go on clinging to things which are below you, how can you soar high? It is as if you are clinging to rocks and trying to fly in the sky. Or you are carrying rocks on the head and trying to climb Everest. You have to throw them. You have to throw those rocks. You will have to unburden yourself.
