When you are different the whole world is different. It is not a question of creating a different world. It is only a ques of creating a different you.
In this world, the greatest courage is to drop the mind aside. The bravest man is who can see the world without the barrier of the mind, just as it is. It is tremendously different, utterly beautiful. There is nobody who is inferior and there is nobody who is superior – there are no distinctions.
Transcendence means going beyond duality. Attachment means remaining within duality.
Now man must learn to live without ideologies religious, political or otherwise. When the mind is not tethered to any ideology, it is free to move to new understandings. And in that freedom flowers all that is good and all that is beautiful.
Death is more important than life. Life is just the trivial, just the superficial; death is deeper. Through death you grow to the real life, and through life you only reach death and nothing else.
Meaning is man-created. And because you constantly look for meaning, you start to feel meaninglessness.
If somebody asks, “What is a dance?” how can you define it? But you can dance and you can know the inner feel of it.
When movement becomes ecstatic, then this is dance. When the movement is so total there is no ego, then it is dance.
Don’t move the way fear makes you move. Move the way love makes you move. Move the way joy makes you move.
Bring everything up to the surface. Accept your humanity, your animality. Whatsoever is there, accept it without any condemnation. Acceptance is transformation, because through acceptance awareness becomes possible.
When you have a heartfelt belly laugh, all parts of your being – the physiological, the pyschological, the spiritual – they all vibrate in one single tune. They all vibrate in harmony!
There are a few activities which are immensely valuable: laughter is one of these activities. Singing, dancing, are also of the same quality, but laughter is the quickest.
Laughter is the real religion. Everything else is just metaphysics.
Start and finish your day with laughter, and you will see, by and by, in between these two more and more laughter starts happening. And the more laughing you become, the more religious.
Love and laughter go together; and laughter is one of the greatest medicines.
Laughter is more sacred than prayer, dancing more spiritual than chanting mantras, loving existence more cosmic than going to a church.
You are not accidental. The world needs you. Without you, something will be missing in existence and nobody can replace it.
Meditation is a process of getting rid of the whole past, of getting rid of all diseases, of getting rid of all the pus that has gathered in you. It is painful, but it is cleansing, and there is no other way to cleanse you.
If you meditate, sooner or later you will come upon love. If you meditate deeply, sooner or later you will start feeling a tremendous love arising in you that you have never known before.
Mind only thinks, meditation lives.
