The West has made people too time-conscious, not knowing where they are going but speeding to get there because time is short.
Those who miss meditation miss the whole dance of life.
Passing through the fire of meditation, everything that is not your authentic reality, everything that is borrowed, will be burned away.
Look at the trees, look at the birds, look at the clouds, look at the stars-and if you have eyes you will be able to see that the whole existence is joyful.

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!
