... deeper realms of The Heart Sutra. Meditate over these sutras - meditate with love, with sympathy, not with logic and reasoning. If you go to these sutras with logic and reasoning you will kill their spirit. Don't dissect them. Try to understand them as they are, and don't bring your mind - your mind will be an interference. If you can look at these sutras without your mind, great clarity is going to...
... experience. People are ordinarily closed; they are not open to experience. Before they experience anything they already have prejudices about it. They don't want to experiment, they don't want to explore. This is sheer stupidity! A man comes and wants to meditate, and if I tell him to go and dance, he says, "What will be the outcome of dancing? How can meditation come out of dancing?" I ask him...
... are you talking about?" said the rabbi. "This was yesterday!" Don't be too worried. You have repressed enough. Now go into it. Accept it as a gift of God, otherwise repression leads to perversions. This small story... meditate over it. There is this old Italian, see, who runs a pasta factory, and his three daughters work for him. One day they are all sitting around making the pasta...
..., cannot meditate, cannot pray, because if he really prays, then everything fits -- then the ego disappears. Ego means a selfconsciousness. When something is wrong, only then is selfconsciousness there. When everything is right, there is no selfconsciousness. Look to the common, watch for the common -- don't try to be exceptional. But we want to be exceptional. People come to me. If I tell them, "...
... are sitting with closed eyes... doubt closing your eyes, doubt closing your heart, doubt -- as if you are asleep, intoxicated in doubt. Karl Marx has said: "Religion is the opium for the masses." Exactly the opposite is the case: doubt is the opium, not religion. Through doubt you miss the truth. Through trust you allow it to reach you, and you allow yourself to reach it. Meditate more and...
....... Would it be possible to lie down? Is there space enough for the meditators to lie down? First understand, then we will do the night meditation. The morning meditation is to be done sitting. Life arises, wakes up in the morning, so it is helpful to meditate sitting up. The night meditation has to be done lying in bed, before you go to sleep. After the meditation, just go to sleep silently. This is the...
... absolutely innocent - he is just doing his job. It is nothing to do with you. He is just barking, so you have to let him bark. It is not a disturbance to you unless you make it a disturbance. It becomes a disturbance only when you resist, when you want the dog to stop barking - the trouble begins there. The dog is barking - it should bark. We are meditating - we should meditate. There is no conflict...
... if you become alert to the whole body. While hungry, why not meditate a little? - there is no hurry. While hungry just close your eyes and meditate on the hunger, on how the body is feeling. You may have lost contact, because our hunger is less bodily, more mental. You eat every day at one o'clock. You look at the watch; it is one - so then you feel hunger. And the clock may not be right. If...
... LOVE. I. 105. jo disai so to hai nahin THAT WHICH YOU SEE IS NOT: AND FOR THAT WHICH IS, YOU HAVE NO WORDS. UNLESS YOU SEE, YOU BELIEVE NOT: WHAT IS TOLD YOU, YOU CANNOT ACCEPT. HE WHO IS DISCERNING KNOWS BY THE WORD; AND THE IGNORANT STANDS GAPING. SOME CONTEMPLATE THE FORMLESS, AND OTHERS MEDITATE ON FORM; BUT THE WISE MAN KNOWS THAT BRAHMA IS BEYOND BOTH. THAT BEAUTY OF HIS IS NOT SEEN OF THE EYE...
... know, and we know the same thing. We looked into each other's eyes - and it was finished. what is the point of repeating? It would be a repetition, and meaningless." When somebody knows, even a word is not needed - or even a word is enough. SOME CONTEMPLATE THE FORMLESS, AND OTHER MEDITATE ON FORM; BUT THE WISE MAN KNOWS THAT BRAHMA IS BEYOND BOTH. A few think God has form - SAGUNA; a few think...
... SANG AMONG THE BLOSSOMS." A very simple anecdote, but with great significance. Meditate over it. A PUZZLED MONK ONCE SAID TO FUKETSU ... From where do you become puzzled? From the mind. The mind is always dividing things, and then cannot figure it out. Once you divide, there is conflict and confusion. How can it be? Once you divide -- this is good, this is bad -- then the question arises: "...
... silent. You deny both? Then what is the possibility? FUKETSU ANSWERED, "IN SOUTHERN CHINA, IN THE SPRING, WHEN I WAS ONLY A LAD, AH! HOW THE BIRDS SANG AMONG THE BLOSSOMS." Now, this is very irrelevant. What the disciple is asking and what the Master is saying is not related at all, but it is related in a nonmind way. Meditate over it, how it is related in a nonmind way. He has said many...
... bring one, you invite one, the other follows automatically as a shadow of it. It depends on you. If you want to follow the path of meditation, become empty. Don't bother about love - it will come of its own accord. Or, if you find it very difficult to meditate, then love, then become a lover, and meditations and emptiness?s will follow you. This is how it should be because there are two types of human...
... created. Buddha says: Fast-moving thoughts create an illusion, as if there is some center to them, as if they are related to one thing. They are not related, they are without roots - like clouds. When you meditate you will understand that each single thought is an individual thought, not related to another. Between the two is the emptiness of your being. They come and go, but they come and go so fast...
... way. So there are just a few small things he can try to find out if you are really in hypnosis. Then he can tell you about meditation: whenever you sit to meditate, take a bath, make a special room for your meditation. Don't do anything in that room so that it remains vibrating with your meditativeness. Burn incense, bring roses and flowers, sit silently. Close your eyes, watch your thoughts and you...
... are ready on the other end to receive it, hypnosis will happen automatically. And with hypnosis, because my insistence is continuously on meditation, you will find it easier to meditate here with me than anywhere else -- in the beginning at least. Later on, when you have developed on your own and you are more confident that you can fly in the silent spaces of your heart, then you will be able to...
... performance?" If only we could drown ourselves even for a moment into an act for the sake of the act without any reward I Then the act becomes meditation. But, we even meditate for a purpose. People come to me and ask, "Will meditation help us to become successful in life? Meditation, and success in the mundane world? They say, "Our financial condition is bad. By meditating shall we attain...
... the 'grace of God?'" Meditation also becomes an investment, a part of their business. It is impossible for us to conceive that meditation has no connection whatsoever with anything purposive. It is wrong even to say that meditation leads to bliss, because one who meditates to achieve bliss cannot meditate at all.
