... snowflakes into the thin air of silence. Still, a certain space will remain throbbing within you; that is your truth, that is your Zen. And to jump from your body, from your mind to that inner space, unspoiled, untraveled, untrodden by anybody, you have taken the quantum leap. This quantum leap makes you a master in your own right. HYAKUJO ASKED OBAKU WHERE HE HAD COME FROM. OBAKU SAID, "FROM...

... complete. Rupesh, give the drum... (Drumbeat) You fall dead. Utterly dead. I am not telling you to stop your breathing; your body can go on breathing. You be in, deeper and deeper in! Rupesh, the last drum... (Drumbeat) Everybody has to come back to life. This is resurrection! One special beat for the guest gorilla. (Drumbeat) No, Rupesh! Gorilla cannot understand it, do it totally! (Drumbeat) (RUPESH...
... is what makes this type of knowledge esoteric. This is what mystery means: one knows and still remains ignorant. Money continues to circulate, just like blood in the body. Knowledge cannot be circulated like money; this knowledge cannot be transferred. Then what to do? What should the master do with the disciple? The master only prays, "Give us strength. We should endeavor together, we should...
... great security, safety against dangers, disease, sickness, death. When Voltaire used to go out of his house, he would come home almost naked, because crowds would follow him, tearing his clothes -- and not only his clothes, he would get scratched on the body. He had to ask for police protection if he wanted to go to the railway station or to go to some other place. Without police protection it was...

... had become a nightmare. But when I became nobody, then I started feeling great despair that I had lost my respect, my name, my fame." And he does not say in his notes that this was what he wanted, to be nobody. He had become nobody now, but it was not a joy, it was a defeat. He wrote, "I'm dying a defeated man." And the day he died, only four persons carried his body to the graveyard...

.... Of the four persons, one was his dog and three were his neighbors -- and those three had to carry the body because otherwise it would start rotting and the neighborhood would become a hell to live in. Somehow he had to be thrown into a grave. So in fact the only person who lovingly followed was the dog. And this was the man who was followed by thousands of people wherever he went. Pankaja, your...
... says that the body has no need to die; maybe they have come very close to the Tree of Knowledge and to the Tree of Immortality. Science says the body can go on renewing itself. If it can renew itself for seventy years, why not seven hundred years? Or if some parts become useless, then they can be replaced. Sooner or later science is going to replace many of your parts. Then it will be very simple. If...

... at that moment. For example, what kind of body you will have, what kind of hair you will have, how long you will live. Those two cells meeting and merging decide it; they are programmed. Their meeting becomes a new program: you will live seventy years, eighty years.... If that program can be changed -- for example if they can be told that you will live seven hundred years -- just a little change...
... East does not mean by evolution that a monkey becomes a man, but the consciousness of a monkey may be born into a human being. It is not the body that evolves; it is the consciousness within that goes on taking higher forms, goes on reaching towards higher peaks. Man up to now is the highest peak of all that the animals have been trying to be, unconsciously. This is the fortunate situation for man...

... nothing," says the American, swallowing his beer and wiping his lips. "Our nuclear submarines can stay under water for one whole year!" "Hey," says the Polack sailor, spilling his beer. "That is really nothing. Our submarines dive down and never come up!" Nivedano... (Drumbeat) (Gibberish) (Drumbeat) Be silent. Close your eyes, feel your body to be completely frozen...

... your eternal reality. Flowers will start showering on you, the whole existence will rejoice your silence. Just be a witness, from the center, and you have arrived home. To make it clear, Nivedano... (Drumbeat) Relax. Just remember that you are only a witness. The body is not you, the mind is not you. You are just a mirror. And as you settle down into a mirror-like witnessing, the whole existence...
.... Krishna knows very well that nothing is killed by killing. The only way to finish a wicked person is to help transform him into a righteous person, into a sage. Killing will never finish him, it will only result in a change of body for him. Killing will not make a difference, he will continue to be wicked in his next life. The wicked can come to an end only if they are helped to become righteous. There...

..., apart. So the minimum number required is three. With three. creation and growth becomes possible. It may be more than three, but never less. However, these three are not really three; they are different forms of one and the same energy, because reality is basically one. And because of this we created the statue of trimurti - one body with three faces. We did not create the statues of these gods...

... separately, one apart from another; that would have been a mistake. They are not really separate, they are one. If they are separate entities they would need something else to join them together and that would lead to a process of infinite regression. Therefore we created the trimurti - three faces in one body, representing the one elan vital which gives birth to life, develops and sustains it and finally...
..., it moves into depth and height. That is the meaning of Jesus' cross: time crossing eternity, or eternity crossing time. Jesus' hands are time, they move into past and future, crucified in time, resurrected into eternity. His being is vertical - everybody's being is vertical, only the body, the hands, the material part of you, is horizontal. Knowledge creates future, future creates worry. The more...

..., he must have become a man of knowledge - and he had become one. He came, he touched his father's feet, but it was just a formality. How can a man who has become so egoistic bow down? The father said, Swetaketu, I see your body bent, but not you. And what misfortune has happened to you? Why do you look so haughty? A man of knowing becomes humble, Swetaketu. Have you heard anything about that One...

... that 'here sits a man.' They started living there. What were these men doing? Creepers crawled on their body thinking it was a good support. So unmoving, what were they doing there? They were not doing anything. Closing all their windows they were looking at the splendour of splendours, they were looking at themselves - and it is such a tremendous mystery and such a beautiful phenomenon that nothing...
... Einstein would listen, because he had to listen. But once in a while he would raise a question which would be scientific. For example she would be comparing the face of a woman with the full moon, and he would say, "Wait. This is going too far. A woman's face, and you are comparing it to the moon? A woman's body cannot carry it, it is impossible. Secondly, what beauty do you see in the moon? No eyes...

... there is no light? It simply proves the limitations of the ear. I dropped the word "limitation" because it is humiliating. I used to say to my scientist friends in the university, "It is specialization, forget the word 'limitation'. The eyes are specialized organs to see; ears, specialized organs to hear. And you will be surprised that it is the same body, consisting of the same...

... one side, never changing sides. This is strange." Buddha said, "This is not strange. There is no need to move. When I was unconscious I also used to toss and turn - that was the mental turmoil affecting the body. Now if I want to change my posture I can, but there is no inner necessity. And I don't want to, I love this posture." People have been asking me how I go on sitting with my...
... know the universal, the man who becomes so awakened that he is no longer part of any geography, any body, any mind, he is just pure awareness .... In that state there is nothing right, nothing wrong. The man of that state will also have to function on lower levels. Hungry, he will have to eat; thirsty, he will have to drink. He will have to live in some kind of society, with some kind of people. The...

... meeting that used to happen every morning. He said to the rich man, "Do one thing: tomorrow morning, when Kabir and his followers go to the Ganges to take their morning bath before they start singing and dancing, just on the crossroads hang this body." The rich man who owned the house said, "But what is this going to do?" The servant said, "You simply do this - there is no harm...

...," and the body was hung at the crossroad. As Kabir came dancing, singing, after the bath, Kamal immediately raised his hand and said, "Stop all this nonsense!" That's how he was recognized as Kamal - certainly kamal! And they asked Kabir, "Do you recognize him?" He said, "Of course, because his head is in my house; I cut it off myself." The rich man could not believe...
... the body is the same, but what about the soul? What about the innermost core of the bird? Can it be the same in the cage and in the open sky on the wing? This is a little bit delicate, but not beyond intelligence: it is no longer the same bird. The same happens to truth. The moment you put it into language, the whole freedom, the whole beauty, the whole authenticity is gone. Truth said is truth dead...

... heard about a drunkard who comes to his home in the middle of the night, but he is so drunk, it is a miracle that he reaches his house. Not really a miracle, just an old habit of the body: the poor body, simply like a robot, mechanically brings him home. But he cannot recognize that this is his home. A woman opens the door; she is his mother. He falls at the feet of the old woman and says, "Help...
