... born. It has been coming from one house to another house, from one body to another body, but it is eternal in itself. So no birth, no death happens to it. It happens only to the outside of the house, which becomes tattered so it has to be renewed, or else you have to move into a new house." Ma Tzu said, "Buddha has no birth, no death. The very idea of birth and death is delusion. YOU ARE...
... methods by which you can throw all the air out of the body so you become a vacuum inside. You cannot remain in that vacuum for more than ten minutes, but ten minutes is enough to show that you can walk on water. If you are a vacuum you can walk on the water. But it takes almost eighteen to twenty years to learn that method of creating the vacuum. Once you have created the vacuum ... I have seen one man...
.... "And the bad news is ..." "But, Madam Goggle!" interrupts the old lady. "After such wonderful good news, what news could possibly be bad?" "Well," says Madam Goggle, "you will be going there tonight!" Nivedano ... (Drumbeat) Be silent ... Close your eyes ... and feel your body to be completely frozen. This is the right moment to enter in your inner...
... being. This is the state of a Gautam Buddha, the space of all the buddhas. At this moment you are no more, only the buddha is. And the buddha has only one quality: witnessing. Witness that you are not the body. Witness that you are not the mind. And witness that you are only the witness. This pure witnessing opens all the closed doors of existence and life, of song and dance, of the ultimate...
.... Suddenly, flowers from the tree started falling over Manjushri. The tree must have been blossoming with hundreds of flowers, and they were showering like rain. And Buddha told the whole ten thousand disciples to look at what was happening. All looked - - they could not believe their eyes. Why were all the flowers suddenly falling on Manjushri's head, his body, his lap? He was almost covered with flowers...
... hair like Bridgette Bardot and tits like Samantha Fox. And eyes like Elizabeth Taylor and an ass like Marilyn Monroe." The genie takes a long look at Prunella and says, "Honey, please put me back in the bottle." Nivedano ... (Drumbeat) (Gibberish) Nivedano ... (Drumbeat) Be silent ... Close your eyes ... and feel your body to be completely frozen. This is the right moment to turn in...
.... Gather all your energy ... and with a total consciousness, rush towards your center of being. The center of your being is just two inches below the navel, inside your body. All that you need is an urgency, as if it is going to be the last moment of your life. With great urgency and intensity, rush towards the center. Faster and faster ... Deeper and deeper ... As you are coming close to your center, a...
... called ecstasy. Out of this ecstasy is all celebration. Centered in your very being, you are no more. You have come to the seed -- the bodhisattva has dissolved into the buddha. The face of Gautam Buddha is the original face of every human being. The only quality Gautam Buddha has is witnessing. Witness that you are not the body. Witness that you are not the mind. And finally, witness that you are only...
... see? If a man can come in the middle of the night to take five rupees, if we need he will send somebody to give money to us - you don't be worried. You mistrusted, you distrusted - that was my restlessness." He became calm again. He covered his face with the blanket, and it is said immediately he left the body, in utter silence, in utter grace. That small thing was hindering... something was...
... experiences, they start riding on each other's waves; a tidal wave is created and they become complementary to each other. You may be missing something; it may have happened to some-body else - his insight may bring a light to you. You may have been doing something wrong, and somebody else has done something else, and it has helped, it has worked. Let this be so for my sannyasins too. Stop talking of...
... whose presence this process is triggered, and you start growing in these two dimensions of love. The ultimate crescendo of these two loves is freedom - freedom from misery, freedom from mind, freedom from body, freedom from coming again into the world - freedom from ALL kinds of imprisonments. That freedom is the goal. Keep the goal always in your vision. And, slowly slowly, go on dropping all that...
... it takes roots, it can be forever. It can be a lifelong involvement. Love needs intimacy, and only when you are intimate does the other become a mirror. When you meet sexually with a woman or a man, you have not met at all; in fact, you avoided the soul of the other person. You just used the body and escaped, and the other used your body and escaped. You never became intimate enough to reveal each...
... that you have become a man just by having a human body is wrong, and that idea has been the cause of tremendous mischief down the ages. Man is born just as an opportunity, as an occasion. And very few people attain: a Jesus, a Buddha, a Mohammed, a Bahaudin. Very few people, few and far between, really become man - when they become full of light and there is no darkness left, when there is no...
... cell of your body resounds it, every part of your being dances in tune with it. Sufis are not liked very much by the Mohammedans; they cannot be. The real religious persons are never liked by the people who have created a false consolatory religion for themselves. How can you like a person who calls your toy a toy? He destroys your joy. You cannot forgive a person who calls a spade a spade. It is...
... can always find ways to do whatsoever he wants to do. He is clever enough - he can always find jargon and can always find a loophole. His is the way of the legal expert. If he wants to do something wrong he will find a way. If he does not want to do something right, he will find a w ay. He's never in the wrong, he always supports himself; he has a great body of knowledge to support him. He is...
.... The prostitute had no mind. She had lived a very simple existence of selling her body. She knew nothing of the scriptures, she had no time to read them. She could not have the ego of a virtuous person. How could she have? She was simply humble, crying. She couldn't have any ego, and that is the door to the divine. THE PROSTITUTE SAID, "ALAS, I HAVE NEITHER INTELLECTUAL TRAINING NOR SPECIAL...
... he was almost mad. One day he simply committed suicide, he shot himself in the head. The story goes that even after that he could not sleep. The mind continued, because the mind is not the body. I love the story. Insomnia is such a thing: you can commit suicide and it will be with you. You may become a ghost but you will not be able to sleep, because mind is your master. The mastery of the mind is...
... possible. He's flowing towards you, but you are never at home. You are never MOJUD, you are never present. There is an ancient Tibetan parable that says a man goes on praying to God, "Come to me," and cries and cries, and God comes. But by the time God reaches there the man is not there; he has moved. And sometimes even if he is there and God comes, only his body is there. Now the body cannot...
... marriage - but it is deeper than the marriage that you know about. In an ordinary marriage two bodies meet At the most, if one is very fortunate, two minds meet - that is rare. The marriage that sannyas is, is not of the body not of the mind, but of the souls. Two beings meet. To be with the Master is to be in deep love with the Master, to be surrendered, to be open, to go with him wherever he is going...
... body and spoiling the whole meditation. And the scholar had to go and take a bath again in the Ganges and again start his prayer. So he was very happy that he got rid of this foolish man. Who was this? If Jesus comes to a Christian who is pondering on his Bible would the Christian recognise Jesus? If Mahavir comes to a Jaina who is on his fast and doing his mantra NAMOKAR NAMOKAR, would he be able to...
... has been a nightmare. You have hurt me very deeply.' Buddha was standing there. The father was very angry He went on shouting at him until finally he cooled down a little Then Buddha said, 'Sir, you don't see that I am not the same person who left the palace. Look at me. I am a totally new being. I am not the same person who left the palace, who used to be your son. My body may look the same but...
... can never share, no delight ever enters his life. In this world it is hard to find a man more dead than a miser. Even the deadest of corpses is not as dead as a miser. I have heard: a Scotsman died, and the doctor was called to confirm that he was dead. When the doctor arrived to examine the body he simply put his hand in the man's pocket, withdrew it and said, "This man is absolutely dead...
...." The people who were watching said, "This is a novel way of examining a dead body. We have seen many methods, but what is this?" The doctor replied, "Put your hand in a Scotsman's pocket, and if there is a flicker of life in him he won't be able to lie there, not even if his pocket is empty!" The Scotsman is the most miserly in Europe, so even if he were at his last breath he...
... returned home and asked his wife to fetch him a blanket because he was feeling very feverish. His wife covered him with many blankets, and he lay there, his body trembling. His wife asked him, "How has this come on so suddenly? You were fine when you left here an hour ago. How is it that you are now in such a high fever?" Mohammed said, "This fever is of a strange kind, as though my whole...
... naturally, if you want any confession they will have to confess. If you want the woman to accept that she is a witch, on traction she is going to accept it because there is a point where she sees,'Now my hands are going to be pulled off my body, my legs are going to be pulled off my body. It is better to say, "Yes, I am a witch," and get finished with this traction.' But once she has accepted...
... are so many people and you are in competition with everybody... and you are. Somebody has a beautiful face, somebody has beautiful hair, somebody has a beautiful, proportionate body, somebody has a great intellect, somebody is a painter, somebody is a poet.... How are you going to manage? All this, and you alone to compete? You will drive yourself nuts - and that is what all of humanity has done...
... more. And you have to come tomorrow to see me." And Farid was punished, beaten. I could not believe it: he was a professor at the university, a well- known scholar who was a guide to many research students working on Mohammedanism, on Urdu literature, the KORAN. Burhanuddin had a few hooligans there - they gave Farid a good beating. He showed me his body; all over his body were signatures of the...
... when I am talking to you: unawares, you start moving closer to me. Your physical bodies remain where they are - and leave them there! - but you start moving towards me. Perhaps you will understand what I am saying, because I can see - when somebody starts moving towards me, I can see - the body is left behind and the person has come very close to me. It is in that moment you feel afire, ignited. But...
