Consciousness and the Body

You think the body makes the consciousness? No. Consciousness has made the body.

Pause

Just singing is not sufficient. One can just go on singing. But in
between the songs, a few moments of silence, of depth, of experiencing
the bliss of the infinite---that is very essential.

Life Begins

Life begins when we step out of the mind. How do we step out of the
small mind? Through samadhi.

different kind of tears

Devotion is very beautiful. A student comes to a master, a teacher, a
guru, with tears in his eyes, there is so much problems. And when he
leaves he carries the same tears, but the quality of the tear is
different; it�s of gratitude. Still tears flow, but they are of
gratitude, of love.

Getting Stuck

For a few moments in our life, we become intense, we become 100%. Our
mind, consciousness, becomes like one integrated glow. And these
moments are very precious things.

feversishness

The feverishness in us destroys the joy.

Change

Feelings change, thoughts change, ideas change, body is undergoing
changes all the time. But the thirst deep within us is for something
that is not changing, that is eternal, that is always, that is the
same.

Expressing Love

When we express love too much, then also it disappears, dies out. It's
like when you keep the seed on the surface of the soil, not a little
deep inside, it doesn't grow.

Observe the nature

Just observe the nature---how big this world is, how big the universe
is. Nothing is permanent here.

When you walk

In the morning, when you walk, become aware of your infinite nature.
You are like the sky. You are infinity. And walk with that infinity
nature. Move through this world like a white cloud, unstained,
untouched.

Destroying Sins

A few moments of the experience of Divine Love can destroy all the
sins, all the guilt, all the negativity---not only in and around the
person, but all over.

Getting Baked

Everything is changing. And this is all there only to heat you up, to
bake you. You are baked in joy, and you are baked in sorrow. You are
baked in this event, and you are baked in that event. So everything in
the world bakes you, heats you up. And if you put your finger deeper
into it, you will get burned. So move lightly.

Is there any end to desires?

All these different desires for experiences, for living, for knowing,
they arise and they get fulfilled and they move. Is there anybody who
has not fulfilled any desire? Or is there anybody who has fulfilled
all the desires? Is there any end for it?

questions, questions, questions

Much is done in silence. If the communication is just on the level of
words, many questions will come, and answers are given, and many more
questions will come, and more answers will come, and many
questions---it is an endless exercise.

Believe in your experiences

Though your experiences of silence, of transcendence, of the Self, of
the Divine are only for a few seconds, a few minutes, a few hours,
maybe---but believe in them. Believe in them. That is your true
nature.

come to source

Bring the mind, which is all over the place, back to its source.

Upanishad

Sitting close to the Master---that is "Upanishad"--- you catch on to
many things. You catch on to the inexpressible. You catch on something
that is indescribable.

Maintain your awareness

Maintaining your consciousness, your awareness, while being in joy,
while being extremely happy, is very difficult, and that is ecstasy,
that is samadhi.

Fall in Love with a Flower

If you just fall in love with a flower, you go on appreciating it and
go deep into that, and you will see that flower dissolves into the
formless. You will see the space which is hiding deep inside that
flower.

Living the Mystery

This creation, this very life, is a mystery, and the mystery cannot be understood. But it could be lived in its totality.

God is not�

God is not the object of sight; you can never see God. God is not an
object of hearing. God is not an object of smelling or tasting. God
cannot be perceived through your senses, nor through the mind.

Love and Faith

Love transcends logic. Love depends on faith. You cannot say, "I have
a lot of love, but I have no faith." It is impossible. Love carries
along with it, faith. And Divine Love [carries] infinite faith.

The Real Master

Servant is the real master. Who becomes a master, is one who serves. God has been serving you day and night. He takes care of every thing for you.

Love and respect

Once respect is lost, even love is not tasty.

Caught up in our own

We see so many people dying; we see so much of misery. We remain insensitive. Why? Because there is no silence. We are caught up in our own little hankering, cravings, and aversions. The mind is filled with its own noise.

Uninterrupted

Uninterrupted sharing---that grows into feeling the presence of the Divine all the time, uninterruptedly.

Be Passionate for the Highest

If you are passionate, be passionate for the highest, the most wonderful, the most beautiful. Be passionate for this entire creation-everything is so beautiful

many layers

You think you know the world and "This is it." That is the biggest problem. This is not just one world; there are many layers in this world.

Stop Resisting the storm

The storm is also part of Nature. Stop resisting the storm. Taking it, gulping it in its totality, going deep into it, you see, it is nothing: "It is just created out of myself, my mind, my consciousness."

Living the mystery

This creation, this very life, is a mystery, and the mystery cannot be understood. But it could be lived in its totality.

The Whole Universe

The whole universe is one body.

Fleeting Thoughts

Many times, about what you want you are not clear, because you have never looked into yourself. You are swayed away by fleeting thoughts and fleeting emotions, fleeting desires.

Giving

When you give things to people, it brings back something to you---that is some good vibrations. And that makes you happy. If you are very unhappy, and that day you give something, give some gifts to somebody who is needy, you will see your consciousness will change, shift.

Impatience

Patience comes when we are void of feverishness. "Impatience" means feverishness.

Truth and Proof

Truth cannot be understood through proof. Truth is beyond proof or disproof.

When you are disturbed

Do you do this? Any day that you are disturbed, instead of yelling and screaming and shouting at other people here and there, blaming other people, have you ever said, "Oh, I want to do more chanting, and let me sit. Today I feel disturbed so let me go and love more people around me." Have you ever done that?

Hollow and Empty # 2

Creation is all anxious to fulfill your desire when you become hollow and empty.

Dissolving in love

In Divine love you cease to exist, you dissolve, like a pinch of salt that dissolves in water, a grain of sugar that disappears and dissolves and allows just that Divinity to be there.

Purpose of Words#2

The purpose of words is to create silence. If words create more noise, then they have not reached their goal.

Faith and Dobut

Faith brings totality in you. It pulls together all the loose ends of your consciousness. It integrates your whole personality. Doubt scatters you. Doubt destroys you.

Take life as a play

Take life not serious. If you take life very serious, then you are bound to be disturbed. The only way you can maintain your equanimity is to take it as a play, as a game, and not take anything too serious.
