Rebellion Of Mind

The mind’s death is your life, and the mind’s life is your death. So the mind protects itself. It has its

own vested interests; it has many investments. 

Of course, up to now it has been living in the world

and it has done much business, so it is an established thing. Now you are trying to rebel against it.

All meditations are a rebellion against the mind.

As no established order will allow rebellion easily, neither will the mind. It is just as if in a society

there is some trouble and somebody tries to go against the rules and the game. The police and

the judge, and the law and the courts, and imprisonment, are all there to prevent it. The status quo

becomes afraid... this cannot be allowed.

The mind is the establishment, the status quo. And once you start thinking in terms of meditation,

you are becoming rebellious. So the mind will create all sorts of trouble – it is natural .

Be here,Now -In the moment!

Whenever you can be herenow, be.

 If the mind moves and you forget, that too is natural. 

Don’t worry about it – otherwise first you move into the future, and then you start thinking about the past.

So both ways you are killing the present, mm? First you are not in the present, so the present is lost.

Then you start thinking that you have lost the present and that you have missed much and that that

time is wasted – so now you are thinking about the past. Again you are missing another present.

Night & Day ,Love & Hate

There is no problem anywhere with the night or with the day. 

Existence is as happy in the day as in the night. In fact the whole night, existence prepares for the day... rests in. the womb of darkness...gets ready again. The whole day vibrates with a thousand and one things, gets excited, moves to the climax, then gets tired, exhausted, spent, and moves into the night again.

Hate is also a love relationship. 

Behind each hate, love is hiding, and behind each love, hate is

hiding. In fact love and hate are not two things.

 They are not love and hate... the whole energy is

love/hate.

 That’s why any love relationship can change into a hate relationship very easily – in a

single moment. Just a single moment before you were in love, and now you hate.

 And vice versa is 

also possible.

Be a Mind beyond judgement

HOW CAN A TROUBLED MIND
UNDERSTAND THE WAY?
IF A MAN IS DISTURBED
HE WILL NEVER BE FILLED WITH KNOWLEDGE.

AN UNTROUBLED MIND,
NO LONGER SEEKING TO CONSIDER
WHAT IS RIGHT AND WHAT IS WRONG,
A MIND BEYOND JUDGMENTS,
WATCHES AND UNDERSTANDS.

Love deeply

Love, but be very careful; you are moving on sacred ground. You are going into the highest, the purest and holiest temple. Be alert! 

Drop all impurities outside the temple. When you love a person,
love the person as if the person is a god, not less than that. Never love a woman as a woman and never love a man as a man, because if you love a man as a man your love is going to be very, very ordinary. Your love is not going to be more than lust. If you love a woman as a woman, your love is not going to soar very high. Love a woman as a goddess, then love becomes worship.

Your Life-Observe & Experience

Sometimes, sitting on a silent night, looking at the stars – and something was going to happen and you shrank; apprehensive, frightened, you started doing something else. It was too good to be true. You missed an opportunity. Sometimes, in deep love, just sitting by the side of your beloved,something started happening; you were moving in some unknown direction. You became scared,

you pulled yourself back to earth.

Sometimes, for no reason at all, just swimming in the river, or running around in the hot sun, or just relaxing on the beach and listening to the wild roar of the ocean, something started happening inside you, some inner alchemical change, as if your body was creating LSD. Something inside...and you were moving in a totally unknown dimension – as if you had wings and you could fly. You became afraid, you started clinging to the earth.

It looks a little absurd and paradoxical. When there is no need to make love, then he is allowed to make love. When the woman has become a goddess, then he is allowed to make love – because

now love can soar high, love can become a climax, a crescendo. Now it will not be of the earth, it will not be of this world; it will not be of two bodies, it will be of two beings. It will be a meeting of two existences. Two souls will meet, merge and mingle, and both will come out of it tremendously alone in the good sense.

Remain a master

Start being the master of your own self. Give rest to the body, but don’t become a slave. 

Listen to the body’s needs, but remain capable, remain in control, remain a master. Otherwise the body has a lethargy in it, and the mind has a repetitive, mechanical quality in it. Then it can become just an everyday habit. You come to listen to me, you sit, and the body and mind start moving towards sleep. Break it! Come out of it.
