him also become an individual, and then he will be able to. You become an individual, and then you will not need it.
And in life this is one of the most fundamental things. Whatsoever you need, you will not get. And whatsoever you don't need comes and knocks at your door (laughter). If you ask for security, insecurity will come. If you accept insecurity, suddenly you become secure. That's the wisdom of insecurity. If you accept aloneness, you will enjoy it. it is tremendously spacious, with no boundaries; nobody else to create any disharmony. Simply you... and you... and you -- infinitely you. And wherever you look, endless being.
One should desire it. But people desire it when it is not there, and when it starts coming they become shaken and afraid. Then they start finding little excuses -- those are meaningless. The real thing is this -- that you are feeling alone. Not that before you were not alone and now you have become alone... before you were a little less aware. You have become a little more aware. Before you were more immature, and you were believing in toys. Now you have become mature, and the toys are -- toys. You can play with them, but they are of not much use.
So when for the first time the child suddenly becomes aware that these are toys that he is playing with, he feels emptiness. The toys are gone -- as you say, everything is going -- and the real things have not come up. The child simply stands there and cries, and tears come to him. His whole world is shattered -- for now he knows that this car is just a toy; it's of no use. Now he wants a real car -- but for that he is not ready yet. So there is a gap when the toy car has gone and the real car cannot be given to him. So these intervals are of very painful experiences -- but they pay.
Just try to be alone. I am here to try to make you alone -- and happy. Don't depend on anybody; nobody can make you happy. Happiness is an understanding... it happens in your growth.
Don't miss this opportunity. California will be there when I am gone. You can always go to California, but once I am gone (a chuckle) you will suffer your whole life. Don't miss these opportunities!
