into an ocean of consciousness, because you are all melting, dissolving your separation from existence.
The ocean of consciousness is without any waves,
without any ripples.
It is utterly calm and quiet.
This moment you are the most blessed people on the earth, because everybody is concerned only with the trivia -- money, prestige, power. Nobody seems to be concerned to know themselves, and nobody seems to be concerned to know their eternity.
This moment, now and here, you are experiencing the most intimate, the most ultimate experience that is possible to man.
This experience is going to become your Zen Fire, Zen Wind. The fire will burn everything that is false in you, and the wind will take away all that is only a personality.
Out of this fire and wind
will arise your pure gold.
You will need to understand the transformation that happens in this moment. You have lived your whole life horizontally, in a line, from the cradle to the graveyard. In meditation the transformation happens: you are no more a horizontal line, you become vertical. You reach to the highest peak of your consciousness, and you reach to the deepest point of your consciousness.
The height
and the depth
reveal you
your godliness.
There is no God, but there is certainly a quality I call godliness. It comprises compassion, love, friendship, joy, creativity. It brings you new songs, it brings you new dances. It brings you the truth, and the immersion of you into the truth.
Collect as much experience you can collect, because you have to bring it with you. It has to become part of your day-to-day routine life.
Chopping wood, you should be as silent as you are now. Drawing water from the well, you should be as blissful and ecstatic as you are now.
Sitting silently, doing nothing, you should be as blissful as you are now.
And persuade the buddha, which is your eternal nature, to come along with you.
First, the buddha will come as a shadow to you, following you -- but even that shadow will bring great grace and abundance of life, great benediction you can shower all
