more divine than light.
Light is a scientific name for god
God is a poetic name for light
But they are really synonymous.
We are born of light, we are made of light.
The whole existence consists of light
And nothing else.
Except for light all is unreal.
To know it is to be transformed
To know it is to be enlightened.
When there is no darkness
There is no fear, no death.
The devil exists only in darkness
Ti is another name for darkness.
And because we are living with closed eyes
We are living in darkness.
Open your eyes and all is full of light.
Sannyas is a process of opening your eyes.
Not only the outer but the inner too.
The ultimate sound is heard only
When the mind is completely silent.
It is the sound of silence.
It is silence dancing, it is silence vibrating.
To hear it is the goal of all meditation.
ONce you have heard it
You are transformed into a totally new being
Transmuted in a new dimension.
You are no more a mind, you become a no-mind.
And that is the most beautiful experience
To be a no-mind, to be utterly silent.
But that silence is not dead
It is so musical that all music is nothing but noise.
Make every effort to be silent
So that you can hear the ultimate sound.
It is this sound
That the Bible talks about
In the beginning was the word,
The Word was with god and the word was god.
To translate it as word is wrong
It would have been far more true and closer
To truth if it were translated as sound:
In the beginning was sound.
Or even silence
Would have been better than word.
'Word' is not the right word.
The people who were writing the Bible
Must have experienced the tremendous silence
That comes out of meditation.
Life is full of divine glory
But we are unconscious.
We are so deeply asleep
That we go on missing the glory of it.
It is the most perfect existence possible,
The most beautiful,
