brain and you are gone! So how can one be strong?
Life exists in vulnerability... it exists in danger, insecurity. There is no security and there cannot be. Security is only for dead people. They are very strong. Can you kill a dead man? -- you cannot. Can you destroy a dead man? -- you cannot; he is very strong.
The higher the quality of life, the weaker. Look at a roseflower, look at a poem, look at a song, look at this music [from the ashram's music group which can be heard in the distance] -- it vibrates for a second and it is gone!

So just learn to accept it and then there will be a very very deep understanding and a deep flow of energy. You will not feel it as a problem. It is not a problem; it is something very significant happening to you -- don't make a problem out of it.
... Just don't do anything about it. It is there -- enjoy it! If it is weakness, it is weakness. Let it be as it is.
Don't try to improve, don't try to do anything about it. Accept it totally and suddenly you will see it is not a problem at all. Rather than being a problem, it is something to be happy about, to celebrate.

Do it alternatively: one day you be the father and she is your daughter, the next day she is your mother, you are the son. Mm? that will be a more harmonious experience and the change will help you.
It is always good to feel each other from different angles, because a man has multi-aspects. And when we are related only in one way, sooner or later that possibility is finished -- one starts feeling a little bored because it becomes repetitive. And always playing the
