few blessed people on the earth today, who are entering on the ancient golden path which leads you to eternity, immortality. Slowly slowly you start melting, and Gautam the Buddha Auditorium becomes a pure lake of consciousness: one buddha you all share.
Do you see the change in your inner climate?
Has not the spring come?
Are not flowers of joy showering over you?
Is not this moment the most precious, because you are at home? To be a buddha simply means to be at home.
Soon Nivedano will be calling you awake. Before he gives his beat, collect as much of the experience as possible. Bring all those flowers to your circumference.
The ultimate in the search for truth is to bring the hidden buddha into your day-to-day actions, gestures, words, silences.

(Drumbeat)
Come back, but remember you are coming with the grace of buddha, with the silence and the joy of the buddha.
Sit down for a few moments just to recollect, to remember where you have been, the golden path that you have gone on; and you have returned back on the same path. One has to go on repeating -- going in, coming out, going in, coming out -- and slowly slowly the going becomes so deep that you need not come back, you can remain a buddha in the world.
I am against all renunciation. My philosia is to live in this beautiful world with grace and love and blissfulness.
It is a great opportunity to blossom. Don't miss it.
Okay, Maneesha?
Yes, Beloved Master.

"ALL OF THEM," REPLIED KYOZAN.
THE MASTER COMMENTED: "FROM NOW ON, NOBODY WILL BE ABLE TO DO WHAT HE LIKES WITH YOU."
THEN KYOZAN ASKED: "FROM NOW ON, WHAT SHOULD BE
