unfolding of past memories, of past lives, means only that you have never lived totally -- always partially. You have not loved totally, you have not been angry totally, you have not been ANYTHING totally. Everything is incomplete.

A christ, a buddha, will not dream, because he has not left anything incomplete. A Jesus says this moment is enough -- live it totally.

Look at the sky; there are no stars now. Where have they gone? They cannot go anywhere; they are where they have been in the night, but only because of the sun, we cannot see them. Our eyes are so occupied with the sun, they cannot penetrate through to them. They are still there. If you can go down into a deep well, even in the day, you can look at the stars, because then there
