not believe it. She had never seen this town so beautiful; she had always thought it horrible. Now it was really tremendously beautiful -- psychedelic, so many colours. Even the Thames which she had always thought of as an ugly, dirty and polluted thing and the sewerage system for the whole town, looked very beautiful.
She came to the Thames bridge but she could not see anybody. Many people were passing but she could not see them, because when you have lost your gross body you cannot see another's gross body. It is difficult because we only see that which we are. So the bridge seemed completely empty. Houses were there but they were all empty. She was becoming a little terrified. What had happened to this town?
Then suddenly her husband passed over the bridge. She could see him because he was the only man she had ever loved and that love remained a link. Because of the love she could see the gross body of her husband. Then when she could see him, she remembered her home, her dog, her husband's friends, and then by and by she could see more and more people. The husband functioned as a link so that by and by the whole town was repeopled.
I function for you just as a link. Through me, if surrender happens, your inner world will be peopled with the whole. It will be difficult for you to see the whole directly. Through me it will be possible. So I am a symbol, and your surrender to me is symbolic. It is towards the whole through me. At the most I am instrumental, a bridge to be passed. Don't make your home on me.
Everything is going well. Just remember one thing: don't help the ego in any way. And whenever you see that the ego is too much then you can come to me, otherwise there is no need. You can come to me so that I can push it a little aside. That's all that has to be done. Push the ego aside, open the door, and everything happens.
Nothing specifically is to be done. Rather it is a sort of undoing. Undo the ego, that's all. Things are going well... I am happy!
