changes in the mind, then the time sense changes immediately. Our time sense depends on a particular mind. The particular mi nd that you have always lived with has been uprooted in this group. You have passed through a chaos, a very creative chaos -- stars are born out of such chaos. But you have lost the time sense; you have lost your moorings -- where you are, who you are -- as if a dream is broken so suddenly that you have lost your identity.

It has been a great trip for you, almost an LSD trip. It can happen with LSD that the time sense is lost, the space sense is lost. You don't know where you are, you don't know what time it is.

A gap has arisen between you and your past. I can see it. You are in the gap -- neither there nor here. Just move with that time. There is no need to make any effort to change it. Just move with it as it is. Let it be. Enjoy it.

Don't get scared because of it and don't start brooding about what is happening -- are you going crazy or something? Just accept it and enjoy it and move with it -- it's good -- as if the whole world
