use this opportunity. Allow me and allow yourself... towards a transformation of your being. Allow me to enter you! Don't ask stupid questions. Open your doors.
Rather than answering you, I can help you towards an inner transformation where all questions disappear -- and the answer appears. But that is experiential. You will know it, but you will not be able to tell others. You will know it, your whole being will show it; your eyes will say something about it, there will be a glow around you. People who have eyes to see, they will be able to see that you have known it. But you will not be able to say who you are. No word can express that -- it is so tremendously vast. You can have it, but you cannot express it.

That will create a barrier between me and you. Rather than being open, you will become more closed.
What do you want? Do you want that I have called you as a chosen few? You have not come, but you have been called? You would like such answers, but they are meaningless and harmful -- because once you start feeling that you are the chosen few you will miss me, because all these are the tricks of the ego. It goes on playing so many games.
Don't ask for answers. Ask for the answer. Then I can show you the way, I can lead you towards the temple. Once inside the temple, you will know. And there is no other way to know it.
Knowing from somebody else can never really be knowledge. It remains, at the most, information. Knowing from somebody else is never intimate. It remains just on the periphery. It never penetrates to your innermost core, it never hits home. Philosophy and religion differ in this. Philosophy goes on thinking in terms of questions and answers, reasoning, syllogism, logic -- it is thinking. Religion is not thinking at all. It is more practical -- as practical as science, as pragmatic as science. The
