you get involved only partially, then other parts which are not into it will start distracting you. That is natural. They feel suffocated; they don't feel fulfillment. They start rebelling, they start taking revenge. Truth is only for the total heart; total heart is truth. I am just telling you this so that this time you can change things a little bit.

If I die this moment, I will die perfectly happily, because there was nothing else to do; all else is done.' And the situation is available; it can happen. Just watch out for the ditch!...

Only small minds cannot contain contradictions. The bigger your consciousness, the more contradictions you can contain and yet remain in harmony.
