has a heart the world will be too overflowing with love. It is NOT. It is really overflowing with hatred.
Everybody is overflowing with poison, pouring poison into everybody else: parents into children, husbands into wives, wives into husbands, friends into friends, one country into another country, one religion into another religion. Everybody is doing one work: pouring poison into others and others are pouring into you. A great exchange of poisons goes on and everybody believes that he has a heart.
Nobody has one. It is very rare that a person has a heart, and when a person has, he cannot be a Hindu, cannot be a Christian, cannot be a Communist, cannot be an Indian, cannot be a German, cannot be an Italian.... He cannot even be a man or a woman, white or black. All distinctions are lost -- one merges into love energy, one becomes love energy, which knows no bounds.

So when you come here, you can become aware, and the mind will say 'What is happening? -- you have lost your heart.' It is not so. You never had it. Now you are painfully aware of it and you are feeling very sad. But no need to feel sad. Feel happy, because this is how one can learn to move towards the heart again. The heart is there -- you just have to pour your energy into it. You have never watered it, you have never taken any care of it. Nobody is taught to take care of the heart.
