just in the middle to take off.
So you need to go deep in meditations now. Forget about sex. It is finished and it is good that it is finished. It very rarely happens so easily so it is a rare fortune...
Now go deeper into meditation so that soon the energy will start transforming its quality. The energy that was sex will become compassion, will become more and more compassion, more and more love -- love unaddressed, love with no sexual colour, just pure love without any conditions.
[Someone asks: What is the meaning of sannyas?]
It is a great step....
God is invisible. He is everywhere but still intangible; we cannot touch him. so you have to find a master whom you can touch, whom you can feel. The master is a mid-way station: the master is just like you and yet not like you. The master is one who has seen god.
Sannyas means coming closer to the master so that you can see through his eyes... it is falling 'en rapport' with the master... merging and melting your energy with the master. It is holding the hand of the master so that he can take you into the unknown where you have never been. Once you have entered, by and by the master is not needed.
So sannyas is just a love affair with a master, a commitment, an involvement, and the real feeling comes only when you enter into it. It is to be experienced.

Everywhere you can continue... because it is a question of falling in love, space doesn't matter and time also doesn't matter; if you become related in love, time and space don't matter. Whether you are here two feet away or two thousand miles away, it doesn't matter. We are linked... something is joined.
Then it is my responsibility. It is your commitment and my responsibility. Then I have to look after you...
The understanding will come only through experience.
[A sannyasin says he is confused about the literal meaning of his name.]
In Sanskrit one word can have at least twelve meanings, so it is a very poetic language. It is not like modern languages. Modern languages are more scientific: one
