relax.
See the body as dead, there, far away from you
and the mind is also part of it, a mechanism;
you are just a watcher.
A simple watchfulness and you reach to the beyond.
You transcend life and death, you transcend duality.
You come to feel the eternity, the immortality,
your cosmic wholeness. You are not just a part,
you are the cosmos.
That is the meaning of being a buddha.
This is the host we were talking about.
Everything else changes,
this host remains always now and here.
This is your nothingness,
this is your emptiness,
just pure space.
And out of this pure space arise
all kinds of creativity
all songs, all joys, all dances. Only this experience,
if it becomes like a wildfire around the world,
can save humanity from itself.
Nivedano...
(Drumbeat)
Come back -- silently, gracefully,
without any hurry.
Keep hold of the consciousness
and the experience you have reached,
because you have to keep it like an
undercurrent, twenty-four hours
so that every act reflects your consciousness,
your compassion, your love, your meditation.
It is not something to be done for a few minutes
and be finished with.
It is something that has to become
your very breathing,
your very heartbeat.
Only then there is a possibility
for a future humanity,
for a new man
whose mind will not be destructive,
whose earth will not be divided into nations,
whose whole energy will be devoted to making life
as rich, as blissful, as peaceful, as loving,
as the poets have always dreamed of,
and only a few mystics have experienced.
Meditation is the way in,
it is the way to wake up the master
who can control the mind,
who can chain the mind,
who can use the mind in the service
of greater values
of truth and beauty and love and joy.
Okay, Maneesha?
Yes, Beloved Master.
Can we celebrate the ten thousand buddhas?
Yes, Beloved
