Go in. Rest in your own being and slowly, slowly, as the rest becomes deeper, as your relaxation starts becoming a settled phenomenon, when nothing distracts you, when you become the center of a cyclone, then bliss arises.

Bliss is a sun that rises within you. Ordinarily, man lives in a dark night, never knowing any dawn, never knowing any sunrise, Y just stumbling in the darkness, falling here, falling there, getting wounded.

Life is like a nightmare: if you are suffering in a nightmare, all that you need is to put your total energy into waking up. Nothing else is needed. If you are being chased by a lion, you need not kill the lion because there is no lion at all. If you are being crushed […]
Reaching toward that inner flame is really an arduous path with many pitfalls. Moving in darkness, one stumbles; moving in darkness, one gets hit; moving in darkness, one falls and has to rise again. You need constant encouragement, constant support, somebody to prevent you from running away and escaping. That’s the function of the master, […]
You are divine and you are formless. God is not something quantitative, God is only a quality. God is not something material. It is only a presence. It is not like a flower, it is more like a fragrance. One can feel it, but one cannot catch hold of it. One can enjoy it, one […]
