Don’t keep yourself separate. Seeing a rose, become the rose. Seeing the sunset, be lost in it. Don’t remain aloof, cold. Don’t remain just a spectator, become a participant. Seeing the sky full of stars, become part of it, a small star. But participate in the dance. To me that’s what religion is: dissolving oneself […]

A dance is pure when the dancer dissolves into it, when the dancer is no longer there, when you cannot find the dancer and only the dance remains. That’s what meditation is sannyas is, ecstasy is, and ultimately that’s what existence is. Slowly, slowly, learn how to dissolve. Dissolve in any act, then that act […]
Unless one drops all borrowed knowledge, one cannot be wise. And the beginning of Wisdom is in being blissful. So drop all ideas of guilt – there is no need to feel guilty. You are perfectly good as you are. This is the way existence has made you; the whole responsibility is its. Rejoice in […]

My whole effort is to help you to be natural again because it is only through nature that one can come to godliness. […]
To be spontaneous means to be responsible to the present. People are dominated by the past. Life goes on changing every moment and mind remains clinging to the past. There is a gap between the mind and life. Anything that comes out of the mind is never going to be a real response; it is […]

Everyone belongs to God. There is no other way. We are born in God, we live in God, we die in God. Our energy is God’s energy: God is simply the name of the total energy of existence. But the total is not arithmetical, the total is mysterious. It is not mechanical, it is organic. […]
