THE SECRET OF SECRET VOL2
The golden flower is opening
MASTER LU-TSU SAID: THERE ARE MANY KINDS OF CONFIRMATORY EXPERIENCES. ONE MUST NOT CONTENT ONESELF WITH SMALL DEMANDS BUT MUST RISE TO THE THOUGHT THAT ALL LIVING CREATURES HAVE TO BE REDEEMED. ONE MUST NOT BE TRIVIAL AND IRRESPONSIBLE IN HEART, BUT MUST STRIVE TO MAKE DEEDS PROVE ONE'S WORDS.
IF,
WHEN THERE IS QUIET, THE SPIRIT HAS CONTINUOUSLY AND UNINTERRUPTEDLY A SENSE
OF GREAT JOY AS IF INTOXICATED OR FRESHLY BATHED, IT IS A SIGN THAT THE
LIGHT-PRINCIPLE IS HARMONIOUS IN THE WHOLE BODY; THEN THE GOLDEN FLOWER
BEGINS TO BUD. WHEN, FURTHERMORE, ALL OPENINGS ARE QUIET, AND THE SILVER
MOON STANDS IN THE MIDDLE OF HEAVEN, AND ONE HAS THE FEELING THAT THIS GREAT
EARTH IS A WORLD OF LIGHT AND BRIGHTNESS, THAT IS A SIGN THAT THE BODY OF
THE HEART OPENS ITSELF TO CLARITY. IT IS A SIGN THAT THE GOLDEN FLOWER IS
OPENING. FURTHERMORE, THE WHOLE BODY FEELS STRONG AND FIRM SO THAT IT FEARS
NEITHER STORM NOR FROST. THINGS BY WHICH OTHER MEN ARE DISPLEASED, WHEN I
MEET THEM, CANNOT BECLOUD THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE SEED OF THE SPIRIT. YELLOW
GOLD FILLS THE HOUSE, THE STEPS ARE OF WHITE JADE. ROTTEN AND STINKING
THINGS ON EARTH THAT COME IN CONTACT WITH ONE BREATH OF THE TRUE ENERGY WILL
IMMEDIATELY LIVE AGAIN. RED BLOOD BECOMES MILK. THE FRAGILE BODY OF THE
FLESH IS SHEER GOLD AND DIAMONDS. THAT IS A SIGN THAT THE GOLDEN FLOWER IS
CRYSTALLIZED.
THE BRILLIANCY OF THE LIGHT GRADUALLY CRYSTALLIZES. HENCE A GREAT TERRACE
ARISES AND UPON IT, IN THE COURSE OF TIME, THE BUDDHA APPEARS. WHEN THE
GOLDEN BEING APPEARS WHO SHOULD IT BE BUT THE BUDDHA? FOR THE BUDDHA IS THE
GOLDEN HOLY MAN OF THE GREAT ENLIGHTENMENT. THIS IS A GREAT CONFIRMATORY
EXPERIENCE.
A parable:
One day the Lord Vishnu was sitting in a deep cave within a far mountain
meditating with his disciple. Upon the completion of the meditation the
disciple was so moved that he prostrated himself at Vishnu's feet and begged
to be able to perform some service for his Lord in gratitude. Vishnu smiled
and shook his head, "It will be most difficult for you to repay me in
actions for what I have just given you freely." "Please Lord," the disciple
said, "allow me the grace of serving you." "Very well," Vishnu relented, "I
would like a nice cool cup of water." "At once Lord," the disciple said, and
he ran down the mountain singing in joy.
After a while he came to a small house at the edge of a beautiful valley
and knocked at the door. "May I please have a cool cup of water for my
Master," he called. "We are wandering sannyasins and have no home on this
earth." A wondrous maiden answered his call, and looked at him with
undisguised adoration. "Ah," she whispered, "you must serve that holy saint
upon the far mountain. Please, Good sir, enter my house and bestow your
blessing therein." "Forgive my rudeness," he answered, "but I am in haste. I
must return to my Master with his water immediately." "Surely, just your
blessing won't upset him. After all he is a great holy man, and as his
disciple you are obligated to help those of us who are less fortunate.
Please," she repeated, "just your blessing for my humble house. It is such
an honor to have you here and to be enabled to serve the Lord through you."
So the story goes, he relented, and entered the house and blessed all
therein. And then it was time for dinner, and he was persuaded to stay and
further the blessing by partaking of her food (thereby making it also holy),
and since it was so late -- and so far back to the mountain, and he might
slip in the dark and spill the water -- he was persuaded to sleep there that
night and get an early start in the morning. But in the morning, the cows
were in pain because there was no one to help her milk them, and if he could
just help her this once (after all, cows are sacred to the Lord Krishna, and
should not be in pain) it would be so wondrous.
And days became weeks, and still he remained. They were married, and had
numerous children. He worked the land well and brought forth good harvests.
He purchased more land and put it under cultivation, and soon his neighbors
looked to him for advice and help, and he gave it freely. His family
prospered. Temples were built through his effort, schools and hospitals
replaced the jungle, and the valley became a jewel upon the earth. Harmony
prevailed where only wilderness had been, and many flocked to the valley as
news of its prosperity and peace spread throughout the land. There was no
poverty or disease there, and all men sang their praises to God as they
worked. He watched his children grow and have their own children, and it was
good.
One day as an old man, as he stood upon a low hill facing the valley, he
thought of all that had transpired since he had arrived: farms and happy
prosperity as far as the eye could see. And he was pleased.
Suddenly there was a great tidal wave, and as he watched, it flooded the
whole valley, and in an instant all was gone. Wife, children, farms,
schools, neighbors -- all gone. He stared, bewildered, at the holocaust that
spread before him.
And then he saw riding upon the face of the waters his Master, Vishnu, who
looked at him and smiled sadly, and said, "I'm still waiting for my water!"
This is the story of man. This is what has happened to everybody. We have
completely forgotten why we are here, why we came in the first place, what
to learn, what to earn, what to know, who we are and from whence and to
where, what is our source and the cause of our journey into life, into body,
in the world, and what we have attained up to now. And if a tidal wave comes
-- and it is going to come, it always comes; its name is death -- all will
be gone: children, family, name, fame, money, power, prestige. All will be
gone in a single moment and you will be left alone, utterly alone. All that
you had done will be undone by the tidal wave. All that you had worked for
will prove nothing but a dream, and your hands and your heart will be empty.
And you will have to face the Lord, you will have to face existence.
And the existence has been waiting for you; long, long it has been waiting
for you to bring something for which you had been sent in the first place.
But you have fallen asleep, and you are dreaming a thousand and one dreams.
All that you have been doing up to now is nothing but a dream, because death
comes and all is washed away.
Reality cannot be washed away by death. Reality knows no death. Reality is
undying. Reality is deathless. Reality is eternal. All that dies simply
proves by its death that it was unreal, that it was illusory, maya, a dream
-- maybe a nice dream, but a dream all the same. You may be dreaming of hell
or you may be dreaming of heaven; it does not make much difference. The
moment you will be awakened you will find yourself utterly empty -- and
empty in a negative sense, not in the positive sense as Buddhas know it: not
empty of the ego, but empty of all that your ego has been trying to do; full
of ego, but empty of any attainment, empty of any realization, empty of any
knowledge. And it is not that the ego does not claim knowledge; it claims.
The ego is very knowledgeable, it collects information. It is a great
collector: it collects money, it collects information, it collects every
kind of thing. It believes in accumulation. It is greed and nothing but
greed; ego is another name for greed. It wants to possess, but all that you
possess will be gone. And all that you have done, you have done in your
dream. The moment you will be awakened you will be surprised at how much
time has been wasted, at how many lives you have been living in a dream, at
how many dreams you have lived.
To be a seeker means to come out of this dream, to come out of this
dreaming state of consciousness. To be a seeker means: making an effort to
wake up. To wake up is to become a Buddha -- to be alert, to be conscious,
to be full of light within so that all unconsciousness disappears, so that
all sleep disappears, so the darkness of sleep is no more inside you and you
are fully awake.
It happened:
A great astrologer saw Buddha. He could not believe his eyes -- that body,
that golden aura around the body, those beautiful eyes, as silent as any
lake can be, and as deep and as pure as any lake can be, that
crystal-clarity, that walking grace. He fell at Buddha's feet and he said,
"I have studied astrology, palmistry. My whole life I have been studying
types of men, but I have never come across a man like you! To what type do
you belong? Are you a god who has descended on the earth? -- because you
don't seem to belong to this earth. I can't see any heaviness in you. You
are absolutely light, weightless. I am wondering how you are walking on the
earth, because I don't see any gravitation functioning on you. Are you a god
who has descended from heaven just to have a look at what is happening on
the earth? a messenger from God? a prophet? Who are you?"
And Buddha said, "I am not a god."
The astrologer asked, "Then are you what in Indian mythology is called a
YAKSHA?" -- a little bit lower than the gods.
And Buddha said, "No, I am not a YAKSHA either."
"Then who are you? What kind of man, what category to put you in?"
And Buddha said, "I am not a man or a woman."
Now the astrologer was very much puzzled, and he said, "What do you mean?
Do you mean you are an animal, an animal spirit, or the spirit of a tree, or
the spirit of a mountain or the spirit of a river?" -- because Indian
mythology is pantheistic, it believes in all kinds of spirits. "So who are
you, the spirit of a rosebush? You look so beautiful, so innocent."
And Buddha said, "No, I am not an animal, nor the spirit of a tree, nor the
spirit of a mountain."
"Then who are you?" The astrologer was puzzled very much.
And Buddha said, "I am awareness and nothing else. You cannot categorize
me, because all categories are applicable to dreams."
Somebody is dreaming he is a man, somebody else is dreaming she is a woman,
and so on and so forth. Categories belong to the world of dreams. When one
becomes awakened one is simply that principle of awakenedness, awareness.
One is just a witness and nothing else, a pure witness. All clouds have
disappeared: the cloud of a man or a woman, animal, god, trees -- all
clouds, all forms have disappeared. One is just a formless awareness, the
pure sky, endless, infinite, vast. This awareness is empty of clouds but
full of the sky. This is positive emptiness, this is NIRVANA.
Then there is a negative emptiness. You are full of clouds -- so much so
that not even a bit of sky can be seen You are full of knowledge -- so much
so that not even a little space is left for meditation.
It is said: He who knows not and yet knows that he knows, is a fool --
usually called a pundit or a scholar; shun him. He who knows not, and knows
not that he knows not, is innocent, a child; wake him. He who knows not, and
knows that he knows not, is a Buddha; follow him.
To come to this realization: "I am nobody", is the meaning of being a
Buddha. Buddha is not the name of somebody. Buddha is the name for
'nobody-ness'. Buddha is not an entity. Buddha is just space, open space,
openness, a name for openness, for open sky.

Take your time, this site has much new wonderful information. |
Exactly like that, on the spiritual path, there are experiences which are
very confirmatory. It is as if you are moving towards a beautiful garden you
cannot see, but the closer you come to the garden, the cooler the breezes
are that you can feel. The farther away you go, the more coolness
disappears; the closer you come, the more the coolness appears again. The
more close you come, the more the breeze is not only cool, but there is
fragrance too, the fragrance of many flowers. The farther away you go, the
more the fragrance disappears. The closer you come the more you can hear
birds singing in the trees. The trees you cannot see, but the song of the
birds... a distant call of a cuckoo... there must be a mango grove: you are
coming closer. These are confirmatory experiences. Exactly the same happens
when you move towards the inner garden, towards the inner source of life, of
joy, of silence, of bliss. When you start moving towards the center a few
things start disappearing and a few new things start appearing.
ONE MUST NOT CONTENT ONESELF WITH SMALL DEMANDS BUT MUST RISE TO THE
THOUGHT THAT ALL LIVING CREATURES HAVE TO BE REDEEMED.
And remember, when confirmatory experiences start appearing, don't be
satisfied too soon. The cool breeze has come, and you sit there and you
think that you have arrived. The coolness is beautiful, the coolness is
blissful, but you have to go far. Don't be satisfied with small things. Feel
happy that they have started happening, take them as milestones, but they
are not goals. Enjoy them, thank God, feel gratitude, but go on moving in
the same direction from where the confirmatory experiences are coming.
And don't be contented with small demands. For example: peacefulness is a
small demand, it can be easily attained. The state of a non-tense mind can
easily be attained; it is not very difficult. To be happy and cheerful can
easily be attained, it is not much. To be at ease, unanxious, without
anxiety is not something very great. Then what is great? And what should one
keep in mind as the goal?
ONE MUST RISE TO THE THOUGHT THAT ALL LIVING CREATURES HAVE TO BE REDEEMED.
You will be surprised to know that this is the criterion, and this has
always been the criterion. In Buddhism it is called 'the principle of
Bodhisattvahood'. The closer you are coming to your own inner center, the
more you will start feeling the suffering of all beings of the world. On the
one hand you will feel very calm and quiet, and on the other hand you will
start feeling a deep sympathy for all those who suffer. And there is
suffering and suffering and suffering: the whole place is full of suffering.
On the one hand you will feel great joy arising in you, and on the other
hand a great sadness too that millions are suffering -- and ridiculously
suffering, suffering for no reason! This is their birthright, to attain to
this blissfulness that is coming to you. And don't become satisfied that you
have become blissful, so all is finished. If you become blissful, all is not
finished, really. Now the journey takes a new turn. When you have attained
to Buddhahood, when you have come home, now the real work starts.
Up to now it was only a dream. Now the real work starts: help others to
come out of their dreams. When the disciple has attained, he has to become a
Master.
This is what in Christianity is called 'the principle of
Christ-consciousness'. Christians have not really been able to understand
it; they have misunderstood it. They think that Jesus is the only Christ.
The word 'christ' comes from Krishna. It is a principle. The principle is
that when you are redeemed, you have to redeem all. To be redeemed from
misery is blissful, but nothing compared to when you start redeeming others
from their misery. To redeem oneself from misery is still selfish,
self-oriented. Something of the self still lingers, you are only concerned
with yourself. And when the self disappears and you are redeemed, how is it
possible to stop the journey? Now you have to redeem others. That's why
Jesus is called 'the Redeemer'. But he is not the only Christ. There have
been many before him, there have been many after him, there will be many in
the future. Whoever becomes a Buddha has to become, OF NECESSITY, a redeemer
of all.
One's joy, one's peace, one's blessings are small things; don't be
contented with them. Remember always that one day you have to share, one day
you have to help others to be awakened. This seed must be planted deep in
your heart, so that when your Buddhahood blooms you don't disappear from the
world.
Buddhists have two words; one is ARHAT. ARHAT means: the person who has
become enlightened but thinks all is finished, his work is complete. He
disappears. The other is called BODHISATTVA: he has become enlightened; he
does not disappear, he insists on being here. He prolongs himself, to be
here as long as it is possible.
The story is that when Buddha reached the doors of NIRVANA the doors were
opened, celestial music was played, golden flowers showered, angels with
garlands were ready to receive him, but he refused to enter. He turned his
back to the door. The angels were surprised, they could not believe it. They
asked him again and again, "What are you doing? Your whole life -- not only
one but many lives -- you have been searching for THIS door. Now you have
arrived, and you are turning your back to the door? And we have been waiting
for you, and the whole paradise is full of joy -- one more person has become
a Buddha. Come in! Let us celebrate your Buddhahood together." But Buddha
said, "Unless all those who are in suffering are redeemed, I'm not going to
enter. I will have to wait. I am going to be the last, let others move
first." And the beautiful story says that he is still waiting at the door.
The door is open because the angels cannot close it; any moment he may want
to enter. That is his right, to enter, so the door is open. He's keeping the
door open, and the celestial music continues, and the flowers are still
being showered, and the angels are waiting with garlands... and he's
standing outside the door. And he's calling people forth; he's calling,
challenging, he's provoking. He's telling people, "The doors are open, don't
miss this opportunity. Come in! And I am going to be the last. Now the doors
shall never be closed. They will be closed only when everybody is redeemed
and enlightened."
This is just a parable, tremendously significant. Don't think of it as
history, otherwise you will miss the point. There is no door, no angels, no
garlands, no celestial music. And Buddha, the moment he became enlightened,
has disappeared. How can he stand and keep his back to the door? Who is
there to stand? But the principle...
The energy that Buddha released into existence is still functioning. That
energy is still available to those who are REALLY searching. The energy goes
on and on working, and it will go on working for eternity.Jesus is no more,
but his Christ-consciousness has entered into the new sphere. Mahavir is no
more, but his consciousness has entered into this oceanic life. These people
have become part of existence; they vibrate. That is the meaning of the
parable: they still provoke you, and if you are ready to receive their
message they are still ready to take you to the other shore.
The moment a Master dies he becomes part of that infinite energy which
Buddha has joined, Mahavir has joined, Zarathustra, Lao Tzu, Jesus,
Mohammed. Whenever a Master dies, more energy is redeemed -- and it is
becoming a tidal wave. So many enlightened people have existed; it is
becoming a continuous tidal wave. You are fortunate. If you really long, if
you really desire, this tidal wave can take you to the other shore.
Keep it in your deepest heart: don't be satisfied with small things. Many
things happen on the Way, many MIRACULOUS things happen on the Way, but
don't be satisfied with anything. Remember, you have to become a
Christ-consciousness. a bodhisattva -- less than that is not going to make
you contented.
This is divine discontent.
ONE MUST NOT BE TRIVIAL AND IRRESPONSIBLE IN HEART, BUT MUST STRIVE TO MAKE
DEEDS PROVE ONE'S WORDS.
And the life of a seeker should not be that of trivia, because each small
thing that you go on doing wastes time, energy, life. The seeker cannot
waste. His whole life has to be devoted and dedicated to one single point.
He cannot waste here and there: he cannot go and sit in the coffee-house and
gossip unnecessarily. He cannot read that which is not going to help. He's
not going to do a single thing which is not going to help his journey, and
he's not going to collect a single thing that will become a burden later on
and will have to be dropped. He remains simple. This simplicity has nothing
to do with asceticism. This simplicity is simply scientific: he does not
accumulate garbage because then you have to carry it. He remains unburdened.
And the greatest garbage is that of knowledge, because all other garbage is
outside you: knowledge gets inside. It makes your head very heavy, and the
head should be very light.
Have you watched, or have you seen a Japanese doll called daruma? Daruma is
the -- Japanese name for Bodhidharma. The doll is beautiful. It represents
the enlightened man -- the daruma doll. It's beauty is that you can throw it
any way but it always sits back in full lotus posture. You throw it -- you
cannot topple it -- it again comes back. Its bottom is heavy, its head is
light, so you cannot put it upside-down. It is always rightside-up.
Just the opposite is the case with human beings: they are upsidedown. Their
heads are very heavy, they are top-heavy. They are standing on their heads.
A man who is knowledgeable stands on his head. He is in a continuous
sirshasana, a headstand.
The man who has no knowledge in the head, whose head is empty, silent, is
rightside-up. He is in a lotus posture, he is a daruma doll. You cannot
topple him, there is no way; he will always come back. You cannot disturb
him, there is no way; his undisturbedness remains continuous.
ONE MUST NOT BE TRIVIAL AND IRRESPONSIBLE IN THE HEART...
What is responsibility? Ordinarily the meaning of the word has become
associated with wrong things. The real responsibility is towards God and
towards nobody else; or, the real responsibility is towards your own nature,
and to nobody else. You are not responsible to the society or to the church
or to the state. You are not responsible to the family, to the community.
You are responsible only to one thing: that is your original face, your
original being. And in that responsibility all other responsibilities are
covered automatically.
Become natural. And the man who is natural is responsible -- because he
responds. The man who is not natural never responds, he only reacts.
Reactions mean being mechanical, response is non-mechanical, spontaneous.
You see a beautiful flower and you suddenly say something: "It is
beautiful." Watch whether it is a reaction or a response. Go deep into it,
scrutinize it. What you have said -- that "The flower is beautiful" -- is it
your spontaneous response this moment, herenow? Is this your experience, or
are you simply repeating a cliche because you have heard others saying that
flowers are beautiful. Go into it, watch: who has spoken through you? Maybe
it is your mother.... You can remember the day, for the first time she had
taken you to the garden, the public gardens, and she had told you, "Look at
this rose. How beautiful it is!" And then the books that you have been
reading, and the films that you have been seeing, the people you have been
talking to -- and they all have been saying "Roses are beautiful." It has
become a programmed thing in you. The moment you see the rose flower your
program says "It is beautiful," not you. It is just a gramophone record, it
is a tape. The rose outside triggers the tape and it simply repeats. It is
reaction.
What is response? Response is unprogrammed experiencing in the moment. You
look at the flower, you really look at the flower, with no ideas covering
your eyes. You look at THIS flower, the THISNESS of it! all knowledge put
aside. Your heart responds, your mind reacts. Responsibility is of the
heart. You may not say anything; in fact, there is no need to say, "This is
beautiful."
I have heard...
Lao Tzu used to go for a morning walk. A neighbor wanted to be with him.
Lao Tzu said, "But remember, don't be talkative. You can come along, but
don't be talkative."
Many times the man wanted to say something, but knowing Lao Tzu, looking at
him, he controlled himself But when the sun started rising and it was so
beautiful, the temptation was so much that he forgot all about what Lao Tzu
had said. He said, "Look! What a beautiful morning!"
And Lao Tzu said, "So, you have become talkative You are too talkative! You
are here, I am here, the sun is here, the sun is rising -- so what is the
point in saying to me 'The sun is beautiful'? Can't I see? Am I blind? What
is the point of saying it? I am also here." In fact, the mall who said "The
morning is beautiful" was not there. He w as repeating, it was a reaction.
When you respond words may not be needed at all, or sometimes they may be
needed. It will depend on the situation, but they will not necessarily be
there; they may be, they may not be.
Response is of the heart. Response is a feeling, not a thought. You are
thrilled: seeing a rose flower something starts dancing in you, something is
stirred at the deepest core of your being. Something starts opening inside
you. The outer flower challenges the inner flower, and the inner flower
responds: this is responsibility of the heart. And if you are not engaged in
trivialities, you will have enough energy, abundant energy, to have this
inner dance of the heart. When energy is dissipated in thoughts, your
feelings are starved. Thoughts are parasites: they live on the energy which
is really for the feelings, they exploit it.
Thoughts are like leakages in your being: they take your energy out. Then
you are like a pot with holes -- nothing can be contained in you, you remain
poor. When there are no thoughts your energy is contained inside, its level
starts rising higher and higher. You have a kind of fullness. In that
fullness the heart responds. And then life is poetry, then life is music,
and then only can you do the miracle of making deeds prove your words, not
before it. Then you don't only say "I love you", your very existence proves
the love. Then your words are not impotent words; they have a soul to them.
And to live like that is the only life worth living: when your words and
your deeds correspond, when your words and deeds are not opposites, when
your words are full of your sincerity, when whatsoever you say you are.
Before that, you live in a kind of split: you say one thing, you do
another. You remain schizophrenic. The whole humanity is schizophrenic
unless one comes to this point where words and deeds are no more separate,
but two aspects of the same phenomenon. You say what you feel, you feel what
you say, you do what you say, you say what you do. One can simply watch you
and will see the authenticity of your being.
IF, WHEN THERE IS QUIET, THE SPIRIT HAS CONTINUOUSLY AND UNINTERRUPTEDLY A
SENSE OF GREAT JOY AS IF INTOXICATED OR FRESHLY BATHED, IT IS A SIGN THAT
THE LIGHT-PRINCIPLE IS HARMONIOUS IN THE WHOLE BODY; THEN THE GOLDEN FLOWER
BEGINS TO BUD.
"When there is quiet" -- a great confirmatory sign -- then "the spirit has
continuously and uninterruptedly a sense of great joy". For no reason at all
you suddenly feel yourself joyous. In ordinary life, if there is some reason
you are joyful. You have met a beautiful woman and you are joyous, or you
have got the money that you always wanted and you are joyous, or you have
purchased the house with a beautiful garden and you are joyous -- but these
joys cannot last long. They are momentary, they cannot remain continuous and
uninterrupted.
I have heard...
Mulla Nasruddin was sitting, very sad, in front of his house. A neighbor
asked, "Mulla, why are you looking so sad?"
And Mulla said, "Look! Fifteen days ago my uncle died and he left me fifty
thousand rupees."
The neighbor said, "But this is no reason to be sad! You should be happy."
Mulla said, "First you listen to the whole story. And seven days ago my
other uncle died and left me seven thousand rupees. And now, nothing....
Nobody is dying, nothing is happening. The week is passing by, and I am
really sad."
If your joy is caused by something it will disappear, it will be momentary.
It will soon leave you in deep sadness; all joys leave you in deep sadness.
But there is a different kind of JOY that is a confirmatory sign: that you
are suddenly JOYOUS for no reason at all. You cannot pinpoint why. If
somebody asks, "Why are you JOYOUS?" YOU cannot answer.
I cannot answer why I am JOYOUS. There is no reason. It's simply so. Now
THIS joy cannot be disturbed. Now whatsoever happens, it will continue. It
is there day in, day out. You may be young, you may be old, you may be
alive, you may be dying -- it is always there. When you have found some joy
that remains, circumstances change but it abides, then you are certainly
coming closer to Buddhahood.
This is a confirmatory sign. If joy comes and goes, that is not of much
value; that is a worldly phenomenon. When joy abides, remains uninterrupted
and continuous -- as if you are intoxicated, without any drug you are
stoned; as if you have just taken a bath, fresh as morning dewdrops, fresh
as new leaves in the spring, fresh as lotus leaves in the pond; as if you
have just taken a bath -- when you remain continuously in that freshness
that remains and remains and nothing disturbs it, know well you are coming
closer to home.
IT IS A SIGN THAT THE LIGHT-PRINCIPLE IS HARMONIOUS IN THE WHOLE BODY.
Now your whole body is functioning as a harmonious unity, your whole body
is in accord. You are no more split, you are no more fragmentary. This is
individuation: you are one whole, all parts functioning and humming
together, all parts functioning in an orchestra of being. Nothing is out of
tune -- the body, the mind, the soul, the lowest and the highest, from sex
to SAMADHI -- all IS functioning in a tremendous harmony and an incredible
unity.
... THEN THE GOLDEN FLOWER BEGINS TO BUD. WHEN,,FURTHERMORE, ALL OPENINGS
ARE QUIET, AND THE SILVER MOON STANDS IN THE MIDDLE OF HEAVEN, AND ONE HAS
THE FEELING THAT THIS GREAT EARTH IS A WORLD OF LIGHT AND BRIGHTNESS, THAT
IS A SIGN THAT THE BODY OF THE HEART OPENS ITSELF TO CLARITY. IT IS A SIGN
THAT THE GOLDEN FLOWER IS OPENING.
Then, furthermore, when all openings, all senses are quiet, not only the
mind... Mind is your inner sense; that has to be made silent first. Then
there are five senses which are mindfeeders: your eyes, your ears, your
nose, all the senses. They continuously bring information from the outside
and they go on pooling the information inside, in the mind. When they are
also quiet, not bringing anything, they are utterly silent, passive -- eyes
look but don't bring anything in, ears hear but don't cling to anything
heard, the tongue tastes but hankers not for the taste; when all your senses
are quiet and the silver moon stands in the middle of heaven -- the silver
moon represents the feminine principle; when the silver moon stands in the
middle of heaven, when all senses are passive, mind is passive and quiet,
that means you have attained to the feminine principle of passivity,
awaiting. You have become a womb.
It is a full moon night. All is cool and silent and passive. Nothing stirs.
The joy is infinite!
... AND ONE HAS THE FEELING THAT THIS GREAT EARTH IS A WORLD OF LIGHT AND
BRIGHTNESS...
And it is not only that you feel it within. When it is within, you
immediately start feeling it without too -- that this whole earth is a world
of light and brightness.
... THAT IS A SIGN THAT THE BODY OF THE HEART OPENS ITSELF TO CLARITY.
You are becoming transparent, clear, clean, perceptive. The feminine
principle brings clarity because it is a passive principle. It brings rest,
utter rest. You are simply there doing nothing, all is clear, all clouds
gone. You can see through and through into reality. Inwards there is silence
and joy, and outwards there is silence and joy.
IT IS A SIGN THAT THE GOLDEN FLOWER IS OPENING.
First, it was just beginning to bud; now it is opening. One more step has
been taken.
FURTHERMORE, THE WHOLE BODY FEELS STRONG AND FIRM SO THAT IT FEARS NEITHER
STORM NOR FROST.
As your silence and joy deepen, you start feeling that there is no death
for you. In death only the persona dies, the personality; the essence never
dies. When you know something abiding in you, something that never changes
-- the joy that continues irrespective of conditions -- then you know for
the first time that something is deathless in you, something in you is
eternal. And that moment is the moment of strength, potentiality,
fearlessness. Then one is not afraid. Then trembling disappears. For the
first time you look into reality without fear. Otherwise your so-called gods
are just out of fear: you have created them to console yourself, you have
created them as props for your fear, as protection, as armor. You are
afraid; you need somebody to cling to. These are false gods, these are not
true gods. Out of fear how can you find the true God?
And the so-called religious people are known as God-fearing. The real
religious person has no fear, neither of the world nor of God. In
fearlessness a totally different vision of God arises.
THINGS BY WHICH OTHER MEN ARE DISPLEASED WHEN I MEET THEM, CANNOT BECLOUD
THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE SEED OF THE SPIRIT.
Now nothing clouds, nothing can overwhelm you and distort your clarity.
Your vision remains intact. Somebody insults you but it doesn't become a
cloud. Somebody is angry, you can see through and through: you really feel
compassion for the angry person because he's unnecessarily burning in a
fire. You shower your bliss, your peace, your love on him. He is a fool, he
needs all compassion.
YELLOW GOLD FILLS THE HOUSE; THE STEPS ARE OF WHITE JADE. ROTTEN AND
STINKING THINGS ON EARTH THAT COME IN CONTACT WITH ONE BREATH OF THE TRUE
ENERGY WILL IMMEDIATELY LIVE AGAIN.
And if you can come in contact with such a man whose inner steps are of
white jade, whose inner sky is full of the moon, and whose inner house is
full of yellow gold; if you can come in contact with such a man, even if you
are dead, you will immediately revive. That is the meaning of the story of
Lazarus: Jesus calling Lazarus forth out of his grave. All Buddhas have been
calling people forth out of their graves.
I am calling you out of your graves, because the way you have lived is not
the true Way. You have become concerned with trivia and you have forgotten
the essential. You are just collecting seashells and colored stones on the
sea beach and you have forgotten all about the diamonds which are very close
by. You are collecting rubbish which will be taken away by death.
I am calling you forth to attain to treasures which no death can take away
from you.
Lazarus! Come out of your grave!
And the one who listens becomes a disciple. The one who listens becomes a
sannyasin. The one who listens starts moving into the inner world. His
journey is totally different from other people's journey: he may live in the
world, but he's no longer there. His concern is utterly different.
RED BLOOD BECOMES MILK.
This is the meaning of the famous parable about Mahavir. It is said that a
snake, a very dangerous snake, attacked Mahavir, bit his foot; but instead
of blood, milk started flowing. Now Jains take it literally, and then they
become a laughing stock. It is not a literal message, it is a parable: red
blood represents violence and milk represents love.
The moment the child is born, the mother's breasts become full of milk --
out of love, out of feeling for the newborn babe. Suddenly her blood starts
changing to milk. Suddenly a miracle starts happening in the chemistry of
the mother: up to now she had been just a woman, now she is a mother. When a
child is born, two persons are born -- on the one hand, the child, on the
other hand, the mother. The mother has a different chemistry from the woman.
The miracle has happened: out of love, blood starts turning into milk. It is
symbolic: blood is violence, milk is love.
When a person reaches to this state, all violence disappears. He's all
love, love and nothing else.
THE FRAGILE BODY OF THE FLESH IS SHEER GOLD AND DIAMONDS.
And those who can see, those who have eyes to see, will be able to see in
the body of the Buddha not fragile flesh, but sheer gold and diamonds.
That's why disciples are not believed by others. Others think the disciples
have become hypnotized because they start seeing things which nobody else
can see, which are available only to the close disciples. They start seeing,
in the ordinary physical body, something else -- another body, the body of
gold and diamonds, the body of eternity. This body of flesh is the body of
time. Hidden behind it is the body of eternity... but for that one needs
eyes to see... and only love and surrender can give you the eyes to see.
THAT IS A SIGN THAT THE GOLDEN FLOWER IS CRYSTALLIZED.
But when one is moving in this inner journey and one can see one's own body
as gold and diamonds, then one can be certain that the Golden Flower is
crystallized.
First it was just budding, then it was opening, now it is crystallized.
THE BRILLIANCY OF THE LIGHT GRADUALLY CRYSTALLIZES. HENCE A GREAT TERRACE
ARISES, AND UPON IT, IN THE COURSE OF TIME, THE BUDDHA APPEARS.
Now you can be certain that the Buddha is not far away, the dawn is close
by, the night is over. On the terrace of this vision of gold and diamonds,
of the eternal body... as this brilliance crystallizes a terrace arises...
in the course of time, the Buddha appears.
One cannot do anything beyond this point. When the Golden Flower has
crystallized, when the lotus has crystallized, you cannot do anything beyond
that point. Now one has simply to wait: sitting silently, doing nothing, and
the spring comes, and the grass grows by itself.
One moment -- IN THE COURSE OF TIME -- when the spring comes -- BUDDHA
APPEARS. WHEN THE GOLDEN BEING APPEARS WHO SHOULD IT BE BUT THE BUDDHA?
In the East we have called it Buddha, in the West you have called it Christ
-- it is the same principle.
FOR THE BUDDHA IS THE GOLDEN HOLY MAN OF THE GREAT ENLIGHTENMENT. THIS IS A
GREAT CONFIRMATORY EXPERIENCE.
And when you have seen within yourself a terrace of brilliancy, a
crystallized light, and on the terrace of it Buddha appearing; when you have
seen the Golden Flower open, bloomed, and on the golden lotus Buddha
appearing, you have come home.
This is the ultimate goal. This has to be found. This can be found. This is
your birthright. If you miss, only you will be responsible, nobody else.
Risk ALL, but don't miss it! Sacrifice ALL, but don't miss it!
