СКАЧАТЬ will open up an altogether new dimension of life.

      To live completely in the present is freedom.

      The past does not exist apart from memory

      and nor does the future apart from castles in the air.

      What is, is always present,

      and if you start living unreservedly in the present

      you live in God.

      Once you are free of past and future

      the mind turns empty and peaceful,

      its waves die down

      and what is left is limitless, endless.

      This is the ocean of truth –

      and may your river reach it!

      P.S. I shall probably go to Ahmedabad in January,

      can you come with me?

      It would be good if we traveled together for a few days.

      38. Love.

      I am glad to see such thirst for God!

      To have this thirst is a divine blessing;

      where there is thirst – there the way is.

      In fact, intense longing becomes the way.

      God is summoning us at every moment

      but because the strings of our heart are slack

      we don’t echo his call.

      If our eyes are closed then even if the sun is at the door

      we will be in darkness;

      and the sun is always at the door –

      we only have to open our eyes and let it in, that’s all!

      May God give you light, that’s my wish.

      My love and I are always with you.

      Regards to the family and love to the children.

      39. Love.

      I have your letter.

      The wheel of the world keeps spinning

      but why spin with it?

      See what is behind body and mind;

      that has never moved,

      is not moving,

      can never move,

      and thou art that, tat tvam asi.

      Waves lie on the surface of this ocean

      but in its depths – what is there?

      When the waves are taken for the ocean

      it is a terrible mistake.

      Look at the wheel of a bullock cart:

      the wheel turns because the axle does not;

      so remember your own axle,

      standing, sitting, asleep or awake,

      keep it in mind.

      By and by, one begins to encounter

      the changeless behind all change.

      You have asked me about the poem.

      I had a little piece read out by someone,

      then it came to me: I should hear it from you yourself!

      Now when you read it out to me I shall listen –

      and then I can read both you and your poem.

      40. Love.

      I received your letter on my return.

      I welcome this birth of determination in you.

      Such strength of will alone

      takes us to truth.

      Our deepest powers are aroused by it,

      the unorganized energy becomes organized

      and then there is music.

      What tremendous energy exists in this atom of self!

      But it can’t be known without utter intensity of will.

      You must have seen rocks

      that even the strongest chisel cannot break,

      and yet the sprouting shrub or plant

      slips cracks and crevices through it so easily!

      When the tiniest seed is filled with determination

      to push through and reach the sun,

      even the hardest rock has to give way.

      So a weak seed wins over the mighty rocks!

      The tender seed breaks through the hardest of rocks!

      Why? Because no matter

      how strong and powerful the rock,

      it is dead,

      and because it is dead it has no will.

      The seed is tender,

      it is weak,

      but alive!

      Remember, where there is will there is life

      and where there is no will there is no life.

      The seed’s will becomes its power,

      and with this power

      its tiny roots sprout,

      enter the rock and spread out,

      until one day they break the rock.

      Life always wins over death.

      The living force within has never been defeated

      by the dead obstacles without – and never will be.

      41. Love.

      Your letter was received with joy.

      When the heart thirsts so much

      for truth,

      for peace,

      for СКАЧАТЬ
