MIND - You have many minds but you have only one heart. Have you observed this  fact? You don't have one mind; you are multipsychic, you have many minds. They  constantly change-every moment your mind changes. One moment it is full of doubt,  another moment it is full of belief, and another moment again it is full of doubt. One  moment it wants to take the jump, another moment it escapes. One moment you are  so full of love, another moment so full of anger and hate. --- Watch it: you have a  thousand and one minds, and they go on rotating. There is a kind of rotation system in  your head. For a moment one mind becomes the master, and in that moment you  decide something and you think you will be able to do it. You will not be able to,  because next moment the monarch is gone. It is a rotation system: another mind has  come up, now another spoke of the wheel has come up. And this mind knows nothing  of the decision that the other mind has taken. - This self knows nothing of the other  self; it will destroy whatsoever you have decided. One moment you decide never to  smoke again, another moment you are pulling out your cigarette packet. And you are  surprised-just a moment ago you had decided, and the decision seemed so total, so  TRUSTABLE. And now it is all gone, gone down the drain, nothing of it is there. And  you are perfectly willing to smoke again. And again that old mind will come back and  torture you, and you will repent and think that you are guilty. - But this will go on  changing. Mind is a flux, it is a continuum of many minds. And that's why those who  live in the mind live a disintegrated, fragmentary life. - The heart is one, it is always  one. The heart means the watching consciousness in you. Who is the watcher of the  head? Try to meditate over it. Anger comes: who is watching? You know perfectly  well that there is anger; you know perfectly well that it is coming and growing, you  know perfectly well that soon you will be overwhelmed by it. And then it is going,  receding, disappearing, you know it is gone. Gone, gone, gone, it is no more  there.Who is watching? - Love comes and goes. Misery comes, happiness comes,  everything comes and everything goes. Who is watching? The watcher remains. -  Only one thing in you is constant, and that is the watcher. Everything changes, only  the watcher abides. That watcher is your soul. - The real silence happens when you  start watching the noise of your mind. - There is a constant traffic in the  mind-thoughts, memories, imagination, thousands of desires. It is always a crowd  moving in all directions. If you can stand by the side of the road and just watch,  without any evaluation, judgment, without condemning something or appreciating  something - just sitting on the bank of the river, watching the flow of the river,  unconcerned, detached, just being a pure witness, then the miracle happens ... 

EVIL - Jesus says: "Resist not evil." A very strange
statement. No other awakened person has given such a
rebellious statement. Christian priests, missionaries,
don't talk about it at all. They talk about other
things, but they don't talk about this strange statement:
"Resist not evil." It seems very illogical, irreligious.
Evil HAS to be resisted - and Jesus says: "Resist not evil."
Why? --- There is a secret in it. If you resist evil,
you give energy to it. Every resistance gives energy to the
thing resisted. "Don't resist evil" means if you DON'T
resist it, it will drop of its own accord because you will
not be nourishing it with your energy; you are disconnected
immediately. - Only love can be just because only love can
understand. Without love there is no understanding and
without understanding how can there be any justice? Science
and the mind cannot know anything about love and cannot
know anything about man's inner being and cannot know
anything about God. It is impossible because the scientific
approach itself inhibits it, prohibits it. The very approach
is such,the requirement is such, the methodology is such that;
these things are debarred ... If you want to understand the
truth you have to be very loving. If you really want to
understand the whole of life in all its dimensions, you have
to approach it with great love and care. You have to be very
tender, soft. And then a new phenomenom arises in you:
your life becomes full of justice.
You cannot be unjust then; you cannot be unfair then -
it is impossible. A loving person cannot be unfair.
And love is always protected by God. Only those who are not
in love are unprotected; those who are not in love are always
in insecurity. The moment you enter love, you enter absolute
security, safety, because love is another name of God and
God is protection. The ordinary man lives in fear, anxiety.
He tries to protect himself, hence he becomes very tense.
Once God is known, tasted, death disappears. Death exists
only for those who have not known love. Those who have known
love are beyond death.

Trade Secret  -
 
The Religious & Social Abusers have destroyed people's
respect for themselves, and they have created guilt in
everybody. And you can create guilt for anything, but
once guilt is created, the religious or social abuser has become
powerful. The person who 'creates' guilt in you
becomes powerful over you - because then only he or
she can redeem you of guilt . Then you'll have to go to then,- then you can be
used by them ---

You have to be alert not to allow the mind to disturb your peace in the present, and  the future will take care of itself. Let your blissfulness be the only criterion. If  something is making you blissful, it is bound to be real - because from the unreal you  cannot get blissfulness. And if your blissfulness goes on growing, then you are on the  right path. 

Every thing that you perceive outside of yourself is a
reflection to you.
That which you judge to be negative indeed is a reflection of
who you are.
That which you judge to be wondrously beautiful is also a
reflection of who you are.
Whatever it is in your life that you resist, that you judge,
that you push away,
that you repress or suppress, all of it will come back to you.
Whatever it is you resist will persist and persist until you
come into allowance,
until you come into embracement, until you come into
non-judgement.
There are only two forces in all of man: One is fear and one is
love.
Without love you are fighting for survival, with it you are free
and creative.
It is not about loving anyone else, it is about loving you.
Judgement {who is bad or who is wrong} will bring about
separation pain and fear-
whatever you invalidate in others, you empower. Love unifies.
The only way you can change is to acknowledge and embrace
your fears.
To release the pain, nullify the judgement - discern, do not
judge.
Other peoples' journeys are none of your business, what
anybody else thinks of you
is none of your business - your business is you.
You will need to transmute fear into love to discover who you
really are -
And as you transmute the pain, so it is that you create the
change in your universe.

Darkness cannot drive out darkness;
only light can do that.
Hate cannot drive out hate;
only love can do that.

A Native American grandfather was talking to his
grandson about how he felt.
He said,
"I feel as if I have two wolves fighting in my heart.
One wolf is the vengeful, angry, violent one.
The other wolf is the loving, compassionate one."
The grandson asked him,
"Which wolf will win the fight in your heart?"
The grandfather answered,
"The one I feed."

NATURE,HUMAN - There is no particular
nature. Eech has his own
particular nature - there is nothing
like a generalized nature,
nothing like human nature. Jesus has
his nature, I have mine, you have
yours. And when you flower, you will
flower in a different way. ---
Everybody has his own. Even
Jesus' Master, John the Baptist, had a
different quality. Jesus never followed
him - he started moving in
different ways. It has to be so. There
is no problem in it. ---
I have to follow my nature. This is how
I see that it is more helpful
to you. It is my way, there is no
comparison, no criterion. ---
And there is nothing like human nature.
Each individual human being
has his own nature. So if you reach to a Buddha he will be tatally
different from Jesus. If you ask a Buddhist, he will say that Jesus
must have been a little political, that he was not purely religious,
otherwise why should he be crucified? Buddha was not crucified! ---
Mahavira lived naked, so his followers think that everybody who has
attained has to live naked, because when you become innocent, what is
the use of clothes? Jesus is not realized because he is still wearing
clothes. Even a Buddha is not realized - he is still wearing clothes!
--- So these are different people, and they have all attained in their
own ways; their expressions are unique. And it is good that they are
unique, otherwise life will be too monotonous. Think - a row of
Jesuses standing in a queue. It will look ugly. Alone Jesus is
beautiful, a precious diamond, but if there are too many just like
him, he will be a pebble on the shore - nothing of worth. ---
