Think Without Mind

Remember: be ordinary; don’t try to be special in any way, otherwise you will be moving in a wrong direction. To be special means to be egoistic, and ego is the only Problem. There is no other problem. Forget about being special. Just be ordinary. And there is great joy in being ordinary.

Just be human. And by being ordinary you will come to know – you will know the art of walking without feet and flying without wings. That art simply means that ”I am not the doer. I have relaxed. Now God walks in me,God talks in me, God loves through me, but I am a hollow bamboo. I have no special goal in life –His goal is my goal. And if He has no goals, I am perfectly happy with no goal. I am flowing with the
river. Wherever it leads, that is my home – if it leads anywhere. If it doesn’t lead anywhere, then that is my home.”

his is relaxation. And to relax in reality is to attain, is to be enlightened. Enlightenment is an utter let-go.

Think Without Mind

There is a wonderful story about Krishna.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   . It happened when he was sitting down to dinner one evening. His wife Rukmini had kept his dinner warm for him. He sat down, Rukmini began to fanhim, and no sooner was he preparing to taste the first morsel than he suddenly stood up. Rukmini asked, ”What is the matter?”

Krishna said, ”One of my devotees is in difficulty,” and then ran towards the door. But then he suddenly stopped, came back and sat down to his food once again. Rukmini said, ”I can understand your running off to help your devotee in his difficulty; I can understand that it was absolutely essential to postpone your dinner, but I cannot understand why you turned back at the door. Why did you not
go to your devotee?”

Krishna explained. ”A devotee of mine was walking down the road in a certain town. His love for me is ecstasy, and although people were throwing stones at him he was laughing. Blood was pouringfrom his head and still he was laughing. Nothing existed within him except my name. And so I had to run to help him.”

Rukmini asked, ”Then why did you turn back?”Krishna replied, ”No sooner had I reached the door than the whole thing had changed. He had picked up stones to retaliate. Now he is strong enough to protect himself. Now he has forgotten me;he is facing the danger directly. Now it is all in his hands. There is no need for my presence there."

When you take the fight into your own hands, your relationship with God is severed that very moment.

As soon as you become clever or active or cunning, your relationship with existence is broken.
