Ancient Wisdom In Modern Time Session: 7

Pure Intelligence:

1. Purification: Purification means one has to drop all conditionings, all ideologies, all prejudices, all concepts, all philosophies that have been taught to you by others.
   • What does purifying the body mean? The first meaning is that there should be no disturbance, no blocks, no complexes in the body, in the system of the body – then the body is pure.
   • The deeper purification of the body is in order to release all the suppressed emotions from your body. Bathing is good, but a deeper bathing is also needed.
2. Reverence: Love plus reverence is equal to faith.Faith is something that one should not miss. Belief is just ordinary. It is good not to get involved in beliefs.
   • Have faith. That means: be ready to fall in love with someone, with deep reverence.
   • Don’t be against yourself — that is what is meant by surrender.
   • The master, the guru, is a person with whom you are in deep love and faith and reverence.
   • It is not just a relationship; it is a deep creativity. He can create you, he can transform you, he can give you a new birth.
3. Pure Intelligence: Intelligence is your pure capacity to see, intelligence is your innocent capacity to understand.
   • Intelligence is to make the utmost use of the present moment that is available – the future will come out of it.
   • Whatsoever you are doing, bring the quality of intelligence into it. Do it intelligently: that’s what meditation is.
   • An intelligent person will make his life in such a way that it will have a poetry of spontaneity, of love, of joy.
   • A life of celebration follows the luminousness of intelligence.
   • Intelligence is a natural quality of life.
