Sensitive Heart
Miracles are all over; one just needs a sensitive heart: Miracles are happening everywhere. But we are so blind that we cannot see.
When you see a rose flower, you don’t see that in that rose flower is hidden the whole philosophy of life – the leaves are not red, nor are the thorns red nor are the roots red.
Yet out of this green foliage comes a beautiful red rose. It is nourished by everything: by the roots, by the leaves – because the leaves are breathing constantly; otherwise, the rose would die.
Branches are constantly doing a miracle – bringing juice and water from the depths in the earth upwards, against gravitation. And there is no pumping system.
Miracles are all over; one just needs a sensitive heart, a perceptive eye, and you will see matter and spirit dancing together everywhere.
If you will be able to see the mystery of life happening every moment then even the person sitting next to you, in him will see God, Existence. As God, Existence is present as formless in everything.
Mystery means – Live naturally. Live peacefully. Live inwardly. Just give a little time to yourself, being alone, being silent, just watching the inner scene of your mind. Slowly, slowly thoughts disappear. Slowly, slowly one day the mind is so still, so silent as if it is not there. Just this silence…in this moment you are not here, as if the whole existence is empty.
Culmination Of Life
Death is not the end of life, it is the culmination of life. It is one of the most beautiful experiences. If you have really loved then only will you experience the beauty of death; if you miss life itself in listening to the sermons in the churches, in reading the Bible, and all kinds of nonsense … if you have missed life itself you will die in a coma. Before death comes you will become unconscious, so you will miss the experience of death. The people who are living consciously – and that is basic, live consciously every moment. Even while making love, remain conscious and a witness. It is a life… long growth if becoming alert. Then you can die consciously and you can experience death as the ultimate orgasm. It is far bigger than any sexual orgasm. In fact, the difference is not only in quantity, but the difference is in quality. It is immeasurable. Living moment to moment, one learns how to die. beautifully, silently, joyously.
One is going on another adventure. Unknown – Krishna doesn’t give any ideas what is going to happen after death, because that is absolutely wrong, destroying. It is like if I loved the movie and I tell you the whole story of the movie, and then tell you that I have bought a ticket for you, go and see. I have destroyed it already; what is the point of seeing it? I give them the ticket, but I don’t tell them what is going to happen. That they have to discover on their own. It is tremendously beautiful because I have lived before and I have died before, and I have died consciously so I know what a beauty it is. It is not the end; it is always a new beginning.
Death is the crescendo, the highest peak that life can attain. In the moment of death much is possible. If you have been preparing and preparing, meditating and waiting, then at the moment of death enlightenment is very easily possible – because death and enlightenment are similar. A master, one who is enlightened, can easily make you enlightened at the moment of death. Even before, whenever it happens, you have to be ready to die.
