Michael Jackson
filming his live show for a DVD with 20 video cameras and a cast of dancers and
aerial artists - 12 hours before he died.
After the death
of Michael Jackson we can see the same behavior from his fans as seen after the
death of Princess Diana, the Queen of Hearts. We felt the energy of the heart
for days after her death and her funeral forced real tears from the eyes of even
the most callous.
Michael is going
to be bigger!! We see its start at the Apollo in New York where Michael is
starting to achieve Archetypal status. Everyone now recognizes the spiritual
dimension of this great vessel, channel for spiritual energy and star.
Michael Jackson
had real love for all of humanity and best expressed by him in the chorus of his
anthem to the human race, We Are The World:
Heal the
world
Make it a
better place
For you and
for me and the entire human race
There are
people dying
If you care
enough for the living
Make a
better place for
You and for
me.
MICHAEL JACKSON IS STILL EVOLVING INTO A WORLD SPIRITUAL FIGURE
It is not his earlier albums Bad and Thriller
which gave him this status, it is the later works like the Movie “Moonwalker”
which as well as brilliant songs and dance he transformed into an alien
spaceship to protect all the children from the Mafia who target the children
with drugs.
Then "Earthsong"
where he exposed the death of all animal species and the rainforests, then
“Heal the
World, make it a better place”
also “You
are not alone, I am here with you” which is a Bhakti love
song saying that God is always there with you, and many others as well as the
testimonial from the cover of his “Dangerous” album
where he described his connection with God, whilst dancing.
Then “It don’t Matter if
you’re Black or White” and the words of “History” where he
sang about the history of the world and Martin Luther King amongst others.
Now that he is dead it is time to evaluate this musical genius in
terms of Spirituality.
The strangeness of his death..
People do not die at his age often.
He had just completed filming his
complete two hour show for a DVD - singing and dancing beautifully for 20
video cameras and 5.1 surround sound twelve hours before he died.
MJ had insurance related medical
checks in advance of his shows in order to insure him for the shows where
the potential heart problems would have been noticed and warnings and advice
given to prepare for situation.
His own personal doctor, a Specialist
Cardiologist, was with him before and after the time of his death to ensure
his medication was correct and was the best.
The SPIRITUAL importance of his work.. The Opening of the Heart..
Michael Jackson
is a World influential figure being one of the only stars to have a global
presence such that anything he sings about is known by everyone.
Michael Jackson
has shown his concerns about and sung about The Mafia who target the young
children with hard drugs in the brilliant movie “Moonwalker” global tyranny,
healing the world, saving all the animals in Earthsong, racism, children and
their future... He was a genuine force for good in the world.
Because of the above
Michael Jackson
went through the character assassination where he was made to look
like a self conflicting person - singing about making better world for
children and at the same time possibly abusing them, whereas in the trial it
was totally proved that his accusers were lying and had a history of shaking
down other people and organisations.
Michael Jackson
was accused of being frail, yet this frail man was rehearsing his dance
moves and songs for hours each day for 45 days prior to his death. He
completed recording for a studio DVD live in High Definition with dancers,
lights and profesional singing and dancing.
Michael Jackson
was accused to being addicted to drugs and incapable of resurrecting his
career. Well, as for his career, his concert sold out and he made 95
Millions of dollars in just a few hours, just like that!!
As for drugs, he was burnt when his hair caught on fire and
had medical reasons to have the pain of this accident controlled. He did not
use illegal drugs and had his own personal Doctor, a specialist
cardiologist, who was there with him when he died, to monitor his pain
relief – how many prescription tablets he was taking and the safety of the
mix. The Personal Cardiologist Specialist Doctor,
Murray, denied reports that Jackson died after being given injections of
painkillers; his lawyer, Chernoff, called such rumors “absolutely false.”
“There was no Demerol. No OxyContin,” Chernoff said in a deposition to the
police.
Michael Jackson
was accused of being almost bankrupt, of spending much more than he earned
when his music publishing business of the Beatles songs and others which he
partners with Sony brings in 75 Million Dollars a year as reported by Forbes
and is worth Billions of Dollars if sold.. Now he is dead his record sales
are due to outsell Elvis and he is now spending nothing..
On one
day after his death, for the first time in history, there were one million
downloads of his songs, of one artists songs.
Michael Jackson
came out clean on children and drugs and money and was going for a massive
tour carefully prepared for and well rehearsed for 45 Days of dance and
singing every day when the show was recorded for a DVD with Michael singing
and dancing where he could reach a massive audience and ...
... possibly
Michael Jackson
was going to again touch more on sensitive spiritual subjects which no other
artist has sung about before or since – I mean who is doing “Heal the world”
or “Earthsong” now? - Listen to what the top ten songs are about and then
what the later Michael Jackson was concerned about in his music. There is a
difference, right? so exposing how little is being done to open the Heart to
helping all the children on this earth rather than just controlling or
killing people to solve our problems in regard to the global brutality,
education, starvation and torture (torture in 148 countries (Amnesty
International) as a means of population control).
As with Charlie Chaplin who was
exiled from the USA to live in Switzerland – after his movies like “the
Great Dictator” and “Modern Times”.
As with Tom Cruise who was fired by
Viacom and his career almost destroyed by creating rumours against him,
despite all his movies making 500 Millions of Dollars each, as with “Mission
Impossible 2” which spoke of Aids being created in the laboratory, and and
“The Last Samurai” also "Eyes
Wide Shut" which talks of a world of Satanism behind normality and whose
director Stanley Kubrick, who was exiled from USA to the UK after making Dr. Strangelove or: How I
Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb with Peter Sellers also strangely died of a Heart attack at the age of
65 just after completing "Eyes Wide Shut" with Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman.
As with Roman Polanski who was exiled
from the USA after “Chinatown” and “Rosemary’s Baby”.
The trial attack may have told him to
shut up and forget about global issues. He was possibly told to sing about
something small - possibly sex or relations or his hurt feelings - but
with this new series of concerts and a projected TV special
Michael Jackson
did not look like he was going to keep quiet. Is there something to heal the
world he was trying to say which people did not want us to hear?
Thus the attack on his strongest points,
children and drugs and money, in order to destroy his work in all media and the
attack, saying bad things, redoubled once he is dead as with Princess Diana
after she was dead. This work can be seen now in all media..
So, this is
the time to honour the Spiritual work and heart of Michael Jackson. To stick up
for our brother and to keep his spirit alive.
site2.mjeol.com — A CNN reporter from Beijing says that a poll taken around the
time of the infamous molestation trial showed that 90% of Chinese think Jackson
was innocent. It near the end of her video report about Jackson's untimely
passing.
JACKSON'S FILMED DRESS
REHEARSAL LIKELY TO BE HIS FINAL ALBUM
Sharon
Waxman of
thewrap.com is
reporting the singer's full dress-rehearsal for his London concert series was
filmed in high-def video and audio at Staples Center in Los Angeles the night
before Jackson died and is likely to be released as the superstar's final
album. Concert promoter AEG Live filmed the concert to produce a live album and
DVD titled "This Is It," Jackson's own proclamation that this would be his final
tour ever. Now eerily true.
The rehearsal, which went on
for several hours and included dancers, musicians, and aerial performers, was
filmed by 20-plus high-definition cameras and the audio digitally recorded to
produce surround-sound DVDs and CDs.
Jackson's music sales have
skyrocketed since the singer died on June 25, causing one AEG official to boast,
"We have a live album in the can." AEG Live will likely need the
proceeds of this album to offset the insurance costs of cancelling all 50
concerts, and that transaction will get even messier if Jackson's toxicology
reports show he died of a drug overdose.
Since Michael Jackson's death,
hundreds of bits of news continue to pop up like spring thunderstorms. Related
to this rehearsal, it ended at midnight on June 25 [Jackson would die some 12
hours later]. Jackson arrived home after hours of performing. No wonder the
family is demanding enough information from Jackson's associates and houseguests
to construct a durable timeline of the last 24-48 hours of their son's life.
The posthumous album may net
more for AEG Live than if Michael had successfully completed the 50-concert
tour? It's the Elvis phenomenon: death pays more.
QUOTES FROM INTERNET CHATTER - ATTACK AND DEFEND..
He has 100
new songs in stasis that were not to be released until his death. Well, the
record company is fighting a terrible recession, they need the songs so had no
choice.
I kind of
think it was along what you are saying.
millions of dollars in presold tickets, and the performer isn't physically or
mentally able to do the concert. the live in doctor, by what I heard on tv today
was hired by the concert promoters....
I kind of think he might have been killed by the doctor....?
i viewed several threads here on ATS concerning Micheal Jackson, some related to
his death, some not, but all were very retarded, and sounded retarded as well.
Most tried poorly to mock him, even though it was only a few days after his
death. Amazing, people keep surprise me.
Anyway, i just wanted to say thanks for the thread, and even though I'm not sure
100% that this is the case i have to say you made a really good point and its
most likely what happened. The whole sudden death thing sounded very fishy to me
when i first heard about it on the news.
I was shocked enough because of the fact that he died, but most shocking was
that even despite his security and health care procedures that he had his entire
life and something like this could happen? It's just spells conspiracy to me.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this
Ok breaking news is the MJ *Michael Jackson* is
dead.
But how the hell did CNN have his whole life story up within 15minutes www.cnn.com...
It seems to me they had this huge timeline on his whole life just sitting there
waiting for him to die? Like someone wrote it already.
I am utterly baffled, they already have tons of articles about his death
already. And on the front page it even said "CNN CAN NOT CONFIRM HIS DEATH"
But yet, there is articles all over plastered on the page, about his death!
So, my question is, did "they" kill him? And by "they" I suppose I am referring
to the Media, because they had all this info about his death before it was even
confirmed.
And they even have a very well coded timeline w/bells and whistles all about his
entire career and life. And it was posted within minutes of the news that "he
was taken to the hospital".
I am sorry you can call me crazy, but this just does not add up.
Lets assume for a minute there was no conspiracy to kill him. What the hell is
CNN doing making timelines and write ups about peoples death (decades before the
death is even expected??)
Keep in mind no one really saw this coming, MJ has the best medical care in the
world and he seemed to have 20+years left in him.
So I think I smell something really fishy going on here.
Why would they kill him? A distraction? I dont know.
Weird "coincidences" today...really weird.
ya it must be common to book other celebrities for your "rememberance"
Larry King episode before his death is even confirmed by the AP?
Sorry this is not making sense.
"The stunning death of the Superstar. Cher, Celine Dion & Smokey Robinson
remember the pop icon. Larry King Live, tonight, 9 ET"
What the? How can these celebs already have been booked? I have never seen
celebs just drop everything they had planned today and rush over to Larry King
to talk about their buddy dying.
Sorry I am just not buying it. Everything was in place instantly. Do you know
how much work it takes to get this stuff together? I am a writer as a profession
and I promise this stuff takes hours sometimes, especially when you have to
corroborate your info with sources etc.
Also, looking at the money trail, there is certain to be tons of MJ disks sold
now, and this will become a huge story selling papers etc. There is money to be
made off this guy's death for sure.
Maybe I am just reading too much into all of this, and CNN is actually just the
fastest news reporting agency in this sector of the galaxy. I guess?
I just call 'em like I see 'em. Did you know Michael Jackson was
in good enough health for Sony to be sending him on a epic Summer concert tour?
And now he mysteriously has a heart attack? Believe what you want, and i'll do
the same.
Michael Jackson Rehearsals Move Forward
May 12, 2009 06:37 PM ET
Ray Waddell, Nashville
Michael Jackson is four weeks into rehearsals in Burbank, Calif., more
than $85 million is in the bank from ticket sales, and the King of Pop's
return to the stage for 50 shows at London's O2 Arena is looking
increasingly like it will happen.
The shows begin July 8, Jackson's first in 12 years. Producer/promoter
AEG Live has footed the bill for a $20 million production, and the show
layout is coming together. "Originally we tried to keep the show down to
90 minutes, but Michael has so many must-do songs in his repertoire that
the shows now will be two-plus hours," AEG Live CEO Randy Phillips tells
Billboard.
Phillips would not reveal details of the production, but one could
expect a multi-media experience that would be "the most cutting edge
ever employed on a tour. We're using technology that's never been used
before in live entertainment."
The deal is set up where Jackson shares in net ticket revenue which,
according to Billboard calculations, would make Jackson's take on ticket
sales alone north of $50 million, though Phillips would not confirm
this.
Tickets average about $115 and capacity for the shows will be about
15,000 per, taking the gross for the run to about $90 million. Premium
and VIP packages and secondary market sales will boost the gross to more
than $100 million. Merchandise sales could bring in another $15 million.
Phillips says AEG Live is well-insured for the event. "We have one
policy in place and we're negotiating for an even larger binder," says
Phillips. "We have insured the production costs. In order to get the
first part of the insurance in place [Jackson] had to have a physical,
and he passed it with flying colors."
Phillips called the rehearsal process "exciting. We're using two
soundstages, and Michael's working in one with production designers and
choreographer/director Kenny Ortega and associate director Travis Payne.
And in the other one the dancers and the band - killer musicians - are
rehearsing the set and the choreography for each song."
Dancer auditions were held April 13-15 at the Nokia Theatre in L.A.,
with more than 700 dancers auditioning. We weeded it down to 200 by the
third day, and Michael sat in on the final auditions and chose the
finalists with Kenny Travis and myself. Everyone's locked in."
Jackson is now working out specific songs, though a top-to-bottom dress
rehearsal won't be ready for a month. "Michael's in incredible physical
shape, he's got tremendous stamina, he's been working out aerobically
preparing for this, and he is totally engaged," Phillips says. "He
sounds like Michael Jackson. He is laser-focused on making this the
greatest entertainment event that fans have ever seen."
Various legal maneuvers by former Jackson associates attempting to
derail the shows are "completely meritless and have not impacted
rehearsals in any way," Phillips says. "We have a bona fide contract,
the deal's in place, he's performing, we're performing."
Jermaine
Jackson struggled to remain composed as he read a short statement to a crowded
press conference at the hospital three hours after his brother's death.
"My
brother, the King of Pop Michael Jackson, is believed to have suffered cardiac
arrest but the formal cause of death will not be known until his autopsy,"
Jackson said.
"[Michael's] personal physician, who was with him at the time, attempted to
resuscitate my brother. As did the paramedics who transported him to Ronald
Reagan UCLA Medical Centre," Jackson said.
"Upon arriving at the
hospital, at approximately 1.14pm (6.14am AEST), a team of doctors including
emergency physicians and cardiologists attempted to resuscitate him. For periods
of more than one hour. They were unsuccessful," he said.
Dr. Conrad Murray, the
cardiologist serving as
Michael Jackson’s
personal physician for his O2 concert run, waited roughly 20 to 30 minutes to
call paramedics after finding the singer with a faint pulse last Thursday, the
AP reports.
Attorney Matt Alford, a partner in the law firm representing Murray as the LAPD
investigates Jackson’s death, said that the delay in calling 911 stemmed from
Murray being unaware of his location in Los Angeles. “He didn’t know where he
was, didn’t know the physical address,” Alford said. “There was no land line, no
phone in Jackson’s room that would have allowed him to call. It was all
happening so fast.”
According to the report,
Murray went downstairs and found Jackson’s chef, who quickly fetched a security
guard who joined Murray in Jackson’s room. The unnamed security guard is the man
who placed
the 911 call
that was released last week as Murray was in the background administering CPR.
Paramedics arrived about three minutes after the 911 call was made. Murray has
come under fire for attempting to give Jackson CPR on the singer’s bed rather
than the floor’s solid surface, however attorney Edward Chernoff defended
Murray’s attempts, saying, “He knows how to perform CPR and he performed it
properly.”
Chernoff
represented Murray during a three-hour interview with the LAPD this past
Saturday, a conversation that raised “no red flag,” the
Los Angeles Times
reported. As
Rolling
Stone reported,
Murray denied reports that Jackson died after being given injections of
painkillers; Chernoff called such rumors “absolutely false.” “There was no
Demerol. No OxyContin,” Chernoff said. After paramedics spent 42 minutes trying
to resuscitate Jackson at the singer’s home, Murray rode along with Jackson in
the ambulance to UCLA Medical Center, where Jackson was pronounced dead.
Following Jackson’s death, Murray spoke to LaToya and Jermaine Jackson, as well
as their mother Katherine. Also according to the report, Jackson’s children were
permitted to see their father’s body after a consultation with a psychiatrist.
People v.
Jackson
(full case name: The People of the State of California v. Michael Joseph
Jackson) was a 2005
child sexual abuse
trial involving
recording artist
Michael Jackson.
The alleged victim was a boy,
Gavin Arvizo,
referred to as "The Accuser". Arvizo was 13 years old at the time of the alleged
crimes. Michael Jackson was indicted for four counts of molesting a minor, four
counts of intoxicating a minor, one count of abduction, and one count of
conspiring to hold the boy and his family captive at his 2700-acre
Neverland Ranch
compound.[1]
He denied all counts and asserted that he himself was the victim of a failed
extortion attempt by the Arvisos who had a history of extortion.
J. C. Penney: alleged assault,
litigation and psychiatric analysis
In August 1998 the Arvizo
family was detained on a shoplifting charge at a
J. C. Penney
department store in
West Covina,
California. According to J. C. Penney, Gavin and Star Arvizo were sent out of
the store by their father with an armload of stolen clothes, the family was
detained and Janet started a "scuffle" with security officers. The shoplifting
charge was dropped, but Janet filed a lawsuit for $3 million, saying that when
she was detained she was "viciously beaten" by three security officers, one of
whom was female. The psychiatrist hired by J. C. Penney to evaluate Janet Arvizo
found her to have rehearsed her children into supporting her story and to be
both "delusional" and "depressed," although Janet's own doctor found her to be
only the latter. More than two years after the original alleged incident Janet
added a further charge that one of the male officers had "sexually fondled" her
breasts and pelvis area for "up to seven minutes" Ultimately the department
store settled out of court with the family for $137,000.
At approximately 2:25pm PDT (21:25 UTC) on June 13,
2005the jury
of the Superior Court of the State of California, held in and for the County of
Santa Barbara, determined that Michael Jackson was not guilty on any of the
charges he had been accused with. The not guilty verdicts on all ten charges,
including four lesser substitute charges, were read aloud by court clerk
Lorna Frye. Fans cried from happiness outside of the courthouse as the verdicts
were announced (one woman even went as far as setting free doves for each time a
"not guilty" verdict was announced). The investigation and trial had lasted for
an exhausting 574 days.

Here's my promised testimonial:
"Last June, I had the privilege
to get my first taste of India in the Company of two
wonderful, knowledgeable and fun
people, Satchi and Devi. From day one, they were able to
stabilize me in this strange and mysterious country.
Being a marketing speaker and a
meditation practitioner, I didn't really know what to expect from my training. What
I discovered was a powerful systematic way of practising meditation and other Energy
Enhancement methods.
I'm in the process of fully testing
the techniques and approaches I've learned but can already feel - and prove!- tremendous
changes in my life.
For instance, since I've been working
on "cleaning my base chakra" (The Grounding of Negative Energies, Stage Three of
Energy Enhancement, -Satchidanand) everything around me seems to be going through a
massive cleansing process - Only 2 days after I returned to
Canada from India, a chain reaction of events led my to change my 5 employees, change some
of my major accounts and delay a move to the United States.
10 weeks after the program, things are stabilizing.
Looking back, I think the
cleansing process probably saved my business and my marriage. Thank you Satchi and Devi!!!

If you wish to
explore the splendor of medieval Indian architecture,
include Delhi in your itinerary. Chosen as its capital
by successive dynasties, all took great care to build
majestic architectural marvels which stand out in
craftsmanship and grandeur. Even the British left their
imprint in form of magnificent colonial structures. All
this make Delhi, a historic city and one of the most
preferred destinations in India.
Attractions in Delhi include:
Qutab
Minar:
The Qutb Minar,
the tallest tower in India, was built to commemorate the
victory by Qutab-ud-din over the last Hindu kingdom in
the city and symbolize Islamic rule over Delhi. This
238ft (72m) tall monument, inscribed with verses from
the Koran, tapers from a 50ft (15m) diameter at the base
to just 8ft (2.5m) at the top. It comprises five
distinct stories each encircled with a balcony. At the
foot of the minhar, stands Quwwat-ul-Islam, India’s
oldest mosque. This mosque is built from the remains of
27 Hindu and Jain temples that were destroyed by the new
Muslim rulers of India.
Red
Fort:
How they cut the grass at the Red
Fort in Delhi.
The Red Fort
is the signature attraction of Delhi. Built of massive
sandstone walls to keep out invaders they still dominate
the skyline today. The fort houses exquisite buildings,
where Shah Jehan, his courtiers, family and staff of
three thousand stayed. The intricate decoration, lavish
royal layout and ingenious air conditioning system are
sights to marvel at.
Jumma Masjid
Located a few hundred yards west of the Red Fort, the
Jumma Masjid towers over the busy streets of old Delhi.
This grand mosque is India’s largest mosque and can hold
25,000 worshipers at a time. Wide red sandstone steps
lead to entrances on the East, North, and South sides of
the mosque.
Humayun’s Tomb:
This is one
of the most beautiful examples of Mogul architecture in
Delhi. The tomb, set in a Persian garden, is an
octagonal structure capped by a double dome that soars
125ft (38m) into the sky. In the grounds are some other
monuments, including the Tomb of Isa Khan
Rashtrapati Bhavan:
This is the residence of the president of India. The
building unmistakably carries a British influence in its
structuring.
Parliament Building:
Like the Rashtrapati Bhavan this building is a symbol of
British imperial power.
Other Mosques: Delhi has several other mosques
well known for their elegance. These include Begumpuri
Masjid, Gumbad and Masjid, Fatehpuri Sikri Masjid.
Temples:
Lotus Temple
(SEE ABOVE), Kalka Devi Temple, Hanuman Temple, Lakshmi
Narayan Temple are some of the well known worship
shrines in Delhi. These temples are reputed for their
architecture splendor.
Other forts: Purana Qila, Tughlaqabad Fort,
Nai-ka-Kot Ruins are places worth a visit.
Other Colonial Structures: Other colonial
structures which remind of the British rule are India
Gate, Supreme Court, Northern Ridge, St James Church,
George V Memorial etc.
Museums: Dolls Museum, Craft Museum, National
Rail Museum are some of the interesting museums in the
capital.
Other Attractions: Jantar Mantar, Alai Darwaza
and Alai Minar.
When you
visit Delhi you get acquainted with India’s history and
culture.
DANISA DE PAUL ENERGY
ENHANCEMENT COURSE REPORT
Here is the experience of Kundalini Energy which our Energy Enhancement
student, Danisa de Paul, got after a month of Meditation.
We taught the Energy Enhancement techniques to her quickly in Barcelona
and afterwards she joined the Energy Enhancement Online or Home
Study course which is available cheaply on the Energy Enhancement Website.
“I would like to transmit adequately in words the experience I got
with Satchy + Devi, but I know these words do not exist.
There are sensations and feelings there are very difficult to
explain, you can only have the experience.
A few days ago I was practicing Energy Enhancement meditation techniques.
I have learnt Energy Enhancement Stages One to Five of Level one
only, which you can learn on the Energy Enhancement Online Course,
however, suddenly my body started to move in circular movements anticlockwise and clockwise.
I left my body which was moving. Nothing ever happened to me like
that before, but after some time I was afraid, very afraid. An internal
voice talked to me, there is no reason to be afraid.
I did not know what happened to me. I got the feeling I was spinning
or may be about to explode. It was something very strong which after, stopped.
Now my body is doing this movement all the time in meditation but
first anticlockwise and after clockwise.
Today, also after this movement it started to move in a direct line
from right to left and after front and back.
Thank God I got two Masters like them which destiny put in my Path.
When I went to see them in L’Escala, on the Costa Brava above Barcelona,
the city in which I live, I knew that it would be a unique experience
and very special, but in reality I found with something more than that.
I found the direction of my life. The utility of my existence on
this planet, and I found the answer to many questions that many
Human beings ask to themselves daily.
They gave me a good motive to be alive and to help others.
They taught me how to enjoy every second, every detail, of life
that may be in another moment I would think meaningless.
I would like to tell to everybody how much can they enjoy if they
decided to spend some time with them.
The best way to understand the experience is by going. To risk change,
to risk opening another door, to walk through for a different path you could never imagine.
To synthesise what I said, I found happiness thanks to them and
in reality they show you what you need to do, but we need to put
our little bit of effort to work on ourselves. All their teaching is a process over time.
Really there is no money in this world can pay for all that...
Everything depends on us. Do you want to continue attachment to
your fears and pains or do you want to risk being happy…?”
Thank you Danisa, for your report, and for your steady effort of
a little meditation, every day.
Fear is the blockage of the Base chakra which is the source of Kundalini
Energy. Many people have had these experiences with Energy Enhancement
which can be read in the Testimonials portion of the Energy Enhancement Site.
Whenever we have an energy blockage removal in the Base Chakra,
we lose our cosmic fear, which can allow us to take a new step forward in life.
Also, removal of an energy blockage there will give us access to
more life energy which can have amazing positive effects in our life.

SRI SATHYA SAI
BABA
Dear All,
Despite Gengis Khan and his Golden Horde, the fall of the Roman
Empire and the Two Towers, and all the wars every year for 5000
years, the Masters of Wisdom still point to a necessary integration
of the Human Being on his passage to Enlightenment.
How can we make the world happy, if we ourselves are not happy?
This is reflected in the wider world as a necessary integration
of all the countries of the world. First as federations like NAFTA
and the EEC but later under one President and one council giving
equal rights, human rights and benefits to all people on the planet under the Law.
This is the program for the next one or two hundred years or more.....
But although we can consciously help the success of this program
towards a more enlightened leadership, we can help more if we first
help ourselves with more training.
Training beyond the school and the PHD is that which is higher than
the intellect. To make you more determined, intuitive and lucky.
More Spiritual, calm, energised and happy, always.
Here in Puttarparthy in Karnataka a Southern State in South India
we have been staying at the Ashram of Sri Sathya Sai Baba for a
few Days on tour with Energy Enhancement. Enlightened beings always
try to act in perfect ways. A perfect act is where no one is harmed
and at least one person benefits.
Therefore they radiate the energy of evolution and change so that
in their presence, slowly, we rise higher. If we can meditate a
little before we arrive at their ashram, The Buddhafield,
then the process of change can go on apace, more faster!!
Seeing the spiritual auras of the Masters emanate from them as
they go about their daily work we can understand the change they
produce in their years of service to humanity. Sai Baba is 76 this
year and has been working constantly since he became enlightened at the age of 14.
In these 60 years he has built a vast organisation with millions
of devotees all over the world which work was vastly expanded since
he was given a couple of hundred millions of dollars by the owner
of the Hard Rock Cafe Franchise when he sold his franchise a few years ago.
Apparently the owner of the Hard Rock Café Company had been going to see
Sri Sathya Sai baba at his Ashram for 15 years and never got an interview.
And one day he got the Interview!! And Sai Baba told him that someone would offer
Him hundreds of Millions of dollars for his business, but he was not to take the offer.
He was told that the next week he would be offered 200 Million Dollars more
and that he was to take that offer.
He gave the difference, 200 Million Dollars, to Sri Sathya Sai Baba!!
And it all starts through your practise of meditation. The method
of choice of all aspirants for the last 5000 years. With meditation
we can first make ourselves happy, and then we can move the world!!

still pervades the ashram we visit please read "Ramana Maharshi and the path of Self Knowledge"
by Arthur Osborne.
Tiruvannamalai is a centre of power similar to Machu
Pichu in Peru. Ramana Maharshi said they were on opposite poles of the planet and the
Sacred Mountain of Arunachala, near Tiruvannamalai is the Focus. We will visit the Great
Temple of Tiruvannamalai, one of the largest temples in Southern India with Gopurams which
are high gateway towers whose serried rows of white statues are tiered up to the sky and
see a part of India seemingly unchanged for many years.

Climb, walk up, Arunachala, the Energy Power Centre
at the opposite pole of Machu Pichu. We will visit the caves around the Sacred Mountain
where sages of old entered into Samadhi. Tiruvannamalai can give us a quantum leap in
energy which can be used for your own development. We will stay on the Ashram and visit
places of interest. Food is served in the Ashram sitting on the floor and upon a leaf
plate eaten by the cows afterwards so that there is less work and nothing is wasted. The
food is pure south Indian and to our taste, very delicious!
We will visit Aurobindo Ashram and the Matri Mandir
in Auroville near Pondicherry. The Samadhi shrine of Aurobindo and the Mother resides on
the grounds of their ashram. Satchidanand at the photo.-

international community dedicated to the peace of the world. Over the last 20 years the
community has reforested the land with over 30 million trees and provided evidence that
this can change the climate, creating a Garden of Eden where once there was desert. At the
centre of the community has been built a giant structure the Matri Mandir in the shape of
a cosmic egg. It houses a meditation room whose focus is the largest crystal ball in the

THIRUVANNAMALAI HOTEL RAMAKRISHNA
(NEAR TO RAMANA MAHARSHI
ASHRAM)
Introduction
A distinguished pilgrimage town and municipality
in Thiruvannamalai district of Tamil Nadu,
Thiruvannamalai is an ancient city that has long
been associated with many yogis and siddhars.
The headquarters of Thiruvannamalai district,
Thiruvannamalai has become an international
center of study in spiritualism.
Location of Thiruvannamalai:
Thiruvannamalai is situated 185 km from Chennai
and 210 km from Bangalore.
History
The
name Thiruvannamalai was derived from the name
of the holy mountain Tiruvannan Malai. In
Thiruvannamalai, Lord Shiva took the form of a
column of fire which had no beginning or end, so
as to destroy the ego of Lord Vishnu and Brahma.
It is said that Lord Shiva in ardhanarashwari
form, with one half being Goddess Umadevi,
appeared before his devotees here.

ENERGY ENHANCEMENT - TAJ MAHAL,
THIRUVANNAMALAI, INDIA
We are just leaving the Energetic Powerpoint, the town of Tiruvannamalai,
nestling into the feet of the Sacred Shiva Mountain of Arunachala,
on our way to Kovalam Beach in Kerala, South India.
Tiruvannamalai also contains an enormous Fire Shiva Temple, a match
for any European Cathedral, with serried ranks of white statues
of the Hindu expressions of God reaching up to the sky in White
Gopurams. Past the blessing elephant who touches you on the head
with his trunk in return for a few paise. Past the Olympic size
swimming pool which is used to purify all entrants as you immerse
yourself in its waters through into the central Holy of Holies where
the priests give you bareshouldered blessings and the Light of Arati. again to bless and purify.
Do not be befooled by the chicanery all around you. That is their
problem. Remember that Enlightenment is called for by You and then
descends as Grace and is the product of Your heart whose energy
is called Bhavanaa,.... willpower, meditation, directed energy of
kundalini, change, simplicity, purity, Love....
Just be aware of the powerpoint Arunachala and the power of the
awakened Saints who came to realisation living alone in the caves
on its slopes. How they have raised the quanta of energy in that
are so that anyone who comes there goes away changed. A Quantum leap of Energy when you come.
It is also the Home of Ramanashramam where we have been staying,
eating and meditating. His room is now a meditation room, charged
with light and his presence. The place where the great saint Bhagavan
Ramana Maharshi lived and worked for 66 years after his Enlightenment
at the age of 16. When he died in 1950 they asked him not to leave
them. He said "Where can I go ?"
Each Great Saint brings with them a new method or teaching on Enlightenment
and that of Ramana Maharshi is so simple. And so effective. That
everyone wishing to Progress on the Path of Enlightenment should be aware of it.
Our meeting with Shantananda Puri back in Vaishishta Gufa in the
Himalayas remains with us as we remember that commentary of his
on the Atma Pooja Upanishad, an inspired meeting between Enlightened
Aashtavarka and the Enlightened King Janaka, their advice to all
seekers and its relevance to Ramanas message.
Just find out who you really are, and that will cleanse all negativity from you.
I remember talking to one seeker back in Parana in South America.
She said that we all could not be like me and Devi but I replied,
"Oh Daughter, if you knew who you really were, you would not say that!"
And such was the Bhavana of that saying, that at the back of the
room a yoga teacher raised her arms as the Kundalini coursed through
her, shaking and crying and utterly blessed!!
I remember the walk on the full moon night just a few days ago when
we took the inner path of Parikrama around the sacred slopes of
Arunacahala. When as the sun set at six pm we took ourselves away.
Away from the 100,000 people who regularly clockwise walk the 14km
around the Sacred Mountain on each full moon night.
In the heat of the night we took the inner path, alone on rubble
strewn roads, past ancient Temples, over rocks, through forests,
past the irrigation lakes with their sacred steps down into the
waters where in bathing, in the light of the moon, alone with the
Sacred Mountain, we raised our energies that night.
So, on to the beach and the purity of Kerala and its forests, tiger
and elephant reserves, its backwater tours and Ayurvedic Massages and the Magic that is India.
And the Sacred White Purity of Meditation that is the Taj Mahal.

And not only that, this is also the way of Psychic Powers for the

Treading the path of your Soul. That work which makes you truly happy!!
Recently we met Michael, a German Sannyasin, a monk, who is named
the Old Man of Gokula Beach where he lives in a hut on the beach
with nothing. A Shiva site and temple in Karnataka where the beach
is in the shape of an OM sign!! He was telling me of his Enlightenment
back in 1983 and by bringing together the energy of the Alta Major
Center and Ajna Center he transmitted the experience of that Enlightenment
to me whilst sitting together in the Lonely Planet Vegetarian Restaurant.
As our Energy Grew together we cried as tears rained down our cheeks as the Heart Opened.
Although he radiates this energy to all who meet him he was very
happy to be with me for a while as “So few people understand”.
We sat the evening radiating the Light of the Soul together. Such a happy meeting!!
So, here we are on the Beach at Kovalam, Kerala, South India. Surrounded
by Coconut Palm Trees which fringe the beach we are staying at the
Hilton Beach Resort with Television, Internet, Air Conditioning
and Swimming Pool as well as being 30 yards from the beach and the
lighthouse which beams light whirling above our heads every night.
The air is warm and humid, around 31 Centigrade which enables us
to walk around without the coats and coverings so normal in wintery
Europe or USA. The locals just walk around in lunghis which are
cloths wrapped around their hips and legs like skirts and, like
going to a Hindu Temple, bare chested, with nothing to hide. All
the ladies traditionally wear Saris or sometimes Kurtas which are exotic and beautiful.
This Earth is so Beautiful........
Learn to become a Teacher of Energy Enhancement and travel the World Teaching Yoga and Reiki also.
We are hoping to do another 5Star Energy Enhancement Taj Mahal Tour
Soon but you will be very welcome to visit us on the beach.
Energy Enhancement is an Integral Part
of the Tour- it will enable us to feel the energies of the places visited
As time and circumstances permit, we
will have a daily practise of some of the preliminary stages of Energy Enhancement - Yoga,
breathing, Dance and Meditation.

Testimonials For
Elegant Energy
Enhancement in India
This testimonial has been provided by
Pierre Morency after his Tour to the Taj Mahal with us in
July 1999 when we stayed at the Five Star Hotel Trident in Agra - see the photos
above. We remember the perfect time we spent at this hotel, the Air Conditioned
Rooms, The Elegant Restaurant and particularly our time spent in the pool at
cool midnight talking about Enlightenment.
Pierre is a previous member of International Consultants, McKinsey and Company.
Management Consultants who recruit mainly Rhodes Scholars, universally used by all major
International Companies for consultation and as a selection ground for future Chief
Executive Officers, CEO's.
Energy Enhancement proves its use for
all levels of business and professionals - in fact for anyone who wants to access their
inherent energies. Energy Enhancement speeds up the process of gaining more Energy!
Pierre came on one of our Energy
Enhancement Training Adventures in India, visiting the Taj
Mahal and the Foothills of the Himalayas and travelling from his home in Canada. Usually
we go for two weeks for one Level of Energy Enhancement, learning the Techniques in 5Star
Hotels. Pierre learnt Two Levels of Energy Enhancement. The process he describes in his case was very quick as is his nature.
Pierre himself is a marketing
consultant to many International Companies and CEO's.
PIERRE MORENCY - Here's my promised testimonial:
"Last June, I had the privilege
to get my first taste of India in the Company of two wonderful, knowledgeable and fun
people, Satchi and Devi. From day one, they were able to
stabilize me in this strange and mysterious country.
Being a marketing speaker and a
meditation practitioner, I didn't really know what to expect from my 2 week training. What
I discovered was a powerful systematic way of practicing meditation and other Energy
Enhancement methods.
I'm in the process of fully
testing the techniques and approaches I've learned but can already feel - and prove!-
tremendous changes in my life.
For instance, since I've been working
on "cleaning my base chakra" (The Grounding of Negative Energies -Satchidanand)
everything around me seems to be going through a massive cleansing process - Only 2 days after I returned to Canada from
India, a chain reaction of events led my to change my 5 employees, change some of my major
accounts and delay a move to the United States. 10 weeks after the program, things are
stabilizing.
Looking back, I think the
cleansing process probably saved my business and my marriage.
Thank you Satchi and Devi.

THE
ART OF LOVE...
You
have been told to love others, but you have never been told to love yourself.
And you can love others only if you have loved yourself in the first place: if
you don't love yourself you cannot love anybody else in the world. Loving
yourself, you learn the art of love. And if you can love yourself with all your
imperfections you will be able to love other human beings with all their
imperfections. If you cannot love yourself with your imperfections, how are you
going to love others with their imperfections? You will hate them!
The first question:
Question 1
OSHO,
WHY CAN'T I SAY YES TO MYSELF? I
HAVE THE FEELING THAT ALL MY MISERY IS ROOTED IN THIS INCAPACITY.
ANAND RENATA,
It is one of the greatest problems.
Every human being has to face it, because the whole society up to now has been
based on self-condemnation. All the religions, all the societies, all the
cultures create a tremendous guilt in you that you are not what you should be.
They give you perfectionist ideals to fulfill which are impossible. They simply
drive you crazy.
Perfectionism is the root cause of
all neurosis. Nobody can be perfect -- nobody NEED be perfect; life is beautiful
because everything is imperfect. Perfection is death; imperfection is life. It
is because of imperfection that growth is possible. If you are perfect then
there is no growth, no movement. Then nothing can happen to you; all has already
happened. You will be utterly dead.
Hence I say God is the most
imperfect phenomenon because God is the most evolving factor in existence and
evolution and perfection are against each other. It is because of this that all
the religions have been against the idea of evolution. Christianity condemned
Darwin and his philosophy as much as possible. The reason was this: Christianity
believed in a perfect God, and a perfect God can create only a perfect world.
How can imperfection come out of a perfect creator? Then there is no possibility
of evolution. If the possibility of evolution is accepted, then the world, the
creation, is imperfect and ultimately it will lead to the logical conclusion
that the creator is imperfect.
No religion has dared to declare
that God is imperfect, but I declare that God is imperfect because imperfection
means evolution, imperfection means life, imperfection means flow, growth. And
God is infinitely imperfect; he will never become perfect. The moment he becomes
perfect the whole existence will disappear into nonexistence.
But because of this idea of a
perfect God we have all been trying for centuries to be perfect, and there are
two outcomes of it. One is: if you are simple, innocent, you will start TRYING
to be perfect and you will go neurotic. And you can never become perfect, hence
you will carry a mountainous burden of guilt. It will crush you, it will destroy
all your joy in life, it will poison you. It won't allow you to celebrate, to
sing, to dance. It is suicidal. Or if you are not innocent and simple, if you
are cunning and clever, then you will become a hypocrite. You will talk about
perfection; that will be just a facade, a mask, and hidden behind the mask you
will go on being whatsoever you are.
Both are ugly phenomena. Going
crazy, becoming, neurotic, guilt-ridden is ugly; becoming a hypocrite is ugly.
But your so-called religions leave you no other alternative: they all talk about
saying yes, but they all teach you saying no. They all think they are theistic
-- they are all atheistic, because to me atheism means a deep-rooted no and
theism means a fundamental yes to life. Theism has nothing to do with God, nor
has atheism anything to do with the denial of God. Theism is saying yes to life
with all its imperfections, as it is, saying yes to it with no conditions, with
no strings attached. And atheism to me means saying no to life as it is and
trying to make it better, trying to make it perfect.
Renata, you say: WHY CAN 'T I SAY
YES TO MYSELF?
Because you have been told you are
all wrong, you are nothing but a sinner. Everything that you do is wrong,
everything that you think is wrong, everything that you are is wrong -- how can
you say yes to yourself? You have been given ideas, great ideals, shoulds:
"You should be like this, like that..." And you go on comparing
yourself with those stupid ideals. Of course, you fall very short, and when you
fall very short you start feeling a deep no to yourself you want to destroy
yourself; you cannot love yourself.
You have been told to love others,
but you have never been told to love yourself. And you can love others only if
you have loved yourself in the first place: if you don't love yourself you
cannot love anybody else in the world. Loving yourself, you learn the art of
love. And if you can love yourself with all your imperfections you will be able
to love other human beings with all their imperfections. If you cannot love
yourself with your imperfections, how are you going to love others with their
imperfections? You will hate them!
Parents hate their children,
children hate their parents, wives hate their husbands, husbands hate their
wives, for the simple reason that they can see the imperfections. Everybody is
in search of a perfect person and you will not find a perfect person anywhere,
except some fools who go on claiming that they are infallible, perfect. Pope
John Paul the Polack, he is infallible! Popes are infallible. They represent God
-- how can they be fallible? In India Satya Sai Baba claims to be infallible.
Now, to me these are utter idiots! They have no sense of any manners, of any
etiquette even; they don't have any intelligence. Otherwise they could see -- it
is so simple. But it is a traditional thing.
Jainas in India have claimed that
Mahavira is all-knowing. Buddha laughed at the whole idea. He was an intelligent
man, a really penetrating intelligence, but he never claimed that he was
infallible. No intelligent person can do that. He laughed at the whole idea that
Mahavira was infallible. We don't know what was Mahavira's own statement about
it because according to the Jaina tradition he remained silent, he never said a
single word. There were interpreters of his silence who were telling people what
he meant. I cannot conceive that he would have ever meant that he was
infallible. A man of such intelligence as Mahavira could not do that.
Buddha says, "I have heard:
Mahavira going for a morning walk steps on a dog's tail, and when the dog barks
then he comes to know that there is a dog -- because it is still dark in the
morning. And this is the all-knowing man who knows past, present, future, and he
does not know that he is stepping on the tail of a dog!"
Buddha has said, "I know that
Mahavira has many times stood begging in front of a house where nobody lives;
the house has been empty for years. Only when people say to him that 'This house
is empty, nobody lives here,' will he move to another house to beg."
And the followers claim that he
knows past, present and future, that he knows everything, that he is omniscient,
that he is omnipotent, that he is all-powerful. But he suffered throughout his
life from stomach diseases, he died of stomach diseases -- it may have been
something like a stomach cancer, the word "cancer" was not known in
those days -- and he is thought to be omnipotent and he is thought to be
omnipresent: all the qualities of God. But these are the claims of the
followers. That I can understand: followers are stupid people, otherwise why
should they follow?
I don't have any followers here.
You are all my friends. I don't want any followers because I don't want to live
surrounded by fools!
But Satya Sai Baba declares that he
is infallible, that he knows all, that he has never committed a mistake that he
cannot commit a mistake. Now these are all maniacs. Ego cannot be more mad.
Perfection is not possible. You are
imperfect, and there is nothing wrong in being imperfect; this is the only way
to be. Once you accept your imperfection you have accepted your humanity, and in
that acceptance the yes arises. And then you can love yourself and you can love
others too, because they are as imperfect as you are.
Renata, you are still trying to
live according to the ideas given by your parents to you. In that way all
parents have poisoned their children for thousands of years; that poisoning
still continues. And once a child is poisoned, from the very beginning he starts
thinking it IS his own idea. It gets so deep-rooted -- it goes to the very guts
-- that you completely forget that it has been implanted from the outside. And
then you try to live it out. You cannot manage it, and it will mess up your
whole life.
One Indian friend has asked: "Osho,
nothing moves without the will of God, not even a single blade of grass..."
These are his actual words:
Question 2
OSHO, WHEN YOU SAY THAT NOT A
SINGLE BLADE OF GRASS MOVES BUT BY HIS WILL, WHY IS THERE A METAL DETECTOR AND
SO MANY SECURITY ARRANGEMENTS HERE?
The questioner is Prakash Singh
Madhuban. It is because of his will! If not a single blade of grass moves, how
can the metal detector move? It is so simple! If not a single blade of grass
moves, how can so many guards move? But he thinks he is asking a very wise
question. He must be thinking he is asking something which is unanswerable.
You know nothing of God nor of his
will, but you go on repeating cliches. You have heard these things and you start
repeating them like gramophone records. You don't see the absurdity of it. If it
is your understanding, the question cannot arise. The question is absolutely
meaningless if it is your understanding. But it is not YOUR understanding;
somebody else has planted it in you. And all parents are doing it. and I am not
saying that they are doing it knowingly; they are as unconscious as you are.
These ideas have been planted in them by others, their parents, and so on and so
forth. But you have to jump out of this vicious circle.
Renata, your name is so beautiful
-- it means rebirth. Being here with me you have to go through a process of
being reborn, and the first step will be to drop all the ideas that have been
imposed upon you. The roses are beautiful because they are not carrying the idea
that they have to be as big as the lotus flowers; otherwise they will be
miserable, they will stop growing -- they will shrink in shame, ashamed of
themselves. They are beautiful, fragrant, for the simple reason that whatsoever
they are, they are. The marigold flowers are not worried why they are not roses.
Even the blades of grass are not at all ashamed of not being big trees like the
cedars of Lebanon. They are perfectly happy as they are.
A man came to a Zen monk and he
asked, "Why are you always so blissful? Why am I not so blissful?"
The Master said, "Wait. When
everybody else has left, then I will answer your question."
The man waited and waited because
people were coming and going and there was not a single moment of aloneness. He
was getting tired and impatient and many times he thought to leave, because
"When is this thing going to stop? People are still coming."
But by the evening when the sun was
setting, everybody had left and he was alone with the Master. He reminded him,
"Now please tell me."
He said, "Look outside the
window. You see this big tree?"
He said, "Yes, I see it."
And he said, "You see that
small bush by the side?"
He said, "Yes, I see that
too."
The Master said, "I have never
heard the bush saying to the big tree, 'Why are you so big and I am so small?'
That's why both are happy. The tree is big and the bush is small, but so what?
Both are unique. They don't compare themselves -- and they are standing side by
side. And for fifteen years I have been trying to find out why they don't
compare themselves. They are perfectly happy; BOTH are happy.
"You are unhappy because you
are comparing, you are living in comparison. And I am happy because I have
dropped all comparison; I have simply accepted myself as I am. That is my simple
secret."
And you are constantly comparing.
Somebody else is more beautiful than you, somebody else has more beautiful eyes
than you, somebody else has more beautiful hair than you, somebody else is more
strong than you, somebody else seems to be more intelligent than you, somebody
else has something else, and so on and so forth... there is no end to it! You
will become more and more miserable.
And you have been told:
"Become like Jesus." "Become like Buddha." "Become like
Krishna." You will be miserable. Buddha never tried to become like Krishna,
that's why he was happy. Krishna never tried to become like anybody else, that's
why he was happy. Krishna never tried to become like anybody else, that's why he
was happy. Jesus never tried to become like Moses, that's why he was happy --
even on the cross he was happy. And you are constantly trying to be somebody
else.
These ideals have to be dropped;
they have to be destroyed completely. And then, Renata, a deep and profound yes
will arise from the depths of your being. It will fill you with tremendous
fulfillment.
And, to me, this is religion. This
yes filling your whole being, overflowing you, is religion. Right now you are
full of no's thousand and one no's; about everything there is a no, and that's
what is making your life a hell. You have to be alert because you have to get
rid of all this rubbish that has been poured upon you by your parents, by your
society, by your church. And it hurts if something is taken away because you
have believed in it for a long time; it has become almost part of your blood,
your bone, your marrow. It hurts, although it is just pus and nothing else; but
to take it away hurts.
One old woman took sannyas in
America; she must have taken sannyas for wrong reasons. Many people take sannyas
for wrong reasons. They become aware of it only later on when there arises some
clash between their idea of sannyas and my vision of sannyas. And she was
writing beautiful letters, very poetic. The reason deep down that she became a
sannyasin was because she was reading my books on Jesus; THE MUSTARD SEED was
the thing that moved her deeply. But it was not me; it was because of Jesus. She
became convinced of Jesus' truth, and because I had helped her, she became a
lover of me.
Then just yesterday her letter
arrived. She is very disturbed: what to do now? Because in some tapes she has
heard that I have said that in old days there were records, there are written
records, about Jesus' physical appearance saying that he was an ugly man, that
his height was only four feet five inches, and not only that, he was a hunchback
and his face was disgusting. Now she is shocked. Now she says, "I want to
go back to my old Master Jesus. I don't want to remain a sannyasin anymore. Now
this was the time for her to get free of a conditioning. She missed the
opportunity. Going back she will be the same as has always been. A moment had
come when a door opened, but she turned away.
Many of you are here for wrong
reasons, and if you are here for wrong reasons you will be in trouble sooner or
later. I am going to disturb you, disturb all your dreams, disturb all your
ideals. I am going to put dynamite inside you! My whole work consists in
sabotage. Once I can destroy all your ideals that you have carried all along,
once I can make you free of all the jargon that you have learned from others,
once I am able to uncondition you, then you will be able to say yes to yourself.
Every tree says yes to itself;
every animal, every bird says yes. Nobody is needed to teach it. The no is
taught; yes is natural. Yes is part of Tao; no is a conditioning.
Renata, you have felt rightly that:
I HAVE THE FEELING THAT ALL MY MISERY IS ROOTED IN THIS INCAPACITY.
That is true. That is the beginning
of a tremendous journey; you have felt the right direction. Now go on moving
into it. It will take time and it will take effort and it will be an agony;
before the ecstasy can happen you will have to pass through many agonies. That
is the price we have to pay. But once you have gathered courage enough to drop
your whole past -- Christian, Hindu, Mohammedan, Jaina, Buddhist -- once you are
unconditioned, your life becomes a flow, a beautiful flow. And then the ocean is
not far away. Every river reaches to it with no maps, with no guides. Every
river reaches to it naturally, spontaneously. That is the way of Tao.
The second question:
Question 3
OSHO, I DON'T WANT TO TAKE SANNYAS
BECAUSE I BELIEVE IN THE PHILOSOPHY OF DO-IT-YOURSELF. WHAT HAVE YOU TO SAY
ABOUT IT?
ANGELO,
WHY ARE YOU ASKING ME? Do it
yourself! What is the need to know my opinion? And if you don't want to take
sannyas, why the question at all in the first place? There must be some deep
hidden desire in you to take sannyas; otherwise, the question is irrelevant --
it cannot arise at all. The very question shows that some longing has arisen in
you to take the jump. But you are afraid to accept the longing, you are trying
to rationalize that you can do it yourself, you are trying to repress a certain
desire that must be becoming more and more strong every day.
Sannyas simply means a quantum leap
into the unknown. The mind lives in the known; it moves within the known. It
goes in circles, round and round; it is repetitive. It cannot enter into any
communion with the new, with the unknown, with the unknowable. Sannyas is a
jump. It is like a snake slipping out of its old skin. You must be getting tired
of your old skin, you must be dragging it. And you must be seeing people here
rejoicing in their new birth. And the longing must be arising in you too: why
not take the jump?
But the courage is lacking. The
desire is there, the courage is not there. But you want to deny the desire
because nobody wants to accept that he is a coward. It is better to deny the
desire itself; then you can avoid the idea of being a coward. Everybody wants at
least to pretend to others, and to himself too, if possible, that one is a
courageous man -- if one wants to do something one will do it: "But I don't
want to do it in the first place. That's what is preventing me, otherwise nobody
can prevent me."
But why are you asking? From where
does the question arise? I have not asked you to become a sannyasin. I didn't
even know that you were here. You could have gone without making yourself known,
without asking the question. And if you cannot gather enough courage, at least
be honest enough to accept that you are a coward.
The desire is there. Don't repress
the desire, because the first act of courage is to accept your cowardice. Once
you accept it, it starts dying. It can remain only if it is not accepted. Once
it is brought into the light of acceptance it can't exist for long; it becomes
impossible for it to exist for long.
You say: I BELIEVE IN THE
PHILOSOPHY OF DO-IT-YOURSELF.
How will you do it? What will you
do? You don't know anything about sannyas. It is an absolutely new concept.
Nothing like it has ever existed in the whole history of humanity. Yes, there
have been Hindu monks, Buddhist monks, Christian monks, Jaina monks, but they
were all life-negative.
My sannyas is life-affirmative.
Nothing like this has ever flowered on the earth. It is a totally new
phenomenon. All the old ideas about sannyas were based on escapism, on
renunciation. My sannyas has nothing to do with escape, it is AGAINST escape,
because to me God and life are synonymous. It has never been said that God and
life are synonymous. God has always been put AGAINST life: you have to drop life
to attain God. And I say to you, you have to live as totally as possible, as
intensely as possible, as passionately as possible if you want to know God at
all, because there is no other God than life.
God to me is not a person; it is
another name for life energy. This distant call of the cuckoo, this is God. Your
silence, this is God. The birds chirping, this is God. God is not
"somewhere", God is everywhere. In fact, "God" is not the
right word; but all our languages are addicted to nouns -- they always change
verbs into nouns.
My effort here is to do just the
opposite: to change every noun into a verb. There is no God as a person, but
there is godliness -- a quality, a certain flavor, a certain experiencing;
alive, flowing, not confined within boundaries.
You don't know what it is. How are
you going to do it? Yes, I have heard about the philosophy of
doing-it-yourself...
The main trend of the fifties was
to do-it-yourself.
Around Easter time, an ad appeared
in The New York Times: "Do Easter at home for only five thousand
dollars!"
Mr. Jones sent the five thousand
dollars and received a parcel with: a box of nails, two wooden beams, one
measuring three meters and the other measuring one meter and eighty centimeters,
and a blonde Jew, thirty-three years old.
Angelo, what will you do by
yourself? You don't know even the abc of it. You will need to become part of a
Buddhafield. You will need to become part of a place where many many people are
growing. Alone in a desert you cannot bloom; you will need to become part of a
garden.
This is the garden of a Master
where many trees are growing, here many trees are coming to a flowering, to
fruition. The seed in you will start having a tremendous confidence in itself
that "If it can happen to other seeds, if this miracle is possible, then it
is possible for me too."
It is possible only in a certain
commune. That's why all the awakened ones have always created communes, simply
so that you can see what is possible and you can see people in all kinds of
stages: the beginners, the people who have gone a little ahead, the people who
have gone far, the people who are almost reaching the climax, and the people who
have blossomed.
When the seed sees all this it
becomes confident. Otherwise there persists a self-doubt. "Who knows
whether I have the potential or not?"
To be a sannyasin simply means to
fall into a kind of synchronicity. Musicians are aware of it. You can do a small
experiment. In an empty room, close the room completely. In one corner of the
room, an absolutely empty room, put one sitar, and you sit exactly in the
opposite corner and start playing on another sitar. And you will be surprised
that as you start playing on your sitar, the other sitar, which is just resting
against the wall in a corner -- and there is nobody to play it -- starts falling
into a certain synchronicity. Its strings start vibrating; it starts creating
certain sounds. This is a well known fact. And if the musician is really great
he can almost create music on the other sitar also, which he has not even
touched. But what happens to the other sitar? The vibration that is filling the
whole room is caught by it.
When a commune gathers around a
Master, a certain vibration is there -- very tangible to those who are
sensitive, aware, loving, surrendered, committed; who are not just outsiders,
observers; who are not just standing by and trying to see what is happening but
who are courageous enough to become part of it. Then your heart starts falling
in tune with the heart of the Master. And where thousands of hearts are
functioning in the same rhythm, beating in the same rhythm, you cannot resist
the temptation. That's the only way to grow towards the unknown. Sannyas is a
mysterious journey.
And, Angelo, in your ordinary,
unconscious state you will not be able to do it by yourself.
Four drunken Italians stumbled into
a funeral parlor. After bumbling around for a half hour, one of them fell over a
piano.
"Here's the coffin," he
advised his friends.
One of them peered at the piano.
"Do you recognize him?"
the first one asked.
"No," admitted the other
drunk, "but he sure has a good set of teeth!"
Angelo, you are an Italian...
forget all about doing it by yourself!
Two Italians were going home after
a night full of wine to discover that the last bus to Rome had left. For a few
moments they staggered around the big hall in which all the buses were parked
and then one of them said, "Why don't-a you get-a inside and-a steal a bus.
I'll keep-a an eye on-a the street to see if-a the police is-a coming."
The first one agreed and
disappeared in the hall. Soon an awful screeching, bumping and crashing was
heard. This lasted for half an hour, when the doors swung open and a bus drove
out.
"What the hell-a took you so
long-a?" exclaimed the one who had been waiting outside.
"Well," replied the
other, "the bus-a to Roma was all-a the way in the back!"
The third question:
Question 4
OSHO,
WHY DID YOU NEVER GET MARRIED?
DHEERENDRA,
JUST BECAUSE I AM NOT MAD!
Jesus was standing in front of a
full-length mirror admiring his complexion and clear eyes. He brushed his long
hair, oiled it and arranged it in a braid. Then he plucked his eyebrows and
combed his blonde moustache.
Mary was watching him. 'My son' she
sighed 'you are so handsome... you should really get married! "
"Me! Married?" cried
Jesus. "I would rather be nailed to a cross!"
The fourth question:
Question 5
OSHO,
YOUR JOKES MAKE ME AFRAID AND
CONFUSED. PLEASE TELL ME ONE OF BUDDHA'S SUTRAS ABOUT GOD.
P.S. I'M LEAVING FOR ITALY
TOMORROW. THANK YOU.
ANAND SATYAM,
I CAN UNDERSTAND -- jokes are
dangerous. That's why no Master before me has ever touched them. But I love
danger. Jokes have a tremendous beauty if you can allow them to enter into your
very innermost core. No sutras can reach there, because when you are hearing a
sutra you start falling asleep. It is very difficult to keep oneself awake
hearing sutras for the simple reason that sutras are serious, dry, like the
desert. How long can you look at the desert? Sooner or later you will start
yawning, because it is the same desert going up to the very horizon -- on all
sides it is all sand and sand and sand, and the scene is exactly the same. The
sutras are exactly the same; they are desertlike. They create sleep: they
function like lullabies. If you suffer from sleeplessness, then reading a few
sutras of Buddha or Patanjali will be very helpful. Just read a few sutras --
you are bound to fall asleep. When all tranquilizers fail, sutras work.
That's what the hypnotists go on
doing: they simply repeat a certain sutra. Anything repeated again and again
creates such boredom that you have to escape from it. And the easiest escape is
into sleep.
Mulla Nasruddin suffered very much
from sleeplessness. All efforts failed -- all the tranquilizers, the sleeping
pills; nothing worked. His sons were getting very worried. Finally they found a
hypnotist who said, "Don't worry, I will come tonight." And he came,
and he started simply repeating: "You are falling asleep..."
Nasruddin was lying down on the bed
with closed eyes, the lights were out, and the hypnotist was repeating again and
again, "You are falling asleep... your eyelids are becoming heavier,
heavier, heavier... you are falling asleep, falling asleep, falling asleep... a
deep sleep is taking over..."
Nasruddin started snoring. The
hypnotist tiptoed out of the room.
The sons were very happy. They
handed him double his fees, thanked him very much. They went in to see.
Nasruddin opened one of his eyes and said, "Has that idiot left yet or not?
He would have killed me, hence I had to pretend! That snoring was just false. I
was faking it so that he would leave me!"
Sutras are boring. That's why only
old people who are already dead go to religious discourses. You can see them in
all the churches and temples.
When people come to visit this
ashram they are surprised to see so many young people. It is unbelievable
because young people are not supposed to be in such places. Only old people,
dead, rotten, leading some kind of posthumous existence, are supposed to be in
such places. So many young people -- what are these young people doing here?
They are not here for the sutras, Satyam. I am here for the sutras, they are not
here for the sutras. So we have made a compromise: they have to listen to a few
sutras and I have to tell a few jokes. They will be here for the jokes, I am
here for the sutras! If I stop telling jokes, they will disappear. If I have to
tell only jokes, I will not be needed. I can leave a big collection of jokes and
Teertha can read the jokes; there will be no need for me to be here. If you want
me to be here you will have to hear a few sutras, and if I want you to be here,
I have to tell a few jokes too. This is understood, this is a contract.
Jokes are tremendously important in
a way. Jokes are not simple phenomena; they are really mysterious, their
mechanism is mysterious. You don't know how a joke works, how it goes deep into
your depths, how it brings laughter to you, how it brings wakefulness to you.
The mechanism IS mysterious.
A joke functions almost like a
sexual orgasm. It is not accidental that many jokes ARE concerned with sex.
Jokes as such are basically sexual for the simple reason that the joke creates a
build-up of energy in you, a great curiosity about what is going to happen,
because a joke is a joke only when something unexpected happens, when it takes
such a sudden turn that logically you could not have conceived it; it was
inconceivable. And it takes the turn so quickly and so suddenly that it does not
give you time enough to think about it. Because there is no time to think...
Mind needs time. The joke goes on towards the south and then suddenly turns
towards the north: your mind goes on moving towards the south, but the joke has
taken a turn towards the north so suddenly that the mind halts. In that very
halt there is an experience of silence, of meditation.

Take your time,
this site has much new wonderful information.
The same happens in sexual
orgasm: a certain energy is built up in you, a certain tension is built up in
you. You go on moving upwards, upwards, upwards, and then comes a sudden
relaxation, a sudden release. It is so sudden -- it happens in a single moment
-- the mind stops, the mind disappears for a moment. It is not conceivable for
the mind. The mind needs time.
If you understand the joke you will
miss the whole point. If you can understand where it is going, what the logical
end of it will be, then it will not be a joke for you. Whatsoever you understand
from the very beginning is not going to be the end; the end is going to be
absolutely unpredictable.
That's the beauty of a joke; it
shocks you, shakes you, it wakes you up. It is impossible to remain asleep when
a beautiful joke is being told.
Buddha goes on telling his
disciples, "Wake up!" What is the need? I simply tell a joke and they
wake up! And that is far more existential.
An aircraft bound for Florida with
two hundred and forty passengers on board ran into some engine problem. The
plane was sure to crash so the pilot alerted all the crew members about this sad
state of affairs and told them all to get hold of a parachute each and jump off
the plane.
A young steward asked the captain,
"What about the passengers, sir?"
"Fuck the passengers!"
the captain replied.
Said the steward, "What! Do we
have time for that?"
You say, Satyam: YOUR JOKES MAKE ME
AFRAID...
Because they must be shattering
many things in you. You must be thinking religion is serious. It is not -- at
least my vision of religion is not serious at all. My religion is rooted in
playfulness, in non-seriousness; sincere, of course, but serious, never. My
religion is laughter, love. It is not renunciation, it is rejoicing.
I am not concerned with God at all,
and you are asking me for one of Buddha's sutras about God. In fact, Buddha
never believed in God; he has no sutra about God. Buddha is absolutely atheistic
in that sense: he never believed in God. Buddha was not so childish as to
believe in God the Father who created the world and who lives in heaven. These
are all fictions, fairy tales.
Every month St. Peter and Lucifer
meet to divide the newly arrived souls between them.
"What is your name?" St.
Peter asks.
"Karl Marx," replies a
white-bearded soul.
"Ah! You are an atheist.
Therefore you will be going to hell."
The next month, to St. Peter's
great amazement, Lucifer is late. This had never happened before. After a few
hours Lucifer arrives in a horrible state -- one of his horns is broken, his
tail is burnt, his complexion is pale.
"What is the matter with
you?" St. Peter asks.
"Oh my God! That Marx, you
know? He has created fucking hell! He began by complaining that it was too hot,
and then that there was not enough air and then that the place was unhealthy. To
make a long story short, after a few strikes, protests and demonstrations, I had
to follow air conditioning, massages in the breaks between torture sessions,
thermostats to keep the heating system under control! Peter, I am at a loss.
Help me! Could you take care of him for the next month to give me some
space?"
"What! Marx in heaven! Have
you gone crazy or what?"
"Do it for my sake, Peter!
Remember, we have been friends for eternity!"
"But I just cannot!"
replies St. Peter. "Marx amongst all the angels and saints! Can you imagine
it?"
"One month only, Peter,
please."
"Well, okay. Just because you
are my friend I will keep him -- but for one month only!"
Next month St. Peter and Lucifer
are both punctual. Lucifer eagerly asks, "So, Peter, how are things
going?"
"Oh, fine thanks,
Lucifer."
"Fine? What about Marx?"
"Oh, that Marx! Nice
chap!"
"You mean he did not raise any
protest?"
"Oh never! We had many
pleasant discussions together. He is a cultured man."
"Indeed? But what does God
say?"
"Oh, come on, Lucifer, You
know God doesn't exist!"
Satyam, Buddha has not sutras about
God. He was the first mature religious person in the whole world. He talks in
terms of maturity, not in terms of childishness.
And you say: I AM LEAVING FOR ITALY
TOMORROW...
Then it will be good if you take
this joke with you:
Two village boys from Sicily go to
visit their cousin in New York. On the third day of being shown around downtown
New York they somehow get separated from the cousin. After looking for him for a
few hours they finally end up in a police station.
"Please-a, sir, can-a you
fin-a our cousin?"
"What's his name?" the
police officer asks.
"Gino."
"Gino who?"
"Don't-a know-a"
"Where does he live?"
"In New York-a."
"What does he look like?"
"A man-a."
"Where did you lose him?"
"Don't-a know-a."
"Is there anything special
about his features? A flat nose? One eye? Something like that?"
The two boys think hard but sadly
shake their heads. Then the face of one brightens slowly and he says "Ah,
yes-a sir, he has-a two assholes!"
"Two assholes!" exclaims
the policeman "Are you sure? How do you know?"
"Well-a," replies the
boy, "every time we go to eat-a spaghetti or dance-a at the disco, his
friends say-a, 'Look! There's Gino with-a the two-a assholes!'"
Satyam, go to Italy, but come back
soon, because the whole of Italy has come here! All the juicy people have
disappeared from Italy; they are here.
Just the other day I was reading a
newspaper report from Italy about so many young people, young men and women,
having disappeared from Italy that the government has become concerned about
what is happening to them. They need not be concerned, they need not go anywhere
to look for them, they can come here -- they are all here! Either they have come
or they are on the way, but they are all going to end up here. What will you be
doing there Satyam? Come back soon -- as soon as possible!
Italy will look very non-Italian to
you. We have made a compact Italy here, and far more juicy! Slowly slowly my
jokes will help you to come to your senses; they will help you to come out of
your confusion. There is nothing more healthy than a good laughter, there is
nothing more sane than a good laughter. Laughter is very vital.
I would like my sannyasins to be
laughing sannyasins. I would like the world to know my people as the most
laughing, dancing, singing people. I don't want any sad, serious-looking people
here. I don't want any long faces here. Yes, when you come you come with a long
face, but then I have to hit you and sooner or later you lose your mask --
because that is only a mask.
No child is born with a long face;
every child is born with laughter, with a great joy which is ready to explode.
We destroy his joy. My effort here is to release that joy again, to bring your
childhood back to you.
The fifth question:
Question 6
OSHO,
I THINK I KNOW
THAT IF I KNEW
HOW MUCH YOU GIVE
THE AGONY OF THE ECSTASY
WOULD KILL ME.
DHARMA CHETANA,
IT IS TOO LATE! YOU have been
killed already, but the recognition comes always too late, when the work is
finished. I do my surgery in such a way that you become aware only when you
start missing your appendix, tonsils, and head, and everything... when you are
just a hollow bamboo!
Now Dharma Chetana is a hollow
bamboo. Now she is ready. Now the whole can sing any song through her. The only
way to be reborn is to be crucified.
The eastern scriptures say the
Master is death, and they are right. The Master is a death, but that is only a
half-statement. The other half is that the Master is also a resurrection.
The sixth question:
Question 7
OSHO,
WHERE IS MY HEART?
PREM PANKAJA,
IT IS THE SAME QUESTION. I have
taken it out! Now you will never find it. Everything has to be taken out because
all that you are carrying inside -- your mind, your heart -- is just junk! You
call it antique furniture, maybe; I call it simply junk. I am not interested in
antiques at all, no; my whole interest is in the absolutely new.
Mukta wanted to bring an antique
Rolls Royce for me. I said, "Mukta, I am not interested in antiques at
all!"
She said, "Osho, it is very
beautiful! It is a 1939 model, with gold," et cetera.
I said, "Forget all about it!
I am interested only in the latest."
Now Sheela is bringing a Lincoln
Continental for me. I told her, "Bring a 1981 model."
She said, "Osho, where will I
find a 1981 model? It is 1980!"
I said, "You try! By the time
you find it, it will be 1981!"
And the last question:
Question 8
OSHO, I AM VERY IMPATIENT, I WANT
TO KNOW GOD, BUT I DON'T WANT TO WASTE MY TIME IN SEARCH OF HIM. CAN YOU SHOW ME
A SHORT CUT?
A YOUNG MAN once came to a
venerable Master and asked, "How long will it take to reach
enlightenment?"
The Master said, "Ten
years."
The young man blurted, "So
long?"
The Master said, "No, I was
mistaken. It will take twenty years."
The young man asked, "Why do
you keep adding to it?"
And the Master answered, "Come
to think of it, in your case it will probably be thirty!"
Dharmesh, there are no shortcuts.
And if you are impatient you will never find. Patience is the only way, and if
you are absolutely patient you can find right now. This is the ultimate paradox
of religious inquiry, of the search for truth, for God, for NIRVANA: if you are
impatient you will have to wait for eternity. That venerable Master must have
been a very polite man; he said only thirty years. But to tell you the truth, if
you are impatient you will have to wait forever and forever. If you are patient,
totally patient, then it is possible even now -- THIS VERY MOMENT, HERE AND NOW!
Don't ask for any shortcut,
Dharmesh. There has never been any shortcut; there cannot be any shortcut to
truth. You cannot have it cheap. And patience means love because only love can
be patient. Love can wait -- love knows how to wait. It can wait forever, and
because it can wait forever it becomes capable of receiving the gift right now.
Two students were talking to each
other. One of them bragged about all the women he got to go to bed with him.
"How do you get so many women
do to it? What is your secret?" asked the other student.
"Well, this is how I do it.
All I do is paint a white circle on my dashboard. The girl will usually ask
about it. Then we'll start talking. I'll start referring to the color white and
all the things associated with it -- virginity, purity, chastity. Then the
conversation will expand. We'll talk about the purity of the saints and Tantra
Yoga, etcetera. It all depends on how good you can talk. Just use the white
circle and go on from there. You shouldn't have too much trouble getting them to
do it."
The friend followed his advice and
painted a white circle on his dashboard, then went and picked up his date. When
she got into the car she noticed the white circle on the dashboard.
"That's really an interesting
circle on your dashboard," she said.
