You are deep inside the jungle of Space and Time. Your job, relationships, physical well-being hobbies, adventures etc. are like sweet and sour fruits, vegetables and leaves. You are not able to enjoy them because you are thirsty of water, i.e. nothingness.

There are no colours. There are things and light that appear to have colours. Our mind labels them as Red, Green, Blue etc. But they too are just labels, not colours. Colours are non-existent. But non-existence is more real and alive than existence. Your real self (soul) resides in non-existence.

Quote
Everything is dual (two) in the world: high-low, good-bad, hot-cold, question-answer. A seeker who has found the answers of his questions is still stuck in the duality or two-ness. He has still not experienced oneness which is beyond questions and answers.

Seeker doesn't find the truth; The truth finds the seeker. A seeker tries to push the door of truth. He beats it, kicks it but it doesn't open. He tries to pull it but there is no handle to pull. Then he waits and waits. Finally the truth opens the door from the other side. Finally the seeker meets his true self which lives on the 'other side'.

Past Karmas can't be settled one by one. They get settled all at once, in a single moment, when you realize that all of this is a dream. You didn't do anything you think you did.

Enlightenment is death before death, death of everything you are not. And a seeker's journey is like a soldier climbing a hilltop in the shower of bullets, not like a tourist trekking a hill.

These questions and answers for how long? These rituals and prayers for how long? When are you going to exhaust yourself? When are you going to fall so that the divine in you may arise?
