Even the anger of God is beautiful
18 February, 2012
In the sacred Bhagavad Gita, Bhagavan Krishna says, "The beings in whom passion, fear and anger have disappeared, who have been purified with experience and warmth, who have been burnt by wisdom, filled by wisdom, filled by me, they attain my state!"
But if you start doing the same thing, it will be too ugly. I tell you, anything, when you do it, it is ugly. Anything which overflows in you is beautiful. Even the anger of God is more beautiful than love from the dog!
Anything from the higher conscious being raises you, whether his love or his anger. Whether I look at you with a deep intense love or with boiling anger, or with tremendous sympathy and concern, you are raised to my level. Understand, my expression to you, whatever it may be, is my way of reaching out to you.
If you decide to stand in the same place without running away, you will be raised to the same space as me. Because if it is love, it will just melt away all other parts in you other than me. If it is anger, it will just burn away all other parts in you other than me. Whether it is melting or burning, it will take away all other parts in you other than me. It is just that melting is little easy, and boiling is little difficult, but anything from a higher being elevates you and puts you into that space.
You create the world

As long as worrying individuals exist on planet Earth, soothsayers cannot be destroyed. They will have their market. As long as people exist who cannot share, open up and share love with real people, the fantasy-based industries like romantic films and pornography will be alive.
Fantasy-based living means constantly watching romance and pornography on TV, in movies, in books and on the internet, but never able to express that love yourself to a real living person. Same way, as long as people who don't feel satisfied with themselves exist, the competition-based industries like sports and beauty will exist. They cannot be destroyed.
the basic thread, like sports and beauty, will have a very deep dissatisfaction and lack of acceptance about themselves. I guarantee this. Their very breathing, their very space, will be so intolerable to themselves. Please understand, their own space will be intolerable to themselves. They will be constantly trying to jump out of their own space. Is it possible?
In the same way, as long as human beings seek something more than the five senses, I will be there. I cannot be destroyed!
The Master's last secret
29 August, 2012
In all religions, when the Master is leaving the body, all the disciples stand around and ask, 'Please tell us the last secret you have.'
In all religions, when normal human beings are on the deathbed, they are asked, 'If you have any secrets, tell them now.' In the Catholic tradition, you need to confess the biggest secret you are keeping before you die.
The last moment of death is the moment you face truth. That is why we have the same Sanskrit word for truth and death – 'Yama'. Yama means both 'death' and 'truth', because death is the moment you face the truth of life. So, when normal human beings die, they confess the biggest lie with which they lived. When enlightened beings leave their bodies, they reveal the biggest truth with which they lived.
Enlightened beings may not be able to reveal the biggest truth while they live, because you may not be able to digest it. The greatest truth may not be palatable for you. When a person is not ready to listen to the highest truths, even if he is given those truths, he may only get into the mode of anger or depression or a suicidal mood. They can easily destroy themselves and others.
When normal humans open what they hold in their heart, they lose their identity. When an enlightened being reveals what he is holds in his heart, the world loses its identity! Unfortunately the world is not yet ready to lose its identity. It will jump on him. That is why they reveal the last secret only when they are leaving the body, saying, 'Now you do whatever you want!'
