Q: Is there any meaning in the dream I am seeing?

There is no meaning even in the world which you are seeing, let alone your dreams!

Even the world which you are seeing has no meaning. So, forget about the meaning of the dreams which you are seeing. People come and ask me, 'Swamiji, I saw this dream. Please give the meaning about it, please explain!'

The world which you are seeing is itself useless. So, why waste time in interpreting the dreams!

Q: What is the shortcut to spiritual progress?

If you want an honest answer I should say, I don't know. 'I don't know' is the honest answer. Because, according to me, the spiritual life itself is a simple, straight path. See, the shortest distance between two points is a straight line. There cannot be any other shortcut. The shortest distance between two points is a straight line. So, I can say, to live a spiritual life is a straight line. It is the most straight line, the only shortest route.
