Beloved Master,
Just as clouds are continuously being directed by wind, could You tell us about what or who is continuously directing us?
First thing: clouds are not directed by anything. Let you be clear: the very idea of direction only exists when there is resistance. If the cloud wishes to move north and the wind is moving it south, there is resistance, so we can say that direction is there. But if the cloud does not wish to go anywhere, then north and south, east and west, they mean nothing! Then there is no resistance, direction also disappears.
Direction is only possible when there is resistance. You can only direct a person if he is not ready to relax and let go. The beauty of a cloud is that it will not resist. Resistance is not its nature. If the wind blows west, it will move along with it. If the cloud was moving west and the wind begins to blow east, the cloud will move to the east. This is the beauty. The wind is not directing, the wind is simply blowing and the cloud is simply moving along with it.
When people come to me and ask for guidance, when they ask me for direction, I simply keep quiet! You see: the very question of asking me for direction shows that they are not ready - otherwise, what is the need to ask? Simply being here, simply being here in this space is more than enough; things will start happening. It is just like a cloud. If the wind blows south, you will also move south; there is no direction at all. But when you ask for guidance, it shows that you are resisting. See, with a cloud, there is no distinction about which the wind is and which the cloud is. Because if the wind simply blows and the cloud simply moves, where is the question of boundaries? They simply are - that's all! Boundaries exist only with will.
So the boundary between you and me only exists because of your will. You are surrounded by will. A cloud has no will and because of this there is no boundary. There is no beginning of the cloud nor ending of the wind. They are one. The cloud is a part of the wind and vice versa. There is no division, only unity.
The wind will go on blowing. It will move in all directions. It will go on changing. There is no direction. There is no north nor south, nor east nor west. It will simply blow completely uncharted and completely unpredictable. Whatever the wind may do, wherever it may go, the cloud will come along as one entity.
We are continuously avoiding. We are avoiding the opportunity to raise our consciousness. We start thinking about others, but we avoid thinking about ourselves. We will think about space, planets, age and time. We will think about what is going to happen to human consciousness. But we avoid the fundamental question: what will happen to my consciousness?
It is your consciousness which should become your focus.
The time has come. The time is now.
