Work Towards Experience

I always tell people: spending years and years in just acquiring knowledge is a mere waste. If you can work towards one solid experience, it is the best thing that can happen to you. What do I mean by experience? Experience means being convinced beyond your logic that ultimate truths are livable, that ultimate truths are reality. That is what I call experience.

Some people who are a little innocent, who don't have a large amount of knowledge stored in them, will have the 'click' or 'experience' easily. Only those who don't want to get rid of their knowledge, those who have vested interests in their knowledge, take ages to experience.

Understand: it is very rare to get the presence of an enlightened master in your life. I am telling you in very clear words not to miss it. When you are near a master, you are near such a great possibility, so do not waste it, merely because of your mind and the stored information. When I tell this to people, they don't

listen, and when I leave the country, they sit and repent for not having fully utilized the time and space around me.
