I tell you, the more you cherish enmity towards anybody or anything, the more you lose contact with reality - because enmity is such it constantly reminds you about your enemy! The enemy looks much bigger than what he really is.
When the enemy looks much bigger than what he is, you lose sight of your own life and your reality, and you go on thinking, talking, working, either to escape from your enemy or destroy your enemy. Both are foolishness. You neither need to escape from him nor need to destroy him. You just need to ignore him; because, he is not that big as you are imagining!
It is your enmity that makes your enemy big. It is your romance that makes your lover big. It is the inside that makes the outside larger than life-size. It is that which is inside that makes anything which is outside larger than life-size. Understand, when you are so sure about what you are, who is your friend, who is
posing as your enemy, what your enemy wants - all these details - your very thinking will be liberating you, your very thinking will be liberating you! Your thinking can be binding you if you have a weak thinking. Just a small 1 + 1, you will not make it as 2; you will make it as 11! If you have Liberated Thinking, even if it is 11 or 111, or 1111, you know how to cut the 1-1-1 separately and break them and throw them away!
Understand, the way you think should be adding more and more liberation to you every day. Every day, it should be adding more and more liberation to you, more and more powerfulness to you, more and more energy to you, more and more completion to you, more and more intelligence to you.
