The secret

Acceptance... You see: you exist as you are now just because you do not accept what you are. If you accept whatever you are as it is inside, and as it is outside, even for a few seconds, suddenly you will see that so much energy comes out of you! And such a deep inner healing happens in you. Either you should be completely dissatisfied with yourself - then you will be disgusted and you will drop yourself - or you should completely accept yourself. Then too, you will drop yourself.

Even for a few moments, if you completely accept whatever you have inside and outside, it is enough. Suddenly you will see, you just drop yourself. You drop from all the struggle and fight that you are having constantly with yourself, and tremendous energy starts coming out of you. If the energy is not coming out of you, it means you have accepted only at the superficial level, not at the full depth. Accept at the full depth, at the complete depth, and see...

LOOK IN

And become spontaneous

One thing: these terms, 'look inwards' and 'examine yourself' are two contradicting terms. When you look inwards, you can never examine. Just look, then whatever has to be examined will simply happen by itself! If you are examining, you are not looking inside, you are judging. Two things: if you look inwards, whatever is there in front of you will be simply burnt away. That is what is looking inwards and that is what Masters say. Examining means it is like a technique - judging yourself and correcting. There is a big difference. Just look inwards, everything will just disappear. Looking inwards will lead to everything being cleaned. The un-clutching from the thoughts will simply start happening.

Whenever things happen in you, thoughts rise in you. Just witness. Do not give meaning to them. Just go to the sound from where it comes. Whenever a thought rises in you, if you see its meaning, if you give meaning to it, you will go to the outer world. If you don't give meaning and just see it, you will go in. You will fall into the place from where the thoughts rise. Suddenly you will see, even without analyzing, simply your body is working in a beautiful way, with intense visualization.

As of now, you will work, giving meaning to the words. But I am working, giving no meaning to any word! From you to me, the transition period is what I call tapas - penance! In my case, I don't give any meaning to any word. The body simply does what it is doing. In your case, you give a lot of meaning to all the words; only then your body works. Just stop giving meaning. Suddenly a consciousness will awaken in you. You will feel hunger, and simply without thinking, your body will move towards the kitchen and you will eat. Suddenly your body will get up and say, 'Let me go and do the Gurukul work.' You will not even analyze whether it is right or wrong. There won't be two persons - one creating the thought and the other judging the thought or executing the thought. Right now there are two persons inside - one person creates, and the other person either judges it or executes it. Now the two persons will disappear. There will be only one person. Creating, judging, executing will all be done together. That is what I call spontaneous life. It just happens. There is nobody to judge, there is nobody to execute. The very thought itself becomes Life.
