Good afternoon. I welcome you with all my heart. I see a couple of new
faces here. If you’ve come to hear a speech or a lecture forget it. I do not give lectures nor
do I make speeches. I speak nonsense, no sense. It has nothing to do with your senses so
it’s nonsense.
For instance: I say to you your true nature is absolute reality. You are pure awareness.
You are sat-chit-ananda. You are ultimate oneness.
Does that make sense to some of you? It’s nonsense because you identify with the
body-mind phenomena and you believe you are your experiences. You live your experiences,
your thoughts about the body, the world, the mind. And you are always thinking,
thinking, thinking that you’ve been hurt, you’ve been slandered, something is wrong. You
watch the news on the TV, you hear the radio and you identify with all the wrongs of the
world and then you feel out of sorts. That’s nonsense, none of that exists. Only absolute
reality exists and you are that.
So to put ourselves in the mood, take out your song sheet. And we shall sing “Joy
to God.”
Again, I welcome with all my heart, good afternoon. And let me reiterate during
the course of the talk you’ll hear me speaking nonsense.
I don’t make any sense to a sense bound person. Most people are bound by their
senses. They can only understand what they read in the paper, what they watch on TV.
When I try to express the truth, that you are not the body and you are not the mind, you
look at me as if I’m crazy. Of course I am crazy so you can look at me any way you like.
But my experience has been that there is no body, there is no mind, there is no
universe, there is no God, there is no person, there is no experience, there is only consciousness
and you are that. Not the you that thinks that they’re the ego, but the real you.
The real you is divine, absolute reality, nirvana, total emptiness. This is the real you. When
you get a glimpse of what you really are you have unalloyed happiness, total joy, bliss.
And then you begin to see your fellow man, the world the universe as yourself.
