'Link Of The Heart'

A Satsang Diary


Meetings with Papaji in Lucknow
1991/92

Gyan &  Papaji in '91
September 7th 1991

Gyandeva: 'How can I avoid to get addicted to your presence?'
(Somebody repeats the question)

Papaji: 'That I understand, but I don't understand the meaning.
English I understand. English words are known to me. English I understand very well.
First of all, when you are on a trip of any drug, say in the evening, the next morning it is over. That trip is over. This is the result with all drugs, you see: their trip is only eight hours and finished. You will come out of it.
Intoxication is only for eight hours for any drugs that you take. That's why people are addicted to these drugs.
But this drug is not LSD, is not any chemical, no drug!
It's a very special kind of drug, you see. The effect of this drug will be deeper intoxication every next moment. There is no question of coming out of this intoxication. It increases by itself every next moment, throughout your life, you see... .
This is the effect of this drug. Lucky are those people who know the place where it is sold.'


September 9th 1991

Papaji: 'This transcendence is itself attraction. It itself attracts. Other name is attraction.
That is why we are searching. We do not know who is attracted, why we are attracted.
We want to enjoy, we want to be happy, seeking love. We are seeking freedom.
We do not know what is this attraction. Where does it come from we do not know. It's natural.
Find out who is attracting you! And you have been attributing it to objects, to the demons of the senses. Therefore you have never found peace.
And then the outgoing tendencies are checked because you are attracted somewhere else which is not without.
And perhaps you decide. You will be pulled by this attraction and you have to do nothing.
Only this mistake.
What is this attraction? Where I'm being attracted to? What do I want? What is it that I couldfind? I run from object to object - I don't find happiness, you see.
Then it must be somewhere else, let me say. This is your firmly made decision.
So, turn your face. Turn your face towards where other faces are turned back.
That is the trick: where other people have turned faces you turn back towards it.
Perhaps you will know what is this attraction.
Here you are doing this. Turn your face where other people have turned their faces, that's all.
This man in the well is enjoying the dripping of the honey, not caring for the crocodile in the well. Rats cutting the life creeper day and night: not caring.
So, turn your back towards al these things and go towards... Still continue your journey 'till you arrive at the queen of transcendence. Don't rest on the way, you will fall in the well!
Don't take rest. Enough travel. Go your way. Hurry up. This moment is the last final moment for you. Don't let it slip! She will drop you in the well if it is gone. Next step you should not fall into the well. Take care, take are! Don't fall into this well. This samsara is a well. Death is the crocodile. Rats are day and night. Creeper is life, honey drops sense pleasures.
If you want to enjoy, carry on. Who stops you?
If you are wise, sane, intelligent: wait! Think! Some other way that all these people do not know. Perhaps you will find. This moment you can find.
Don't delay, don't postpone. In this moment, this instant it is there. Don't take a next wrong step. That's all. Stop! Turn right! That's all you have to do.
When you have done it, you have done it.
Stop! Wait! Still! That's all. Then this moment will not slip. Then it is for the queen, her majesty, to look after you.
You have no business to beg any more. Why don't you have trust? You don't have to beg any more. You are the guest of transcendence itself, you see. She will look after you, take care of you. Why don't you trust it?
Doubt is a well. When you doubt you are in a well. 'What's' and 'ifs' and 'buts' is a well. Avoid the well.
What will happen? What will happen? 'Ifs' and 'what's' and 'buts'...(chuckles) Avoid. - What happens? You are in the palace. (chuckles) You see? You see?' (silence...)


September 10th 1991

Gyandeva: 'I'm a crazy fool and I'm trying to keep it together and I don't know why.'
Papaji:' You come here. Somewhere here. You are too far. (chuckle)
You are too far. Come close and tell me. What do you say?'
G: 'That I am a crazy fool.'
P: 'Why?'
G:' Well, I'm trying to keep it together and don't know why.'
P: 'Keep it together? What? What together?' (laughter)
This is very important. This is interesting because on one hand he is showing the depth of  understanding: 'I want to know what is on the other side. Both the things.'
On one hand he is between the depth of understanding: 'What is on the other side I do not know.' What do you mean by 'together'?'
G: 'Like 'under control' or something. Like that. Not to make mistakes and keep under control not to freak out. All these things.'
P: 'Achaa! (Hindi for: 'Ok . Good') You want to keep it to yourself and not to, don't want to speak of it?'
G: 'It wants to come out.'
P: 'Then?'
G: 'It doesn't feel good.'
P: 'Your question was different: 'I want to keep them together.'  What do you want to keep together? Hum? What is it? Silence and description?'
G: 'Myself.'
P: 'Your Self is one thing. And what else do you want to keep together? Non-Self?'
G: 'Can it fall apart?'
P: 'No! How can it? Where will it fall?'  Self where ever it will fall it is Self. Where it will fall? Where is the place to fall?
There is no rise. When there is a rise, then there is a fall. There is no rise. Self is as it is.
Neither you have achieved it nor you will loose it: this is called Self. It doesn't rise, it doesn't fall. It is always there.'
 But I still don't understand your question. I don't understand the question.'
G: 'The craziness inside! I'm afraid I'm going nuts with it. Bananas!'
P: 'Don't suppress it. This is not craziness. You have been told this is craziness.
You have been told this craziness and you are expressing it. That's all. We want some twenty crazy people like this. With some twenty crazy people like you the world will be wise.'
G: 'I don't know (laughing). Quite a scene.'
P: 'I know. You don't explain properly. I understand. I understand what is happening. I understand what is happening. I could only advise you to allow it to happen. Allow it to happen and then you see. Allow it to happen! Then this craziness will go.'
G: 'You are a nasty fellow.' (chuckles)
P: 'Allow it to happen, that's all. Allow it to happen.' (Chuckles) 'Challo!' (Hindi for: 'Let's go')
G: 'I'm a dodo!'
P: 'Sit down here. This is the first visit. First visit. Too much excited to receive. To much excitement to receive this peace. Too much excitement. This body cannot contain, this nervous system cannot contain. This river cannot contain this flood of happiness.
G: 'Can it come out here or here?'
P: 'Yes. Let it flow. Let it come anywhere. Don't suppress it, don't be afraid. All are your friends.
You are not in that society where they will say: 'He is a crazy man.''
G(Laughing): 'The computer is sparking.'
P: 'I'm seeing for the last few days. I thought you are a young boy, you will face it. You are a young man, you will face it.
 Be very strong. The peace is hugging you. You are a lucky man. What more? Peace has come to hug you itself.'
      (Gap due to end of tape)
 ' I can't control myself even these days. You are a young boy. I spend seventy years with it. Seventy years, you see?'
From the age of eight years I'm living with this, you see. What about me? (Chuckles)
Every moment greater is the joy, greater is the beauty.
You have no time even to blink an eye so that you miss seeing this beauty.'
 (Chuckles. Silence. Chuckles again)
 'Sleep good?'
G: 'Well, not so good. I'm not sleeping good these days. Maybe 4 hours.'
P: 'They are listening. All are listening.'
G: 'It's just something private between the two of us. (Laughter. Silence)
 No lids fit. They don't fit any more. They don't fit. The hats don't fit!'
P: 'Your hair is all standing.' (chuckles)
G: (Laughing) 'That's the air conditioning.'
P: 'Don't touch it. Your responsibility is over. Let it be as it is, you see.
You have won the game.'
G: 'Great. Great!'
P: 'Goal! Goal!'
G: 'Nothing else. Thank you. Nothing more.'
P: 'Nothing more? Oh, excellent! Nothing more. (Laughing) This is perfection. This is perfection.
You have thrown away the begging bowl of enjoyments and so many things.
 It's gone. No more begging. Nothing more.'
G: 'There's nothing.'
P: 'THIS is a talk. This is a talk which someone is speaking.
What's your name?'
G: 'Dyandeva.'
P: 'Oho! You have gone to his place to see? Gyandeva's place you have gone? Alandi?'
G: 'There's another one?'
P: 'Alandi, very near Poona. Six miles.'
G: 'Dyandeva or Gyandeva?'
P: 'Gyandeva!'
G: 'No, I'm Dyandeva. 'D'.'
P: 'They write with 'd' also. It's neither 'd' or 'g'. In some places Dyandeva, Gyandeva, 'j' is also used.
But the correct is 'd-n-a-n'. Because you can't pronounce Marathi.' (Language of  the state of Maharashtra)
 'Any Marathi speaking? He will know.'
Swamiji: 'd-n-y'
P: 'He is Marathi speaking, you see. In North India we use 'g' in Marathi they use 'd'.
It's somewhere between 'g' and 'd'. From here (pointing at his throat) it comes.
Gyandeva. Born enlightened man. Was a born enlightened man.'
G: 'Lucky guy.'
P: 'Yes. Born enlightened man. He says: 'All is Brahman. All is truth. Everywhere I am.
Everywhere I am. I am in trees. I am in animals. I am in rocks. I am in birds.'
And the local brahmins (priests) of Alandi they said: 'He speaks lie.' They didn't agree.
They said: 'Everywhere is truth? Everywhere is Brahman?'
      'Yes!'
      'Then in this buffalo also?'
      'Yes, of course.'
      'Then let this buffalo chant the Vedas (holy scriptures).'
And she started chanting the Vedas.
This is the story of Gyandeva. It is a beautiful story, right from the beginning.
 If there is time I will take to: who his father was, how he was born, how he was rejected by the  society. He was enlightened at a very young age, you see. That was his fault. Because  enlightenment must take ... . You have to grow long grey beard and go into the mountains and perform tapas (austerities) for thousands of years. Like Vishramitra (laughs).
So it comes. It is already there. But this boy knew because his brother Nivrittinath got instant  enlightenment. He passed on to Gyandeva, he passed on to Sopandeva, his brother. And  Mukta (his sister) was six years, she also got enlightened.
This is the story: six years old girl got enlightened. Many people came to have a dialogue with  her.
One Changdeva, a yogi who could fly and levitate into the air, he came on a tiger to have a  debate with her (chuckles). This little girl!
People spoke: 'This little girl looks like an enlightened person.'
And Changdeva heard it. So he came to see this girl. Riding on a tiger into space.
And she was sitting on a wall. And seeing this man with a whip of snakes in his hand, riding a  tiger ... . And this girl was sitting outside of the village on a wall.
And she said:' It's good for me to receive him. He is my elder brother.'
So she went up on the wall itself and said:' Uncleji. I have come to receive you.'
Uncleji. Ha-ha! This is what we call the term in Maharashtra: 'Mahamati - Welcome your visitor'.
Then he said: 'I wanted ...'. This is a big story. 64 Stanzas (verses) are there; their discourse. And he came with 1400 disciples, all in the air. And there was a debate in the space itself.
This man touched her feet. And these people said: 'Our guru has gone crazy.' And all these  disciples they are angry with the guru. Went back to their ashram ... . It's a very beautiful story.

So, it's not a new thing for you. 'Gyan' (wisdom) is your nature, inheritance.
You belong to that lineage, take it from me. (From) Your lineage, you don't descend from this  lineage of your physical body. You have a special lineage. That's a different nature, and that's a  different lineage. You don't belong to this foolish lineage, mind you. You have a different  spiritual lineage, you see. Deep from the beginning. You have your destiny.
So, don't have this lineage from the physical to the physical, birth and death.
That is spiritual body. Within this body there is a spiritual body. And when we speak about
appearances, relationships, love and hate ... this is spiritual body, and knowledge is not  attained. Knowledge is not attained by the spiritual body. You can't hear.
Somehow the spiritual body will rise, not the physical body.
Everybody knows the physical body, so therefore relationships. This is a different relationship, you see.
And when this happiness comes, you are attuned with the spiritual body within you.
'Link of the Heart' it is called. That will give enlightenment. Not the physical body.
Therefore, when I say I'm not able to make you understand what ... only difference is this; because on one side there is spiritual body and other side is physical body.
The trouble is this. Nobody is at fault. If I speak from physical body and you listen from physical body, nothing is going to happen. This is only physical relationship. Maya. Untruth.  Falsehood.
If someone speaks from the physical body he has no right to speak on knowledge. He is  cheating.
If he is speaking from physical body, physical mind, physical tongue he is a cheat. It will not work. If you do, you will not catch (it).
Therefore yesterday, what we were speaking: 'Get out of the chariot' means this.
With some of you I am very happy. If even one person gets (it) during my span of life, I am very happy - with my work, with my birth. I am thankful to my stars even if one man catches this light.
I am very happy, you see. I will be thankful to my stars. Just even I get one man.
There may be many sheep and goats. Therefore I cannot understand, I can only give you  indication.
Sometimes, sometimes it may hit the bull('s eye), not always.
But I will continue speaking - this is my dharma (sanskrit: law of destiny).
I must continue speaking whether you listen or not.
Whether you are sleeping, dreaming or  awaking: I must go on speaking. I can't help it.
I don't see you suffering. I don't see anybody suffering, what to do?
      You may not like me - still I like you.
      You may not love me - still I love you.
      That is the only difference.
      You may say: 'Poonjaji, I don't understand.' Doesn't       matter, still I will go on speaking.

 There was one sadhu, one saint. He went to the river to drink water. Then he saw one scorpion  in the water, struggling. So, he wants to take him out. So this man is just helping the poor  scorpion to put it out from the water to the riverbank - and it stings him. It stings him.
And releases itself, stings and goes. Again he tries - again it stings. Again he tries - again it stings.
Then another man, a bystander, he says: 'Sir, leave him alone! You try to help him. You are a  sadhu, you must have compassion, and he's being drowned. He will die. You help him and he stings you. Don't bother, let him be washed away.'
He (the sadhu) says: 'No, Sir! If he sticks to his dharma, his dharma is to sting. I will stick to my  dharma: my dharma is to save him.'

 

(Chuckles) You have to find out what is your dharma now. What is your dharma?
Your dharma is to know yourself. That is your dharma. Nothing else is important, mind you!
You will repent one day. Nothing else is important except to return home, to be free from this  suffering. Never ending suffering. Birth to death and death to birth. Womb to womb.
And what kind of wombs?! Eight million kind of wombs itself.
So, since you are wearing this human body, human garment ... . This desire for freedom has  entered somewhere in your head for the first time.
This is your prime duty: to free yourself from the functions of the mind. That's all you have to do. If you loose this chance you have lost it for another cycle, you see.
And you don't have to respond(?) much. I don't tell you to go to monastery and crop your hair.
I don't tell you to crop your head and join the monasteries. Haircut has nothing to do with  freedom. That is the job of the hairdresser. That's not the place here, dealing with hair cutting.
You may do whatever you want, just spend two seconds for you.
Eighty years, ninety years span of life... . Just steal one hour out of these ninety years. Is it too much? If not one hour, one minute. Come on!
But spend some time where nobody trespasses. Don't allow anybody. Just take a minute. Take  a minute for you. And don't allow even a thought to enter this one minute. Understand?
In this one minute ... , you specify this minute: tonight, this year, next year I will dedicate one minute on myself, and I will not allow my mind, my thoughts to enter here.
And give me the result. Now, half an hour is enough. - (Pause)
You see. You have digested it. You see the difference?'
G: 'The hairs are going down again.'
P: 'This is the nature, you see. Sometimes flood will come, flood of happiness.
And that is not in your control. You don't belong to yourself. It's somebody. I've seen this thing.
Out of my experience I tell you. But I have to live with it. What do you think?
Once, I was coming to Madurai (South India) ... ; this is a very bad story but I tell it.
To Madurai I had gone to a training. There is some workshop. I had gone on behalf of my firm to have training to run a fleet of vehicles for transport. To learn transport.
I had gone there, I was walking. I was in such a deep joy. I saw in one house - it was Saturday night ten o' clock in the night. I was staying in a hotel. I saw one young girl and one young boy, only  the two of them, and they where husband and wife. Husband was an engineer in a corporation in
Madras. And the wife was a housewife. Such a beautiful ... , she was dressed in the saree of a Radha (wife of God Krishna). And he became Krishna, and then he was playing...
I could not resist. I went inside and hugged this woman. Stranger to the city! The culture doesn't  allow: a stranger comes and hugs the wife of someone.
I went inside. That's all. That's all I know. After that I didn't know what happened. They didn't hand me over to the police. I was (gone) the whole night.
I woke up next morning 8 o'clock and they said: 'We have been feeding you. You were not accepting. Even to drink milk.' - I said: 'I'm very sorry, Sir. I don't know what happened.'
He said: 'You could find out, because we are also devotees. So, on Saturdays she is a dancer. I am a  dancer. So, our meditation is to spend the whole night in dancing together. This is our meditation.
 So we do this thing and we could recognise. And who you are?' - 'That I don't tell you.' - Where you are staying?' - 'I don't tell you.' - 'I can give you a lift.' - ' I don't need.' - 'You come and stay with us.'
I never accepted.
So this comes and you don't ... . Many things happen like this. In a few days you have to absorb.
 This is the first time of happiness. And this is not that happiness will be replaced with suffering.
This happiness multiplies every moment. Every moment. It's not even standard or stationary.
 That is the beauty of this one touch, you see. This is the love expression. Love.
 LOVE, not love which goes on fading. Other contacts go on fading. Every year. And the things you love most you reject. But this love, once you have tasted you can't go back.
It's increasing in the day and doubles in the night! That's what happens.
So, you have to ...(chuckles). Four days I'm looking at you and today I'm happy.
Now. Now you see ...? Just see THAT (chuckles).
Where do you come from?
G: 'Germany. Cologne.'
P: 'Cologne? I have been there, in Cologne. At the bank of Rhine. I stayed in Cologne.
Then I used to go to Düsseldorf. You know him? Yoga teacher. He has a yoga centre. He came to see me in Barcelona. He invited me also.'
G: 'It's happening also there? It seems so far away, Düsseldorf and Cologne.'
P: 'He?'
G:' That it's happening there also.'
P: 'Yes! You see? And then all those Frankfurt doctors used to come to Cologne on Saturdays.
And from München also. For meditation.. .
This boy from Cologne met me in Rishikesh in '68. He was the secretary of Mahesh Yogi and  president of Transcendental Meditation ... .'


September 23rd 1991

Papaji: (After reading the following poem by Gyandeva)
      'One spark of Truth was enough
      To burn down a forest of beliefs.
      Now the mountains have tumbled
      And the sea is on fire –
      Silence is calling
      So loud, so loud.')
Dyanadeva. 'Dyana' means 'meditation' ... .
Dyanadeva, what you write has got nothing to do with 'dyana' or 'deva'.
 'Dyana' means 'meditation' and 'deva' means 'god of dyana', isn't it?
What you write has got nothing to do with dhyana or god. No god and no dhyana. No practice!
 'Dhyana' means 'practice', isn't it? Practice. Practice on deva (chuckles).
What you write has got nothing to do with it: they are all aflame.
So this is an experience. What you write is an experience. All the forest is burnt.
Means: all what you have heard, all past, is burnt; what you describe as 'forest'.
And no practice and no achievement. All are consumed with this conflagration of the forest.
Hm? - No comment. Only with others you can comment, when you are 'other'.
When you merge in oneness, no comment. All bliss.
And that is the natural state, spontaneous state of everyone of us. No difference.
Only differences are comments, not in oneness.
When you are alone, what comment will you make with your own Self?!
What comment, hum ... ?


April 17th 1992

Papaji: (from letter)
 '... yet after going light-heartedly back to Germany I found myself soon trying to put on the old  cloth of habits like effort, speed, unclarity and tension.
Beloved One, are my roots in 'Nothing' so weak? I feel there is still so much to learn for me, so  many illusions to be destroyed. I am impatient as ever and burning to find that which does not go  away anywhere.
I will not go away any more from your feet, never! Dhyandeva.'
'Who's Dhyandeva? Where are you? Come here.(chuckles)
So, everything was fine here. Then, what happened?
When you returned to Germany: tension, speed, unclarity and tension.
What to say, hm? Yes?'
G: 'It felt like, that my Self didn't get enough ..., just had a small space. And all those things were on top. I see them coming and still they all come.
And I feel, being here, there is so much more space for myself to be given by my Self. That's the  whole point.'
P: 'It cannot be lost. It cannot be lost. And in the speed, unclarity, tension, effort ... you will see they will not take away your awareness. Yes!
How you got confused actually?
'Speed'. - Now you are aware that you are making effort, you are aware. 'Speed'. Let the speed be there. You can speed. You can drive 300km per hour, doesn't matter. Yes.(chuckles)
You can try. 'Tension'. Only you have to (chuckles) ... . Doesn't matter.
I welcome you. Welcome again. I'm happy you have come again. This time we will see.
 'Impatient'. Very nice. 'I am impatient and burning' - this is quite enough (chuckles).
This impatience is fire. That will burn all those three things, you see. You must be very impatient.
 I read to you ... , you were here? I showed you the impatience of the just born baby? You were here?'
G: 'No.'
P: 'No? (chuckles) He was very impatient. One second after his birth he shouted. Perhaps this man has got it because he took it. Bring it here!
You see how impatient? One second after the birth. You see the mother and son? This baby is just now born. After one second he is shouting. One second after birth! And then twenty minutes he spent afterwards:' Oh no, not again'. That's what he spoke (chuckles, laughter). I'll read it:
 'Astonished midwives nearly dropped a newborn baby boy when they delivered this infant after 17 hours of labor . And a second later the baby screamed:“Oh no. Not again!“ - According to  Christine Baxter of Lexington Key, 22-year old mother of the baby boy, the child screamed out  these four words only, then cried inconsolably for more than twenty minutes.'
 'After a time then the infant calmed down. Words of the bizarre incident reached reincarnation experts who are already claiming that the baby, whose name is Anthony, is positive proof that the dead can be reborn. Christine, the single mom, thinks they are right.'
So, that's the baby boy. At birth he says:' I have not to be born again.' So, this could be his final birth, you see. He will remember (chuckles).
Maybe some desire has brought him back to the States to fulfill his desires quickly. (laughter)
In India it will take one hundred years (laughter) to fulfill his desires. So it's better, it's better to be  born in the West and fulfill the desires and then come to Lucknow (laughter).
(Showing the photo:) It's impatient. You can see? (laughter)
Otherwise, if you don't complete, you will be like this baby. So, finish everything here.
Yes! Finish everything here, otherwise you will be feeling like that.


July 31st 1992

Papaji: 'Here is Dhyandeva. I couldn't have much time yesterday. Where is he? Hm?
Please come here. I had to go. I had to leave. I didn't attend to you yesterday because I had to go (chuckles). Good.
So ... , tik-ha, very good.
Dhyandeva. Dhyandeva has become Gyandeva (chuckles). Have you heard of Gyandeva?'
G: 'From Alandi!'
P: 'Alandi, yes. It was very near to your place. Did you go there? - Very nice! Good.
(Reading:) 'It's the middle of the night. Something woke me up. It's pressing, knocking from  inside wanting to express itself.' - Beautiful (chuckles).
'After seeing you yesterday, being showered by your beautiful presence, it started again.
So many times it calls. Tears come, and it is as if dams burst open to release my own beloved Self in all its splendour and vastness.
I used to think it's just a crack in the wall, but it is so much more.
No wall, just space. Space and freedom.
It's me, it's all and it is time to claim it.
Pretending to be poor is one thing, but how long can such wealth be hidden?
With empty hands it feels so royal.
Ears full of silence hear the unheard.
Eyes full of light see the unseen.
Mouth full of truth speaks the unspoken.
Where ever I turn it speaks to me in many languages, and finally it all sings: Shanti, shanti, shanti and bows down to You, to truth, to Source itself.
Inseparably, Dhyandeva.'
Very nice, very beautiful. Beautiful (chuckles). Beautiful ... .
I'm very happy you could write. Even that much you can write I'm very happy.
I'm not able to write even this much (chuckles).'
G: 'I didn't write it. It had to be written. It's physical pressure.'
P: 'That's what I say. Even this much. So far I am not able what you have done.
I'm very thankful to you. I like it. I love it.' (chuckles)
G: 'You have said much more. It all comes from you.'
P: 'Very good. Beautiful. -
I was wanting someone to express. For the last seventy years I was asking people, but now I'm satisfied. I am more than satisfied. With this this I'm satisfied. Enough beautiful expression.
And no one has expressed even this much, you see. Even this much.
Even the sutras (holy scriptures) say:' Neti neti.' (Neither this nor that)
They stopped it. Neti neti maybe true but then ... . Even then I challenge this 'Neti-neti'.
I challenge. Why not speak it? When you are in love with someone, you have to describe.
And you have very well described it (chuckles).
But now I think quite a few people. have done the job to give me satisfaction, isn't it?! (chuckles)
Ok. Very nice. Can you do better words than this? - Yes, yes. Something!' (chuckles)
G: 'What came was a picture of a lake with very thin ice. And just a few sun rays, and the ice is gone.
 It's all water. And the sun is shining very strong. So, what can the ice do?'
P: 'But Leila has just said: 'Behind the eyes there are some other eyes to see (chuckles).
You said it very well. You can see with those eyes.
If your consciousness doesn't work, behind that consciousness there is another consciousness that maybe able to be conscious of ... .
Yes, you get onwards. Hm?'

August 1st 1992

Papaji: (reading Gyandeva's letter at the end of Satsang)

'Ageless young boy, the full moon in his eyes
Is roaming the streets looking wild.
Most people who meet him don’t see the disguise,
To them he’s a lunatic child.

As he stops in front of my house he shouts loud:
‘Wake up everyone. Come on out!
I’ll show you a place without walls, without crowd,
A sky without any cloud.’

Thus the boy he is calling as loud as he can,
And I run to the door just to see.
It seems hard to just leave but it’s harder to stay
Since his voice calls me stronger than love.

And his eyes are like windows to an ocean of light
Without limits below or above.
‘Just one step’ , that he whispers, ’Just one step and you’re free.
And leave everything else up to me.’

Then I don’t know what’s happ’ning, down I see myself bow
In a moment of bliss beyond mind.
Since that day I don’t know where I’m from, where I go.
Without searching I just find and find.

While inside of me laughs with a smile like the sun
The ageless young boy that I am.'
