Product Description
The only relationship on the earth which is unearthly is that of a master and the disciple. So if the
disciple is lost, the master is lost.
One is never safe with the ego. The ego is the source of all errors. So, to feel that one is saved
already, means that one is still prone, one is still tending to fall back down. Rather the more we know
it, the more unknown it becomes. The other shore means the unknown – not only the unknown but
the unknowable. This is the mystery; this is what makes this type of knowledge esoteric. This is
what mystery means: one knows and still remains ignorant.
Money continues to circulate, just like blood in the body. Knowledge cannot be circulated like money;
this knowledge cannot be transferred. Then what to do? What should the master do with the
disciple? The master only prays, ”Give us strength. We should endeavor together, we should make
an effort together” – but we endeavor TOGETHER. The family of the master – a member of the
family, because they are not teachers.
To be a buddha is one thing, but to be a master is something plus.
To know truth is not as difficult as to communicate it. Communication is a greater difficulty, because
the other comes in. In knowing, you are alone, but in communication the other comes in. And
when you are trying to communicate, the other has to be considered. It becomes difficult. So there
are many enlightened persons, but not so many masters. What has happened? The thing has
happened, the explosion has happened, but even the person is not able to grasp the totality of it.
What has happened?
Buddha remained silent for seven days after his enlightenment. Why? One of the reasons, amongst
many, is this: for seven days he tried to comprehend ”What has happened? To whom has this
happened? What has happened and to whom has this happened?
Knowing is just riverlike. It goes on and on and on, and there is no end to it.
