God Loves Fun
Nature loves to give you surprises. God loves fun. He always gives you surprises---sometimes
pleasant, sometimes unpleasant. And you grow by unpleasant as well as
by pleasant. In fact you grow much more by unpleasant surprises than the
pleasant ones.
Observe, Don't Identify
Observe the tendencies that come up in you, and do not think you *are* those tendencies.
The Way Out of Ignorance
The way to come out of ignorance is a definite understanding, a definite
knowledge in the mind, that my body is undergoing change all the time,
the world is undergoing change all the time, the entire universe is in a
state of fluidity and it is all full of change and it is going on on
its own, according to its nature.
"Diamond Minds"
Diamond is found in coal mines. You find diamonds in coal
mines---completely opposite [from coal], but of one substance. Their
nature, their color, their look, every thing, is opposite. Coal sticks;
diamond can never stick. Coal breaks; diamond can never break. Diamond
shines; coal doesn't. But they are made up of one substance. When the
mind is compressed, brought into one totality, then the same mind that
has been our problem, our enemy, which has been the cause of all our
suffering and anxiety, turns into the guiding light.
