| For example, Aurobindo is dead and now the Mother is dead – now Pondi-cherry is a monastery, not an ashram. It will persist as a dead thing, an institute. When Aurobindo was there it was totally different. The person is important, not the institute – institutions are dead. So remember this: a live phenomenon, a master, just by his presence creates a milieu – that milieu is the ashram. And when you move in that milieu you are moving in a family, not in an institute. The master will take care of you in every way, and you will be there in intimate, close proximity... --Osho Vedanta: Seven Steps to Samadhi, ch. 8 |
