Discourse 27
Unhinge Yourself
Unhinge Yourself
15 January 1988 pm in Gautam the Buddha Auditorium
Question 1
BELOVED MASTER,
WHEN I FIRST SAT IN FRONT OF YOU AT WOODLANDS,
FOURTEEN YEARS AGO, THERE WAS AN EXPLOSION INSIDE. I
DON’T KNOW WHAT IT MEANS, BUT I’VE OFTEN HAD THE
FEELING THAT ALL I’VE BEEN TRYING TO DO EVER SINCE IS
CATCH UP TO SOMETHING THAT HAS ALREADY HAPPENED.
Krishna Prem, the question you have asked has tremendous
implications for all the seekers of truth, because it is a question
which touches the very fundamental law of those who are in search
of something inexplicable, something inexpressible.
Let me first make the law clear to you. It may have happened to
many; it is going to happen to everybody. But you may not have
taken the whole, comprehensive view. The law is that when you
first meet the master you come innocent, without any experience.
You simply come as a receptivity, a sensitivity – ready to move into
any dimension, willingly and totally. Hence, the first meeting with
the master always brings an explosion.
The explosion happens because of your innocence, because of
your unexpecting mind. You know nothing about spirituality, you
know nothing about ecstasy. Your not-knowing is the cause of the
explosion. But then begins a very troublesome journey. Then begins
a nightmare. Then, each and every moment you are waiting for that
explosion to happen again. And you may wait for years....
