If you have a belief and you come against an experience which the belief says is not possible, or, the experience is such that you have to drop the belief, what are you going to choose โ the belief or the experience? The tendency of the mind is to choose the belief, to forget about the experience. Thatโs how you have been missing many opportunities when God has knocked at your door.
RajneeshThe fool knows nothing of God; he never comes across anything divine. He remains part of the stupid collectivity. Remember, the society, the collective has no soul; the soul belongs to the individual. Hence, those who belong to the collective are destroying every possibility of being souls.
RajneeshTo live moment to moment is the life of meditation. Then life becomes spontaneous without any effort; then nobody can make you miserable, nobody can disappoint you, nobody can make you a failure because in the first place you were not trying to be a success; you were not asking the future to be in a certain way. So whatever happens, the next moment you can rejoice. It is always your victory.
RajneeshLove has these three stages, and compassion accordingly has three stages, and both can exist in different combinations.
