A man in the paradise

Once a man was traveling, accidentally he entered paradise. In the Indian concept of paradise there are wish-fulling trees there Kalptarus. You just sit underneath them, desire anything and immediately it is fulfilled - there is no gap between the desire and it's fulfillment. There is no gap between a thought and a thing. You think and immediately it becomes thing; the thought materializes automatically.

The man was tired, so he fell asleep under a Kalptaru, a wish-fulling tree. When he woke-up he was feeling very hungry, so he simply said, "I'm feeling so hungry. wish I could get some food from somewhere." And immediately food appeared out of no where - just floating in the air, delicious food.

He was so hungry that he didn't pay attention to where it had come from - when you are hungry you are not philosophic. He immediately started eating, and the food was so delicious that he was caught up in the food. Once his hunger was gone. He looked around. Now that he was feeling very satisfied another thought arose in him. "If I could get some drink..." -- and there is still no prohibition in the paradise. Immediately precious wine appeared.

Drinking the wine relaxedly in the cool breeze of paradise under the shade of the tree, he started wondering, "What is the matter? What is happening? Have I fallen into a dream, or are some ghosts around and playing tricks with me?" And Lo - ghost appeared, ferocious ghosts, horrible, nauseating. Then he started trembling, and a thought arose in him: "Now I am sure to be killed. the people are going to kill me."

He was killed.

The socks

A merchant went to a farmer to get a pound of butter. The farmer insisted on swapping the butter for a pair of wollen socks. When the merchant reported this to his wife, she said - i'll unravel some wool from our bedspread and knit him pair of socks. When it was finished a pair socks was exchanged for a pound of butter.
When the merchant needed more butter, his wife again unravelled more of the bedspread and knit more socks, which were exchanged for butter. Finally she had enough wool for one sock. The merchant took the sock to farmer and asked for half pound of butter for it.
"Nothing doing", replied the farmer. "I'll give you a full pound of butter. You see, I really dont wear socks. My wife unravels the wool and uses it for knitting a bedspread, and there's just enough in this one sock to finish it. "

Our teachers

Remember our middle school teachers. Our high school teachers. When they were busy molding us for a better future. To become a better human being. When they were teaching us don't do this, don't do that, do this, do that, don't lie, live happily together, share your happiness blah blah blah. As if he has followed all of them. After following all of them he became a middle school teacher. I am not against any middle school teacher. As they are victims of their teachers. Their middle school teachers taught them the same nonsense. And they are simple passing down to generations and generations. They programmed us to live in the future which is the very basis of mind. We have been singing same song "Ham honge kaamyaab ek din". But when? When will this song be over. And I tell you - we want to wait for ultimate success but we really don't want to achieve it. Because, once you achieve the ultimate you have nothing to do. So in the waiting it seems there is a journey. But we have been waiting waiting waiting that one day some miracle will happen. Waiting for a better tomorrow. This is what humanity have been doing from day one.

I wanted to meet an ordinary person. Have you met an ordinary person lately. A simple person. I would really love to meet him/her. Now a days everybody has become extraordinary. There is a push to become extraordinary. No one is happy with what he is. Everybody wants to become what he is not. Say I want X amount of cash in my Bank. I work hard and achieve it. Now I want 2X amount of money. I work even more harder and make 2X. Now I again want do double it. Again work or work hard and make it 4X and so on. And then death takes away everything from you. Whatever you are doing is true only when man is immortal.

The world would have been full of gardens, full of cheerful contented people. Existence doesn't need much. It's fully contented. That's the reason I wanted to meet an ordinary person. But you can always see a child. Jesus said - "Thou shalt not go to kingdom of god unless you become like a child." A child has all the qualities of an enlightened being. Observe a child very carefully. A child has no prejudices, you are full of that. Only thing you have is the prejudices borrowed from others and nothing else. That's the very basis of ego. A newly born child is fully enlightened. Can you imagine his/her mind? - utterly empty.
