"Just look around! This immense universe is functioning so perfectly well that nothing can be added to it. It needs no improvement. Seeing this, one relaxes. If stars can go on dancing and flowers can go on blooming and birds can go on singing, why not you? You also belong to this universe. You are part of it.

"Desire is alcoholic, desire is the greatest drug possible. Marijuana is nothing, lsd is nothing. Desire is the greatest lsd possible " the ultimate in drugs.What is the nature of desire?

Now you are not here, you are absent from here, because the mind is creating a dream. This absentness is your drunkenness. Be present!"
