Explore in All Directions With Quantum Spirituality

There are no controversies or contradictions in existence. But human beings are always in conflict. We live in a dilemma.

In science, before the concept of quantum was accepted, there was conflict between matter and energy. Postquantum this conflict disappeared. Matter and energy exist together. There is now a concept of singularity. Once you reach the spiritual zone, controversies disappear. Only when you play with words intellectually you create conflict and enter into a danger zone.

As long as you feel you are living two different lives, you are only playing with words. Think of normal material life as a horizontal line; think of spiritual life as a vertical line. When you try choosing between a material and spiritual life, you are choosing between the horizontal and vertical. Only when you understand that you can travel both horizontally and vertically, and even explode in all directions, do you understand that there are no contradictions. Till then you will be in conflict.

The mind enslaves you, making you believe that you can only travel one way: horizontally or vertically. That is why you do not grow in spiritual sadhanas which force you to choose between the material and spiritual. We only wish to try to transform; we really do not wish to transform; yet we like to proclaim our wish to transform. We go to a discourse, visit a temple on a holiday; we practise parttime spirituality. This fills us with hypocrisy and guilt. Even meditation becomes a ritual if it is restricted to one part of your life at one time in a given space. In true spirituality, your life itself becomes meditation. Meditation is not a quantity that is to be added to your life, it is a quality that needs to be built into your life.

Singularity is beyond matter and energy. Similarly, quantum spirituality is beyond material and spiritual lives. You need to be both in the horizontal and vertical lines simultaneously. What I wish to give you is a technique; not an empty idea. If you go beyond mind you explode in all directions, vertically, horizontally, in all directions.

There is no starting point to worldly life; there is no end point to spiritual life. Enlightenment is not an end; it is a beginning. An ultimate experience is not the last experience. You ask, how can I retain the bliss of a meditation programme? The moment you wish to retain bliss, it escapes like water flowing in a river stays in your open palms but escapes when you close your palms. When you are in bliss just enjoy bliss. You can never possess nithya ananda.

You ask what you have to renounce to be spiritual. I say, please do not renounce what you have. Renounce what you do not have.

Living in the present moment is the missing link that helps you to traverse the horizontal and vertical lines at the same time and space. Every moment is a possibility that you can explode in. In quantum spirituality there is no attachment or detachment. Everything is divine, nothing is excluded. If you wish to be enlightened drop the idea of enlightenment. You are then in the zone of quantum spirituality.
