Words from the Master

You are a part of Existence, and whatever causes you to think otherwise, is ego. That’s all. It is like this: A fish, whether it likes it or not, whether it accepts it or not, whether it believes it or not, is a part of the ocean. It has two choices. It either lives happily in the ocean, or fights with the ocean and still continues to live in it, making its own life miserable.

If you flow with Existence, you will enjoy every moment of your life. You will become porous, sensitive, creative and fluid.

A small story:

A teacher took her students out for a picnic.
They played games, ate their snack and enjoyed themselves.
Suddenly, the teacher drew their attention to a beautiful rainbow that had formed in the sky.
The children looked up at it with awe.
The teacher watched them and announced, “Alright now, let us give a clap to the artist behind it!”
The students were for a moment confused, but quickly understood and broke into applause!


Children need to be taught to appreciate the Existential beauty surrounding them. Else, they will lose the connection with Existence very quickly and become egoistic. They should not be allowed to become mechanical and egoistic. They should be brought up to become porous and sensitive.

When you can appreciate Existence, you have come closer to it. The whole of Existence is creativity. A creative person is closer to his heart than his mind. When you create, you are close to God. God is the creator, the created and the creation. When you create, you express your Being, the quality of Existence. When you create, you are showing your love and appreciation towards Existence; you are adding a little more beauty to Existence.

When you are full of wonder for Existence, you can create. On the other hand, when you are full of ego, you cannot create; and even if you create, your creation will be a dead creation. It will be like a plastic rose, which looks perfect but lacks the fragrance and life. When an artist creates out of love, he can give a certain special quality to the creation. If he creates out of ego, the creation is lifeless.

When you are not in tune with Existence, you will miss the fragrance of Existence. It is as if, when a beautiful fragrance surrounds you, you are closing your nose with stinking fingers. This is ego. When you experience the fragrance of Existence, you will start experiencing the synchronicity of it also.

You will be able to resonate with the whole of Existence. You will be able to see that every single leaf and twig is a manifestation of Existence or God. When you are in this state, whatever you seek, you will find, because you are moving in tune with Existence. Life then becomes a miracle! This is what we call the synchronicity of Existence.

And understand one thing: When you are resonating with Existence, you will not seek greedily. Simply, Existence will keep giving you what you need for that moment – even before you seek it. This is what I mean when I say ‘whatever you seek, you will find’.
