Happy Guru Purnima.
May this sacred day propel your journey with grace and even greater intensity.
"There are seven billion people on the planet today. How many of them ever get an opportunity to sit in one place for one whole week and meditate? Not even anywhere near 1% of the population.
They will not get that opportunity even if they wish. Who knows what the situation would be for you next time around?
When the opportunity has come and consciousness has risen to a point where it is capable of understanding the possibility, one must go for it, all out. Never again it may come, or at least not in a reasonable amount of time. If a certain level of initiations has happened, reminders can come, but you know how easy it is to ignore reminders.
You know how many times you have ignored the alarm in the morning. Especially the way the world is going, with the number of things happening around people, you can ignore just about anything.
People are capable of ignoring a sunrise, a sunset, a monsoon, and anything else, because they are watching the television or they are texting.
So when the opportunity has come, if there is any sense in you, you have to make it. If you want to postpone it, don’t waste my time.
My interest is only in those people who want to make it in this lifetime. Those who want to do it in another lifetime can go elsewhere. I don’t want to waste my time and life on them."
