Acceptance Tantric Alchemy says “Do Not Fight”, be friendly with all the energies that are given to you. Welcome them. Feel grateful that you have anger, that you have greed. Feel grateful because these are the hidden sources and they can be transformed, they can be opened. Tantra says “accept whatsoever you are.” This is the basic note, total acceptance. Only from total acceptance can you grow. You are a great mystery of multi-dimensional energy. Accept and move with every energy, with deep sensitivity, with awareness, with love, with understanding. Totality Another message we use in meditation practices is “To be total in action is to be free in action”. Do any action totally and you are free of it; you don’t look back, because there is nothing to see. You have no hang-over. You simply go ahead. Your eyes are clear of the past, your vision is not clouded. In that clarity you will come to know what really is. Have you observed? We push aside one thing and we start something else and before this is complete we start another. We become more and more burdened. This is what karma is. Karma means incomplete action. Compassion You’re angry… Centeredness The moment you accept yourself you become beautiful. When you are delighted with your own body, it will delight others also. Many people will fall in love with you, because you yourself are in love with yourself. When you are angry with yourself, you know that you are ugly. There is no need to chase anybody. The chasing game starts only because we have not been in love with ourselves. Tantra teaches the first thing; be loving towards your body, befriend your body, respect your body, take care of your body. Treat it well and it will reveal great mysteries to you. All growth depends on how you are related to your body. Awakening the Senses The Senses are your doors of perception; the senses are your windows into reality. You have to drop the dullness and your senses have to be cleansed. Your senses are like a mirror that has become dull because so much dust has gathered upon it. The dust has to be cleaned away. Innocence Every child is born with beautiful senses. Watch a child. Meditation & Aloneness Meditation is a jump, from the head to the heart and ultimately from the heart to the being. You will be going deeper and deeper; your calculations will have to be left behind, where all logic becomes irrelevant. Meditation is the art of living with yourself, the art of being joyful by being alone. A Meditator can sit joyously for months. He does not hanker for the other because his own inner ecstasy is so much, so overpowering. If the other comes into his life, it is not a need, it is a luxury. For the person who can not live wit him or herself, the other is a need because whenever he is alone, he is bored with himself. Because it is a need, it becomes dependence; you have to depend on the other. Dependence is a kind of slavery. Because you are not meditative, you need others to keep you occupied. Because you are not meditative, you are not able to love either, because love is an overflow of joy. You are bored with yourself, what do you have to share with the other? In our incapacity to be alone and ecstatic, we are continuously trying to snatch some happiness from each other.We become beggars. First meditate, then much love will happen on its own accord. Then being with others is beautiful and being alone is also beautiful. You don’t depend on others and you don’t make others depend on you. Then there is a quality of friendliness. Masks: Losing the fear to be seen Nobody knows about himself. Nobody is acquainted with himself. We only see the faces of others. A woman looks beautiful; a man looks beautiful, all smiles. We don’t know the anguish. Maybe all those smiles are just a facade to deceive others and to deceive ourselves. The Polarity Male/Female What is the need to understand the woman or the man? The need is because every man has a feminine part in his being and every woman has a masculine part in her being. The only way to understand it is to be in deep intimate relationship with someone. Let trust grow so all barriers dissolve. Come so close to each other that you can look deep into each other. Don’t be dishonest with each other. You will be able to dive deep into the psyche of the polarity female/male. And that is the only thing that is needed; to know your inner feminine part or your masculine part. Relationship becomes a mirror. The woman starts looking into you and starts finding her own masculine parts, the man looks into the woman and starts discovering his femininity. And the more you become aware of your other pole the more whole you can be and the more integrated you can be. When your inner man and your inner woman have disappeared into each other, when they have become one integrated whole, you have become an individual. Carl Jung calls this process "individualization". Celebration Feel the joy and the pride that existence needs you, otherwise you will not be here, now. Rejoice that existence cannot be without you. In the first place, that is why you are here. Existence has given you an opportunity with tremendous treasures hidden within you, of beauty, of ecstasy, of freedom.
