Lord\u00a0Ganesha\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0only\u00a0God\u00a0that\u00a0has\u00a0NO\u00a0HUMAN\u00a0HEAD.<\/p>

Lord\u00a0Ketu\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0only\u00a0entity\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0whole\u00a0gamut\u00a0of\u00a0astrology\u00a0that\u00a0has\u00a0NO\u00a0HUMAN\u00a0HEAD.<\/p>

The\u00a0divine message\u00a0that\u00a0they share with us\u00a0is\u00a0to – TURN\u00a0IN.<\/p>

But\u00a0the\u00a0majority\u00a0is\u00a0always concerned with TURNING ON. (RAHU)<\/p>

It\u00a0is\u00a0not a fact\u00a0that\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha\u2019s\u00a0human\u00a0head\u00a0was cut by Shiva. It\u00a0is\u00a0just a symbolic representation – a divine message\u00a0that\u00a0human\u00a0beings should think less and feel more.\u00a0That\u00a0human\u00a0beings should start moving beyond mind.<\/p>

Thinking helps to solve problems\/puzzles\u00a0that\u00a0are created by thinking – by\u00a0the\u00a0mind.<\/p>

Whatever problems are created by\u00a0the\u00a0mind – you can solve it by using\u00a0the\u00a0same mind –\u00a0the\u00a0thinking pattern. Mind\u00a0is\u00a0mathematics – so you can solve mathematics by thinking because it\u00a0is\u00a0created by\u00a0the\u00a0Mind.\u00a0The\u00a0trees\u00a0that\u00a0you count – 1 2 3 – this\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0mathematics\u00a0of\u00a0your mind –\u00a0the\u00a0trees\u00a0has\u00a0nothing to do with it. It\u00a0is\u00a0a creation\u00a0of\u00a0your mind – whatever\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0creation\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0mind can be solved by\u00a0the\u00a0mind – by thinking.<\/p>

BUT – what\u00a0is\u00a0NOT\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0mind – but\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0HEART or\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0NATURE –\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0COSMOS- cannot be solved by\u00a0the\u00a0MIND – then you are trapped – then you all cannot find\u00a0the\u00a0answer –\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0how\u00a0the\u00a0so called intellectuals then start struggling – they become impotent\u00a0in\u00a0solving\u00a0the\u00a0case – because they miss to realize\u00a0that\u00a0the\u00a0problem\u00a0is\u00a0existential.<\/p>

Love\u00a0is\u00a0also an existential problem. You cannot solve love problems by thinking – you may go on thinking and thinking and thinking but you will come back to where you had started – you will find yourself trapped\u00a0in\u00a0a circle\u00a0that\u00a0just never ends and still you go on thinking\u2026..with\u00a0no\u00a0absolute solution!<\/p>

Thinking won\u2019t help\u00a0in\u00a0such situations.\u00a0Only\u00a0when you stop thinking –\u00a0only\u00a0when there\u00a0is\u00a0NO\u00a0HEAD\u00a0–\u00a0NO\u00a0MIND –\u00a0that\u00a0you can FEEL and it\u00a0is\u00a0only\u00a0when you FEEL\u00a0that\u00a0you can find\u00a0the\u00a0way –\u00a0the\u00a0solution –\u00a0the\u00a0answer to your problem.<\/p>

There are many such existential problems – DEATH. BIRTH. LOVE. These all are existential problems – they are beyond mind and when you try to solve them by using your Mind – you fail, you fail miserably because you miss to understand\u00a0that\u00a0these existential problems cannot be solved by thinking – but\u00a0only\u00a0when you stop thinking and start feeling – thinking won\u2019t let you \u2018vibrate\u2019 with\u00a0the\u00a0existence – it\u00a0is\u00a0only\u00a0when you start feeling\u00a0that\u00a0you can vibrate and it\u00a0is\u00a0only\u00a0when you vibrate\u00a0that\u00a0you start coming close to\u00a0the\u00a0source\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0problem.<\/p>

When there\u00a0is\u00a0TOO MUCH\u00a0OF\u00a0THINKING (HEAD) – you are simply missing to identify\u00a0the\u00a0source\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0problem.<\/p>

When there\u00a0is\u00a0absolutely\u00a0NO\u00a0THINKING,\u00a0NO\u00a0MIND – TRUTH appears before you – you find\u00a0the\u00a0source\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0problem and when\u00a0the\u00a0source\u00a0is\u00a0found –\u00a0the\u00a0solution comes on its own!<\/p>

In the space of no-mind, truth descends like light.<\/strong>

Meditation\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0state\u00a0of\u00a0NO\u00a0MIND. When there\u00a0is\u00a0absolutely\u00a0NO\u00a0THINKING – meditation happens. When there are \u2018thoughts\u2019 – it\u00a0is\u00a0a distraction and when there are\u00a0NO\u00a0THOUGHTS – it\u00a0is\u00a0Meditation.<\/p>

Lord\u00a0Ganesha\u00a0is\u00a0Meditation.
Lord\u00a0Ketu\u00a0is\u00a0Meditation.<\/p>

The\u00a0idol\u00a0of\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha simply reflects HIS state\u00a0of\u00a0Meditation. There\u00a0is\u00a0absolutely\u00a0NO\u00a0HEAD,NO MIND – Ganesha\u00a0is\u00a0deeply engrossed WITHIN – what a beautiful representation\u00a0is\u00a0this – one\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0greatest wonders with such a great message –\u00a0that\u00a0IF YOU REALLY WANT TO EXPERIENCE JOY, HAPPINESS, PEACE than – look at me, says Ganesha – I have\u00a0NO\u00a0HEAD\u00a0–\u00a0NO\u00a0MIND – I am deeply engrossed within by TURNING INWARDS.<\/p>

Mohan asked \u201c Then how come\u00a0the\u00a0Elephant face?\u201d<\/p>

The\u00a0HEAD\u00a0or FACE\u00a0of\u00a0Elephant\u00a0is\u00a0just a representation\u00a0of\u00a0HIS deep wisdom. Elephants are\u00a0the\u00a0wisest animals and so\u00a0the\u00a0ancient Seers and Sages – instilled\u00a0the\u00a0idol\u00a0of\u00a0Ganesha with an Elephant Face or\u00a0Head\u00a0– when\u00a0in\u00a0reality this deity\u00a0has\u00a0NO\u00a0HEAD,\u00a0NO\u00a0MIND and\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0what MAKES HIM one\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0GREATEST LORDS – without taking\u00a0the\u00a0name\u00a0of\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha –\u00a0NO\u00a0SCRIPTURE begins – it\u00a0only\u00a0begins and completes when one says:<\/p>

|| \u201c Shri Ganeshaya Namaha ||<\/strong><\/p>

One\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0most striking similarity between\u00a0Ketu\u00a0and Ganesha –\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0quality\u00a0of\u00a0BEING DETACHED!<\/p>

How? asked Mohan.<\/p>

I asked him \u201c What do you do after worshiping\u00a0the\u00a0idol\u00a0of\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha for 10 days during Ganesha festival?\u201d<\/p>

\u201cI disperse\u00a0the\u00a0idol\u00a0in\u00a0a clean flowing water – river or sea.\u201d said Mohan.<\/p>

So you understand. And I appeal to all my close followers, fellow travelers and readers – understand\u00a0the\u00a0fact\u00a0that\u00a0the\u00a0action\u00a0of\u00a0dispersing\u00a0the\u00a0idol\u00a0in\u00a0itself\u00a0is\u00a0a message –\u00a0that\u00a0you should live with DETACHMENT! For 10 days you worship\u00a0the\u00a0HIS idol – but\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0end – what\u00a0is\u00a0he asking to do? To NOT to remain ATTACHED but to detach yourself and disperse (LET GO) HIS idol by dropping it\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0flowing water!<\/p>

Understand this and this\u00a0is\u00a0very significant –\u00a0the\u00a0whole\u00a0message\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0VISARJAN process (dispersing\u00a0the\u00a0Ganesha idol)\u00a0is\u00a0to help you realize\u00a0the\u00a0fact\u00a0that\u00a0LIFE SHOULD BE LIVED WITH DETACHMENT.<\/p>

And\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0EXACTLY\u00a0the\u00a0divine message\u00a0of\u00a0Lord\u00a0KETU\u00a0– DETACHMENT!<\/p>

Real success\u00a0in\u00a0life comes\u00a0only\u00a0through DETACHMENT – one who self-realizes this truth goes a long way\u2026.<\/p>

“Great calm, generous detachment, selfless love, disinterested effort:<\/strong>
these are what make for success in life. If you can find peace in yourself and can spread comfort around you, you will be happier than an empress.”<\/strong>

India\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0only\u00a0country and Hindu\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0only\u00a0religion – a unique religion where people make\u00a0the\u00a0mud idol and then\u00a0the\u00a0same people disperse\u00a0the\u00a0mud idol! And it\u00a0is\u00a0a very deep message from\u00a0the\u00a0Hindu civilization\u00a0that\u00a0– NOTHING\u00a0is\u00a0permanent and nothing can be permanent, even your image\u00a0of\u00a0God!<\/p>

To throw away\u00a0the\u00a0idol\u00a0of\u00a0Ganesha – to disperse\u00a0the\u00a0idol\u00a0of\u00a0Ganesha – a great courage\u00a0is\u00a0required – and this\u00a0is\u00a0deep, very deep. You have put everything\u00a0that\u00a0you had\u00a0in\u00a0your Father – to nurture Him, to comfort Him – for many days you have loved Him, worshiped Him and now you have to LET HIM GO – how difficult it\u00a0is\u00a0going to be….how much courage\u00a0is\u00a0required to let him go….and you don’t know next year if you would be there again to bring him back! But it\u00a0has\u00a0to be done –\u00a0the\u00a0message\u00a0of\u00a0Ganesha\u00a0is\u00a0simple – \u2018LOVE ME – but Let\u00a0that\u00a0LOVE be detached!\u2019<\/p>

“The Indian civilization says ‘Nothing is permanent and nothing can be permanent, even your image of God.<\/strong>
Because you have created it, it cannot be permanent thing. Don’t befool yourself. When the time is over, go and disolve (Visarjan) the God idol. Your God cannot be permanent. Go on disolving your Gods – create them and disolve them. Worship them and disolve them. Only then can you reach that GOD which is NOT your creation.”<\/strong>

Detachment\u00a0is\u00a0being lovable – but without being possessive.<\/p>

Detachment means not\u00a0that\u00a0you should not own bungalows and cars and beautiful things\u00a0in\u00a0life – YOU CAN HAVE ALL\u00a0OF\u00a0THEM – BUT you should not be attached to those things. Even if you have 10 bungalows and a dozen cars – still you SHOULD NOT GET ATTACHED to them. But unfortunately\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0what happens!\u00a0The\u00a0things\u00a0in\u00a0your life possess you – you think you possess them but you becomes so attached to them\u00a0that\u00a0they start possessing you and then you are trapped – you are deeply trapped!<\/p>

But that nothing should own you.”<\/strong>

Look at\u00a0the\u00a0beautiful lotus flower – it\u00a0is\u00a0rooted\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0water – but it\u00a0is\u00a0always found – above\u00a0the\u00a0water!<\/p>

<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The\u00a0real Yogi\u00a0is\u00a0like a lotus flower – HE\u00a0is\u00a0very much with us but not attached. His\u00a0whole\u00a0being\u00a0is\u00a0LOVE – if you come, he will offer you as much love as you can receive – and if you leave, he will not be disturbed – because HIS love\u00a0is\u00a0not dependent on\u00a0the\u00a0outside factor – he\u00a0is\u00a0no\u00a0more falling\u00a0in\u00a0love – he\u00a0has\u00a0become LOVE – whoever comes to HIM – will be touched and blessed by\u00a0the\u00a0fragrance\u00a0of\u00a0his detached love.<\/p>

“Love is always an attachment to you; the deeper the attachment the more you think – it is love! But the MASTER’S love is utterly detached. He loves, yet he is NOT bound by it. He loves, but he is NOT binding on you. You know a love which creates excitement. The master’s love is utterly peaceful; there is no excitement. It is nothing to do with romance.” – Osho<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

\u00a0<\/div><\/div><\/div>

The\u00a0Master\u00a0is\u00a0contented man. He\u00a0has\u00a0absolutely\u00a0NO\u00a0expectations. HE asks for NOTHING. So then it becomes difficult to understand HIM – especially those who are always HUNGRY! Buddha calls those people HUNGRY who always want more and more and more – this MORE\u00a0is\u00a0RAHU. And\u00a0NO\u00a0MORE\u00a0is\u00a0KETU!<\/p>

Lord\u00a0Ganesha wants nothing –\u00a0has\u00a0HAS\u00a0no\u00a0expectations – HE\u00a0is\u00a0in\u00a0his peace and so whenever anybody\u00a0is\u00a0suffering because\u00a0of\u00a0RAHU – I ask him or her to visit\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha temple, to worship HIM, to read His Shlokas – His Stotras.<\/p>

It\u00a0is\u00a0NOT\u00a0that\u00a0Ganesha and\u00a0KETU\u00a0are\u00a0the\u00a0same. Whenever I mention\u00a0in\u00a0my answers – and I have been mentioning many times –\u00a0that\u00a0when I say\u00a0Ketu\u00a0is\u00a0Sri Ganesha – I mean when you worship GANESHA –\u00a0the\u00a0QUALITIES\u00a0of\u00a0KETU\u00a0will start enhancing within your being. Then you will understand\u00a0KETU\u00a0– then you will RESONATE with HIS energy – then you will start TURNING INWARD!<\/p>

And this\u00a0is\u00a0significant – this\u00a0is\u00a0very significant for you ALL to understand\u00a0that\u00a0the\u00a0more you WORSHIP GANESHA –\u00a0the\u00a0more you would NURTURE\u00a0the\u00a0KETU\u00a0QUALITIES within YOU and\u00a0that\u00a0will be a great blow to RAHU!\u00a0That\u00a0will be a great danger to RAHU – because NOW you are becoming intelligent – now you are TURNING INWARD – now you are becoming WISE – now you are\u00a0NO\u00a0MORE interested on\u00a0the\u00a0outside – now you are slowly steadily getting ROOTED WITHIN YOURSELF – and\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0indeed a great transformation – a great transformation\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0making.<\/p>

The\u00a0more you go deep within your being –\u00a0the\u00a0more you meditate by focusing on your breath – breath\u00a0in\u00a0– breath out – between these two actions\u00a0the\u00a0whole\u00a0story\u00a0of\u00a0your life\u00a0is\u00a0scripted.

And\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0exactly what this SOCIETY wants –\u00a0the\u00a0SOCIETY NEVER wants you to become WISE because then you will become INDEPENDENT – then you cannot be exploited – then\u00a0the\u00a0SOCIETY will be\u00a0in\u00a0trouble – whereas\u00a0the\u00a0SOCIETY always wants you to be\u00a0in\u00a0TROUBLE so\u00a0that\u00a0the\u00a0\u2018meter\u2019\u00a0of\u00a0money continues – uninterrupted!<\/p>

“No society wants you to become wise. It is against the investment of all societies. If people are wise they cannot be exploited. If they are intelligent they cannot be subjugated, they cannot be forced in a mechanical life, to live like robots….they will have the fragrance of rebellion around them.” – Osho<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

\u00a0<\/div><\/div><\/div>

A wise man\u00a0is\u00a0an \u2018Individual\u2019 – he\u00a0is\u00a0not behind personalities – he thrown away\u00a0the\u00a0\u2018mask\u2019\u00a0of\u00a0personality and lives his life by being himself. A wise man\u00a0is\u00a0ALIVE –\u00a0is\u00a0AFIRE – he\u00a0is\u00a0COURAGEOUS – he would rather die than to be enslaved!<\/p>

Lord\u00a0Ganesha represents\u00a0the\u00a0wisdom\u00a0of\u00a0such a wise man. It\u00a0is\u00a0through\u00a0LORD\u00a0GANESHA –\u00a0that\u00a0you realize\u00a0the\u00a0beauty\u00a0of\u00a0KETU.<\/p>

By and by – whatever DEITY you worship – certain QUALITIES\u00a0of\u00a0a planet or an\u00a0entity\u00a0such as\u00a0KETU\u00a0develops within you!<\/p>

When you worship:<\/p>

Lord\u00a0GANESHA:\u00a0KETU\u00a0qualities develop within you.<\/p>

Lord\u00a0DATTATREYA: JUPITER qualities develop within you.<\/p>

Lord\u00a0VISHNU: JUPITER qualities develop within you.<\/p>

Lord\u00a0KRISHNA: JUPITER and MERCURY qualities develop within you.<\/p>

Lord\u00a0SHIVA: SUN MOON\u00a0KETU\u00a0qualities develop within you.<\/p>

Lord\u00a0HANUMAN – MARS QUALITIES<\/p>

Lord\u00a0MHASOBA (a well known deity\u00a0of\u00a0Maharashtra) – MARS QUALITIES<\/p>

GODDESS LAKSHMI – VENUS and MERCURY<\/p>

GODDESS DURGA – MARS and VENUS<\/p>

RAHU Qualities are developed when you worship TANTRIK GODS – or GODS\u00a0that\u00a0rule\u00a0the\u00a0UNDERWORLD – meaning\u00a0the\u00a0PATAL LOK. Generally\u00a0the\u00a0Reptile Snake Gods represent\u00a0the\u00a0qualities\u00a0of\u00a0RAHU. Some Tantrik Goddess or Goddess\u00a0of\u00a0Tantra also represent RAHU qualities.<\/p>

So every DIETY\u00a0is\u00a0in\u00a0a way – a BRIDGE between YOU and\u00a0the\u00a0concerned PLANET energy.<\/p>

While if you ask me – then to me\u00a0the\u00a0GREATEST BRIDGE\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0MASTER –\u00a0the\u00a0GURU! Through\u00a0the\u00a0benevolent master – you experience GOD. And Sant Kabir beautifully mentions\u00a0the\u00a0significance\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0GURU through his divine words and those words should be inscribed\u00a0in\u00a0GOLD:<\/p>

“If here before me stand both – my Guru (master) and Govind (the almighty), I would first prostrate before my Guru. Because – it is HE who revealed to me the Govind.” – Saint Kabir<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

Beautiful. Kabir goes deep into our heart – one\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0greatest saint\u00a0that\u00a0the\u00a0world had ever know! I humbly prostrate before His Holiness – Sant Kabir.<\/p>

All\u00a0the\u00a0divine saints would not have become saints – had it not been\u00a0the\u00a0grace\u00a0of\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha and\u00a0the\u00a0matured state\u00a0of\u00a0KETU\u00a0within them!<\/p>

WITHOUT\u00a0KETU\u00a0– there\u00a0is\u00a0absolutely\u00a0no\u00a0enlightenment.\u00a0KETU\u00a0therefore\u00a0is\u00a0one\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0greatest \u2018tool\u2019\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0benevolent GURU – because\u00a0KETU\u00a0is\u00a0DETACHMENT and unless you start becoming DETACHED there\u00a0is\u00a0absolutely\u00a0no\u00a0way for you to PROGRESS\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0true sense!<\/p>

You have asked a very beautiful question – and it\u00a0has\u00a0many dimensions to it.\u00a0The\u00a0last dimension\u00a0is\u00a0of\u00a0Mecury!<\/p>

One\u00a0has\u00a0to understand\u00a0that\u00a0Mercury\u00a0is\u00a0your INTELLECT.<\/p>

But Intellect\u00a0is\u00a0a very poor substitute for Intelligence!<\/p>

So when you come\u00a0in\u00a0contact with\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha – when you start worshiping HIM with pure heart, unwavering faith and devotion –\u00a0the\u00a0INTELLECT within you starts TUNING with your HEART and when INTELLECT tunes with your HEART – INTELLIGENCE\u00a0is\u00a0born – Intelligence therefore\u00a0is\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0HEART and NOT\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0HEAD.<\/p>

“Intelligence is intellect in tune with your heart.” -OSHO<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

\u00a0<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Intellect\u00a0is\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0MIND. Everyday I receive all kinds\u00a0of\u00a0emails, hundreds\u00a0of\u00a0emails from \u2018intellectual\u2019 men and women – and all they do\u00a0is\u00a0that\u00a0they write long emails asking about this house and\u00a0that\u00a0house and\u00a0that\u00a0yoga and this yoga. But one\u00a0in\u00a0a million comes and asks\u00a0ONLY\u00a0that\u00a0which can help him realize\u00a0the\u00a0real thing! And because he or she knows what\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0REAL thing –\u00a0that\u00a0they can ask some real good questions –\u00a0the\u00a0rest are yet to realize what\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0REAL THING and so\u00a0the\u00a0question they ask are also not real – just a lot\u00a0of\u00a0noise, and nothing else!<\/p>

Mercury therefore\u00a0is\u00a0disliked by\u00a0the\u00a0master – Jupiter! Because\u00a0the\u00a0master\u00a0is\u00a0all for\u00a0the\u00a0heart – and mercury\u00a0is\u00a0all\u00a0in\u00a0the\u00a0HEAD! Through\u00a0the\u00a0HEAD\u00a0you can travel from A to Z – but beyond Z\u00a0the\u00a0doors closed – there\u00a0is\u00a0no\u00a0further going, you are trapped – you are utterly trapped\u00a0in\u00a0your intellectualism.<\/p>

This intellectualism\u00a0is\u00a0TRANSFORMED into intelligence\u00a0only\u00a0when you worship\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha –\u00a0the\u00a0more your SEVA (service) towards HIM grows –\u00a0the\u00a0more\u00a0the\u00a0\u2018PLASTIC ROSE\u2019 starts transforming into a \u2018REAL ROSE\u2019!<\/p>

And REAL ROSE\u00a0is\u00a0beautiful -yes it\u00a0has\u00a0many imperfections and yet it\u00a0is\u00a0BEAUTIFUL because now it\u00a0has\u00a0a certain FRAGRANCE to it , a certain LIFE to it!<\/p>

A REAL MAN, A REAL WOMAN – I like them,\u00a0in\u00a0fact I love them. But let me tell you they are\u00a0in\u00a0minority –\u00a0in\u00a0fact one\u00a0in\u00a0a million.\u00a0In\u00a0this KALI YUG, men and woman also disguise themselves as REAL – when they are just FAKING it – so one\u00a0has\u00a0to be really cautious before opening\u00a0the\u00a0doors\u00a0of\u00a0your heart.<\/p>

Such fake men and women – then come up with\u00a0the\u00a0idea\u00a0of\u00a0non-attachment – but\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0again an escape route – they are AFRAID\u00a0that\u00a0if they get into a relationship then they may get attached and then\u00a0the\u00a0pain.<\/p>

Non-attachment\u00a0is\u00a0NOT detachment.<\/p>

Non-attachment\u00a0is\u00a0a makeup from those fake men and fake women who are afraid\u00a0of\u00a0getting attached and so they keep running away from any relationships.<\/p>

Detachment – a detached man or woman\u00a0is\u00a0NOT AFRAID\u00a0of\u00a0getting attached.\u00a0The\u00a0\u2018Inner Engineering\u2019\u00a0is\u00a0so strongly developed through meditations\u00a0that\u00a0nobody can move him or disturb him – such a man\u00a0is\u00a0a man\u00a0of\u00a0awareness, he lives, laughs with you but he\u00a0is\u00a0absolutely detached – if you take him to your Palace – he will come, if you ask him to stay beneath a tree – he will stay – for him PALACE or TREE doesn\u2019t make a difference – he may sleep on\u00a0the\u00a0Royal Bed and he\u00a0is\u00a0also happy to sleep on\u00a0the\u00a0hard ground – for him there\u00a0is\u00a0NO\u00a0attachment – he can come anytime and he can also leave anytime – nobody can bond him – he remains detached but with abundance\u00a0of\u00a0LOVE\u00a0in\u00a0HIS heart.<\/p>

There\u00a0is\u00a0a very deep connection between detachment and intelligence! An intellectual man can never live a detached life. He may live a non-attached life – but for him living a detached life\u00a0is\u00a0next to impossible!<\/p>

Such an intellectual man goes on living his life by believing\u00a0that\u00a0– SHE\u00a0is\u00a0MY WIFE. SHE\u00a0is\u00a0MY DAUGHTER.\u00a0THAT\u00a0is\u00a0MY Bungalow.\u00a0THAT\u00a0is\u00a0MY CAR.\u00a0THAT\u00a0IS\u00a0MY DESK.\u00a0THAT\u00a0IS\u00a0MY COMPANY.\u00a0THAT\u00a0IS\u00a0MY\u2026..MY and MY and MY and this MY never gets him out\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0CAGE. He himself prepares a nice CAGE around him and then starts feeling suffocated and then comes and asks \u201c Why my life\u00a0is\u00a0so miserable?\u201d<\/p>

Now what to tell him. And first\u00a0of\u00a0all\u00a0is\u00a0he going to ever understand a single word\u00a0that\u00a0I may share with him?<\/p>

People are running all over\u00a0the\u00a0world\u00a0in\u00a0search\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0Master –\u00a0in\u00a0search\u00a0of\u00a0a Guide –\u00a0the\u00a0question\u00a0is\u00a0– even by luck you found one – how\u00a0is\u00a0it going to help you – if YOU are yet NOT READY to understand his words, his language?<\/p>

Therefore I say – read, read some\u00a0of\u00a0my books and then come to me – then there\u00a0is\u00a0a possibility\u00a0that\u00a0you may relate to what I saying to you – you may understand what I am trying to tell you. I already have ENOUGH – so by buying my books you are not going to make me rich. But by reading my books you can certainly become rich – WITHIN.<\/p>

And a man who\u00a0is\u00a0becoming RICH from WITHIN\u00a0is\u00a0a man\u00a0of\u00a0worth. It\u00a0is\u00a0worth helping such a man – because\u00a0the\u00a0THIRST\u00a0in\u00a0him\u00a0is\u00a0now for\u00a0that\u00a0– which\u00a0is\u00a0beyond –\u00a0the\u00a0divine –\u00a0the\u00a0unseen\u2026.<\/p>

The\u00a0real blessing\u00a0is\u00a0when you start turning inward.\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0most significant deity whose message for all HIS devotees\u00a0is\u00a0to turn inwards. Through HIS appearance –\u00a0the\u00a0message\u00a0is\u00a0loud and clear – HE\u00a0is\u00a0saying – \u2018look I have\u00a0NO\u00a0head,\u00a0No\u00a0mind – I am deeply engrossed within\u2026..and so why can\u2019t you do so?\u201d<\/p>

Through\u00a0the\u00a0ritual\u00a0of\u00a0immersing HIS idol on\u00a0the\u00a0tenth day\u00a0of\u00a0Ganesha festival –\u00a0the\u00a0Sages are simply conveying\u00a0the\u00a0message\u00a0that\u00a0DO NOT GET ATTACHED TO EVEN\u00a0THE\u00a0IDOL GOD – TIME comes and YOU HAVE TO LET GO – YOU HAVE TO IMMERSE by becoming DETACHED!<\/p>

“The dispersion of Lord Ganesha idol (Visarjan) is a very deep transformative process, because to throw a God needs courage, to throw a God needs DETACHMENT – to throw a God you wre just worshipping for 10 long days! You were falling at the feet of the God, crying, weeping, dancing, singing and NOW you yourself Go and throw it into the sea. So it was just a device to make you realize that NOTHING IS PERMANENT and you should learn to live a detached life.” – Osho<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

\u00a0<\/div><\/div><\/div>

KETU\u2019s message\u00a0is\u00a0also\u00a0the\u00a0same. Live a detached life. You are married – then do not become POSSESSIVE.\u00a0The\u00a0moment you become possessive – love ceases to exist! Love feels suffocated when there\u00a0is\u00a0NO\u00a0FREEDOM! Why you become POSSESSIVE? Because\u00a0of\u00a0your fear\u00a0of\u00a0losing! When I say – you – it\u00a0is\u00a0for all readers and followers. You fear\u00a0of\u00a0losing and so you want to possess.\u00a0In\u00a0this madness, you go on missing love –\u00a0the\u00a0more you become possessive\u00a0the\u00a0more you are moving away from love – then your wife starts feeling suffocated –\u00a0the\u00a0children,\u00a0the\u00a0mother,\u00a0the\u00a0father – everybody feel suffocated when somebody tries to POSSESS them – love ends and what remains\u00a0is\u00a0POSSESSION – what\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0point\u00a0in\u00a0living such a life?<\/p>

“Why be possessive? The possessiveness shows simply one thing – that you cannot trust existence. Non-possessiveness is basically trust in existence. There is no need to possess, because the whole is already ours.” – Osho<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

\u00a0<\/div><\/div>

When you LOVE – you simply LOVE. When you love – let there be\u00a0no\u00a0doubt – let there be\u00a0no\u00a0fear\u00a0of\u00a0losing – REMEMBER\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0message\u00a0of\u00a0KETU\u00a0–\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0what DETACHMENT\u00a0is\u00a0– you love – you simply love!<\/p>

An innocent man goes on loving – people may cheat him, he may be cheated by his lover – he may be cheated by his wife – but his INNOCENCE remains. Those who cheated him – those lovers and partners who left him must be utterly \u2018POOR\u2019 – but he remains RICH and his RICHNESS\u00a0is\u00a0in\u00a0his INNOCENCE – he may go on experiencing cheaters but HIS innocence always remains and it\u00a0is\u00a0this INNOCENCE\u00a0that\u00a0eventually moves him to\u00a0the\u00a0HIGHER ALTITUDES – then one day\u00a0the\u00a0benevolent master comes and says \u201c You idiot – do you still want to remain\u00a0in\u00a0this mud – or now you want to come with me?\u201d<\/p>

The\u00a0heart\u00a0of\u00a0an innocent man, women\u00a0is\u00a0like butter. Then\u00a0the\u00a0man starts crying then he goes\u00a0in\u00a0deep meditations – then he starts self-realizing\u00a0that\u00a0what an idiot he\u00a0has\u00a0been his\u00a0whole\u00a0life – running behind fake gold,fake beauties, fake world – then a great transformation starts happening – then\u00a0the\u00a0qualities\u00a0of\u00a0KETU\u00a0start developing – then he starts TURNING INWARD\u2026.then he starts realizing\u00a0the\u00a0many treasures\u00a0of\u00a0the\u00a0higher altitudes – then there\u00a0is\u00a0no\u00a0looking back –\u00a0the\u00a0sky (consciousness)\u00a0is\u00a0clear and he\u00a0is\u00a0ready to fly!<\/p>

It happens, it always happens\u00a0that\u00a0a man who\u00a0is\u00a0transforming\u00a0is\u00a0CRITICIZED by those \u2018plastic\u2019 men and women who don\u2019t know themselves!<\/p>

Once it happened – a young man and he was changing for good. He was taking efforts to rise above\u00a0the\u00a0Mind. He was meditating. He was coming closer to\u00a0the\u00a0realms\u00a0of\u00a0consciousness\u2026..but\u00a0the\u00a0society won\u2019t let him GROW so easily! You see –\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0how this fake society\u00a0is\u00a0– then some so called intellectuals and moralists started saying \u201c Look\u2026look at him\u2026.all his life he was such a womanizer and was such a drunkard and look look now how he\u00a0is\u00a0acting out as a virtuous man – as a prayerful man\u2026..\u201d<\/p>

You see – those who have been \u2018acting out\u2019 their\u00a0whole\u00a0life by wearing \u2018masks\u2019 – will\u00a0only\u00a0find\u00a0the\u00a0other also as \u2018acting out\u2019 – whatever\u00a0is\u00a0within you\u00a0is\u00a0what you will see on\u00a0the\u00a0outside!<\/p>

They all were making fun\u00a0of\u00a0him – talking about his shady pasts – they forgot\u00a0the\u00a0fact\u00a0that\u00a0every SAINT\u00a0has\u00a0a PAST and every SINNER\u00a0has\u00a0a FUTURE!<\/p>

Whenever\u00a0the\u00a0young man would walk to\u00a0the\u00a0temple – they would gossip between themselves \u201c Look look how\u00a0is\u00a0being saintly – taking Lord\u2019s name\u2026\u201d<\/p>

But they were unaware\u00a0that\u00a0Kabir was walking around. And Saint Kabir heard them gossiping – he looked at them and said \u201c He\u00a0has\u00a0got up from his SLEEP – but what about you all?\u201d<\/p>

And this\u00a0is\u00a0a very significant question\u00a0that\u00a0EACH ONE\u00a0OF\u00a0YOU SHOULD ASK YOURSELF BEFORE YOU POINT YOUR FINGER ON ANYBODY WHO\u00a0IS\u00a0TRYING TO TRANSFORM – to CHANGE HIMSELF FOR GOOD.<\/p>

At least he\u00a0has\u00a0got up from HIS \u2018SLEEP\u2019 – it doesn\u2019t matter what he had been doing while he was SLEEPING – what matters\u00a0is\u00a0that\u00a0HE\u00a0HAS\u00a0GOT UP FROM HIS SLEEP – he\u00a0is\u00a0no\u00a0more ASLEEP.<\/p>

But those who are gossiping – those who are JUDGING him – are still living a plastic life – they themselves are fast asleep – how can they realize\u00a0the\u00a0beauty\u00a0of\u00a0a person who\u00a0has\u00a0AWAKENED from his sleep?<\/p>

A person who awakened –\u00a0has\u00a0self-realized\u00a0the\u00a0futility\u00a0of\u00a0SEX,\u00a0of\u00a0MONEY,\u00a0of\u00a0WEALTH,\u00a0of\u00a0POWER,\u00a0of\u00a0STATUS – he had enough\u00a0of\u00a0it – and because he had it – he\u00a0has\u00a0come to\u00a0the\u00a0point\u00a0of\u00a0awakening where he\u00a0has\u00a0realized\u00a0that\u00a0all\u00a0of\u00a0this –\u00a0is\u00a0NOT\u00a0THE\u00a0ANSWER.<\/p>

This realization\u00a0has\u00a0to be EARNED through your own experiences and awareness.<\/p>

That\u00a0is\u00a0why it\u00a0is\u00a0necessary\u00a0that\u00a0one goes through\u00a0the\u00a0experiences\u00a0of\u00a0sex, experiences\u00a0of\u00a0power, experiences\u00a0of\u00a0status building, experiences\u00a0of\u00a0love, experiences\u00a0of\u00a0relationships – all these stages enrich him and help him to come to\u00a0the\u00a0SELF-REALIZATION\u00a0that\u00a0– it\u2019s NOT\u00a0the\u00a0ANSWER.<\/p>

Monks and priests, celibates and nuns – who suppress their sexuality – their greed – their lust – their attractions to power, status and money – simply end up\u00a0in\u00a0disastrous situations!<\/p>

3 priests were travelling – and they had to get their tickets at\u00a0the\u00a0Airport. One was a young priest –\u00a0the\u00a0other two were elder men. They told\u00a0the\u00a0young priest to go and get\u00a0the\u00a0tickets from\u00a0the\u00a0ticket counter.\u00a0The\u00a0priest goes – stands\u00a0in\u00a0a queue. After a while his turn comes to collect\u00a0the\u00a0tickets but he\u00a0is\u00a0totally taken aback, his hand start shaking, he goes weak on his knees because\u00a0the\u00a0lady sitting at\u00a0the\u00a0ticket counter\u00a0is\u00a0extremely sexy – her\u00a0whole\u00a0attire\u00a0is\u00a0so attractive\u00a0that\u00a0he can\u2019t get his eyes off from her – she says \u201cSir, tell me what you want?\u201d<\/p>

And\u00a0the\u00a0priest quickly responds – a slip\u00a0of\u00a0tongue – \u201c YOU\u201d!<\/p>

Then knowing\u00a0that\u00a0he\u00a0has\u00a0committed a SIN – he runs back to\u00a0the\u00a0elderly priests!<\/p>

So you see – what happens when you go on suppressing your sexual needs? Suppression\u00a0is\u00a0NOT\u00a0the\u00a0answer. You have to EXPERIENCE sex –\u00a0only\u00a0then can you realize\u00a0that\u00a0it\u00a0is\u00a0ENOUGH.\u00a0Only\u00a0then can you realize\u00a0that\u00a0it cannot last for longer – someday\u00a0the\u00a0body\u00a0is\u00a0going to give up – someday\u00a0the\u00a0bed\u00a0is\u00a0no\u00a0more going to shake – because by then you would have started shaking\u2026.<\/p>

Sex makes a man fool. But unless he becomes a fool – he cannot realize\u00a0the\u00a0beauty\u00a0of\u00a0being wise! Unless you experience darkness – you cannot appreciate\u00a0the\u00a0sunlight –\u00a0the\u00a0sunrise!<\/p>

In\u00a0the\u00a0West – sex\u00a0has\u00a0become a boring thing – too much\u00a0of\u00a0it\u00a0has\u00a0been done and experienced – now they don\u2019t find it interesting. You see – when you have it beyond limit – it goes on making your life a hell.<\/p>

SEX\u00a0is\u00a0your bondage. It keeps you unconscious. It does not allow you to see what you are doing. You are possessed by it. SEX possess you – and you remain ignorant – this ignorance than goes on making your life a hell – more hell and more and more hell.<\/p>

“I don’t call sex a sin, I simply call it STUPID. I am not saying that you will suffer hell – what more hell do you need to suffer? You are already suffering in it. And what does it go on giving to you? It just keeps you engaged – engaged in the other so that you can avoid yourself. That’s its basic stupidity: it keeps you ignorant because it keeps you ignoring yourself.”<\/strong>

But one should go through THIS HELL – THIS PLEASURES\u00a0OF\u00a0SEX –\u00a0only\u00a0then can you WAKE UP –\u00a0that\u00a0too if\u00a0that\u00a0much awareness\u00a0is\u00a0there –\u00a0that\u00a0much consciousness\u00a0is\u00a0there –\u00a0that\u00a0much blessings are there –\u00a0in\u00a0store for you!<\/p>

People come and ask \u201c\u00a0Is\u00a0there a place called – hell?\u201d<\/p>

The\u00a0master laughs – a loud belly laugh and says \u201c Are you crazy? You are living\u00a0in\u00a0HELL and asking if there\u00a0is\u00a0a place called Hell?\u201d<\/p>

IGNORANCE\u00a0is\u00a0your HELL.\u00a0The\u00a0more one gets driven by SEX, by MONEY, by POWER, by FAME, by WEALTH, by STATUS – he gets deeply into\u00a0the\u00a0clutches\u00a0of\u00a0IGNORANCE (RAHU).<\/p>

KETU\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0source\u00a0the\u00a0energy\u00a0that\u00a0help you to TURN\u00a0IN.\u00a0Whole\u00a0life you have been engaged\u00a0in\u00a0TURNING ON –\u00a0the\u00a0whole\u00a0essence\u00a0of\u00a0your life have been to TURN ON – now\u00a0KETU\u00a0is\u00a0helping you to TURN\u00a0IN\u00a0–\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha\u00a0is\u00a0showing through HIS appearance –\u00a0that\u00a0I AM TURNED\u00a0IN\u00a0– I AM MEDITATION – you can also do it – you can also make something out\u00a0of\u00a0your\u00a0human\u00a0life\u00a0that\u00a0you can carry forward after you DIE – after this\u00a0human\u00a0body\u00a0is\u00a0DEAD.<\/p>

The\u00a0question\u00a0is\u00a0– how many are willing to listen? How many are willing to TURN INWARD? how many are willing to RISE ABOVE SEX –\u00a0only\u00a0a man who can rise above SEX can experience\u00a0the\u00a0beyond – to rise above\u00a0the\u00a0sex – first he\u00a0has\u00a0to go through\u00a0the\u00a0experiences\u00a0of\u00a0sex – and so you will find many men who were married – had children – but later rose to greatest heights\u00a0of\u00a0spiritualism – because they SELF_REALIZED\u00a0the\u00a0futility\u00a0of\u00a0SEX by EXPERIENCING IT – they realized\u00a0that\u00a0there\u00a0is\u00a0something much beautiful – much lasting – much higher than SEX – their EVOLUTION to\u00a0the\u00a0HIGHER ALTITUDES\u00a0has\u00a0been through their journey from SEX to SUPER CONSCIOUSNESS!<\/p>

“The higher you rise, the more you can see. And when you reach the ultimate height, Buddhahood, you can see everything. Then there is no past and no future; then there is only present. And in that clarity, sex is the most stupid thing because it keeps you in bondage the longest.” – Osho<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>

The\u00a0very appearance\u00a0of\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha\u00a0is\u00a0of\u00a0meditation – there\u00a0is\u00a0NO\u00a0MIND,\u00a0NO\u00a0HEAD\u00a0– but there\u00a0is\u00a0immense TRUST – immense FAITH\u00a0in\u00a0oneself – deeply engrossed WITHIN\u2026.<\/p>

TRUST\u00a0is\u00a0very important.\u00a0In\u00a0fact LOVE\u00a0is\u00a0impossible without TRUST. Relationships break – when TRUST starts evaporating – first TRUST evaporates – then LOVE evaporates –\u00a0the\u00a0basis\u00a0is\u00a0always TRUST.<\/p>

TRUST can get you everywhere – but first TRUST\u00a0has\u00a0to be there.<\/p>

Once a young man came and said ” People worship Buddha – but Buddha\u00a0is\u00a0not alive …..”<\/p>

The\u00a0master smiled and said ”\u00a0No\u00a0Master Ever Dies For Those Who Can Trust.” Your Trust matters! But\u00a0the\u00a0reality\u00a0of\u00a0this\u00a0human\u00a0world\u00a0is\u00a0– people cannot trust those who are living – so how can they trust those who are dead! Your TRUST can change your perception towards life. Then even if\u00a0the\u00a0master\u00a0is\u00a0dead – you can connect. Then even if\u00a0the\u00a0master\u00a0has\u00a0dropped his physical body – you can connect.\u00a0The\u00a0key\u00a0is\u00a0– TRUST. When you trust Buddha – then\u00a0no\u00a0matter even if there\u00a0is\u00a0distance\u00a0of\u00a0centuries between you and HIM – still you can connect. Distance doesn’t matter – when TRUST happens – time and space doesn’t matter – you stay ‘connected’\u2026.<\/p>

“TRUST is the miracle. You can be in closeness with Mohammed or Jesus or Buddha right now if trust is there. But it is difficult! It is difficult because you don’t know how? You cannot trust a living person, how can you trust a dead? If trust happens then you are close to Buddha right now. And for persons who have faith, BUDDHA is ALIVE – very much ALIVE.”<\/strong>

All agreement, disgareement, is foolish, stupid. When truth knocks at your door you will simply be suddenely silent, unmoving.

Ketu\u00a0is\u00a0detachment. Ganesha\u00a0is\u00a0detachment. Their message\u00a0is\u00a0simple – DETACH YOURSELF. And if you miss to listen to their message – then you miss, you simply miss this life – and this\u00a0is\u00a0how you all go on missing – you remain on\u00a0the\u00a0surface – flaunting your intellectualism (mercury) – and\u00a0in\u00a0this futile process you miss – you simply miss to self-realize\u00a0that\u00a0\u2018intellectualism\u2019\u00a0is\u00a0very poor substitute to INTELLIGENCE.<\/p>

Be Intelligent and NOT intellectual.<\/p>

And\u00a0the\u00a0way towards intelligence goes through your HEART and NOT\u00a0the\u00a0HEAD.<\/p>

Get out\u00a0of\u00a0your\u00a0HEAD\u00a0and get into your HEART –\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0message\u00a0of\u00a0KETU,\u00a0that\u00a0is\u00a0the\u00a0whole\u00a0essence\u00a0of\u00a0Lord\u00a0Ganesha!<\/p>
