hermit's chronicles

"I meditate 18 hours a day. What about you?" "I can fast an entire week. You would droop after just one day." "Every single day I meditate in the lotus position for three hours." "I have done four spiritual workshops of seven days each." "I chant my japa 1008 times every single day, at 4.30 every morning." "I have moved to Level 2 of the meditation group. He is still struggling with the first one." "Not everybody can sit with a straight back in padmaasan for two hours every day." "I gave up eating non-veg...like this (snap of a finger)!" "I have read every single book ever written on the Upanishads." "My problem is I don't know what to do with all the love pouring out of me." "I took him to my Guru...but if he wants to live in darkness, too bad!"

It is God who desires in you And it is God who becomes Desireless in you. This is total acceptance. It is God who is a passion in you And it is God who becomes Enlightenment in you. It is God who is anger in you And it is God who becomes Compassion in you. There is nothing to choose at all. - Osho

Three Seekers One Truth Their steadfast resolve Aided by A steady guiding star And then finally After a long, weary journey Stumbling upon The light of His presence. Sheer Grace!
