#poetry Don’t try to understand life. Don’t try to understand love. Move into love. Then you will know—and that knowing will come out of your experiencing. That knowing will never destroy the mystery: the more you know, the more you know that much remains to be known. And that is the beauty of life—and the beauty of love. Love is mystery, and the more you know it, the more you are willing to be drowned in it. I am drowned in love. I am drowned in my own love. My love is such that it is ready to suffer, it is ready to cry, it is ready to laugh, it is ready to relish each and every moment of life. I am not saying that you should not be cautious. It is not a question of being cautious or not cautious. It is a question of being totally aware in each moment—whatever the moment demands. If the moment demands that I should be cautious, I should be cautious. If the moment demands that I should be daring, I should be daring. But it is my awareness that will decide and not my mind. My mind will not decide; my awareness will decide. And if my awareness decides, then whatsoever my decision, it will be right. If I decide out of mind, then I am bound to be in trouble. This is what has happened to the world. People have decided out of the mind and they have created a world that is in deep trouble. The individual cannot be at ease; the society cannot be at ease; the whole world cannot be at ease. Everybody is in deep anxiety, in deep trouble. And this is so because you have decided out of the mind. You have decided to be cautious, and caution has become your philosophy. It is not a matter of caution and no caution; it is a matter of being aware and not being aware. When you are very much aware, then you will move with the moment. Then you will not be in any problem. Life is not a problem to be solved, but a mystery to be lived and loved. Solving problems is for idiots, for those who don’t have any intelligence. “I am not a problem” “I don’t have to solve myself” “I have to allow myself to be free of problems.” By allowing yourself to be free of problems, you have become intelligent. By allowing yourself to be free of problems, you have become aware. By becoming aware, you have become intelligent. So what is the difference? The difference is very simple: in awareness, you do not know anything; in intelligence, you do not know anything. But in intelligence, you are enough. In awareness, you are not enough; you are too much. Something is missing in you. So if you are intelligent, what is missing in you? You are whole, you are complete. If you are aware, you are complete, but something is missing. What is that? The Witness. This is where I find the Witness to be very important, because the Witness is what you are. When you are aware of something, you are complete, but when you are aware of the awareness, you are with the Witness. This is why we say in Non-Duality, you are the Witness. When you are aware of the awareness, you are complete, you are the Witness, you are God, you are the Absolute, you are the One, you are the Tao, you are the Self, you are the I AM, you are the Absolute. You are not the observer, who is watching the mind. That is not you. The observer is also a false identity, it is an object in the mind. It is easy to mistake the observer for the Witness. But the Witness is the awareness of the observer. The observer is not the Witness. When you are aware of the observer, you are the Witness. The witness is not aware of the observer. The observer is aware of the witness. When you are aware of the witness, you are the observer. But when you are aware of both the witness and the observer, you are neither. The observer is a thought in the mind, the witness is being itself. The observer and the witness are two distinct aspects of the same thing. The observer is the seer and the witness is the seen. Yet it is the same seer who sees himself when he witnesses. Thus you are the observer, the witness and the seen. You are the seer, the seen and the sight. You are the perceiver, the perceived and the perception. You are the knower, the known and the knowledge. This is the secret of the triad.
