'What must I do?' is Never a Valid Question - 26th Oct. 2015

I think it is this life. You can make me trees, like 'Oh, I am resisting life.' It is not possible. Just like saying—I used to say very often over there—just like saying a small twig is trying to control the flow of the river. One twig in the entire river is moving along, so small and this prickless thing, and it says, 'How do I control the flow of the stream? It's too much, so fast. Where I need to go down?' You only do, only the thoughts you have. Good, good thing. This would be the big thoughts we give suspended over the river, and thinking, 'Oh, because today I'm more towards the left, so the river is more left.' But how do we resist? Only through thought. Only, only, only specifically through believing. No, you can't resist life. If the plan was to sit on the sofa, I can not so much as I can, I will, I'll show you. Why not? Because it doesn't exist. So the twig doesn't exist. What are we talking about? That imaginary twig thinking you can do some controlling of the river. And the funny thing that we talked about every day: 'What must I do?' You want to go out or destroy to see this? To see this, to be you, is then to withdraw the belief from this that is false. Because to stop also means that I did have the power to do something.

The only thinking... this experiment came to me, really crazy. This person on the weekend, on the plane somewhere, this experiment came to me and I said, 'Okay, I will imagine breathing deeply, but it would actually have been I'll be very fast.' I couldn't do it. Just imagine breathing deeply and breathe very fast at the same time. It doesn't happen. Why? Motivation should be a separate faculty from this body moving here. Yes, yes. But for the one gone completely beyond this is to see it doesn't happen. What does it mean really? That all of our doing is being in just this imagining.

Sorry, you know what doing it... exactly. That's what I'm saying. That just is doing which is happening here. This is the imagined one that takes hold of him, said, decided.

So then, 'What to do?' Don't like this. So, 'How do I stop that?' is also another variant of just 'What to do? What to do?' Yes, as I see what you say in Satsang, I am completely fine. And say I go out, 'What to do?' You pick up the 'I'. Doing is the most popular way of picking up the 'I'. Just look at how this happens. See, nobody here can get this. Nobody wants to be present. Nobody here. Then you can say, 'Yes, but I find...' Okay, a few of you will actually say this in sincerity: 'It is so, but I find Being is here. I find Consciousness is here. What must Consciousness do?' That's the problem. Or God is doing this, what?

So even in this Satsang, we can pick up the 'I'. 'Now I am God, so tell me what God should do.' That is more ludicrous. This is the one that is running all of this show, that is making in evolution, gravitation, electricity, light, sound—billions and millions of processes will happen like this. Does it need to come here and ask, 'What should I do next?' So truly, there is no concept of 'What do I do next?' Oh, my Being, listen. Because the person doesn't exist, or because God doesn't need help. And who will help God? Much here, a twig, magnetic super God part of God? Now as we see this, how many others see this? And what happened to see this, to be you? This is one another trick of the mind, that intellectually I understand and then I say, 'Okay, what is intellectually understood?' Who liked that? With what you see, and tell me in this room without painting class, look.
