This is an extract from Papaji's Satsang on the 3rd of August 1993.
Papaji answers the question, "What is it that is preventing my mirror from aligning itself with yours?"
Papaji, "It is your desire for alignment. Don’t rise the thought of ‘I am prevented.’ This is also dust in the mirror which is always shining bright. Let there be no mirror in your hand at all, then you are free. Watch the activity of your mind and keep quiet."
Papaji tells the story of Bodhidharma meeting the Emperor of China. Bodhidharma pushed the Emperor into the water, and the Emperor obtained instant enlightenment.
