”You have already tried running after the objects of senses, and you have tasted them very well, for millions of years. Those who are tired of tasting come to satsang to find something higher, which is peace, love, beauty, and eternal rest. So simple, just to keep quiet. Do not think. Don't make any effort. This is the right guidance. You are guided by your mind and you are guided by your senses. So this time refuse the mind: ‘I don't listen to you.’ That's all you have to do.“
This satsang from the 11th of May 1993 includes the following interactions:
*JAYANT: "I understand to sit by myself and keep quiet. Fear of death."
Papaji: "If you are not quiet you are afraid of death."
*KESHAP: "Is there anything you or me can do to make enlightenment quicker? Or anything that stop it from coming?"
Papaji: "Enlightenment is quicker than you! You cannot stop it, it’s already there. Extend your hands."
*RAMANI: "Every moment of my life is a birthday. You are my real father."
Papaji: "You get birthday from parent and birthday from the sadguru."
*BODHI ARPITAM. Papaji gives him a new name: Sundaram.
Papaji asks him, "How did you see this beauty?" Sundaram replies, "By being here."
*TOSH: Zen talk.
Papaji tells the story of a Chinese emperor who falls into a river and gets enlightened. Papaji speaks about meeting a Zen teacher in Casablanca.
