Silence communicated with words
The way I speak
it’s a little odd.
No speakers in the world
does not speak like me
technically it is wrong;
takes almost double the time!
but those speakers
have another purpose
my goal is completely
different from theirs.
They talk because
they are prepared for it;
they simply repeat
something that they did before.
Secondly,
they speak
to impose on a certain ideology,
a certain idea to you.
Third, speaking to them is art
they continue to process it.
As far as I am concerned,
I’m not
what they call
speakers or speakers.
For me this is not art or technique;
technically I get worse every day!
But our goals are quite different.
I do not want to
I’m impressing you
to abuse you.
I do not talk about
any purpose
to be achieved by persuading you.
I do not speak to turn you into a Christian, Hindu or Muhammadan,
in religion or infidelity
these are not my preoccupations.
My speech is in fact
one of my ways of meditation.
Never talk is used this way:
I do not speak to give you a message,
but to stop the activity of the mind.
I do not speak
nothing
prepared
Nor do I know
what will be the word that will come after;
so I never make a mistake.
The mistake is to make someone prepare for it.
I never forget something because someone forgets
if he tried to remember it.
So I speak with a freedom
with which perhaps no one has ever spoken.
I do not care if I am consistent,
because this is not the goal.
He who will convince you
and manipulate you through
his speech
it must be consistent,
should be logical,
should be reasonable,
to overcome your cause.
He wants to rule through words.
One of Dale Carnegie’s most famous books has to do
with
speaking
and impact on people
like art
he has been the second to sell only after the Sacred Scripture
but I would fail in his examinations.
He led
a course in America
to teach missionaries and professors
and to teach orators. I would fail at all points.
First, I have no reason to turn you;
I have no desire whatsoever to impress you.
I do not remember what I said yesterday,
so I can not
to get tired of being consistent – this would be a huge concern.
I can easily contradict myself,
because I’m not trying
to have
communication
with the intellectual,
reasonable of your mind.
My goal is so special
how much I use
words
just to create
silence space.
Words are not important
so I can say whatever is contradictory,
anything absurd, anything unrelated,
because my goal is
just create spaces.
The words are secondary;
the silences between these words are primary.
This is simply a way to give you an idea of what meditation is.
And once you realize that this is possible for you,
you will have traveled far away
in the direction of your very being.
Most people in the world think that it is not possible for the mind to be silent.
Because they think it is not possible, they do not even try it.
How to make people try meditation
it was
My main reason for speaking,
so I can continue to speak forever
no matter what I’m saying.
What matters
is to give you some opportunities
stay silent,
which is difficult for you
you reach it yourself early.
I can not force you to remain silent,
but can create a way by which
you will tend to be silent yourself.
I speak in the middle of the sentence,
when you wait for another word to come,
nothing comes
but a space of silence.
And your mind
waiting to hear,
ready for something in progress,
and does not want to lose it
naturally becomes silent.
What can a desperate mind do?
If you knew it before
in which point I would be silent,
if you would be warned
that in this and that point I will be silent,
then you would come to think
you could not be silent.
Then you know: “This is the moment when he will be silent,
now I can do a little
self-indulgence. “
But since she comes altogether
unexpected ….
nor I myself know why I stop at certain moments.
Any such thing,
in any orator of the world,
would be punished,
because an orator
which stops occasionally
shows that
is not well prepared,
who has not done homework.
Shows that his memory
is not reliable,
shows
that sometimes he can not find,
which word to use.
But since
Its not
oratory,
I do not fret over people who will condemn me
I’m interested in you.
And not only here,
but far away …
anywhere in the world
when people will hear this video
or audio,
they will achieve the same
silence.
My success is not
convince you,
my success is to give you a real taste
so that you may believe
that meditation is not fiction,
that the state of mind-mind
it’s not just one
philosophical ideas,
that it is reality;
that you can achieve it and that it does not want any particular
in qualification
