Somebody came today, who was
giving company to one of my healing clients. He
showed me a kind of electronic device, a little box,
and asked: "Swami Ji, can you feel the cosmic
energy that is in it?" Then he switched it on
with a power button. I answered "No." He
said "Oh, I thought maybe you will be
impressed because you feel wonderful energy." But I did not.
After the
man had gone my friend Thomas told that he had
recently seen an advertisement: apparently someone
created a pill for enlightenment. Eat it and you are
enlightened. This kind of thing nearly became part
of culture. We want to buy everything and think we
can have everything for money. Even enlightenment.
Especially the evening was nice today. Two friends
of Thomas and Iris came for dinner. After food one
of them played the tanpura and sang with it. He is a
great singer. Thomas also made us happy by playing
the rudraveena. Music is a wonderful medium for
concentration. Meditation can be more easy with it.
Music can bring you in that state of consciousness
in which you can focus on the inside and try to find
your inner joy.
