After discourse Osho leads No-Mind Meditation.
- The sutras
- Gosetsu after becoming a monk under Ma Tzu, came to Sekito and said, "If you settle this with one word, I will stay here. If not, I will leave."
- Sekito, knowing that this man had promise, made a gesture, but Gosetsu did not get it. So Gosetsu took his leave and made for the gate, when Sekito called to him "Teacher!"
- Gosetsu turned around, and Sekito said, "From birth to old age, it is only the fellow there and nothing else -- don't look anywhere further."
- At this, Gosetsu was greatly enlightened. He stepped on his stick to break it and stayed there.
- Once, Sekito said to his assembled monks, "Even if language is used, it is irrelevant."
- Hearing this, Yakusan said, "Even if language is not used, it is irrelevant."
- Sekito said, "Here, even a needle cannot get through."
- Yakusan said, "Here, it is like planting a flower on a rock."
- Sekito indicated his approval of what Yakusan said.
- Question 1
- God is a fiction of the mind, an invention of religious politicians. But my mind wants fictions, hopes, future. Is this natural?
- Question 2
- Our beloved master, Hubert Benoit suggests that even those people who are sufficiently intellectually evolved not to believe in a personal god, still retain the concept, although in different terms.
- He says, "They imagine their satori and themselves after their satori, and that is their personal god -- a coercive idol, disquietening, implacable. They must realize themselves, they must liberate themselves. They are terrified at the thought of not being able to get there, and they are elated by any inner phenomenon which gives them hope."
- Beloved master, would you agree that there is a danger of this happening to meditators?
