INDIA AWAITS...
India is not just geography or history. It is not only a nation, a country, a mere piece of land. It is something more : it is a metaphor, poetry, something invisible but very tangible. It is vibrating with certain energy fields which no other country can claim. For almost ten thousand years, thousands of people have reached to the ultimate explosion of consciousness. Their vibration is still alive, their impact is in the very air; you just need a certain perceptivity, a certain capacity to receive the invisible that surrounds this strange land.
It is strange, because it has renounced everything for a single search, the search for the truth. If you come here with a little bit of a meditative mind, you will come in contact with it. If you come here just as a tourist, you will miss it. You will see the ruins, the palaces, the Taj Mahal, the temples, but you will not see India - you will have passed through India without meeting it.
It is not coincidental that whenever anybody is thirsty for truth, suddenly he has become interested in India, suddenly he has started moving towards the East. And it is not only today, it is as old as there are records. And down the centuries, seekers have been coming to this land from all over the world. The country is poor, the country has nthing to offer, but to those who are sensitive, it is the richest place on the earth. But the richness is of the inner. This poor country can give you the greatest treasure that is possible for human beings.
THE DREAM OF THE BUDDHAS HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO REMIND YOU OF THAT WHICH HAS BEEN FORGOTTEN, TO AWAKEN THAT WHICH IS ASLEEP IN YOU.
