Sunrise is exactly the colour of sannyasThat's precisely the meaning of sannyas.The sunrise has knocked on the door.Don't go on hiding yourself under the blanketAny more, howsoever cosy it feelsAnd howsoever much your mind says,'Just turn over a little moreJust a little more, a few minutes.'Don't listen to the mind becauseThose few minutes will never endThe mind always goes on postponing.It wants you to remain asleep becauseMind can exist only when you are asleep.When you are awake, mind disappearsJust like dreams disappear when you are awake.Mind is a dream phenomenonMade of the same stuff as dreams are made of.So no more postponement -- wake up!A loyal heart is what is required.But a commitment to your own growth.A commitment, a decision that you will makeEvery possible effort to change yourself.And of course, a deeply loyal heartThe cunning mind cannot do it becauseThe cunning mind goes on changing every momentIt is not reliable; one moment it is one thingAnother moment it is another thing.It goes on changing its colours.You cannot make a solid foundationOn the basis of your mindBecause mind consists of sandAnd to make a sandcastle is dangerous,It is going to collapse sooner or later.You may be destroyed when it collapsesBecause you will be living in it.Never live in a house made by the mind.Can become the right foundation.It is like a rock, unchanging.So let your sannyas be a decisionOf the heart, not of the mind.In people who become convinced intellectuallyThat what I am saying is right.They are not the right people.Tomorrow they may be unconvinced again.Who come to me through the heart.Who have a conviction of the heartWho are in a deep love affair.It has nothing to do with intellectuality.It is closer to love than to logicThen nothing can prevent it.Then it goes on risking everything.It can pass through all kinds of fireAnd it will come out of all fires purified,More glorious, more victorious.Each fire makes it more and more pureA new dimension, a new quality.But that is the only way to purify the gold.赞赏译者
