Transmission of a Trigger Point
You have been interviewed on a daily basis by the world media for over a month.
What role does the media have in your vision?
Can somebody's life be changed by seeing you once on a television screen?
It is possible.
Life functions very mysteriously.
Just seeing a picture,
reading a certain statement,
seeing my face on the television,
may prove
the triggering point.
There are millions of people in the world
who are just
on the borderline.
A little push
or a little pull
and they will have crossed the line.
It is simply
a matter
of your heart
being touched.
It can be touched by anything,
just my voice
or just the gesture of my hand.
It is unpredictable because
what is going to happen
to an individual's heart,
what is going to touch it,
is difficult to say.
Perhaps my silence
the pause
that always happens between
two sentences,
or sometimes even in the middle of a sentence
may stir something
which is already there.
Just a little push,
a little pull,
and the person
will never be the same again.
And whatever he has tasted in that moment
will grow,
becoming
a deep longing
to come closer to me,
to know more about me,
to know more about the work that is happening,
to know more about people
who are around me.
And these are the ways a person slowly
enters into the
energy field I am creating.
Talking to the world media is not
just publicity.
I have had enough of it.
It is in fact using new methods
of reaching people's hearts
So it does not matter what they ask,
it does not matter what I answer.
What matters is that people will be seeing my hands, my eyes,
and they are bound to be
affected
this way or that.
Either they may fall into a certain
love
or they may start from that very moment to hate me.
But
whatever happens, hate or love,
I have touched their heart.
To change their hate into love is not difficult.
The most difficult thing was to reach to their heart,
which has happened.
Those who are in love will be looking
for books, tapes, videos,
and those who are in hate, they will also be looking for the same things.
And once a man becomes emotionally
connected with me
as a friend, as an enemy
he is
part of my people.
The enemies also
are part of me and my work.
Sometimes they do more work than the friends,
because they are continuously talking against me.
Listening to them, many people start thinking, "Why are you so disturbed?
If you are against, forget about the man."
But they cannot forget me either.
And the people to whom they are talking about me
will become interested,
just as a curiosity in the beginning,
but to change
curiosity into a longing,
a desire,
a search,
is not difficult.
It happens almost automatically.
