silence shared in words

Life is a Flux
I am here to shatter all illusions.
Yes,
it will irritate you,
it will annoy you
that's my way of functioning and working.
I will sabotage you from your very roots!
Unless you are totally destroyed as a mind,
there is no hope for you.
Discipline
has been
misinterpreted.
People have been telling others
to discipline their life,
to do this,
not to do that.
Thousands of shoulds and should-nots have been imposed on man,
and when a man lives with thousands of shoulds and should-nots
he cannot be creative.
He is a prisoner;
everywhere he will come across a wall.
The creative person
has to dissolve all shoulds and should-nots.
He needs freedom and space,
vast space.
He needs the whole sky and all the stars
only then
can his innermost spontaneity
start growing.
So remember, my meaning of discipline is not
that of any Ten Commandments.
I am not giving you any discipline;
I am simply giving you an insight how to remain learning
and never become knowledgeable.
Your discipline has to come from your very heart,
it has to be yours
and there is a great difference.
When somebody else gives you the discipline
it can never fit you;
it will be like wearing somebody else's clothes.
Either they will be too loose or too tight,
and you will always feel
a little bit silly in them.
Mohammed has given a discipline to the Mohammedans:
it may have been good for him
but it cannot be good for anybody else.
Buddha has given a discipline
to millions of Buddhists:
it may have been good for him
but it cannot be good for anybody else.
A discipline is an individual phenomenon;
whenever you borrow it
you start living
according to set principles,
dead principles.
life is never dead,
life is constantly changing
each moment.
Life is a flux.
