A fool is one who goes on
trusting; a fool is one who goes on trusting against all his
experience. You deceive him, and he trusts you; and you deceive
him again, and he trusts you; and you decieve him again and he
trusts you. Then you will say that he is a fool, he does not
learn. His trust is tremendous; his trust is so pure that nobody
can corrupt it.
Be a fool in the Taoist sense, in the Zen sense. Don't try to
create a wall of knowledge around you. Whatsoever experience
comes to you, let it happen, and then go on dropping it. Go on
cleaning your mind continuously; go on dying to the past so you
remain in the present, here-now, as if just born, just a babe.
In the beginning it is going to be very difficult. The world
will start taking advantage of you...let them. They are poor
fellows. Even if you are cheated and deceived and robbed, let it
happen, because that which is really yours cannot be robbed from
you, that which is really yours nobody can steal from you.
And each time you don't allow situations to corrupt you, that
opportunity will become an integration inside. Your soul will
become more crystallized.
May all beings I meet today experience clarity and nonjudgment
from my presence...
Hugs & Love,
