Be Tremendous

                      There is an extraordinary quality, light, and beauty in our brain.

                      We have to make them emerge in a natural way.

                      But what is necessary is quietness.

                      There has been a distinct change in you –

                      Deeper inward vitality, strength and clarity –

                      Keep it, let it function and give it an opportunity

                      To flow extensively and deeply.

                      Don’t, whatever happens, be smothered by circumstances,

                      By the family and by your own physical condition.

                      Eat properly, exercise and don’t become slack.

                      Having come to a certain state, keep going,

                      Don’t stay there – either go forward or you retrogress

                      You cannot be static.

                      You have ridden on the inward wave for so many months,

                      Withdrawn inward,

                      But now from that inward movement you must go out,

                      Meet more people and expand.

                      Have done a great deal of meditation and has been good.

                      Begin by being aware of every thought, feeling –

                      All day, the nerves and the brain

                      Then become quite, still;

                      This is what cannot be done through control

                      Then really begins meditation.

                      Do it with thoroughness.

                      Whatever happens don’t let the body shape the nature of the mind.

                      Be aware of the body, eat right, be by yourself

                      Don’t slip back and don’t be a slave to circumstances.

                      Be tremendous; be awake.
