Don’t Let Yourself Be Upset by the Sutra, rather Upset the Sutra Yourself

CHAPTER 

1 August 1979 pm in Chuang Tzu Auditorium

Prem Birgitta. Prem means love; birgitta means strength, power, energy.
Love makes you strong, makes you powerful, because love transforms your possibilities into
actualities. It transforms the seed into a sprout, it transforms the potential into the real. Without
love one is empty, with love one is overflowing. Without love one is a beggar, with love one is an
emperor.

Love more and more, and love without any expectations. With expectations love cannot soar high.
Love without conditions. With conditions love is poisoned. Love for the sheer joy of loving, then love
becomes the bridge between you and God.

And birgitta has another meaning also – that is bridge. When love energy is overflowing, you are
bridged to God. There is no other way to be bridged.

Anand Alwin. Anand means bliss; alwin means a friend.

Bliss is the friend. It is only through bliss that one arrives home. It is by being blissful that we start
feeling the presence of God in existence.

Ordinarily people think they will be blissful when they have found God... that is not true, because
unless you are blissful you cannot find God. Certainly you will be immensely blissful when you have
found God, but that is the end of the story; and first we have to think of the beginning, not of the end.
One has to learn to be blissful for God to arrive. It is only through the blissful state of consciousness
that God can penetrate us.

Misery is your enemy; bliss is your friend – and remember it... don’t become too associated with
misery. Don’t befriend misery, disconnect yourself with misery. Never get identified with anything that brings misery, and drown yourself each moment more and more in bliss. Be drunk with bliss,
be a drunkard, and in bliss you will find the greatest friend.
