	Gallery 1 A Presence, A Silence
	One-line abstracts / of science news reports / to flummox your mind / and generate a chaotic flux / of yearning / in your non-existent soul. / And from amidst that chaos / emerge a few beautiful sutras / elucidating the science of the soul. / Yes, the soul does exist, / and only it exists! / That is the whole point.

	1.   The master is a presence, a silence. Even in his words, he is trying to help you to move towards the wordless.    2.   Relax, let go.  Be dead, so that you can feel the contrast between the body and consciousness.    3.   The body is only a temporary house.  In the morning we have to go.  But consciousness is the eternal pilgrim, in a journey without any beginning and without any end.    4.   A man is utterly useless, his life has no meaning, his love is futile, if he himself is not aware who is residing in.   5.   Of course, the body is not you, nor the mind; there is something else which is witnessing both the mind and the body.   6.   The master, in the very first encounter, knows whether you can be a vehicle, whether you can be a messenger, whether you can become a message yourself — is there the potentiality or not?

	To be a buddha is everybody's right. If you don't claim it, it is only your fault. Recognize it and live it and you will be suddenly surprised that everything in your life is changing — just from the recognition that your inner being is already a buddha, already awakened. But you have not taken care.  The English word `ignorance' is beautiful, but not in the sense that it is usually understood. To me it means ignoring your buddhahood. That is ignorance, the only ignorance. Ignoring your buddhahood — the only ignorance; knowing your buddhahood — the only knowledge.                                                                                                          - Osho
