CHAPTER 2. THE MAN OF TAO The astrologer asked one more question, saying, ”It seems impolite to ask, but you have created the desire and the urge. Are you a human being? If you are not an emperor, a chakravartin, if you are not a DEVA from paradise, are you a human being?” And Buddha said, ”No, I am nobody. I don’t belong to any form, to any name.” The astrologer said, ”You have disturbed me even more now. What do you mean?” This is what Buddha meant: AND THE GREATEST MAN IS NOBODY. You can be somebody, but you cannot be the greatest. There is always someone greater somewhere in the world. And who is somebody? You are the measure. You say that this man is great – but who is the measure? You. The spoon is the measure of the ocean. You say, ”This man is great.” You say, and many like you say, ”This man is great” – and he becomes great because of you! No. In this world, whoever is somebody cannot be the greatest, because the ocean cannot be measured by spoons. And you are all teaspoons measuring the ocean. No, it is not possible. So the really greatest will be nobody amongst you. What does it mean when Chuang Tzu says, ”The greatest will be nobody”? It means: it will be immeasurable. You cannot measure, you cannot label, you cannot categorize, you cannot say, ”Who is this?” He simply escapes measurement. He simply goes beyond and beyond and beyond and the teaspoon falls to the ground. Enough for today. The Empty Boat 46 Osho
