most impossible thing in the world: to die on the cross with a prayer for thosewho are killing you.But this was love. Only the feminine mind can understand it. They were close tohim.When Jesus revived, resurrected, after the third day, he tried to approach hismale disciples. They could not see him because they had settled the fact that hewas dead, and you see only things which you expect to see. If you don't expect,you don't see.Your eyes are very choosy. If you are waiting for a friend, then even in a crowdyou can see him. But if you are not waiting for him, if you have completelyforgotten about him, then when he comes and knocks on the door, for a momentyou are puzzled: who is he?They had settled the fact that Jesus was dead, so when Jesus came across theirpath they could not recognize him, they could not see him. It is even said that hewalked for miles with two disciples while they talked about Jesus' death. Theywere very miserable because of it -- and Jesus was walking with them, they weretalking to him! But they could not recognize him.Only love can recognize, even after death -- because love recognized when youwere alive. For love, death and life are irrelevant.Jesus was recognized first by Mary Magdalen, a prostitute. She went running tothe male disciples who were holding a great conference: what to do? how tospread the word to the whole world? how to create the church? When they wereplanning for the future, she came running and said, "What are you doing? Jesusis alive! "They laughed. They said, "Mad woman, you must have imagined it" -- man'smind always thinks that such things are imaginations. They started talking toeach other: "That poor woman, Mary Magdalen. She has gone mad. Jesus'crucifixion has been such a shock to her." They felt pity on her.She insisted, "Don't feel pity on me. Jesus IS resurrected!"They laughed and they said, "We understand. You need rest, you are tooshocked by the fact that he is dead. It is your imagination."Around Buddha, around Krishna, around Jesus, around Mahavir, a greatnumber of women have always been there. They were the first-comers, they werethe first disciples. It is natural.So don't be surprised. Two thousand or two million years... the human mind willremain the same. Humanity as a whole remains the same; the revolution isindividual. You can be transformed as an individual. Then you go beyond thecrowd.But don't be worried about such things. This question is from Chaitanya Sagar.He's always worried about such things. I never answer him, but he's alwaysworried: worried about others, worried about the world, worried about theorganization, worried about the ashram, worried about my disciples, worriedCome Follow To You Vol 1Osho
about me -- never worried about himself. All these worries won't help. Time isshort, life is very short. Use it.Just the other night I was reading a play by Samuel Beckett: a small book, thesmallest possible in the world -- a short play. The name of the play is BREATH.The length of the whole play is only thirty seconds... thirty seconds. There is noactor in it, no dialogue. Just a stage.The curtain opens. Many things are lying around. Rubbish -- just as if somebodyhas left the house in a hurry. All sorts of things are jumbled, with no order. Just adisorder -- rubbish. And from the background, a sigh is heard of a small child,just born. Then, after thirty seconds, the gasp of an old man who has died. This isall -- but this is all life is. Thirty seconds: a sigh and a gasp. The first effort toinhale and the last effort to cling to the breathing... and everything is gone.Life is short, not even thirty seconds. Use it. Use it as an opportunity to grow, useit as an opportunity to be, and don't be worried about other things; that is allrubbish. Only this is true: the sigh and the gasp, and all else is just rubbish.Forget about it -- what do you have to do about it?You should not be concerned with whether the world has changed or not. Theworld is the same, it has to be the same. Only you can be different; the world willnever be different. When you become aware, conscious, you transcend the world.Question 5WHAT DOES CHRIST REALLY MEAN WHEN HE SAYS, "COME FOLLOWME"Exactly what he says: "Come follow me."Question 6TO FOLLOW JESUS A DEEP TRUST, SURRENDER AND LOVE IS NEEDEDBUT TODAY A DEEP SKEPTICISM IS PREVALENT ALL OVER THE WORLD.WHAT IS THE WAY?This is from Swami Yoga Chinmaya. Think about yourself. Is deep skepticismwithin you? That's the question to be asked. A deep skepticism is prevalent allover the world: who are you to be worried about the whole world? This is a wayto escape the real problem. Skepticism is deep within, the worm of doubt is therein your heart, but you project it; you see it on the whole world's screen."The world is skeptical -- what is the way out?" Now you are transferring theproblem. Look within yourself. If there is doubt, then find it out. Then somethingcan be done. The world won't listen to you, and there is no need, because if theyare happy in their skepticism they have the right to be happy in their skepticism.Who are you?Come Follow To You Vol 1Osho
