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
