Life, Death & Hormonal Hijack

Is there any life after death, and what’s the right age for Sanyas?

The word Sanyas, which means to be in the path of the divine. When is the right age? I think that should be the first thing that you do in your life. When is the right age to get married? That is subject to social situations, and above all, these thoughts come to you because until you are 10, 11, 12, 13 also maybe, you are okay. After that, suddenly this chemical cocktail of hormones got into your system. Suddenly everybody looks different.

Once it so happened, I went to a party and when he came out of the party, he told his wife, “You know, alcohol makes you look so beautiful.” The wife said, “Well, I didn’t have a drop.” “No, not you, me.” A little bit of hormone entered your system and suddenly everything started looking different. After this hormone leaves your system, then you look back at your life and say, “Did I do all those things?” Before they came also, it looked like that. After it’s gone also, it looked like that. That in-between period when you’re being spiked from inside, suddenly everything looks different.

Very few human beings are capable of keeping this spiking aside and look at life the way it is and then enjoy the spiking only to the extent it’s needed. All others are driven by it. They shape their lives around it. Sanyas means just this: that you are not shaping your life around a temporary influence of chemicals on your system. It’s a little bit of inebriation, you know? Suddenly everything looks different.

When should I go beyond these things? Sanyas is not a process of suppression or denial. It’s a process of transcendence. When should you transcend? As quickly as possible. Yes? When should you suppress? Never. Suppression is not a solution. Transcendence is a solution. Transcendence is not only a solution. It is way beyond that. It is beyond the problem. Whenever we are trapped in our limitations, somewhere we start thinking, this limitation is the only reality. This limitation is not the only reality.

You remember a time when there was no sexuality and there was no talk about going beyond as a child. Isn’t it so? Yes. This is an in-between phase. Nature … don’t believe all the funny things that happen within you and all the romantic thoughts that go on in your head. Nature just wants to reproduce. If it doesn’t drive you, you wouldn’t do it. All the pain involved in delivering a child, but still we are overpopulated. That wouldn’t happen if there wasn’t enough drive from inside. You’re spiked from inside, sabotaged from inside. Once your hormones hijacked your intelligence, after that wherever you look, you see only that. It takes a certain level of awareness and capability to look beyond that.

This is not a denial, but being able to see beyond that … Once you see beyond that, you understand the limitations of what this is. What is limited should be handled in limited way. You don’t have to invest your whole life in it. Yes, a small aspect of your life should only get that much attention. If that spreads through your consciousness, then that will become a crippling life. Sanyas is a realization of this and when you have the ability to transcend, yes.

So now you also want to know what happens after that? I think some things you know best only by experience. Just like marriage. You know it only best by experience. Somebody else tells you a million things. It’s not true, isn’t it? It’s your experience. This has always been the thing. This has always been the line that people have been taking.

If anybody up here’s in front of you who happens to be a guru or claims to be one, immediately the first thing you ask is, “What is life? What is death?” What you’re asking is … I want you to understand. Decipher your question down a little more and see what is it that you’re asking. You are asking, “What is the nature of my life?” Isn’t it so? When you ask, “What is death? Where will I go?” you want to know, “What is the nature of this? What will happen beyond this body?” You are asking, “Who am I?” I am asking, “Why are you asking me?”

If you go on the street and ask somebody, “Who are you?” … all right. If you go on the street and ask, “Who am I?” … you get instantly arrested. This happened in the Cincinnati airport. People were standing in a queue to check in at the check-in counter. One man comes, jumps the whole line and goes straight to the lady behind the counter. She says, “Sir, please go stand in the line. Everybody is in the line.” He says, “No, no, no, I’m in a hurry. Please check me in.” She says, “Everybody is in a hurry. Please stand in the line.” Then he raised his voice and said, “Do you know who I am?” That lady promptly picked up the microphone and she said, “There is a man here who doesn’t know who he is. Can somebody help him?”

You are alive right now. If you want to know what this is, this is where you should look, not somewhere else. Unfortunately, you are with me. If you were with the right kind of spiritual people, they would immediately have told you. You are all-parading?. You are forever. You are this. You are God’s embodiment.” Do you want to hear this bull from me? They would have told you all these things.

Now, don’t think I’m confusing you because I don’t have to make such effort. You’re already confused. Do I have to make any effort in that direction? I don’t have to make any direction. You’re totally confused, isn’t it? Confusion is a better state than stupid conclusions. Yes? Confusion is a little better state than idiotic conclusions that you have made. Conclusion means death. Confusion means still a possibility. Confusion means still a possibility. You’re still looking. Conclusion is death. You’re finished. You’re a written off case. “I am done” You’re finished.

So what happens death? We’ll find out in some time. Right now, what’s happening now? If you eat a banana, banana becomes a human being. Something phenomenal is happening now, isn’t it? Let’s find out what’s happening now. There is something inside here which can make a piece of bread into a human being. We must find out what’s happening now. If you experience what’s happening now beyond the physicality of who you are, even after the body is done, still you know what’s happening. If you’re unable to know it now, how will you know what’s after death?

If you were looking for spirituality for solace or for entertainment, you just came to the wrong place. I’m not an entertainer, nor am I a solace peddler. If you are seeking a solution, then we can beat out a path for you to walk. Not an answer. Do you understand? I have no answers for any damn questions you ask. If the question is true, if the question is genuine, if the pain of ignorance is tearing you apart, if the pain of not knowing is truly bothering you, then I can give you a method. I can give you a way to find a solution but I have no answers because all answers are just stories that will either solace you or entertain you.
