Be Open, And Let Things Happen
Beloved Bhakti,
Love. When you are with me be completely at ease and
relaxed; that is, be totally yourself.
If you feel like crying then cry.
If you feel like weeping then weep.
But just be uninterruptedly aware.
Do not think about what you are doing - just be the doing
and when your senses are shaken like leaves in the wind -
then enter this shaking.
Because, only in such situations the being is revealed.
If a mood against someone or for someone arises do not
place it on the person in question but remain centered in
yourself and you will know a transcendence which is not
of this world at all.

"Today the path to total dictatorship in the United States can be
laid by strictly legal means, unseen and unheard by the Congress,
the President, or the people...Outwardly we have a constitutional
government.
We have operating within our government and political system,
another body representing another form of government, a
bureaucratic elite which believes our Constitution is outmoded
and is sure that it is the winning side...
All the strange developments in foreign policy agreements may be
traced to this group who are going to make us over to suit their
pleasure...
This political action group has its own local political support
organizations, its own pressure groups, its own vested interests,
its foothold within our government."
