Playing with Words

I just love to play with words. Honestly, everything we are doing is all part of a game; therefore, one should have fun doing everything! Today, I am working with the word "information". To me, information really means "inside formation". Whatever we see, hear, feel, taste will be recorded by our heart so it is very important to pay attention to how we are forming our inside! Let us take MMA as an example. You are watching two fighters in the ring beating up one another. Now it will make you want to fight because it is forming your subconscious to want to fight..to be violent towards a human being. You know it is not right because your eyes see something on television which "tells lies to your vision". Lol. You all know who I got this from. But anyway, you are being lying to but your eyes caught a lie and your eyes direct you towards living a lie. I believe the people who are creating channels know how to tap into your heart. These people are more dangerous than any gangsters and mafias combined. So beware of what kind of "information", your senses are gathering.

No Words for Truth

No Words for Truth

“Sages always repent after speaking, for they feel they could not say what they wanted to say; and they have said what should not have ben said.  For what they tried to convey the listener could not follow, and what he understood had no meaning.”

“And even if you speak, the regret becomes greater, for by the time your words reach the listener their meaning becomes quite different.  Everything that you said gets completely changed – you gave a diamond; it became a stone.” – Osho “The True Name” pg. 139

Sages are bound to be misunderstood.  The truth is shared through silence.  Truth is felt through the heart and cannot be adequately expressed with words.

Fake Martial Artists Turn Back

Fake Martial Artists Turn Back – 2/19/15

“When you have traveled a number of miles in mountainous terrain and someone says your light points in the wrong direction, you feel a terrible blow.  It means you have to retrace your steps and go back all the way you came.  Your ego protests and says, “Go a little further, don’t give up.  Who knows, this woman may be wrong!  She may be stupid, or mad, or lying, or trying to mislead you!”

“To turn back is a blow to the ego.  You wonder, “Could I have been wrong all this time?”  Therefore it is easier to teach children than to teach older people.  If they have already walked sixty or seventy miles can they admit to being wrong all that time?  The child never resists, because the child has yet not walked.  He will go wherever you take him.  An old man never will.  He will insist that the path he has followed is correct – because his ego depends on it.” – Osho “The True Name” pg. 111

I see that the above quote applies to all those who are still living in a fantasy in the Martial Arts.  A lot of people who practice Martial Arts and Combat Sport tend to forget all about the real world.  They forget all about the guns, about the police, about the law, about death, about medical bills, about weapons, about police corruption, about gangs, about mafias, about multiple assailants, about retaliation, etc. 

They spend so much time on wrestling mats, that they forget that out there in the real world, people are not walking or driving on wrestling mats!  They are so focused and concerned about following the rules of their sport that they forget about the spontaneity of life and how there are no rules.  They completely forget about how fragile our lives are and how easily we can be murdered or killed.  They somehow believe they are superhuman because they have figured out how to deliver powerful kicks and punches.  

They somehow believe that they are invincible because they have learned a few self-defense techniques.  They win a few matches and now they think they are on top of the world, the best in the world, unbeatable.  They are all living in a fantasy but they don’t’ want to admit it because it will hurt their ego, their ego depends on this false sense of reality.  They might have spent their whole lives training to be the best, and they don’t want to admit to themselves that they are no different than everybody else around them, they are equal to the next person, they are nobody special. 

They do not want to face up to reality and admit that Martial Arts training is primarily for bettering your health, not for fighting.  They want to somehow believe that they are indestructible when they are not.  They will go around breaking boards, breaking bricks, breaking trees, breaking bats, beating up people for medals, all to try to convince themselves that they possess a special skill and talent, all to try to convince themselves and the people around them that they are special.  But the reality is that they are nobody special. 

They may be proficient in “fighting” but it is nothing special, no different than being proficient in playing basketball.  All their fighting games, are just that, games, nothing more.  Boxing, wrestling, cage fighting, basketball, football, tennis, baseball, track and field, nothing is better than the other, they are all games.  Some games are more dangerous than others, but either way, they are all just games, none of it deals with reality.  They are afraid to admit this because it will bring too much pain.  Pain in knowing that all these years they have been training has all been for nothing, even after all this training, they are still nobody special, they are still unimportant, they are still human, they can still die just as easily as the next person who has not trained for a single day in his life.  Seeing this reality brings sadness and depression to the fake Martial Artist.

True Disciple

True Disciple – 2/19/15

“Bodhidharma, the Buddhist master, went to China.  He sat facing a wall and said, “I will only turn my face when the true disciple comes.  Why should I talk to anyone else?  It is as useless as talking to the walls!” – Osho “The True Name” pg. 100

“As long as there is an I am or I am the judge, you cannot be the disciple; you cannot hear the Sifu’s words.”  Osho “The True Name” pg. 101 “Guru” has been replaced with “Sifu.”

Only true disciples can learn from a Sifu.  A special connection must be established, a surrendering must occur.  This is not the average customer/merchant relationship where the customer is always right.  The Sifu is not a merchant here to be evaluated by the customer.  It is like the difference between prostitution and love.  Prostitution is not love and love is not prostitution.  Love is a special relationship, a special connection; this is like the relationship between Sifu and disciple.  Prostitution is like what we know as the commercialized Martial Art industry, where the teachings of the Martial Arts has been corrupted and exploited for profit.  

A True Student

A True Student – Osho “The True Name” Pg. 98. 

The word “Guru” has been replaced with “Sifu.”

The word “Sikh” has been replaced with “Student.”

The word “turban” has been replace with “FMK Uniform.”

“It is very difficult to listen to even one teaching of the Sifu since you cannot hear anything with your present being.  It requires a complete transformation of your life.  For the Sifu’s teachings you have to be eager and look up towards him, you have to learn the art of being quiet and serene in his presence.  You must learn to leave your head behind at home, because if you bring it along with you, you will not be able to hear.  Even if the Sifu teaches, your head will draw different meanings.  You will be told one thing, you will hear another.  Having come empty-handed, you will leave empty-handed.”

“The Sifu’s teachings cannot be learned through the head, but heard through the heart.  He has to be listened to with total faith.  When the Sifu teaches, if you are thinking he is right or he is wrong, you are still sitting in the classroom and not yet in a gathering of seekers.”

“Coming to the Sifu means: I am tired of judging right and wrong.  Now I can judge no more.  It means: I am tired of thinking, I can think no more.  It means: I am sick and tired of myself and I want to give myself up.  In short, this is what is called faith.”

“You come to the Sifu only when you are completely tired of yourself.  If you still think yourself to be very intelligent, there is no point in coming to the Sifu because you are still your own Sifu.  You still need to wander a bit more, bear more hardships, incur more pain through doubts and indecisions.  It is no use coming when you are still raw.  More pain and suffering are needed to ripen you.  The day that you are completely fed up with yourself, then go to the Sifu.”

“People often go to the Sifu when they are not yet ready; they still believe in their own selves.  Thus whatever the Sifu says they sit and weigh his words, judging the right and wrong.  What suits them they will believe; what does not they will not believe.  In that case, you are obeying your own self and not the Sifu.” 

“You cannot look upon this as faith, or call it surrender because you have changed nothing.  There is only one secret in going to the Sifu: leave your self behind and go.  Then whatever the Sifu says is right; there is nothing for you to decide.  Only when can you hear his teachings; with the entire heart – then only can you learn.  He who has heard the Sifu’s teachings becomes a student. 

“He who is ready to learn is a student.  He who is ready to listen to the teachings is a student.  But he who is still full of ego and not prepared to listen is not a student.  To put on the FMK uniform and adopt all the outward signs of a student does not make you a student, because to become a student is an emotional happening.”
