Your ignorance makes you confused

The search for God is a search conducted by ignorance, for no separation exists. We have lost the divine reality, though it is our own true nature. To speak of this is considered madness by a world intoxicated by attachment. This intoxication, like a drug placed in a village well, clouds the perception of all. It creates a false sense of separation and qualities that obscure the truth. Removing this attachment reveals the underlying reality. The search ends when the intoxication ceases.

"If you can separate the waves from the ocean, you can separate yourself from God."

"In this creation, someone put that kind of intoxication. The intoxication of attachment."

If you can separate the waves from the ocean, you can separate yourself from God. So when we are not separated, then what are we searching for? Whom are we searching? And where are we searching for him? So what is searching is our ignorance. You go to the market, and you meet some friends. Your name is František. So they will say, "Oh, František, Dobrý den." He will say, "Yes, how are you, Dobrodan, kakosi? What are you doing here, Franciszek?" I’m sorry to tell you, but I’m in a hurry to go. I’m in a hurry to go. Why? Where are you going? Have you seen František somewhere? They will say, "Yes, my friend. Come, sit down. We eat ice cream. We will phone at home, and we will call the ambulance. I have a good connection with a psychiatric doctor. I have a good connection. Don’t worry. You will get good treatment." So we declare such a person as mentally ill. Confused means that person lost the reality. In modern psychology, we say the person lost the reality. In modern psychology, we say we need some treatment. Similarly, we lost that divine reality. Not that that is within me. I am that. And that I am. But if we tell anybody this, they will laugh at us, because everyone has these yellow glasses, everyone sees yellow, everything is yellow, and now you will tell them that there is blue. They will say you must be crazy. Therefore, in one village, there was a village of the farmer community called Jat. They are very active people, creative people. Very near to nature. Maintaining the entire ecology. So, the old system was that everyone, the whole village, drank water from one water well. So, one day, what happened? The whole village people became a little bit stupid. Okay, one, two, or three, but all. All are talking something different. So, what happened now? It happened that someone put the hashish powder in the water well. And all who drank water from this water vial got intoxicated. So that in this creation, someone put that kind of intoxication. The intoxication of attachment. And this attachment has created a lot of other qualities. If we remove this, we will see the reality. Otherwise, we have lost the reality. Otherwise, we would have lost her.
