SCHIZOPHRENIA

Guilt always creates schizophrenia. If guilt goes very deep, it can create a real split.

There is no division between the world and spirituality. But a division arises because of the phenomenon of guilt.

So guilt has to be dropped.

Not that you have to bring spirituality and the world together; they are together. There is no way to separate them.

You have to understand your guilt and drop it, otherwise guilt always creates schizophrenia.

If guilt goes very deep, it can create a real split.

A person can really become two--so much so that one may not be aware of the other at all.

The split can become so great that the two aspects never meet; there is no encounter.

You have to understand your guilt.

Just move as naturally as possible and don't categorize something as "spiritual" and something else as "worldly."

The very categorization is wrong, because then division starts.

Once you label something as spiritual, suddenly you have condemned the world.

When you say something is worldly, the division has come in. There is no need.

You don't divide when you see the moon in the night and you enjoy it, and then one day you see a child smiling and you enjoy that.

Which is spiritual-and which is material?

You see a flower opening and something opens in you and you delight in it.

The food is being cooked and it smells delicious, and suddenly there is joy in it.

Which is spiritual and which is worldly?

The whole of humanity has become almost schizophrenic, because we have been taught to force, things.

The part that wants to laugh and the part that doesn't allow you to laugh become separate, and then you are divided.

You create a top dog and an underdog, so there is conflict.

The rift that the conflict creates can become bigger and bigger and bigger.

So the problem is how to bridge that rift, and how not to create it anymore.
