Ready for take off I am leaving !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello friends



I am a member of the group HUGE SMILE a meditation group and did read last days a nice contribution and will let it follow now

Exactly like that it happens. The flower blooms and the fragrance
spreads on the winds in all directions, to be carried to the very
ends of earth. But the basic thing is the blooming of the flower.
Man is also carrying a potentiality for flowering within him. Until
and unless the inner being of man flowers, the fragrance of
compassion is not possible. Compassion cannot be practiced. It is not
a discipline. You cannot manage it. It is beyond you. If you
meditate, one day, suddenly, you become aware of a new phenomenon,
absolutely strange - from your being compassion is flowing towards
the whole of existence; undirected, unaddressed, it is moving to the
very ends of existence.
Without meditation, energy remains passion; with meditation, the same
energy becomes compassion. Passion and compassion are not two
energies, they are one and the same energy. Once it passes through
meditation, it is transformed, transfigured; it becomes qualitatively
different. Passion moves downwards, compassion moves upwards; passion
moves through desire, compassion moves through desirelessness;
passion is an occupation to forget the miseries in which you live,
compassion is a celebration, it is a dance of attainment, of
fulfillment...you are so fulfilled that you can share. Now there is
nothing left; you have attained the destiny that you were carrying
for millennia within you like an unflowered potentiality, just a bud.
Now it has flowered and it is dancing. You have attained, you are
fulfilled, there is no more to attain, nowhere to go, nothing to do.
Now what will happen to the energy? You start sharing. The same
energy that was moving through the dark layers of passion, now moves
with light rays upwards, uncontaminated by any desire, uncontaminated
by any conditioning. It is uncorrupted by any motivation - hence I
call it fragrance. The flower is limited but not the fragrance. The
flower has limitations it is rooted somewhere in bondage. but
fragrance has no bondage. It simply moves, rides on the winds; it has
no moorings in the earth.
Meditation is a flower. It has roots. It exists in you. Once
compassion happens, it is not rooted; it simply moves and goes on
moving. Buddha has disappeared but not his compassion. The flower
will die sooner or later - it is part of earth and the dust will
return unto dust - but the fragrance that has been released will
remain forever and forever. Buddha has gone, Jesus has gone, but not
their fragrance. Their compassion still continues and whoever is open
to their compassion will immediately feel its impact, will be moved
by it, will be taken on a new journey, on a new pilgrimage.
Compassion is not limited to the flower - it comes from the flower
but it is not of the flower. It comes through the flower, the flower
is just a passage. but it comes really from the beyond. It cannot
come without the flower - the flower is a necessary stage - but it
does not belong to the flower. Once the flower has bloomed,
compassion is released.
