It's fantastic to be here at the foothills of this mountains.

Many decades of my life, first half of my life, went looking for them.

Because I had to unload my load.

Now it's...

Now I'm able to be hardly here.

On one level, in one way.

Spiritual process means to become like a mountain.

It's a table still.

Because it's only when somebody has a very stable base.

Many things can be done.

Exuberance of life is possible only if there is absolute stability.

Otherwise, exuberance will lead to madness.

Yes.

That's why a lot of people who are a little creative, little active, little exuberant

always end up being freaky and nearly insane.

Because without stability, you cannot have a dance going.

This is why Shiva means stillness, Shiva means dance at the same time.

Either you seem sitting absolutely still, or you seem in an explosion of dance.

Because an explosion is possible only when there is a stable base.

An explosion, which is not destructive, is possible only when there is stability.

And stability, people try to become stable by controlling and trimming their lives.

This is the way your grandmother would tell you how to be stable, control yourself.
