the moment you know death； you e to realize that it is not。
you believe in its existence only as long as you have not known it。
the experience of ignorance is death； the experience of awareness is immortality。
there are a few more questions which we will be able to discuss during the night session。
now we will sit for the morning meditation。
meditation means death。
meditation means to move into what is； where we are。
therefore one moves into meditation only when one is ready for dying； not otherwise。
be seated with a little distance from each other。
be seated making a little space around yourself。
those who want to lie down； do so beforehand。
also； if someone feels like lying down during the experiment he should do so。
and sit at a little distance from each other so that no one falls over you if someone lies down； or falls over。

i teach death
31 october 1969 pm in mediation camp at dwarka； gujarat； india
question 1
a friend has asked： are you teaching people how to die？ are you teaching death？ you should teach life instead。
he is right； i am indeed teaching people how to die。
i am teaching the art of dying； because one who learns the art of dying bees an expert in the art of living as well。
one who agrees to die bees worthy of living the supreme life。
only those who have known how to erase themselves also e to know how to be。
these may seem like opposite things because we have taken life and death to be opposing each other； contradictory； but they are not。
we have created a false contradiction between the two； and that has produced fatal results。
perhaps nothing has caused so much harm to the human race as this contradiction。
subsequently； this contradiction has had ramifications on many levels。
if we divide things which are essentially one into separate parts …… not only separate but contradictory parts …… the ultimate result can be nothing but the creation of a schizophrenic； insane man。
lets assume there is a place where mad people live。
great difficulty and trouble would arise if these people were to believe that cold and hot were not only separate but contradictory things …… for the simple reason that cold and hot are not contradictory； they are different degrees of qualifying the same thing。
our experience of cold and hot is not absolute； it is very relative。
a little experiment will make this clear。
we always find things which are hot and things which are co
