infinite. There is no need for any psychological treatment if you are capable of losing yourself. On the contrary, you will be the psychologist. That kind of awareness and that kind of power will be there. You will be able to cross that narrow level on which most people are living. They live in the realm of mind and words and you are going beyond the limitations of both. This is the real experience felt in that moment of meditation. But for this experience, you are completely positive; that is the primary condition. No negative thinking. Many negative teachings exist; but once you are caught in these processes, you will have lost your track. It will be extremely difficult to find your way back again, to have the same thread in hand. It is like flying a kite. Once the cord is cut, no matter how often or how high you.jump, you will never be able to retrieve the kite. You have lost the thread and the kite is gone.
Many people do not realize this danger. They experiment out of curiosity and ultimately become the victims of their experimentation because of their negative approaches. Once entangled, it is difficult to free themselves. In a way, it is similar to the experience of a pupil of mine in India. He was a member of a gang in Bombay. When I advised him to leave the gang, he replied that it would be impossible without leaving India. Convinced that he would threaten their security, the gangsters would track him down relentlessly and kill him. Even the protection of the police would not be sufficient.
