You Don’t Need Your Body

707Question: Suppose I am blind, how can I not feel that I am blind?

Answer: Look within yourself!

Question: What will I see there?

Answer: You will see everything: the sky, the stars, everything! Within yourself.

Question: And if, for example, I am deaf, can I be a musician? Will I hear music?

Answer: Anything you want. You do not need your five senses. You do not
need your body! If we did not have a body, we would be so happy and perfect!

Question: So, in that case, would I not feel any deficiency if I sort of live within myself?

Answer: Yes.

Question: Can you teach me how to live like that? How can I get to this? It sounds so good.

Answer: I cannot explain it.

Question: Why do we become still when we look at the stars?

Answer: Because it is a part of the universe that is opposite to the one in which we exist. And it immediately tells us about its infinity and our finiteness.

Question: So I see infinity in this? Can I find it within myself as well?

Answer: You can find it within yourself. You can connect with these stars. You can feel how they exist.

Question: And by this, do I sort of pass into a state of infinity?

Answer: Yes.
