Curiosity expands your avenue of understanding,and wonder completes it. เคตिเคเคคเคौเคคुเคः । so, just being curios is not enough. เคตिเคถ्เคตं เคชเคถ्เคฏเคจ् เคตिเคเคคเคौเคคुเคः । If you see the world out of curiosity, you will never understand it as maya. But the one who can see this universe as a maya, has surpassed curiosity. This is very interesting and important. See the world out of curiosity, or just see the world, but beyond curiosity. Monkeys are very curious. But, they don't wonder. Have you observed them? Give them anything and they'll open it, just like you! And they look so many times. Once a monkey took a necklace up a tree and then tore it apart. And one by one he took the pearls and started biting and breaking them open to see what is inside. It could have done this with one pearl. But it broke and tested all the pearls in the mala, whether they had some taste! The monkey mind! Curiosity is not important; even monkeys have it.
If we have the same curiosity until the end, then we have not grown beyond our previous incarnation, our ancestors or the monkeys life! เคตिเคถ्เคตं เคชเคถ्เคฏเคจ् เคตिเคเคคเคौเคคुเคः । 'Look into the world outgrowing the curiosity. Still see the world,' He did not say not to see the world. He says to see how events happen in this entire universe. None of the events stay. Pleasant, unpleasant, horrible or most excellent, events come, float and pass away, float and pass away. เค

Death is just like taking off your clothes in the bathroom. You take off your clothes and throw them on the floor, and you look at them. Even death cannot shake such an established being. What is it you are worried about? There's nothing to be worried obsessed about.
Look at the events come, pass as go. According to their own law of karma, both pleasant and unpleasant events come and pass through you. There is no comparison to the one who has established himself in himself. Ashtavakra says, 'What can I compare? There's nothing that can be compared to a being established in himself. It is most unpredictable, unimaginable! It appears like a story; it appears to be unreal. You can only wonder about it.' Infinite awareness and focused attention, from very small things to the big. The capacity to enjoy small things appears in such a consciousness. You can even enjoy a small toffee a chocolate. You can enjoy the infinity of the universe,the stars and the magnanimous universe, without desire - the total giving of one Self, while at the same time desiring the betterment of the entire universe. Total fearlessness, yet with concern. Care and concern arises. It's a different part of the consciousness - so much care, concern and precision. All these qualities are found in a natural and most ordinary way. เคธ्เคตเคญाเคตเคคः ।
