*Chapter 2 - Opening Yourself To The Unknown*
*Day 5*
Let me have no time to reject the infinity, the Brahman. This is so beautiful. Don't get into your small hole, your shell and say to the world that infinity does not exist. The atheists do this.
Anything that they don't know doesn't exist. Like a frog in the well thinks this is the world. So, you have rejected the infinity, this vast existence which is part and parcel of yourself. You are that self.
So the prayer is :" At no time in life may I reject the truth, this reality, this infinity. At no time I become an atheist and say, "I know all that exists and whatever I know, only that exists. At no time in life may I shift myself down, and let the infinity also not reject me".
It has many meanings and there are many levels of interpretation for this. It also says let the student not reject the teacher and let the teacher not reject the student.
Let student not reject the knowledge and let the knowledge not reject the student. Let there be no rejection. Let there be total acceptance, because any kind of rejection itself means the finite.
Here you are on the path to unite with infinity and if you go on rejecting, you are missing out on something or rather everything. Let there be no rejection.
Sometimes very good schools reject students. They want only brilliant students. They don't take the dullards and make them bright. They don't take that challenge. That is nothing great. It should be like Art of Living.
Our first philosophy is - Accept people as they are. Now I have to take all sorts of people. Our administrators often say “Why do you bring such people?” We have a word for them, “blue stars”. They are fit to be in the sky not on earth. They are in their own world. Well I can't reject them.
