Exactly in the middle, where two polarities dissolve and contradictions meet, mind simply goes<br />

out of function. <strong>The</strong> mind cannot conceive how contradictions can meet, how<br />

polarities can be one. But in existence they are meeting, they are one. Have you seen life and<br />

death separate It is your mind that makes the categories and words separate. But look into<br />

existence -- it is life turning into death death turning into life. <strong>The</strong>re is no division, they are part<br />

of one whole. It is the mind that has created the idea of beauty and ugliness. But in existence...<br />

do you think that if all human minds for a moment disappeared from the earth -- would there be<br />

beauty in anything, ugliness in anything<br />

Would the rose still be beautiful No, as the mind is not there, there is nobody to judge and<br />

beauty and ugliness are mental judgments.<br />

<strong>The</strong> rose will be there, just as the thorn will be there, but there will be no evaluation because<br />

the evaluator is not there. <strong>The</strong>y will both exist without any hierarchy. <strong>The</strong> rose will not be higher<br />

than the thorn. <strong>The</strong> flower of the marigold will not be a poor flower and the rose, a rich flower;<br />

they will be on the same plane.<br />

All hierarchy is created by the mind: the lower, the higher, for and against.<br />

Think in another way: for a moment, let the mind be there but drop judgment -- which is a little<br />

more difficult. You can visualize a state where all minds have disappeared and certainly you can<br />

see there is no possibility of anything being ugly, beautiful. Things will be there, just themselves,<br />

with no <strong>com</strong>parison, no judgment, no labeling.<br />

Now try the other, which is a little more difficult. Let the mind be there -- so all the minds are<br />

there but nobody is judging -- for one hour, no judgment. Can beauty be there, can ugliness be<br />

there Can something be moral and something immoral Can there be a sinner and a saint<br />

For that one hour, all these categories will disappear and you will have, for the first time, a real<br />

contact with reality as it is, not as projected by you, manufactured by your mind. Your mind is<br />

continuously manufacturing reality; otherwise, who is a saint and who is a sinner<br />

Man's mind is easily ready for any extreme because the extreme is its life-force. When two<br />

extremes meet, they cancel each other and they leave a vacuum. That's the meaning of the<br />

middle way: let the extremes <strong>com</strong>e to a point where they cancel each other and suddenly you<br />

are left neither atheist nor theist. Those questions be<strong>com</strong>e irrelevant. But the mind is not ready<br />

to drop either in religion, in philosophy, or even in science.<br />

Recently i watcheda documentary film on the history of mathematics. <strong>The</strong> whole history of<br />

mathematics can be said to be the whole problem of the human mind. For two
