| Invite death while living. Not committing suicide but invite death, which means ending – ending your continuity, your worries, your fears. That means to live with death daily, and therefore no attachment. Attachment is not love. End your worries now, not tomorrow, because death says, ‘I can’t wait for you; don’t argue with me; there is no time.’ It comes, so invite it. Therefore live with it. That means living and dying together. That means a life of no registration except that which is absolutely necessary – no psychological registration at all, except that which is essential for daily living, technological knowledge, etc. Can you do this? No you can’t. Why? Because to you, the misery, confusion, violence and sorrow is much better, much more worthwhile than something you don’t know. So to you what is important is knowledge, knowledge of your suffering, not the ending of suffering, not the ending of attachment, not the ending of your compulsive daily desires.
