Up to man there has been evolution, from the fish to the man there has been evolution. But from man to a Buddha, from man to a Christ, from man to a Kabir, it is not evolution, it is revolution -the revolution I call it, the only revolution. You will not become a buddha unless you become conscious, unless you prepare the ground for it to happen. It is not like old age: every young man will become old. But every man is not going to become a buddha. You will have to choose it, you will have to work for it, you will have to look for it. A deliberate conscious effort will be needed on your part, only then is there a possibility.

God is known through the heart! Let it sink deep into your being: God is only known through the heart. So when the Buddhas say "Wake up!" they mean let your heart be awake. When the head is awake, it thinks. it spins, weaves, beautiful systems of thought. And when the heart is awake, it sings songs of love. It celebrates - just the sheer joy of being is enough to celebrate.

That's what Kabir is going to say to you today. His sutras are of immense beauty. Each single word has to be meditated upon. Remember I am not saying 'think upon, I am saying 'meditate'. I am saying: Be silent and still and let his song sink in your heart. Let it stir your heart, let it awaken your sleeping energies of love, joy, bliss.

Religion is a celebration. You cannot be indoctrinated in religion. because religion is not a doctrine at all. It is a very mad love affair.
