V: For me this all is totally new because I am not spiritual in my life. I have seen you one time in Cologne and just simply had to come here (retreat “Mystery of Oneness” in Goa). There was war between my mind and my heart. The heart won and now I get rewarded.

Madhukar: Now you get rewarded?

V: When I look into your eyes I only see pure love. I am totally speechless. I never before was that much in the Here and Now as I am when looking into your eyes. I would like to learn to integrate that into my everyday life. I often think about yesterday and tomorrow – but not about the Now.

Madhukar: The best is you totally merge into this love. Then also your everyday life becomes wonderful.

V: And how do I do that?

Madhukar: By not getting involved into old stories. This love of the master is hardly comparable with the emotional love, the love we know, the human nature in a relationship. It is so efficient that – if you do not turn away from it – it is outshining everything, when you fly back home. When you really authentically say: “It is the best that ever was!” Many have said that before and still they turned away from it – into their stories, their programs, past, the hope into future.

V: I am afraid of coming home...

Madhukar: Nonsense! For now you are here, then in Cologne, and there the cathedral of Cologne will watch over you. Don’t be afraid! The cathedral of Cologne is enlivened from within – I myself go there twice a year – it is watching over you then. But for now you are here and not in Cologne already again.

V: That is very beautiful!
