Visitor: Is loneliness not existing or only the loneliness of mind?

Madhukar: In reality there is no loneliness. It is only the loneliness of the ego.

V: That means: continue and switch off the ego?

M: Where did you learn that?

V: My mind tells me that.

M: I more likely say let be. Be here.

V: To be here means to be in meditation with myself.

M: No, I would not let any meditation come between me and me. For what? Meditation in its classical sense always means separation. Do not allow any separation, also no imagination of separation.

V: I do not understand that all the way. I thought I am in meditation when I am connected to myself. I did not know that I am in separation when I am in meditation.

M: Meditation is always concentrated on something, so it means separation. To be connected would then be religio, religion. That also means that there is differentness. You and something different with which you connect yourself. The imagination of a God who is separate from you. But I indicate to you that which is here, Self. Limitless Self. Formless love.

V: I am practicing.

M: As you wish. But each practicing will not bring you here, but only away from here.

V: OK. Thank you very much.

M: Welcome.
