This you see is not a pessimistic attitude
Therefore, at all to be able to realize that this world is simply a dream
A dancing play of smoke
Fascinating yes but don't lean on it
“Life is a bridge.” Says one of the Hindu sayings
“Pass over it but build no house upon it.”
And so immediately you see that
This is responsible for the enormous gaiety of certain Hindu sages
This a thing that often puzzles Westerners
They expected that anybody who's an ascetic or a sage or something to be rather miserable
With a glum face
But on the contrary you take this character who's going around these days that Maharshi Mahesh
He's always laughing because he looks on every side
And there is the face of the beloved
Of the divinity in everybody in every direction in everything
Playing at being you
Playing at being you

Monks used to keep skulls on their desk
People nowadays think that was very morbid
Everything's falling apart so don’t try and stop it
When you're falling off the precipice
It doesn't do you any good do hang onto a rock that's falling with you
But everything is doing that
So, again this is another case that we are completely wasting our energy
In trying to prevent the world from falling apart

The fact that that life is transient is part of its liveliness
The poets in speaking of the transience of the world always offer their best poetry
You know our revels now are ended
These are actors as I foretold you are all spirits
And are melted into air
Into thin air
And like the baseless fabric of this vision
The cloud tap towers
The gorgeous palaces
The solemn temples
The great earth itself by all which it inherit shall dissolve
And like this insubstantial pageant faded leave not a rack behind

There is no hope in time
Everything is gonna get worse in time
Because as you know it does
We all fall apart in the end
Everything falls apart institutions, buildings, nations it all crumbles
And people say, “Well that's an awfully pessimistic philosophy.”
Well is it?
Well is it?
I would rather say that the people who have hope in the future are the miserable people
Because they're like donkeys
Chasing carrots that are dangled before their noses from sticks attached to their colors
And they pursue
And they pursue in vain

The Hindu life is related to this cosmology
And the objective of life is of course in the end to wake up from the dream
When you've had enough
And so, the dreaming process is called sometimes Samsara
Samsara is the round
The rat race
Samsara is divided into six divisions
This is the world of the Dava
This is the same root which we get both divine and devil
The Dava means angel
The highest the most successful beings in the universe
And so opposite this is the world of Narack
Naracka
Ho are the most unsuccessful
These are the purgatorial worlds of extreme suffering
