“You can experience the illusion, but when you experience the illusion as an illusion, you no longer experience it. You are running ahead of yourself.”

“You must still be able to experience any one of these illusions, knowing they are illusory, with full knowledge of their nature, and still know that the basic reality is yourself. There is no place to go because you are the place—and all places—in those terms. But the ‘joke’ is relevant. The most important thing I have said this evening is that the joke is relevant. You must be free enough to explore the nature and experience of each living thing within your own system, knowing that it is yourself, and then leave your system. These must be direct experiences.”

“You are yourself the game, in those terms.”

“Of course. So are you. We say that Shiva is playing a game, and who is Shiva besides yourself?”

“You are indeed playing a game with yourself, but it is not relevant, and it may be irrelevant. But you had better play it reverently.”
