7/27/2019 Mind is a Disneland Movies Will Change Into
Feelies
1/2
Aldous Huxley has imagined in some future century that MOVIES
WILL CHANGE INTO FEELIES. It is
possible, and it is going to happen -- because whatsoever a man
once imagines sooner or later becomes a
reality. A FEELIE IS GOING TO HAPPEN. A feelie means you will be
sitting in a movie house, but you will not
only see, you will also feel.
For example, it is raining... then you will feel the wetness in
the air, the wind blowing, even a few drops of
water coming to you. You see on the screen a rose-garden and the
whole house will become full of rose
fragrance. If the film is three-dimensional and it creates all
the sensations that are moving in front of you, itwill create more
illusions.
And it can be done in such a way... that too is possible. In
Disneyland they have some place like that --
where the screen is not only in front, but the screen is all
around you. You are sitting just in the middle, just
as you are sitting here in the middle. If you look at the back,
you see the trees. If you look at me, I am
here; if you look at the side, the people. YOU ARE SITTING IN
THE MIDDLE AND THE SCREEN IS ALL
AROUND.
They have made a few films, experimental. For example, you are
flying in an airplane and you look out of
the window this side and you see the clouds and the sun setting,
and you look from the other side and it is
darkening, and you look at the back and you see the clouds going
further away, back, and you look ahead
and you are reaching into something else... AND IF YOU SMELL
ALSO, THEN THE REALITY WILL BECOME
MORE AND MORE REAL. It can almost take the grip of you
absolutely; you can forget for a few moments
that what you are seeing is just a movie or a feelie. YOU CAN BE
LOST.
And this is the situation we are in -- this is what mind is.
MIND IS A FEELIE. It is simply making many
dreams available to you, but in three dimensions, with all the
feelings.
Just think: it is possible one day, sitting glued in the chair
before your TV, you see a beautiful woman walk
out of the TV, hug you -- and you know this is just a feelie...
this is possible! THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN.
And you know deep down that this is just nonsense, there is
nobody. But still, YOU CAN SMELL THE
WOMAN, the French perfume. You can even touch her, the
curves...
How can you protect yourself? This is possible; this is not
impossible. THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN.
Theoretically it has become possible; now practically it is
going to become possible. THEN YOU MAY BE LOST
FOR FEW SECONDS IN A GREAT LOVE AFFAIR. You will forget -- you
would LIKE to forget. Who wants to
remember the truth when such a beautiful woman is there? You
say, "OKAY, LET IT BE A DREAM OR
WHATSOEVER IT IS, BUT LET ME ENJOY RIGHT NOW." And she is
hugging you and you can feel her all over
your body. And still deep down somewhere a consciousness goes on
saying that this is just a feelie, there isnobody.
THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS TO A MEDITATOR. A meditator will still love
a woman, but he knows this is a feelie.
He will hold hands and will know... who knows whether there is
anybody or not? Because there is no way to
prove that somebody else exists outside you. In a dream you
think whatsoever you are seeing is true; in the
morning it is not true, no more true.
Now, is there any way to say, right now, whether you are seeing
me in a dream or in reality? It may be just
a dream! You have fallen asleep and you are dreaming the morning
talk. Is there any way to distinguish
whether it is real or unreal? There is no way. It may be just a
dream; YOU MAY BE JUST SEEING THINGS
AND THEY MAY NOT BE THERE.
And the problem becomes very very deep, because in a dream you
forget that it is a dream. And you have
seen the dream so many times, millions of times, and always in
the morning you find it was all unreal. But
the next day again you see the dream and it is real again.
The day-dream becomes unreal in the night, and the night-dream
becomes unreal in the day. Now what is
the way to decide which is which, and which is really real and
which is only apparently real?
BUDDHA SAYS IT IS ALL MIND GAME. Closely watch the mind, and
slowly slowly you can start seeing the
mind game. Not that you need not be there any more, because it
is all mind game -- where are you going?
where can you go? There is no need to go anywhere but just to
know.
