You
Have To 'Go Into' K'S TEACHINGS: Nobody,
unless the body has been prepared, very carefully, protected and so
on-nobody can understand what went through this body. Nobody. Don't
anybody pretend. Nobody. I repeat this: nobody amongst us or the public,
know what went on. I know they don't. And now after seventy years it
has come to an end. Not that that intelligence and energy - it' s somewhat
here, every day, and especially at night. And after seventy years the
body can't stand it - can't stand any more. It can't. The Indians have
a lot of damned superstitions about this - that you will and the body
goes - and all that kind of nonsense. You won't find another body like
this, or that supreme intelligence operating in a body for many hundred
years. You won't see it again. When he goes, it goes. There is no consciousness
left behind of that consciousness, of that state. They'll all pretend
or try to imagine they can get into touch with that. Perhaps they will
somewhat if they live the teachings. But nobody has done it. Nobody.
And so that's that. When
Scott asked him to clarify some of what he had said in this statement
for fear it might be misunderstood he became 'very upset' with him and
said, 'You have no right to interfere in this.' As
I said earlier, K knew far more than anyone else can ever hope to know
about who and what he was, and in this last recording he ever made was
he not sharing with us all something of what he did know which he had
never revealed before? This sharing is surely an ineffable privilege.
Did he not intend this message to be for all of us? Is he not telling
us that the work is done, that it will not, and does not need to, be
done again - at any rate not for a very long time? Nor is he taking
away hope from us, for he tells us again, as he had maintained most
of his life, that if we live the teachings we may be able touch 'that'.
If. The teachings are there. The rest is up to us. After
this last tape K had nine more days to live. -Pg

oneself lies the whole world, and if you know how to look and learn,
then the door is there and the key is in your hand. Nobody on earth
can give you either that key or the door to open, except yourself. -Pg
