There
is no need to postponed celebration. Immediately, right this moment you can
celebrate. Nothing else is needed. To
celebrate, being is needed and being you have. To celebrate, trees and birds
and stars are needed, and they are there. What else do you need? If you are
crowned and aged in a golden palace, then will you celebrate? In fact, then it
will become more impossible. Have you ever seen an emperor laughing and dancing
and singing in the street? No he is caged, imprisoned by manner and etiquette.
Man
is born with the capacity to celebrate. When even birds can celebrate, why not
you? But you create unnecessary barriers, you create a hurdle race. There are
no barriers. You put them there and then you say "Unless we cross them and
jump them how can we dance" You stand against yourself, you stand divided
against yourself, you are an enemy to yourself. All the preachers in the world
go on saying that you are ordinary, so how can you dare to celebrate? you have
to wait. first be Buddha, first be Jesus, a Mohammed and then you can.
But
just the opposite in the case: if you can dance, you are already the Buddha; if
you can celebrate, you are already the Mohammed; if you can be blissful, you
are Jesus.
