Being in a crowd when you are alone is ignorance.
Enlightenment is being alone in a crowd; a feeling of oneness in a crowd – this is a sign of wisdom.
Some know how to celebrate only when they are in a crowd;
Some can rejoice only alone in silence. I tell you to do both.
Knowledge of life brings confidence, and Knowledge of death makes you fearless and centred.
Celebrate while you are alone and
Celebrate when you are with people.
Celebrate the silence and Celebrate the noise.
Celebrate life and Celebrate death.
This is the Eleventh Commandment!
By Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
