"Every truth is a living experience. And the very nature of life is expression, expansion, declaration. Each flower declares it, each morning the sun declares it, each night millions of stars declare it. Of course their language of declaration is different – a flower declares it by its fragrance, the star declares it by its light, the moon declares it by its beauty.

"But truth, beauty, good…these three – satyam, shivam, sundram – are the basic, the fundamental trinity of existence. You cannot hide them.

"One feels embarrassed – how to say it? And to say it in a world which is skeptical, in a world where people are deaf as far as truth is concerned, where people are blind as far as beauty is concerned, where people don't have hearts as far as feeling, sensitivity is concerned…one feels alone to declare such a thing.

"But it is not out of egoism – you cannot declare such a thing out of egoism because the ego will feel very embarrassed, and ego does not like to feel embarrassed. It is out of humbleness that one declares such experiences.

"I was waiting…who, out of those three persons, is going to declare it first? Govind Siddharth has proved really humble, courageous. Whatever he is saying, he has seen it – not in sleep, not in dream.

"It is true that J. Krishnamurti was prepared for exactly this phenomenon.

"Gautam Buddha had promised that after twenty-five centuries he would be coming as Lord Maitreya. Maitreya means 'the friend.' Of course his own body was burned, and could not be kept for twenty-five centuries; the technology was not yet developed. Now it is possible. There are ten bodies in the world which are being kept. They are dead, it is very expensive to keep them, but those people were very rich people and they have willed that their bodies should be kept – because science is saying that within ten or twelve years, at the most twelve, we will be able to revive dead bodies. These rich people have allowed their bodies to be kept, so that when the technology is ready to revive them, they can be revived back to life again."
