The coming out of a victim.

From this meeting the text is available:

Holland, Amsterdam, June 20, 1997.
   
< Namaskar, Isaac.
> Namaskar.
< Last night I was walking again at the backside of the room because of this post-operative backproblem, after an hour I start walking. And I just, completely without thought, was standing were I stood. And suddelnly a lady in front of me, sitting there, reacted on me as if I was a poisonous snake. And probably she didn’t know but I noticed it was already the 3d time that this happened. And, eh, quite long time ago I used to be working with people, I was a trainer in rebirthing and all this stuff. And it just didn’t work because there was always this, let’s say, this projecting that I couldn’t handle. I cannot help it that I look like somebody’s daddy or their incestuous uncle or whatever. And within this body mind system this separation that occurs is not to solve.
> Is just not what?
< Is not to solve. I could not handle it. Now I am 10 years later, I changed profession, I am a carpenter now and I finally enjoy my work. But I am walking around here and the same thing happens; people react on me as if I am poison. And I absolutely don’t know what to do.
> There’s nothing to do.
< But the problem is, that’s what I realize, eh ….
> There is a beautiful story: There was a king and he heard it was possible to become enlightened in an instant, you see, one instant. And he wanted this very badly you see. So he send for all the people from his kingdom, all the yogis and the people that were interested in this kind of thing, told them to come to the palace. And a big hall he had, bigger than this even. Many people came. And long white beards and and, the whole strory. And he said: I heard it is possible to become enlightened in an instant and anybody that can give this to me can have half of my kingdom. So, instantly, there was so much talking in the hall, everybody was talking to eachother. And everybody said: no, we cannot do this. We have long white beards, we have been trying so lang time and you want this in one instant only. We can not do it. But one young boy, he hadd a very deformed body, he stood up and said I can do this. And everybody laughed at him. So he stood up and he adressed everybody. He said: none of you have the right to even be in this hall, because you are only leather merchants. You only see the skin, you see, you don’t see who I am at all. You’re leather merchants only. You know something by how good the skin is only. Then he turned to teh king and said: okay, I can do this. But it’s usual when a worrthy student comes to a teacher, they must give him some gift, you see, can be a leaf, can be a rock, some gift must be there. So the king said, well, I told you, I’ll give you half of my kingdom. He said, well to whom did this kingdom belong before you? My father. And who will get the kingdom after you? My son. So this kingdom is not yours, you are only the custodian of it, you see. So you can not give me what is not yours to give. So the king thought and he said: okay, then I will offer to serve you. And the boy said: well, already you are married. Not only once but twice, you have already promise to serve these queens. How can you promise me something that you have already promised some other people, you see? You must promise me something that you have not promised anybody. So the king was very smart. He said: okay I have something I have not offered anybody. I give you my mind. So the boy said: I accept. So, the king’s condition was, he had to put one foot in the stirrup of the horse and before he could put the other foot on the back he had to be enlightened. The boy said okay, you put your foot in the stirrup and now you repeat: I give you my mind, I give you my mind, I give you my mind. The king did this and the boy said: ok now bring your foot on the horse. And the king did and he realised himself, he ….. no mind, he is the Self. Sp this is actually a very famous story. This has nothing to do with how you look, how old you are. People have woken up who have been murderers before. There is the story with this one murderer with buddha. Any kind of person can wake up, this has nothing to do with anything, you see. So, clearly people have prejudices, we look at somebody and when they are young whe think they are very beautiful. But everybody gets old and everybody gets wrinkles, you see. So, even this beauty doesn’t last. So you are lucky. Already people don’t trust your looks. So you know that anybody that meets you is not interested in your looks, you see.
Silence.
> But usually, also, beyond the looks, everybody has some story in their eyes, you see. Some story written in the eyes. And when you look at a person you see how they want you to be with them. And usually we read the story without even recognising what is is you see. So. some young girls or boys they want somebody to fall in love with them. And you can read the story very clearly. Other people want you to blame them. Other people want you to reject them. So you can see what story is there in everybodies eyes. Some people want you to treat them very sofly, you can see that you see, some people are very quiet, instantly you can see. When you look in a young baby’s eyes, there is no story, usually no story at all. But very quickly some storie comes. So, when you have no face, no storie in your mind, then your eyes are very different. Everybody can look in them and only see beauty. You have seen many people sitting in front, you have seen these eyes. So, if you have judgements in your mind about people, then, surely, they will feel this. If you have fear of being judged, surely they will feel this. Anything you have in your mind, you see.
