The Soul of Australia

When I went to Australia for the first time in 1976, as soon as the plane landed at the airport in Perth, the soul of Australia and I began our inner colloquy.

I said to the soul, "In India, every day we hear about cricket matches between Australia and India. For an Indian, as soon as we use the word 'cricket', we think of Australia. There is no other place. Now, your country has defeated India many more times than India has defeated you."

I went on, "I will play a game where nobody will win or lose. It is a totally different kind of game. It is God's Game. There is no cricket here. You do not have to worry about winning or losing. Here there is no competition; there is no rivalry. It is all oneness. It is our oneness-game. I have come here to devotedly offer my light to you."
