I had a confusion with the word “confusion”

But now it has gone with this finding!
CONFUSION IS SYMBOLIC OF INTELLIGENCE AND GROWTH

Confusion simply means you have started thinking; you have started being an individual on your own. Confusion is not a bad state at all. Every seeker has to start with confusion. It is good that you are feeling a little confused. That shows the beginning of intelligence, because unless you have some intelligence you cannot be confused. The heart never gets confused; it simply knows.

Confusion means: new furniture in the house
Confusion comes only when something new comes. Whenever something new comes you have to read just yourself. Confusion means you have brought new furniture in the house; now you have to rearrange everything. Confusion is part of life. Only dead people are never confused. Confusion simply says that you are still alive, you are still growing.

Do your acts playfully
Whatsoever you are doing, do it playfully, don’t be serious about it. And then there will be no question of confusion. Whenever you are confused, that simply shows that you have come against something in yourself which needs to be changed. You have come across a block — that block has to be dissolved. Somewhere you have some habit, some pattern, and some structure that is creating trouble; that structure can be changed. Don’t be worried!

Confusion and certainty are together
When there is confusion, there can be certainty; when confusion disappears, certainty also disappears. It is the most beautiful moment in one’s life when there is neither confusion nor certainty. One simply is, a mirror reflecting that which is, with no direction, going nowhere, with no idea of doing something, with no future, just utterly in the moment, tremendously in the moment.

Life is paradox
Life has tremendous mystery in it because it is based on paradox. You are feeling confused because you have a certain fixed idea about how life should be — you don’t allow life to be as it is. The confusion is of your own creation.
The moment you accept that I don’t know, all confusion will disappear, simply evaporate – just as dewdrops evaporate in the early morning sun, leaving no trace behind them.

Saying for…
Meditation is a state of clarity, not a state of mind.
Mind is confusion. Mind is never clear. It cannot be. Thoughts create clouds around you. A mist is created by them, and the clarity is lost. When thoughts disappear, when there are no more clouds around you, when you are in your simple beingness, clarity happens. Meditation is clarity, absolute clarity of vision. You cannot think about it. You have to drop thinking. Let thoughts settle themselves. You just sit gazing at the wall, in a silent corner, relaxed, loose. You remain alert inside but the whole body moves into deep relaxation.
