Nothing Ever Happened

[Guest guest]

Perhaps a modern classic for seekers is the three volume book

called " Nothing Ever Happened. "

 

The words " Nothing Ever Happened " come from a Sri H.W.L. Poonja better

known as Papaji.

The words speak for themselves and yet the joke is that one volume was

not enough for this book and so three were written. These three volumes

were needed to explain what this " Nothing Ever Happened " really means.

This is not the real joke.

 

The real joke of this classic is that of all of the hundreds of

thousands, perhaps millions, of seekers who have read these three

volumes perhaps only a rare few know what these words " Nothing Ever

Happened " mean. For the rest three volumes are not enough.

And so the rest keep reading more and more books and volumes, and

seeking scriptures, gurus and gods, so that they can understand the

meaning of this word " nothing. "
