May it be as it is : The Embrace of Helplessness

"People always ask 'what do you think about unknotting the karmic knots'? That's Vedanta. Unknotting your tendencies by techniques, by meditation or something. You come to me, we are doing the opposite! I put so many knots in your bloody brain that you cannot even imagine that they ever will be gone. Because succeeding by unknotting knots makes the first knot, that there is one who has knots, stronger and stronger. No, I go the opposite way. I make so many knots for you, maybe there is a point of giving up even trying to unknot them. Because then laziness is there, your Nature. The laziest of the laziest." Welcome to Circus Renz! Are you ready for a high-speed roller coaster ride through spiritual concepts that might blow your mind and turn your understanding upside down? The experience of reading Karl Renz might just take you somewhere where your mind can't follow, leaving you with a refreshing sense of wonder about what just happened. 'May it be as it is' is a collection of talks Karl gave in Mumbai in 2010 and 2011. Enjoy the ride! After giving 'Self-talks' around the world for many years, Karl Renz came to Mumbai to give talks for the first time in 2010. He doesn't fit into any category but calling him an 'Advaita Punk' might come close to describing the experience of the talks. Most people who discover him get addicted to the careless irreverence and 'sixth sense of humour' of this brilliant Advaita entertainer.
