... crowded with ugly desires, passions, anger, greed, all that is condemned, which is there beyond your control, pulling you here and there, pushing you from here and there, constantly a madhouse - this very mind, says this sutra, is the door. Wherever your mind is wandering - wherever remember; the object is not relevant - wherever your mind is wandering, internally or externally, "AT THIS VERY PLACE...
... the world. Again he focuses, but now the inner man has a different quality. He knows that this is his focusing. These clouds are allowed to move. These clouds are not masters; they cannot dominate you. You allow them, and it is beautiful. Sometimes, when the sky is filled with clouds, it is beautiful; the movement of the clouds is beautiful. If the sky remains itself, the clouds can be allowed to...
... cell of the body, of the mind, some energy which has always been there pushed down, is leaving. There will be a shaking, a trembling; it will be just like an earthquake. The whole soul will be disturbed by it but let it be. Don't do anything. That is my advice. Don't even chant the name of Ram. Don't try to do anything with it because all that you can do will again be suppression. Just by allowing it...
... will start to do something. You may know that nothing can be done, but you will not be in control and you will start to do something. It is just as if you are moving through a dark street in the night, midnight, and you feel fear because there is no one around and the night is dark and the street is unknown - so you start whistling. What can whistling do? You know it can do nothing. Then you start...
... THE INDIA-INK PICTURE. What shall we call the mind? That is a constant question. It is just soap bubbles - or wind blowing through the pine trees. It is not substantial. Your thoughts are not even ricepaper thick. They are just signatures on water. But they dominate your life. You allow them to dominate your life. It is ultimately your responsibility. You can stop this very moment and get out of the...
...? It doesn't seem to be connected with cause and effect. How does Mahatma Gandhi come in? But the problem was that in his ashram that was the rule, that nobody can fall in love. Love everybody, but don't fall in love. Strange things.... So love is just simply a word; it does not mean anything. So everybody says to everybody, "I love you" - but don't mean it! If you mean it, Mahatma Gandhi...
... prison for her; you take revenge because she has made the prison for you. And you are both the jail and the jailers. It is a strange phenomenon. Both are spying on each other, both are watching each other. Both are being jealous. Both are trying to dominate. Both are destroying all that love can give - joy, freedom, friendship. Have you seen any husband and wife being friends? I have known thousands of...
... control yourself?" You are afraid of so many things that can happen to you if the control is lost. Hence you start doing a very contradictory work: on one hand you dismantle yourself, and on the other hand you put yourself together again. This can continue for years. The fashionably dressed girl these days wears pants to make her look like a boy, and see-through blouses just to prove that she is...
... for, something so full of worth that even life can be sacrificed to it. But it should not be arbitrary. There are many arbitrary meanings. Adolf Hitler gave Germany an arbitrary meaning: Live for the Aryan race, live for the pure Nordic blood, because you are born to rule the world. He gave great hope, but it flopped. It was bound to happen. He himself committed suicide; that was almost destined...
... exist. And if they want to exist they will have to change their whole outlook, their very foundations. But there is every possibility for Buddha and his message to prevail. In fact, his day has come. He came twenty-five centuries ahead of his time. Now is the time, the right time for him. He does not talk of fear, he does not talk of greed, he does not talk of hell and heaven, he does not talk even...
... something to the other, but somehow they were keeping control. Finally one exploded and he said, "Whatsoever people say, whatsoever their opinion, I want to say that I am thirsty!" Thirst is not an opinion, it is your experience. Is it your experience? If it is your experience, the question cannot arise, because then you would have understood exactly what I was saying. Meditation is the process...
... it in subtle ways, you are bound to miss it. And many people are doing the same. Sometimes it is very difficult for me; even if I see that something beautiful is happening to you I have to control myself not to say it, because there is every danger that just by saying it your ego may feel puffed up. And that will be the point when you will lose it. There are many people who are coming closer and...
... suppress it - meditate on it. Close your eyes and meditate on the fact of anger. when I say meditate, many things have to be understood. Don't judge. Don't say anger is bad; don't say it is good. don't do anything. Anger is there just like when a snake has come in the room - just be aware. Is the snake a god to be worshipped? No! Is the snake an enemy to be killed? No! Just be aware that the snake has...
...: the energy that was going to be used as indulgence or as suppression will become part of your alertness. Your alertness will be strengthened through that energy. That energy will move to your alertness; you will become more alert. That energy will become a fuel to your consciousness. You will be more conscious, and for the first time the unconscious will not be able to force you. For the first time...
.... Everyone talks about love, everyone thinks about love - but no one loves, because love is dangerous. When you love someone, you are losing yourself: you will not be in control. You cannot know things directly; you cannot manipulate. You are melting. You are losing control. That is why, when someone loves someone, we say he has "fallen" in love. We use the word "falling": we say "...
... this one. A free university simply means that there is no expectation from you. You are helped to be free, you are nourished to be free, you are supported to be free. You are given individuality. If there are expectations, freedom is destroyed. Expectations are a subtle way, cunning way to dominate. And if the expectation is to live in obedience to the gospel of Jesus Christ then the whole thing is...
... have not blossomed yet, hence you are unaware of your rareness; and you will not blossom if you go on fulfilling these expectations. Don't fulfill any expectations of anybody. You have only one responsibility and that is towards your own being. If you try to fulfill others' expectations you will be in trouble because they will impose, they will dominate, they will cripple and paralyze you. They are...
