... only energy, and if you condemn it and suppress it you are against the universe. Then you will never be capable of knowing the higher flowering of this energy. And when it is suppressed it becomes ugly - this is the vicious circle." Priests, moralists, so-called religious people - popes, shankaracharyas and others - they go on condemning sex. They say that this is an ugly thing. And when you...
... suppress it, it becomes ugly. So they say, "Look! What we said is true. It is proved by you. Look! Whatsoever you are doing is ugly and you know it is ugly." But it is not sex which is ugly, it is these priests who have made it ugly. Once they have made it ugly they are proved right. And when they are proved right you go on making it more and more ugly. Sex is innocent energy - life flowing in...
... on working on the questions: "What has happened to man? Why is he not achieving orgasm through sex? Why is there so much dissatisfaction?" All the researches indicate that the reason is that man cannot surrender - that is why he cannot achieve orgasm. Even while making love, while deep in sex, your mind remains in control. You go on controlling. You are not in a 'let-go'. You are afraid...
... to let go because if you allow the sex energy to move uncontrolled you don't know where it will lead. You may go mad, you may even die. That is the fear. So you remain in control. You go on manipulating your body. This manipulation from the mind doesn't allow the whole body to become a flow of energy.

... attention to the 'In' in it. But we always take inspiration from others. Thus the word is misunderstood. 'Inspiration' means inner impulse. The other can be an instrument in this.

A lighted-lamp can become a source of information for an extinguished lamp which can also burn, because it has a wick and it has oil. And...
... was very nervous and that I should go and see him. I went there. His eyes were closed and he was repeating Rama, Rama. I shook him and asked 'What ar you doing' He opened his eyes and said, 'I don't know. When I felt death was approaching, my mind said, let Krishnamurti go and then it was out of my control. Then 'Rama' began to come out my mouth. I am now uttering that word, it is coming out by...
... political domination, somebody else can spread his religious empire -- but it is all the same! The desire is to dominate more and more people. Politicians are not very intelligent people. Those thirty-six people who started quarrelling must have been politicians. And this is something that is always going to happen; it is something in the nature of things -- it cannot be avoided. Those who were really in...
... always yesterday that has to dominate, it is always the past that has to dominate the present. That's what I mean by 'consistency'. Then you will never grow, because your youth has to be consistent with your childhood, and your old age has to be consistent with your youth -- that means you will remain childish your whole life. And that's how people are. The average mental age of human beings is only...
... FALLIBLE? Nityam, I am not the pope of the Vatican - I am not infallible. I enjoy fallibility. And Buddha was not infallible and Jesus was not infallible. Only these stupid popes, they started claiming to be infallible, because they wanted to dominate, they wanted to exploit people. I have no desire to dominate anybody, I have no desire to exploit anybody. I have no desire at all. Fallibility is natural...
... their position, nothing is attained. Control of your consciousness begins with contentment; but do not forget the wrong type of contentment which is born out of helplessness.

Just ahead of them stood the bandits with guns in hand, shouting, "Halt...
... here is merely the play of the waves. Who is going to remember you when you are gone? And who really bothers about you while you are alive - even though you may be sitting on a throne? Look at those who rule the land. Wherever they go they are received with thrown stones. You look for flowers but you get stones thrown at you. You look for respect and you are insulted. If you gain your place by force...
... are in TAPASCHARYA - in austerity. It is arduous. Gurdjieff had many exercises. One exercise was to deny the mechanism sometimes. You are hungry: just deny and let your body suffer. You be just calm and quiet, and remember that the body is hungry. Don't suppress it; don't force it not to be hungry. It is hungry; you know. But at the same time say to it, "I am not going to fulfill this hunger...
... hunger is not felt, the whole point is missed! Then you are playing tricks. Let the hunger be there in its totality, in its intensity. Let it be there; don't escape from it. Let the fact of it be there, present, and remain aloof and tell the body, "Today I am not going to give you anything." There is neither conflict nor suppression nor any escape. If you can do this, then suddenly you become...
... suppress violence, your teeth will absorb it and your jaw will become diseased, because animals, whenever violent, use teeth and nails. Our nails belong to animality. our teeth belong to animality - a long animal heritage. So when someone is violent and suppresses it, the teeth become loaded. Now they say that many diseases of the teeth are just because so much violence is suppressed - many diseases of...
... little time is needed because it is a mechanism. You will get angry, but after a gap. Things will happen like a flash. First you will feel insulted. The moment you feel insulted, the second current will begin to flow: you will become angry. At first the anger will not be conscious; first it will be just like a fever. Then it will become conscious. Then you will begin to express or suppress it. So when...

Hysteria is the...
... could control them! A woman can prove stronger than man, if she is allowed to develop completely for nature has endowed her with the power of creation. The power of creation is so great a power that it can only be contained by those who are strong; for they alone are capable of holding the embryo. Lao Tzu says, "Understand this Female-Mystery well."
