... thing, better than a person. A person is always dangerous. If you love a woman it is always dangerous; if you love a man it is always dangerous - because a man or a woman is a freedom, intrinsic freedom. You cannot totally control. Man has tried in every way - to create marriage, and laws, and this and that, and create respectability around it, and punishment and awards, and everything just to make...

... of Buddha. You have come to the Buddhaland. You have come to know the Tao. These sutras of Lao Tzu are methods: How to attain to the inner Buddhaland. Now, try to understand the sutras. THAT WHICH LIES STILL IS EASY TO HOLD; You have been trying, in a thousand and one ways, to hold yourself, to control yourself, but you have not been able to because the mind is not still. When the mind is not still...

... you cannot hold it. When it is still it is no more, it is not there - and that is the only way to hold it. You cannot control the mind. In fact people who control the mind are the people who don't have the mind. It is a misnomer to say that they control the mind. People who have the mind never control it, cannot control it.

... of your own being, if you don't want to be a slave, and a slave of so many masters: everybody manipulating you, manoeuvring you, controlling you, oppressing you, exploiting you - enemies, friends, those who are close kith and kin and those who are foes - all manoeuvring you, trying to control you, if you want to be a master of yourself - the only way is to still the mind, to slow down its process...

... be heard. But if you become a little silent you will know of anger before it reaches you. Then it can be treated very easily. The second stage is when the anger has taken possession. Then it is almost impossible to push the force back. In fact you are so much possessed that you are not there to control it. When you are angry you are not, only anger is; your total being is taken possession of. It...
