... ego needs the marketplace. The ego can exist only in relationship; the ego cannot exist without relationship. Just as a bridge needs two banks to exist... It cannot exist only with one bank, if there is only one bank the bridge will fall. And that is the beauty of being alone: when you are tremendously alone, all the bridges that connect you - with money, power, people, prestige - start evaporating...
.... One has to die, and that's the only way to life abundant. People are in discontent, but their discontent is about things - prestige, power, money, et cetera. The same discontent has to be turned and focussed on god. Once all the discontent of life is focussed on god, it creates tremendous energy... energy that can transform you just by its sheer presence. You can ride on the wave of it. People are...
... leave. He says he wants to make money while away and to stay here longer next time.... ] Things are going perfectly well and because things are going perfectly well there is this trouble. When somebody is really becoming very close to me it becomes difficult to go, very difficult, so your feeling is right that you have to create a kind of distance, otherwise how will you be able to go? There are only...
.... Only then is one victorious. Not by having much money is one victorious, no. Not by having political power is one victorious, no. One is victorious only when one feels deep down in one's heart a great welling up of joy... when one's whole life is a song, when one's every moment is serene, calm, quiet, when each movement has tremendous grace. And this is possible. I am not talking about the impossible...
... is a deep, dark night and one is constantly afraid because the ego is always on the verge of dying. It knows it has to die. At the most it can only prolong a little bit more, but it is sitting on the volcano, because it is a falsity and a falsity cannot abide forever. Hence the fear of the ego... hence all the efforts of the ego to make itself secure, safe - through money, through power, through...
..., money and bank balances. To live in such confinement is to live the life of a materialist. A materialist is a prisoner. Even though he goes to the church, even though he goes to the temple - that is just a formality. He never becomes aware of the mystery of Christ. He goes to the church every Sunday, but how can he become aware of the mystery of Christ if he is not aware of the mystery of the trees in...
.... There is no need to renounce that which is not. But all these philosophers were trying by every means and argument to prove that everything is unreal - money, power, prestige, relationship, husband, wife, children, parents, all are unreal. So don't waste your time with unreality. Renounce! so that you can attain to the real. But I hope it is absolutely clear to you that you can renounce something only...
... with money, diamonds, emeralds, and all kinds of valuable things, and I don't need them, so I refuse them. And he is just sitting by my side, and he tells those people, 'Okay, if he is refusing, bring them to me. Anyway it doesn't look good that you have come to offer and you are going rejected. Offer them to me.' "So I reject, and he goes on collecting. And I told him that this is not right...
... Kamal's business to take care of his own being, it is not your business. I'm not your disciple. I am a master on my own authority." And Kabir looked into himself and agreed with Kamal: "Perhaps you are right. My being interested and being angry that you are gathering money shows my greed, not your greed, shows my anger, not your anger. And you left so joyously, touching my feet, saying, 'If...
... mother reported to me, "It is very difficult to find where he is, because he goes with everybody. He has such a great friendship with all the sannyasins" - and he was a little child. He used to ask anybody, "Just give me ten rupees. I am going to see the movie." And it was not only one-sided; if somebody was in need of money, he would bring the money from others and give it to the...
... austerity, asceticism will be finished and they will enjoy heaven forever and forever. And what are you going to enjoy there? -- the same women who are the doors to hell here! The same money, the same gold which you go on calling dust...in heaven even the flowers are made of gold. I would not like such a heaven! Flowers made of gold cannot have any perfume. A roseflower made of gold will be ugly, it will...
... money to buy an island in the Pacific for the new ashram. I know He wants to leave India, and so I'm going to find the perfect place for Him. I expect I will get to live in His house there." The second swami sighs, "Oh! If there were only a hundred sannyasins like you!" "Well," the first swami says, "I probably shouldn't tell you this, but when He told me to go back to...
... breasts on a man? If God is almighty he could have just dropped a bag of gold to give the woodcutter enough money to buy food for the baby." The rabbi meditated on this for a while, then said, "Why should God spend such a lot of money when he can just do a miracle?" In a deserted bar two people were seated at opposite ends of the room.
