... all. For all the money that.... Q: WHICH WOULD CREATE MORE CONTROVERSY, IF MORE PEOPLE WERE SAYING, "I'M LOSING MY SON AND DAUGHTER TO THIS COMMUNE," SINCE THAT'S USUALLY THE WAY THE MEDIA REPORTS IT - - AND THAT'S THE HYSTERIA THAT'S REPORTED IN MANY NEWSPAPERS. A: That is a possibility, but one thing you should remember: I have not used American dollar in creating this commune at all...
.... All the money has come from different countries. American dollar I have not used yet. I will use it... I cannot leave them just like that. Even they, they are chickens, I will... I have a chicken house here! Q: IS IT POSSIBLE THAT THIS ISN'T SO ATTRACTIVE TO AMERICANS POSSIBLY BECAUSE THEY HAVE SUCH A SUPERIOR ATTITUDE? A: No. They have been coming -- not only they, but their leaders were coming...
... understand, that is their problem. We are not worried and it is not a problem to us. Q:* WELL, IT DOES OCCUPY A LOT OF TIME AND ENERGY AND MONEY.... A:* No. Q:*... FIGHTING THESE BATTLES. A:* No problem, because four hundred sannyasins we have who are law experts, the biggest law firm in the world. Q:* WOULDN'T THEY RATHER BE.... A:* So they.... Q:*... WOULDN'T THEY RATHER BE LAUGHING THAN DOING LAW THOUGH...
... people and they can produce it. Q:* AND ALSO I DON'T DO RESEARCH MYSELF, BECAUSE IT'S RATHER DIFFICULT, BUT IF... AS YOUR UNIVERSITY PROGRESSES, IF THERE WERE PEOPLE AND MONEY AND TIME AND ENERGY TO DO SOME RESEARCH, ATTEMPTING TO DESCRIBE THIS WORK, IT WOULD BE GOOD AS PART OF YOUR PUBLIC RELATIONS TO REACH OUT TO THE COMMUNITY OF PSYCHOLOGISTS JUST TO SAY, "HERE, WE ARE SERIOUS. WE DO THIS WORK...
... possess one thing, then you start possessing another thing, then you possess a third thing. Sometimes you start possessing other-worldly things, but nothing changes. Just form changes. Somebody possesses money and somebody starts possessing virtue. Now it is the same, not much difference. I have heard: Early one Sunday morning, Farmer Giles looked out to see a flock of large black crows devouring his...
... greedy for money and there are people who are greedy for God. It makes no difference at all, they are the same people. Greed is greed. It makes no difference about what greed is, for what greed is. Greed is greed. Just see the point that striving is meaningless, that going anywhere is meaningless. Not because I am saying it - you have to see it: IHI PASSIKA. You have to see it, you are not to believe...
... to be achieved, nothing worth achieving. When you are in such a state of mind, mind relaxes - no future, no desire, no goal, nowhere to go, so what to do? He simply sat, he became just like the tree. The whole night he slept, and later on Buddha said that for the first time he really slept that night - because when effort is there it continues in sleep also. A person who is earning money and who is...
... after money goes on counting even in his dreams, a person who is after power and prestige and politics goes on fighting elections in his dreams. You all know that when you are sitting for an examination in the university or college, in sleep also you go on doing the examination; again and again you are in the examination hall answering questions. So whatsoever effort is there it continues in sleep...
... children are laughing. And I am afraid that they are such idiots that they may start doing it themselves. When they see that this is such a good way to harass me they will do it, and I will have to bribe them with money. I am a poor man. You please stop it." I said, "It is very difficult, because it is a national movement." He said, "National movement? But why in my house, why just in...
... front of me?" I said, "That I don't know, but it is a national movement. If you want to stop it, you do one thing: to whoever shows you the finger, you also show the finger." He said, "That is right. But who is going to earn money? Who is going to do my business?" I said, "That I don't know. I don't have any business, I am just sitting here. And just sitting... I thought...
... DONE, STILL REPEAT THE PAST AS IF I HAVE NO CHOICE. WHAT TO DO? CAN CHANGE BE PERMANENT? OR IS THE WORK WE DO ON OURSELVES SIMPLY ILLUSION, SIGNIFYING NOTHING? CAN SANNYAS BE PERMANENT CHANGE? First: all efforts to improve yourself are bound to fail, because the one who is making the effort is the problem - the ego. The ego is constantly making efforts to improve: have more money, have a bigger house...
... about, that revolution comes through understanding the ways of the ego. Once you have understood that it is the same ego that was after money, after power, prestige, politics - the same ego is now playing inner games of meditation, enlightenment, and all that nonsense - once you recognize it is the same ego, in that very recognition, a laughter arises in you. You start feeling the ridiculousness of it...
.... You cannot conceive of Buddha's going into a temple and beating moneylenders. But Jesus did it. There were many different activities connected with the great temple of Jerusalem. There was a great moneylending business which exploited the whole country. People would come for an annual gathering and for other gatherings during the year, and obtain money at the temple at a high rate of interest. Then...
... it would be impossible to repay and they would lose everything. The temple was becoming richer and richer: it was religious imperialism. The whole country was poor and suffering, but so much money would be automatically coming into the temple. Then Jesus entered one day with a whip in his hand. He overturned the moneylenders' boards and began to beat the moneylenders. He created chaos in the temple...
... are born again you will not be able to enter into my kingdom of God. And he is absolutely right. You need a new birth; you have to be twice-born. And to be with a master is a rebirth. It is initiation into the inner world. Sixty years you have wasted on the outside, accumulating money, accumulating this and that, trying to be respectable, famous, powerful. Now get out of all those stupid games - no...
... offers - or at least promises to offer. You have known it, and it is only by knowing it that one becomes aware of the deceptiveness of it all. You have seen the illusion - now turn in. Now become a sannyasin! You have been a worldly man up to now. And by a worldly man I simply mean one who is absolutely unaware of himself and is concerned about trivia - money, power, prestige. And I call the person a...
...;Maybe he will ask for much money - that can be given easily - or for some other favor which can be given easily." The king had been waiting a long time for this man. But the condition was very eccentric. The condition was: "While I am playing nobody should move his head. If anybody moves his head, his head has to be cut off. So the audience has to be informed beforehand that people should...
... are writing every day, "Have you forgotten us?" Norwegians, Swedish, Swiss, they are all writing letters, "Beloved Master, when is our turn coming?" When their father died, three brothers inherited one duck each. They decided to sell their ducks and see who could get the most money. The first brother sold his for five dollars. The second sold his for ten dollars. The third...
..., because reason is a mathematical thing. If a dog has behaved in a certain way you can predict he will go on behaving this way. You cannot predict man. And, moreover, he is not rational, because his whole working of the mind is unconscious. He falls in love, he fights, he goes to war, he goes on accumulating money, he goes on being worried without any rationality in it. He is the most mad animal. Only...
... unconscious thing in you, and the sahasrar is the most conscious. These are the two poles. We live around the sex center, move around it. Whatsoever we do is related with sex, howsoever distant it may look. Your earning money, your accumulating wealth, may not look at all related with sex, but they are related. The more wealth you have, the more sex you can have; it becomes more possible. The more power you...
