.... Ramakrishna tapped the man on the shoulder and said, "What are you doing?" He said, "Nothing. Just I check whether the gold is real or not and then I count: three hundred thirty-nine, three hundred forty, three hundred forty-one..." Ramakrishna said, "You idiot. When somebody is collecting money, certainly he checks whether it is real gold or not and he also counts. But when you are...
...." The friend said, "That's great, but what was the thing that you had doubts about?" He said, "I am a woman. In these three years the psychoanalyst has convinced me, and I have convinced him that we both are women. And we are enjoying the company." Psychoanalysis has not helped anybody. Gurdjieff was not interested in wasting your time and your money. What psychoanalysis can...
..., lady," replies the conductor, "I only want your money, not a confession!" There is a nasty accident at the London lunatic asylum, when one of the inmates falls down the well. Loony Larry sees the situation and suddenly, to everyone's amazement, lowers himself down to the water on the end of a rope. After an incredible effort, Loony Larry manages to pull his fellow inmate out. The media...
... through struggle. You can succeed in earning money, but that's not success at all. You can succeed in becoming a richard nixon or something, that's not success at all. But you cannot become a jesus or a buddha. You can accumulate many possessions, bank balances, but you will remain unhappy. You will never know what bliss is. You will miss the whole meaning of life.

... this land belongs into reservations. The reservation is nothing but the American name for concentration camps - yes, without barbed wire. You have a more sophisticated way: you give those Red Indians pensions. Now, people who have nothing to do, and get enough money, what do you expect them to do? They will gamble, they will drink, they will fight. They are all drunkards, gamblers - rowdy. These...
... Jews have been tortured for two thousand years because they crucified Jesus, and now this is a crucifixion for all the Jews - Israel. They have poured their money into it, they have come from faraway lands, they have been working hard, because it is a desert; and besides there is continuous harassment from the Mohammedans who are not going to accept that Israel is not theirs. On their maps they still...
... surprised: the world is full of hilarious people, but nobody is taking note. Otherwise you need not go and waste your money - just sit by the side of the road and watch the show. Don't be bothered by any experiences that people who are taking drugs will tell you about. Meditation is not concerned with experiences but with the experiencer. Experiences are outside things. Meditation is concerned with you...
... ghosts! The bungalow that I had rented was called a ghost bungalow. I approached the owner; he said, "If you simply live there, there is no need for any rent. Just take care of my bungalow, because it has not been maintained. I have put so much money into it, but I had never thought that this graveyard would create trouble." So he gave me the bungalow free. I started Dynamic Meditation, and...
... two years later I went to stay with my daughter in Hollywood. Yes, she is married to a movie star - lots of money, you can imagine! They were living in a posh hotel in Beverly Hills, with all the comforts. Lots to drink, a room of my own, and I swam in the hotel pool every day. I had it to myself, and I used to swim naked. How about that?" "That's fine, Solly," says Mendel, "but...
..., you should have remained silent rather than using the word 'silence', because the word silence is not silence. "Your mind is full of thoughts.
