... directions. You are after money, you are dreaming about money; you never look at the people who have money, you don't see them. You are just after money. You think when the money is there everything will be beautiful. Then you will rest and then you will enjoy, and then you will celebrate and sing and dance, and do whatsoever you always wanted to do when there was no money to do it and no opportunity to do...
... it. But have you ever looked at people who have money? They are not dancing, they are not celebrating. They don't look happy. It is possible that sometimes you may come across a beggar who looks happy, but it is impossible to come across a rich man who looks happy. It is almost impossible to find a rich man who is happy. Because the beggar can still dream, that's why he can be happy. The beggar can...
... still hope, that's why he can still be happy. He can believe that tomorrow things will be better, or the day after tomorrow things are going to be better. There is future for the beggar, but for a rich man the whole future has disappeared. He has attained whatsoever he wanted to attain, and there is nothing in it. When the money is piled up, he suddenly feels frustrated. Whatsoever he was seeing in...
... the money, now he can no longer find in it. That dream has disappeared. Man continuously dreams for power, prestige, respectability. And whenever he gets it, there is frustration. The happiest people are those who never attain to their desires. The unhappiest people are those who have succeeded in attaining their desires - then there is frustration. The nature of desire is dreaming, and you can...
... transfiguration. Repression drags you down. It is not repression: it is awareness. Of course, from the outside it may look like repression. You are rushing towards money; suddenly on the road you come across a treasure, and somebody else is passing by. He also looks at it but is not interested. What will you think about that man? You were afraid that he might claim the treasure, he might start asking that it...
... has to be divided in two parts - but he simply goes on, he does not bother about it. You will think either he is mad, or he is a renunciate, he has renounced the world and repressed the desire for money. You cannot understand that there can be a man who cannot see anything in money. You will think it is impossible because you see so much in it. Your whole life seems to be meaningless if there is no...
... money. Money seems to be your whole life. How can you believe that there can be a man for whom money is simply meaningless? Only two are the possibilities: either the man is so stupid that he does not know the difference between money and no money; or he has repressed his desire - he has repressed his desire, his greed, his ambition. When a man like Buddha happens in the world, people interpret it...
... LOAVES.4 IF SHE HAS A LUMP SUM OF MONEY5 [SET ASIDE FOR THE PURCHASE OF SACRIFICES]. IT IS TO BE USED FOR FREE-WILL OFFERINGS;6 IF EARMARKED MONEY,7 THE PRICE OF THE SIN-OFFERING IS TO BE TAKEN TO THE DEAD SEA;8 THE USE OF IT IS FORBIDDEN, BUT INVOLVES NO MALAPPROPRIATION;9 FOR THE SUM SET ASIDE FOR THE BURNT-OFFERING, A BURNT-OFFERING IS TO BE PROVIDED, THE USE OF...
... property. v. Lev. V, 15. Heb. me'ilah, the diversion of sacred or priestly things to secular or lay uses. E.V. uses 'trespass', but 'mal-appropriate' expresses better the sense of the Hebrew word (cf. N.E.D.). Thus earmarked money is treated in the manner prescribed for sacrifices. By declaring that if she sets aside his animals without his consent, they do not remain sacred at all. They ought to remain...
... affirmed that whatever a woman acquires becomes her husband's? — R. Papa replied: She saved it out of her housekeeping money.2 Another possibility is that it was given to her by a third person with the proviso that her husband should have no control over it. THE BURNT-OFFERING IS TO BE OFFERED AS AN [ORDINARY] BURNT-OFFERING, AND THE PEACE-OFFERING IS TO BE OFFERED [etc.]. Samuel said to...
... [this of] 'the one after death'? — For we have learnt: Should a man set aside money for his nazirite offerings, the use of it is forbidden but involves no malappropriation since it may all be expended on the purchase of a peace-offering.8 If he should die, monies not earmarked are to be used for providing freewill-offerings, whilst with regard to earmarked monies, the price of the sin...
.... ['If he should die,] and have a lump sum of money it is to be used for providing free-will offerings'.18 - To Next Folio - Original footnotes renumbered. See Structure of the Talmud Files The transference is thus provisional, and this case is not the same as that of the second clause. Lit., 'scraped it off her dough.' [Lit., 'sit on your legs.' with reference to their custom of sitting on the ground...
... sprinkling of its blood, v. Me'il, 6b. For the other offerings extra money could be provided. Me'il III, 2. For the owner is dead and no further atonement is necessary. Because the atonement has already been made, and so here too loaves are not required. So BaH, cf. Men. 48b. The prescribed peace-offering for a nazirite is a ram of the second year. And he must offer another beast. V. supra p. 85, n. 10. V...
... have never loved. They will always be afraid of death. Look at misers: they will always be afraid of death. And misers are those persons who have not loved anyone because if you can love a person you will never love money. Money is a substitute. When you cannot love an individual, when you cannot love a live person, you love dead money. Misers, those who go on clinging to their possessions, are not...
... even acquainted with what love is. Their whole love has gone to dead money. And why has it gone? There are deeper connections. A person who is too much attached to money will be afraid of death. Really, a person who is afraid of death will love money too much because money seems to be a protection against death. If you have money you feel protected. If you do not have any money you feel unprotected...
.... Death can occur and you cannot do anything. With money you feel that you can do something. Money will be helpful. A person who loves will not love money because a person who loves will not be afraid of death. And if a person is not afraid of death, there cannot be any clinging, attachment, mad obsession with money. It is impossible. If you can love, then you will accept death very easily. It will be a...
.... Salome became a great admirer of Jesus. She loved him as she loved her own sons, James, John, and David, while her four daughters looked upon Jesus as their elder brother. Jesus often went out fishing with James, John, and David, and they learned that he was an experienced fisherman as well as an expert boatbuilder. (1420.3) 129:1.6 All this year Jesus sent money each month to James. He returned to...
...) (1421.6) 129:2.1 In March, A.D. 22, Jesus took leave of Zebedee and of Capernaum. He asked for a small sum of money to defray his expenses to Jerusalem. While working with Zebedee he had drawn only small sums of money, which each month he would send to the family at Nazareth. One month Joseph would come down to Capernaum for the money; the next month Jude would come over to Capernaum, get the money from...
... Zebedee. (1421.8) 129:2.3 Before leaving Capernaum, Jesus had a long talk with his new-found friend and close companion, John Zebedee. He told John that he contemplated traveling extensively until “my hour shall come” and asked John to act in his stead in the matter of sending some money to the family at Nazareth each month until the funds due him should be exhausted. And John made him this promise: “My...
... Teacher, go about your business, do your work in the world; I will act for you in this or any other matter, and I will watch over your family even as I would foster my own mother and care for my own brothers and sisters. I will disburse your funds which my father holds as you have directed and as they may be needed, and when your money has been expended, if I do not receive more from you, and if your...
... mother is in need, then will I share my own earnings with her. Go your way in peace. I will act in your stead in all these matters.” (1422.1) 129:2.4 Therefore, after Jesus had departed for Jerusalem, John consulted with his father, Zebedee, regarding the money due Jesus, and he was surprised that it was such a large sum. As Jesus had left the matter so entirely in their hands, they agreed that it...
... would be the better plan to invest these funds in property and use the income for assisting the family at Nazareth; and since Zebedee knew of a little house in Capernaum which carried a mortgage and was for sale, he directed John to buy this house with Jesus’ money and hold the title in trust for his friend. And John did as his father advised him. For two years the rent of this house was applied on...
... the Orient proposed to advance to Jesus the wages of one year so that he could intrust such funds to his friends for the safeguarding of his family against want. And Jesus agreed to make the trip. (1423.1) 129:2.10 Jesus turned this large sum over to John the son of Zebedee. And you have been told how John applied this money toward the liquidation of the mortgage on the Capernaum property. Jesus...
... purchased to plough or to perform similar service. The sale, therefore, took place under false pretences, and is consequently invalid, and the seller must return the purchase money. Samuel is of the opinion that, in money matters, general practice is no determining factor in the validity of the sale. The seller, therefore, can claim that, despite the general practice, he has sold him the ox, not for...

... movables. Which is always kept in its place on the ground. It can be removed from its place since it is not actually fixed to the ground. Though, as regards Biblical laws, slaves are regarded as 'land' or 'real estate' as, e.g., in the case of oaths and acquisition by means of money, deed and possession, the question here is whether in the course of ordinary conversation people describe a slave as 'real...
... [regarded as] a reservation.20 [If a person]21 said, 'My property [shall be given] to X', slave[s] are included,22 for we learnt: If one gave all his property to his slave in writing, [the latter] goes forth [as] a free man.23 Land is described [as] property; for we learnt: Property which has a security24 may be acquired by means of money, deed and possession.25 A cloak is...

... No one jests in the hour of [his] death, and the words of a dying man are regarded [legally] as written and delivered.24 MISHNAH.

ISHMAEL, WHO DECIDED THAT [THE DEBT MAY] BE RECOVERED FROM [THE GUARANTOR'S] FREE PROPERTY. BEN NANNUS [HOWEVER] SAID...

[IF THE GUARANTOR SAID], "LEND HIM [A SUM OF MONEY] AND I WILL REPAY [IT] TO YOU", HE IS LIABLE, SINCE THE LOAN WAS MADE THROUGH TRUST IN HIM. R.

... is not [sufficiently] known.20 Did Rabbah, however, give such [a ruling]?21 Surely, Rabbah said: If land was collected22 he23 receives [a double portion,24 but] if money was collected, he does not, and R. Nahman said: If money was collected he has [a double portion]!25 And if it be suggested that [the statement] of Rabbah should be transposed to 'Ulla and that of 'Ulla...
... the presence of witnesses receives due publicity, and intending buyers are well aware of its existence. V. B.M. 114b. No man would consent to lend any money if no land security were available.

Because...
..., according to 'Ulla, the debtor's landed property is pledged to the creditor Biblically. Who, as reported supra 124b, stated that a firstborn son takes a double portion in a loan. But maintains that, consistent with his view here that the hypothecary obligation is not Biblical, a firstborn son does not receive a double portion in a loan that was due to his deceased father, whether money or land was...

... - and by the evening the psychologist came to enquire what happened. The boss was crying and he said 'You destroyed my whole business!' 'But' he said 'what happened?' He said 'What happened! My typist escaped with the receptionist, the cashier has taken all the money, and the office boy wanted to murder me. All finished! They said "Do it today. Why are you waiting? Tomorrow never comes."...
... imagine possessing herself. She has been possessed like a thing; she has been completely dispossessed from her centre, hence she has become so interested in things. She continuously thinks about things: 'Have more money, have a bigger house, have a bigger car, ornaments, jewels, diamonds, this and that... go on having.' The woman seems to be almost crazy. Why? She has been completely dispossessed by man...
... through meditation. Money and meditation are the two directions. If you want to possess things money; if you want to possess yourself - meditation. And if you possess yourself, money loses all meaning. I am not saying that you will renounce money, I am not saying that you will not earn money, but it loses all meaning. Then it is fun, then it is a utility; then you earn and you spend, then you are not a...
... miser; then it is a good medium of exchange - very helpful, but nothing more. It is not your soul, it is not your god. Ordinarily money seems to be the only god in the world. People look on money as they look on God: they pray. In India... you will be surprised; they say that India is a religious country, but in fact you cannot find a more materialistic country anywhere. This is one of the most...
... materialistic countries - they worship money. They have a festival, DIWALI, then they worship money - exactly, they worship. They pile up money and worship it like God with MANTRAS, chanting, and a priest offering flowers to the money. When you possess yourself you use money, you don't allow money to use you. So this is just indicative of your becoming a little alert. Everybody is deeply interested in things...
... which means "one who lives a private life." One who has his own idiom of life, that is the idiot. The world is going one way and you are going another: then you are an idiot. The whole existence moving in one way and you have your own private goal! A man who is after money is an idiot, because the sun is not after money, the moon is not after money, trees are not after money, animals are not...
... after money - rivers, mountains, they are not so idiotic. The whole existence lives without money and a man is mad after money. He suffers from idiocy, the greatest disease there is: he has a private goal. If someday he comes to face God and God asks him, "What were you seeking?" and he says, "Money," God will not be able to understand what he means by "money." He may not...
... ever have heard the word "money." It will be very difficult to explain to him. Some great economist maybe - Adam Smith or Ricardo or Galbraith or somebody - may be able to explain, but I'm suspicious. God will not be able to understand what money is.

... silent as the tree. You start feeling. Your heart throbs with a new vitality and a new vibe... and there is bliss. And you are so fulfilled and so contented. The tree has not given you anything. The tree is very poor in that way. What can a tree give to a human being? It cannot give you money, it cannot give you power. It cannot give anything that you would like to have, but suddenly, just sitting by...
