... - but an ambitious man becomes miserly. Because he is always preparing for the future, he cannot afford to live and share. He is never here-now. If he has money, he has money for the future, not for now. And how can you share in the future? Sharing is possible only in the present. He has money for his old age. Or there are people who have their character, virtue, for the future life, for paradise. How...
... musician, I can help you, but don't think in terms of becoming world-famous. If you want to be a better poet, I can help you, but don't think in terms of Nobel prizes. If you want to be a good painter, I can help you - I help creativity. But creativity has nothing to do with name and fame, success and money. And I am not saying that if they come then you have to renounce them, if they come it is okay...
.... And you are thinking that now you are in a strange city, nobody knows you - where are you going to eat? you don't have any money. And the money is there, just you have forgotten the purse. Or you may have misplaced it; you go on looking in the left-side pocket and it may be in the right-side pocket. And again and again you look, and again and again you feel more and more afraid, insecure - what is...
... community; its trust is in the individual. Tantra believes in you. I have heard... It happened in a Billy Graham revival meeting. A guy was collecting donations, and then he started to split with the money. Two policemen caught him red-handed in time. They brought him to Billy Graham's feet. Naturally, Billy Graham was very angry, and said to the man 'This money belongs to God... and what were you trying...
... to do? Trying to cheat God?' The man said 'Sir, I took the money in an effort to get closer to God - by eliminating the middleman, of course.' The middleman is not needed at all. The real Master never tries to become the middleman - he is not. He helps you not to reach to God, he helps you only to become aware of that which is already there. He is not a bridge between you and God, he is just a...
... create another Vatican. And I have told my sannyasins to choose people who are coming from super-rich families, so money does not drive them crazy, one thing. They know money perfectly well. Choose very educated people, intelligent, creative people, so that if they want to become famous they need not do criminal acts. They can be creative and be famous. A person who cannot be creative and wants to be...
... America can be reduced to its tenth. Just because the labor is so cheap you can create everything in India. The poor will be fed, the unemployed will have employment, and you will have cheap things as good as you are having them now, unnecessarily paying so much money. And in the same way everything is. Just few months before in Europe, they drowned thousands of tons of oranges and other fruits into the...
... love is the nearest thing in your experience in which you are relaxed. If you cannot love, it is impossible for you to relax. If you can relax, your life will become a loving life. A tense man cannot love. Why? A tense man always lives with purposes. He can earn money, but he cannot love because love is purposeless. Love is not a commodity. You cannot accumulate it; you cannot make a bank balance of...
... it; you cannot strengthen your ego out of it. Really, love is the most absurd act, with no meaning beyond it, no purpose beyond it. It exists in itself, not for anything else. You earn money FOR something - it is a means. You build a house for someone to live in - it is a means. Love is not a means. Why do you love? For what do you love? Love is the end in itself. That is why a mind that is...
... calculative, logical, a mind that thinks in terms of purpose, cannot love. And the mind that always thinks in terms of purpose will be tense, because purpose can only be fulfilled in the future, never here and now. You are building a house - you cannot live in it just now, you will have to build it first. You can live in it in the future, not now. You earn money - the bank balance will be created in the...
... money to do it. The more money you have, the more you feel you have freedom, you can do anything you like. But when you have all the money and you can do all that you wish, imagine, dream about, suddenly you feel this freedom is superficial, because inside your being knows well that you are powerless and that anything can attract you. You are impressed, influenced, possessed by things and persons...
... of before and after? THIS very moment... let it sink in you. And all that is needed on your part is total receptivity. Fling all doors open, let the sun come in, aud the wind and the rain. Enlightenment is not like money, is not like political power. It is not like anything that you know in life -- it is absolutely unlike anything that you have known or will ever know. It is unique in the sense...
... same root. They both come from MAN -- MAN is Sanskrit for mind. And that which keeps mind running is called 'mantra', that which keeps nourishing mind is called 'mantra'. So somebody's mantra is money -- he thinks of money, that is his mantra. Somebody's mantra is politics -- he thinks of politics, that is his mantra. And somebody simply repeats "Rama, Rama, Rama" -- that is his mantra. But...
... BEGINNING OF TRUST? YES, MUKTI GANDHA, this is the beginning of trust, the beginning of yea-saying, the beginning of a great understanding that all that is going to happen is going to happen, and you are not to do it. You have to be alert and passive, you have to be watchful and receptive. This is the whole secret of life. Small things need to be done -- if you want more money, the money is not going to...
... pocketbook and had no money to pay the fare. The meter now read $7.50. "Mista driver," she cried. "You betta stop. I no canna pay you!" "Oh, that's all right," said the cabbie. "I'll just pull down a dark street, get in the back seat with you, take off your panties...." "Mista, you gonna get gypped," said the Italian lady. "My panties only cost-a forty...
... -- more than anything else! Money will not drive you so crazy, nor will politics, because they are all graspable. If you try hard you can get as much money as you want; just a little effort, a little cunningness, a little calculativeness -- something Jewish in your blood -- and you can manage. Something of the insane in you and you can become a politician. When Adolf Hitler started, nobody ever thought...
... front of my lover. The third time when I took money for it. And the fourth time when I paid someone for it. And you?" The man is silent for a moment and then says, "I blushed twice. The first time when I couldn't do it the second time. And the second time when I couldn't do it the first time." I missed again! I am not a good archer because I don't believe in targets and goals, so my...
... biology, your chemistry, your psychology, your hormones? Who is deciding your life? Are you? - you as a conscious being? A drunk walked into a bar in Glasgow and asked, "Was I in here last night?" "Yes, you were," replied the barmaid. "Did I spend much money?" "About thirty pounds." "Thank God - I thought I'd lost it!" Angus was staggering home after a...
... else can be friendly, they only pretend. How can competitors be friendly? Deep down they are enemies because everybody is coveting the same things. You are greedy for money, your friend is also greedy for money. How can you be friendly? Impossible. All friendship is bogus, phony. You want to be the prime minister and your friend also wants to be the prime minister. Who does not want to be the prime...
