... whole world. The real man who reached first the world will never know because he was just a servant: Tensing, a Nepalese, a poor man. He reached first... because it was a very unsafe place. Hundreds of people had died within a hundred years just trying to reach the top of Everest. Of course the man who was arranging and investing money in it would not take the risk of being first because Everest is...

... reach the top of Everest, Hillary, stood there ready to pose for a picture. And he put up the flags of Britain, India, and Nepal, because all three countries were concerned. So three flags he left there, but he was there not more than ten minutes; to be there longer was dangerous. But the poor man who had really reached first, history will never know. And of course Hillary gave him enough money to...

... always the commander who never really fights, who remains far behind the soldiers, keeping enough distance so that in any dangerous situation he will be the first to move away from the dangerous spot. But when victory comes then he gets medals and everything. But this is how the world goes." He said, "We are poor people and we have no complaint because he has given us enough money." Man...
...." The fact was that the Jews were the richest people in Germany, and his eye was on their riches. "Kill the Jews and take all their money and all their factories and all their businesses!" And he convinced the so-called intellectuals of Germany -- even Martin Heidegger, one of the most famous philosophers of this century -- that Jews were the problem. "Because of the Jews, Germany...

... and fragrances of another world -- a peace, a silence, a song, a dance that you have not known in the outside world. But the only way is: go in. Issa wrote: PURE SIMPLICITY MARKS THE ARRIVAL OF SPRING -- A PALE YELLOW SKY. But you have to see it. How many people look at the sky? I have been watching, standing by the side of the road: people are counting money on their fingers and they don't see that...

... the sun is setting and is throwing such psychedelic colors all over the horizon -- and they are counting money. I can see their lips moving. They are talking to somebody who is not present, and the sun is setting with such grandeur. How many people get up early to see the sunrise? How many people watch the immense hypnotic power of the fullmoon night? Do you know, all those who have become...
..., but this is how logic works, this is the conclusion it will reach. Logic will never say that it is because you are closing the fist that the air escapes - if you don't make a fist, the air will still be there. But our intellect will say, "How can there be anything without something to hold it?" Money stays if it is held in a safe, if it is held in a closed fist. But on an open palm, money...

... will not stay for a moment. Even the closed fist is no guarantee of its security, what to say about the open hand! Leave the key to the safe lying around for a single day and the money is gone. The experience of life tells us, "Grab it fast, only then will it be yours." And so we don't know how to catch air, because there the opposite applies. There, if you open the hand, keep it loose, the...
... for the last five years of her life. When she died, she left me all her money. Now I have got to prove that she was of sound mind when she made her will six weeks ago.' That's what happens. First you deny a wise man - that he is wise. You deny that he is enlightened, you deny that he is good. Then when he dies he leaves his whole legacy for you, he leaves all his money in your name. He becomes your...

... hankering for, and they are bored to death, because they have no future. And when there is no future there is no meaning. You have a beautiful car, you have a beautiful house, you have a beautiful job - so what? The question arises 'so what?' But where are you going? In a rut, moving in the same wheel again and again and again. The same morning, the same evening, the same work, the same money pouring in...
... a sinner. Then it is a sort of prostitution. The woman goes on living with you because she has nowhere to go. She goes on living with you now because financially she is dependent on you. But then what is prostitution? It is a financial arrangement. Now there is no more love. If you go to a prostitute and she falls in love with you and refuses to take money, she is no longer a prostitute...

.... Prostitution comes only with the money. When instead of love money bridges two persons, it is prostitution. If you live with a woman with no love and the woman lives with you with no love, only a financial arrangement -- now it will be difficult, where to go, what to do, it seems too insecure so you have to cling and be angry and nag and continuously fight but be together, it is your duty to be together...
... will attain god from prayer? - then you have bought him. What happened to his grace? And if something is received through a cause, when the cause disappears it will also disappear. That which is attained through a cause will be lost when the cause is destroyed. You have accumulated wealth, you worked hard, you competed well in the market and you earned money. But do you think this earned money will...

...... Remember there are two kinds of people in the world, the world can be divided into two types. One type is those who are never satisfied with outside things: we have this house, we need another one; we have this much money, more is needed; this woman is with me, another kind of woman is needed. He is never satisfied with outer things, but he has no dissatisfaction with the inner. One who has no inner...
..., "This is strange. With half my head shaved I will look like a fool!" I said, "But he has not taken any money from you. You can go to another barbershop and you can save half the money."

..., "If the word kanyadan, donation of the daughter, is being used, I will never come back to this family again. Then you can think I am dead." He said, "But this is strange. That word has been used for centuries." I said, "I don't care about the centuries, I care about the meaning of the word. You can donate things, you can donate money - you cannot donate people! And I will not...
... what your were: if you were a thief you will become a good man, if you were amassing wealth you will start giving to charity, but the you within will remain the same. For you the value of money will not change. Money had a certain value for you when you were a thief, and it will remain the same when you become a philanthropist. You certainly don't regard it is dust, for who makes a gift of dust? If...

... gates of heaven! The guard consulted with his associate as to what should be done with this man. His colleague said, "Give him his three paisa and tell him to go to hell!" Can the doors of heaven be opened by money? Whether you hold on to wealth or whether you let it go, its holds the same value in your eyes. Whether you live in the world or run away from it, its hold on you is complete. It...
... will leave everything if need be, but not a jewel.

Remembrance is the precious jewel; let anything else in life drop away, because you know it is not worth a penny. WERE YOU TO LIVE THROUGH FOUR AGES, OR EVEN TEN TIMES MORE, WERE YOU KNOWN ON ALL NINE...

... money, taken so many pains, gone through so much difficulty. Can you let so many years' toil go in vain? And who knows? It might not fall! Perhaps the expert is wrong. Besides, right now it is standing. Who can be sure it will fall?" Such is your case too, like a man who has lost his way and has been told that he left the road far behind. In reading the memoirs of a poet, I particularly liked one...
... simply refused. He would have said, "No!" If you take money to Vinoba Bhave he closes his eyes, and deep down you say, "Now, this is a saint!" But if you bring the money to me I will take the money and I will not even thank you! Then you will be very much shocked: "What kind of man is this?"
