But could you also say the same regarding the [next] words, foot in foot? — It may be replied that at the School of R.

Love gives richness, and a richness that is inexhaustible, a richness that is eternal, a richness that even death cannot...
.... These are my suggestions. I am not going to do anything about it. Those people who are in power, if they understand it, they may do it. That is not my work. My concern is with people who want to grow spiritually. That became the problem in America with me. People don't have any sense of spiritual growth. All they know is material accumulation - more money, more comfort, more luxury. I am not against...
... from Kutch, Gujarat, to say that the property should not be sold to me. But the property was lying dead, and the prince needed money, so he was willing - even against Desai's wishes - to sell it to me. Then he found a way: the air force decided that it was too close to Pakistan. Since thousands of foreigners would be there with me, it would be dangerous for the country. So the air force prevented it...
... sitting in a Catskill hotel bragging about their children. "My son is a doctor," said Mrs. Fletcher, "and he's an internist, a surgeon and a specialist.

... whether anything is wrong or right -- your search is for the truth, for peace and silence. And you are getting so much upset. Your very anguish shows that your own mind is shattered. It is not a question of Jaina scriptures, or the Jaina tradition, it is a question of your mind. "You are collecting all this money, not for Jaina scriptures but to save your sanity; otherwise you would go insane. You...
... far as seeing is concerned, it is absolutely certain. His values are different. He may collect sea shells on the beach and the parents will say, "Throw them away. Why are you wasting your time?" And for him they were so beautiful. He can see the difference; he can see that their values are different. The parents are running after money -- he wants to collect butterflies. He can't see why...
... you are so interested in money; what you are going to do with it? His parents cannot see what he is going to do with these butterflies, or these flowers. Every child comes to know this, that there are differences. The only question is: he is afraid to assert that he is right. As far as he is concerned, he should be left alone. It is a question of just a little courage, which is also not missing in...
... full stop. And you will not recognize that this is you, or that one day you were like this, that this is your old photograph. One day you will disappear on a funeral pyre -- just into nothingness, as smoke. Don't get attached to anything. This attachment takes you away from your real being; you become focused on the thing to which you are attached. Your awareness gets lost in things, in money, in...
... consciousness -- not the body, not the mind, not the heart, not your money, not your prestige, not your power, not your house, but just pure consciousness -- then you can pass through the barrier of death unscratched. Then death cannot make even a dent in you. Death has power over you only if you are attached. You are not afraid of death. The basic psychology is you are afraid of death because it will take...
... you away from all your attachments. If it were possible that you could take your wife and your children and your house and your money and your power and everything that you think belongs to you, with yourself when you are dying, I don't think you would be afraid. You would rejoice; a great adventure -- going with the whole caravan. But death cuts everything away from you, leaves you utterly naked...
... mine field!" Adolf, the greatest conqueror of all times, asks Satan for a forty-eight-hour holiday on earth. After some hesitation, his wish is granted. However, he is back in hell after only twenty-four hours. His comment: "Everything is topsy-turvy on earth. The Jews are into wars and the Germans are into money making!" But things are changing, Adam Shapira. The time for a great...
... change has come. The Jews have suffered much, but the basic cause is within themselves. Their rejection of Jesus has been the major part of their suffering. Secondly, they became extroverts, interested only in money and power; they lost their interiority. And any man who loses his inner world becomes shallow, empty, hollow, meaningless. You ask me: "Is there any fate for a nation?" No, we...
... mathematics paper. They asked us to add two and two -- I said five!" he announced proudly. "But Kazowinsky, two and two are four, not five!" said the inspector. "I know that now," he grinned, "but I was the closest!" A Polack answered a nationwide quiz program that gave away money even to the dumbest people.
