... aroused. He had everything, but he did not have the gods' clothes. He had not seen them; he had not even heard of them. The man said. "You don't worry. It will cost you a little, but I will bring them for you." He asked for six months' time. The man was locked in a house in the palace, and armed guards were placed all around him. The man, from time to time, asked for large sums of money. And...

... in the course of six months he was paid many millions of rupees from the treasury. But as he was imprisoned in the palace and so could not escape with the money, the king was undisturbed.

... happiness is possible in any way other than sex. There are people who cannot understand that there is any bliss beyond sex.

... celebrate the occasion in a unique way. Money was no object. The caterer suggested many things: flying the party out to Disneyland, renting out the White House, having the affair in a nuclear-submarine.

... may not be a miracle, it may be just a magical trick, but if somebody is doing a "miracle" wrong people are immediately attracted. The vast mob comes running.

... session one feels a certain serenity. It is just the serenity that comes by talking. And then if you go on and on for three or four or five years of psychoanalysis, it costs a lot of money. That too helps, that too makes you calm down. Whenever a costly medicine is given to you it works better than a cheap medicine. The cheaper may have been better, but that doesn't matter. Cost matters. When you pay...
..., this is strange. And if somebody else feels bored with you, you feel very hurt, but you yourself feel bored with yourself! And everybody is the same: nobody feels good being alone. Man is constantly escaping from himself; that is his whole activity. In business, chasing money, or in politics, chasing power, a constant need to be amused is there, to be entertained is there. Go to the football match or...

..., split, schizophrenic. But the ego is very subtle. You rush after money, you become frustrated; one day you say, "It is nonsense, only frustration comes. Now I don't want to become extraordinary; I have tried enough. Now I will try to become ordinary. " But trying continues - the ego has deceived you. A vain lion wanted to find out why the other animals were not as beautiful as he. First he...
... play with it but don't become attached to it, otherwise you will suffer. And that's why people are suffering: they become attached to soap bubbles. They have given different names to the soap bubbles. Somebody calls it love, somebody calls it money, somebody calls it power, somebody calls it life, prestige, and so on, so forth - but they are all soap bubbles. Any moment, they will be gone, and you...

... came across a very beautiful story: Samuel Pinsky was on a camping expedition when he got stranded in a small town.

At last he had the good fortune to come across a small circus, the owner of which was of his own race. Sammy immediately applied for a...
... SO, OSHO? I will tell you one story: A man was arraigned before an Arkansas justice on a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses. The judge looked at him thoughtfully. "Your name is Jim Moore?" "Yes, sir." "You are charged with a crime that merits a long term in the penitentiary?" "Yes, sir." "You are guilty of that crime?" The man squared...

... his shoulders doggedly. "I am." "You ask me for mercy?" "No, sir." The judge smiled grimly. "You have had a great deal of trouble within the last two years?" "I have." "You have often wished you were dead?" "I have, please Your Honor." "You wanted to steal enough money to take you far away from Arkansas?" "You are...
... so poor he could not manage to purchase canvases, colors, brushes to paint. He was given enough money from his brother so that he could live, exactly enough so that he could live, not a single pai more. And what was he doing for years? - for four days of the week he would eat and three days he would fast and save money to paint. He went mad. He could not paint all that was clamoring, boiling in his...
... misunderstand it. You don't have any experience of the beyond; communication is not possible." And you can see how difficult it is to communicate. I say one thing, you will understand another. People will understand according to their level of understanding. A playboy who had squandered a fortune was asked what he had done with all his money. He answered, "Some went for liquor and fast automobiles...

... darkness of existence. This is a task to be done, this is a way of growth. To be here on the earth simply means that God has given an opportunity to you to grow. This earth is a challenge. Accept the challenge, encounter life: don't escape.

It is a constant hankering for more. If you have money, it desires MORE money; if you have power, it desires more power; if you have knowledge, it desires more knowledge. It is the same process, objects differ but the process...
.... One who is searching for money knows only the language of money, and one who is searching for peace has a different kind of language.
