... possessed a single thing -- no bank account. I have been in America for five years but I have not seen a single dollar bill, I have not touched money. People have seen me in Rolls Royces -- they were not mine; they belonged to the commune. Everything belonged to the commune and they simply made it available for me to be used. And the moment I left America... I have not brought a single thing from there...
... wasted in the kitchen and the children; and the husband's whole life is wasted in earning money the whole day. And then the woman is collecting anger the whole day because all her life she cannot do anything else. So she simply becomes a nagging wife. Every wife is a nagging wife, and every husband is henpecked -- without exception. And the reason is simple, because you have created the situation...
... not respectful towards that old man. And the reason was that that old man... his name was Chiranjilal Badjate and he was the manager for Jamnalal Bajaj. Jamnalal Bajaj had invited Mahatma Gandhi from Sabarmati, Gujarat to his own place in Wardha, and had made a beautiful ashram for him there. He gave Gandhi a blank check; whatever he wanted to spend, whatever he wanted to do with the money, he could...
... do. He never asked, "Where does the money go? What happens to it?" And because Mahatma Gandhi was in Wardha, all the great freedom fighters in India, writers, poets, were going to see Gandhi, to meet Gandhi. And for them Jamnalal Bajaj had made a special guest house for five hundred people to stay together at one time. Chiranjilal was his manager, so he was the link between Mahatma Gandhi...
... dogmatic, and whatever their discipline is, is based on an inner experience. Mahavira and Buddha continually repeat, "Don't go on in a vicious circle. Just look into your past lives and see whether you have been doing this kind of thing always, for eternity. Do you have any mind or not? any intelligence or not?" Just being reminded that you have been after money for thousands of years and you...
... have attained money in many lives and there was only frustration and nothing else; that you have been after power and you became powerful many times, but after reaching the last rung of the ladder you saw that there is nothing - that you have been befooled by the society, that ambition is nonsense. You are not to be somebody. You are what you are. There is no question of climbing a ladder and you...
... women are the same. You have been seeing all kinds of women, and you cannot see this poor woman who has come from far away? "She has sold all her ornaments - you have left her no other money - to travel just to see you, just to touch your feet, and you are behaving brutally. So if you tell me that you want me to close the doors, then I am leaving you. It is enough! What you did in Varanasi and...
... renouncing was false. And my understanding is, every renouncing is false unless things drop by themselves - whether it is money, whether it is some childhood memory, whether it is some mental problem. Do not try to drop them. In dropping them you are giving them importance. They need to be ignored. Put your whole energy into that which is grown-up in you, which is growing more. When no energy is left for...
... and consolatory that so much money is saved. "The poor fellow himself said it was good; now we can say that we cannot go against his will." But in what other matters have you ever followed his will? A rebel simply lives his life in the moment, with awareness, with no desire to dominate, either while he is living or when he is dead. He does not have any lust for power. He is a scientist of...
... there was nothing. The womb was all, his whole universe, a very tiny experience of the ultimate reality. What happens to the child in the mother's womb happens again to the sage when the whole universe becomes just a womb, and he becomes part of the womb. The child in the mother's womb never worries, "What will happen tomorrow?" He has no money, no bank account, no business, utterly...
... them directly; he will see them at home, at ease, in his album. Whenever I remember the tourists, I see the old women rushing from one place to another -- from Ajanta to Ellora, from Taj Mahal to Kashmir -- in a hurry, because life is short. It is only the Western mind which has created the proverb that time is money. In the East, things go slowly; there is no hurry -- one has the whole of eternity...
... changed. In fact, one life is not all; you have lived many times, and you will live many times more. Hence, live each moment as totally as possible; there is no hurry to jump to another moment. Time is not money, time is inexhaustible; it is available to the poor as much as to the rich. The rich are not richer as far as time is concerned, and the poor are not poorer. Life is an eternal incarnation. What...
... asking for money, that I sent my friend Michael, to get it back, but the postman had already collected it. I can only hope that this letter gets lost in the post! His mother replies: Dear Son, Don't worry, the letter was lost in the post. Your loving mother, Maureen. P.S. I would have enclosed fifty pounds, but the postman has already collected the letter. The Muggins family are gathered around the...
... dinner table one evening, when young Melvin Muggins gets up to make an announcement. "I would like to take this opportunity," begins Melvin, "to tell you all that I am going to marry Hilda Haggard, the girl across the street." "What?" cries his father, Mr. Muggins. "Her family did not leave her any money!" "That's right!" snaps Mrs. Muggins. "And...
... money lies unnecessarily in his basement; he cannot use it. And nobody should be so poor that he has to die because of his poverty. A moderate poverty will bring, without enforcement, a certain equality as far as money is concerned. Zarathustra, perhaps, is the first man in history who is talking about communism and about anarchism. There should not be classes of the rich and the poor, and there is no...
... small human beings. Their taste is only for the very trivial. Their interest is for money, their lust is for power, their greed is for honor, respectability - but they don't have any longing for the stars. They don't have any longing even to discover their own being. TRULY, I TOO HAVE LEARNED TO WAIT, I HAVE LEARNED IT FROM THE VERY HEART, BUT ONLY TO WAIT FOR MYSELF. Zarathustra is saying, "I am...
... also waiting - impatiently waiting, discontentedly waiting - but waiting only for myself. Not for money, not for power, not for honor, but just to know myself and to be myself." AND ABOVE ALL I HAVE LEARNED TO STAND AND TO WALK AND TO RUN AND TO JUMP AND TO CLIMB AND TO DANCE. I am not simply waiting. He says, AND ABOVE ALL I HAVE LEARNED TO STAND AND TO WALK AND TO RUN AND TO JUMP AND TO CLIMB...
... coming kingdom, no matter what it is and even if I do not fully understand it.” They all truly believed in Jesus, even though they did not fully comprehend his teaching. (1544.3) 138:7.4 Jesus now asked them how much money they had among them; he also inquired as to what provision had been made for their families. When it developed that they had hardly sufficient funds to maintain themselves for two...
...) 138:8.5 3. The turning of the water into wine at Cana. Jesus seriously charged them, saying, “Tell no man about the water and the wine.” (1545.7) 138:8.6 They had wonderful times throughout these five or six months during which they worked as fishermen every alternate two weeks, thereby earning enough money to support themselves in the field for each succeeding two weeks of missionary work for the...
