... and jerks. Their life, therefore, does not become sentient idols. This is the misery of life, the affliction and the distress. This alone, I say, is living death. 198. There is a friend whom I have known for years. Formerly he ran the race for money; now he is in the race for religion. The race is the same, but whereas formerly he was a householder, now he is an ascetic who has renounced everything...
.... In fact, more people will deceive you because you become vulnerable. If you trust, more people will deceive you, but nobody can make you miserable; that's the point to understand. They can deceive, they can steal things from you, they can borrow money and they will never return - but nobody can make you miserable - that becomes impossible. Even if they kill you, they cannot make you miserable. You...
...; the world needs engineers. If you are needed you are valuable; if you are not needed you don't carry any value. But if you want to be a poet, be a poet. You may be a beggar. Good. You may not get very rich out of it -- don't worry about it, because you may become a great engineer and you may earn much money, but you will never have any fulfillment. You will always hanker, your inner being will...
... become the friend. After one has attained to samadhi, one has to attain to compassion. Compassion is the criterion whether your samadhi is true or not. Remember, don't be a miser; because habits persist. If in the outside world you are a miser and you cling to things, to money and this and that; when samadhi arises in you, you will cling to samadhi. The clinging will continue - and the clinging has to...
... promising to you. If you are after money, and the son wants to renounce the world, he will not be promising to you; he will be just the opposite. When you call somebody promising, you relate him to your own desires. When I say, "You are promise," I mean you have a tremendous potentiality to grow, to flower - whatsoever the direction, whatsoever direction you choose to move. Whenever you are in...
... to God - mind you there is a lot of copper in a poor parish." So far the rabbi had kept silent, but when pressed said, "Well, I put all the collection money in a blanket and I toss it all up in the air. What God wants he keeps, and what he does not want I keep." Don't be cunning - don't be the rabbi. Because in the end only you will be at a loss, not God. Whatsoever comes on your way...
... worth answering. Your problem should have your signature on it. It should come out of your life, out of the struggle, challenge, response, out of your own confrontation. I have heard: So finally the marriage broker induced Cohen to meet this girl. After all she was alleged to be beautiful, talented, educated, young, and with pots of money. Cohen met her, liked her, married her. A day later he finds...
... seasoning. Fruit will come sooner but those fruits will not be so mature; they will lack something - they are artificial. Nature is not in a hurry. Remember: mind is always in a hurry, nature is never in a hurry - nature waits and waits, it is eternal. There is no need to be in a hurry; life goes on and on and on, it is an eternity. But for mind time is short, so mind says, "Time is money." Life...
... you have it in mind to improve upon yourself: you will never be happy and you will never grow. At the most you can become a very very artificial thing. I have heard: A man who had married an old maid for her money took his bride on a honeymoon. They had obtained two berths on a deluxe train going to the Rockies, and she of course occupied the lower. In their private compartment, all was cozy. She...
... first! What is essential? The effect is not essential - the cause is. The other is not essential - you are. Whatsoever is happening today, you have managed somehow - unaware, unconscious, but you have sown the seeds of it; now you have to reap it. People go on thinking that if they can manage the nonessential, the essential will come. For example, people think if they can earn enough money they will...
