.... Thirty-three thousand principles! Following all those principles is out of the question; I cannot even remember them. And if you are following thirty-three thousand principles in such a small life, where will you find time to live or to breathe? Those thirty-three thousand principles will kill you from all sides." But all religions have done that. They have given you guidelines without knowing you...

... psychiatry. Siddha is here - he is a psychiatrist. But for money people can commit suicide, people can murder, people can do any crime. They can even do psychiatry, psychoanalysis! This patient was really driving the psychoanalyst crazy. But he was paying, he was never late in his payments; his checks were exactly on time. He would never be late even for one moment; at the exact time he would enter in...

... about employment? Just to be known as his disciple will be enough. Even this employment exchange officer will come and touch our feet. We are coming!" It was a strange lot. The boy was worried: "I don't think that these people that I am taking .... He will hit me, but what can I do? Where can I find kings and great scholars in this small village? And there is no time for me to go to Varanasi...
... the highest peak of God's creation. God created man in His own image - what can be higher than that? And what has man been doing? In three thousand years, five thousand wars! The whole of history is a history of murder, rape, crime - and murder, rape and crime in the name of God. Millions of people have been killed, burned alive in the name of God. And God created man in His own image! So you can...

... already in such a situation that if we don't cut its population by half it is going to die. There will be no need for a third world war: just the population itself will be enough to kill everybody, to starve everybody. And God is continually sending people... either He has no idea... that at least send a small piece of land with each child, or try some new way so there is nobody hungry. Rather than real...
... child. They will mess around... they may even kill the woman! So it was economically, politically significant that men should marry more women, and people were stealing women from each other's tribes. It was more significant to steal a woman than a man because man is not so reproductive; one man is enough to serve many women and one man can produce many children. But now the whole thing has changed...

... dependent on man she has had to listen to whatsoever nonsense he says. Just try one night to sleep with your child in the bed: either you will kill the child or you will commit suicide. As far as I am concerned I know perfectly well I cannot sleep in the same room where a child is sleeping, because children have strange ideas: in the day they will sleep and in the night they will create trouble! It is the...

... have to use tissue paper - which Indians don't use and at that time nobody was aware of - or he will have to use a toilet, a septic tank, but there was no septic tank in those days, and even if there were he would not have used it because the water in the septic tank, your turd falling into the water, can kill small germs in the water! Jaina scriptures say: Never defecate on wet ground, never...
... equality. 'I am also a human being. If you hit me, then I will hit you. I am not a god, I cannot forgive you.' All those who have been trying to forgive are very subtle egoists. They are enjoying reducing the other person almost to an animal. That is worse than hitting the man back hard! Just behave like man to man." And you can watch it: the person who gives his other cheek - you can see in his...

... could not leave. By sunset he had made the big trench. And Gurdjieff said, "This is only half the work: now you fill it, and then you can go and sleep." This was too much. Through great effort the whole day, against all temptations to leave it, he managed, because of Gurdjieff's presence, to continue, knowing one thing, that it could not kill him: "I cannot die by just not eating for...
... have passed in Soviet Russia, and the communist revolution has not yet been able to dissolve the dictatorship. Lenin was thinking that ten or fifteen years at the most would be enough, because by that time we would have equalized everybody, distributed wealth equally - then there would be no need for a government. But after fifteen years they found that the moment you remove the enforced state...

... individual; and the reason is that they are still not aware that however long the enforced state lasts - seventy or seven hundred years - it will not make any difference. The moment you remove control, there will be a few people who know how to be rich, and there will be a few people who know how to be poor. And they will simply start the whole thing again. In the beginning they tried... because Karl...

... brahminism, against Hinduism; but they had to use Hindus for everything. Their shoes are made by the sudras; their toilets are cleaned by the sudras. Their properties have to be protected by the chhatriyas, because they cannot take the sword in their hands. They cannot kill, so they cannot fight, they cannot go to war; they have their security force in the warrior race. And finally their priests - the...
..., you cannot reduce her to a thing. She has to be dependent on you. And do you think anybody who has to be dependent on you will love you? Every woman wants to kill the husband. It is another matter that she does not kill him - because if she kills him, what will she do? She is not educated, she has no experience of the society, she has no way of earning. The husband - every husband, I don't make any...

... remember - even though you have to follow the laws of the society; otherwise they will imprison you and punish you and kill you... but remember, friendship is so valuable that whatsoever the consequence, remain friends even with your wife, even with your husband, and allow absolute and total freedom to each other. I don't see any problem. If I love a woman, and one day she says that she has fallen in...
... -- Buddha, Mahavir -- they have emphasized the fact. Not because of any concept of nonviolence -- that is a secondary thing -- but because if you really want to move in deep meditation your body needs to be weightless, natural, flowing. Your body needs to be unloaded; and a nonvegetarian's body is very much loaded. Just watch what happens when you eat meat: when you kill an animal what happens to the...

... animal when he is killed? Of course, nobody wants to be killed. Life wants to prolong itself; the animal is not dying willingly. If somebody kills you, you will not die willingly. If a lion jumps on you and kills you, what will happen to your mind? The same happens when you kill a lion. Agony, fear, death, anguish, anxiety, anger, violence, sadness -- all these things happen to the animal. All over his...

... that poison creates a situation where you can be really violent and kill somebody. The energy moves towards your hands; the energy moves towards your teeth -- these are the two places from where animals become violent. Man is part of the animal kingdom. When you are angry, energy is released -- it comes to the hands and to the teeth, to the jaw -- but you live in a human society and it is not always...
... everyone. If they had listened to me at that time, today India would have been rich, because when I started telling people, "This growth of your population is going to kill you, to destroy you," there were only four hundred million people in India. After thirty years there are nine hundred million people; five hundred million people could have been prevented, and the country would not be...

... that she has no soul, so the question of pain does not arise. If you destroy your furniture do you think the furniture will go through great suffering? that there will be pain? If you slap the table do you think there will be tears? China, for centuries, has categorized woman with things; hence, in the Chinese morality, to murder your own wife is not a crime. It is your wife, it is your possession...

... cannot speak the truth?" The chief judge said, "Then you are putting me into such a helpless situation that the only alternative is to kill you by giving you poison." Socrates said, "That seems to be the best out of all the alternatives you have proposed, because at least I can die with dignity, and I will be remembered with dignity." And certainly Greece has not produced...
... HIM WITH HOURS TO KILL? SEEK HIM ALWAYS WITH HOURS TO LIVE. FOR IT IS HIS TO FILL YOUR NEED, BUT NOT YOUR EMPTINESS. AND IN THE SWEETNESS OF FRIENDSHIP LET THERE BE LAUGHTER, AND SHARING OF PLEASURES. FOR IN THE DEW OF LITTLE THINGS THE HEART FINDS ITS MORNING AND IS REFRESHED. My eyes become full of tears when I see that Kahlil Gibran is only sometimes a vehicle of godliness, of truth - but not...

.... FOR WHAT IS YOUR FRIEND THAT YOU SHOULD SEEK HIM WITH HOURS TO KILL? All friends are doing that - they are killing each others' hours, because they are both empty, and they don't know how to be alone, how to enjoy being alone. SEEK HIM ALWAYS WITH HOURS TO LIVE. Not to kill time but with hours to live. This is great, glorious. But he seems to be like a pendulum of a clock that goes on moving from...
... twenty years. If you want him to be released without trial then you have to accept at least two crimes. The choice is clear for you." For twelve days my attorneys had been running from one jail to another - because they were taking me from one jail to another every day, changing the jails, trying to find some indirect way to kill me. They put me in a cell with a man who was going to die of AIDS...

... idiot that I can't see your game? - if I sign under the name ?David Washington' you can kill me, and nobody will be able even to find a trace of where I disappeared because I never entered your jail." I said, "I am not going to write anybody else's name. But if you are feeling tired - I can see it is the middle of the night, the whole day working... you must be feeling tired - you can leave...

... usual self. And if you remember that your wife is going through her period, don't fight with her. Just take it for granted that she will be angry, she will nag, she will throw plates, she will throw pillows, she will do all kinds of nasty things to you. All you have to do is to save yourself from being hit; and enjoy - because what can the poor woman do? She is suffering from her period; she is under...
