... say it. Don't declare: ?I myself am the ultimate truth. There is no other god; everybody is carrying his god within himself.' Don't say it! I know it, but I have remained quiet because my master said, ?Keep your mouth shut; otherwise they will simply kill you. So what is the point?' " Mansoor said, "I have been trying not to say it, but what to do? People ask questions and I forget, and...
... what is real comes out." So Junnaid was sad. He was serving two purposes by throwing a beautiful rose. First, the masses would think that he is also throwing stones or rotten eggs. In that crowd who knows what is thrown by whom? Secondly, Mansoor will be able to understand that a roseflower has hit his face and that it cannot be from anybody else than his master. Only he can understand. But at...
... have found a new virus. The old AIDS virus is still there, but a new virus has also come into being which seems to be more dangerous because you cannot detect it in the blood. The first can be detected; the second has improved itself - you cannot find it, so you will think it is not there. It will kill you and it will kill others with whom you are in contact. But because I have dispersed the...
... pray to God, and also I should ask the priest some way to save his life. Poverty has not been able to kill him, but this richness will kill him immediately." The priest said, "Don't be worried. I am coming with you and I will tell your husband when he comes home, very slowly, slowly, 'You have won one lakh rupees.' When I see that he has absorbed that, I will tell him, 'In fact, you have...
... reproductive machine. In China, for centuries, if the husband killed his wife it was not considered to be a crime - even murder was not a crime because the woman had no soul. It is almost like destroying your table, or your chair, or your washing machine. You cannot be dragged to the court as a murderer because you have destroyed your chair. It was your chair, and you have every right to keep it or to...
... mosque, raising his hands to God above, and asking him, "How long is it going to take? When are you going to open the doors? I have been waiting and praying for years." One day Rabiya was passing, and Junnaid was praying with the same words: "Open the door, I have waited enough, I am a frail human being, my patience is not infinite!" From the back Rabiya hit Junnaid on his head and...
..., but he is afraid of hitting a villain. Vice alone can be cut and destroyed for him. But if it was only a question of destroying or killing vice, Arjuna too would have had no problem. But Arjuna had to kill wicked villainous people. The question of whether it was right for him to kill or not arose only because the people who had arrayed themselves against Arjuna were his own relatives and elders. He...
... scene. I had to tell my chauffeur to stop, I wanted to see what was happening. There were almost one hundred beds lined up by the side of the street. I said, "Who is going to sleep here on the street?" The chauffeur said, "You may not know: the Jainas cannot kill any insects; and the parasites which grow in the beds, bed-bugs, they cannot kill them. Out of compassion they put their beds...
.... One day, Rabiya stood for a while to see what this man was doing there. And she heard that Hassan was saying, "God, how long do I have to wait - when will you open the door?" Rabiya hit Hassan on the head and said, "You idiot! The door is always open; in fact, there is no door - just enter! Don't waste time here sitting on the road ... and people have started thinking that you are a...
..., in his eyes there is no question of any discussion. But for me it means that if this is so, then it is better that the Shankaracharya of Puri commits suicide to bring rains in Hyderabad - because he has a hundred and eighty qualities. The poor woman has only forty qualities - she is just the earth. So why kill a woman, just a little pile of earth, and put it on the funeral pyre? That's what the...
... reflection in the lake of your consciousness is simply a milestone on the eternal journey to the moon itself. There come many points in the seeker's life when he thinks he has arrived. It is the greatest function of the master to hit the disciple at those points, and push him ahead, because there is much more ahead. I have told you a Sufi story: a woodcutter, very old and poor and alone, used to come to...
... to become enlightened. I agree with her. I also knew nothing about it before it happened. That's why I am calling it a diamond thunderbolt. You don't know when the lightning will come and hit your heart and transform you. If you are too much in love with misery, please never meditate; because I have suffered - so many things have simply disappeared! There is just a pure space, so silent and so...
... been going to one master, then another master, then another master - three times, nine times. Tokusan was the last master. His intellect tired, his mind tired, he simply sat there when Tokusan hit him with his staff, saying to him, "MY RELIGION HAS NO WORDS AND SENTENCES. IT HAS NOTHING TO GIVE ANYBODY." In that silence, he suddenly became awake. In this silence, anyone can become awake. I...
... am inviting the Shankaracharya to see for the first time in his life what silence means - it is not a scripture. What a gathering of buddhas means - no mind, but just a dance of being, a rejoicing inside, in your eternity, immortality, in your very truth. And if he comes here, I will have to bring my staff, too. He is old and I don't want to hit him, but at least I can show him the staff and show...
... invented by our learned elders has for long past been giving royal prestige to capital. 7. Capital, if it is to co-operate untrammeled, must be free to establish a monopoly of industry and trade: this is already being put in execution by an unseen hand in all quarters of the world. This freedom will give political force to those engaged in industry, and that will help to oppress the people. Nowadays it...
