..., but the fragrance was reaching him. He said again to Buddha, "You please go, sir. I don't want to kill you. You are unnecessarily insisting that I do something that I don't want to do." But Buddha went on coming closer and closer. And finally he was standing before Angulimal. Angulimal said, "I used to think I was a stubborn man - you are a thousandfold more stubborn. Now I cannot...
... help you, I have to cut your head." Buddha said, "It is an old tradition and convention to fulfill the last wish of a person who is going to die, and I have a very small wish. You fulfill it and then kill me." He said, "What is your wish? Even if it is the biggest thing, I will manage it for you." Buddha said, "No, it is a very small thing. Just cut off a branch of the...
... experts. They are not interested in spirituality; spirituality is dangerous to them, because if the American people get involved in meditation, silence, serenity, they will refuse to kill anybody - war or no war. They will simply be able to see that the third world war is going to be a total war in which nothing of life will remain. American politicians would not like people to have such clarity of...
... seems whenever they find a man who is genuinely spiritual, they want to kill him. There must be some reason behind it. The reason is that if real spirituality spreads, religion will disappear. Religions are substitute spirituality, saccharin. And if you can get real sugar, who bothers about saccharin? And the latest findings say saccharin creates cancer! The priest is pretending to be your spiritual...
... not die of a heart attack. But ejaculation is not the real thing. You have simply thrown your energy without gaining any experience out of it. It is sheer wastage. Even if you don't die of a heart attack, you are not going to live eternally; some other attack will kill you. Perhaps you may live two, three years more than others, but what is the point of living? Orgasm is one of the most significant...
... worth anything. Doubt everything with your totality, and doubt will take you to the point where you discover the indubitable, that which even if you want to doubt, you cannot doubt: it is there! And then of course the question of belief does not arise - neither before nor afterwards. Before, it was dangerous; it will kill your doubting capacity. Afterwards, it is futile; you know, there is no need to...
... in an idea which is going to kill God sooner or later. Those popes were perceptive in a way: they could see the faraway implications of the idea of evolution. Ordinarily you would not connect creation and evolution. What connection is there between God and Charles Darwin? There is a connection. Charles Darwin is saying that the creation is an ongoing process, that existence is always imperfect...
... very happy with him and said, "Because you have done something which nobody has ever done, I give you something which has never been given to anybody: you will have ten heads. Because you have sacrificed one, I will give you ten heads. And any enemy cutting off one of your heads will not be able to kill you - immediately another head will grow. Your ten heads will remain ten." This man with...
... has no population, except rats. All the trees have died. There is a tremendous amount of atomic radiation which can kill any human being, but the rats have not died. They quickly became immune to any radiation. It was thought that in the third world war all life will disappear. Now it is known rats will live, third world war or no third world war. All kinds of poisons have been used on rats to save...
..., which is really unique, because in the whole of history no mystic has talked about opening unto "yourself." Deva Jayan, everything is possible - you just have to remove the hindrances: the greatest hindrance is the ego; the second hindrance is knowledgeability without experience; the third hindrance is imagination without seeing clearly that there is no bud yet. I can see it. I don't know...
... message essentially is the same. And Gautam Buddha and Mahavira are equally enlightened." He said, "Yes." I said, "Then why this difference? Either put 'Mahatma' in front of both the persons or put 'Bhagwan'." Now he was in a great dilemma. He could not write 'Mahatma Mahavir'. The Jainas would kill him, they would expel him. He was a Jaina ... Nobody, not a single Jaina in...
... experience. Your whole question is absolutely rootless, but I will try to answer it because I don't want to hurt you. You don't yet deserve it. Once you start deserving, then I don't hesitate. Then I hit you this way and that way and you rejoice in it. But when you are not ready, I try to be as polite as possible. Now, you are saying, " ... guided by experience ...," which means guided by the...
... - the real history will be made by your children. They will rape and they will murder and they will commit suicide and they will do all kinds of great things. The husband is continuously worried about the financial situation; his whole life is devoted to earning money. He cannot persuade the wife because that will be the end of the family. Then both will have gone towards enlightenment, leaving those...
... furious - "This is destroying our whole morality, this is corrupting our children. Children will see and they will ask, what kind of people are these? - naked in one gown.... These people will corrupt our whole religion and tradition." Bhoj decided to kill all of them. One hundred thousand couples - that means two hundred thousand people - were killed all over the country, burned alive. Not a...
... word 'room'? Do you know that the word 'room' means spaciousness, roominess? When a room is full of furniture and all kinds of things, photographs, and flowers, its roominess is covered. It is less roomy, less spacious than its reality. If you remove everything from the room, it can be described as an empty room; but that is really repeating the word. 'Room' simply means emptiness, spaciousness...
... of harassment to go on hitting on your head, the way a nail is hit into the wall, so that finally you scream, and you say, "Yes, I am a buddha!" Unless you scream, and say "I am a buddha!" the master is going to hammer the nail into your head. But most people, just seeing the hammer, immediately realize, "What is the point of unnecessary suffering? Why not be a buddha?"...
..., he would not find anything. He has lived with criminals his whole life. He knows the eyes of crime, he does not know the eyes of innocence. I had my cap, and he said to Niren, "I hesitated whether to tell him to remove the cap or not" - because this stupid idea exists in America that to wear a cap in the courtroom is insulting to the court. My own understanding is that to cover your head...
... is a respectful gesture. A court has to be a temple of justice. But he said, "Finally I asked him to remove his cap." I removed the cap and with the removal of the cap I removed all my respect for American courts and the American constitution. I am not fussy about small things. But from that moment, whatever I have heard about Judge Leavy became absolutely absurd. He is not a man of...
...? Should we test this missionary also?" They said, "That's the right thing to do, because he was trying to deceive us." And the missionary was almost in tears, nervous, trembling and he said, "You are an educated man - don't kill me! I have nothing to do with Jesus Christ or anybody, I am just a missionary; I just get a salary for it." I told the people, "Let the poor fellow...
... go. What is the point? You had everything, now you are a torture." He said, "What can I do? There are so many rats." The people suggested, "Then do one thing. We will give you a cat." He said, "What will the cat do?" People suggested, "The cat will kill the rats and will protect your underwear." It was perfectly logical. So he took a cat with him. But...
