... existed in history. You should be thankful to the British government that they forced India and consolidated her into one country. India has been one country only under British rule. In Gautam Buddha's time there were two thousand independent kingdoms in India!" And I had told my family, "Your freedom will certainly remove the British from power, but remember, the country will start falling...
... novelists were not interested in women. Most of the great painters were afraid of women for the simple reason that either you can paint or you can be married: you can't have two wives - together both will kill you. There is an ancient parable in India: A man was caught as a thief in a house. He was presented in court and the magistrate said, "Do you accept your guilt?" He said, "I accept it...
.... You look silent; you are not silent. This is one type of silence that you know. There is another type of silence - that on the surface you are also silent, and you can be forced inside also to be silent. If you are in danger - somebody threatens you, that he is going to kill you - then you will become silent inside also, but this silence will be wordless. The first silence, when on the surface you...
... death all around you, as though the whole world is ready to kill you, to annihilate you; as if you have been thrown into an ocean when the waves are roaring and rushing towards you to swallow you up, and there is no shore in sight, no boat, no shelter, no one to hear you however much you scream - all around you the roaring waves of the ocean, you, and death, and nothing else! In this intense...
..., "What do you think I am? I am not like Rama," was told to Rama and it hurt him deeply, created a thorn in his heart. Rama has no total acceptance of things. He could not bear the idea of a blot on his name, on his character. He could remove Sita, he could throw her out, because he could not accept this stigma. So the Hindu mind never called Rama a total incarnation. It called him maryada...
... nothing to lose? Who can defeat a person who has nothing to lose? Who can frighten a person who has nothing to lose? By understanding this emptiness he becomes a great warrior. It is impossible to defeat him, it is impossible to rob him; it is impossible to kill him -- because he is already empty. He holds nothing in his hands. By not holding anything, he goes beyond life and death. That is the meaning...
... -- because the child has not yet learned how to doubt. So we teach doubt, we teach scepticism, we teach logic. These seem to be measures for survival. We teach fear, we teach caution, we teach prudence, and all these together kill the possibility of love. I have heard.... Doctor Abrams was called to Mulla Nasrudin's shop where the Mulla was Iying unconscious. Doctor Abrams worked on him for a long time and...
... like a seed; it can become the act any moment. Now you will need a little more subtle awareness. The act is gross -- you hit the woman. You can become aware while you are hitting, but the idea of hitting is far more subtle. Thousands of ideas go on passing in the mind -- who takes note of them? They go on and on; the traffic continues. Most of those ideas never become acts. This is the difference...
... staff and said, "Once more and I will kill you!" The man said, "There is no need to do that great work. I just wanted to know whether you had changed." Twenty years of cultivation of all the virtues, and just a little scratch and the old man comes out. All our morality, all our cultivation is superficial. My interest is not in any superficial cultivation but in a revolution...
.... My message is the same. I am not saying a new truth every day. I'm saying the same truth in so many forms, in so many expressions. Now I have to hammer you from different directions because I see you so fast asleep. I can hear your snoring.
