... presupposes a little awareness. If you are unconscious and somebody is doing surgery on you, you will not feel any pain. How can you feel pain? To feel pain, consciousness is needed. That's why in surgery we have to give anaesthesia, so the man falls completely asleep in a coma. Then you can cut, remove parts of the body without any pain. Otherwise, the pain is going to be unbearable. A contented pig is...
... divided, you are fighting with yourself. This fight is destroying your joy, this fight is dissipating your energies, this fight is suicidal. DON'T kill yourself any more! Just drop fighting, and start living. This very moment it can be dropped. But why can you not drop it? Why are these priests really so influential? There must be some reason in you too. The reason is that their idea that you should...
.... If you become possessive you will kill them. There are things which are immediately killed, the moment you possess them. In your experience there is only one thing that is immediately killed if you possess it - that is love. Satori is even more so. When you attain to a silent space, a meditative experience inside, DON'T possess it! This is the vow. DON'T say, "This is mine." DON'T become...
... mysterious saying, "the Golden Gate." That is Taoist way of saying that God is not really a person but a gate, an opening into existence, and if you are empty, the door opens WITHIN vou. It is your ego that is blocking the door, it is you who are blocking the door; except you there is no hindrance. Remove yourself, don't come in between and suddenly the Golden Gate opens. And it is called golden...
... WITHIN. ONLY THE LATTER IS OF VALUE. A GOOD THERAPIST, ESPECIALLY IF LOVE EXISTS, WILL HIT ON MANY WAYS OF HEIGHTENING THIS PROCESS OF LISTENING FOR THE UNEXPECTED. IS THIS A FORM OF MEDITATION? IN FACT, MIGHT IT BE SAID THAT IDEALLY, BOTH THERAPIST AND PATIENT ARE MEDITATING TOGETHER? Therapy is basically meditation and love, because without love and meditation there is no healing possible. When the...
... is misery. Remove it from my sight; otherwise I cannot open my eyes!" Confucius opens his eyes half-way - he believes in the golden mean, the middle way, just the half - looks with half open eyes and says, "I cannot deny it without tasting it." He is a man of more scientific leanings. "How can you say anything unless you experiment? You should not declare such things offhand. So...
... escape, because he has come to a cul-de-sac, the road ends. He is facing a great abyss. If he jumps he is bound to die. He cannot turn back because the enemy is going to kill him. He was hoping that there may be one chance if he jumps - he may become crippled, but maybe, by a miracle, he may survive - but that too seems to be impossible because he sees deep in the abyss two lions looking up at him...
... when you read the newspapers, it always gives you a good feeling - so much happening all over the world, so many ugly things, so much violence, murder, suicide, rape, robbery, that compared to all this you are a saint. Hence people don't like to read the Bible in the morning, or the Gita, but the newspaper! Reading the Gita you feel like a sinner, reading the Bible you start feeling a trembling, that...
..., war, religious crusades, jihad: "Kill others who are claiming that their truth is absolute - OUR truth is absolute!" Down the ages, more murders, more rapes, more lootings, have been done in the name of religion than in the name of anything else. And the reason? The reason is in the word 'absolute'.
