... can be angry and hit him -- but be finished! Let the whole process be completed. Remember one basic law: anything that is complete drops, because then there is no meaning in carrying it; anything that is incomplete clings, it waits for its completion. And this existence is really always after completion. The whole existence has a basic tendency to complete everything. It does not like incomplete...

... they murder can they be covered by headlines. They become suddenly very, very important -- their pictures are given, their names, their biographies are covered: suddenly they are not nobodies, they have become somebodies. Neurosis is a deep hankering after attention, and if you give it attention, you feed it -- that's why psychoanalysis has been a complete failure. In zen monasteries they treat a...

... our way! -- and if you don't listen we will kill you. Christians are persuading: Come to our way! They are cleverer than Mohammedans; they don't kill really; they bribe, they seduce, they give you bread, they give you hospitals, they give you medicine, and they say, Come our way! Where are you going? They are merchants, and they know how to bribe people; they have converted millions, just by giving...

... things to them. There are Hindus, they go on saying: We possess the whole truth -- and they are so arrogant they don't bother even to convert anybody, remember: You are fools, you need not be converted. They are so arrogant, and they think: We know the Way. If you want to you can come. We are not going to bribe you or kill you -- you are not that important. You can come if you want, but we are not...
... you back. Your humanity is only skin-deep. Any moment you can become a wolf, you can become a tiger; you can tear the other into pieces. Any moment! Any moment you can kill. And not only can you kill others: you can kill yourself too. Suicide and murder, constantly pulling you. Destruction calling you, alluring you. And then there are Buddhas... once in a while you see a man and you are enchanted...

...? Whom to listen to? Whom to believe? How to be certain that you are going on the right track? Great suspicion, great doubt, great anxiety. And deep inside you, something is pulling you back: "Better become an animal again. Fall into drunkenness. Take drugs, or become a sex maniac. Or become violent - kill people!" Why is there so much violence in the world? The animal past goes on pulling...
... show your hatred. But you are attached, you are still connected. You have not been able to disconnect yourself. You are still tethered; you are still holding the apron string of your mother. You are still childish. Neither love nor hate - the parental voice has to disappear. You have to just watch it disappearing. Buddha goes even further. He says: Unless you kill your parents... unless you KILL your...

... parents.... He does not mean that you have to murder them actually, but deep inside you have to murder them. You have to drop them. You have to forgive and forget. Don't react to your parents' voice inside you. And a modern trend in psychoanalysis - transpersonal psychoanalysis, transpersonal psychotherapy - will agree perfectly with Buddha and Jesus. Once you are free from the goal, the guilt, the ego...

... will not ask, "What am I going to do with the snake now? Should I kill it?" That question is meaningless. This is the situation of the mind. We have not seen it clearly, we have not seen it from a closer viewpoint. We have not seen it through awareness, alertness. We have not watched it. THE MIND - WHAT SHALL WE CALL IT? IT IS THE SOUND OF THE BREEZE THAT BLOWS THROUGH THE PINES IN THE...
... Available: N.A. Length: N.A. The first question: Question 1: THE STRONGEST EMOTION THAT I HAVE IS HATING DEATH. I WANT TO KILL IT! ONCE AND FOR ALL! THE SECOND THING IS: I FEEL EXTREME PAIN WHEN I REALIZE THAT I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO THANK YOU. IS THERE A CONNECTION? DEVA BHAKTA, TO HATE DEATH IS TO HATE LIFE. They are not separate and they cannot be separated. Death and life exist together, there is no way...

... affirmation, total affirmation, brings you to reality. You say: THE STRONGEST EMOTION THAT I HAVE IS HATING DEATH. I WANT TO KILL IT! ONCE AND FOR ALL! You cannot do it. Nobody can do it - it is impossible, it is not in the nature of things. The day you were born, death became absolutely certain. Now there is no shirking. Death can be dissolved only when you dissolve birth. You have already died. The day...

..., Eastern insight. But remember, you cannot fight death. YOU can dissolve birth, and then death is dissolved. But what happens is that ordinarily we love birth, we love life and that's why we hate death. Now you are going into an impossibility - you will drive yourself crazy. I WANT TO KILL IT! If you really want to kill death, accept it. Accept it totally - and in that very acceptance death disappears...

... dresses, it would be separates. They could steal a Paris original, and if they cut it, it would be the disaster of the year. You can imagine then how much more discouraging it was that just one floor above them was "The Company That Couldn't Go Wrong". Right upstairs was a company that, if they cut something, no matter how crazy the thing was, it would be automatically a hit! They couldn't do...
... thought is a thing. When I say a thought is a thing, what do I mean? I mean that you can throw your thought just like a thing. You can hit somebody's head with a thought just like a thing. You can kill a person through a thought just as you can throw a dagger. You can give your thought as a gift, or as an infection. Thoughts are things, they are forces, but they don't belong to you. They come to you...

... has not committed many murders in thought; difficult to find a person who has not been doing all sorts of sins and crimes inside the mind - and then these things happen. And remember, you may not murder, but your continuous thinking of murdering somebody may create the situation in which the person is murdered. Somebody may take your thought, because there are weaker persons all around and thoughts...

... flow like water: downwards. If you think something continuously, someone who is a weakling may take your thought and go and kill a person. That's why those who have known the inner reality of man, they say that whatsoever happens on the earth, everybody is responsible, everybody. Whatsoever happens in Vietnam, not only are Nixons responsible, everybody who thinks is also responsible. Only one person...

... future. He lives, he walks, he moves, he eats, he talks, he is doing many things, so he must accumulate karma, because karma means activity. But in the East it is said even if a buddha kills, he will not accumulate karma. Why? And you, even if you don't kill, you will accumulate karma. Why? It is simple: whatsoever Buddha is doing, he is doing without any mind in it. He is spontaneous, it is not...
... dramas and to the disco and he is disturbing us continuously! And he has possessed the whole room - as if the room belongs to him and we are just living in his room! He has put all his things all around the room - all his toys are everywhere! So please," they asked me, "remove him!" I told him to go to his mother, Neerja, to live with her. He said, "That is the last place I want to...

... that you can drop it, because whatsoever they have done they have done unconsciously. They need to be forgiven. Forgive them. Jesus says: Hate your father and Mother; Buddha says: Kill them. I say to you: Forgive them - which is far more difficult. Forgive them because whatsoever they have done they have done unknowingly; they were conditioned by THEIR parents and so on and so forth. Even Adam and...

... free. But to love them you will have to cleanse yourself totally. I will not tell you, like Gautam the Buddha, to kill them, because killing is not going to help. Understand them. Be compassionate. Killing will be doing something in a hurry; there is no need to be in a hurry. And parents have gone so deep in you; they are not only in your blood and bones, they have entered in your very marrow. You...

... cannot kill them easily - it is impossible. You will have to commit suicide if you want to kill them because only then will they be killed. They have entered your being: you are part of them, they are part of you. But through deep understanding you can be free of them. A lawyer has succeeded in acquitting a Jew who has killed his mother, his wife and his sister. Before separating he says to the man...
... affects the trees. It means that his intention is being understood; it means the very vibe is being decoded by the trees. And one more significant fact has been observed scientifically: that if you go into the forest and kill an animal, it is not only the animal kingdom around that becomes shaken, but trees also. If you kill a deer, all the deer that are around feel the vibe of murder, become sad; a...

... great trembling arises in them. Suddenly they are afraid for no particular reason at all. They may not have seen the deer being killed, but somehow, in a subtle way, they are affected - instinctively, intuitively. But it is not only the deer which are affected - the trees are affected, the parrots are affected, the tigers are affected, the eagles are affected, the grass leaves are affected. Murder has...

... express in the normal society, you will be getting into far more dangerous situations. You may murder somebody - you have so much anger. You will be in jail, imprisoned forever. Or if you go on fighting with everybody - if you slap the boss in the office, if you beat your wife, your children, your husband - then your whole life will become a chaos, it will be impossible to live it. So after a few days...
... troubles for people. Sanskrit is perhaps the only language you can learn perfectly just by reading. You cannot do that with any other language. I don't know much English. I know enough to hit people, but that is not much. But one thing I can see that English grammarians, linguistics experts, are not able to answer: b-u-t is but, and p-u-t is put. That seems to be strange. Either b-u-t should be boot, or...

... you. And if you smile, then a crowd will gather asking, "What has happened? Why is this man smiling?" Laughter is unheard of; everybody is sad and with a long face. This was the situation of the whole West. They needed science and destructive science because they were fighting and creating empires all around the world. They needed more and more superior weapons to kill, to destroy, to...

... so small before the djinn, and the djinn said from the sky, "Now, I am free. Thank you for making me free. I will do everything, I will be your servant, but there is one condition. I cannot sit silently. I need work continuously, twenty-four hours a day, day in, day out. If you cannot give me work I will kill you." The man said, "Don't be worried, I will give you work. But what work...

... slowly, slowly the same happened in Africa, in other parts of Asia, where there were no freedom struggles either. There too freedom came. It had to come; how much can you exploit? In India, people worship cows. They cannot kill them and they cannot sell them to butchers, but there is a time when the cow becomes old, it gives no milk, no children; now it is a burden to feed it. The people are so poor...

... are on the streets dying, hungry. They cannot even now condemn anybody: "It is because you are making us slaves, that's why we are dying." Now there is nobody to condemn either, it is their own responsibility. So the empires had to die - a natural death. Now science is there, like the djinn, asking for more work "otherwise I will kill you." And that's why the West is facing a...
... against the government, that your father is deep down against communism.... And it is not just a question of complaint; you are arranging murder, imprisonment - a life sentence, a death sentence for your mother and father - and you know it. But this is the only way to prove your devotion. Wives are spying on husbands and reporting against them. Husbands are spying against wives and reporting them. And...

... keep them in prison you have to feed them, you have to give them clothes. And why should your country be feeding its enemies? What is the point? Get finished with them. Unburden the country. And he really unburdened in millions. Khrushchev was very angry, and he said, "This man is the greatest murderer in history, and it is good that he is dead. We should remove his grave from Red Square"...

...; - because when Stalin was in power, at that time he had ordered his grave to be made near Lenin's grave in Red Square. While he was in power, the grave was already made according to his design, according to his idea. It had to be the grave of one of the greatest communists. Khrushchev said, "We have to remove that grave. It is an ugly spot." And he removed it. Stalin's bones were taken out and...

... on another side, hands there, heart here, and everything stops, nothing is left. And you can weigh all the parts, they will weigh exactly the same weight as the man. That is his scientific logic: that no soul has left the body. Nothing has gone, it is the same weight. You have just dismantled the organism - it was a machine. According to Marx, in summary: man is a robot. So to kill a robot who is...

... small thing and we could not say a single word against him, because he would do the same to us as he would have done to anybody else - he would kill us. We were treated just like servants." Even Stalin's wife could not enter his room without knocking and asking permission. She had to make an appointment - and they lived just in the same house. Stalin was very much in favor of what he called...
... giving him anesthetics is really dangerous; you may kill the man. He may not be able to bear the pain, because the pain is going to be terrible. You have to cut his stomach; you have to cut out his appendix, you have to remove it. It will take one hour, two hours - one never knows in what condition his appendix is. But he was no ordinary man either - otherwise they would have forced him - he was the...

... through an operation in 1920 - just in this century - and created news all over the world because of his operation. He refused to take any anesthetic. He said, "I have taken a vow not to take anything that makes me unconscious, so I cannot be put under chloroform; but you need not be worried." It was a major operation - to remove his appendix. Now, to take out somebody's appendix without...

... king of Varanasi. He said to the doctors, "But don't be worried" - and the best doctors available in India were there; one expert from England was there. They all consulted: nobody was ready to do this operation, but the operation had to be done, otherwise any moment the appendix could kill the man. The state was serious, and both the alternatives seemed to be serious: if you left him...

... about it. You have to follow the clock and my orders, and at that moment when I am asleep you need not bother about what I am saying. I may say, 'Go away! - I will get up.' You are not to go away, you have to get me out of the bed at five o'clock." Many times they used to fight, and the servant used to hit him and force him out of the bed. Now a new servant could not do that, beat the master; and...
