... wrong. So give a person psychological help to a point and then immediately introduce meditation to him. Suddenly you will see that his psychological problems are just pseudo problems. His real problem has arisen, and that real problem is that he was seeking some meaning in his life - sometimes in the form of money, sometimes in power, prestige, love, rebtionships, this and that. The basic search is...
..., politicians, journalists, people who have nothing but power and money. These are the poorest ones because they are missing a tremendous opportunity of rejoicing in their own being and having a dance because they have found their authentic space. Before we go into our meditation a few laughs will help you. Laughter is a tremendously helpful method to shake off all dust that everybody gathers without his...
... silence is fragrant. It is not something special. Hyakujo is pointing out to his disciple that it is the most natural, simple experience: just don't ask to be special and it is yours, just don't go on a journey of power and it is yours, just don't even seek it and you have found it. It is your very nature; even if you try to drop it somewhere, throw it somewhere, it is not possible. There is no way not...
... human child cannot survive, he will die immediately. He is the most helpless creature in the world -- so vulnerable to death, so delicate. Naturally those who are in power are able to mould the child in the way they want. So everybody has become what he is, against himself. That is the psychology behind the fact that everybody wants to pretend to be what he is not. Everybody is in a schizophrenic...

... honestly, truthfully, morally. You never use wrong means; still you are a failure. And you see others being dishonest, cunning, insincere, immoral, criminal, using all kinds of wrong means and succeeding, becoming richer, attaining power, prestige. How to explain it? It is not new. Since the very beginning man has been puzzled by it. And he had to create some idea as a consolation. Fate, kismet, destiny...
... not arise. The politicians are the worst sufferers from inferiority complex. They want to prove to the world that they are great, they have power over millions - they are presidents, prime ministers. But if you look at their lives, that inferiority complex has not left them, it is still there. India's first prime minister, Jawaharlal Nehru was also five feet five inches, and when he took the oath...

... treasures and bring them to their fulfillment. Bring every potentiality to actuality. Once this disease disappears, politics will disappear automatically. Politics is an outcome of inferiority complex. People want power to prove to themselves and to others that they are not just nobodies. I teach you just to be yourself, and that's enough. You are accepted by the sun, you are accepted by the moon, you are...
... there are many more chances of being defeated. And even if you succeed you are not happy, because the moment you succeed you become afraid. Now somebody else is going to take it from you. The competitors are all around, violently after you. Before you succeeded you were afraid whether you were going to make it or not; now you have succeeded, you have the money and the power, now you are afraid...

..., but in accumulating it he dies, dissipates, becomes empty, becomes a beggar. Money goes on accumulating and he goes on becoming more and more beggarly. Somebody puts his energy into politics, into power. He becomes a prime minister, but deep down he is a beggar. He may be the greatest beggar in the country.... If you put your energy into objects, you will live a life of non-understanding...
... this news! What can be worse than this news!' The queen said, 'You have lost a battle, but you can still win the war. What worries me is not the loss of your army, but the loss of your courage. And that is by far a worse loss. The loss of hope, enthusiasm and courage spells a sure doom, whereas the loss of military power is comparatively nothing. The future is bleak for him who is hopeless. Take...

... teach us to memorise. When thoughts rise from within, you gain knowledge. And thoughts can rise from within, in all of us. This thinking power which lies dormant in us all, can be invoked and arisen if we have the know-how of it. The first thing necessary for this awakening, is that we should stop filling the mind with others' thoughts. It is a pity that we are so full of thoughts all the time, yet...
... have known. The Vedas are full of prayers asking for worldly things: better crops, better cows, more money, better health, fame, power, prestige. Not only that, the Vedas are continuously praying "Destroy the enemies", "Destroy those who oppose us." They are full of jealousy, anger, violence. They have nothing to do with the Upanishads. Upanishads are not commentaries and they are...

.... Because it comes from your own innermost being there is no division. When somebody says to you, "Do it, it SHOULD be done," naturally it creates a division in you. You don't want to do it, you wanted to do something else, but somebody - the parents, the politicians, the priests, those who are in power - they want you to follow a certain route. You never wanted to follow it so you will follow...
... association with Rajneesh." Then he was defeated and again he started coming here. When you are defeated there is no need to fear: already people are not in your favor. He came here a few months ago. I told my secretary, "Anyway I am not seeing anybody - and particularly I will not see this man who is such a coward that when he comes to power, he sends the message that it should be kept a secret...

... that he has been following me, attending my camps. I don't like such cowardly sheepish human beings." He understood that that is right. Now he has become again the chief minister, and I told one of my sannyasins there, "Ask him: does he want to see me?" He said, "Just don't mention his name - at least while I am in power!" To be rebellious you have to live as a stranger...
... will be born. It has never been so important to transform the consciousness of man, to bring a radical change in the very vision of man as it is today. And we have to do it quickly because time is short. The politicians are piling up atom bombs, hydrogen bombs and whatnot. Just within ten years the power to destroy man has increased seven hundred times. Ten years ago it was enough to destroy humanity...

... will live, but that program can be changed. If we can split the atom we can split the living cell and change its inner program; we can give it a new program, we can make it live three hundred four hundred, five hundred years; we can give it a program which will keep it healthy forever, young forever. Old age can disappear. This is possible now. Science has released tremendous power, but it has fallen...
