..., manoeuvre, domineer - through wealth, power, politics, knowledge, strength, lies, pretensions, hypocrisies, even religion, morality. And everybody is trying to dominate, to show the whole world that "I am the center". And this is the root of all problems. Because of this concept, you are always in conflict and struggle, with somebody or other. Not that others are enemies to you, everybody is...
.... Rich people - ask them, in the end. They have accumulated much, but they feel a deep failure inside. You can accumulate power in many ways, but you will be a failure. Ego can never be victorious. Mulla Nasrudin was telling stories to his child. I was also listening, and the child was insisting on more, so he invented a story. He said: "There was one worm that was an early- rising worm. He woke...
... concentration, begin to order the pin to go toward the right. Within seven days of practicing it, you will be able to move the pin. Once a pin can follow orders from your mind, you have achieved something that is needed for materialization. It is a long process, but now at least you can feel that mind does have power over matter. Once this power is felt, once you are totally able to concentrate...
... 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 heart, therefore, my lord!' The queen's words were not meant for the king only; they apply to us all. Instead of taking things to heart, we have to learn to take heart. We have to overcome depression and defeatism and despondency; for...
... WHAT ABOUT OUR UNIVERSITIES? DON'T THEY TEACH US TO THINK? No! They teach us only to learn by rote what others have thought, they do not teach us to think for our-selves. They 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 begins to fill our consciousness, this is what is called meditation. We cannot grasp the present because the mind works with such speed, and time runs out so fast, that we cannot grasp the point between two moments. We cannot stop time, it is not in our hands, but we can stop the mind. It is very much within our power. If the mind comes to an absolute halt, we can be one with the present moment...
... capable to know the primeval beginnings which are the continuity of Tao. Tao means religion, Tao means power, Tao means the rule (RIT). Tao means the supreme mystery, where there is no time, where there is no making and breaking, where there is no life, no death. He attains this supreme continuity. Time is the gate. If you are swinging between the past and the future, you are still in samsara (the world...
... to do with society, it has nothing to do with the crowd. But people are afraid, very much afraid of those who know themselves. They have a certain power, a certain aura and a certain magnetism - a charisma that can take out alive, young people from the traditional imprisonment. And there are so many prisons: Christianity, and Hinduism, and Mohammedanism, and Jainism, and Buddhism... wherever there...
... magistrate said - a woman magistrate... For the first time I had a thought that perhaps a woman in power may prove more dangerous than a man. That woman magistrate said, "You have not proved anything, but still I refuse to give him bail. The reason? The reason is that he is an influential man, he has thousands of followers. The maximum bail is only half a million dollars. He can jump bail; there are...
... power. They were the least responsible for the world going to the dogs because without power how can you destroy humanity? But still the Germans believed it - they started believing it simply because of repetition: it was repeated so often. At first Adolf Hitler was laughed at - people thought, "He is crazy! This is sheer nonsense!" But he was stubborn: he went on hammering, he didn't listen...
... have opened, but either we are unaware of the door - we see it and yet see it not - or we don't think it is a door, we don't recognise it as a door. We are so occupied in our thoughts that we by-pass it, brooding, stewing in our own miseries; or we are looking for something else - for money, for power, for prestige. But god comes to every life in many many moments and remains unrecognised. From this...
... who is in love with power - he is as mad. He is as mad, he can give his life for it. At any cost he must have the loved object, whatsoever it is. He is centered in the object - this is what I mean by hypnosis - he is centered in the object, not in himself. He can lose himself, but not the object. Mulla Nasruddin was robbed once. He was alone on a lonely road. He was caught and the robber said, "...
... been dragged into seriousness. All religions have played their role in poisoning man. The people who are going on any kind of power trip are bound to destroy man's laughter, his innocent wondering eyes, his childhood. The giggle of a child seems to be more dangerous to these people than nuclear weapons. And in fact they are right - if the whole world starts laughing a little more, wars will be...
...? the goal is always there just on the horizon. It looks very close by: you feel just a few steps more or a few miles and you will have arrived. But as you proceed towards the goal, the goal goes on receding and the distance between you and the goal remains constantly the same.
