... an experiment. Two hundred thousand people died. And for generations the effect of those two bombs will continue, not only in human beings; in the fish, in the animals, in the trees - everywhere, the radiation will continue. At that time Albert Einstein was crying and saying, "I am an unintelligent man. I could not see a simple thing: that once you give power to the politicians it has gone...

... beyond your hands, you cannot do anything." His dying words were, "I would like to be born in my next life as a plumber, not as a physicist, because I don't want to commit such murderous acts again. And it was my foolishness..." Although what he proposed was very intellectual, it was not intelligent: "Just the very show of power is enough." But politicians are so hungry to show...

... their power that without making it actually felt by the whole world... They will not be able to restrain themselves. Have you seen two dogs fighting? Most probably they will bark at each other, jump at each other, and you will see that there is going to be a bloody fight - but nothing happens. They judge and see who is stronger, and once it is accepted by both that one is stronger than the other...
... of joy - why should I be frustrated? The wave has as much power on the sand as I have; perhaps it has more." When I was talking to him he said, "You are a little strange because nobody talks to me. People simply throw rupees. They enjoy the statue, but nobody enjoys me. But when you come I feel so blissful that there is somebody who enjoys me, who is not concerned only with the statue but...

... will try to protect themselves in every possible way. But they don't understand the inner logic of existence: the more you are protective, the more you are saying that there is something that needs to be protected; otherwise you will be exposed. The more you are preventing me from reaching people, the more you are giving me power - unknowingly. Unknowingly, you are proving yourself weak. Unknowingly...

... perversion and no perverted person should have the right to vote! They should allow me in. I can come to Holland. They have their whole government and all their power but let me speak to the people in the country and I will overturn this government; there is no problem in it. This whole cabinet - the president, the prime minister - all have to be medically checked to find out whether they are homosexuals...
... feel strange energy he had never felt... as if it had been dormant. He could feel tremendous power, and he had always been a weak, humble sheep. All that humbleness, all that weakness, simply evaporated. This is an ancient parable about the master and the disciple. The function of the master is only to bring the disciple to see who he is and that what he goes on believing is not true. Your mind is...

..., because others make it for you. It is not you, it is not even your own; it is all borrowed. The priests, the politicians, the people who are in power, the people who have vested interests, don't want you to know that you are above mind, beyond mind. Their whole effort has been to keep you identified with the mind, because mind is managed by them, not by you. You are being deceived in such a subtle way...

... brain is simply mechanical. Whatever mind wants, the brain does. But if you are separate, then the mind loses its power; otherwise it is sovereign. And you are afraid of meditation because of that. But I am alive - by meditation nobody dies! In fact the master cannot do anything but take you to the pond and show you those two faces in the mirror. I am alive, and I don't have any conditioning: I don't...
... another beautiful name for the ugly entity called ego. One of the great psychologists of this century, Alfred Adler, based his whole psychological analysis on this simple fact - that all man's problems arise out of will to power. He wants to become somebody, somebody special, somebody higher than others, somebody holier than others. It does not matter whether he is in the marketplace or in the monastery...

... will take care of itself. If you can rejoice in this moment, you will be able to rejoice more in the coming moment because you will become more and more expert in rejoicing, in dancing, in singing. And you will become more and more confident about yourself - that you need not be somebody else. Whoever you are, you are capable of enjoying the ultimate ecstasy without being rich, without being in power...

... conference, said, "Our priority was to destroy Osho's commune." One wonders why a great nation with so much power should be worried about a small commune of five thousand people, living absolutely aloof from America, in a desert. The nearest American town was twenty miles away. Why were they so worried? Why, in every Christian church, were they condemning me? For the simple reason that those five...
... enough; it goes on pulling you. It is like when you are coming downhill in a car, you put the engine off. You don't need any gas for coming downhill; the pull of gravitation is enough. But that cannot be done when you are moving uphill; then gas will be needed. You will need some integrity, some power. And only consciousness releases power. Consciousness is the key, the ignition key, that releases...

... power in you, and you become capable of soaring high. Otherwise, Harideva, this old saying is right: Old habits die hard... because there is nobody who can kill those old habits. At breakfast, Feinberg's wife said to him, "We are having Sonia's boyfriend to dinner for the first time. We are gonna have a big meal with our best dishes. So please behave. Don't eat with your knife, or you will kill...
... of becoming. And what I am telling you here is just the opposite of it. I am talking about BEING, not about becoming. Becoming is an invention of the crafty politicians and the priests - and these are the people who have poisoned the whole humanity. They go on giving you goals. If you become tired of the worldly things - money, power, prestige - they are there to tell you about paradise, God...

..., samadhi, truth. Again the whole process starts. And it is easy to be frustrated with the worldly things. Sooner or later you can see the whole stupidity of having more money or more power. Sooner or later you are going to see the futility of the very idea of "more," because the more brings nothing else but more misery. It takes away all bliss from you, all peace from you. It is destructive. It...

... greater the guilt, the more is their power over you. They make you feel guilty, they make you feel sinners. I am a totally different kind of man: I help you to get rid of your guilt. I want to tell you that you are not sinners, and to commit mistakes is just human - to err is human. There is no need to make much fuss about it. And your errors are small; just a little awareness and they will disappear...
... attacked. The cease-fire remained for only two hours under the observation of the U.N., but what can the U.N. do? It has no armies of its own, no power of its own; at most it can send observers, and what can they do? They can go on observing, but at most they may be killed in the fight. All the big countries need small wars to continue everywhere, because that is their market. Science goes on improving...

... out-of-date weapons. It is a strange economy. If all wars ceased America would lose its power immediately; the dollar would fall down to the earth, because it would lose its market. It is a good conspiracy, a great partnership with the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union goes on supplying one party with its old weapons and the other party gets weapons from America. Both have a good market all around the...

... nuclear; it will be an ordinary old-fashioned wood fire. Up to now it was thought that India belongs to the Third World. Now the World Bank is saying that India has admitted itself to the Fourth World. And it will go on falling down and down, because those who are in power know nothing of economics, they know nothing about humanity and compassion. The whole country and the whole world has to be made...
... attainment of the eternal life of progress in the divine kingdom. (1601.3) 142:5.3 “The Supreme Spirit shall bear witness with your spirits that you are truly the children of God. And if you are the sons of God, then have you been born of the spirit of God; and whosoever has been born of the spirit has in himself the power to overcome all doubt, and this is the victory that overcomes all uncertainty, even...

...’ teaching to preach the gospel of the kingdom with more power and assurance. This experience at Jerusalem was a great inspiration to the twelve. It was their first contact with such enormous crowds, and they learned many valuable lessons which proved of great assistance in their later work. 6. The Visit with Nicodemus (1601.6) 142:6.1 One evening at the home of Flavius there came to see Jesus one...

... progressing up through successive life stations to Paradise. In the course of the evening he definitely stated that at some future stage of kingdom development he would revisit this world in spiritual power and divine glory. (1603.5) 142:7.4 He next explained that the “kingdom idea” was not the best way to illustrate man’s relation to God; that he employed such figures of speech because the Jewish people...
... become that peak of bliss; all that is needed is not to be satisfied with the ordinary. People are happy running after power and prestige, money and respectability. Who bothers about bliss? And when millions of people around you are running after money, you think that there must be something in it; so many people can't be wrong. The truth is that so many people can't be right! Truth is a rare quality...

... start decorating it, because by the morning you have to go. You don't start any attachment with the things in it because in the morning you have to go. Once the world is thought of as a passage, not as a home, things start changing: then money is not that relevant, power and prestige and respectability mean nothing. Then energy is not wasted in things which mean nothing. One starts searching for the...
... intelligence is just a sort of cowardice. One protects oneself and never goes beyond the limit. One always tries to manipulate people because manipulating people can give you a certain false feeling of love. For example, if you can force somebody to do something, you will feel a sort of power. Love also has that power but without being aware of it at all. It is not that lovers force each other to do things...
