... music has tremendous power in it. Just by the waves it can provoke something which is asleep in you. Music can create anger - there is music which is used in war, for armies. It can create violence, it can make you a murderer. It can do just the opposite too: it can give you great silence and peace and it can create love in you. And the ultimate is that it can provoke the presence of god in you. The...
... certain type of person -- the warrior type. But because of his own teaching, his followers -- who all came from the chhatriyas, the warrior race in India -- had to drop their profession of being warriors, because that is violence. Now they were in trouble -- what to do? They could not be brahmins because a brahmin is only born. You cannot become a brahmin by studying or by doing anything, there is no...
... cultivation or gardening you will have to cut trees -- and that is violence, because trees have life. So all other areas are rejected. And these business people are not trained like Mahavira. He was trained in his youth as a warrior, as a fighter, and he brought his fighting qualities to his search for truth. Now, these business people are not trained for fighting. If somebody comes and says that truth can...
... breathing. I hope... it is time that man should become more conscious on a worldwide scale, because except for that, nothing can save humanity from the destruction of the third world war that is looming darker and darker every day on the horizon. Question 2: BELOVED OSHO, MEHER BABA SPEAKS ABOUT TWO DIFFERENT KINDS OF ENLIGHTENED MASTERS. ONE HE CALLS "MAN BECOMING GOD," THE OTHER HE CALLS "...
... - and seeing death, seeing beyond death, his consciousness must change. He cannot remain the same old person. But he remains the same old person, nothing changes. So what is the miracle? And sooner or later, one day he has to die. So at the most his death is postponed a few years, but he will live these few years in unconsciousness, in violence, in hatred, in jealousy. And he will accumulate more sin...
... asking, praying to God to forgive the people, is an egoistic approach; it is not love, it is ego, according to Friedrich Nietzsche. Jesus has said, "If somebody slaps you on one cheek, give him the other too." Now this is one of the greatest statements ever made by anybody, of tremendous beauty, of deep love, of non-violence - but Friedrich Nietzsche condemns it. He says, "This is...
... that he gave were that, "The soul is eternal, so don't be bothered. You can kill - the soul is not killed, only the body, and the body is dead anyway. So there is no violence involved, because the soul is immortal and the body is mortal. You are only separating the immortal from the mortal, there is nothing wrong in it - just separating the essential from the non-essential. Do you think you...
... tremendously powerful - from the outside and from the inside, because you are conditioned by them. The whole of human history is full of violence, full of war, and we know perfectly well that it is because of the existence of nations. There is no need of nations. This whole planet is one. Its problems are one, its solutions have to be one. But why is it not being implemented? And anybody who says this...
... these roots.... This earth has the capacity to feed at least five times more people than exist today - that is a scientific calculation - but these barriers should be removed. And science should be employed not in the service of death and destruction but in the service of life and love, affirmation, celebration. We are in a situation today such that either we will let these rotten politicians and...
... his father was absolutely against any kind of education. Gandhi was so angry. He was talking so much of non-violence and love and compassion but he had nothing of it; he was so angry. And what crime had the son committed? - he became a matriculate. And Haridas was thinking that once he is a matriculate, his father will be angry and shout and may even beat him; but how long can this go on? - things...
... crowd - he turned his back. He would not look at his son's face - and this man is talking about compassion, kindness, love, non-violence! And not only that, his wife was, after all, a mother. She wanted at least to have two words with Haridas, but Gandhi stopped her. He said, "Choose. If you say a single word to Haridas, you also go with him." This is the way of the ego. Kasturba, his wife...
... trying to be nonangry is not going to change his being. A violent person trying to be non-violent will still remain violent; his violence will now take subtle forms. The only thing that is possible is to be conscious of your greed. And I am not saying that you will be rewarded in paradise, I am not saying anything about the future. I am simply saying that if you become aware of greed it disappears. And...
... when it disappears, life is bliss here and now - not in the future, not as a reward. Greed cripples you, anger cripples you, violence cripples you. When they all disappear.... And they all disappear through one method. A single method is enough - meditation is enough. All the diseases disappear through taking a single medicine. The words "medicine" and "meditation" come from the...
... it, and the poor victims are punished." What is wrong? Who is going to define it? To the Jainas, violence is wrong. Any act which destroys life is crime, it is a sin. But to the Hindus, to the Mohammedans, to the Christians, violence is a way of life. How many lives have you destroyed just for your food? And without ever thinking twice, "What am I doing?" And even the greatest...
... criminal! The mystery of existence has to be welcomed as it is. Dissecting it, demystifying it, is a violation, aggression, violence. A man of meditation simply enjoys the flowers, the birds, the trees, the rain, the sun, the moon, the people. It is good that we are all engulfed in a mysterious whole. Life will be utterly boring if every mystery is decoded. Science's whole effort is to demystify...
... periods... but you seem to be more clear, because if there is a peace period, from where does the war come in?" The day we will have peace, then there will be no war. But up to now we have not known peace. What is the reason for all this conflict and war and violence and murders and massacres? The mind! The world will know peace only when we have learnt how to go beyond mind. Then you are not a...
... life becomes a oneness. Then there is no dichotomy, the opposite doesn't exist. So really, to call Buddha's love 'love' is not good, but we have no other term. Buddha himself never used the word 'love'. He used the word 'compassion'. But that too is not very good. Because your compassion is always mixed with your cruelty, your non-violence is always mixed with your violence - whatsoever you do will...
