... conscious, your mind is doing a thousand and one other things too. But when you are in a hypnotic sleep your mind is not doing anything. It is simply absorbing whatsoever is being poured into it. Now they are using it for indoctrination, for teaching communism. They are using it on prisoners, prisoners of war. In China it has been used so widely that when the people who were caught in the Korean war came...

... other person, use sex to show love and tenderness to the other so that for the time being there is peace. But that peace does not last long; it is just a cold war, not peace. Again the war will erupt. In the morning, again the same story will be repeated. Unless we become aware that something very stupid has been propounded in the name of marriage, Nirdosh, this is going to continue. My sannyasins, at...

... own accord. If too much intelligence is dangerous then every government, every country wants people to be retarded. Retarded people are obedient. I have heard that after the first world war psychologists for the first time tried to measure man's intelligence. The army was a good place and they were shocked to see that thirteen years was the average mental age in the army. The man may have been...

... seventy years old but his mind had stopped growing after thirteen years. But in the army they don't want intelligent people. In the second world war, a professor was recruited to the army because there was a shortage of soldiers. The professor said again and again, "I am absolutely incapable of being a soldier." But nobody listened to him. The first day he was put on the ground and the orders...

.... This is not equality. Equality means equal opportunity to bring your potential and contribute to life, to the world, and to yourself, a joy. And as nuclear weapons have come into existence, war has become out-of-date. It will be a suicide, global suicide. So it is time to destroy all barriers and proclaim a brotherhood of the whole earth. And we will all share equal opportunity to do whatever we want...

... FOREIGN POLICY OF INDIA? Osho: Looking at the whole complex, corruption cannot be stopped whether there is a middle man or not. If the world is one, war becomes impossible. With whom you are going to fight? And there is no need for defense departments, purchasing through middle men weapons or anything. A single solution is a world government. Corruption will disappear, because the world government will...

... raise the percentage of actual violence after the match is over. For four days the percentage remains higher and then slowly it goes down. The same is true about football matches, about Olympics. They fit perfectly in their violent society. Even war fits perfectly. Nuclear weapons fit perfectly. I am nonviolent and I stand for love, not for war. And I don't see that there is any need... things like...

... love it is a violence, a type of war. Father and son, mother and daughter, husband and wife - they are not lovers; we have converted them into enemies. They are constantly fighting, and only when they are not fighting do we say it is love. The definition is negative. Between two battles there is a gap, a period of peace. But really, between two wars there is no possibility of peace. The so-called...

... peace is only a preparation for the coming war. There is no peace between husband and wife, no love. The gap that we call love is only a preparation for the coming fight. We think that there is health when we are between two illnesses, and we think that there is love when we are between two fights. It is not love. It is only a gap between fights. You cannot go on fighting for twenty-four hours, so at...

... message, “Peace on earth and good will among men.” On normal worlds this is a dispensation of world-wide peace; the nations no more learn war. But such salutary influences did not attend the coming of your bestowal Son, Christ Michael. Urantia is not proceeding in the normal order. Your world is out of step in the planetary procession. Your Master, when on earth, warned his disciples that his advent...

... will ever seek for that spiritual insight which is essential to living the golden rule. (598.1) 52:6.6 4. Political wisdom. Emotional maturity is essential to self-control. Only emotional maturity will insure the substitution of international techniques of civilized adjudication for the barbarous arbitrament of war. Wise statesmen will sometime work for the welfare of humanity even while they strive...

... friendship and love, it prepares you for conflict, enmity, war. Whenever there is competition there is bound to be enmity. How can you be friendly with people with whom you are competing, who are dangerous to you and to whom you are dangerous? Either they will win and you will be defeated, or you will win and they have to be defeated. So all your so-called friendship is just a facade, a formality. It is a...

... kind of lubricant that makes life move smoothly, but deep down there is nobody who is a friend. Even friends are not friends because they are comparing with each other, fighting with each other. This world has been turned into a war-camp by the education of ambition, politics. When a man turns inwards the problem arises: what will he do with his anger, enmity, aggression, violence? Now he is alone...

... inverted politicians. First they were fighting with others. Now there is nobody left - they are fighting with themselves. They are schizophrenic, they have divided themselves. It is a civil war now; they are fighting with the body. The body is a victim of your so-called MAHATMAS. The body is innocent, it has not done a single wrong thing to you, but your so-called religions go on teaching you that the...

... number would greatly increase if wars were stopped, because men release their madness in war, release it in great quantity. If wars were completely stopped for one hundred years, it is feared that ninety percent of all men would go mad. Men commit suicide more than women - double the number. The common belief is otherwise, you think that more women commit suicide. They talk about it, but they don't do...

... weak then he would say, "What will I do with strength? Am I to hurt someone? Am I to kill someone? Am I going to war?" If someone were to say to Mahavir, "Look, you have been enslaved for one thousand years," he would say, "There are two positions: either become a master of someone or a slave." Mahavir would say, "It is better to become a slave than a master - at...

... discipline is his own, it is inner. His discipline is self-discipline. And what you call organized, what you call order - what has that order given? War, violence, vice, hatred, hostility. What has it given? "An earth burns for clouds, love is born for those who writhe in pain. If a friend asks for your life, no problem; life has been given to the enemies. Sinners have always shunned me, I have sinned...

.... There is war, a continuous war in the world; the whole day he fights. When he comes home he is tired of fighting, tired of bravery - you cannot be brave twenty-four hours a day. Remember, nobody can be brave twenty-four hours a day - you can only be alert twenty-four hours a day. Except that, everything moves with the opposite. You come home, you are tired, you want rest; now you cannot fight - you...

... have been fighting the whole day. And what has your wife been doing the whole day? She has no competition, she has no war going on around her; she is just in the home, protected, the whole day she has been resting. In a way, there was no point during the whole day where she could show her bravery. So she is tired of being a coward, just a wife. You come home - she is ready. She will jump on you! Once...
