... you think Krishna did not talk about politics? He not only talked about politics - he participated. In fact, Arjuna was trying to escape from the war. It was Krishna who persuaded him, convinced him, that it was a war which had to be fought. Because when it is a question of evil and good forces, you have to be with the good forces. When I criticize Morarji Desai, it is a question of the past and the...
... a single moment the fog disappears. Death is there. Or, if you are driving at ninety, a hundred miles per hour and then suddenly at a turn you see that now everything is gone, for a moment the accident seems to be certain, absolutely certain - the fog disappears. Hence the appeal of danger - because only in danger do you sometimes feel that you are. Hence the appeal of war. When people go to war...
... at war, how powerful they become when they are at war? Everybody is vibrant with power. When countries are at peace, the power disappears. When two persons love each other, the egos disappear; there is no power. Two persons in deep love are blessed, but they are meek, delicate. Love is fragile like a flower. Hatred is powerful like a sword. So whenever you are negative, you feel powerful. And if...
... course, the Nordics, the Germans. It enhanced the German ego tremendously. "Even if the whole humanity has to be destroyed, it is worth destroying because the great goal of superhumanity is looming large on the horizon. Everything can be sacrificed for it." That's how he could convince his country to drag the whole world into a world war. Sri Aurobindo also talks in the same language - the...

... GRADUALLY. IS IT OKAY WITH YOU? OR IS A SUDDEN JUMP A NECESSITY? Girish Chandra, you remind me of a story: During World War I, RAF Captain Bainsby shot down the German ace Baron von Ribstein over English territory. The next day Bainsby visited the baron in the hospital. "Old chap," said the Britisher, "is there anything I can do for you?" "Yes," replied Von Ribstein. "...
... fact it may bring it closer and faster because sad people, miserable people, are dangerous people. Misery creates destructiveness. But if the whole humanity can start dancing, rejoicing, feasting - seeing that the threat is very close by.... The third world war can start any moment. The foolish politicians have enough atomic energy piled up to destroy this earth not only once but seven hundred times...

... war has not happened yet. It should have happened. Why it has not happened yet is a mystery. Having all these stupid politicians all over the world having all the power.... Just pushing a button and the process can be triggered, and within ten minutes the whole earth will be on fire - a fire that can melt steel and rock, a fire that will melt everything. The whole earth can explode. This is good...
... that kingdom had accepted the owner of the chariot as its superior. Then there was no need to fight. This way the chariot would move, and wherever people obstructed the chariot, then there would be war. If the chariot was not obstructed anywhere, then without any war, the superiority of the king was proved: he become a chakravartin - one whose wheel has moved around and whom nobody has been able to...
... departments should be functional; and when the world is one, many departments will not be needed - for example, defense. This takes almost seventy-five percent of the countries' income. Seventy-five percent of the income of the whole world will be simply saved, because there is no need for a defense department. Who is going to attack? - unless some other planet starts a war against the earth. But I don't...

.... So there is no question of any other planet creating a war against us. There will be no defense department - which is the most destructive department, killing millions of people unnecessarily, because all of the money goes on pouring into more and more death material. Who is interested in life? Perhaps, except this small commune, in this whole world nobody is interested in life. Politicians are...
... remain America, and Russia would like to remain Russia at any cost - even if the whole earth is destroyed! Because if the boundaries of the nations - which exist only in the maps - disappear, there is no reason for war. Seventy-five percent of the income of all the countries goes into creating destructive weapons, atomic plants, nuclear weapons. Seventy-five percent of human energy just to destroy...

... have already seven hundred times more energy then is needed to destroy humanity. What is the point now?" But the politician is in a political race with the Soviet Union; the Soviet Union cannot stop because America will go ahead. They are now completely balanced, and both are trying to be a little ahead of the other. But even if you are a little ahead, a nuclear war will be destructive of all...
... matter, if they are more alive and a little less efficient? It doesn't matter at all. Once we base education on awareness then people may not be so efficient in killing, in war; may not be so efficient as clerks, may not be so efficient as government officers - but it is good. Because if people are inefficient in killing, perfectly good! - less people will be killed. If the man who dropped the atom...

... right country to be born in. These people are always very very clever. They always choose the right countries to be born in. And then he managed to make the whole country a war camp. Less efficiency is not a problem. More awareness is needed. And when I say less efficient, I don't mean that necessarily it is going to be so. If you try anything... for example, walking. If you walk alert and aware, you...
... know that Rama's Sita is stolen, they know that she is stolen by Ravana. They also know the end of the story - that Sita is going to come back, that war is going to take place, that Rama is going to win the war - everything is known. It has been heard so many times that now there is nothing worth hearing; and when there is nothing new to be heard, sleep overtakes you. Repetition of the old invites...
