... to dominate people, to torture them; it is a way of becoming powerful over them in the name of religion. 'Daddy is meditating', and the children cannot play, the wife cannot talk loudly, you cannot put the radio on, you cannot watch TV. 'Daddy is meditating.' And he may be simply meditating to have this control; otherwise, nobody listens to him, the wife never takes any care... And children are...
... greeting. When you face an enlightened being you have to bow three times - the body bows, the mind bows, the soul bows; you surrender utterly. That is just a gesture; it happens spontaneously. And when it happens spontaneously only then does it happen. Just two, three nights before, Hema came to see me. She may not even be aware of the Buddhist rule that when you face a Master you have to bow down three...
... certain rule of the game." My father said, "Whatsoever may be the case, you have to follow the rule; otherwise you make me embarrassed." I said, "I am not going to follow the rule, I am simply going to do what feels right to me. And if you cannot take me, I can go alone. I may not be standing by your side, but everybody knows that I am your son, so it will not make much difference. I...
... been of tremendous significance is the discovery of the disease AIDS. Now it seems humanity is between two ditches. Almost walking on a razor's edge. Either nuclear weapons will destroy it, or the disease AIDS will destroy it. The destruction is becoming more, more probable than it was before. It is easy to control the politicians, convince the politicians not to go forward, but how to convince the...
... Pope the Polack's, because the world is suffering from overpopulation, and he is preaching around the world against birth control, against the pill, against abortion. This man -- if I call him a criminal, I am not condemning him, only describing him -- perhaps he is the greatest criminal alive. And the same is my attitude about the Hindu leader, shankaracharya, Mohammedan leaders like Ayatollah...
... YOUR OWN PERSON.... WHY NOT KEEP IT WITHIN YOURSELF? A:* Because it goes on increasing if you share. It is profit-making. Q:* THERE ARE A FEW GIGGLES THERE. DEFINE WHAT YOU MEAN BY PROFIT-MAKING. A:* The more you share your bliss, your joy, the more it increases. It is a totally different kind of economics from that which you are aware of. In the ordinary economics the rule is if you go on sharing...
..., his children will close the doors for him, his parents will deny him. His society will condemn him, his friends will turn into enemies. Nobody would like even his shadow to be close by. Naturally, people will suppress it, they will not inform anybody, and that is the most dangerous part of it. The disease originates in homosexuality, and all the religions are preaching, in disguise, homosexuality...
... telling people against birth control, against abortion, against the pill, because these are all against God's will. As if he knows God, as if he knows God's will. And he is telling to people who's birthrate is the highest in the world, who are already over-populated, starving, in utter degradation, in slavery. He is teaching them this nonsense. He should be shot immediately! And the same is being done...
... people are divided in religious groups, their minds are so conditioned that they can't see the reality. In India, I was teaching for thirty years about birth control, and the only reward that I got was stones being thrown at me, shoes thrown at me, knives are thrown, attempts to kill me were made. The last attempt before I left India was made before ten thousand sannyasins in a morning discourse -- ten...
... SOCIETY THAT HAS NO CHILDREN IS A SOCIETY THAT DIES. A:* No. I want for twenty to thirty years total birth control, so the society comes to one-fourth of what it is today, and then there is no need for birth control. But there will be a need, certainly, to say that unless the medical board gives you permission to have a child, you cannot. We don't want blind children, we don't want crippled children, we...
... don't want children who will remain sick their whole life. We don't want retarded children. Why unnecessarily create misery in the world when we can manage very easily to produce geniuses? We can have more Albert Einsteins, more Yehudi Menuhins, more Ravi Shankars. Then why create these street people and Share-A-Home programs? So for thirty years complete total birth control, to let the old disappear...
... idea was to control, because when you have many communes control becomes impossible. I don't want to control. There is no need. I had given thousands names for centers around the world, and in these three and half year they destroyed those centers, forced the centers to close, told the people to move to one commune. Few moved, few have not moved. And they are not happy, because they were having their...
... the power are foreigners. I am going to fight up to the Supreme Court, and the fight is not going to be easy. I am going to say to the Supreme Court that, "If you have any sense of justice, then the first step should be tell Ronald Reagan to resign. Foreigners should rule this country. The country should go to the Red Indians. And then all foreigners either should move back to their country or...
... because it is pointless. So I don't count it as the most dangerous. It is the least dangerous. Population I don't count as the most dangerous because nature has its own way to cutting it down. It is cutting it down. Listen to the priests and the pope and Ayatollah Khomeini, and all other idiots. Listen that birth control is against God, and abortion is against God, but look what God is doing in Ethiopia...
.... Abortion would have been better; birth control even more better. So there is no problem about population. Population will die out on its own accord. You cannot help. By the end of this century, the population will be five billion people. And that is the end of population. More than that: millions of people will be dying every day around the earth. So population will be cut to its right size by nature...
... into a breakthrough. He fought against the whole tradition of Christian domination, so much so that finally he became Anti- christ. He was fascinated by the personality of Jesus, but because Jesus is at the root, unfortunately - not that he intended to be at the root of the Christian Church, but it happened so, that the whole Church is based on Christ's idea - Friedrich Nietzsche became Antichrist...
... the whole is very significant. The whole statement is: "Rejoice! God is dead and now man is absolutely free." Then it makes sense. "Rejoice that God is dead! Now there is nobody to dominate you. There is nobody above you; you need not be afraid of any God - you can forget all about God and Jehovah." Because the Jewish-Christian-Mohammedan idea of God is not of a very nice fellow...
... population." "How?" inquired the African priest. "Are you using new methods of birth control?" "No, no. After much experimentation we have seen that that doesn't work. So we have invented a very simple and effective technique: the 'Crunch Scrunch Method.'" "What is that?" asked the priest, intrigued. "In the big centers like Bombay and Calcutta, our...
...-identity. Misery gives you something to hold on to, you can cling to it. Bliss is very elusive. You can possess misery, you cannot possess bliss - on the contrary, bliss possesses you. You can control misery, you cannot control bliss. In bliss you have to disappear, the controller has to disappear. Very few people can afford that much, they are so afraid to go into the unknown. Misery is known; well...
... to control the destiny, you need somebody to look up to. And all belief is based in fear, and your gods are nothing but your fears personified. Your gods don't say anything about the God, they simply say something about your pathology, about your mind. A very religious man, deep asleep, had a dream. In his dream, God appeared and said to him: 'I have news for you - bad news and good news. Which...
... slight sensation, and he begins to cry. The cry has to be stopped by the parents, and they cannot do anything. But if the child goes on feeling every detail of sensation, the child will become a nuisance. And children do become nuisances, so parents have to curtail their sensitivity. The child has to learn resistance, the child has to learn control. And by and by the child has to divide his mind into...
... problem because the father and mother are all repressed. The moment the child, boy or girl, touches the genitalia, the parents become uneasy. This is to be observed deeply. Their behavior suddenly changes, and the child notes it. Something wrong has happened. They start crying, "Don't touch!" Then the child starts feeling that something is wrong with the genitalia, he has to suppress. And the...
... into the bungalow, then he would go running from his bungalow to his car. So I asked him, "What is the matter?" He said, "If you look at your servants they start feeling friendly, and then they start asking about money and this and that. If you talk with your children, then you are not the master, then you cannot control them." So he created a facade of insensitivity around...
