... college and become a doctor, or to the engineering college and become an engineer. But I should become somebody who earns money, who has respectability in the society. And I said to them, "You know me perfectly well: I may want to become a beggar just because I don't want to be respectable. What is the meaning of getting respect from all these retarded people? Even if all these idiots make me...
... happened once, an American super-rich millionaire asked Picasso, "I want a few of your paintings." Picasso said, "But my paintings are very costly." The man said, "Money does not matter at all. Give me two paintings and whatsoever is the price - I will not ask the price - I will simply give it to you cash." Picasso was in difficulty because he had only one painting ready...
... money and the land, and everything that had been donated to the organization, to their original owners. And he said, "I don't want any followers." He has been continually saying from that time, "Nobody is my follower," but there are people who say, "We are Krishnamurtiites." Now, what can you do? And he is still alive, and every day he is saying, "Nobody is my...
...-conceit. From that ego gains strength. It gets fed from all directions and becomes powerful. The deep pride that we find in the so-called saints and renouncers is not something sudden. At the root of it, there is the conduct resulting from forced efforts and the habit which has developed through efforts. This cultivated character becomes the source of development of pride, just like earned money...
.... 'Maybe some miracle will happen and I may be saved.' When you cling to money, you are clinging to a straw. When you cling to power and prestige, you are clinging to a straw. When you cling to name, family, bank balance, you are clinging to a straw, because nothing can save you. Death is coming. Death is rushing towards you. Whatsoever you do is useless - it will not save you. And what does a Master do...
..., ignorance and darkness of life. Soul is the fruit of struggle and strife. Those who lose truth have only stories to tell. If you meet a poor man he will only be talking about money; if you meet a sick person he will be talking about health. Nobody talks about health except those who are sick. A healthy man just lives; when does he have time even to talk? Does a sick person ever sit quietly and talk about...
... slate, but every moment something is being written on the clean slate. The universities are slaves, the colleges are slaves - because they depend for their existence on the government money. So the politicians dominate.... Just now, because Ronald Reagan is against Charles Darwin's theory of evolution... Being a fundamentalist, fascist Christian, he can only see that the world was created - that is...
.... If he was accumulating money - your saints are accumulating - then you would have forgiven him; it was not a big problem, greed is not a big problem. Whatsoever he was doing you could have forgiven him, but sex? - impossible! We have become so deadly against it that Christians say that Jesus was born without sex. Because how can Jesus be born out of sex, the original sin? How can Jesus be born out...
..., because stitching is a complicated affair; you will have to accept somebody's help, you may need money - and all these things have to be avoided. The Hindu monk tries to avoid as much as possible. He has the barest necessities: a begging bowl - which is not made of metal; it is made of a coconut cut in two pieces, and the hard shell of the coconut becomes the begging bowl. You can attach a small string...
... sannyasins left. Now Poona is in ruins. Just by the Poona commune there was a five-star hotel, the Blue Diamond. Before we reached Poona it was on sale because they were not making money, they were losing. It was a beautiful, big building, but only fifteen percent of the rooms were ever filled.
