.... SAMSARA MEANS TO LIVE AS BODY, AS MIND, AS EGO.'Samsara' means to live outwards.'Samsara' means to live with things,'Samsara' means to live with the idea that all is matter and nothing else.'Samsara' means three poisons: power, prestige, pull - to live in the world with the idea of having more power, more prestige, more money, more pull... this and that; to live in things and for things. That is the...
... the beggar. "There is no money here." "Then some old clothes!" "Did I not say that there is nothing here?" shouted the Marwari. "Then why stay here?" answered the beggar. "Why don't you join me and we can go begging together!" One reply - and you are caught. Your reply means that you are, and you are willing. At least you are responding. That is...
... the plant, still living. You plucked them and killed them. You kill His flowers and offer them at His feet - and you are not ashamed? What can you give Him - everything is His! When you spend your money to build a church or mosque, what are you doing? You are returning to Him His own things, and yet you are filled with pride. You say, "I built the temple. I fed so many poor. I distributed so...
... be enchanted by all the arrangements for the celebration He has made in your house. A story that Jesus told time and again is well worth understanding. A rich man had two sons. One boy turned into a vagabond. When he came of age he demanded his half share, which he took and left for the city, for the village offered no means of spending his money: there were no gambling houses, no taverns, no...
... these Rs.10,000. It will help you to tide over your difficulty," he told him. Nasruddin closed his eyes and began to ponder.

But again you are substituting old goals with new goals, old ambitions with new ambitions; nothing has radically...
... only that, but loving your enemies - but he himself lashes out his anger. In the temple of Jerusalem he took a whip, started beating the money changers, and threw them out of the temple singlehanded. He must have been in a real fury, in a rage, almost mad. Now this... how to reconcile this? The way that Christians have found to reconcile - and Rudolph Steiner bases his own ideology on it - is to...
.... 'I will heal you,' he intoned. 'You out there in radio land, I will heal all of you. Just keep those checks and money orders coming, folks. And now for our healing period.... Put one hand on the radio and one hand on the part of your body that needs help, and I shall heal the sick.' The old lady put one hand on the radio and one hand on her heart. The old man put one hand on the radio and the other...
... remembered on the outside, and on the inside too. 'Cling to nothing'. Sometimes you cling to money, sometimes tot he wife, to the husband, and sometimes you start clinging inside to Krishna and Christ -- but you go on clinging. 'Cling to nothing' -- only then can you come to the very end of the world. and the end is the beginning and the chaos is creation. Another Zen Master, Hsuan Chien, says, 'Here in my...
