... doing it in different ways: somebody is running for money, somebody is running for power, somebody is running for respectability, somebody is running for virtue, saintliness. But if you look deep down, they are not running for anything, they are running from. This is just an excuse, that somebody is running after money madly; he is deceiving himself and the whole world. The reality is that money gives...
... him a good excuse to run after it, and hides the fact that he is running from himself. That's why when he accumulates money, he comes to a point of tremendous despair and anguish. What has happened? That was his goal; he has achieved it - he should be the happiest man in the world. But the people who succeed are not the happiest people in the world, they are the most miserable. What is their anguish...
... evolution. Intelligence is certainly rare but the people who have gathered around me - just the fact that they had the courage to be here is enough proof of their intelligence. Now you have to put your intelligence into action. "My God," sighed Paddy, "I had everything a man could want - the love of a gorgeous woman, a beautiful house, plenty of money, fine clothes." "What...
... help it. And even when you are helping, you will sometimes be thinking whether to help it or not - because it has no utility in the world, it is very non-utilitarian. It is beautiful but it has no utility. It is like a beautiful flower: you cannot eat it, you cannot earn much money out of it. You can enjoy it, you can have great celebration through it, but that is not utilitarian. Money-wise it means...
... nothing - and we live money-wise, that's why we cannot live wisely. So great help will be needed from your side. When the heart starts singing, pour all your energies into it. Help it to sing, so it sings and starts dancing - because its singing is going to be your joy; there is no other joy. And its dance is going to make your life a delight; there is no other delight. So find some time to sing and be...
... forgetting things, that simply means that somewhere interest is missing, or you have some other interest. Maybe you want to earn money out of it, your interest is in the money but not the work - then you will start forgetting things. So just watch your interest. And whatsoever one is doing, if one is doing it with deep interest, there is no need to worry about remembrance - it simply comes. You forget only...
... you go on crying unnecessarily. Things which are very simple have been made unnecessarily complicated, just to cheat you, exploit you. Religion has functioned in the world as the greatest business - greatest in two senses. It accumulates more money than any other business and it goes on selling things which are invisible. Now, selling things which are invisible is a great business. You purchase...
... paradise. And everything they give they see with their own eyes going into the pockets of the priests. But perhaps from those pockets there are invisible ways - the money that they are giving to the pope will reach. In the Vatican the pope has a bank. It is really a branch of the original bank; you deposit in the branch and it will reach the original bank. You need not be worried about it. And this pope...
... goes on wasting your money in unnecessarily traveling here and there. He came to India. And wherever he goes, the first thing he does is to kiss the earth. He could have done it in the Vatican. There was no need, the earth is the same everywhere, but certainly tastes are different.... When he touched down at New Delhi airport I was in Nepal, and I said to my people, "This is his first taste of...
... Hinduism." Because you cannot taste earth in India unless you taste cow dung, and that is the only essential Hinduism. And he wastes your money, which you think is going to be deposited in paradise. On a single trip to Australia he wasted six million dollars - twice the cost of the visit of the Queen of England, Elizabeth. And three times he has been around the world, wasting six million, eight...
... million dollars on each trip. This is your money. Once George Bernard Shaw was asked, "Do you think a man can live joyfully just keeping his hands in his pockets and doing nothing?" George Bernard said, "Yes, it is possible. Just one thing has to be remembered: the pockets must not be yours. Just keep your hand in somebody else's pocket." That has been the whole religion. And they...
... message that they are spending fifty thousand dollars per day, so that means our people have to look into the books well because from where they have got the money? They have left the commune in fifty-five million dollars debt. So it was really turned out to be a criminal gang. But every man deep in the unconscious has the possibility. Just one needs opportunity. They got the opportunity. Now it will...
... democracy not dictatorship. To me, individual and respect for his individuality are highest values. And no individual should be humiliated. So now I will have to teach them that, "You have to be aware of your own power elite, too. And anything you see, immediately inform me." This was a ugly nightmare but they could not do any harm to the commune. They tried. Money does not matter; if they have...
... taken some money, that is not much of a thing to be bothered with. But otherwise they have not.... And all the peoples that have left are asking to come back, and I am calling them that they can come back. And there has been such a rejoicing. People have been dancing for hours in the street when they heard that Sheela and her group has left -- as if they are freed from a concentration camp. So in a...
... same suspicion, because if they could do such things here they may have done the same thing with Pragyan. Pragyan is missing and Dipo has withdrawn all the money from the bank which was commune's money and he is not entitled to take it for his personal use. So they phoned and asked, "Should we give him to the police?" I said, "Immediately, because once Dipo is behind the bars Sheela...
... love for truth at any cost. Only those who gamble everything for truth are the blessed ones. The world of religion is not the world of the businessman. It is the world of the gambler, who risks everything on the unknown - he does not know what is going to happen. I am reminded... A Japanese actor earned much money in Hollywood, and after earning so much money he thought to go back home and relax...
... you all would think I was going to commit suicide, but I'm not the one to accept defeat. I will earn money again, and I will come back to this hotel to put down just as much money - more than this time!" And he went back to Hollywood. When he came back after earning enough money, more than the first time, that gambling place had closed. It was too risky. The man said, "What is the matter...
... geese8 that strip the people of their cloaks;9 thus ruled R. Nahman; [The seizure is valid] only if it took place during the lifetime [of the original owner]. The men of Be-Hozae10 once claimed a sum of money from Abimi the son of R. Abbahu, who sent it to them by the hand of Hama the son of Rabbah b. Abbahu. He duly went there and paid them, but when he asked them, 'Return to me the...
... some other claims'.14 What is the law in respect of the agent's liability to refund? — R. Ashi replied; We have to consider the facts. If he15 said to him. 'Secure the bond and pay the money' he16 must refund it; [but if he15 said.] 'Pay the money and secure the bond', he is under no obligation to refund it. The law, however, is not so. He16 must refund it in either case...
... seemed to betray no resentment at the affront. Yet this is the only meaning which can be attached to the text of cur. edd. Preference is consequently to be given to the reading of Asheri and Alfasi (v. n. 1); and what Raba meant was that, as a relative, R. Papa's evidence could not be accepted]. Even though no other witness is available Lit.. 'It is a thing'. In money matters, surely, the evidence of...
.... Ashi: This33 is a quite satisfactory explanation where betrothal was effected by means of money;34 what, however. can be said [in a case where betrothal was effected] by cohabitation! — The Rabbis35 have assigned36 to such a cohabitation the character of mere prostitution.37 Come and hear: R. Eleazar b. Jacob stated, 'I heard that even without any Pentateuchal [authority...
... annulled. Transforming retrospectively the money of the betrothal (cf. Kid. 2a) given to the woman at her first marriage into an ordinary gift. Since the hefker of money comes within the power of a legal tribunal the Beth din is thus fully empowered to cancel the original betrothal, and the divorcee assumes, in consequence, the status of an unmarried woman who is permitted to marry any stranger. The...
... explanation of the retrospective cancellation of the original marriage. V. supra note 3. A woman may be betrothed by means of money, deed or cohabitation. V. Kid. 2a. In compliance with whose laws and ordinances all betrothals are implicitly effected. Lit., 'made'. From the moment a divorce is annulled in such a manner, the cohabitation, it was ordained, must assume retrospectively the character of mere...
... rejoined: I grant you that on the view2 that [even] if the purchaser possesses money he has no right to bar the creditor from land by paying in specie, your argument would be sound, but according to the view that a purchaser possessing money can bar the creditor from the field by paying him in specie, why should he not say to the creditor, 'If I had had money, I would surely have been able to bar...
.... That according to R. Simeon payment is to be made for amelioration to the extent of a half or third or quarter. [The change involved does not confer ownership enabling him to make restitution by payment in money.] V. p. 552. n. 6. V. p. 552. n. 5. I.e., a palm branch used for the festive wreath on the Feast of Tabernacles in accordance with Lev. XXIII, 40. V. p. 543, n. 6. Cf. Suk. 32a and Rashi...
... taught: 'R. Joshua b. Karhah says that a debt [recorded] in an instrument should not be collected from them,14 whereas debts [contracted by mere word] of mouth may be collected from them because this is no more than rescuing one's money from the hands of the debtors.')15 But why was it necessary to state that the halachah was in accordance with R. Judah? For his view was in the first...
... laws: 'Whichever party departs from the terms of the agreement is at a disadvantage, and so also whichever party retracts from the argument has an inferior claim.'22 Our Rabbis taught: 'Where money was given to an agent To Part b Original footnotes renumbered.

...; whereas in the latter12 it was bought for merchandise.13 Moreover, in the West they were even amused14 at the statement of R. Johanan regarding the view of R. Judah.7 for [they said] who was it that informed the vendor of the wheat so that he might transfer the ownership of the wheat to the owner of the money?15 R. Samuel b. Sasarti demurred: If so, why not also say the...
... would surely acquire title to it.32 Shall we say that this differs from the view of the scholars of the West33 who stated: Who indeed informed the vendor of the wheat so that he may transfer the ownership of the wheat to the owner of the money? — As far as that goes there would be no difficulty, as this could hold good where e.g., the vendee made this known to the owner of the...
... borrower's debt is cancelled, and the person who bought the note of indebtedness from the lender loses his money: (Cf. B.K. 89a; B.B. 147b.) In the same way the person who bought the Kethubah from the wife while it was still unpaid loses his claim when the wife cancels the Kethubah on being paid by the husband in Tishri. Which shows that the wife has not sold it, as otherwise the buyer would have taken...
... said that the scribe happened to meet him [the lender] and wrote [the note],27 but even if it is in his own handwriting28 it is invalid, [for we assume that he wrote it] thinking, 'The borrower may come at dusk and pay me, and if I do not give him [the note of cancellation] he will not give me the money. I shall write [the note now], so that when he brings me the money I shall give it to...
... distinguishing mark'. And the Clerk may have rolled them together and then lost them. Who received the documents back after paying their debts. And the clerk lost them after writing them, so that they were not used at all, and no money was lent.
