... slavery is forced on you it is ugly and political; it is inhuman. One should rebel against all kinds of slaveries, that kind of slavery. But there is a totally different dimension: you can surrender on your own, not that it is enforced on you, but out of your love and trust you surrender. Then surrender is beautiful. Only a surrendered person is a follower. A follower is not one who believes in a...

... done only by the individual - not by religions, not by political parties, not by any other kinds of organizations.

... the great purges of 1936 - 1938 to which most of the political émigrés living in the Soviet Union fell victims. Yezhov was head of the N. K. V. D. at the time; in 1939 he himself was dismissed and shot.) they were both arrested simply because they were talking German in the street. That was sufficient for the M. V.

... introduced into the small circle of German anti-fascists who had arrived as political émigrés in the Soviet Union and had managed to survive the continual purges.

It is dangerous to the Pope, it is dangerous to the...

... a sense of duty you will become their torturers: you will become very dominant over them. It is a way to dominate. it is political. Start by massaging their feet, and soon you will be at their necks. Soon you will kill them. And naturally, when you start massaging their feet, they spread their feet. They say 'Perfectly okay', and they don't know what is going to happen. All public servants, sooner...

... or later, become politicians. That is the right way to start your political life: become a public servant. Serve people out of sense of duty, and then, sooner or later, you can jump on their heads; then you can exploit them. Then you can crush them, and they cannot even utter a cry, because you are public servants. To become masters of people, the beginning is in public service. My whole approach...
... whole idea that you should interfere in other people's life is being brought by the political leaders, by the religious leaders. They have conditioned the whole humanity that you have to serve others, you have to sacrifice yourself, that you have not to be selfish.

They both are the same type of people -- this is just a political conspiracy. It depends on a certain psychology of people, and democracy is using it. People's memory is very short -- three years. So four years, five years, one...

... democracy -- it is only temporary dictatorship. Four years, five years or whatsoever time in different countries...

... left, twenty police officers, and it was not our case -- it was a police case. They had caught him red-handed.... Still he was left, and the magistrate must have felt very bad. From a common friend -- a doctor -- he informed and asked my apology. He said, "Just forgive me, because that man belongs to a political party and the pressure is too much on me. The government wants him to be released...

... come here -- this festival two-hundred-fifty Indians were here -- so there is no problem about that. But whenever something becomes a challenge, then I cannot move. I have made it clear: four years they have not been able to decide. They know perfectly well: yes they cannot say because of the political pressure; no, they cannot say because there is no ground for saying no. And I fulfill their five...

One wants to be supported twenty-four hours a day because the false, without support, cannot stand. The...

But if they don't allow me to enter Russia, then sooner or later my people will have to fight, inside Russia, legal battles for my entry, because I do not want to break any country's law. I am a law- abiding person. But I will find ways to meet them. I have been finding ways to send them literature, to send...
