... so innocent - because they give you inclinations to be richer than others, to be more powerful than others, to be more prestigious than others.... The whole thing is based on comparison with the others. And to be rich you need an ocean of poverty around you; otherwise you cannot be successful as a rich man. The poverty of millions is an absolute necessity. To be successful in gaining power, you...
... have to destroy millions of people - their pride, their dignity, their very humanity. You have to reduce them into different kinds of slavery - economic, political, psychological, spiritual. Only then can you be in power. You have to keep the world constantly in a state of war, either cold or hot. Adolf Hitler, in his autobiography, had many insights. One of his great insights is that the great men...
... neither, you are just a witness. This witnessing is the very golden key, the master key that opens all the mysteries of existence. Feel the buddha as deeply, as intimately as possible. The buddha is another name of your witnessing power, and you have to live it around the clock, in all your activities. Be graceful, be aware, behave the way Buddha would have behaved. Go on reminding yourself the whole...
.... Sit for a few minutes just to recollect where you have been, the space, the golden path. This will prepare you for the lion's roar. Buddha has said that a man, when he becomes enlightened, gives a lion's roar. This series that we have started today is named JOSHU-THE LION'S ROAR. Remember your beauty as a lion, as a tremendous power, as a great aloneness. The moment you roar, all the valleys will...
... been found. So what you see is not always the whole truth; there is much more behind it. She destroyed hundreds of centers around the world which I had created. People were running them with love, joy, and new sannyasins were coming through those centers. She destroyed those centers and concentrated sannyasins into six communes in Germany. Everybody who has an ambition for power wants centralization...
.... Those centers were independent, they were not under anybody's rule. They were spreading my love, my message to people on their own; there was no need to destroy them. But they were not under her. In England Poonam had a beautiful commune - four hundred sannyasins were in the commune - and a beautiful place, lush green, with all the facilities. Sheela called Poonam here and took power over the commune...
... the world? Perhaps a good job, more money, more power, respectability. But are they worth it if they destroy your happiness, if they destroy you? if they destroy your life, if they kill you before your death comes? Millions of people in the world are dead - although they go on breathing, working. And perhaps it will take years for them to be recognized as dead, but they are dead. There is no smile...
... crucified him. All those miracles are fictions. If they were real, Jesus would not have been crucified. And if they were real, who would be able to crucify him? The man who can walk on water can also walk on air. The man who can make dead people come back to life - you cannot crucify him. And a man with such power falls three times on the way, because the cross is very heavy and he has to carry it on his...
... but with no object; it is puzzling to the mind. Mind knows the longing for money, the longing for sex, the longing for power, the longing for prestige. But longing without any object... it goes beyond mind. But it is the most beautiful experience to go through this fire. It is not hot; it is cool, it is calm, it is something magnificent. It makes you a temple. It will burn everything false and...
... within you, because people become more antagonistic about your inner transformation than anything else. They can tolerate your having great power as a president, as a prime minister, or being the richest man in the world. This they can tolerate. But they cannot tolerate it if your essential being in its crystal clear purity starts soaring. This is a great insult to them because they feel that this was...
.... The officials took her first into the front part of the building. They were very sweet - just the way communists are in Russia. They tried to bribe her. They said to her, "We will give you a green card without any difficulty, we will help you in every way. And if you help us and whatsoever we say you support, we will replace Bhagwan's secretary and put you in power." When she refused, when...
... she said, "Whatsoever you are saying is absolute lies, and I am not power- hungry," when they found that she could not be seduced in a friendly way, they forced her - four strong people for a tiny person, fragile, the body is dying - and they took her to the back. She told them, "Please, let me have my advocate with me." They did not allow it. And at the back of the building they...
... there. If in the South there are Christians it is because you have converted them, bribed them with education, food, better clothing, better possibilities to rise higher on the ladder of prestige, power, respectability. In the South there are Mohammedans; they have also been converted - at the point of the sword. Mohammedanism in a way is very straight and direct. Why go in roundabout ways: teaching...
... southern Africa, but what can I do? They will not listen to me. Even you are hearing me and not listening to me. And I am a very pragmatic, existential man. I am not a Don Quixote. But if I can transform the vision of millions of white people, there is a possibility that those millions of people will create enough energy, enough power to transform even those who are so backward. I cannot go anywhere - no...
... evolves something on his own, it works miracles. In fact it is the man who works miracles, not the science. My suggestion is - and this is my suggestion for everybody - always work a way out for yourself, and when you have found something on your own you will have tremendous power, and through that power you can help many people. So rather than borrowing, why not invent? And these days are very pregnant...
... compassion and my love for it has grown deeper. Humanity is a victim of power-seekers; of those mad people whose only ambition in life is their ego. The whole politics is nothing but an ego game. If we can live without politicians -- and they are not needed at all -- we can live without the boundaries of nations. Humanity is one. We can live as one world. Of course functional management will be needed but...
... bothers about self- realization. Because a self-realized man will be able to see the conspiracy, the business, the power-struggle. All the religions are fighting, for thousands of years. Strange... they all teach love and they all simply kill. Thousands of living people have been burned alive in the name of God. Politics and religion are the two most ugliest developments, the greatest diseases that have...
... functioning. Whether you are ambitious for money or whether you are ambitious for enlightenment, it does not make any difference to the mind. Whether you are seeking power or you are seeking truth, it makes no difference. The object is not the problem. Mind needs desire, ambition, expectation. Mind is always projecting into the future, and if you can stop the mind projecting ... Zen has found the best way...
... depth of the mystic, it has tremendous power of intellectual penetration. He has some insight. It is not beyond mind yet, but he is struggling hard to find a place where you are beyond good and evil -- because that is the place of nirvana. That is what enlightenment is: when you are neither good nor bad, just innocent. HAVEN'T YOU READ HOW IN THE OLD DAYS, MASTER TZU HU SAID, "THE PATRIARCH'S...
