... BODY; NEITHER HAS HE FORM, NOR IMAGE, NOR QUALITY, NOR QUANTITY, NOR BULK; HE IS IN NO PLACE, NOR IS HE SEEN, NOR HAS HE SENSIBLE TOUCH; NOR DOES HE FEEL, NOR IS HE FELT, NOR HAS HE CONFUSION AND TUMULT, NOR DISTURBANCE OF MATERIAL PASSIONS; NEITHER IS HE WITHOUT POWER, SUCCUMBING TO THE CONTINGENCIES OF SENSIBLE THINGS; NEITHER IS HIS LIGHT IN ANY DEFICIENCY, NOR CHANGE, NOR CORRUPTION, NOR DIVISION...
... IS HE FELT, NOR HAS HE CONFUSION AND TUMULT, NOR DISTURBANCE OF MATERIAL PASSIONS; NEITHER IS HE WITHOUT POWER, SUCCUMBING TO THE CONTINGENCIES OF SENSIBLE THINGS; NEITHER IS HIS LIGHT IN ANY DEFICIENCY, NOR CHANGE, NOR CORRUPTION, NOR DIVISION, NOR LACK, NOR FLUX, NOR IS HE NOR HAS HE ANY OTHER SENSIBLE THING. Now this is just an old habit! The poor fellow cannot forget - a hangover. To express...
... towards power and you get attached to it, mind becomes power, mind becomes politics. Mind is just like a mirror: whatsoever you get attached to becomes fixed in the mirror, and then mind behaves like a film of a camera. Then mind is not just a mirror, it has become a film. Then whatsoever comes to it, the mind clings to it. These are the two possibilities, or two aspects of the same possibility. Mind...
... before. They have the power and the capacity to reach the moon; they have weapons that could destroy the whole world in no time. So what is this emptiness within? The cause is that everything is outside; nothing is within. There is no individuality, there is no soul. Everything is there, there is the capacity to reach the Moon but the strength to get to one's self is not there. Wealth is plentiful, but...
... says, 'I am a fit person. Please give me sannyasa,' I will immediately fold my hands (a sign of saying 'excuse me') because there is on need for a fit person to be a sannyasi. And one who thinks himself fit, will not attain sannyasa because sannyasa is the power of humility - humbleness. It blooms in humility. He who goes before God with a certificate of fitness will, find perhaps doors closed...
.... By the time they came in power, they were perfectly groomed by the czar, by the enemy. By the time they came in power, they started behaving in the same way against their enemies as the czar had been behaving with them. This you can see all over the world again and again. Right now this is happening in Iran. The Emperor is gone, and a far worse regime has taken his place. Khomeini is proving at...
... struck by its beauty that they become speechless, that for a moment their minds stop functioning. Only those few can know God. Only those few can become enlightened. John, you are fortunate. Of course, if you are educated you will be able to earn more money - but not more meditation. You will be able to have more political power because you will be more cunning, more clever - but not insight into your...
.... Every child passes through the stage when he is homosexual. Every boy, every girl, passes through a time when boys like boys and girls like girls. The fear is that if many people turn homosexual - and particularly in the past when the population was not big and every society wanted more numbers because numbers meant power.... To allow homosexuality was dangerous; it had to be condemned, absolutely...
... have to believe that he is infinite, that his power is infinite, he can do anything. And not only that: you also have to believe that he is omniscient because he may be omnipotent and he may be omnipresent, but if he is not omniscient then he can only take care of the present. That means when you have fallen in the ditch, only then can he help you, but you have fallen and broken your leg and you have...
..., because desiring is the same. Alexander the Great may have much money and much power, that does not matter; he is still desiring. The beggar may not have anything, but he is also desiring. The distance between you and your desire always remains the same. It is like the horizon: between you and the horizon the distance is always the same. You can go on moving towards the horizon your whole life; the...
... REBORN. BY VISITING HOLY PLACES, AUSTERITIES, COMPASSION, AND GOOD DEEDS,. YOU MAY GAIN RESPECT FROM OTHERS; BUT HE WHO LISTENS TO GOD AND MEDITATES ON HIS NAME, HIS HEART IS FILLED WITH LOVE AND HE IS DEEPLY CLEANSED. ALL VIRTUES ARE YOURS, O LORD. NOTHING IS IN ME. WITHOUT VIRTUOUS ACTIONS, NO TRUE DEVOTION EXISTS. YOURS IS THE ONLY TRUE WORD. YOU ARE THE SOUND. YOU ARE BRAHMA. YOUR POWER IS...
... glory be! That is all I can say. I can only sing your praises, O Lord. I am unworthy, I deserve to get nothing. I am so worthless that all I can do is sing Your glory - that is all. YOURS IS THE ONLY TRUE WORD. YOU ARE THE SOUND. YOU ARE BRAHMA. YOUR POWER IS MAGNIFICENT AND SELF-DIRECTING. WHAT WAS THAT TIME, WHAT DATE, WHAT SEASON, WHAT MONTH WHEN YOU ASSUMED FORM AND CREATION BEGAN? THE PUNDITS...
... responsible positively, and you gain much power. The moment you know that if you are bad it is because of you, then you can be good. Then it is in your hands. You gain power, you become powerful. You release much energy, and only this releasing of energy can be used for the inner journey, just as when an atom is split, much energy is released. That is what is meant by atomic energy. Just like that, if in...
... to the colleges, to the universities. Somebody writes can I send his son to the Oxford or to the Cambridge. All their needs are basically physiological. They are not the people who can be interested in meditation. They cannot look at the stars - their eyes are focused on the earth, their necks are paralyzed; they have lost all power to see that which is beautiful. Even if they look at the moon they...
... opportunistic. They fit with the status quo - whosoever is in power, they serve the master. They are just like dogs: the moment they feel that the master has changed, they change their attitude also, they start wagging their tail before the new master. He says: IT IS NOT A STRATEGY OF OPPORTUNISM... Then what it is? And this statement he has made in Philippines, one of the poorest countries in the world. When...
... away from you. I make you almost empty - nothing to hold, nothing to cling to. I leave you alone. Fear arises. Now Maitreya is completely left alone - no money, no power, no prestige? no political status. Everything gone, he is just a bhikkhu. I have made a beggar of him; and he was rising high. He was rising higher and higher. He would have been a Chief Minister somewhere by now, or he may have been...
... again arise: "Maybe there was something. Otherwise why is the whole world interested in wealth and politics and power? There may be something. Maybe I missed the train. I should have continued; I should have seen, experienced the whole thing." If you have succeeded in a certain desire, the desire itself makes you desireless. The success kills the desire automatically. Then even with less...
