... religion has become a graveyard. You can see the vibe of this death in the churches, in the synagogues, in the temples, in the mosques. Wherever your so-called religious people gather together they are always deadly serious. They cannot laugh - they have become incapable of laughter. They are absolutely cold, they cannot be warm, because they are afraid of warmth. Warmth means love, warmth means joy...
... long that it must have destroyed her brain cells, and without those brain cells she may not be ever able to come to consciousness again" - and she NEVER came back to consciousness. Three years more she lived and then died in the coma. Now, these four years of life... do you call it life? It is not death, certainly, but it is not life either. It is suspension of life; just the minimum of life is...
... my part. If he is ready - and I can see he is ready; my death has been a shock to him and has made him ready. I am happy that even my death has helped somebody to be ready, to listen." He answered his question. The question was not philosophical, theological, intellectual. The question was really authentic, sincerely spiritual. But that man had been missing for so many years, just because of...
... swim. If you can swim, then what is the problem? One thing is certain: it is humanly possible. That's enough. At the most I can be drowned - so what? One day everybody has to die. It does not matter." He said, "You are dangerous. I will teach you how to swim." I said, "No." I told him, "You simply sit here and I will jump in. Don't try to save me if I am dying; even if I...
... could have meant death." Swimming is a knack, it is not an art that anybody has to learn. You have just to be thrown into water. You are bound to start splashing and throwing your hands and your legs about, and soon you will find that if you throw your hands and legs about in a harmonious way, in synchronicity, then the water itself keeps you up. I had told that old man, "I have seen dead...
.... If you say, "I don't want to be thirsty," then you will miss that beautiful moment of deep quenching of the thirst. If you want to know what light is, you will have to pass through a dark night; the dark night prepares you to realize what light is. If you want to know what life is, you will have to pass through death; death creates the sensitivity in you to know life. They are not...
... is endless. There is no goal and this is the beauty of live, because if there was an end, a goal, that would mean nothing but death. Live is an ongoing affair. It goes on flowering from eternity to eternity. Enlightenment is a tremendous experience, so vast, so mysterious, so blissful that people who have achieved it, have stopped there. They have thought that the whole has arrived. I am basically...
... blossom to your own potentiality, to your individuality. I am an individualist. My vision about man is that he needs no organization. He needs freedom from all organizations. All organizations cripple him, blind him, destroy him. The life of the organization is the death of the individual. Because the organization demands obedience. It is not a question of right and wrong. It is a question that you...
... has renounced pleasure, he has lost all zest for life, all will even to breathe. Even to wake up in the morning... for what? Since he has renounced, he has died a kind of death, he is no more a living being. Although he breathes, eats, walks, speaks... I say unto you: his life is only posthumous. He is like a ghost, who has died long ago. The moment he renounced existence, he renounced life also; he...
... understood will I leave this pillar; otherwise, I will die with this pillar." He said, "My God, to ask you a question is to create trouble." And the crowd started abusing the person. They said, "Why did you disturb Al-Hillaj? What kind of question have you asked?" He said, "It is strange, I had asked a simple question, How to be free? Rather than answering, he went to the...
.... Even after death, the door is locked. You may think it seems to be utter foolishness, but the man was laughing about you in all his acts, all his statements. This act is also simply laughing at your stupidity. What do you think about your security, your bank balance? You can go bankrupt. What do you think of your security, your husband, your wife? If either of you is intelligent enough, he will...
... least once in your lifetime. So even the poorest Mohammedans collect money, sell their houses, their farms, because it is an absolute necessity that before they die they must go to Kaaba. Junnaid was getting old and he was very poor, so he collected money from his neighbors. Nobody refused because the money was for the journey to Kaaba; and everybody is told that if you support a Mohammedan on his...
... that one day you are alive. Then who goes on breathing within you? You do not know. Then suddenly one day you are no more. No one asked you. It is not your decision to be born and to die. But something happens and goes on happening. Something happens and you are born, and something happens... you are no more, you disappear again. How can you say 'I'? No decision of yours has been used - NO DECISION...
... attachments, and now he is weeping. This man Rinzai has been teaching us that the soul is immortal - that only the body dies, and the body is nothing: dust returns unto dust. So why is he weeping now?' " They demanded an answer. They were logical, because if a man says that the soul is immortal, then death should have no meaning. "Then why are you weeping?" they said. "You say that no...
... unfulfilled and cannot see a way leading anywhere. All goals are missed because he has made a certain goal, he has achieved it, but it gives no satisfaction - not even to Albert Einstein. Although his name will remain as one of the greatest scientists ever, it gave him no contentment. Inwardly he was frustrated. At the moment of death he said, "If there is another life - the way the Hindus believe - I...
... time you should also laugh." He said, "From now onwards you are not going to anybody's death, when somebody's body is being taken to the crematorium." I said, "I will not go with you. That is decided. But I will go on my own." In fact that is the only procession at which nobody prevents you. If you go into some marriage procession people prevent you, because you are not...
... physiological differences between men and women. A few things happen later to women. For example, death happens five years later to women than to men, and that can be a criterion. Meditation is a self-willed death. So there will be a five-year gap.... Men will become bored five years earlier than women. Women will try for five years more and then, seeing that the whole thing is useless, it is better to...
