... they found one thing which is very important to understand: those animals disappeared because they became too big. It became impossible for them to carry their own burden. The body was created to keep their souls alive, but the body became so big that even to carry it was not possible for them. They died because of their size. They could not move; and when they could not move then where to find food...
...? Because of their heaviness of legs, their heaviness of body, they simply started falling down. They had life, but now life was such a small fragment, and the system that was created to protect that life became so huge.... The same has happened to religions. Fragments of truth have been found. Then to protect that fragment, systems have been created - -very articulate, very sophisticated. But then those...
... real suicide. You say, BEFORE TAKING SANNYAS I WAS ON THE VERGE OF COMMITTING SUICIDE. You have committed it - and you have committed it on a deeper plane. Destroying the body would not have helped much. You would have been born again in a similar pattern of body, because your mind would have remained the same. By committing suicide, by jumping into a river, or in the ocean, or from a hilltop, you...
..., Judaism, they start the story - they talk about the red- haired man - and Buddha ends it... nobody, not even you. He says, first drop ambition, drop desires. Don't think you are the body, don't think you are the mind; then don't think you are the self. Then in fact we should not talk about you because you are not. By and by we go on eliminating. First we say, drop worldly goals - because it will be too...
... head, but in your head. Look within. Ladders, boats, paths, words - this is the content of your head, of your mind. The container becomes much too important, the vehicle becomes much too important, the body becomes much too important - and then you become a blind man. The vehicle was just to give you the message - receive the message and forget the vehicle. The messenger was just to give you the...
... be. With minds, how can you be revolutionary? Mind is always orthodox, mind is always conforming, because mind is the dead part in you. This has to be understood. There are many dead parts in you for the body to throw out. Your hair is dead, that is why you can cut it easily and there is no pain. Your nails are dead, that is why you can cut them easily and there is no pain, no hurt. The body goes...
... genital organs, they cannot play with them. The father is afraid, the mother is afraid... everybody is afraid! Their fear comes from their own parents; they are neurotic. Have you not seen? A child is playing with his genital organs and immediately everybody jumps on him: "Stop! Don't do that again!" And he is not doing anything - he is simply enjoying his body, and naturally the sex organs...
... - you watch. The fifth question: Question 5: HOW CAN THE SEX ENERGY BE TRANSFORMED INTO SAMADHI? TANTRA AND YOGA HAVE A CERTAIN MAP OF THE INNER MAN. It will be good if you understand that map - it will help you, it will help you greatly. Tantra and Yoga suppose that there are seven centers in man's physiology - the subtle physiology, not in the body. In fact, they are metaphors. But they are very...
... much frustrated, very much depressed, because they start thinking so much energy is lost. NOTHING is lost. You don't have a dead quota of energy; you are a dynamo - you create energy, you create it EVERY day. In fact, the more you use it, the more you have it. It functions like the whole body. If you use your muscles, they will grow. If you walk, your legs will be strong. If you run, you will have...
... out: a dead body cannot be kept in the house, it has to be cremated. But we do not deal with belief systems with such understanding. Religion means living religion; when it becomes a creed it becomes a dead body. But we keep the corpse very carefully; because of the stink of the creed it becomes difficult to breathe. Religion unites but creeds fight and make others fight. Creeds break and make...
... without any movement of the body.... We have made the statues of Buddha and Mahavira out of marble. The reason is they were sitting like this marble. When they were living they were unwavering. But a marble statue of Meera will not be appealing. People have made it but it does not appeal. Meera's statue cannot be static, it has to be made of water - dancing, liquid, not static. Meera is a movement, a...
... those million watches. What I use is my own sannyasins' make, and this is the cheapest watch you can find in the whole world, and the best! And these are not diamonds, these are simple poor stones, and I'm not using any of her watches that she has brought. Q:* SHEELA BROUGHT THOSE FOR YOU? A:* Yes. Q:* SHE ALSO SAID THAT YOU THREATENED TO LEAVE YOUR BODY WHEN SHE TOLD YOU SHE WOULD NOT BUY YOU ANOTHER...
... finished, I cannot die without having a taste of fighting with the Germans. That's my last desire! Q:* MANY PEOPLE WANT A SIMPLE LAYMAN'S DESCRIPTION OF WHAT YOU TRY TO TEACH. SO FOR THEIR BENEFIT, HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE THE PROCESS IN OH, FIFTY WORDS OR LESS, TO LET THE AVERAGE PEOPLE UNDERSTAND. A:* My teaching is meditation. Meditation means to me, witnessing on three levels: action of the body...
... been spiritualists, have been condemning the Zorba and all that is natural to man, his body. They have been creating a repressive human being, sick, schizophrenic. My effort is to bring Zorba and Buddha together. So here you will find Zorbas dancing in the disco, and the same Zorbas in the morning doing meditation. And I don't see there is any conflict between the two. In fact, both are complementary...
... being taped, they have found the machinery on which all the telephones could be taped simultaneously. They were amazed to know that how sophisticated instruments were being used -- Nixon was left far behind. Three persons in the commune were poisoned. My own physical physician -- who has been taking care of my body in India and has been taking my care here - - she was afraid of him because he was too...
... close to me, and he may disclose something to me which she never wanted. So the only way was, she first tried to convince me that we have better physicians. I said it is not a question of better physician; it is a question of knowing my body and he knows my body. For ten years he has been looking after it and I am perfectly satisfied so there is no need to change. When I refused completely, then she...
... not brush his teeth because that is an effort to beautify the body. He will not take a bath because that is you are still materialistic. He was stinking! In a part of India like Bihar, which is full of dust and he was perspiring and dust, no bath, no mouthwash... but he is proving something. He must have lived in an immense tension. Not only that he was stinking to you, he must have been stinking to...
...?" But I was passing from the road anyway so I stopped and went to see the man and I had tears in my eyes. That man's legs have become what happens in a certain disease called elephantiasis -- when your legs become too fat and your whole body shrinks. (Tape side B) Even if he wanted to sit, he could not. And for twelve years the methodology that he was using... because it is not easy to stand for...
... have helped anybody. I am not talking only of the flowers, which are beautiful. I am also talking of the roots, which are ugly. And unless you understand the roots you cannot understand the flowers. I am talking about the whole man. Nobody has talked about the whole man. They never talked about your body, they never talked about your mind, they never talked about your psychology, biology... they...
... disappearing. At exactly six o'clock, they will be shot dead. It is ten minutes to six. You can imagine how concentrated they must have become. Dostoevsky writes, "Never again have I been so concentrated in my life. All else disappeared. I could hear my heart throbbing, I could see my breathing for the first time, I felt my body for the first time. I had never felt my body, never heard my heartbeat...
... cannot see the connection. And that is the whole clue to it. He cannot see the connection, the shout startles him, and he says, "Yes, Master." "See," said Nansen, "the goose is out!" Those seven layers of the bottle are crossed. "Yes, Master" -- in that moment Riko was pure consciousness, without any layer. In that moment, Riko was not the body. In that moment...
.... I say that there is love for you in my heart. But you cannot understand my love by dissecting my heart. If you try, you will come to the conclusion that I told a lie because nowhere will you find love within me. Love is not matter that can be examined in a laboratory. What the scientist will find will be things that love may have no knowledge of. He will come across the various organs of the body...
... within him?" he has no answer to this. He cannot find the illusion anywhere on his table. Or, if the man was telling a lie, the lie should be hidden some where within him. Actually, the scientist should say that the man who said he was in love is not there at all, because he cannot he found anywhere within the body. What comes within our grasp of understanding is unable to speak. But this the...
... mysterious, distinctive quality that He is and yet is absent. He is, but He is not present. He is everywhere, - not an inch of space is without Him, not a pore of the body, not a simple beat of the heart, not a particle of matter is without Him - and yet, He is not present. His non-presence is so complete that people question His existence. This is His mysterious quality: that He is everywhere and yet is...
