We go on unconsciously expressing our opinion about others. Do you know others? You don't know even yourself. How foolish it is to express opinions about others. You may have known somebody for a few days. You know his name, you know how he walks; you have known him in a few situations -- how he acts -- but do you know him? He is a vast continent. You have known only a fragment of it…
IT IS DIFFICULT NOT TO EXPRESS AN OPINION ABOUT OTHERS -- but take the challenge. Resist the temptation. Don't express your opinions about others and you will grow in understanding. Because your opinion becomes a barrier to understanding; it becomes a prejudice.

Never be ashamed of your nature; be respectful of your nature. Never have any condemnatory tone. That's what all the traditions have given to you as a heritage: condemnation of yourself. And in this tricky manner they have taken away your dignity, your self-respect.
I want to give you back your self-respect, your dignity, your dance, your crying, your love, your joy, your sadness, your silences. I want you to be as rich as possible -- all these feelings and emotions and moods are your treasures.
Nothing has to be denied, everything has to be absorbed; nothing has to be thrown away, everything has to be made part of an orchestra.

Mind is capable of deceiving itself, is capable of deceiving everyone. It is by this deception that the mind goes on becoming sick, goes on becoming unhealthy. You are deceiving others in such ways every day. Your smile is phony, your love is phony, your sympathy is phony, and your nonviolence is phony. Your reality inside is totally different. From outside you may be like the sannyasi, but for transformation to happen, you have to search and know who you are inside. You have to recognize the real man inside.

I am against any kind of organization because every organization has proved an enemy of truth, a murderer of love.
I trust in the individual.
Each and every sannyasin, alone, is my medium.
Each and every sannyasin is connected to me directly.
There is no organization between me and you. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐧𝐨 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐦𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐲𝐨𝐮. So the more empty you become, the more you will be able to receive my vibrations, my heartbeat, my song, the more you will be able to dance in tune with me -- and that is the only right way to spread the message. Because the message is not of language; the message is of being, of experience…
I want my message to remain from individual to individual -- pure and simple, immediate, without any mediators.

21/01/2026

A sannyasin has to live in the world.
Where else to live?
There is no other world, this is the only world.
One has to live here and yet
One can live like a lotus, untouched, unaffected.
Pleasure comes, pain comes,
One simply watches and everything passes by.
Pleasure passes by, pain also passes by.
Soon you realise that nothing remains
Only you abide.
The consciousness abides, your witnessing abides.
That is your true self,
That is your real being that abides.
Everything else is like a cloud coming and going
You are the sun. Many clouds will come and go
Don't be affected by them.
The day you don't cling to pleasure
And you are not afraid of pain and
You take both as if they are the same...
In fact they are
They are two aspects of the same coin.
When you are absolutely indifferent to both
Whatsoever comes you accept
Whatsoever goes you say good-bye to.
When it comes you say hello
When it goes you say goodbye
Then you are a real sannyasin.

Meditate totally and soon the springs
will be reached
But you have to put your whole being at stake --
nothing less will do;
hold back a bit and you will miss.
Time is short so gather all your strength;
whilst the opportunity is here
your effort must be total.

It is difficult to say whether you will have such
an opportunity in another life,
so everything must be finished in this one.
If the gates don't open this time
you will have to start from the very beginning next
time --

"Can't your message be more acceptable?"
That means I will have to compromise… Every compromise is a betrayal. I cannot compromise on any point, because it is not a business.
Who am I to compromise on behalf of truth? And a truth compromised becomes untruth. A truth is absolutely uncompromising.
But that has been always the case. All the masters in the past had to face it. They are always ahead of their time. It seems to be something in the very nature of life, that the people who are going to be decisive about human consciousness will always come ahead of their time -- because it takes one hundred years, two hundred years for people to understand them. If they come in their own time, then by the time people have understood them, they will be out of date. They have to be ahead of their time so that by the time human mind, human consciousness reaches the point where they can be understood, their message will be available.
So the greatest work for sannyasins is to keep the message pure, unpolluted by you or by others -- and wait.
The future is bound to be more receptive, more welcoming. We may not be here but we can manage to change the consciousness for centuries to come.

I am making you aware of silences without any effort on your part. My speaking is for the first time being used as a strategy to create silence in you.
This is not a teaching, a doctrine, a creed; that's why I can say anything. I am the most free person who has ever existed as far as saying anything is concerned. I can contradict myself in the same evening a hundred times, because it is not a speech, so it has not to be consistent. It is a totally different thing, and it will take time for the world to recognize that a tremendously different experiment was going on.
Just in a moment, when I became silent, you become silent.... What remains is just a pure awaiting. You are not making any effort; neither am I making any effort. I enjoy to talk. It is not an effort.
I love to see you silent.
I love to see you laugh.
I love to see you dance.
But in all these activities, the fundamental remains meditation.

12/01/2026

I teach an aesthetic consciousness. You should learn to appreciate beauty, you should learn to create beauty, you should behave in a beautiful way. Your life should be a long story of beauty, grace, love, peace. And whatever you are doing, there is no need to renounce the world -- there is nowhere to go. This is our world. We have to make it more beautiful, more graceful, more lovable…
Whatever you are doing, my approach is, make your doing your meditation. Don't think in terms that you have to leave something and then you will meditate. Those are tricks of the mind of postponing, and you will end up in some ugly situation.

09/01/2026

Before you can teach you must learn. But everybody wants to be a teacher without being a learner, your ego wants to be the master and not the disciple -- then you will become a false master. And then not only are you in danger, you will lead many others into danger. A blind man leading other blind men -- they are bound to fall in a pit.
Remember this, because ego wants to teach…
Remember well: don't give any advice to anybody unless you have learned.

06/01/2026

In old Tibet there is a saying that if you see God and you are not prepared, you will die. Truth is dangerous. And what I am giving to you here is truth, bare truth, naked truth. I am not even dressing it up in any way. So you have to be very, very careful. Your responsibility is great. If you cannot understand what I am saying then please know that you don't understand; don't interpret it in your own way. Keep your shoes off, otherwise there is every possibility that you will misunderstand, you will misinterpret. Then your whole life will go in a wrong direction.

04/01/2026

All these three things -- non-violence, non-possessiveness, authenticity and truthfulness -- arise without any effort on your part... IF you succeed in meditation. A man of meditation cannot lie. A man of meditation cannot hurt anybody; hence he is non-violent.
A man of meditation knows perfectly well that all things are ephemeral. You came into the world without anything, and you will have to go from the world without anything; so you can use things -- but you cannot possess them. You can use things just the way you use the railway train. Just because you are sitting in the railway train you don't start declaring that you are the owner of the train! You are using it for a time being; at one station you get in, at another station you get out.
Life should be taken just the same way. Whatever life gives to you -- use it, but don't become the owner.
