  1. Don't try to play smart. Why do you asked " I want to know what Osho, Jesus, the Buddah and Krishna have to say about this issue. If you could get back to me with that, I'd be greatful" , if it ultimately doesn't matter if a monkey has an ego or not. ?
  2. Don't divert the issue , accept that you were deceiving on this topic, or give source of information.
  3. Are you fully enlightened or from where did you stole the idea that 'revenge is not ego driven in animals. It's a programme.' Tell me the source or take your words back.
  4. What's the point ? when you already know this behavior is not ego driven in animals. It's a programme. What is the source of your information ?
  5. @GTITurbolover Chimps attack people after habitat loss https://www.newscientist.com/article/dn22369-chimps-attack-people-after-habitat-loss/
  6. Elephants carry out 'revenge' attacks on villages http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2388182/Elephants-carrying-revenge-attacks-village-herd-hit-killed-train.html
  7. There are cases when animals take revenge, how do you explain it ?
  8. @GTITurbolover If fear, anguish, anxiety, anger, violence, sadness happen without an ego, how can we drop them?
  9. You too have listened to Osho for hours, otherwise how do you know my half baked ideas are stolen from Osho ?
  10. Krishna had sixteen thousand wives. Now, what about the fifteen thousand, nine hundred and ninety-nine men who have lost their wives?
  11. Then, how can we drop fear, anguish, anxiety, anger, violence, sadness ?
  12. Calm down, I just want to educate myself. If you don't like my posts , you can always ignore them.
  13. @GTITurbolover Can fear, anguish, anxiety, anger, violence, sadness happen without an ego ?
  14. @Live Life Liam You are so cute ! ... but you speak so fast that I have to use subtitles to understand the contents, (English is not my first language.)
  15. Dolphins too have a evolved consciousness, not as developed as man’s, but the difference is only of degrees.
  16. Edgar Cayce gave prescriptions while in a trance. In Tibet, people would ask for medical advice only from those who were able to go into a trance.
  17. What about feelings, emotions, moods ? Agony, fear, anguish, anxiety, anger, violence, sadness -- all these things happen to the animal. When Ramana Mahrishi's cow 'Laxmi' was dying, Ramana was present there. Somebody asked Ramana, "Is this cow going to be born as a man?" Ramana said, "No. She will not need to be born as a man -- she has passed beyond that. She is not going to be born at all. She has attained enlightenment." Even animals, if they are receptive... and cows are very receptive. That's why in the India they have become sacred. It is not for no reason at all -- they are very receptive, open. They can grow in consciousness. No other animal can take this jump that the cow can take.
  18. Would you like to comment on Krishna and prophet Muhammad.
  19. Correct definition of enlightenment is not very important for beginners. It is more important that people learn about meditation, grow into a meditator. They will find their own way. What they learnt about 'Liberation' initially is not critical.
  20. Begin from where beginning is easy, otherwise you will begin to feel many things unnecessarily ¯ things that are not there. If you begin with sitting, you will feel much disturbance inside. The more you try to just sit, the more disturbance will be felt; you will become aware only of your insane mind and nothing else. It will create depression, you will feel frustrated. You will not feel blissful; rather, you will begin to feel that you are insane. And sometimes you may really go insane. If you make a sincere effort to 'just sit,' you may really go insane. Only because people do not really try sincerely does insanity not happen more often.
  21. Enlightenment could mean anything on this form awakening, savikalpa samadhi, nirvikalpa samadhi, full enlightenment. We are not using same language.
  22. Not impossible. It happens in ordinary life also. You can see a great painter: he forgets women completely. When he is painting there is no sex in his mind,because the whole energy is moving. You don’t have any extra energy. A great poet, a great singer, a dancer who is moving totally in his commitment, automatically becomes celibate. He has no discipline for it. Sex is the absence of meditation. If the lamp of meditation is lit, sex is gone. People who try to control themselves have chosen a very foolish way. Control will not happen, but they will become cold. That is the only way a man can control himself — to become frozen so that energy does not arise. People who take the vows of celibacy will not eat much; in fact, they will starve their bodies. If more energy is created in the body, then there will be more sex energy, and then they don’t know what to do with it. Sex is superfluous energy; sex is a safety valve. As meditation ripens, celibacy comes to fruit by itself. All effort is to be put into meditation. Real awareness always leads you beyond sex, and celibacy happens on its own accord.
  23. No scripture of the world discusses it. The question of discussion does not even arise -- no scripture even mentions it, and it has been happening for centuries. Perhaps they were afraid that if they say it... People are already not interested in enlightenment, and if you tell them that this is going to be the reward -- that you become enlightened and your fuse goes off -- this may prevent even those few who might try. They will say, "What nonsense it is. You work hard to attain enlightenment and what do you get as a reward? -- that you are finished! You are not even going to see yourself enlightened. So what is the point? It is a strange game.
  24. If somebody does not suffer from an inferiority complex he will not go into politics at all. Politics is the arena for those who suffer from an inferiority complex, because they want to prove to themselves and to the world that they are not inferior: Look, I have become the prime minister, or the president! Now who can say I am inferior? I have proved that I am not inferior. Politics attracts the people who are very egoistic and suffer from inferiority complex. If you are egoistic you are bound to compare yourself with others. The ego cannot exist without comparison. Politics attracts only the most mediocre minds in the world. It does not attract Albert Einsteins, Bertrand Russells, Jean-Paul Sartres, Rabindranath Tagores... No, it attracts a certain kind of people. People who are suffering from some inferiority complex are the people to be attracted towards politics, because politics can give them power. And through power they can convince themselves and others that they are not inferior, that they are not mediocre.
