To Be Religious Is To Be Sensitive

The Word 'innocence' Means 'incapable Of Being Hurt'. To Have A Mind That Is Not Capable Of Being Hurt, Does Not Mean That It Has Built Up A Lot Of Resistance - On The Contrary, Such A Mind Is Dying To Everything That It Has Known In Which There Has Been Conflict, Pleasure And Pain. Only Then Is The Mind Innocent; That Means It Can Love. You Cannot Love With Memory, Love Is Not A Matter Of Remembrance, Of Time.

When You Call Yourself An Indian Or A Muslim Or A Christian Or A European, Or Anything Else, You Are Being Violent. Do You See Why It Is Violent? Because You Are Separating Yourself From The Rest Of Mankind. When You Separate Yourself By Belief, By Nationality, By Tradition, It Breeds Violence. So A Man Who Is Seeking To Understand Violence Does Not Belong To Any Country, To Any Religion, To Any Political Party Or Partial System; He Is Concerned With The Total Understanding Of Mankind.

A Cup Is Useful Only When It Is Empty; And A Mind That Is Filled With Beliefs, With Dogmas, With Assertions, With Quotations Is Really An Uncreative Mind.
