You succeeded – and I have said again and again that nothing fails like success. You have reached
\na place that you wanted to reach, but you were not aware of the by-products. You have millions of
\ndollars, but you cannot sleep.<\/p>\n
When Alexander was in India he met a naked saint in the desert.<\/p>\n
He declared: \u201dI am Alexander the Great!\u201d<\/p>\n
The saint said, \u2019\u2019You cannot be.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said, \u2019\u2019What nonsense! I am saying it myself, and you can see my armies all over the place.\u201d<\/p>\n
He said, \u201dI see your armies, but one who calls himself The Great\u2019 has not yet reached to greatness,
\nbecause greatness makes people humble, as it is such a failure, an utter failure.\u201d<\/p>\n
Alexander was a disciple of Aristotle and he was trained by him in fine logic. He could not listen to
\nall this mystic garbage. He said, \u201d1 don\u2019t believe all these things. I have conquered the whole world.\u201d<\/p>\n
The naked man said, \u201dlf in this desert you are thirsty, and I offer you a glass of water, how much
\nwould you be able to give me for it? – and for miles there is no water.\u201d<\/p>\n
Alexander said, \u201d1 would give you half of my kingdom.\u201d<\/p>\n
The saint said, \u201dNo, I will not sell it for half of the kingdom. Either you can have the kingdom or you
\ncan have the glass of water. And you are thirsty and you are dying and there are no possibilities of
\nfinding water anywhere – what will you do?\u201d<\/p>\n
He said, \u2019\u2019Then naturally, I will give you the whole kingdom.\u201d<\/p>\n
The saint laughed; he said, \u201dSo that is the price of your whole kingdom – just a glass of water! And
\nyou think you have conquered the whole world? From today start saying you have conquered a
\nwhole glass of water.\u201d<\/p>\n
When man reaches to the cherished goals, then he becomes aware that there are many things
\naround them. For example, for your whole life you try to earn money, thinking that one day when you
\nhave it, you will live a relaxed life. But you have been tense your whole life – tension has become
\nyour discipline – and at the end of life, when you have achieved all the money you wanted, you
\ncannot relax. The whole life disciplined in tension and anguish and worry won\u2019t let you relax. So you are not a winner, you are a loser. You lose your appetite, you destroy your health, you destroy your sensibility, your sensitiveness. You destroy your aesthetic sense – because there is no time for all these things which do not produce dollars.<\/p>\n
You are running after dollars – who has time to look at the roses? and who has time to look at the
\nbirds on the wing? and who has time to look at the beauty of human beings? You postpone all these things so that one day, when you have everything, you will relax and enjoy. But by the time you have everything, you have become a certain kind of disciplined person – who is blind to roses, who is blind to beauty, who cannot enjoy music, who cannot understand dance, who cannot understand poetry, who can only understand dollars. But those dollars give no satisfaction.<\/p>\n
This is the cause of depression.<\/p>\n
