Nature versus Material Life Now, you notice in the nature its so matching, you know. Nothing gross, nothing loud - its so beautiful, this is red but it has green to match it. This Mother Earth knows everything, She understands everything, She does everything, but what do we do for Mother Earth? - Is to run after artificial things, machinery, this thing - and now a new thing has come, is computer. Its all right if you want to write letters to someone, but otherwise its quite maddening, you know. And this computer will make our brain absolutely zero. Well be paralyzed, we wont be able to think 2 + 2. So, anything that you want to use also, should have its maryadas, dont go beyond it. If you take to swimming, youll go on swimming till you get sick. If you are horse riding, youll go on horse riding till you fall down. You see, this is also a kind of a life which has no maryadas - like greed has no maryadas, thats how also this kind of nonsense, I am only fond of this, I am only fond of this. You are a human being, you should never say like that. On the contrary you should say I must learn this, I must know this, what is this all about? It is very important, otherwise your personality will be a dwarf personality - and ultimately people end up in money. I dont understand, I cant even count 200 notes, cant even. I dont know about money, I should say, but Im good at mathematics but I dont know whatever money you are giving goes direct to them and they do it what they like. Now, if somebody says, How much you got for this? I dont know? How much for royalties? I dont know, because Im not interested. Im not interested. What is there to be so much interested in money? But I get money, all right, no problem, never a problem. Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi - 4 October 1997, extract from evening before Navaratri talk, Cabella, Italy.
