There is no end to man’s self-deception

Letter to Chinmaya

Acharya Rajneesh
A-1 Woodland, Peddar Road, Bombay-26, Phone: 382184

Dear Yoga Chinmaya,

Love. There is no end to man’s self-deception.

Because, whatever he is going to do, he can rationalise it.

One day one man boasted in the bar that he is a man of iron will and now he will show it by not touching wine again in his life.

But not even that day could pass.

And in the evening he came to the bar and said loudly for all to hear:

“I am stronger than my will-power. And, I fought the whole day and finally conquered my damn will-power. A double Scotch, please.”

Rajneesh ke Pranam
24.5.1971
