No, I will not suggest it to you – although the idea is great, but just as an idea – don’t practice it. In practice, use the pill and let sex become a casual fun between friends. A nonserious affair.

In my opinion, you are the greatest humorist of all times. Is that true?

At least for you it is true. About others, I don’t know what they think, people have different ideas about me. I enjoy all kinds of ideas. Perhaps you are right; that’s why I can even enjoy people calling me the world’s most notorious man. I enjoy that too; at least I am still the world’s most notorious man. Who cares whether it is notorious, famous, respected or disrespected? One thing one is certain, that it has to be the world’s most – then you can put anything behind it! I am absolutely in agreement.

Are your sannyasins the witches of today’s time?

That’s true! Everybody can see it. The word witch means a wise woman, and where can you find wise women other than my place? I have added something more…

In the old days the witches were all old – my witches are all young! They were all dirty and disgusting looking – my witches are beautiful. I have improved upon the idea.

Is it possible to live without jealousy unless one is enlightened?

It is possible. If you are enlightened then the question of jealousy does not arise at all; then it is impossible to have jealousy. Before enlightenment it is possible to live without jealousy. You just have to look into the causes of jealousy.

What makes you jealous? – possessiveness. Jealousy itself is not the root. You love a woman, you love a man; you want to possess the man or the woman just out of fear that perhaps tomorrow he may move with somebody else. The fear of tomorrow destroys your today, and it is a vicious circle. If every day is destroyed because of the fear of tomorrow, sooner or later the man is going to look for some other woman because you are just a pain in the neck. And when he starts looking for another woman or starts moving with another woman, you think your jealousy has proved right. In fact it is your jealousy that has created the whole thing.
