These are THE FIVE TRICKS THROUGH WHICH MAN HAS BEEN TURNED INTO A SLAVE -- into an ugly phenomenon, a crippled.
THE FIRST IS: KEEP MAN AS WEAK AS POSSIBLE IF YOU WANT TO DOMINATE HIM. If the priest wants to dominate you, or the politician wants to dominate you, you have to be kept as weak as possible.
IF IN CERTAIN CASES EXCEPTIONS ARE ALLOWED -- that is, when the services of fighting our enemy are needed, only then -- otherwise not. The army is allowed many things which other people are not allowed. The army is in the service of death; they are allowed to be powerful. They are allowed to remain as powerful as possible. They are needed to kill the enemy. Other people are destroyed; they are forced to remain weak in thousand and one ways. AND THE BEST WAY TO KEEP A MAN WEAK IS NOT TO GIVE LOVE TOTAL FREEDOM.
LOVE IS NOURISHMENT. Now the psychologists have discovered it, that if a child is not given love, he shrivels up into himself and becomes weak. You can give him milk, you can give him medicine, you can give him everything. Just don't give him love. Don't hug him, don't kiss him, don't hold him close to the warmth of your body. And the child will start becoming weaker and weaker and weaker. And there are more chances of dying than surviving.
What happens? Why? JUST HUGGING, KISSING, GIVING WARMTH -- somehow the child feels nourished, accepted, loved, needed; THE CHILD STARTS FEELING WORTHY; the child starts feeling a certain meaning in his life.
NOW FROM THE VERY CHILDHOOD WE STARVE -- WE DON'T GIVE LOVE AS MUCH AS NEEDED. Then we force the young men and young women not to fall in love unless they get married. By the age fourteen they become sexually mature. But the education may take more time – ten years more. Twenty-four, twenty-five years then they will be getting their MAs or PhDs or MDs. So we have to force them not to love.
SEXUAL ENERGY COMES TO ITS CLIMAX AT NEAR ABOUT THE AGE OF EIGHTEEN. Never again will a man be so potential, and never again will a woman be able to have a greater orgasm than she will be able near the age eighteen. But we force them not to make love.
We force boys to have their separate dormitories. GIRLS AND BOYS ARE KEPT SEPARATE. And just between the two stands the whole mechanism of police, magistrate, vice chancellors, principals, headmasters. They are all standing there just in between -- just holding boys not to move to the girls, holding girls not to move to the boys. Why? Why so much care is taken? THEY ARE TRYING TO KILL THE BULL AND CREATE AN OX.
By the time you are eighteen, you are at the peak of your sexual energy, your love energy. By the time you get married, twenty-fifth, twenty-sixth, twenty-seventh -- and the age has been going on and on. The more cultured a county, the more you wait -- because more has to be learned. The job has to be found, this and that. BY THE TIME YOU GET MARRIED, YOU ARE ALMOST DECLINING IN YOUR POWERS. And you love -- but the love never becomes really hot. It never comes to the point where people evaporate; it remains lukewarm.
AND WHEN YOU HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO LOVE TOTALLY, YOU CANNOT LOVE YOUR CHILDREN -- because you don't know how. When you have not been able to know the peaks of it, how can you teach your children? How can you help your children to have the peaks of it? So down the ages, man has been denied love so that he remains weak.
