- synopsis
- Reader of the sutra: Ma Prem Maneesha. During leaving (video from 1:56:48) Osho is leading a Stop! Meditation.
- The sutra
- Of the apostates
- He who is of my sort will also encounter experiences of my sort, so that his first companions must be corpses and buffoons.
- His second companions, however, will call themselves his believers: a lively flock, full of love, full of folly, full of adolescent adoration.
- He among men who is of my sort should not grapple his heart to these believers; he who knows fickle-cowardly human nature should not believe in these springs and many-colored meadows!...
- 'We have grown pious again' -- thus these apostates confess; and many of them are still too cowardly to confess it....
- But it is a disgrace to pray! Not for everyone, but for you and me and for whoever else has his conscience in his head. For you it is a disgrace to pray!
- You know it well: the cowardly devil in you who would like to clasp his hands and to fold his arms and to take it easier: -- It was this cowardly devil who persuaded you: 'there is a god!'
- Through that, however, have you become one of those who dread the light, whom light never lets rest; now you must stick your head deeper every day into night and fog!
- ... The hour has arrived for all people who fear the light, the evening hour of ease when there is no -- 'ease' for them....
- And some of them have even become night-watchmen: now they know how to blow horns and to go around at night and awaken old things that have long been asleep.
- I heard five sayings about old things last night beside the garden wall: they came from such old, distressed, dried-up night-watchmen:
- 'For a father he does not look after his children enough: human fathers do it better!'
- 'He is too old! He no longer looks after his children at all' -- thus the other night-watchman answered.
- 'Has he any children? No one can prove it, if he doesn't prove it himself! I have long wished he would prove it thoroughly for once.'
- 'Prove it? As if he has ever proved anything! He finds it hard to prove things; he thinks it very important that people should believe him.'
- 'Yes, yes! Belief makes him happy, belief in him. Old people are like that!...'
- ... Has not the time for all such doubts long since passed?...
- With the old gods, they have long since met their end -- and truly, they had a fine, merry, divine ending!
- They did not 'fade away in twilight' -- that is a lie! On the contrary: they once -- laughed themselves to death!
- That happened when the most godless saying proceeded from a god himself, the saying: 'There is one God! You shall have no other gods before me!' -- an old wrath-beard of a god, a jealous god, thus forgot himself:
- And all the gods laughed then and rocked in their chairs and cried: 'Is not precisely this godliness, that there are gods but no God?'
- He who has ears to hear, let him hear.
- ... Thus spake Zarathustra.
