You ask me, "do politicians have brains?"
All the political leaders have functioned mechanically.
Either the game has to finish or the humanity has
to be ready to commit suicide.
You ask me, "do politicians have brains?"
I can only
say
what I have experienced and seen.
Certainly the question will arise
because if I say they don't have any brains
then how they go on working.
They go on working just like computers.
Just like robots.
They go on working
not intelligently
but mechanically
for 2000 years we know history
more clearly
with evidence.
One thing comes out absolutely clear,
that all the political leaders have functioned mechanically.
That's why history is repeated.
It is because of the mechanical
behavior of the politicians.
It is the same veil that goes on moving
The same ambition, the same desire
the same strategy,
the same tricks,
the same exploitation
and the same results.
But now the game has come to a point where
either the game has to finish
or the humanity has
to be ready to commit suicide.
The game is not so precious.
The game is
just worthless.
Humanity cannot be sacrificed to the political game.
Human individuals should start declaring
that the earth is one.
That the whole humanity is one,
that we don't want any nations,
that we don't want this dirty politics,
that we don't see any problem
in Russia being against America
or America being against Russia.
The Russian people are as innocent and simple as Americans.
It is just the topmost politicians
who cannot let you relax;
because your relaxation is their death.
They want you to remain
continuously tense, afraid
so that they go on playing the game
that the war is coming
and we have to prepare for it.
I want my people to declare that
there is going to be no war
and we are not going to be participants in it.
That this war is absolute absurdity.
And it is good that politics has
brought you to this logical conclusion.
Without it there was no hope
to get rid of politicians.
Now there is a chance and we should not miss it.
It is so
glaringly clear
that it is a question of either or.
Either the politicians remain or humanity remains.
