mohammedans

that it seems absolutely unbelievable

that in the name of religion there is so much hatred

but if god is a jealous god, if god himself is not nice

then how can the representatives of god be nice?

then how can the pope be nice?

he may pretend but all those pretensions

are of no use in reality

they will talk about love and they will teach hatred

they will preach love

and they will kill in the name of love

madhav is a far more sophisticated vision of god

the sweet one

you can see the difference

jesus was worshipped by the christians

not because he was a loving person

but because he was crucified

hence the cross has become the symbol

not a rose flower

that would have represented jesus more accurately

and you see krishna with a flute

standing in a dancing pose

with peacock feathers in his crown

with bells tingling around his waist

with long hair -- the original hippie

it is a totally different vision of god

madhav is one of the names of krishna

the sweet one

he sings, he plays on his flute, he gathers people

and they dance and they celebrate

it is a totally different kind of world

a different dimension

even hindus have forgotten all about it

they have been contaminated

by christians and mohammedans

they have forgotten their own vision

that's why they are against me

what i am doing here is really

giving people songs again, dances

providing flutes which have disappeared

changing crosses into flutes -- that's my work

and of course crosses can be made into flutes

it is the same wood -- why make crosses?

my only desire is that we are able to transform

all the crosses of the world into flutes

and that every church

starts singing, dancing, swinging

and every church loses its seriousness

that jealous god has to be said goodbye to forever

we have to create a new kind of religiousness

of sweetness, of love, of friendship,
