in hoarding money, this and that; they are thing-oriented.
Twenty-five percent of people are not interested in anything -- neither in knowing nor in conquering, neither in being victorious nor in knowledge, neither in power nor in money. They simply want to eat, drink and go to sleep. They don't bother about anything -- they have no ambition, not any ambition... lethargic; we call them sudhras.
There are four types of people and there have been four types of societies in the world. When Karate and things like that developed, the warrior was the topmost in Japan -- he was dominating the society, he was on the top of the society. It was a warrior country and a warrior century.
In America, the third type of people is dominant -- the businessman; it is the country of the businessman. If you have money you are all -- nothing else is important. In the ancient days India was a brahmin country -- if you were a knower, you were all; even kings would come to touch your feet. A beggar, but brahmin, was more valuable than the emperor himself. You could conquer the whole world but that was nothing -- if you could see yourself, that was more valuable. The society was dominated by the brahmin. In Russia, the fourth type -- the sudhra, the proletarian-dominant.
So there have been these four types of man and four types of society in the past, and that is the only way a society can be -- some type of person becomes dominant. You are basically a warrior. It is not anger... it is just pure energy, it is fuel, and you don't know what to do with it. It is good that you have chosen Karate -- it has been an intuitive choice. It is good, and don't change it -- go deeply into it, go totally into it, forget everything. And don't think of your energy as anger -- that is a wrong interpretation; think of it as energy. And when you feel the energy is there, go into Karate.
Become more inventive, find more ways to go into it, go deeper into it.
And you know now the basic -- now you can develop it on your own; there are a thousand and one possibilities. So don't be worried and don't make it a problem -- it is not a problem. Simply accept it and go into
