<P> According to Osho Rajneesh, the monkey symbolism originated in ancient Hindu tradition and Buddhist monks spread this symbolism across Asia . The original Hindu and Buddhist version contains 4 monkeys and the fourth monkey covers his genitals. The Buddhist version means this as "Don't do anything evil". </P> <P> In Hindu original version the meaning of the fourth monkey is totally different from the popular Buddhist version . It means, "Hide your pleasures . Hide your enjoyment, don't show it to anybody ." </P> <P> Osho Rajneesh gave his own meaning regarding this . The first monkey denotes' Don't listen to the truth because it will disturb all your consoling lies' . The second monkey denotes' Don't look at the truth; otherwise your God will be dead and your heaven and hell will disappear' . The third monkey denotes' Don't speak the truth, otherwise you will be condemned, crucified, poisoned, tortured by the whole crowd, the unconscious people . You will be condemned, don't speak the truth!' The fourth monkey denotes "Keep your pleasures, your joys, hidden . Don't let anybody know that you are a cheerful man, a blissful man, an ecstatic man, because that will destroy your very life . It is dangerous". </P> <Table> <Tr> <Td> </Td> <Td> This section needs additional citations for verification . Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources .
