Friendship is the purest love. It is the highest form of Love where nothing is asked for, no condition, where one simply enjoys giving.

More quotes by Rajneesh
What I am teaching is religiousness, a quality. Religion is a dead dogma, fixed principles, frozen fossils. What I am teaching to you is a living, flowing religiousness - an experience like love.
Rajneesh
When mind knows, we call it knowledge. When heart knows, we call it love. And when being knows, we call it meditation.
Rajneesh
A really religious person has no theology. Yes, he has the experience, he has the truth, he has that luminosity, but he has no theology.
Rajneesh
If you ask Zen people they will say tea is not something that you pour with unawareness and drink like any other drink. It is not a drink, it is meditation it is prayer. So they listen to the kettle creating a melody, and in that listening they become more silent, more alert.
Rajneesh
Mind is the absence of meditation. The moment meditation arises in you, mind is found nowhere.
Rajneesh
When movement becomes ecstatic, then this is dance. When the movement is so total there is no ego, then it is dance.
Rajneesh
You can call it godliness - it IS godliness. It is the highest, the greatest flowering of being. But it is not a God somewhere outside you. You cannot pray to it. You can be it, but you cannot pray to it, because it is not separate.
Rajneesh
The ego is goal-oriented. The ego is hankering for the future. It can hanker even for the other life, it can hanker for heaven, it can hanker for nirvana. It doesn`t matter what it hankers for - hankering is what it is, desiring is what it is, projecting into the future is what it is.
Rajneesh
Don't be bothered by perfection. Replace the word 'Perfection' by 'Totality. Totality will give you a different dimension.
Rajneesh
Freedom is the basic thing. Consciousness grows in freedom and starts dying, becomes paralyzed and crippled, when things are forced. And up to now, this has been done. This is the greatest crime that parents have always committed against children. They go on forcing the child.
Rajneesh
Everybody is born with the capacity to enjoy, but not with the art. People think just because they are alive and they breathe and they exist, they know how to enjoy. That is sheer stupidity. Enjoyment is a great art, it is a great discipline. It is as subtle a discipline as music or poetry or painting. It is the greatest creativity.
Rajneesh
There are a few things that can be done only by experiencing them. Love is one of them. There is no way to learn it you have to do it. And by trial and error one learns.
Rajneesh
Don't try to force anything. Let life be a deep let-go. God opens millions of flowers everyday without forcing their buds
Rajneesh
I would like the whole world to be full with authentic art, throbbing with it, living with it, because that is the only way: through authentic art, real art, you transcend it. If the music is real, soon you will move into meditation, because the music will only give you a little glimpse of meditation, nothing more.
Rajneesh
Mind cannot think without duality. Duality is the way of thinking. In silence, all dualities disappear.
Rajneesh
You are not feeling empty because you don't have much money. You are feeling empty because you have not yet encountered your real self, you have not come to your authentic individuality.
Rajneesh
The meditation I am talking about is not a meditation on something. If you light a lamp and remove all the objects surrounding it, the lamp will still go on giving light. In the same way, if you remove all objects from your consciousness, all thoughts, all imagination, what will happen? – only consciousness will remain.
Rajneesh
Ego cannot bring anything extraordinary into the world the extraordinary comes only through egolessness. And so is the case with the musician and the poet and the dancer. So is the case with everybody.
Rajneesh
1.If you can bring your consciousness, your awareness, your intelligence to the act, if you can be spontaneous, then there is no need for any other religion, life itself will be the religion.
Rajneesh
Getting love is a very small experience. It is the experience of beggar.
Rajneesh
