Quote

What is envy? It is nothing but passive jealousy. Maybe jealousy is too strong a phenomenon envy is a little passive. The difference may be of degrees, but it is not of quality, it is only of quantity. Envy can become jealousy at any moment envy is just jealousy in progress. Mind has to drop all envies and jealousies.

A very sensitive person in this stupid world is bound to become mad.... Only meditation can save him from becoming mad.
Rajneesh

The mind is just like a crowd thoughts are the individuals. And because thoughts are there continuously you think the process is substantial. Drop each individual thought and finally nothing is left. There is no mind as such, only thinking.
Rajneesh

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

This has to be your first lesson in sannyas: accept yourself, love yourself, drop all guilt, don`t divide yourself. There is nothing higher, nothing lower all of you is divine. The lowest is as divine as the highest.
Rajneesh
Image
If you wait for your natural soul mate to meet with you, it will be just like waiting for lightning with which to read your Bible. And you will not be able to read much either. For a moment it is there, and by the time you have opened the Bible it is gone.

Meditation is simply a strange surgical method that cuts you away from all that is not yours and saves only that which is your authentic being.
Rajneesh
Image
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.

Zen people love Buddha so tremendously that they can even play jokes upon him. It is out of great love they are not afraid.
Rajneesh
Image
Vegetarianism is a conscious effort, a deliberate effort, to get out of the heaviness that keeps you tethered to the earth so that you can fly - so that the flight from the alone to the alone becomes possible.
Rajneesh
Image
Don't choose. If you choose, you will be in the quagmire. Don't choose! A choiceless awareness is the goal. Just remain aloof don't choose. The moment you choose, you have fallen into the trap of the world, or into the trap of the mind.
Rajneesh

Laughter is the very essence of religion. Seriousness is never religious, cannot be religious. Seriousness is of the ego, part of the very disease. Laughter is egolessness.
Rajneesh
Image
It is impossible to pursue happiness. Nobody has ever pursued it. One has to wait for it. And it is not a right at all. No law court can force you to be happy or force happiness to be with you. No government violence is capable of making you happy. No power can make you happy.

Sex is the seed, love is the flower, compassion is the fragrance.
Rajneesh

Only a fulfilled heart can pray, because only a fulfilled heart can be grateful and can feel the grace descending.

If you can come to this nowness without sex, sex, by and by will become useless, it will disappear. It will not be a desire then. If you want to move in it you can move into it as a fun, but not as a desire. Then there is no obsession in it because you are not dependent on it.
Rajneesh
Image
The mind is continuously running around. It never sits, it can't sit. Sitting seems to be death to it, and in a way it is.
Rajneesh
Image
The West has enough technology, enough science, enough affluence, enough money, but something of the inner is missing. There is no peace, no silence, no joy, no bliss, no meditativeness, no experience of godliness.
Rajneesh
Image
You can become happy just by deciding to be happy.
Rajneesh
Image
Become more and more innocent, less knowledgeable and more childlike. Take life as fun - because that's precisely what it is!
