Quote

Celebration never need depend on outside circumstances. We need not wait for a special holiday or a formal occasion, nor a sunny and cloudless day. True celebration arises from a joy that is first experienced deep within, and spills over into an overflow of song and dance and laughter, and yes, even tears of gratitude.

Religion is not a result of something that you practice. Religion enters in you any moment you relax. Religion is a flowering of relaxation, not a result of practicing. Remember the difference because when you practice you become more tense.
Rajneesh
Image
You can succeed only with God, never against him. You can succeed only with the whole, never against it.
Rajneesh
Image
Man is born only as a potential. He can become a thorn for himself and for others, he can also become a flower for himself and for others.
Rajneesh
Image
Religion is nothing but a science to attain wisdom, understanding, to know what life is, and to live it in utter celebration.
Rajneesh
Image
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
Image
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
Image
Peace follows love energy like a shadow.
Rajneesh
Image
Forget the dancer, the center of the ego. Become the dance. Then the dancer disappears and only the dance remains. Then the dancer is the dance. There is no dancer separate from dance, no dance separate from the dancer.
Rajneesh
Image
Advice is like food, and teaching is a menu.
Rajneesh
Image
I believe that the very effort to convert anybody is violence, it is interfering in his individuality, in his uniqueness, into his freedom.
Rajneesh
Image
Each moment brings new surprises to the one who has no expectations, who comes with an absolutely open mind. Then incredible things start happening. Even if you had wanted them you could not have expected them you could not have found yourself worthy enough to expect them.
Rajneesh
Image
Wakefulness is the only saintliness there is, and sleepiness, unconsciousness, is the only sin there is all other sins are born out of it. Cut the root, cut the very root! Don't go on pruning the leaves.
Rajneesh
Image
Marriage is a formality, a legal bondage. Love is of the heart marriage is of the mind. That's why I am never in favor of marriage.
Rajneesh
Image
Life is not a tragedy, it is a comedy. To be alive means to have a sense of humor.
Rajneesh
Image
Life is a garden. It is an opportunity. You can grow weeds, you can grow roses it all depends on you.
Rajneesh
Image
Love knows how to forgive. Love cannot hurt and cannot be violent.
Rajneesh
Image
Marriage is more permanent than love. Love may be eternal, but it is not permanent. It may continue forever and forever, but there is no inner necessity for it to continue. It is like a flower: bloomed in the morning, by the evening gone. It is not like the rock. Marriage is more permanent you can rely on it. In old age it will be helpful.
Rajneesh
Image
You become that which you think you are. Or, it is not that you become it, but that the idea gets very deeply rooted and that's what all conditioning is.
Rajneesh
Image
Mohammedans say there is only one God and only one prophet of God, that is Muhammad. Then God seems to be very poor - just ONE prophet?
Rajneesh
Image
Who is a god? A god is one who has learned the secret of being happy with the whole universe, with every flower and with every river and with every rock and every star who has become one with this continuous eternal celebration who celebrates, who doesn't bother whose celebration this is. And wherever there is a celebration, he participates.
