More quotes by Rajneesh
Don't be attached to the things of the world, and don't be attached to the things of the other world, because things are things. It makes no difference whether they are of this world or the other world - attachment is the problem.
Rajneesh
While one is asleep one cannot do anything that is good. Virtue is impossible in unconsciousness, only sin is possible. Unconsciousness is the source of sin.
Rajneesh
Just try walking very slowly, and you will be surprised - a new quality of awareness starts happening in the body. Eat slowly, and you will be surprised - there is great relaxation. Do everything slowly... just to change the old pattern, just to come out of old habits.
Rajneesh
Those who miss meditation miss the whole dance of life.
Rajneesh
The parents, the society, the state, the church, the educational system, they all depend on lies. As the child is born they start trapping it into lies. And the child is helpless. He cannot escape his parents, he is utterly dependent. You can exploit his dependence...and it has been exploited down the ages.
Rajneesh
The highest art one can learn is the art of loving, and that the ultimate creativity and the highest art are born out of a knack - meditation.
Rajneesh
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
Don't look for God in the sky look within your own body.
Rajneesh
Existence does not listen to your desires, and does not follow your desires, however beautiful and however pious. Existence goes on in its own way.
Rajneesh
The only thing that matters in life, is your own opinion about yourself.
Rajneesh
First become a Zorba, a flower of this earth, and earn the capacity through it to become a Buddha - the flower of the other world. The other world is not away from this world the other world is not against this world: the other world is hidden in this. This is only a manifestataion of the other, and the other is the unmanifest part of this.
Rajneesh
Zen has no theory. It is a non-theoretical approach into reality. It has no doctrine and no dogma - hence it has no church, no priest, no pope.
Rajneesh
Hell and heaven are within you, both gates are within you. When you are behaving unconsciously there is the gate of hell when you become alert and conscious, there is the gate of heaven.
Rajneesh
The idea of vegetarianism is of immense value it is based on great reverence for life.
Rajneesh
Seeking you go astray seeking you go in dreams seeking you go somewhere else and truth is here. Seeking, you go then and truth is NOW
Rajneesh
First the husband tried to make the wife his possession, and once she is a possession he loses interest. There is some hidden logic in it: his whole interet was to possess now that is finished, and he would like to try some other woman so he can again go on another trip of possesion.
Rajneesh
You cannot drop the ego. Once you start trying to drop the ego you will get in a very deep mess you will become more and more worried and puzzled. And this is not the way to get rid of the ego. The only way to get rid of the ego is to look at it.
Rajneesh
At its highest, love is a religious state of consciousness. I love you too, Buddha loves, Jesus loves, but their love demands nothing in return.
Rajneesh
Real music will help you move towards meditation, beyond the mind needs, towards spiritual needs. Real poetry will give you a glimpse of the minds of the sages - a glimpse of course. It will open a window so you can see the faraway distant Himalayas. And then an urge arises in you, and you start travelling.
Rajneesh
You have to be whole: rich in the body, rich in science rich in meditation, rich in consciousness.
Rajneesh
