Who am I? is not really a question because it has no answer to it it is unanswerable. It is a device, not a question.

More quotes by Rajneesh
Pleasure is always something apposed to pain it is never separate from pain
Rajneesh
Everybody is trying to be perfect. And the moment somebody starts trying to be perfect, he starts expecting everybody else to be perfect. He starts condemning people, he starts humiliating people.
Rajneesh
If somebody asks, What is a dance? how can you define it? But you can dance and you can know the inner feel of it.
Rajneesh
Whatever you choose you will repent because the other will remain and haunt you. If one needs absolute freedom then choiceless awareness is the only thing.
Rajneesh
Each individual`s way is going to be different. Never follow anybody. That is the greatest calamity that can happen to a man. Once you start following somebody else, you become a carbon copy. You become an imitation.
Rajneesh
The world can come to a harmony if meditation is spread far and wide.
Rajneesh
And remember one fundamental law of life. If they are hostile, they have hate towards us, sooner or later they are going to fall into my trap, because hate can turn into love very easily, just as love can become hate very easily.
Rajneesh
Become alert about desire and non-attachment begins to appear. This is not to be made to happen, it follows naturally from awareness of attachment. Each one of us has to become aware of his attachments, and keep being so! Nothing should be done unconsciously.
Rajneesh
A small room is enough a small quantity of food is enough a few clothes are enough one lover, a very ordinary man
Rajneesh
When all the faces have been rejected and emptiness is left, you have found the original face. Emptiness is the original face. Zero is the ultimate experience. Nothingness - or more accurately NO-THINGNESS - is your original face.
Rajneesh
Accept yourself as you are. And that is the most difficult thing in the world, because it goes against your training, education, your culture.
Rajneesh
The word devil is very beautiful, if you read it backwards it becomes lived.
Rajneesh
It is beautiful to be alone, it is also beautiful to to be in love, to be with people. And they are complementary, not contradictory.
Rajneesh
People are not things, you cannot have ownership.
Rajneesh
Love can exist only after meditation, not before it. That is a simple existential law. Before meditation - only lust, only sexuality. Before meditation you are an animal and not really a human being. With meditation a transformation comes: you become human, and out of your humanness, love flows.
Rajneesh
The moment a child is born, the mother is also born.
Rajneesh
Knowledge is the barrier to knowing. When knowledge is dropped, knowing flowers.
Rajneesh
To me spirituality needs an honest individuality. It does not allow any kind of dependence. It creates a freedom for itself, whatever the cost. It is never in the crowd but alone, because the crowd has never found any truth. The truth has been found only in people's aloneness.
Rajneesh
Happiness is a shadow of harmony it follows harmony. There is no other way to be happy.
Rajneesh
People expect too much. People who expect heaven always fall into hell - that is the law. Expect heaven and hell is certain. Don't expect heaven and there will never be any hell.
Rajneesh
