More quotes by Rajneesh
First you have to do all that you can do, and then you have to learn non-doing. The doing of the non-doing is the greatest doing, and the effort of effortlessness is the greatest effort.
Rajneesh
I want my people to understand that because only man is capable to laugh, that means laughter is the highest point of consciousness, the highest point of understanding, the highest point of evolution. That's why I have started calling laughter the prayer time.
Rajneesh
Only a fulfilled heart can pray, because only a fulfilled heart can be grateful and can feel the grace descending.
Rajneesh
All the buddhas of all the ages have been telling you a very simple fact: Be — don´t try to become. Within these two words, be and becoming, your whole life is contained. Being is enlightenment, becoming is ignorance. Osho
Rajneesh
Only disciplined people become free, but their discipline is not obedience to others: their discipline is obedience to their own inner voice. And they are ready to risk anything for it.
Rajneesh
I don't teach vegetarianism it is a by-product of meditation. Wherever meditation has happened, people have become vegetarian, always, for thousands of years.
Rajneesh
Meditation means you don't have anything, any object to think about. You are just in a state of absolute aloneness. You don't have anything on which you can focus yourself - not a sutra, not a mantra, not any great value of life, just pure space all around you. Then you are in meditation. Meditation is never about something. Meditation is a state.
Rajneesh
I am teaching you to live simply. To live with an idea is a very complicated living, it is cunning. To live simply, just like trees and birds.
Rajneesh
Only no-mind can be without any duality, because it is empty. The no-mind is choicelessness. The no-mind is pure awareness. It is just the empty sky.
Rajneesh
Anywhere everywhere! Anything anyhow! just dance!
Rajneesh
If your creativity comes out of your silence, out of your Zen, out of your meditations, then it is authentic, original. If it comes only as an occupation because you are feeling lost and there is nothing to do - a long holiday, so you start doing something... That is not coming out of your silences, it is coming out of your crazy mind.
Rajneesh
Your mind is a constant traffic of thoughts, and it is always rush hour, day in, day out. Meditation means to watch the movement of thoughts in the mind.
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
Become more and more innocent, less knowledgeable and more childlike. Take life as fun - because that's precisely what it is!
Rajneesh
To know the whole world is nothing when it is compared to knowing your own inner mystery of life.
Rajneesh
Let me insist and emphasise it because I would like all of my sannyasins to be creative in some way. To me, creativity is of tremendous import. An uncreative person is not a religious person at all.
Rajneesh
Jesus was a crackpot.
Rajneesh
Drop envy and jealousy, otherwise there is no possibility , because love cannot exist where envy and jealousies exist.
Rajneesh
If you are a parent, open doors to unknown directions to the child so he can explore. Don't make him afraid of the unknown,give him support.
Rajneesh
Try to force celibacy upon yourself and your dreams will become sexual, they will have a quality of sexuality.
Rajneesh
