Quote

Right awareness is awareness of one's own being in its totality: all that is good and all that is bad. But as you become aware, the bad starts disappearing - just as when you bring light into the room, the darkness disappears. When light is in the room, darkness cannot exist there. Sin is darkness, forgetfulness, unconsciousness.

Lovers have known sometimes what saints have not known.
Rajneesh
Image
A deep inner emptiness is needed that inner emptiness becomes the womb. So I`m not saying stop doing, stop action I`m not saying that. I am saying that whatsoever you are doing, let it be just an outside activity. Inside become feminine, silent, doors opened, empty, waiting.
Rajneesh
Image
Love has these three stages, and compassion accordingly has three stages, and both can exist in different combinations.
Rajneesh
Image
Because of Christianity the West has missed many things, and one of them is meditation, the rarest flowering of a human being, because they have made it equivalent to contemplation. Contemplation is thinking. Meditation is no-thinking.
Rajneesh

As long as the I is there, love cannot be. All that we call love is only desire, longing, passion and attachment as long as ego is there, all these bind one.
Rajneesh
Image
Society is just a structure with no soul. The soul is of the individual. One individual outweighs all societies. And, one individual's revolution outweighs all revolutions in the whole of history, because one man can become the womb for God to be reborn.
Rajneesh
Image
Meditation should not be a thing apart from life it should be amidst life, it should be a part of life an organic part, nothing 'put separate'. The temple should exist exactly in the middle of the market, and all distinctions between the sacred and the secular should be dissolved.

Don't look for God in the sky look within your own body.
Rajneesh

The word 'sin' is beautiful it comes from a root which means 'forgetfulness'. You may not be able to see the connection between forgetfulness and sin, but there IS a connection: forgetfulness means unawareness, unconsciousness.
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.

Lao Tzu says: Accept yourself. Non-acceptance is the root of all the trouble. None of us accept ourselves. The more a person doesn't accept himself, the greater a mahatma he looks to others to be. We are our greatest enemy. If we had our way, we would cut ourselves to pieces in order to remove what was unacceptable.

Heaven and hell are not geographical, they are psychological, they are your psychology.
Rajneesh

What is marriage now, or what has it ever been? - just a painful suffering, a long suffering, with false smiling faces. It has simply proved to be a misery. At the most it can be just a convenience.
Rajneesh
Image
You cease totally and only then you arrive. You enter into the world of God, or godliness, only when you are no more.
Rajneesh

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.
