Quote

Meditation opens the doors of your inner treasures, what Jesus calls the kingdom of god. Meditation is only a key, and keys are always small things, but they can unlock immense treasures. Everybody is born as a prince or a princess, but gets lost in the blind crowd of beggars.

Just be yourself, it means to be beautiful.
Rajneesh
Image
You will find a blissfulness which contains in it sadness also, because that sadness gives it depth. Watch Buddha's statue - blissful, but still sad. The very word sad gives you wrong connotations - that something is wrong. This is your interpretation. To me, life in its totality is good.
Rajneesh
Image
I am utterly against any kind of guilt. Remember it always: if you start feeling guilty about something around me, then you are doing it on your own, then you are still carrying the voices of your parents, the priests within you you have not yet heard me, you have not yet listened to me. I want you to be totally free of all guilt.
Rajneesh
Image
When you become centered, suddenly there is great freedom because you know you are not the mind and you are not the body.
Rajneesh
Image
Misery nourishes your ego - that's why you see so many miserable people in the world. The basic, central point is the ego.
Rajneesh
Image
If you ask Zen people they will say tea is not something that you pour with unawareness and drink like any other drink. It is not a drink, it is meditation it is prayer. So they listen to the kettle creating a melody, and in that listening they become more silent, more alert.
Rajneesh
Image
The ego does not, cannot live in the present, because the present is real and the ego is false - they never meet.
Rajneesh
Image
Choice is bondage, choicelessness freedom. The moment you choose something, you have fallen in the trap of the world. If you can resist the temptation to choose, if you can remain choicelessly aware, the trap disappears on its own accord, because when you don`t choose you don`t help the trap to be there - the trap is also created by your choice.
Rajneesh
Image
Never feel lonely. You are never lonely. At the deepest core of your being, God resides.
Rajneesh
Image
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
Image
The guru is just trying to help you, to bring you to a point where you can at least surrender the ego. Then a deep ecstasy will happen between you and your master. Wherever there is a `let-go', ecstasy happens - that is the law.
Rajneesh
Image
By and by... there are more and more gaps of silence. Through those gaps, windows will open to the divine.
Rajneesh
Image
But there is a world of difference between dancing and watching a dance performed by a group of professionals who are paid for it. You work hard during the day, and when you are tired in the evening you go to a concert to watch others dancing. It is all you can do, but it is not even an apology for celebration.
Rajneesh
Image
Only a fulfilled heart can pray, because only a fulfilled heart can be grateful and can feel the grace descending.
Rajneesh
Image
Why do you dream? - because there are so many desires unfulfilled, and to live with unfulfilled desires is painful. In dream you try to fulfill them in dream you create a false feeling of fulfillment. Hence your dreams show much about you: what your desires are, what you want to become. But if you want to become anything in life, you are asleep.
Rajneesh
Image
That is one of the great secrets of life, that life is a movement. And if you are stuck somewhere you lose contact with life.
Rajneesh
Image
All this knowledge of the objective world is of no value in comparison to having a little glimpse of the inner sky and its beauty - its sunrises and sunsets, its days and nights, its blue sky and its stars. The outer then looks only a pale reflection of the inner. The inner becomes more real and the outer becomes just a shadow.
Rajneesh
Image
Without Jesus they were the great priests of the temple with Jesus suddenly they were nobodies. In the presence of Jesus there was God himself and all the priests felt their glory had been taken away.
Rajneesh
Image
The man of control lives in choice, and the man of understanding lives in choicelessness.
Rajneesh
Image
A woman is more humble, more grateful, more loving.
