The whole blame goes to the parents. They have lived as ambitious beings they have destroyed themselves. Now they go on giving their heritage to their children - their unfulfilled desires, their incomplete ambitions. In this way diseases pass on from one generation to another.
Rajneesh
Image
The process of meditation does not take you to some new world it only introduces you to the world where you have been for lives upon lives. The process of meditation does not add anything to you it only takes away what is wrong, cuts it away, sheds it off.
Rajneesh
Image
Joy arises only in creating joy for others there is no other way. The more people you can make happy, the more you will feel happy. This is the real meaning of service.
Rajneesh
Image
Life is a mystery, and there is nothing to explain everything is just open, it is in front of you. Encounter it! Meet it! Be courageous!
Rajneesh

Become alert! Relationship destroys love, destroys the very possibility of its birth.
Rajneesh
Image
In this world, the greatest courage is to drop the mind aside. The bravest man is who can see the world without the barrier of the mind, just as it is. It is tremendously different, utterly beautiful. There is nobody who is inferior and there is nobody who is superior - there are no distinctions.
Rajneesh
Image
Meditate, become more aware and then you will see: choices disappear, a choicelessness arises. And it is such a tremendous joy to have a choiceless spontaneity. It is such a freedom. Choice is such a burden.
Rajneesh
Image
When you open up to the ultimate, immediately it pours into you. You are no longer an ordinary human being - you have transcended. Your insight has become the insight of the whole existence. Now you are no longer separate - you have found your roots.
Rajneesh
Image
Change only one thing, change from misery to bliss. from sadness to celebration. And it can be done very easily because misery is an unnatural thing.
Rajneesh
Image
Children can be taught meditation more easily because they are not yet spoiled. When you have been spoiled the hard work is to help you to unlearn.
Rajneesh
Image
This is what enlightenment is all about - a deep understanding that there is no problem. Then, with no problem to solve, what will you do? Immediately you start living. You will eat, you will sleep, you will love, you will work, you will have a chit-chat, you will sing, you will dance - what else is there to do?
Rajneesh
Image
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
Drop the fear. Fear was taken up by you in your childhood, unconsciously. Now consciously drop it and be mature. Then the life can be a light which goes on deepening as you go on growing.
Rajneesh
Image
Be a loving person rather than in a love relationship - because relationships happen one day and disappear another day. They are flowers in the morning they bloom, by the evening they are gone.
Rajneesh
Image
Meditation is neither of the body nor of the mind, but belongs to the third within you—your being.
Rajneesh
Image
Mind is the absence of meditation. The moment meditation arises in you, mind is found nowhere.
Rajneesh
Image
To be choiceless is to be in meditation. To be choiceless is to enter the eternal.
Rajneesh
Image
When there is no mind, you are in yoga when there is mind you are not in yoga. So you may do all the postures, but if the mind goes on functioning, if you go on thinking, you are not in yoga.
Rajneesh
Image
Mind is a crowd of many desires it is not a single desire. Mind is multi-psychic, and all the fragments are falling apart in different directions. It is a miracle how we go on keeping ourselves together it is a hard struggle to keep oneself together. Somehow we manage, but that togetherness remains only on the surface. Deep down there is turmoil.
Rajneesh
Image
Life in itself is an empty canvas it becomes whatsoever you paint on it. You can paint misery, you can paint bliss. This freedom is your glory.
Rajneesh
