The future is needed as a space to project your desires. To project, future is needed.
Rajneesh
Image
Spread compassion all around you. Look around you - people are so unhappy, don't add to their unhappiness. Your compassion will lessen their unhappiness just one word of compassion will lessen their unhappiness. Don't add to their unhappiness.
Rajneesh
Image
Falling in love you remain a child rising in love you mature. By and by love becomes not a relationship, it becomes a state of your being. Not that you are in love - now you are love.
Rajneesh
Image
Eat, drink, and be merry is perfectly good in itself nothing is wrong in it. But it is not enough. Soon you will get tired of it. One cannot just go on eating, drinking, and merrying. Soon the merry-go-round turns into a sorry-go-round - because it is repetitive. Only a very mediocre mind can go on being happy with it.
Rajneesh
Image
Take it easy, and remember Easy is Right.
Rajneesh
Image
God cannot be an object. It is deepest depth of your own being. How can you see it.
Rajneesh
Image
A creativity that comes out of meditative innocence, of meditative purity. And a real creator is possible only through meditation.
Rajneesh
Image
If you clean the floor with love, you have done an invisible painting. Live each moment in such delight that it gives you something inner.
Rajneesh
Image
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.

Learn to listen and trust your inner voice
Rajneesh
Image
Parents create guilt. That is the greatest sin against humanity. To create guilt in a child is criminal because once the guilt is created, the child will never be free of it. Unless he is very intelligent it will be impossible for him to get rid of it something of it will remain around him like a hangover.
Rajneesh
Image
Celebration never need depend on outside circumstances. We need not wait for a special holiday or a formal occasion, nor a sunny and cloudless day. True celebration arises from a joy that is first experienced deep within, and spills over into an overflow of song and dance and laughter, and yes, even tears of gratitude.
Rajneesh
Image
Have you not watched it yourself? Whenever you are total in something there is celebration.
Rajneesh
Image
Zorba is beautiful, but something is missing. The earth is his, but the heaven is missing. He is earthly, rooted, like a giant cedar, but he has no wings. He cannot fly into the sky. He has roots but no wings.
Rajneesh
Image
Just get out of your own way.
Rajneesh
Image
Begin with dhyana, with meditation, and end in samadhi, in ecstasy, and you will know what God is. It is not a hypothesis, it is an experience. You have to LIVE it - that is the only way to know it.
Rajneesh
Image
In meditation you are not unconscious, you are conscious - more conscious than ever.
Rajneesh
Image
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
Image
Intelligence comes from meditation, intelligence comes from rebellion, intelligence does not come from memory
Rajneesh

If you have no conditions you can enjoy life infinitely. If you have conditions, because of them you become incapable.
