For a prayer oriented religion the concept of a personal God is needed - to relate to. For meditation-oriented religions God is a useless hypothesis it can be discarded easily into the dustbin. It is not needed.

More quotes by Rajneesh
To be a criminal needs great unconsciousness. Meditation destroys your unconsciousness, opens the doors of light and suddenly what you were doing in the darkness starts disappearing.
Rajneesh
Sannyas is the art of flying... the art that stops the process of gravitation and starts the process of grace. All that is needed is a state of let-go. All that is needed is a readiness to be possessed by the upward dimension, a readiness to open to the sky.
Rajneesh
I say unto you that suffering is not holding you, you are holding suffering
Rajneesh
Meditation is neither of the body nor of the mind, but belongs to the third within you—your being.
Rajneesh
When you listen with perfect awareness, then listening becomes possible.
Rajneesh
People have judged you you have accepted their idea without any scrutiny. And you are suffering from all kinds of people's judgments, and you are throwing those judgments on other people. And this game has become out of proportion. The whole humanity is suffering from it. If you want to get out of it, the first thing is: Don't judge yourself.
Rajneesh
Vegetarianism functioned as a purification. When you eat animals you are more under the law of necessity. You are heavy, you gravitate more towards the earth. When you are a vegetarian you are light and you are more under the law of grace, under the law of power, and you start gravitating towards the sky.
Rajneesh
Nobody can teach you love. Love you have to find yourself, within your being, by raising your consciousness to higher levels.
Rajneesh
Only a fulfilled heart can pray, because only a fulfilled heart can be grateful and can feel the grace descending.
Rajneesh
Your torch of consciousness should be burning continuously then there will not be any darkness.
Rajneesh
Learn to be more meditative, and let your creativity be secondary to your meditativeness. Then you will have a totally different state of being - that of ecstasy and out of ecstasy, whatever is created has also some flavor of it.
Rajneesh
Bravery does not mean being fearless. It means to be full of fear but still not being dominated by it.
Rajneesh
Happiness is an art that one has to learn. It has nothing to do with your doing or not doing.
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
Your honesty, Your love, Your compassion should come from your inner being, not from teachings and scriptures.
Rajneesh
I can understand you are really in a mess and there is no way out. I have heard that there are three rings of love: the engagement ring, the wedding ring and the suffer-ring.
Rajneesh
So awareness and enjoying this life can grow together simultaneously. And this is my vision of the whole man.
Rajneesh
My people worship, but not in a church. They worship the beauty of existence.
Rajneesh
Tomorrow never comes.
Rajneesh
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
