More quotes by Rajneesh
I love this world because it is imperfect. It is imperfect, and that's why it is growing if it was perfect it would have been dead.
Rajneesh
You have to be whole: rich in the body, rich in science rich in meditation, rich in consciousness.
Rajneesh
So awareness and enjoying this life can grow together simultaneously. And this is my vision of the whole man.
Rajneesh
Love and respect yourself and never compromise for anything. And then you will be surprised how much growth starts happening of its own accord.. as if rocks have been removed and the river has started flowing.
Rajneesh
Move inwards! Contentment is a quality of your center it is not found on the circumference. Fulfillment is when you have arrived at your real, authentic being it is not found in the ego.
Rajneesh
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
My people worship, but not in a church. They worship the beauty of existence.
Rajneesh
A very sensitive person in this stupid world is bound to become mad.... Only meditation can save him from becoming mad.
Rajneesh
Love has these three stages, and compassion accordingly has three stages, and both can exist in different combinations.
Rajneesh
It is beautiful to be alone, it is also beautiful to to be in love, to be with people. And they are complementary, not contradictory.
Rajneesh
Guilt simply says that you are a sinner. And the feeling of shame simply shows you that you need not be a sinner, that you are meant to be a saint. If you are a sinner it is only because of your unconsciousness you are not a sinner because the society follows a certain morality and you are not following it.
Rajneesh
Meditation is your awakening. The moment you awake, sleep disappears and with it all the dreams, all the projections, all expectations, all desires. Suddenly you are in a state of desirelessness, non-ambition, unfathomable silence. And only in this silence, blossoms flower in your being. Only in this silence the lotuses open their petals.
Rajneesh
If you have found your truth within yourself there is nothing more in this whole existence to find.
Rajneesh
You are angry, and you watch it. You are not just angry, a new element is introduced into it: you are watching it. And the miracle is that if you can watch anger, the anger disappears without being repressed.
Rajneesh
The moment you go in, all connections with the outside world are broken all bridges are broken. In fact, the whole world disappears.
Rajneesh
It is better not to call anything to anybody - just remain centered in yourself. Look at the world and drop judgments, and you will have such a pure atmosphere around you - no appreciation, no condemnation, just a pure watchfulness. This watchfulness, I call meditation.
Rajneesh
Accept the responsibility of being yourself as you are, with all that is good and with all that is bad, with all that is beautiful and that which is not beautiful. In that acceptance a transcendence happens and one becomes free.
Rajneesh
Drop dreaming and you are there where you have really been always, but you were never aware. All meditation techniques are just antidream efforts, just dream-negating devices.
Rajneesh
Be ordinary, but bring a quality of awareness to your ordinary life. Bring God to your ordinary life introduce God into your ordinary life. Sleep, eat, love, pray, meditate, but don’t think that you are making or doing something special—and then you will be special.
Rajneesh
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
