More quotes by Rajneesh
Zen is a kind of unlearning. It teaches you how to drop that which you have learned, how to become unskillful again, how to become a child again, how to start existing without mind again, how to be here without any mind.
Rajneesh
If you love a flower, don’t pick it up. Because if you pick it up it dies and it ceases to be what you love. So if you love a flower, let it be. Love is not about possession. Love is about appreciation.
Rajneesh
Meditation is not something you do once and you are done with. It is something that is like breathing, like blood circulating. It is not that once the blood has circulated it is finished, once you breathe there is no more need of it. No, you have to breathe and you have to go on meditating every moment you will need it.
Rajneesh
Knowledge is also borrowed. It is not a flower that grows in your soul, it is something plastic that has been imposed upon you.
Rajneesh
Tomorrow never comes.
Rajneesh
To be aflame with silence, with joy, is wisdom. It is not through logic but through love. It is not through words but through a wordless state called meditation or a state of no-mind, satori, samadhi.
Rajneesh
Mind is the absence of meditation. The moment meditation arises in you, mind is found nowhere.
Rajneesh
The perfectionist is another name for someone who is getting ready to become mad.
Rajneesh
Man is busy desiring to find something which only he can do so that his ego acquires importance.
Rajneesh
From birth to death you go on living, groping in darkness with no light - and you could have created the light. You cannot find it in the scriptures nobody can hand it to you. It is not purchased or sold it is nontransferable. But you can create it - you can put all your energies together. You can start living consciously from this very moment.
Rajneesh
The mind exists in time, in fact the mind is time it exists in the past and the future. And remember, time consists of only two tenses, the past and the future. The present is not part of time, the present is part of eternity.
Rajneesh
I am not interested in communicating something to you, I am interested in communion. Communication means my mind talking to your mind. Communion means I am not a mind, you are not a mind - just your heart melting into my heart, no words.
Rajneesh
Don`t imitate: imitation creates falsity, pseudo-ness, inauthenticity. Just feel your own way and don`t bother about what others say. It is nobody else`s business. Don`t bother about what churches say, organizations say - listen to your own heart.
Rajneesh
God is nothing but creativity. So wherever there is a sign of creativity, God has a signature there. He has already been there. Maybe even the poet does not know, but he has been touched by something from the beyond.
Rajneesh
The first thing to be understood: effort is needed, but effort alone is not enough - effort and then effortlessness, effort plus effortlessness. Effort precedes, and then effortlessness follows. Effortlessness is the peak of effort, it comes only when you have reached the peak
Rajneesh
When love and hate are both absent everything becomes clear and undisguised.
Rajneesh
Don't call it uncertainty-call it wonder.
Rajneesh
This art of participating in happiness is one of the foundations if you want to be happy.
Rajneesh
Real love makes you more of an individual. It does not efface your individuality, it gives you individuality. Real love is very respectful.
Rajneesh
Always choose the new, the less travelled by. Always choose the unknown, the less travelled by.
Rajneesh
