More quotes by Rajneesh
Repressed anger becomes a temporary madness. Something happens which is beyond your control. If you could have controlled, you would have controlled it still -- but suddenly it was overflowing. Suddenly it was beyond you. You couldn't do anything, you felt helpless -- and it came out. Such a person may not be angry, but he moves and lives in anger.
Rajneesh
Create inner freedom through witnessing. Sannyas is only for the inner freedom. And live out of inner freedom.
Rajneesh
We where created to discover Love - the only reality.
Rajneesh
You become that which you think you are. Or, it is not that you become it, but that the idea gets very deeply rooted and that's what all conditioning is.
Rajneesh
The fundamental thing is to drop the split, to become one. Be one, and then all else is possible even the impossible is possible.
Rajneesh
Be - don't try to become.
Rajneesh
Death is the greatest illusion of all.
Rajneesh
The moment you accept yourself, you become beautiful.
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
Zen is the most scientific method to inquire into your consciousness. It takes you beyond mind into a space called no-mind. No self, but pure awareness, and you have a taste of eternity and immortality.
Rajneesh
Your real being only flowers with unconditional love. Ambition is against love. Anything that is against love is against you and your real life.
Rajneesh
I am teaching you to live simply. To live with an idea is a very complicated living, it is cunning. To live simply, just like trees and birds.
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
To come across a Master and to miss the Master is the greatest accident, very unfortunate, that can happen to a man.
Rajneesh
Always choose the new, the less travelled by. Always choose the unknown, the less travelled by.
Rajneesh
If you try too much to change the outside, that shows that you are still attached. If a man tries to be detached, it shows attachment. Why bother about detachment if you are not attached? If a man escapes from women, it shows that sex is still the obsession. Otherwise, why escape from women if you are not obsessed?
Rajneesh
By and by... there are more and more gaps of silence. Through those gaps, windows will open to the divine.
Rajneesh
The ego does not, cannot live in the present, because the present is real and the ego is false - they never meet.
Rajneesh
The master is already merged into existence. Merging into the master you are really merging with existence itself. The master functions only as a door, and a door is an emptiness you pass through it. The master is the door to the beyond.
Rajneesh
Do the small things of life with a relaxed awareness. When you are eating, eat totally - chew totally, taste totally, smell totally. Touch your bread, feel the texture. Smell the bread, smell the flavor. Chew it, let it dissolve into your being.
Rajneesh
