If you live with alertness, you live rightly. If you live in imitation, you live wrongly. To me there is only one sin: And that is not to be yourself. And to me there is only one virtue: And that is to know yourself.
Rajneesh

Be happy! and meditation will follow. Be happy, and religion will follow. Happiness is a basic condition. People become religious only when they are unhappy - then their religion is pseudo. Try to understand why you are unhappy.
Rajneesh
If you want to learn anything, learn trust - nothing else id needed. If you are miserable, nothing else will help - learn trust. If you don't feel any meaning in life and you feel meaningless, nothing will help - learn trust. Trust gives meaning because trust makes you capable of allowing the whole descend upon you.
Rajneesh
Be open, and God starts pouring into you like wine from every nook and corner of existence. Then wherever you look, you find God. Then whatsoever you touch, you find God. Then whatsoever you drink and eat, you find God. And when God pours from everywhere, then life is a celebration.

Rajneesh
Only in sex the noise sometimes stops. I say sometimes. If you have become habitual in sex also, as husbands and wives become, then it never stops. The whole act becomes automatic and the mind goes on its own. Then sex also is a boredom.
Rajneesh
Mohammedans say there is only one God and only one prophet of God, that is Muhammad. Then God seems to be very poor - just ONE prophet?
Rajneesh
The western mind is linear, the eastern mind is circular.
Rajneesh
Love is the fire in which everything is reduced to ashes. Only God will be saved. Only God cannot burn.
Rajneesh
The man of control lives in choice, and the man of understanding lives in choicelessness.
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
That's why children look so beautiful because they are yet full of hope, full of dreams, and they have not yet known frustration.
Rajneesh
Creativity is the greatest rebellion in existence.
Rajneesh
Don't say this is good and that is bad. Drop all discrimination. Accept everything as it is.
Rajneesh
Beware of dreams! And watch your dreams day in, day out, because they are continuously there. You can watch them, and by watching them you will become unidentified with them, you will become a mirror reflecting them. And this brings great freedom. Freedom from dreams is freedom from the world.
Rajneesh
Moving from love, not fear - a beautiful idea, especially when applied literally to the body.

Unless a man learns how to create, he never becomes a part of existence, which is constantly creative. By being creative one becomes divine creativity is the only prayer.
