Each individual`s way is going to be different. Never follow anybody. That is the greatest calamity that can happen to a man. Once you start following somebody else, you become a carbon copy. You become an imitation.

More quotes by Rajneesh
At its highest, love is a religious state of consciousness. I love you too, Buddha loves, Jesus loves, but their love demands nothing in return.
Rajneesh
When you feel angry, there is no need to be angry against someone just be angry. Let it be a meditation. Close the room, sit by yourself, and let the anger come up as much as it can. If you feel like beating, beat a pillow.
Rajneesh
One has to love unconditionally - the trees and the rocks and the sun and the moon and the people.
Rajneesh
Walking is Zen, sitting is Zen. Then what will be the quality? Watchfully alert, joyously unmotivated, centered, loving, flowing, one walks. And the walking is sauntering. Loving, alert, watchful, one sits, unmotivated - not sitting for anything in particular, just enjoying how beautiful just sitting doing nothing is, how relaxing, how restful.
Rajneesh
To me, creativity is God. But it will be better if you allow me to change the word god into godliness, because I don`t want to be misunderstood. There is no person like God, but there is tremendous energy - exploding, unending, expanding. This expanding, unending, exploding energy, this creativity, is divine.
Rajneesh
Once your awareness becomes a flame, it burns up the whole slavery that the mind has created.
Rajneesh
Meditation is enough. Everything else follows on its own.
Rajneesh
It is your attachment that creates hell.
Rajneesh
Anger will come and go and the watcher abides. Sadness comes and passes by and the witness remains
Rajneesh
By and by... there are more and more gaps of silence. Through those gaps, windows will open to the divine.
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
Expectation brings frustration. Private ambitions bring failures.
Rajneesh
Boredom and restlessness are deeply related. Whenever you feel boredom, then you feel restlessness. Restlessness is a by-product of boredom.
Rajneesh
Comparison is a very foolish attitude, because each person is unique and incomparable. Once this understanding settles in you, jealousy disappears.
Rajneesh
Death is more important than life. Life is just the trivial, just the superficial death is deeper. Through death you grow to the real life, and through life you only reach death and nothing else.
Rajneesh
Anybody who gives you a belief system is your enemy, because the belief system becomes the barrier for your eyes, you cannot see the truth.
Rajneesh
As long as the I is there, love cannot be. All that we call love is only desire, longing, passion and attachment as long as ego is there, all these bind one.
Rajneesh
Meditation is simply a strange surgical method that cuts you away from all that is not yours and saves only that which is your authentic being.
Rajneesh
If you are unconscious, unaware, you are living only in the body, the mortal. And a person who lives for the body, in the body, and only for the body, lives in sin.
Rajneesh
Once you become aware of your own body and its movements, you will be surprised that you are not your body. This is something of a basic principle, that if you can watch something then you are not it. You are the watcher, not the watched. You are the observer, not the observed. How can you be both?
Rajneesh
