More quotes by Rajneesh
Tonight go to sleep as though your whole past has been dropped. Die to the past. And in the morning wake up as a new man in a new morning. Don't let the same one who went to bed get up. Let him go to sleep for good. Let the one who is ever-new and ever-fresh awake instead.
Rajneesh
If you can come to this nowness without sex, sex, by and by will become useless, it will disappear. It will not be a desire then. If you want to move in it you can move into it as a fun, but not as a desire. Then there is no obsession in it because you are not dependent on it.
Rajneesh
Mind is the absence of meditation. The moment meditation arises in you, mind is found nowhere.
Rajneesh
If you move in the present moment, the whole eternity is in your hands.
Rajneesh
The ego and the personality have to be dropped, then you will find individuality arising...a feeling of uniqueness. Yes, you are unique. Everybody else is also unique. In this world only unique people exist, so comparison is just stupid, because you alone are like yourself. There is nobody like you, so how to compare?
Rajneesh
Meditation is just a courage to be silent and alone. Slowly slowly, you start feeling a new quality to yourself, a new aliveness, a new beauty, a new intelligence—which is not borrowed from anybody, which is growing within you. It has roots in your existence.
Rajneesh
You are not feeling empty because you don't have much money. You are feeling empty because you have not yet encountered your real self, you have not come to your authentic individuality.
Rajneesh
The mind always hankers for more and more. If you have money, it hankers for more money if you have prestige, it hankers for more prestige if you have knowledge, it hankers for more knowledge. Mind lives in the 'more.'
Rajneesh
I'll never make any resolutions. Drop all resolutions! Let life be a natural spontaneity. The only golden rule is that there are no golden rules.
Rajneesh
Anger is fear in disguise.
Rajneesh
The body has to be looked after: one has to be very caring about the body and very loving to the body. And then, its very spontaneity purifies it, makes it holy.
Rajneesh
Marriage is a formality, a legal bondage. Love is of the heart marriage is of the mind. That's why I am never in favor of marriage.
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
You want a love which is born out of meditation, not born out of the mind.
Rajneesh
Jesus moved in a very poor world. People were seeking their own solutions. Many were helped - not that Jesus was helping - they were helped. And Jesus says again and again: It is your faith that has healed you. When you have faith, compassion can pour into you. When you have faith, you are open to compassion.
Rajneesh
Never belong to a crowd Never belong to a nation Never belong to a religion Never belong to a race. Belong to the whole existence. Why limit yourself to small things? When the whole is available.
Rajneesh
The whole play of existence is so beautiful that laughter can be the only response to it. Only laughter can be the real prayer, gratitude.
Rajneesh
The deeper you surrender to existence, life, nature, the more loving, more understanding, more insightful you become.
Rajneesh
The greatest adventure that can happen to a human being is the movement from mind to no-mind, the movement from personality to individuality. The no-mind has an individuality: the mind is social.
Rajneesh
The future of humanity will move closer and closer toward the approach of Zen, because the meeting of the East and West is possible only through something like Zen, which is earthly and yet unearthly.
Rajneesh
