Whatever you choose you will repent because the other will remain and haunt you. If one needs absolute freedom then choiceless awareness is the only thing.

More quotes by Rajneesh
Zen is not a philosophy, it is poetry. It does not propose, it simply persuades. It does not argue, it simply sings its own song.
Rajneesh
Choice is bondage, choicelessness freedom. The moment you choose something, you have fallen in the trap of the world. If you can resist the temptation to choose, if you can remain choicelessly aware, the trap disappears on its own accord, because when you don`t choose you don`t help the trap to be there - the trap is also created by your choice.
Rajneesh
Once you have known the generosity of existence you will never feel miserable.
Rajneesh
All your seriousness is about sandcastles. And you yourself will leave them one day, trampling them down, and you will not look back. The people who take it seriously miss the beauty of playfulness.
Rajneesh
Advice is like food, and teaching is a menu.
Rajneesh
Witnessing can be called the seed and enlightenment can be called the flowers. But begin from witnessing, and then it starts growing. Go on nourishing it, go on caring for it, go on watering it, strengthen it in every possible way - and one day it is going to blossom. That day will be the greatest day of your life.
Rajneesh
Walk, with awareness. Eat, with awareness. Breathe, with awareness.
Rajneesh
As you are now you are just a liquid phenomenon, changing every moment, nothing stable. Really you cannot claim any I -- you don't have one. You are many Is just in a flow, a riverlike flow. You are a crowd, not an individual yet. But meditation can make you an individual.
Rajneesh
When mind knows, we call it knowledge. When heart knows, we call it love. And when being knows, we call it meditation.
Rajneesh
The heart knows nothing of the past, nothing of the future it knows only of the present.
Rajneesh
Jesus was a crackpot.
Rajneesh
The world is not religious because religion is imposed upon us. The parents are in a hurry to impose the church, the state, the country - everybody is in a hurry to impose a certain religion on the child. How foolish! How stupid! Religion needs maturity, great understanding, before one can choose.
Rajneesh
Every action is self-perpetuating, every thought is self-perpetuating. Once you cooperate with it, you are giving energy to it. Sooner or later it will become habitual. You will do it and you will not be the doer you will do it just because of the force of habit.
Rajneesh
1.If you can bring your consciousness, your awareness, your intelligence to the act, if you can be spontaneous, then there is no need for any other religion, life itself will be the religion.
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
Don´t be unnecessarily burdened by the past. Go on closing the chapters that you have read there is no need to go back again and again. And never judge anything of the past from the new perspective that is arriving, because the new is new, incomparably new and the old was right in its own context, and the new is right in its own context.
Rajneesh
Truth is not to be found outside. No teacher, no scripture can give it to you. It is inside you and if you wish to attain it, seek your own company. Be with yourself.
Rajneesh
Accept yourself as you are. And that is the most difficult thing in the world, because it goes against your training, education, your culture.
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
If you work without love, you are working like a slave. When you work with love, you work like an emperor. Your work is your joy, your work is your dance.
Rajneesh
