When a man's life becomes poetry, becomes a song, becomes a work of art, a creativity, he has become a sannyasin. Whether he knows it or not, it does not matter. The word 'sannyas' does not matter what matters is the content.

Hence my insistence that music and meditation should go together. That adds a new dimension to both. Both are enriched by it.
Rajneesh
The idea of vegetarianism is of immense value it is based on great reverence for life.
Rajneesh
Act in the moment, live in the present, slowly slowly don't allow the past to interfere And you will be surprised that life is such an eternal wonder, such a mysterious phenomenon and such a great gift that one simply feels constantly in gratitude. So this is my message for you: live in the moment, herenow. That's why I call it divine purity
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
To be a criminal needs great unconsciousness. Meditation destroys your unconsciousness, opens the doors of light and suddenly what you were doing in the darkness starts disappearing.
Rajneesh
Religion can be condensed in a single phrase: total freedom to be oneself.
Rajneesh
If you have found your truth within yourself there is nothing more in this whole existence to find.
Rajneesh
Bring everything up to the surface. Accept your humanity, your animality. Whatsoever is there, accept it without any condemnation. Acceptance is transformation, because through acceptance awareness becomes possible.
Rajneesh
Mind is just in the middle. You are nothing but a mess. If you can go beyond it, intelligence grows in you if you go below it, any intelligence that you had disappears.
Rajneesh
Intellect may arrive at certain inferences, but intellect is an unconsicous phenomenon. You are almost behaving sleepily. Intelligence is awakening, and unless you are fully awake, whatsoever you decide is bound to be wrong somewhere or other.
Rajneesh
The ego can exist only with goals, ambitions, desires.
Rajneesh
The authentic religion teaches you to discover your immortality, to discover the god within you.
Rajneesh
That is the ultimate synthesis - when Zorba becomes a Buddha. I am trying to create here not Zorba the Greek but Zorba the Buddha.
Rajneesh
If you find a saint who has no sense of humour, then he is not a saint at all. Impossible. His very seriousness says that he has not achieved. Once you have some inner experiences of your own you become very playful, you become very innocent, childlike.
Rajneesh
Walk, with awareness. Eat, with awareness. Breathe, with awareness.
Rajneesh
The word 'sin' is beautiful it comes from a root which means 'forgetfulness'. You may not be able to see the connection between forgetfulness and sin, but there IS a connection: forgetfulness means unawareness, unconsciousness.
Rajneesh
There is no greater magic than meditation. To transform the negative into the positive. To transform darkness into light-that is the miracle of meditation.
Rajneesh
'What is celebration?' Rather than dancing, rather than laughing, rather than loving, rather than enjoying this silence, the mind asks: 'What is celebration?'
Rajneesh
Without possessions, success, fame who are you?
Rajneesh
Unless you love yourself, you can't love anybody. Be selfish.
Rajneesh
