More quotes by Rajneesh
You cease totally and only then you arrive. You enter into the world of God, or godliness, only when you are no more.
Rajneesh
It is impossible to pursue happiness. Nobody has ever pursued it. One has to wait for it. And it is not a right at all. No law court can force you to be happy or force happiness to be with you. No government violence is capable of making you happy. No power can make you happy.
Rajneesh
Remember, don't start trying to relax that is the most absurd thing in the world. And there are many stupid people writing books about relaxation. I have come across one book - the name of the book is YOU MUST RELAX! Now that very word 'must' is enough to keep you tense. Relaxation cannot be a must, it cannot be an effort.
Rajneesh
Relaxation is one of the most complex phenomena - very rich, multidimensional. All these things are part of it: let-go, trust, surrender, love, acceptance, going with the flow, union with existence, egolessness, ecstasy. All these are part of it, and all these start happening if you learn the ways of relaxation.
Rajneesh
The real religion is not imitation of anybody else, it is a search to find out your own authentic self, who you are.
Rajneesh
I love, because my love is not dependent on the object of love. My love is dependent on my state of being. So whether the other person changes, becomes different, friend turns into a foe, does not matter, because my love was never dependent on the other person. My love is my state of being. I simply love.
Rajneesh
Love is the lotus, lust is the mud the lotus arises out of.
Rajneesh
Mind cannot think without duality. Duality is the way of thinking. In silence, all dualities disappear.
Rajneesh
My whole effort here is to keep you as non-serious as possible, for the simple reason that meditation, all kinds of meditation, can make you too serious and that seriousness will create a spiritual disease and nothing else. Unless a meditation brings you more laughter, more joy, more playfulness, avoid it. It is not for you.
Rajneesh
All this knowledge of the objective world is of no value in comparison to having a little glimpse of the inner sky and its beauty - its sunrises and sunsets, its days and nights, its blue sky and its stars. The outer then looks only a pale reflection of the inner. The inner becomes more real and the outer becomes just a shadow.
Rajneesh
To come across a Master and to miss the Master is the greatest accident, very unfortunate, that can happen to a man.
Rajneesh
Hell and heaven are within you, both gates are within you. When you are behaving unconsciously there is the gate of hell when you become alert and conscious, there is the gate of heaven.
Rajneesh
Watch, witness. Your body is not you your mind is not you. You are just a pure witness.
Rajneesh
The parents, the society, the state, the church, the educational system, they all depend on lies. As the child is born they start trapping it into lies. And the child is helpless. He cannot escape his parents, he is utterly dependent. You can exploit his dependence...and it has been exploited down the ages.
Rajneesh
Existence does not listen to your desires, and does not follow your desires, however beautiful and however pious. Existence goes on in its own way.
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
Look at the trees, look at the birds, look at the clouds, look at the stars-and if you have eyes you will be able to see that the whole existence is joyful.
Rajneesh
Guilt simply says that you are a sinner. And the feeling of shame simply shows you that you need not be a sinner, that you are meant to be a saint. If you are a sinner it is only because of your unconsciousness you are not a sinner because the society follows a certain morality and you are not following it.
Rajneesh
The ego is nothing but condensed unawareness. When you become aware by and by that condensed unawareness we call 'ego' disappears. Just as if you bring a lamp into the room - and the darkness disappears. Awareness is the lamp, the lamp we were talking about the first day. Be a lamp unto yourself.
Rajneesh
Religion can be condensed in a single phrase: total freedom to be oneself.
Rajneesh
