Sadness comes, joy comes, and everything passes by. What remains always is the witness. The witness is beyond all polarities.

More quotes by Rajneesh
Anybody who says that love is a hindrance on the path of self-realization is not a sage.
Rajneesh
Respect man, love man. Respect his individuality, respect his differences. And that is possible only if you respect your individuality. That is possible only if you are grounded in your own being and you are unafraid.
Rajneesh
Drop dreaming and you are there where you have really been always, but you were never aware. All meditation techniques are just antidream efforts, just dream-negating devices.
Rajneesh
Moving from love, not fear - a beautiful idea, especially when applied literally to the body.
Rajneesh
Try to force celibacy upon yourself and your dreams will become sexual, they will have a quality of sexuality.
Rajneesh
The very essence of meditation is to be so silent that there is no stirring of thoughts in you, that words don't come between you and reality, that the whole net of words falls down, that you are left alone. This aloneness, this purity, this unclouded sky of your being is meditation.
Rajneesh
If your ego is hurt you may become angry. Understand that ego itself is a disease. Dissolve your ego as far as possible. If you have inferiority complex, or have a very deficient ego you will loose your temper very easily.
Rajneesh
Meditation should not be a thing apart from life it should be amidst life, it should be a part of life an organic part, nothing 'put separate'. The temple should exist exactly in the middle of the market, and all distinctions between the sacred and the secular should be dissolved.
Rajneesh
This is something basic to be understood - the ego must come to a peak, it must be strong, it must have attained an integrity - only then can you dissolve it. A weak ego cannot be dissolved. And this becomes a problem.
Rajneesh
To be able to celebrate life is religion. In that very celebration you come close to God. If one is able to celebrate, God is not far away if one is not able to celebrate life, then God does not exist for him. God appears only in deep celebration, when you are so full of joy that all misery has left you, all darkness has left you.
Rajneesh
But then you become closed. Then you start dying as far as your intelligence is concerned because intelligence needs the open sky, the wind, the air, the sun in order to grow, to expand, to flow. To remain alive it needs a constant flow if it becomes stagnant it becomes slowly slowly a dead phenomenon.
Rajneesh
Forget the dancer, the center of the ego. Become the dance. Then the dancer disappears and only the dance remains. Then the dancer is the dance. There is no dancer separate from dance, no dance separate from the dancer.
Rajneesh
Be a loving person rather than in a love relationship - because relationships happen one day and disappear another day. They are flowers in the morning they bloom, by the evening they are gone.
Rajneesh
Never misunderstand seriousness for sincerity. Sincerity is very playful, never serious. It is true, authentic, but never serious. Sincerity does not have a long face, it is bubbling with joy, radiating with an inner joyousness.
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
People expect too much. People who expect heaven always fall into hell - that is the law. Expect heaven and hell is certain. Don't expect heaven and there will never be any hell.
Rajneesh
I say unto you that suffering is not holding you, you are holding suffering
Rajneesh
A creativity that comes out of meditative innocence, of meditative purity. And a real creator is possible only through meditation.
Rajneesh
You exist in time, but you belong to eternity.
Rajneesh
Meditation is perhaps the master key for all our problems.
Rajneesh
