The only thing that matters in life is your own opinion about yourself, nobody can destroy your dignity then, because it is not dependent on anybody's opinion.

More quotes by Rajneesh
This whole society, up to now, has been very violent with the individual. It does not believe in the individual it is against the individual. It tries in every possible way to destroy you for its own purposes. It needs clerks, it needs stationmasters, deputy-collectors, policemen, magistrates, it needs soldiers. It does not need human beings.
Rajneesh
Nobody is here to fulfill your dream. Everybody is here to fulfill his own destiny, his own reality.
Rajneesh
Devotion has its own strange ways. It is not something rational, logical, something that can be explained to you. But it is something, if you go on growing from a student into a disciple, from a disciple into a devotee, and you come so close to the master that there is no distinction at all.
Rajneesh
To be aflame with silence, with joy, is wisdom. It is not through logic but through love. It is not through words but through a wordless state called meditation or a state of no-mind, satori, samadhi.
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
Sometimes happiness comes, sometimes sadness, anger, jealousy - you need not make them your problems
Rajneesh
Rajneeshism is creating a Noahs Ark of consciousness, remaining centered exactly in the middle of the cyclone. You can only escape within, and thats what I teach. I do not teach worship of God or any other ritual but only a scientific way of coming to your innermost core.
Rajneesh
There is no need to be more - you are enough. Everybody is enough.
Rajneesh
Go inwards. Find your inner space, and suddenly, you will find an explosion of light, of beauty, of ecstasy -as if suddenly thousands of roses have blossomed within you and you are full of their fragrance.
Rajneesh
You will find meaning in life only if you create it.It is a poetry to be composed. It is a song to be sung.It is a dance to be danced.
Rajneesh
Live without expectations and there will be no frustration.
Rajneesh
I am here to help you to be total wherever you are in whatsoever state you are - live that state totally. It is only in living a thing totally that one transcends it.
Rajneesh
Meditation is nothing but coming to terms with your inner emptiness: recognizing it, not escaping living through it, not escaping being through it, not escaping. Then suddenly the emptiness becomes the fullness of life.
Rajneesh
One has to love unconditionally - the trees and the rocks and the sun and the moon and the people.
Rajneesh
If you are aware, you speak with awareness. But the awareness comes from the inward being. It flows from the inner being towards others.
Rajneesh
Try to force celibacy upon yourself and your dreams will become sexual, they will have a quality of sexuality.
Rajneesh
You are daydreaming about the future because you have not tasted the present. Start tasting the present. Find out a few moments where you are simply delighting. Looking at the trees, just be the look. Listening to the birds, just be a listening ear. Let them reach to your deepest core. Let their song spread all over your being.
Rajneesh
So the first thing: become aware of death. Think about it, look at it, contemplate it. Do not be afraid, do not escape the fact. It is there and you cannot escape it! It has come into existence with you.
Rajneesh
The mind is continuously running around. It never sits, it can't sit. Sitting seems to be death to it, and in a way it is.
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
