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
All desiring is desiring for the futile. It leads only into frustration.
Rajneesh
Love is the lotus, lust is the mud the lotus arises out of.
Rajneesh
Bliss follows witnessing - and that is going to be your meditation. Witness your body as separate, witness your mind as separate. Remain rooted in witnessing: I am only a watcher. That is going to transform your whole life, it is going to give you the ultimate.
Rajneesh
Hence the tension, the anxiety, the anguish of humanity. The more you fight with death, the more anxiety-ridden you will become, you are bound to become. That's a natural consequence of it.
Rajneesh
Being is so significant that it is irreplaceable. You are just yourself. Do something that comes out of you - not to assert, but to express! Sing your song, dance your dance, rejoice in being whatever nature has chosen you to be.
Rajneesh
Meditation is unfocussed mind, you simply listen silently, not with a tension in the mind, not with an urge to know and learn, no, with total relaxedness, in a let go, in an opening of your being. You listen, not to know, you simply listen to understand.
Rajneesh
Friendship is the purest love. It is the highest form of Love where nothing is asked for, no condition, where one simply enjoys giving.
Rajneesh
Life is not a tragedy, it is a comedy. To be alive means to have a sense of humor.
Rajneesh
Just as the day cannot exist without the night, just as life cannot exist without death, creativity cannot exist without silence. And vice versa is also true: silence cannot exist without creativity.
Rajneesh
Move inwards! Contentment is a quality of your center it is not found on the circumference. Fulfillment is when you have arrived at your real, authentic being it is not found in the ego.
Rajneesh
You become so intense that you are not there, because if you are there then the intensity cannot be total then two are there. If you love and the lover is there, then love cannot be intense. Love so deeply, so totally, that the lover disappears. Then you are just an energy moving. Then you will know love, you will know life, you will know death.
Rajneesh
Love has these three stages, and compassion accordingly has three stages, and both can exist in different combinations.
Rajneesh
Your honesty, Your love, Your compassion should come from your inner being, not from teachings and scriptures.
Rajneesh
Meditation is perhaps the master key for all our problems.
Rajneesh
That is one of the great secrets of life, that life is a movement. And if you are stuck somewhere you lose contact with life.
Rajneesh
The authentic religion teaches you to discover your immortality, to discover the god within you.
Rajneesh
The ego is goal-oriented. The ego is hankering for the future. It can hanker even for the other life, it can hanker for heaven, it can hanker for nirvana. It doesn`t matter what it hankers for - hankering is what it is, desiring is what it is, projecting into the future is what it is.
Rajneesh
Zen is not effort. Effort is tension, effort is work, effort is to achieve something. Zen is not something to achieve. You are already that. Just relax, relax so deeply that you become a revelation to yourself.
Rajneesh
Once your awareness becomes a flame, it burns up the whole slavery that the mind has created.
Rajneesh
Hence my insistence that music and meditation should go together. That adds a new dimension to both. Both are enriched by it.
Rajneesh
