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

More quotes by Rajneesh
The whole of life has become an institution, a madhouse in which duties are to be fulfilled not love in which you have to behave, not be spontaneous in which a pattern has to be followed, not the overflow of life and energy. That's why the mind thinks and decides everything, because there is danger.
Rajneesh
Meditation is your awakening. The moment you awake, sleep disappears and with it all the dreams, all the projections, all expectations, all desires. Suddenly you are in a state of desirelessness, non-ambition, unfathomable silence. And only in this silence, blossoms flower in your being. Only in this silence the lotuses open their petals.
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
During the first seven years, every society tries to condition the mind - and conditioning means nothing but hypnosis: forcing authority, law, tradition, religion, scripture, the priest, the church, into the innermost unconscious of the child so that from there you can control him.
Rajneesh
Frustration is out of expectation expectation is our projection. All kinds of love frustrate unless love is based in meditation.
Rajneesh
Here, fire turns into water Here, the dancing of the rain declares the sun. There's no opposition in existence, no contradiction Everything supports everything else.
Rajneesh
Sex has become more and more attractive because of its condemnation by priests
Rajneesh
Whatsoever you can be you are. There is no goal. And we are not going anywhere. We are simply celebrating here. Existence is not a journey, it is a celebration. Think of it as a celebration, as a delight, as a joy! Don't turn it into a suffering, don't turn it into a duty, a work. Let it be play.
Rajneesh
Tomorrow-drop that word from your vocabulary! Tomorrow does not exist, it cannot exist: it is not in the nature of things. Only this day exists.
Rajneesh
Responsibility is awareness, alertness, consciousness. Ego is just unconsciousness. They cannot coexist. As you grow more conscious you grow more towards light, and anything belonging to the world of darkness starts disappearing. Ego is nothing but darkness.
Rajneesh
The whole existence is a temple...the trees are continously in worship, the clouds are in prayer and the mountains are in meditation.
Rajneesh
Attachment is misery, but from the very beginning the child is taught for attachment. The mother will say to the child, Love me I am your mother. The father will say, Love me I am your father - as if someone is a father or a mother so he becomes automatically lovable.
Rajneesh
That's what I call meditation. You simply stand aloof and just see the mind disappearing, like a cloud on a faraway horizon, leaving the sky clean and pure. And in that state arises your consciousness in its full glory, in its full celebration.
Rajneesh
The miserable person is easily enslaved.The cheerful person,the blissful person,cannot be enslaved.
Rajneesh
Anger will come and go and the watcher abides. Sadness comes and passes by and the witness remains
Rajneesh
Drop envy and jealousy, otherwise there is no possibility , because love cannot exist where envy and jealousies exist.
Rajneesh
In fact everything can become a sort of meditation, because in everything there are two dimensions - just as there are in the first breath: the outer and the inner.
Rajneesh
You can become happy just by deciding to be happy.
Rajneesh
Pleasure is always something apposed to pain it is never separate from pain
Rajneesh
Meditation is not your doing. You simply make the effort, but it is not your doing. Your effort is needed to prepare the ground. As the ground is ready, immediately you see you are no more the whole cosmos is. You have entered a greater womb, an eternal womb of tremendous peace and ecstasy.
Rajneesh
