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.

More quotes by Rajneesh
If you are not capable of being alone, your relationship is false. It is just a trick to avoid your loneliness, nothing else.
Rajneesh
All alternatives are open. Choose to be blissful. And then there are people who can be blissful even when they are imprisoned, and there are people who remain miserable even when they are living in marble palaces. It all depends on you.
Rajneesh
Seriousness is a sickness... Existense is pure playfulness
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
Move as a total being, and accept things. Just for twenty-four hours, try it - total acceptance, whatsoever happens. Someone insults you, accept it don't react, and see what happens. Suddenly you will feel an energy flowing in you that you have not felt before.
Rajneesh
To live in relationship and yet remain independent, that is what courage is.
Rajneesh
Witnessing can be called the seed and enlightenment can be called the flowers. But begin from witnessing, and then it starts growing. Go on nourishing it, go on caring for it, go on watering it, strengthen it in every possible way - and one day it is going to blossom. That day will be the greatest day of your life.
Rajneesh
The moment you go in, all connections with the outside world are broken all bridges are broken. In fact, the whole world disappears.
Rajneesh
Walk, with awareness. Eat, with awareness. Breathe, with awareness.
Rajneesh
Be happy! and meditation will follow. Be happy, and religion will follow. Happiness is a basic condition. People become religious only when they are unhappy - then their religion is pseudo. Try to understand why you are unhappy.
Rajneesh
Miss the present and you live in boredom. BE in the present and you will be surprised that there is no boredom at all. Start by looking around a little more like a child. Be a child again! That's what meditation is all about: being a child again - a rebirth, being innocent again, not-knowing.
Rajneesh
When love moves to the fifth center then whatever talents you have, any creative dimension, is possible for you. This is the center of creativity. It is not only for songs, not only for music it is for all creativity.
Rajneesh
When sadness comes, accept it. Listen to its song. It has something to give to you. It has a gift which no happiness can give to you, only sadness can give it.
Rajneesh
'I am' is nothing but another name for the ego. Now you will be getting into trouble. If the ego is convinced that the only way is to drop the ego, then who is going to drop whom? And how? It will be like pulling yourself up by your own shoestrings. You will look just silly. Watch each word that you use. 'I am' is nothing but the ego.
Rajneesh
Only man has become an outsider - and because of his own efforts. On his own, he has separated himself from existence.
Rajneesh
If you understand, if you see, if you can feel and experience that you are not separate from existence, that you are one with it, all fear of death disappears because there is nobody to die inside you. In the first place there is nobody at all, existence lives through you.
Rajneesh
And the miracle is: if you can go into your suffering as a meditation, watching, to the deepest roots of it, just through watching, it disappears. You don't have to do anything more than watching. If you have found the authentic cause by your watching, the suffering will disappear.
Rajneesh
Without zest, what is life? Just waiting for death?
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
Easy is right. Begin right and you are easy. . . . Easy is right means natural is right, effortlessness is right, egolessness is right.
Rajneesh
