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
In the East a man becomes divine only when he is no longer jealous, a man is thought to be enlightened only when he is no longer jealous. Jealousy is a by-product of the ego and when the ego disappears jealousy disappears. You cannot offend a buddha. Whatsoever you do you cannot offend him.
Rajneesh
What I am saying is that there is no need for anybody to suffer. Just be aware, let awareness be there. Anger will arise and will be consumed by awareness. One cannot be angry with awareness and one cannot be greedy with awareness and one cannot be jealous with awareness. Awareness is the golden key.
Rajneesh
Philosophers are never happy here. Now is not their time, and here is not their space. They live there, they live somewhere else.
Rajneesh
The perfectionist is bound to be a neurotic, he cannot enjoy life, until he is perfect. And perfection as such never happens, it is not in the nature of things. Totality is possible, perfection is not possible.
Rajneesh
By and by... there are more and more gaps of silence. Through those gaps, windows will open to the divine.
Rajneesh
People say love is blind because they do not know what love is. I say unto you, only love has eyes other than love, everything is blind.
Rajneesh
The word relationship is beautiful. The original meaning of the root from which the word to relate comes is exactly the same as to respond. Relationship comes from that word respond. If you have any image of your wife or husband, you cannot respond, and hence relate, to the truth of the person. And we all go on carrying images.
Rajneesh
In love the other is important in lust you are important
Rajneesh
Sometimes happiness comes, sometimes sadness, anger, jealousy - you need not make them your problems
Rajneesh
Meditation makes you innocent, it makes you childlike. In that state, miracles are possible. That state is pure magic. A great transformation happens - in innocence you transcend the mind, and to transcend the mind is to become the Awakened One, the Enlightened One.
Rajneesh
The world can come to a harmony if meditation is spread far and wide.
Rajneesh
Meditation is the art of dying. Then your ego will be shocked. And it is also truer to cal I it the art of dying, because you r ego is not going to grow, your ego is going to die in meditation.
Rajneesh
Die each moment so that you are renewed each moment.
Rajneesh
Joy arises only in creating joy for others there is no other way. The more people you can make happy, the more you will feel happy. This is the real meaning of service.
Rajneesh
Mind is a door that leads you outside in the world meditation is the door that leads you to your interiority - to the very innermost shrine of your being.
Rajneesh
Beware of dreams! And watch your dreams day in, day out, because they are continuously there. You can watch them, and by watching them you will become unidentified with them, you will become a mirror reflecting them. And this brings great freedom. Freedom from dreams is freedom from the world.
Rajneesh
Through meditation one has to achieve a dreamless sleep with full alertness. Once this happens, the drop falls into the ocean and becomes the ocean.
Rajneesh
How can one become enlightened? One can, because one is enlightened - one just has to recognize the fact.
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
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
