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.

More quotes by Rajneesh
Whatsoever you are waiting for, you are waiting in vain. It is not going to happen, and what is going to happen has nothing to do with your expectations and your desires. You just let it come in don't block the way. Remove yourself out of your own way. This time, with no expectations, no desires, no hopes, just meditate.
Rajneesh
Laughing, how can you fall asleep? It brings a state of no-mind and no-thought, and does not allow you to fall asleep.
Rajneesh
Try to understand the ego. Analyze it, dissect it, watch it, observe it, from as many angles as possible. And don't be in a hurry to sacrifice it, otherwise the greatest egoist is born: the person who thinks he is humble, the person who thinks that he has no ego.
Rajneesh
There is no sorrow except in captivity.
Rajneesh
Tonight go to sleep as though your whole past has been dropped. Die to the past. And in the morning wake up as a new man in a new morning. Don't let the same one who went to bed get up. Let him go to sleep for good. Let the one who is ever-new and ever-fresh awake instead.
Rajneesh
It is within your hands to be frustrated in life or not. Just your expectations should become smaller, smaller, smaller, and in the same proportion the frustration will become smaller. A day will come when there will be no expectation then you will never come across any frustration.
Rajneesh
If you are courageous, listen to the heart. If you are a coward, listen to the head.
Rajneesh
Meditation has only one meaning, and that is going beyond the mind and becoming a witness. In your witnessing is the miracle - the whole mystery of life
Rajneesh
All your knowledge is dust. Knowing is your purity, knowledge is dust.
Rajneesh
Just being alive is such a gift, but nobody ever told you to be thankful to existence.
Rajneesh
All that is great cannot be possessed - and that is one of the most foolish things man goes on doing. We want to possess.
Rajneesh
The whole art of ecstasy, meditation, samadhi, is: How to become one with the rhythm of the universe. When it exhales, you exhale. When it inhales, you inhale. You live in it, are not separate, are one with it.
Rajneesh
The body has to be looked after: one has to be very caring about the body and very loving to the body. And then, its very spontaneity purifies it, makes it holy.
Rajneesh
You have to be whole: rich in the body, rich in science rich in meditation, rich in consciousness.
Rajneesh
Look deep into your throbbing life and you will find the quality of the divine. You will not find a God but you will find a godliness, a truth, an awakening, a buddha.
Rajneesh
When your desires drop, the world is there, but it is a totally new world. It is so fresh, it is so colorful, it is so beautiful! But a mind attached to things cannot see it because eyes are closed with attachment.
Rajneesh
If you were only to listen, it becomes meditation. Without meditation you cannot hear. What is the meaning of meditation? Meditation exists only where mind is not where the internal dialogue is gone.
Rajneesh
You want a love which is born out of meditation, not born out of the mind.
Rajneesh
God is always joking. Look at your own life - it is a joke! Look at other people's lives, and you will find jokes and jokes and jokes. Seriousness is illness seriousness has nothing spiritual about it. Spirituality is laughter, spirituality is joy, spirituality is fun.
Rajneesh
Unless you have the courage to doubt you will never come to know the truth.
Rajneesh
