Quote

Celebration is not because some desire is fulfilled - because no desire is ever fulfilled. Desire as such cannot be fulfilled. Desire is only a way to avoid the present moment. Desire creates the future and takes you far away. Desire is a drug it keeps you stoned, it does not allow you to see the reality - that which is herenow.

Image
Don't be angry at life. It is not life that is frustrating you, it is you who are not listening to life.
Rajneesh
Image
The more you are possession oriented, the less happy you will be. The less happy you are, the farther away from the Divine, from prayer, from gratitude you will be. Be austere. Live with the necessary and forget about desires they are fantasies in the mind, ripples in the lake. They only disturb you, they can never lead you to any contentment.
Rajneesh
Image
Don´t be unnecessarily burdened by the past. Go on closing the chapters that you have read there is no need to go back again and again. And never judge anything of the past from the new perspective that is arriving, because the new is new, incomparably new and the old was right in its own context, and the new is right in its own context.
Rajneesh
Image
To remain absolutely free is what a true and authentic life is. So never gather any character - remain characterless.
Rajneesh
Image
Real music will help you move towards meditation, beyond the mind needs, towards spiritual needs. Real poetry will give you a glimpse of the minds of the sages - a glimpse of course. It will open a window so you can see the faraway distant Himalayas. And then an urge arises in you, and you start travelling.
Rajneesh
Image
God is not a person but creativity, not a creator but creativity.
Rajneesh
Image
I am here be nourished by me. Eat me, drink me be nourished by me. Let me become a part of your being, then I will be available forever and forever. There is no other way.
Rajneesh
Image
Love respects the other. It is a give-and-take relationship. Love enjoys giving, and love enjoys taking. It is a sharing, it is a communication. Both are equal in love in a sexual relationship both are not equal. Love has a totally different beauty to it.
Rajneesh
Image
You want a love which is born out of meditation, not born out of the mind.
Rajneesh
Image
Existence does not listen to your desires, and does not follow your desires, however beautiful and however pious. Existence goes on in its own way.
Rajneesh
Image
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
Image
There is no sorrow except in captivity.
Rajneesh
Image
Without love a man is just a body, an empty temple without the deity. With love the deity arrives, the temple is no more empty. That's why love gives such fullness, such deep contentment, such tremendously overflowing joy. Remain in love and let love be the door to the divine.
Rajneesh
Image
And remember, that is the criterion. If a person can enjoy and celebrate his death, that shows he has lived rightly there is no other criterion. Your death will prove how you have lived.
Rajneesh
Image
Except for our bodies there are no other temples in the world
Rajneesh
Image
Life is a continuity always and always. There is no final destination it is going towards. Just the pilgrimage, just the journey in itself is life, not reaching to some point, no goal - just dancing and being in pilgrimage, moving joyously, without bothering about any destination.
Rajneesh
Image
respect life,revere life.there is nothing more holy than life,nothing more divine than life.
Rajneesh
Image
Knowledge is also borrowed. It is not a flower that grows in your soul, it is something plastic that has been imposed upon you.
Rajneesh
Image
Mind cannot think without duality. Duality is the way of thinking. In silence, all dualities disappear.
Rajneesh
Image
Only no-mind can be without any duality, because it is empty. The no-mind is choicelessness. The no-mind is pure awareness. It is just the empty sky.
Rajneesh
