In the name of celibacy, sex has been repressed for centuries and you have become just full of sexuality. Rather than transcending it you are boiling within.

More quotes by Rajneesh
Mind only thinks, meditation lives.
Rajneesh
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
Zen lives in the present. The Whole teaching is: how to be in the present how to get out of the past which is no more and how not to get involved in the future which is not yet, and just to be rooted, centered, in that which is.
Rajneesh
In life you may be poor or rich, but death is the great equalizer. The greatest communism is in death. Howsoever you live, it makes no difference death happens equally. In life, equality is impossible in death, inequality is impossible. Become aware of it, contemplate it.
Rajneesh
If you go on loving a person deeply, by and by sex disappears. Intimacy becomes so fulfilling, then there is no need for sex love is enough unto itself. When that moment comes then there is the possibility of prayer dawning upon you.
Rajneesh
What is envy? It is nothing but passive jealousy. Maybe jealousy is too strong a phenomenon envy is a little passive. The difference may be of degrees, but it is not of quality, it is only of quantity. Envy can become jealousy at any moment envy is just jealousy in progress. Mind has to drop all envies and jealousies.
Rajneesh
Meditation is to get out of your psychosis and to get out of your neurosis it is simply to slip out of them.
Rajneesh
Do the small things of life with a relaxed awareness. When you are eating, eat totally - chew totally, taste totally, smell totally. Touch your bread, feel the texture. Smell the bread, smell the flavor. Chew it, let it dissolve into your being.
Rajneesh
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
I am not against marriage - without marriage, ninety-nine percent jokes will disappear from the world. How I can be against marriage? I am all for it.
Rajneesh
Every man now is responsible to create a buddhafield around himself, an energy field that goes on becoming bigger and bigger. Create as many vibrations of laughter, joy, celebration, as possible dance, sing, let the whole of humanity by and by catch the fire of Zen and the wind of Zen.
Rajneesh
Today it may seem that your anger is very strong, how can meditation break it? But it breaks - it has always broken. Rock is very strong and meditation is very delicate, but this is the mystery of life - the continuity of the delicate can break the strongest and the hardest.
Rajneesh
Bravery does not mean being fearless. It means to be full of fear but still not being dominated by it.
Rajneesh
Love is a state of being it has nothing to do with anybody else. One is not in love, one is love.
Rajneesh
Relationship is a mirror.. Every moment the other reveals you, exposes you. The closer the relationship, the clearer is the mirror.
Rajneesh
No, I don't want to give my people sticks. I want to give them eyes.
Rajneesh
All our attachments are outward oriented and hence this illusion.
Rajneesh
Why do people hanker for the home? - security, safety. But in the name of security and safety, they don't make homes, they make prisons - and they are the jailed and they are the jailers, but because they have the keys in their own hands, they think they are free.
Rajneesh
Death is more important than life. Life is just the trivial, just the superficial death is deeper. Through death you grow to the real life, and through life you only reach death and nothing else.
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
