A witnessing consciousness lives in life but with tremendous non-attachment, with great non-possessiveness it possesses nothing. It lives totally, it lives passionately, but still knowing that I don't possess anything.

More quotes by Rajneesh
Being aware of awareness itself only consciousness can get you there to the truth of yourself the immortal inner being.
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
Mind cannot think without duality. Duality is the way of thinking. In silence, all dualities disappear.
Rajneesh
Do not cling to anything, to any idea because clinging is the bondage, even to the idea of enlightenment.
Rajneesh
Only people who want to be somewhere, somebody, have to suffer the sadness of failure. But a person who never wants to be anybody, never wants to be anywhere else, cannot suffer the sadness of failure - he is always successful, just like me.
Rajneesh
God is nothing but creativity. So wherever there is a sign of creativity, God has a signature there. He has already been there. Maybe even the poet does not know, but he has been touched by something from the beyond.
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
My people worship, but not in a church. They worship the beauty of existence.
Rajneesh
Meditation is the art of living with yourself. It is nothing else than that, simply that: the art of being joyously alone. A meditator can sit joyously alone for months, for years. He does not hanker for the other, because his own inner ecstasy is so much, is so overpowering, that who bothers about the other?
Rajneesh
The mind is the world and the no-mind is freedom from the world. The mind is misery and no-mind is the end of misery and the beginning of ecstasy.
Rajneesh
The word devil is very beautiful, if you read it backwards it becomes lived.
Rajneesh
Life is a garden. It is an opportunity. You can grow weeds, you can grow roses it all depends on you.
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
Death is the most misunderstood phenomenon. People have thought of death as the end of life. That is the first, basic misunderstanding.
Rajneesh
Mind is politics, because mind is ambitious and ambition is the root of politics. If you are ambitious you are political. Your ambition may take the form of religion, but the politics is there. Then you are competing with other saints.
Rajneesh
Mind is just in the middle. You are nothing but a mess. If you can go beyond it, intelligence grows in you if you go below it, any intelligence that you had disappears.
Rajneesh
The serious person becomes handicapped, he creates barriers. He cannot dance, he cannot sing, he cannot celebrate. The very dimension of celebration disappears from his life. He becomes desert-like. And if you are a desert, you can go on thinking and pretending that you are religious but you are not.
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
When you are so full that there is no emptiness in you, that you have started feeling the significance of the ordinary, day-to-day existence, when moment to moment you live totally, intensely, passionately, then God is available.
Rajneesh
Spirituality is rebellion religiousness is orthodoxy. Spirituality is individuality religiousness is just remaining part of the crowd psychology. Religiousness keeps you a sheep, and spirituality is a lion's roar.
Rajneesh
