That is the ultimate synthesis - when Zorba becomes a Buddha. I am trying to create here not Zorba the Greek but Zorba the Buddha.

More quotes by Rajneesh
Modern art is childish - not childlike, remember, childish not innocent but stupid, insane, pathological. We have to get rid of this trend. We have to create a new kind of art, a new kind of creativity. We have to bring to the world again what Gurdjieff calls objective art.
Rajneesh
Buddha introduced the idea that young people should become sannyasins. Then it is something significant. When a young person goes beyond sex, when a young person goes beyond desires, when a young person goes beyond greed, ambition, the longing to be powerful, the ambition to be famous, then it is something tremendously meaningful, significant.
Rajneesh
The beauty is in finding, not in what you find that is just an excuse.
Rajneesh
Children can be taught meditation more easily because they are not yet spoiled. When you have been spoiled the hard work is to help you to unlearn.
Rajneesh
Any human being who is becoming independent of conditionings, of religions, scriptures, prophets and messiahs, has arrived home. He has found the treasure which was hidden in his own being.
Rajneesh
Spread compassion all around you. Look around you - people are so unhappy, don't add to their unhappiness. Your compassion will lessen their unhappiness just one word of compassion will lessen their unhappiness. Don't add to their unhappiness.
Rajneesh
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
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
Easy is right. Begin right and you are easy. . . . Easy is right means natural is right, effortlessness is right, egolessness is right.
Rajneesh
You cannot drop the ego. Once you start trying to drop the ego you will get in a very deep mess you will become more and more worried and puzzled. And this is not the way to get rid of the ego. The only way to get rid of the ego is to look at it.
Rajneesh
People can live tremendously rich, blissful, ecstatic lives. But the first thing is, we have to accept our responsibility.
Rajneesh
There are a few activities which are immensely valuable: laughter is one of these activities. Singing, dancing, are also of the same quality, but laughter is the quickest.
Rajneesh
The mind is constantly talking. If the inner talk can drop even for a single moment you will be able to have a glimpse of no-mind. That's what meditation is all about. The state of no-mind is the right state. It is your state.
Rajneesh
Life begins where fear ends.
Rajneesh
Become more and more innocent, less knowledgeable and more childlike. Take life as fun - because that's precisely what it is!
Rajneesh
Deep love creates deep fear. It looks like death because the I disappears, the you disappears - and it is a sort of death. And when you die, only then do you enter into the divine.
Rajneesh
Enlightenment is choicelessness. But don`t misunderstand me. Before that, you will have to move very cautiously, choosing the right against the wrong, choosing the truer so that you can reach to the ultimate truth.
Rajneesh
Truth is not to be found outside. No teacher, no scripture can give it to you. It is inside you and if you wish to attain it, seek your own company. Be with yourself.
Rajneesh
Meditation, witnessing, silently sitting and looking at the mind, will be of much help. Not forcing, simply sitting and looking. Not doing much, just watching as one watches birds flying in the sky. Just Lying down on the ground and watching, nothing to do, indifferent. Not your concern really, where they are going they are going on their own.
Rajneesh
Eyes which have lost their tears have lost their most beautiful, their most glorious treasure.
Rajneesh
