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.

More quotes by Rajneesh
When sadness comes, just sit by the side and look at it and say, I am the watcher, I am not sadness, and see the difference. Immediately you have cut the very root of sadness. It is no more nourished. It will die of starvation. We feed these emotions by being identified with them.
Rajneesh
Meditation or religion is a totally different world: it is relaxation, it is let-go - it is not concentration at all. It is not one-pointedness, it is no-pointedness.
Rajneesh
If you deceive someone, you lose one of life's greatest treasures, you lose the capacity to trust. Because without trust, love is not possible.
Rajneesh
You will find a blissfulness which contains in it sadness also, because that sadness gives it depth. Watch Buddha's statue - blissful, but still sad. The very word sad gives you wrong connotations - that something is wrong. This is your interpretation. To me, life in its totality is good.
Rajneesh
If you ask Zen people they will say tea is not something that you pour with unawareness and drink like any other drink. It is not a drink, it is meditation it is prayer. So they listen to the kettle creating a melody, and in that listening they become more silent, more alert.
Rajneesh
It has nothing to do with your desires and their fulfillment, with your hopes and their fulfillment it is already the case. But to see the celebration that is already happening at the deepest core of your being you will have to drop becoming, you will have to understand the futility of becoming.
Rajneesh
Dance as if this is the last dance. Dance with abandon, holding nothing back. That will bring transformation to your being, and a possibility of transformation for other people too.
Rajneesh
I teach you celebration. And laughter has certainly to be one of the major ingredients in this celebration.
Rajneesh
You have to drop all your defenses, only then is intimacy possible. We are all hiding a thousand and on things, not only from others but from ourselves.
Rajneesh
When you are sharing your joy, you don't create a prison for anybody - you simply give. You don´t even expect gratitude or thankfulness, because you are giving, but not to get anything, not even gratitude. You are giving because you are so full of joy and life, you have to give.
Rajneesh
Real love is not an escape from loneliness, real love is an overflowing aloneness. One is so happy in being alone that one wud like to share.
Rajneesh
Don't think in terms of comfort think in terms of freedom. Don't think in terms of safety, think in terms of being more alive. And the only way to be more alive is to live dangerously, is to risk, is to go on an adventure. And the greatest adventure is not going to the moon - the greatest adventure is going to your own innermost core.
Rajneesh
Try vegetarianism and you will be surprised: meditation becomes far easier. Love becomes more subtle, loses its grossness — becomes more sensitive but less sensuous, becomes more prayerful and less sexual. And your body also starts taking on a different vibe. You become more graceful, softer, more feminine, less aggressive, more receptive.
Rajneesh
Whatsoever you are doing...be double-arrowed.
Rajneesh
No God is needed, no heaven and hell are needed. All that is needed is a simple understanding that mind is the source of negativities.
Rajneesh
Zen is a totally different kind of religion. It brings humanness to religion. It is not bothered about anything superhuman its whole concern is how to make ordinary life a blessing.
Rajneesh
Man is always exploited through fear.
Rajneesh
One just needs a little alertness to see and find out: Life is really a great cosmic laughter.
Rajneesh
Learn to laugh. Seriousness is a sin, and it is a disease. Laughter has tremendous beauty, a lightness. It will bring lightness to you, and it will give you wings to fly.
Rajneesh
When love and hate are both absent everything becomes clear and undisguised.
