More quotes by Rajneesh
Accept the responsibility of being yourself as you are, with all that is good and with all that is bad, with all that is beautiful and that which is not beautiful. In that acceptance a transcendence happens and one becomes free.
Rajneesh
Just get out of your own way.
Rajneesh
Hell and heaven are within you, both gates are within you. When you are behaving unconsciously there is the gate of hell when you become alert and conscious, there is the gate of heaven.
Rajneesh
People have judged you you have accepted their idea without any scrutiny. And you are suffering from all kinds of people's judgments, and you are throwing those judgments on other people. And this game has become out of proportion. The whole humanity is suffering from it. If you want to get out of it, the first thing is: Don't judge yourself.
Rajneesh
The ego is goal-oriented. The ego is hankering for the future. It can hanker even for the other life, it can hanker for heaven, it can hanker for nirvana. It doesn`t matter what it hankers for - hankering is what it is, desiring is what it is, projecting into the future is what it is.
Rajneesh
The word relationship is beautiful. The original meaning of the root from which the word to relate comes is exactly the same as to respond. Relationship comes from that word respond. If you have any image of your wife or husband, you cannot respond, and hence relate, to the truth of the person. And we all go on carrying images.
Rajneesh
Sin is a technique of the pseudo-religions. A true religion has no need of the concept at all. The pseudo-religion cannot live without the concept of sin, because sin is the technique of creating guilt in people.
Rajneesh
Man is certainly not creative, but his creativity should not be concerned with God. His creativity should be concerned with making a better world, a better society, better literature, better poetry, better paintings, better sculpture, better human beings.
Rajneesh
When I say be creative I don't mean that you should all go and become great painters and great poets. I simply mean let your life be a painting, let your life be a poem.
Rajneesh
I have a deep reverence for everything that is alive, a reverence for life itself.
Rajneesh
Anxiety comes into existence only when we become identified with small things. And they all pass.
Rajneesh
Drop envy and jealousy, otherwise there is no possibility , because love cannot exist where envy and jealousies exist.
Rajneesh
Celebration is my attitude, unconditional to what life brings.
Rajneesh
First the husband tried to make the wife his possession, and once she is a possession he loses interest. There is some hidden logic in it: his whole interet was to possess now that is finished, and he would like to try some other woman so he can again go on another trip of possesion.
Rajneesh
Frustration is out of expectation expectation is our projection. All kinds of love frustrate unless love is based in meditation.
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
Sex has become more and more attractive because of its condemnation by priests
Rajneesh
Awareness means you come with an inner light, you move fully alert. Each step is taken in awareness - the walking, the coming, the sitting - everything is done in full awareness.
Rajneesh
I am all in favor of the skeptical mind. Do not believe anything unless you have experienced it. Do not believe anything - go on questioning, however long it takes.
Rajneesh
Anger is temporary madness.
Rajneesh
