More quotes by Rajneesh
Meditation is the key to open the door, the door of absolute contentment. Mind is always discontented., hence meditation means creating a state of no-mind. That space is always contented.
Rajneesh
Drop envy and jealousy, otherwise there is no possibility , because love cannot exist where envy and jealousies exist.
Rajneesh
Remember, Jesus says: Those who are the last here will be the first in my kingdom of God.
Rajneesh
Respect man, love man. Respect his individuality, respect his differences. And that is possible only if you respect your individuality. That is possible only if you are grounded in your own being and you are unafraid.
Rajneesh
In this world, the greatest courage is to drop the mind aside. The bravest man is who can see the world without the barrier of the mind, just as it is. It is tremendously different, utterly beautiful. There is nobody who is inferior and there is nobody who is superior - there are no distinctions.
Rajneesh
Without love a man is just a body, an empty temple without the deity. With love the deity arrives, the temple is no more empty. That's why love gives such fullness, such deep contentment, such tremendously overflowing joy. Remain in love and let love be the door to the divine.
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
The only thing that matters in life, is your own opinion about yourself.
Rajneesh
This is what enlightenment is all about - a deep understanding that there is no problem. Then, with no problem to solve, what will you do? Immediately you start living. You will eat, you will sleep, you will love, you will work, you will have a chit-chat, you will sing, you will dance - what else is there to do?
Rajneesh
DonĀ“t be unnecessarily burdened by the past. Go on closing the chapters that you have read there is no need to go back again and again. And never judge anything of the past from the new perspective that is arriving, because the new is new, incomparably new and the old was right in its own context, and the new is right in its own context.
Rajneesh
From birth to death you go on living, groping in darkness with no light - and you could have created the light. You cannot find it in the scriptures nobody can hand it to you. It is not purchased or sold it is nontransferable. But you can create it - you can put all your energies together. You can start living consciously from this very moment.
Rajneesh
Meditation is the breath of your soul. Just as breathing is the life of the body, meditation is the life of the soul.
Rajneesh
If you are a man of prayer, existence appears as God, as personal. If you are a man of meditation, existence is impersonal, just a wholeness, a divineness. For the man of prayer there is God for the man of awareness there is godliness but no God.
Rajneesh
Marriage is an institution that teaches a man regularity, frugality, temperance, forbearance and many other splendid virtues he would not need had he stayed single.
Rajneesh
Always choose the new, the less travelled by. Always choose the unknown, the less travelled by.
Rajneesh
When becoming disappears, all the smoke of becoming disappears, there is the flame of being, and that very flame is celebration.
Rajneesh
When mind knows, we call it knowledge. When heart knows, we call it love. And when being knows, we call it meditation.
Rajneesh
If you cannot love yourself, you don't know even the taste of love or what love means.
Rajneesh
But everybody is afraid of death that too is contagious. Your parents are afraid of death, your neighbors are afraid of death. Small children start getting infected by this constant fear all around. Everybody is afraid of death. People don't even want to talk about death.
Rajneesh
The world is not religious because religion is imposed upon us. The parents are in a hurry to impose the church, the state, the country - everybody is in a hurry to impose a certain religion on the child. How foolish! How stupid! Religion needs maturity, great understanding, before one can choose.
