There is only one courage and that is the courage to go on dying to the past, not to collect it, not to accumulate it, not to cling to it. We all cling to the past and because we cling to the past we become unavailable to the present.

More quotes by Rajneesh
Find godliness and good will come on its own accord. And when good comes on its own accord, it has a beauty, a grace, a simplicity, a humbleness.
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
Boredom and restlessness are deeply related. Whenever you feel boredom, then you feel restlessness. Restlessness is a by-product of boredom.
Rajneesh
You can change your attachment from this to that, but you will be in misery. Attachment creates misery.
Rajneesh
Mind is a door that leads you outside in the world meditation is the door that leads you to your interiority - to the very innermost shrine of your being.
Rajneesh
The inner emptiness is the door to God.
Rajneesh
To be alone and to be drunk with your own aloneness is what meditation is all about. Be in the world, but don't be of it.
Rajneesh
If you are absolutely without mind, just pure consciousness, time stops completely, disappears, leaving no trace behind.
Rajneesh
Let this be the criterion always: anything that makes you festive, anything that gives you celebration, anything that makes you dance and sing to such an extent that you disappear in your dancing, in your singing, in your celebration... is the only true religion I know of.
Rajneesh
I resolve never to make any resolutions because all resolutions are restrictions for the future. All resolutions are imprisonments.
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
Learn to be more meditative, and let your creativity be secondary to your meditativeness. Then you will have a totally different state of being - that of ecstasy and out of ecstasy, whatever is created has also some flavor of it.
Rajneesh
There is no greater magic than meditation. To transform the negative into the positive. To transform darkness into light-that is the miracle of meditation.
Rajneesh
Old age is your own creation: it can be a misery, it can be a celebration it can be simply a despair, and it can also be a dance. It all depends how deeply ready you are to accept existence, whatsoever it brings.
Rajneesh
Being is so significant that it is irreplaceable. You are just yourself. Do something that comes out of you - not to assert, but to express! Sing your song, dance your dance, rejoice in being whatever nature has chosen you to be.
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
It is a way to avoid difficulties, but whenever you avoid difficulties and challenges you have avoided growth also. Married people never grow. Lovers grow, because they have to meet the challenge every moment - and with no security. They have to create an inner phenomenon. With security you need not bother to create anything the society helps.
Rajneesh
[W]hen the mind is really absent, in that silence, in that unlimited space, your potential starts glowing, radiating, flowering. Suddenly you are full of cherry blossoms, a new presence, a new fragrance.
Rajneesh
The beauty is in finding, not in what you find that is just an excuse.
Rajneesh
In love the other is important in lust you are important
Rajneesh
