Rajneesh
Life is a garden. It is an opportunity. You can grow weeds, you can grow roses it all depends on you.
Rajneesh
Creativity is the greatest rebellion in existence.
Rajneesh
My whole teaching consists of two words, meditation and love. Meditate so that you can feel immense silence, and love so that your life can become a song, a dance, a celebration. You will have to move between the two, and if you can move easily, if you can move without any effort, you have learned the greatest thing in life.
Rajneesh
Meditation is a silent heart, a peaceful mind which can make life more lovable, more livable.
Rajneesh
Peace follows love energy like a shadow.
Rajneesh
This whole society, up to now, has been very violent with the individual. It does not believe in the individual it is against the individual. It tries in every possible way to destroy you for its own purposes. It needs clerks, it needs stationmasters, deputy-collectors, policemen, magistrates, it needs soldiers. It does not need human beings.
Rajneesh
Meditation has only one meaning, and that is going beyond the mind and becoming a witness. In your witnessing is the miracle - the whole mystery of life
Rajneesh

Rajneesh
Zen people love Buddha so tremendously that they can even play jokes upon him. It is out of great love they are not afraid.
Rajneesh
The mind is the world and the no-mind is freedom from the world. The mind is misery and no-mind is the end of misery and the beginning of ecstasy.
Rajneesh
Hence the tension, the anxiety, the anguish of humanity. The more you fight with death, the more anxiety-ridden you will become, you are bound to become. That's a natural consequence of it.
Rajneesh
Nobody can teach you love. Love you have to find yourself, within your being, by raising your consciousness to higher levels.
Rajneesh
The ego is an island in the ocean of Hell. You want to get rid of the Hell but you don't want to get rid of that island. Then there is trouble.
Rajneesh
During the first seven years, every society tries to condition the mind - and conditioning means nothing but hypnosis: forcing authority, law, tradition, religion, scripture, the priest, the church, into the innermost unconscious of the child so that from there you can control him.
Rajneesh
Only those persons who have lived, really lived, are ready, welcoming, receptive, thankful to death. Then death is not the enemy. Then death becomes the fulfillment.
Rajneesh
