More quotes by Rajneesh
You can go on changing the outer for lives and you will never be satisfied.
Rajneesh
Life is not a tragedy, it is a comedy. To be alive means to have a sense of humor.
Rajneesh
Don't choose. If you choose, you will be in the quagmire. Don't choose! A choiceless awareness is the goal. Just remain aloof don't choose. The moment you choose, you have fallen into the trap of the world, or into the trap of the mind.
Rajneesh
Don't seek, don't search, don't ask, don't knock, don't demand - relax. If you relax, it comes. If you relax, it is there. If you relax, you start vibrating with it.
Rajneesh
Vegetarianism functioned as a purification. When you eat animals you are more under the law of necessity. You are heavy, you gravitate more towards the earth. When you are a vegetarian you are light and you are more under the law of grace, under the law of power, and you start gravitating towards the sky.
Rajneesh
I conceive of a world without poverty, without classes, without nations, without religions, without any kind of discrimination. I conceive of a world which is one, a humanity which is one, a humanity which shares everything outer and inner a deep spiritual brotherhood.
Rajneesh
I say unto you that suffering is not holding you, you are holding suffering
Rajneesh
Philosophers are never happy here. Now is not their time, and here is not their space. They live there, they live somewhere else.
Rajneesh
Meditation, witnessing, silently sitting and looking at the mind, will be of much help. Not forcing, simply sitting and looking. Not doing much, just watching as one watches birds flying in the sky. Just Lying down on the ground and watching, nothing to do, indifferent. Not your concern really, where they are going they are going on their own.
Rajneesh
Because we cling to the past we become unavailable to the present.
Rajneesh
To be choiceless is to be in meditation. To be choiceless is to enter the eternal.
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
If you are a parent, open doors to unknown directions to the child so he can explore. Don't make him afraid of the unknown,give him support.
Rajneesh
The family gives you ambition, and ambition is one of the hindrances for enlightenment. It gives you desires, it gives you a longing to be successful, and all these things create your tensions, your anxieties: how to be a celebrity?
Rajneesh
If somebody asks, What is a dance? how can you define it? But you can dance and you can know the inner feel of it.
Rajneesh
When a man's life becomes poetry, becomes a song, becomes a work of art, a creativity, he has become a sannyasin. Whether he knows it or not, it does not matter. The word 'sannyas' does not matter what matters is the content.
Rajneesh
Meditation is not doing anything directly to your violence, not doing anything to your jealousy, to your hate. It is simply brining light into your house, and the darkness disappears.
Rajneesh
Anywhere everywhere! Anything anyhow! just dance!
Rajneesh
Children can be taught meditation more easily because they are not yet spoiled. When you have been spoiled the hard work is to help you to unlearn.
Rajneesh
Don't be angry at life. It is not life that is frustrating you, it is you who are not listening to life.
Rajneesh
