A really religious person has no theology. Yes, he has the experience, he has the truth, he has that luminosity, but he has no theology.

More quotes by Rajneesh
First you have to do all that you can do, and then you have to learn non-doing. The doing of the non-doing is the greatest doing, and the effort of effortlessness is the greatest effort.
Rajneesh
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.
Rajneesh
You cannot force things to happen before their time. The Spring Will come and the flowers will blossom, but you cannot force the Spring. The Rain will come, the clouds will cover the sky, the whole thirst of the earth will be gone- but you cannot force it. And this is the beauty... that the more patient you are, the quicker is the coming of Spring.
Rajneesh
Time is a need of the miserable mind. Time is a creation of misery. If you are happy there is no time - time disappears.
Rajneesh
Meditation opens the doors of your inner treasures, what Jesus calls the kingdom of god. Meditation is only a key, and keys are always small things, but they can unlock immense treasures. Everybody is born as a prince or a princess, but gets lost in the blind crowd of beggars.
Rajneesh
Listening means forgetting yourself completely - only then can you listen.
Rajneesh
Drop the mind and the divine. God is not an object, it is a merger. The mind resists a merger, the mind is against surrender the mind is very cunning and calculating.
Rajneesh
Frustration is out of expectation expectation is our projection. All kinds of love frustrate unless love is based in meditation.
Rajneesh
When your consciousness becomes a still mirror, a still lake, a silent reservoir of energy, God is reflected in it.
Rajneesh
For a prayer oriented religion the concept of a personal God is needed - to relate to. For meditation-oriented religions God is a useless hypothesis it can be discarded easily into the dustbin. It is not needed.
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
Forget the dancer, the center of the ego. Become the dance. Then the dancer disappears and only the dance remains. Then the dancer is the dance. There is no dancer separate from dance, no dance separate from the dancer.
Rajneesh
Because of Christianity the West has missed many things, and one of them is meditation, the rarest flowering of a human being, because they have made it equivalent to contemplation. Contemplation is thinking. Meditation is no-thinking.
Rajneesh
Hence my insistence that music and meditation should go together. That adds a new dimension to both. Both are enriched by it.
Rajneesh
Intelligence is dangerous. Intelligence means you will start thinking on your own you will start looking around on your own. You will not believe in the scriptures you will believe only in your own experience.
Rajneesh
In rain during a dark night, enter that darkness.
Rajneesh
The world can come to a harmony if meditation is spread far and wide.
Rajneesh
People expect too much. People who expect heaven always fall into hell - that is the law. Expect heaven and hell is certain. Don't expect heaven and there will never be any hell.
Rajneesh
You cannot possess all and everything. Whatsoever you possess will not give you contentment. The mind, the ego, will always feel unfulfilled.
Rajneesh
And the miracle is: if you can go into your suffering as a meditation, watching, to the deepest roots of it, just through watching, it disappears. You don't have to do anything more than watching. If you have found the authentic cause by your watching, the suffering will disappear.
