What I am teaching is religiousness, a quality. Religion is a dead dogma, fixed principles, frozen fossils. What I am teaching to you is a living, flowing religiousness - an experience like love.

More quotes by Rajneesh
Don't be bothered by perfection. Replace the word 'Perfection' by 'Totality. Totality will give you a different dimension.
Rajneesh
This watchfulness, this witnessing is the ultimate secret of creating a religious life, of creating a life of transcendence, a life of spirituality, of enlightenment, of buddhahood.
Rajneesh
Questioners sooner or later end up in a library... And answers are dangerous they kill your wonder.
Rajneesh
I resolve never to make any resolutions because all resolutions are restrictions for the future. All resolutions are imprisonments.
Rajneesh
The innocence of children is their wisdom, the simplicity of children is their egolessness. The freshness of the child is the freshness of your consciousness, which never becomes old, which always remains young.
Rajneesh
Never obey anyone's command unless it is coming from within you also.
Rajneesh
Remember, if you have not known sadness together with happiness you have not known anything yet. Then your happiness is superficial your sadness is also superficial. Then you have been living on the surface then you have known only the waves you have not known the depth of the ocean that you are.
Rajneesh
Meditation is just a courage to be silent and alone. Slowly slowly, you start feeling a new quality to yourself, a new aliveness, a new beauty, a new intelligence—which is not borrowed from anybody, which is growing within you. It has roots in your existence.
Rajneesh
Be a witness of sex too. Don't be the controller of it. Don't try to forcibly bring it under control, remain a witness of it too. Just as you are a witness of everything else, remain a witness of sex too.
Rajneesh
Zen is a totally different kind of religion. It brings humanness to religion. It is not bothered about anything superhuman its whole concern is how to make ordinary life a blessing.
Rajneesh
What is marriage now, or what has it ever been? - just a painful suffering, a long suffering, with false smiling faces. It has simply proved to be a misery. At the most it can be just a convenience.
Rajneesh
Your life sparks fires from within your innermost temple. No one can reach there but you, it is your inner sanctum. You are your own master there, only you can reach and ignite the fire.
Rajneesh
I would like the whole world to be full of feminine qualities. Then only can wars disappear.
Rajneesh
Whatsoever you hide goes on growing, and whatsoever you expose, if it is wrong it disappears, evaporates in the sun, and if it is right it is nourished.
Rajneesh
In pure awareness the mind cannot drag you down into the mud, into the gutter. In anger, in hatred, in jealousy, the mind is absolutely impotent in the face of awareness. And because the mind is absolutely impotent, your whole being is in a profound silence - the peace that passeth understanding.
Rajneesh
Love is a wine you have to taste it, you have to drink it, you have to become drunk with it, only then do you know what it is.
Rajneesh
When sex becomes conscious it is love, it is no longer lust. Love brings freedom, and lust simply creates prisons for you.
Rajneesh
Meditation cannot be taught, it can only be caught. I am meditation. If you are available you can catch it.
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.
Rajneesh
In fact everything can become a sort of meditation, because in everything there are two dimensions - just as there are in the first breath: the outer and the inner.
Rajneesh
