Quote

I am utterly against any kind of guilt. Remember it always: if you start feeling guilty about something around me, then you are doing it on your own, then you are still carrying the voices of your parents, the priests within you you have not yet heard me, you have not yet listened to me. I want you to be totally free of all guilt.

Image
But we are such deceivers that we will not look at ourselves in relationship, because there the real face can be seen. So we close our eyes to relationship, and we go on thinking that something is going to be seen inside. You cannot see anything inside.
Rajneesh
Image
And remember, that is the criterion. If a person can enjoy and celebrate his death, that shows he has lived rightly there is no other criterion. Your death will prove how you have lived.
Rajneesh
Image
Those otherworldly desires were just as foolish as the worldly desires.
Rajneesh
Image
It is my observation that all human hearts are the same and that their ultimate desire is also the same. This soul wants happiness, perfect and pure happiness, because only then will all desires end. As long as desire exists misery exists, because with desire there can be no peace.
Rajneesh
Image
This art of participating in happiness is one of the foundations if you want to be happy.
Rajneesh

Transcendence of sex is a totally different phenomenon from the suppression of it. But suppression can give you the feeling that you have transcended.
Rajneesh
Image
Zen says everything is divine so how can anything be special? All is special. Nothing is non-special so nothing can be special.
Rajneesh
Image
When I say be creative I don't mean that you should all go and become great painters and great poets. I simply mean let your life be a painting, let your life be a poem.
Rajneesh
Image
Freedom is the basic thing. Consciousness grows in freedom and starts dying, becomes paralyzed and crippled, when things are forced. And up to now, this has been done. This is the greatest crime that parents have always committed against children. They go on forcing the child.
Rajneesh
Image
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
Image
Every moment you are different because you are not-- and unless you are, the divine cannot happen to you. To whom can it happen? You are not there.
Rajneesh
Image
I want my people to laugh like a lion's roar. Then even laughter becomes a tremendous experience, because it is intelligence at its peak.
Rajneesh
Image
I don't teach vegetarianism it is a by-product of meditation. Wherever meditation has happened, people have become vegetarian, always, for thousands of years.
Rajneesh
Image
The whole of life has become an institution, a madhouse in which duties are to be fulfilled not love in which you have to behave, not be spontaneous in which a pattern has to be followed, not the overflow of life and energy. That's why the mind thinks and decides everything, because there is danger.
Rajneesh
Image
God is not repetitive His creativity is infinite.
Rajneesh
Image
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
Image
Be ordinary, but bring a quality of awareness to your ordinary life. Bring God to your ordinary life introduce God into your ordinary life. Sleep, eat, love, pray, meditate, but don’t think that you are making or doing something special—and then you will be special.
Rajneesh
Image
When all the faces have been rejected and emptiness is left, you have found the original face. Emptiness is the original face. Zero is the ultimate experience. Nothingness - or more accurately NO-THINGNESS - is your original face.
Rajneesh
Image
Choose one meditation and then put all your effort in it. That effort has to be very regular because will is created only out of regularity. It has to be very persistent and a continuity has to be maintained. Even to miss for one day is to destroy much - and at least one hour every day has to be given to it.
Rajneesh

What is envy? It is nothing but passive jealousy. Maybe jealousy is too strong a phenomenon envy is a little passive. The difference may be of degrees, but it is not of quality, it is only of quantity. Envy can become jealousy at any moment envy is just jealousy in progress. Mind has to drop all envies and jealousies.
