More quotes by Rajneesh
Unless you drop your personality you will not be able to find your individuality. Individuality is given by existence personality is imposed by the society.
Rajneesh
The authentic pagan has no need of religion because, whatever religion can provide, he already has it.
Rajneesh
The authentic religion teaches you to discover your immortality, to discover the god within you.
Rajneesh
Whatever you choose you will repent because the other will remain and haunt you. If one needs absolute freedom then choiceless awareness is the only thing.
Rajneesh
Each moment brings new surprises to the one who has no expectations, who comes with an absolutely open mind. Then incredible things start happening. Even if you had wanted them you could not have expected them you could not have found yourself worthy enough to expect them.
Rajneesh
Your desires are immense, almost infinite. Because of your desires life becomes a competition, and wherever there is competition, there is anxiety and angst and at the end everybody is aware deep down there is death.
Rajneesh
Hidden behind man is God. Just give him a little way, a little passage, to come through you. That is creativity. Allowing God to happen is creativity. Creativity is a religious state.
Rajneesh
Zen is non-serious. Zen has a tremendous sense of humor. No other religion has evolved so much that it can have that sense of humor.
Rajneesh
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
Remember the word bodhichitta, because Atisha says the whole effort of religion, the whole science of religion, is nothing but an endeavor to create bodhichitta, buddha-consciousness: a mind which functions as a no-mind, a mind which dreams no more, thinks no more, a mind which is just awareness, pure awareness.
Rajneesh
If you wait for your natural soul mate to meet with you, it will be just like waiting for lightning with which to read your Bible. And you will not be able to read much either. For a moment it is there, and by the time you have opened the Bible it is gone.
Rajneesh
The beauty is in finding, not in what you find that is just an excuse.
Rajneesh
Sannyas is only a declaration. The work is meditation. In one single word, my religion is complete, and that is meditation.
Rajneesh
Remember, don't start trying to relax that is the most absurd thing in the world. And there are many stupid people writing books about relaxation. I have come across one book - the name of the book is YOU MUST RELAX! Now that very word 'must' is enough to keep you tense. Relaxation cannot be a must, it cannot be an effort.
Rajneesh
To me, man means awareness of death. I am not saying become afraid of death that is not awareness. Just be aware of the fact that death is coming nearer and nearer and you have to be prepared for it.
Rajneesh
Only an acceptance of both the flowers and the thorns can bring you peace. Peace, after all, is the fruit of total acceptance.
Rajneesh
Watch,witness,observe your thoughts-without any judgement,without any condemnation or evaluation.
Rajneesh
The whole play of existence is so beautiful that laughter can be the only response to it. Only laughter can be the real prayer, gratitude.
Rajneesh
Life begins where fear ends.
Rajneesh
The future is needed as a space to project your desires. To project, future is needed.
Rajneesh
