More quotes by Rajneesh
You will find a blissfulness which contains in it sadness also, because that sadness gives it depth. Watch Buddha's statue - blissful, but still sad. The very word sad gives you wrong connotations - that something is wrong. This is your interpretation. To me, life in its totality is good.
Rajneesh
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
Frustration is out of expectation expectation is our projection. All kinds of love frustrate unless love is based in meditation.
Rajneesh
Existence does not listen to your desires, and does not follow your desires, however beautiful and however pious. Existence goes on in its own way.
Rajneesh
Meditation is neither of the body nor of the mind, but belongs to the third within you—your being.
Rajneesh
Being is so significant that it is irreplaceable. You are just yourself. Do something that comes out of you - not to assert, but to express! Sing your song, dance your dance, rejoice in being whatever nature has chosen you to be.
Rajneesh
The world can come to a harmony if meditation is spread far and wide.
Rajneesh
Knowledge is not information, it's transformation.
Rajneesh
Jesus moved in a very poor world. People were seeking their own solutions. Many were helped - not that Jesus was helping - they were helped. And Jesus says again and again: It is your faith that has healed you. When you have faith, compassion can pour into you. When you have faith, you are open to compassion.
Rajneesh
So the first thing: become aware of death. Think about it, look at it, contemplate it. Do not be afraid, do not escape the fact. It is there and you cannot escape it! It has come into existence with you.
Rajneesh
Laughter is the very essence of religion. Seriousness is never religious, cannot be religious. Seriousness is of the ego, part of the very disease. Laughter is egolessness.
Rajneesh
Love respects the other. It is a give-and-take relationship. Love enjoys giving, and love enjoys taking. It is a sharing, it is a communication. Both are equal in love in a sexual relationship both are not equal. Love has a totally different beauty to it.
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
Meditation is the most significant because it opens the door for all other significant things: love, prayer, God, light, music, poetry.
Rajneesh
Freedom is a ladder: one side of the ladder reaches hell, the other side touches heaven. It is the same ladder the choice is yours.
Rajneesh
It is beautiful that there are three hundred religions in the world more are needed. ... Each person should have his own religion - there should be as many religions as there are people!
Rajneesh
My love is unconditional. Your action is irrelevant.
Rajneesh
It was Heraclitus' ideas that seized Nietzsche so totally that he became completely mad.
Rajneesh
The process of meditation does not take you to some new world it only introduces you to the world where you have been for lives upon lives. The process of meditation does not add anything to you it only takes away what is wrong, cuts it away, sheds it off.
Rajneesh
Who is a god? A god is one who has learned the secret of being happy with the whole universe, with every flower and with every river and with every rock and every star who has become one with this continuous eternal celebration who celebrates, who doesn't bother whose celebration this is. And wherever there is a celebration, he participates.
Rajneesh
