More quotes by Rajneesh
Meditation simply means a state of no-thought, awareness without the process of thought, just pure, mirror-like awareness, with no thoughts passing in the mind.
Rajneesh
Boredom and restlessness are deeply related. Whenever you feel boredom, then you feel restlessness. Restlessness is a by-product of boredom.
Rajneesh
Each individual is unique in ordinary life. The uniqueness becomes even more sharp and clear, crystal clear, when the person becomes enlightened - because only then his pure genius, his pure individuality, uncontaminated, unpolluted, is revealed.
Rajneesh
So awareness and enjoying this life can grow together simultaneously. And this is my vision of the whole man.
Rajneesh
Real creativity comes only out of silence.
Rajneesh
Illusions are bound to be shattered
Rajneesh
Misery nourishes your ego - that's why you see so many miserable people in the world. The basic, central point is the ego.
Rajneesh
The parents, the society, the state, the church, the educational system, they all depend on lies. As the child is born they start trapping it into lies. And the child is helpless. He cannot escape his parents, he is utterly dependent. You can exploit his dependence...and it has been exploited down the ages.
Rajneesh
Meditation cannot be taught, it can only be caught. I am meditation. If you are available you can catch it.
Rajneesh
Once you have started seeing the beauty of life, ugliness starts disappearing. If you start looking at life with joy, sadness starts disappearing. You cannot have heaven and hell together, you can have only one. It is your choice.
Rajneesh
Truth is not to be found outside. No teacher, no scripture can give it to you. It is inside you and if you wish to attain it, seek your own company. Be with yourself.
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
The whole zen attitude is to bring to your notice the fact that there is no effort to be made. The zen attitude is that of effortlessness.
Rajneesh
You ask me, Will you say something more about relaxation? I am aware of a tension deep in the core of me and suspect that I have probably never been totally relaxed.
Rajneesh
The inner emptiness is the door to God.
Rajneesh
And remember one fundamental law of life. If they are hostile, they have hate towards us, sooner or later they are going to fall into my trap, because hate can turn into love very easily, just as love can become hate very easily.
Rajneesh
If you become a little alert you will find love, light, laughter, everywhere.
Rajneesh
This is something basic to be understood - the ego must come to a peak, it must be strong, it must have attained an integrity - only then can you dissolve it. A weak ego cannot be dissolved. And this becomes a problem.
Rajneesh
Just think: you cannot find a single misery for which you are not responsible. It may be jealousy, it may be anger, it may be greed - but something in you must be the reason that is creating the misery.
Rajneesh
Religion can be condensed in a single phrase: total freedom to be oneself.
Rajneesh
