More quotes by Rajneesh
You become so intense that you are not there, because if you are there then the intensity cannot be total then two are there. If you love and the lover is there, then love cannot be intense. Love so deeply, so totally, that the lover disappears. Then you are just an energy moving. Then you will know love, you will know life, you will know death.
Rajneesh
Choicelessness is the alchemy of transformation, of inner mutation. A new being is born who has nothing to do with the past, who is absolutely discontinuous with the past. He has no desire. And when there is no desire, for the first time you live
Rajneesh
For a prayer oriented religion the concept of a personal God is needed - to relate to. For meditation-oriented religions God is a useless hypothesis it can be discarded easily into the dustbin. It is not needed.
Rajneesh
Meditation has to become your heartbeat even when you are asleep the meditation continues like an undercurrent
Rajneesh
People can live tremendously rich, blissful, ecstatic lives. But the first thing is, we have to accept our responsibility.
Rajneesh
Meditation is not doing something. But you cannot take a jump immediately into non-doing. So I suggest that you make your doing total. Move into it so deeply, and so totally that suddenly the doing drops, and you alone are left, just existing.
Rajneesh
I resolve never to make any resolutions because all resolutions are restrictions for the future. All resolutions are imprisonments.
Rajneesh
If you have difficulties making a decision, choose the lesser of the two evils.
Rajneesh
Celebration is not because some desire is fulfilled - because no desire is ever fulfilled. Desire as such cannot be fulfilled. Desire is only a way to avoid the present moment. Desire creates the future and takes you far away. Desire is a drug it keeps you stoned, it does not allow you to see the reality - that which is herenow.
Rajneesh
Just being alive is such a gift, but nobody ever told you to be thankful to existence.
Rajneesh
Consciousness means choicelessness, and to be choiceless is to be free from all desire, is to be free from all projection, is to be free from all imagination, is to be free from future.
Rajneesh
Death is the most misunderstood phenomenon. People have thought of death as the end of life. That is the first, basic misunderstanding.
Rajneesh
True freedom is always spiritual. It has something to do with your innermost being, which cannot be chained, handcuffed, or put into a jail.
Rajneesh
Thinking goes on in your head. It is not really deep into the roots of your being it is not your totality.
Rajneesh
At its highest, love is a religious state of consciousness. I love you too, Buddha loves, Jesus loves, but their love demands nothing in return.
Rajneesh
Life is a continuity always and always. There is no final destination it is going towards. Just the pilgrimage, just the journey in itself is life, not reaching to some point, no goal - just dancing and being in pilgrimage, moving joyously, without bothering about any destination.
Rajneesh
Remember the emphasis on the heart. the mind lives in doubt and the heart lives in trust. When you trust, suddenly you become centered.
Rajneesh
Become more and more innocent, less knowledgeable and more childlike. Take life as fun - because that's precisely what it is!
Rajneesh
In the East all the religions preach egolessness. So in the East everybody is against the ego from the very beginning. Because of this anti attitude, ego never becomes strong, never comes to a point of integration from where it can be thrown. It is never ripe. So in the East it is very difficult to dissolve the ego, almost impossible.
Rajneesh
You are not feeling empty because you don't have much money. You are feeling empty because you have not yet encountered your real self, you have not come to your authentic individuality.
Rajneesh
