Osho Talks on Key Issues for The Future - Osho Discourse

No-Thought for the Day Sharing Sitemap

Enlightenment is nothing but your consciousness being concentrated on a single point — now and here.
- Osho
Be fully, wholly aware of yourself. Because without being totally aware, you will never know the beauty and the splendor of this existence that surrounds you.
- Osho
The still point… There is a point within you where nothing ever moves – no movement from or to, no stirring, no sound created by any instrument. Nobody is there, just stillness, but that stillness is the dance and that stillness is the music.
- Osho
When life is really harmonious lived kinds of dreams disappear. Your whole sleep becomes dreamless.
- Osho
Man has to create himself. He is not ready- made, he is no given. And the creation has to be a self- creation – nobody else can make you.
- Osho
Consciousness without thinking: That’s what awareness is.
- Osho
The real question is not whether life exists after death. The real question is whether you are alive before death.
- Osho
Be silent and you will understand not only about Zen, you will understand the very essence of existence itself.
- Osho
I want you to be in the very center of existence, of your being. That is the only way to understand this tremendous mystery that surrounds you.
- Osho
Take life easily, lovingly, playfully, non-seriously. Seriousness is a disease, the greatest disease of the soul and playfulness the greatest health.
- Osho
My enlightenment has freed me from everything, including enlightenment.
- Osho
Freedom is our most precious treasure. Don’t lose it for anything. . . .
- Osho
Ambition is insanity. Ambition shows that you are not at ease with yourself, that you are not at home.
- Osho
Only the individual can rise to the heights of consciousness and awareness. The more you belong to the crowd, the deeper you fall into darkness.
- Osho
These three things are to be taken note of: the lowest love is sex - it is physical - and the highest refinement of love is compassion. Sex is below love, compassion is above love; love is exactly in the middle
- Osho
Any religion, any ideology, that is based only on belief, or faith, is bound to cripple your intelligence.
- Osho
Meditation is something natural, something that is already hidden inside you and is trying to find its way to reach to the open sky, to the sun, to the air.
- Osho
Happiness is available to everybody —whosoever opens his heart, happiness is always available.
- Osho
Only a blind man can easily define what light is. When you do not know, you are bold. Ignorance is always bold; knowledge hesitates. And the more you know, the more you feel that the ground underneath is dissolving. The more you know, the more you feel how ignorant you are.
- Osho
The beauty of facing life unprepared is tremendous. Then life has a newness, a youth; then life has a flow and freshness. Then life has so many surprises. And when life has so many surprises boredom never settles in you.
- Osho
Just as water flows downwards towards the ocean, beauty, truth, love — all that is valuable in existence — flows towards a person who is nobody.
- Osho
Dancing is not just a movement. When a movement becomes ecstatic then it is dance. When the movement is so total that there is no ego, then it is a dance.
- Osho
Relationship is the need of those who cannot be alone. Two alone persons relate, communicate, commune, and yet they remain alone.
- Osho
Accept yourself as you are. And that is the most difficult thing in the world, because it goes against your training, education, your culture.
- Osho
This world is just a game. Winners lose and losers win the game is still the same. This life is just a play. Those who say dont know and those who know dont say.
- Osho
If you start listening to the body, listening to nature, listening to your inner being, you will be more and happier.
- Osho
A child needs immense privacy, as much as possible, a maximum of privacy, so that he can develop his individuality.
- Osho
Reaction is always unconscious; and response is always conscious.
- Osho
Life is freedom. It does not impose any meaning on you; it simply gives you an opportunity to create your own meaning. The meaning has to be created.
- Osho
Desire disappears as you become more and more aware. When awareness is one hundred percent, there is no desire at all.
- Osho
Don’t be angry at life. It is not life that is frustrating you, it is you who are not listening to life.
- Osho
The world is a garland of millions of flowers, but running through all those flowers is a thread that keeps it together: that thread is love.
- Osho
Be a lotus flower. Be in the water, and do not let the water touch you.
- Osho
Don’t be bothered by perfection. Replace the word ‘Perfection’ by ‘Totality'. Totality will give you a different dimension.
- Osho
Whenever you punish somebody you are punishing yourself. Whenever you torture somebody you are torturing yourself — because there is nobody else.
- Osho
Love is a sharing. But before you can share, you have to have it! Meditation should be the first thing. Meditation is the center, love is the circumference of it. Meditation is the flame, love is the radiation of it. Meditation is the flower, love is the fragrance of it.
- Osho
Something disappears when you become aware, and something appears. Death disappears, deathlessness appears. The ego disappears, egolessness appears.
- Osho
Destroying something, any idiot can do. Creating needs intelligence.
- Osho
If you cannot love yourself, you don’t know even the taste of love or what love means.
- Osho
Walk Without Feet, Fly Without Wings and Think Without Mind.
- Osho
To fight with the mind is to give it reality, to recognize its power. There is no need to fight. One has just to be a witness. Without any fight, just being a witness, mind disappears.
- Osho
Whatsoever you hide goes on growing, and whatsoever you expose, if it is wrong it disappears, evaporates in the sun, and if it is right it is nourished.
- Osho
To bring the beyond is creativity. To bring the beyond into the known is creativity. To help divine to be manifested in some form is creativity.
- Osho
To go beyond judgements of good and bad is the way of watchfulness. And it is through watchfulness that transformations happen.
- Osho
Once you know meditation, you don’t have to follow anybody. You have your own eyes open, and you have your light just ahead of you showing the path.
- Osho
Intelligence comes from meditation, intelligence comes from rebellion, intelligence does not come from memory.
- Osho
The one you are looking for is you.
- Osho
When you cheat somebody, you are losing something of your inner being… something which is tremendously valuable.
- Osho
Bliss needs to be shared; it exists only in sharing.
- Osho
Love is painful because it creates the way for bliss. Love is painful because it transforms, love is a mutation. Each transformation is going to be painful because the old has to be left for the new.
- Osho
It does not matter if you are a rose or a lotus or a marigold. What matters is that you are flowering.
- Osho
Eat, taste the food, and still remember that you are the watcher.
- Osho
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.
- Osho
All conditionings are based on belief. And my whole effort is that experience should be the only criterion not belief.
- Osho
Paradise is within you, in your state of no-mind. And hell is also within you, in your very mind. The choice is yours. You can move from the mind to no-mind; the bridge is witnessing.
- Osho
We are not interested in going to paradise; We are interested in making the paradise come here.
- Osho
I teach a new man, a new humanity, a new concept of being in the world.[....] only with the death of the old can the new be born. The cessation of the old is the beginning of the new. My message to humanity is a new man.
- Osho
This is the authentic trinity of a truly religious man: truth, beauty, and good. These three experiences happen when u enters into your own subjectivity.
- Osho
When it comes to deciding between your love and your truth, truth has to be the decisive factor.
- Osho
Understanding is only that which has been experienced by the person himself.
- Osho
Nobody is here to fulfill your dream. Everybody is here to fulfill his own destiny, his own reality.
- Osho
I have a deep reverence for everything that is alive, a reverence for life itself.
- Osho
That is the simple secret of happiness. Whatever you are doing, don’t let past move your mind; don’t let future disturb you. Because the past is no more, and the future is not yet. To live in the memories, to live in the imagination, is to live in the non-existential. And when you are living in the non-existential, you are missing that which is existential. Naturally you will be miserable, because you will miss your whole life.
- Osho
Doing brings ego. Ego is the shadow of action. And there is only one thing that is not-doing, and that is awareness, watchfulness.
- Osho
Old age is your own creation: it can be a misery, it can be a celebration; it can be simply a despair, and it can also be a dance. It all depends how deeply ready you are to accept existence, whatsoever it brings.
- Osho
Be realistic: Plan for a miracle.
- Osho
Life cannot be possessed. You cannot have it in your fist. If you want to have it, you have to keep your hands open.
- Osho
Truth is not something outside to be discovered, it is something inside to be realized.
- Osho
When mind knows, we call it knowledge.When heart knows, we call it love. And when being knows, we call it meditation.
- Osho
Real love makes you more of an individual. It does not efface your individuality, it gives you individuality. Real love is very respectful.
- Osho
To choose is to choose a prison; to choose is to choose a bondage. To choose is wrong, to be choiceless is to be right.
- Osho
Life begins where fear ends.
- Osho
I do not give you any discipline, any philosophy. I simply help you to bring out your own consciousness into a state of flowering.
- Osho
Whatsoever you possess will not give you contentment. The mind, the ego, will always feel unfulfilled.
- Osho
If whatsoever you have been living can be conveyed by words, that means you have not lived at all.
- Osho
All that is great is going to happen to you-- not by your effort, but by your relaxed openness, availability. Just keep your doors open.
- Osho
Sannyas is only a declaration. The work is meditation. In one single word, my religion is complete, and that is meditation.
- Osho
Wherever you are, reality is. You are part of reality and you exist only as an organic part to reality. You cannot go away. You cannot separate yourself.
- Osho
Humanity will never be religious unless all organized religions disappear and religion becomes an individual commitment towards existence.
- Osho
You are simply a witness, no judgment, no evaluation, but a pure silent witnessing like a mirror.
- Osho
The Zen saying is: Whenever such belly laughter happens – laughter like Bodhidharma’s – white lotuses start showering from the sky, from nowhere.
- Osho
The first thing that should be a foundation for your whole life is the art of meditation; anything else should come later on.
- Osho
A borrowed truth is the greatest lie in the world. Truth can only be true when it is based on your own experience, utterly your own experience.
- Osho
Celebration is the very nature of existence.
- Osho
Don't get tempted. Don't advise unless you really know. Don't guide.
- Osho
I don’t have a goal, because existence has no goal. It simply is, flowering, blossoming, dancing – but don’t ask why. Just an overflow of energy, for no reason at all.
- Osho
Be true to yourself, and don't look at what others are saying. This is the only way to reach to the Divine, because it is the only way to be natural.
- Osho
Love needs two things: it has to be rooted in freedom and it has to know the art of trust.
- Osho
Truth certainly liberates, but the truth has to be your own. Only then it liberates.
- Osho
Death is a quantum jump from one body, from one form into another form. But it is not an end to you.
- Osho
We have to make laughter, rejoicing, dancing, singing, part of a healthy being – just overflowing well-being.
- Osho
You should live in the world but remain untouched by it. You should remain in the world, but the world should not remain in you.
- Osho
I resolve never to make any resolutions because all resolutions are restrictions for the future. All resolutions are imprisonments.
- Osho
Meditation is an understanding that desires don't lead anywhere.
- Osho
Try to understand that existence consists of polar opposites. If you choose one side, your life will remain only half; and a half-life is a miserable life.
- Osho
To me, this is the only strength, the only power – that we can transform life, we can transform consciousness.
- Osho
Love is true only when it does not interfere in the privacy of the other person. It respects his individuality, his privacy.
- Osho
Sharing is the most precious religious experience. Sharing is good.
- Osho
To be responsible is to be free. To give the responsibility to somebody else is to be a prisoner.
- Osho
You are already a masterpiece. You cannot be improved. You have only to come to it, to know it, to realize it.
- Osho
It is not a question of money, power, and prestige; it is a question of what intrinsically you want to do. Do it, irrespective of the results, and your boredom will disappear.
- Osho
Detach yourself from all fixed ideas; they are the killers of all aliveness and innocence-which are musts for illumination.
- Osho
The ultimate state of love is freedom, absolute freedom, and any relationship that destroys freedom is not worthwhile.
- Osho
There is no other god than life. So allow yourself to be possessed by life in all its forms, colors, dimensions – the whole rainbow, all the notes of music.
- Osho
My effort is to make this whole earth a buddhafield.
- Osho
Don’t say this is good and that is bad. Drop all discrimination. Accept everything as it is.
- Osho
Love is a bird and it loves to be free. It needs the whole sky to grow.
- Osho
A truth cannot be read in scripture. truth has to be lived only in the innermost temple of your being.
- Osho
Your mind has been conditioned for centuries by people who have not understood your real needs.
- Osho
Anybody who says that love is a hindrance on the path of self-realization is not a sage.
- Osho
We come alone into this world, we go alone.
- Osho
Let your life be integrated at the centre of the celebration. Only choose that which is Celebrating, Joyous.
- Osho
Truth is not a theory. Truth is not a word. Truth is an experience – an experience of one’s own infinite depths. To become one with “that which is” is the truth.
- Osho
A man who lives life in its totality is a rainbow; he lives the whole spectrum of it.
- Osho
Meditation is not doing anything directly to your violence, not doing anything to your jealousy, to your hate. It is simply brining light into your house, and the darkness disappears.
- Osho
Your absence is the presence of godliness.
- Osho
Religion is the greatest creativity because it is an effort to give birth to yourself, to become a father and mother to yourself, to be born again.
- Osho
Meditation comes automatically to a joyous person. Meditation is very simple to a person who can celebrate, who can delight in life.
- Osho
Nobody can teach you love. Love you have to find yourself, within your being, by raising your consciousness to higer levels.
- Osho
When you really laugh for those few moments you are in a deep meditative state. Thinking stops. It is impossible to laugh and think together.
- Osho
The moment you accept yourself, you become beautiful.
- Osho
The sannyasin knows what it means to be an emperor, because he simply gives; he enjoys giving, he loves sharing. And the miracle of life is: the more you give the more you have.
- Osho
Accept yourself as you are. And that is the most difficult thing in the world, because it goes against your training, your education, your culture. From the very beginning you have been told how you should be. Nobody has ever told you that you are good as you are.
- Osho
Drop the idea of becoming someone, because you are already a masterpiece. You cannot be improved. You have only to come to it, to know it, to realize it.
- Osho
You will come closer and closer to perfection, but you will never be perfect. Perfection is not the way of existence. Growth is the way.
- Osho
Truth can only arise within you. Nobody else gives it to you and with truth comes beauty, followed by good.
- Osho
Dance as if this is the last dance. Dance with abandon, holding nothing back. That will bring transformation to your being, and a possibility of transformation for other people too.
- Osho
There has never been a person like you before, there is nobody else like you right now in the whole world, and there will never be anybody like you.
- Osho
Don't ask, Don't knock, Don't demand. Just Relax. if you relax, it comes. if you relax, it is there. if you relax, you start vibrating with it.
- Osho
There is no need of any competition with anybody. You are yourself, and as you are, you are perfectly good. Accept yourself. This is the way existence wants you to be.
- Osho
When your ego is no more, only then will you know who you are.
- Osho
Once you know yourself, there is no death. Death was only in your ignorance.
- Osho
Love means the art of being with others. Meditation means the art of being with yourself. Both are two aspects of the same coin.
- Osho
Your trust in the total opens all your sensitivities to their extreme. This whole existence becomes a sheer dance, a sheer celebration.
- Osho
My function here is to destroy all hypocrisy in you.
- Osho
First face your own problem an counter then first try to transform your being, only a transformed person can process of transformation in trigger others.
- Osho
The truth is showering on you in each breath, in each beat of your heart. Except truth, there is nothing else.
- Osho
Remember one thing: that you should not leave this earth unless you have made it a little more beautiful, a little lovelier, a little more loving.
- Osho
Easy is right. Begin right and you are easy. . . . Easy is right means natural is right, effortlessness is right, egolessness is right.
- Osho
Be like an alone peak high in the sky. Why should you hanker to belong? You are not a thing! Things belong!
- Osho
The more empty you become, the more you will be able to receive my vibrations, my heartbeat, my song, the more you will be able to dance in tune with me—and that is the only right way to spread the message. Because the message is not of language; the message is of being, of experience.
- Osho
Meditation can bring the only revolution. There is all other revolution have failed.
- Osho
My teaching is very simple: meditation is the key, becoming totally aware is the result. Experiencing oneness with the whole is the reward.
- Osho
I’ll never make any resolutions. Drop all resolutions! Let life be a natural spontaneity. The only golden rule is that there are no golden rules.
- Osho
Continuously clean your mind of beliefs, concepts, theories, ideas, ideologies, philosophies, doctrines, scriptures… Then the reality will be revealed to you.
- Osho
Once I was on a journey and someone asked me which word in a man’s vocabulary was the most valuable. My reply was, Love.
- Osho
Never belong to a crowd; never belong to a nation; never belong to a religion; never belong to a race. Belong to the whole existence.
- Osho
Possessiveness destroys love. And they should not be possessed, because that again destroys your love.
- Osho
The greatest art is to attain a balance between all opposites,a balance betwn all polarities.Imbalance is the disease and balance is health.
- Osho
You can go on changing the outer for lives and you will never be satisfied. Unless the inner changes, the outer can never be perfect.
- Osho
Truth is subjectivity, it is your innermost core. Only you, and only you, can penetrate it; nobody else can go with you. The path has to be travelled in tremendous aloneness. And a Master knows it — that he is pushing you in a journey where you will be left alone.
- Osho
Your marriage is a subtle politics of domination. Your fatherhood, motherhood, is a subtle politics.
- Osho
Love never should be forced, love never should be an attempt. It should not be in the mind at all - If it happens, then it is beautiful.
- Osho
Nobody is responsible except you. Nobody can make you angry, and nobody can make you happy.
- Osho
The ocean is not far away. But your ego is a frozen block - it needs melting. Love melts it, fear makes it more frozen, trust melts it. All that the people who are trying to find themselves have to do, is remain melted and allow the river to move on its own. You should not be the guide. The river needs no guide. Its very nature is to reach to the ocean. It is not an effort, it is its intrinsic quality.
- Osho
Love is not manageable, it is simply something that happens, and the moment you try to manage it everything misfire.
- Osho
Love cannot be taught, it can only be caught.
- Osho
Unless you love yourself, you can’t love anybody. Be selfish.
- Osho
Unless you find your spontaneity, unless you find your element, you cannot be happy. And if you cannot be happy, you cannot be meditative.
- Osho
The whole of life has to be your Temple; Work has to be your worship, Love has to be your prayer. This very body the Buddha, This very earth the Lotus Paradise.
- Osho
That is my whole teaching: just to be natural. Nature is Dharma, nature is Tao, and nature is Zen. And the moment you are natural, flowers will shower over you.
- Osho
Life is a musical instrument, and awareness is its greatest music.
- Osho
I am here to seduce you into a love of life; to help you to become a little more poetic; to help you die to the mundane and to the ordinary so that the extraordinary explodes in your life.
- Osho
Witness is the highest growth of consciousness. There is nothing beyond it. To remain a witness, awake or asleep, is the whole process of meditation.
- Osho
Witnessing is a happening, a by-product--a by-product of being total in any moment, in any situation, in any experience. Totality is the key.
- Osho
A New Man who will not hate life, as in the past it has done; a new man who will love life; a new man who will not be negative in any way, but will be affirmative; a new man who will not desire life after death, but will live moment to moment in sheer joy—who will think of this life as a gift and not as a punishment; who will not be antagonistic to the body, who will respect the body as the temple of the soul; who will love, and who will not be afraid of love; who will move in all kinds of relationships and yet be able to remain himself.
- Osho
You have to relax, you have to stop judging.
- Osho
Only a love free from attachment brings health and wholeness.
- Osho
I am not a messiah, and I am not a missionary. And I am not here to establish a church or to give a doctrine to the world, a new religion, no. My effort is totally different: a new consciousness not a new religion, a new consciousness not a new doctrine. Enough of doctrines and enough of religions! Man needs a new consciousness. And the only way to bring consciousness is to go on hammering from all the sides so that slowly slowly chunks of your mind go on dropping. The statue of a buddha is hidden in you. Right now you are a rock. If I go on hammering, cutting chunks out of you, slowly slowly the buddha will emerge. It takes time.
- Osho
Truth is a search, not a faith. It is an inquiry, not a belief. It is a question, a quest.
- Osho
First be a disciple; don't try to be a master. Mastership will come.
- Osho
Don’t go on with borrowed knowledge. Otherwise you will forget that you are ignorant, and you will remain ignorant.
- Osho
I am deliberately inconsistent, contradictory, so that you cannot make any body of knowledge out of me. So if one day you start gathering something, another day I take it away. I don't allow you to gather anything. Sooner or later, you are bound to be awakened to the fact that something totally different is transpiring here. It is not that I am giving you some dogma to be believed in, some philosophy to be lived by, no, not at all. I am utterly destructive, I am taking everything away from you.
- Osho
I have no wish to placate you with false, hollow and worthless words exhorting you to love mankind. The so-called religions have said these things to you for generations. I am here to urge you to love real men, to love your fellow beings - not mankind but the men who live and work around you. Humanity is just a word; mankind is just a label. You cannot find humanity or mankind anywhere. And so humanity is easy to love because the only thing you have to do is mouth a few platitudes.
- Osho
Consciousness is never judgmental. Consciousness is only a mirror.
- Osho
Love brings freedom. Loyalty brings slavery.
- Osho
I don’t want followers, obedient people. I want intelligent friends, fellow travelers.
- Osho
Remember, meditation is not something that is done by the mind, it is the absence of the mind. When the mind stops, meditation happens. It is not something out of the mind, it is something beyond the mind.
- Osho
Each moment is an end unto itself. Enjoy It., die into it, disappear into it, and then something miraculous happens: great eternal life descends in you.
- Osho
A man is successful if he follows his own natural way and lives it as totally and intensely as possible.
- Osho
Nobody else is responsible - only you and you alone. If you suffer it is because of you, if you feel blissful it is because of you. You are your hell and your heaven too.
- Osho
When it comes to deciding between your love and your truth, truth has to be the decisive factor.
- Osho
This I call true religion – playfulness, lovingness, cheerfulness.
- Osho
Avoid rationalizing your own errors and mistakes. Because if you rationalize, you protect them. Then they will be repeated.
- Osho
Take it easy, and remember Easy is Right.
- Osho
My word for prayer is love. Forget the word prayer, replace it with love. Love is not for some invisible God. Love is for the visible -- human beings, animals, trees, oceans, mountains. Spread your wings of love as far and wide as you can.
- Osho
Discover yourself, otherwise you have to depend on other people’s opinions who don’t know themselves.
- Osho
Life is a mystery, and there is nothing to explain everything is just open, it is in front of you. Encounter it! Meet it! Be courageous!
- Osho
Only a mediator knows a love that is not biological, that comes as a spiritual abundance, with a great urge to share.
- Osho
Drop comparing--and jealousy disappears, meanness disappears, phoniness disappears. But you can drop it only if you start growing your inner treasures.
- Osho
The moment you see that whatsoever you are in your own creation, you are freed from all outer causes and circumstances.
- Osho
They say: Think twice before you jump. I say: Jump first and then think as much as you want!
- Osho
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.
- Osho
Withdraw your awareness from everywhere and just let it rest within yourself, and you have arrived home.
- Osho
I don’t give u any discipline, any morality. I simple give u a clarity of vision. Out of that clarity whatsoever comes is good, is divine, and is moral.
- Osho
When there is no desire there is no past, no future. When there is no desire you are utterly contented here now. And to be contented here now is joy.
- Osho
Sex is the seed, love is the flower, compassion is the fragrance.
- Osho
Drop the idea of becoming someone, because you are already a masterpiece. You cannot be improved. You have only to come to it, to know it, to realize it.
- Osho
Only a mediator knows what life is, because he has reached the very source of eternity.
- Osho
My whole love and respect is for the person who accepts himself totally, as he is. He has courage. He has courage to face the whole pressure of the society which is bent upon splitting him into divisions – into good and bad, into saint and sinner. He is really a brave, courageous being who stands against the whole history of man, of morality, and declares to the skies his reality, whatever it is.
- Osho
Wherever you feel death, feel it. Don’t escape. Death is beautiful; death is the greatest mystery, more mysterious than life.
- Osho
Religion is nothing but a science to attain wisdom, understanding, to know what life is, and to live it in utter celebration.
- Osho
Always off with the river of life. Never try to go against the current, and never try to go faster than the river. Just move in absolute relaxation.
- Osho
My Message is very Simple. Live life as dangerously as possible. Live life totally, intensely, passionately, because except for life there is no other God.
- Osho
Whenever you act according to your own light, there is immense fulfilment, and deep rejoicing.
- Osho
So the second thing to remember is never to demand perfection. You have no right to demand anything from anybody. If somebody loves you, be thankful, but don’t demand anything—because the other has no obligation to love you.
- Osho
Remember it is not only you who are seeking truth – truth is also seeking you.
- Osho
To be a happy person, one has to drop all comparison. Drop all these stupid ideas of being superior and inferior. You are neither superior nor inferior. You are simply yourself! There exists no one like you, no one with whom you can be compared. Then, suddenly, you are at home.
- Osho
Please watch how you are clinging to your sorrow, your misery. Drop it, let go of it! And your life will have a great sweetness.
- Osho
Whatever you are doing, don’t let past move your mind; don’t let future disturb you. Because the past is no more, and the future is not yet.
- Osho
Mind: A beautiful servant, a dangerous master.
- Osho
Language is for non-lovers, those who are not in love. For lover, silence is enough language. without saying anything, they go on speaking.
- Osho
Religion has nothing to do with churches and temples and rituals: religion is born only when somebody pulsates with love.
- Osho
If you live with alertness, you live rightly. If you live in imitation, you live wrongly. To me there is only one sin: And that is not to be yourself. And to me there is only one virtue: And that is to know yourself.
- Osho
Mind is something unnatural; it never becomes your natural state. But meditation is a natural state — which we have lost.
- Osho
Truth is not somewhere in the future. It is not goal but the source. You are coming from truth. Of you can find the source again you will know what truth in.
- Osho
When you live at the optimum, then you know what life is. And then you know the celebration of it and the benediction of it.
- Osho
Nobody can say anything about you. Whatsoever people say is about themselves. But you become very shaky, because you are still clinging to a false center. That false center depends on others, so you are always looking to what people are saying about you.
- Osho
The existence loves you, otherwise you would not be here. Relax into your being, you are cherished by the whole.
- Osho
Friendship is the purest love. It is the highest form of Love where nothing is asked for, no condition, where one simply enjoys giving.

I want to emphasize the point that if a man can have ninety years of physical age and thirteen years of mental age, the vice versa is also possible, and should be made possible. A thirteen-years-old boy can have the mind and mental age of a ninety years old man. And that will be the day of rejoicing, when your mental age is ahead of your physical age. That is the beginning of a superman, the beginning of the new man, a new humanity.
- Osho

- Osho
My whole effort is somehow to convince you - not with my words but with my silence and presence, with my love and with my joy - that you are at the very center of the universe, every one of you - because there is only one center. Only on the periphery are we separate; at the center we are one.

- Osho
Never belong to a crowd; never belong to a nation; never belong to a religion; never belong to a race. Belong to the whole existence. Why limit yourself to small things? When the whole is available, only stupid people will cling to small things. Be oceanic.

- Osho
To me, this is religion - enjoying the air, enjoying the sea, enjoying the sand, enjoying the sun—because there is no other god than existence itself. Zorba the Buddha, on the one hand, is the end of the old man—his religions, his politics, his nations, his racial discriminations, and all kinds of stupidities. On the other hand, zorba the Buddha is the beginning of a new man—a man totally free to be himself, allowing his nature to blossom. There is no conflict Zorba and Buddha. The conflict been created by the so-called religions.

Contentment is a quality of your centre; it is not found on the circumference. Fulfillment is when you have arrived at your real, authentic being.
- Osho
A really mature person cannot be serious, there is nothing to be serious about. The whole of life is fun, it is a play, a play of consciousness. And that's what meditation reveals to you - that the whole of life is a beautiful play of energy. The same energy is in the trees, in the stars, in the rivers, in the mountains, in you, in animals. It is the same energy dancing in different forms. We in the East have called it 'leela'. Leela means god's play.

- Osho
My meditation is a method of being aware — of whatever you are doing, thinking, feeling.

I have called the New Man ZORBA THE BUDDHA. Zorba represents the materialist, objective approach. Buddha represents the subjective, spiritual approach. Divided, both are poor.

The ego is just a useful fiction. Use it, but don't be deceived by it.
- Osho
No-mind is not against mind: no-mind is beyond mind.
- Osho
Fame is foolish, it is pointless, meaningless. Even if the whole world knows you, how does it make you richer? How does it make your life more blissful? How does it help you to be more understanding, to be more aware? To be more alert, to be more alive?
- Osho
I say to you: light the lamp of independent thinking. Don’t become a slave to anyone by accepting his thoughts. Truth belongs to those who are their own master.

Start enjoying that which you are, and then this very ordinary life suddenly becomes extraordinary. Then these ordinary days have such tremendous poetry.
- Osho
Listen to your being. It is continuously giving you hints; it is a still, small voice. It does not shout at you, that is true. And if you are a little silent you will start feeling your way. Be the person you are. Never try to be another, and you will become mature. Maturity is accepting the responsibility of being oneself, whatsoever the cost. Risking all to be oneself, that’s what maturity is all about.
- Osho
Creativity is the greatest rebellion in existence.

There is no greater ecstasy than to know who you are.

Only people suffering from inferiority complex want to impress others. A really superior person never compares himself with anybody else.

A single insight into yourself is more valuable than all your scriptures. A single glimpse of your consciousness and you has entered the real temple.
- Osho
So when I say, Spread the word, I mean whatever I have been telling you, go on spreading in as many ways as possible. Use all the news media, use everything that technology has provided, so that the word reaches to every nook and corner of the earth. And remember, it is far more powerful than any nuclear weapons because nuclear weapons can only bring death -- that is not power. But the word which has come from an enlightened consciousness can bring new life to you; it can give you rebirth, resurrection -- that is power.
- Osho
Insecurity is beautiful. And the day you know insecurity is beautiful, you have know the wisdom if insecurity.
- Osho
My perception of sannyas is to be just yourself. If I say any attribute, I am imposing that attribute on my sannyasins. My sannyas is absolute freedom. With freedom of course a great responsibility comes, but that is not my business.
- Osho
When you are utterly present in this moment, when you don't have any past and don't have any future ... when this cuckoo calling, this train passing, this dog barking, is all ... when THIS is all and there is no that, when the word 'here' is your whole reality and there is no 'there', when now contains all time and there is no then ... then you are in the state of samasati.

Happiness is not conditional; nothing is needed to be happy. Only to be alive is needed — and that you are, you already are.
- Osho
If you love a person, you accept the total person. With all the defects. Because those defects are a part of the person. Never try to change a person you love, because the very effort to change says that you love half, and the other half of the person is not accepted. When you love, you simply love.
- Osho
If you are really in love, you are no more the same as your were before. Something has love. You are no more the same as you were before. Something has disappeared; you are reborn. Love is a rebirth.

- Osho
The moment you experience your own being, you have experienced the being of this whole universe because your heartbeat is part of the heartbeat of the universe.

If you enter heaven because other forced you to act according to certain precepts, certain commandments, you will regret even in heaven.

The freedom from something is not true freedom. The freedom to do anything you want to do is also not the freedom I am talking about. My vision of freedom is to be yourself.
- Osho
A real religious man is one who has no past, who has no autobiography, who is continuously new, each moment slipping with GOD. He does not bother – what has happened, has happened – finished! Put a full stop it, and never look back. Go on...he is always calling you ahead, and ahead. He is always persuading you to move into new territories of being: from lust to love, from love to prayer - and there are higher realms than prayer. And he is constantly on the move. If you follow him, the only way is to be constantly on the move. Be a river.
- Osho
Giving love is the real beautiful experience, because then you are an emperor. Getting love is a very small experience. It is the experience of beggar.

- Osho
The lover is an emperor; the creator is an emperor – without invading the whole world. He has invaded the whole universe out of sheer loving creativity.
- Osho
To be a sannyasin means you will be allowing freedom to the children, you will not impose anything on them, you will not impose your ideas; you will NOT like them to become imitators. Sannyas is just symbolic of a great freedom!

I am a natural person. I have no charisma, and I don’t believe in charisma. I don’t believe in methods - even if I use them, I don’t believe in them. I am a natural person, very ordinary. I can be lost in a crowd and you will not be able to find me. I don’t lead you, I accompany you.
- Osho
Love equalizes people. You give because you love, you give because you respect. You give and allow the man to feel, to be honored, that is true giving.

- Osho
We are bringing a new approach in religion. You do not go away from the world, but rather go deeper into it and change it. This is more courageous.
- Osho
I am not anti-life as other religions are. I am absolutely for life, and life in its essence means love.

When you love, love as if the person is a god, not less than that. Never love a woman as a woman and never love a man as a man.

Celebration is my attitude, unconditional to what life brings.

Life is an infinite mystery, therefore those who are filled with knowledge are deprived of life.
- Osho
Presence of mind means to be in the present, to be spontaneous, to be available to whatsoever is happening right now--to be available to here and now.
- Osho
Remain alert about your blindness, about your fear, about your ignorance, and just your alertness will dispel the whole darkness of blindness, of fear, of ignorance.
- Osho
Whatsoever you are doing, all doing has to become peripheral and a constant search for truth and a constant thirst for truth have to become your very center.
- Osho
Only those who are ready to become nobodies are able to love.
- Osho
If you can fine our original man, you have found everything that this existence contains—the entire splendor, all the glory, all the ceremony, all the joy.
- Osho
No relationship can truly grow if you go on holding back. If you remain clever and go on safeguarding and protecting yourself, only personalities meet, and the essential centers remain alone. Then only your mask is related, not you. Whenever such a thing happens, there are four persons in the relationship, not two. Two false persons go on meeting, and the two real persons remain worlds apart.
- Osho
Meditation has happen first, then character comes as a shadow to it. And if meditation does not happen, then your character is just a hypocrisy.
- Osho
Love knows how to forgive. Love cannot hurt and cannot be violent.
- Osho
Never belong to a crowd; Never belong to a nation; Never belong to a religion; Never belong to a race. Belong to the whole existence. Why limit yourself to small things? When the whole is available.
- Osho
Your heaven and your happiness is always somewhere else; it is never where you are. Real happiness is always HERE, it is always NOW.
- Osho
My whole effort is to make your morality spontaneous. You should be conscious and alert, and respond to every situation with absolute consciousness. Then whatever you do is right. It is not a question of actions being right or wrong, it is a question of consciousness - whether you are doing it consciously or unconsciously like a robot.
- Osho
Mind, and mind’s hold on you, is the imprisonment. Get rid of the mind.
- Osho
Love in its purest form is a sharing of joy. It asks nothing in return, it expects nothing. Love is a spiritual phenomenon; lust is physical. Ego is psychological; love is spiritual.
- Osho
I am not a teacher, and this is not a place where knowledge is important. I am just a presence to inspire in you that which is dormant, to allow you to recognize yourself.
- Osho
It is better to be ignorant; at least the ignorance is yours. It is authentic, it is real, sincere and honest!
- Osho
I love life. That’s why I give teachings of celebration, celebrate everything. From body to soul, physical to spiritual, sex to superconsciousness, everything is divine for me.
- Osho
Love the person, but give the person total freedom. Love the person, but from the very beginning make it clear that you are not selling your freedom.
- Osho
Aloneness is a flower, a lotus blooming in your heart. Aloneness is positive, aloneness is health.
- Osho
My effort is to continuously emphasize that meditation is nothing but watching the mind, understanding the mind, seeing all its subtle and cunning ways.
- Osho
You don’t have any problems. Only this much has to be understood. This very moment you can drop all problems because they are your creations.
- Osho
A certain darkness is needed to see the stars.
- Osho
Up to now, nobody has said that there is anything beyond enlightenment. That's why I say, I am a milestone. With me, a new chapter in the history of consciousness begins. Enlightenment will be now the beginning, not the end. Beginning of a non-ending process in all dimensions of richness.
- Osho
To accept the challenge of the unknown in spite of all fears, is courage. The fears are there, but if you go on accepting the challenge again and again, slowly slowly those fears disappear.
- Osho
I would hate to be respected by the present humanity -it does not have that intelligence, nor has it that heart, nor has it that being.
- Osho
The word devil is very beautiful, if you read it backwards it becomes lived. That which is lived becomes divine and that which is not lived becomes the devil.
- Osho
The new man will live out of meditation, out of consciousness, out of his own inner light. The new man will be an individual.
- Osho
Life exists without rules; games cannot exist without rules. Only false religion has rules, because false religion is a game.
- Osho
God happens only when you have moved out of the way and left yourself totally empty, spacious. It is a very strange phenomenon: The guest only comes inside the house when the host disappears.
- Osho
Only lovers know the unity, thinkers cannot know unity. And in the unity of the whole one finds love and one finds wisdom.
- Osho
One who thinks in terms of superiority will always remain inferior because these are two aspects of the same coin.
- Osho
Accept the wholeness of life; because to me the acceptance of the whole is the only holy experience in the world.
- Osho
If you want life, then for life there is no fixed road. Life is here and now, multi-dimensional, spreading in every direction.
- Osho
Drop comparing and life is really beautiful. Drop comparing and you can enjoy life to the full.
- Osho
To see the beauty of the flower you need silence, not analysis; beauty can never be understood through analysis.
- Osho
Prayer is gratitude. Prayer is thankfulness.
- Osho
Falling in love you remain a child; rising in love you mature. By and by love becomes not a relationship, it becomes a state of your being. Not that you are in love – now you are love.
- Osho
My definition of meditation is that it is simply an effort to jump into the unconscious.
- Osho
If your heart says to take the jump, then take the jump, then risk, then be adventurous.
- Osho
Always remember that to be happy is to be religious; to be happy is to be virtuous; to be celebrating is to be prayerful.
- Osho
Drop envy and jealousy, otherwise there is no possibility — because love cannot exist where envy and jealousies exist.
- Osho
If you can trust nature, by and by you become quiet, silent, happy, joyful, celebrating—because nature is celebrating. Nature is a celebration.
- Osho
A real prayer arises out of gratitude, never out of fear and greed. A real prayer arises out of love for truth.
- Osho
Reality has not to be invented, it has to be discovered. It is already there. Hence science discovers, and true religion also discovers.
- Osho
Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers.
- Osho
Whatsoever you do with awareness is right. Right and wrong is not a distinction between objects; right and wrong is distinction between consciousnesses.
- Osho
Intelligence is a natural phenomenon, every child is born intelligent.
- Osho
You become more divine as you become more creative. All the religions of the world have said God is the creator. I don’t know whether he is the creator or not, but one thing I know: the more creative you become, the more godly you become. When your creativity comes to a climax, when your whole life becomes creative, you live in God. So he must be the creator because people who have been creative have been closest to him. Love what you do. Be meditative while you are doing it - whatsoever it is.
- Osho
Love is true only when it is spontaneous, unplanned, unpracticed, uncultivated, un-thought.
- Osho
Find the light and it will show you the path. The path that is shown by your own light is the only path that is right.
- Osho
A truth cannot be read in a scripture, a truth has to be lived only in the innermost temple of your being.
- Osho
If you are clear and clean in the mind, you will be able to find solutions for every problem that arises in your life.
- Osho
It is always death that comes before your desires are fulfilled. Even if you live for a thousand years your desires are not going to be fulfilled.
- Osho
The moment you believe in someone, you lose intelligence. Belief is almost like poison to your intelligence.
- Osho
Life in itself has no meaning. Life is an opportunity to create meaning.
- Osho
The first: freedom. The second: uniqueness of individuality. The third: love. The fourth: meditation. The fifth: non-seriousness. The sixth: playfulness. The seventh: creativity. The eighth: sensitivity. The ninth: gratefulness. Tenth: a feeling of the mysterious. These ten non-commandments constitute my basic attitude towards reality, towards man's freedom from all kinds of spiritual slavery.
- Osho
If love can not keep you together, nothing else can keep you together. And if love cannot keep you together, than anything that can keep you together is dangerous.
- Osho
My whole effort is to liberate you from all that binds you. Only when you are liberated from all bindings will you have a tremendous beauty, a splendor.
- Osho
A woman is one of the most beautiful phenomena in the world; not to be compared with anything else. The woman is the masterpiece of god.
- Osho
If you remain always far, love will die. If you remain always near, love will die. Love can survive only in a continuous flowing relationship.
- Osho
Do not imitate anyone, do not follow anyone, otherwise you will be just a pseudo existence - and that is worse than suicide.
- Osho
Never ask, Who is my real friend? Ask, Am I a real friend to somebody? That is the right question. Always be concerned with yourself.
- Osho
I say to you: light the lamp of independent thinking. Don’t become a slave to anyone by accepting his thoughts. Truth belongs to those who are their own master.
- Osho
Ego is the greatest bondage, the only hell that I know of.
- Osho
Watch, witness. Your body is not you; your mind is not you. You are just a pure witness.
- Osho
The knowledgeable person lives with a question mark ‘?’ and the man of awe and wonder lives with an exclamation mark.
- Osho
Be Yourself - and only then can you be responsible and authentic and real. But ordinarily everyone is just secondhand and borrowed, and that makes everything ugly.
- Osho
To be frank with you - which usually I am not - I don't know who I am. Knowledge is not possible here where I am. Only the knower is left, the known has disappeared; only the container is left, the content is no more.
- Osho
One day you will disappear on a funeral pyre – just into nothingness, as smoke. Don’t get attached to anything.
- Osho
These are the only two real emotions and love. If you don’t love, you will be in fear. If you are in fear, you cannot love. If you love, fear is impossible.
- Osho
You be simply interested in your happiness, in your bless, and one day you will find godliness has entered in you. It is another name for ultimate bliss.
- Osho
Be Realistic: Plan for a Miracle.
- Osho
When you awaken in your deepest core of being, in the very center of your existence, then there is only silence, immense joy and celebration.
- Osho
The authentic religion teaches you to discover your immortality, to discover the god within you.
- Osho
The greatest fear in the world is the opinion of others, and the moment you are unafraid of the crowd, you are no longer a sheep, you become a lion. A great roar arises in your heart, the roar of freedom.
- Osho
I am not a messiah and I am not a prophet. I am only a friend, and a friend cannot do what you are asking me to do. What commandments can I give you? No, none. I cannot tell you what to do and what not to do.
- Osho
Enlightenment is the understanding that this is all, that this is perfect, that this is it. Enlightenment is not an achievement, it is an understanding that there is nothing to achieve, nowhere to go.
- Osho
Listen to your own heart; that is the only scripture I prescribe. Yes listen very attentively, very consciously, and you will never be wrong.
- Osho
Darkness is an absence of light. Ego is an absence of awareness.
- Osho
Truth can whisper its mysteries into your ears only when you are absolutely empty – emptiness is its mysteries into your ears only when you are absolutely empty – emptiness is purity.
- Osho
Hell is our creation, and we create hell by trying to do the impossible. Heaven is our nature, it is our spontaneity. It is where we always are.
- Osho
Life is not a tension anywhere except in the minds of humanity.Life is not a tension anywhere except in the minds of humanity.
- Osho
Where silence and awareness meet, mingle and become one, there is receptivity. Receptivity is the most important religious quality.
- Osho
If love is not conscious it remains lust, and lust can never have anything of prayer in it. Lust is unconscious, love is conscious.
- Osho
One need not go anywhere to be blissful. One can sit silently, be alone, and be blissful. Nothing else is needed just the pulsation of life is enough.
- Osho
Your real being only flowers with unconditional love. Ambition is against love. Anything that is against love is against you and your real life.
- Osho
Love is the ultimate, the end. You love for love’s own sake. It is not a means to anything else, it is its own end.
- Osho
The world of being is the only real world, the world of truth. And unless you have come to it, you on wandering in of rein lands. You can never come home.
- Osho
I want you to be independent and confident that you can attain these precious moments on your own.
- Osho
Real love is not an escape from loneliness, real love is an overflowing aloneness. One is so happy in being alone that one would like to share.
- Osho
I also teach you to love yourself first. It has nothing to do with ego. In fact, love is such a light that the darkness of the ego cannot exist in it at all. If you love others, if your love is focused on others, you will live in darkness. Turn your light toward yourself first, become a light unto yourself first. Let the light dispel your inner darkness, your inner weakness. Let love make you a tremendous power, a spiritual force.
- Osho
Once you let go nothing dies, only the ego. You remain forever and ever.
- Osho
Everything is beautiful if inside your heart there is awareness.
- Osho
People love freedom – but nobody wants responsibility. And they come together, they are inseparable.
- Osho
Awareness is the remedy for all ills, because awareness makes you healthy, whole, and of course holy.
- Osho
Practise love. Sitting alone in your room, be loving. Radiate love. Fill the whole room with your love energy.
- Osho
To love means to drop the ego, to drop yourself. Love means not to BE.
- Osho
Always choose the new, the less travelled by. Always choose the unknown, the less travelled by.
- Osho
There is no other miracle in the world than meditation. It is the only science of transforming you into a new man.
- Osho
There is a morality which is imposed from the outside which is never in tune with your heart. And there is a morality that comes from within you: it is always in tune with your heart and in tune with heart of the universe. That’s authentic morality.
- Osho
There is no other God than life. Be more alive, and you will be more divine. Be totally alive, and there is no death for you.
- Osho
Whenever you plan for love, whenever deliberateness enters into it it becomes phony and false.
- Osho
We have to change this world by celebrating, by dancing, by singing, by music, by meditation, by love, not by struggle.
- Osho
Sadness comes, joy comes, and everything passes by. What remains always is the witness. The witness is beyond all polarities.

You cannot destroy inner emptiness. It is your very being. You can cover it with things, but sooner or later you will have to encounter it. And it is better if you encounter it sooner.
- Osho
Watch the waves in the ocean. The higher the wave goes, the deeper is the wake that follows it. One moment you are the wave, another moment you are the hollow wake that follows. Enjoy both--dont get addicted to one. Dont say: I would always like to be on the peak. It is not possible. Simply see the fact: it is not possible. It has never happened and it will never happen. It is simply impossible--not in the nature of things. Then what to do? Enjoy the peak while it lasts and then enjoy the valley when it comes. What is wrong with the valley? What is wrong with being low? It is a relaxation. A peak is an excitement, and nobody can exist continuously in an excitement.
- Osho
A meditator needs no personal guidance. A meditator, on the contrary, needs only one thing: the atmosphere of meditation. He needs other meditators; he needs to be surrounded by other meditators.
- Osho
Prayer is meaningless if it is not out of alertness. And a man of alertness need not have any prayer – alertness is enough unto itself.
- Osho
Life is not given to you to murder, to destroy. Life has been given to you to create, and to rejoice, and to celebrate.
- Osho
Freedom is the ultimate value in the human soul.
- Osho
The society is ill; individuals are victims. Society needs therapy; individuals simply need love. The society is the patient and needs hospitalization.

Misery is symbolic of unawareness ; Bliss is symbolic of awareness.
- Osho
Be – don’t try to become.
- Osho

- Osho
The moment you accept youself you become beautiful.
- Osho
he person who enjoys his life has no desire to possess, because he knows the real things of life which are worth enjoying cannot be purchased.
- Osho
Loneliness is sad, aloneness is blissful.
- Osho
Mind cannot think without duality. Duality is the way of thinking. In silence, all dualities disappear. Oneness is the experience of silence.
- Osho
Respect your life. Out of that respect you will start respecting life in others.
- Osho
Tomorrow never comes, it is always today.
- Osho
Life is a mirror, it reflects your face. Be friendly, and all of life will reflect friendliness.
- Osho
Love is a state of being; it has nothing to do with anybody else. One is not in love, one is in love.
- Osho
To be here and now, you have to be in meditation, beyond mind.
- Osho
Love is not a higher quality than truth.
- Osho
Get out of your head and get into your heart. Think less, feel more.
- Osho
A serious person can never be innocent, and one who is innocent can never be serious.
- Osho
Respect your uniqueness, and drop comparison. Relax into your being.
- Osho
Love has to be discovered — it is already there. And how to discover it? The more you are, the less is the possibility to discover love; the less you are, the more is the possibility to discover it. When the river disappears into the ocean, it discovers the ocean — it becomes the ocean.
- Osho
Life is a mirror, it reflects your face. Be friendly, and all of life will reflect friendliness.
- Osho
Power over others is ugly. It is inhuman, because to have power over somebody means to reduce the person to a thing. He becomes your possession.
- Osho
If you live with love, through love, you will live a great life, because love makes everything great.
- Osho
Love makes you wise but never knew. Knowledge makes you cunning and clever but never loving.
- Osho
Love is life, love is god, love is sannyas.
- Osho
Mind is the illusion that which is not but appears, and appears so much that you think that you are the mind.
- Osho
The only way to be desire less is to be wakeful, watchful. Watchfulness creates a light in you, and in that light the darkness of desire cannot enter.
- Osho
Whatsoever you possess will not give you contentment. The mind, the ego, will always feel unfulfilled.
- Osho
The greatest poverty of all is the absence of love. The man who has not developed the capacity to love lives in a private hell of his own. A man who is filled with love is in heaven.
- Osho
Remember, all great values are killed the moment you cling to them. And no great value can be imitated.
- Osho
The only refuge is the perfection of wisdom, the perfection of meditation.
- Osho
Anything that gives you freedom is right, and anything that destroys your freedom is wrong.
- Osho
Every man has the potential to become enlightened. If he does not become, he is responsible — nobody else is responsible for it.
- Osho
When one wants to come to oneself no path is needed because one is already there. Just recognition – and the revolution happen! Just a remembrance!
- Osho
Love is happy when it is able to give something. The ego is happy when it is able to take something.
- Osho
Life exists without rules; games cannot exist without rules. The only false religion has rules because false religion is a game.
- Osho
Life is precious, and it is a gift from existence. We should not waste it.
- Osho
You are not filled with straw, you are filled with your own awareness. You are not filled with furniture, cars, houses, money, and other nonsense. You are just filled with your being, the sheer am-ness, the sheer existence.
- Osho
If you love a flower, don’t pick it up. Because if you pick it up it dies and it ceases to be what you love. So if you love a flower, let it be. Love is not about possession. Love is about appreciation.
- Osho
Authentic religion does not need any god, does not need any priest, and does not need any prayer. All that it need is an exploration of your inner world.
- Osho
Life is a purposeless play, a play of infinite forces-beautiful if you don’t have an achiever’s mind, ugly if you have ambition to become something.
- Osho
Never ask for sympathy. Be happy and love will be flowing towards you. Love is the right coin; sympathy is the wrong coin. It looks like love, it is not love.
- Osho
Don’t seek, don’t search, don’t ask, don’t knock, don’t demand – relax. If you relax it comes, if you relax it is there. If you relax, you start vibrating with it.
- Osho
Once your awareness becomes a flame, it burns up the whole slavery that the mind has created.
- Osho
To avoid pain, they avoid pleasure. To avoid death, they avoid life.
- Osho
Meditation is perhaps the master key for all our problems.
- Osho
The deeper your love, The deeper is your life. Think of love and life as synonymous.
- Osho
Life is very precious and the greatest treasure is hidden in it – and that treasure is of becoming a witness.
