Osho

... dirty!" This is exactly what we do with the mind. We jump into it with the hope of cleaning it. Our violent and aggressive efforts are like stepping into the stream and making it more turbid and dirty. If it were possible to look within a so-called religious person who sits to worship and to meditate in a temple, you would find that he is sitting in a temple all right, but his mind has nothing to...

... restless. Show me the way to quiet it. Should I meditate, should I fast, should I do penance?" The guru said, "Have you still not tired of doing all these things? All your life you have done these. That is the cause of your restlessness. If you are still eager to indulge in these things, please do not come to my door. This is a place for those who are non-doing. If you are prepared to do...
... THE WISE, BUT IN THE EYE OF ZEN, A SAGE'S LIFE IS ONE OF MEDIOCRITY AND THE MEDIOCRE PERSON'S AS THE SAGE'S. THIS ONE LIFE HAS NO FORM AND IS EMPTY BY NATURE. IF YOU BECOME ATTACHED TO ANY FORM, YOU SHOULD REJECT IT. IF YOU SEE AN EGO, A SOUL, A BIRTH OR A DEATH, REJECT THEM ALL. It is a very significant answer. Meditate over it. IT IS LIKE GOSSAMER. Our life is just our own ego playing all kinds of...

..., YOU SHOULD NOT SEE A THING. There will be no question of rejection. It is only a way of saying "Reject the ego." If you meditate, if you become silent, there is no ego to reject. You won't see a thing - neither life nor death, neither matter nor mind. All things will disappear. You will be an empty space, a mirror reflecting nothing. So don't be worried! First enter into meditation, have...
... goes on. He does not even meditate, he does not even give a little time so that the question that he has raised and the answer that Bodhidharma has given can have a meeting. He does not give any opportunity for Bodhidharma's answer to sink deep into his heart. Bodhidharma ends one answer, he immediately brings another question. The fifth question: WHAT DO YOU CALL THE MIND WHICH HAS NOTHING TO KNOW...

.... This unique man, unique not only amongst men but unique amongst buddhas, is very close to my heart BECAUSE OF his uniqueness. He is a rare flower - wild, but very rare. Meditate over these words. Each word is pregnant. Each word is a seed. Each single word, if allowed to fall into the heart, can transform you totally. Enough for today. Generated by PreciseInfo ™ ...
... meditate over each statement. First, he says: DEFENDING THE HUMAN DIGNITY OF THE POOR... How you can defend the dignity of the poor? There is no other way than destroying poverty. There is no other way, categorically I say, there is no other way than to destroy the poverty itself. Only when people are not poor they start feeling that they are worthy they can have a life of pleasures, happiness, joy, they...

.... If machines can do all this work - and they can do - then man is freed, then man can do all those things that he had always wanted to do but there was no time and no opportunity. He can sing songs, he can dance, he can play, he can meditate, he can pray, he can rest, he can relax, he can be creative, he can paint, sculpt - he can do thousands of things which everybody deep down wants to do but...
... been a problem. It has been almost a religious ritual in Japan, in China. A Buddhist monk starts his life with tea. In the early morning, before he goes to meditate, he takes tea. After he has meditated he takes tea, and takes it in such a religious way, with such grace and dignity. It has never been thought of as a problem; in fact Buddhists discovered it. Legendarily it is connected with...

... meditate on the singing kettle. Then the cups and saucers will be given to them. They will touch the cups and saucers, look at them, because they are pieces of art. And nobody likes to use cups and saucers purchased from the market. Every monastery makes its own. Rich people make their own. Poor people, if they cannot afford to make their own, purchase them from the market, break them, reglue them; they...
... perfect, it is no more a meditation. When the meditator has really achieved the goal, he does not meditate. He cannot meditate because that too is now an activity like walking, eating. He has become separate from everything. That is the difference between dhyan and samadhi, between meditation and samadhi. Meditation is of the fifth body, the bliss body. It is still a therapy, a medicine. You are still a...
... perfect, why not use it as an opportunity, and work on your being? Work on your consciousness. Grow a beautiful soul! And the body is not your reality - it is just the house you live in. Don't get attached to it too much. It is just a dress that you are wearing. If it is torn apart, okay; it is just a dress. Don't be too much obsessed with it. Just shift your attention. Meditate... Love... create. And...
... must become a necessary study for all sannyasins. Tenth... am I still right? "Yes, Osho." Good. The book I am going to talk about is a Sufi one, THE BOOK OF BAHAUDDIN. The original Sufi mystic, Bahauddin created the tradition of Sufism. In his small book everything is contained. It is like a seed. Love, meditation, life, death... he has not left anything out whatsoever. Meditate over it...
... great if man can rise a little upwards. I have been watching the AA commune's work and I am perfectly happy; something good is on the way. But it is only the first step, and without the second step the whole effort will fizzle out. So meditate here, try to understand me and then take the message to your people! [Another sannyasin says: I feel such a difference when I see you and when I hear your voice...
...-loving is the only loneliness there is. So first meditate and become one, and second, love and drop this loneliness. There is no need. Create friendships, mm? Good. [Another sannyasin says: My ego plays so many tricks on me. I don't know where I am really.] Don't fight with it. Enjoy the game. Enjoy the ego game but enjoy it consciously, that's all. Just make it aware, deliberate. When you see that the...
