Osho

... deep-rooted disrespect for life and existence. My approach is that of reverence for life. The rebel will be ready to die, but he will not be ready to kill. It is the pride of man to die for a cause; it is animalistic to kill someone, however great the cause may be. By killing, you have spoiled it completely. And looking practically, the rebel is an individual against the whole world; even if he...

... perversions to disappear, have to declare the death of God, because only with the death of God can those religions disappear and leave man in freedom to live according to his nature. Elsie the Cow was on one side of the fence, and Ferdinand the Bull was on the other side. Elsie gave Ferdinand a wink, and he leaped over the fence to her side, "Are not you Ferdinand the Bull?" she asked. "Just...
... books. It is all finished. I am keeping my eyes open only for you, just to see you and let you see in my eyes is enough. Whatever I had to achieve, I have achieved. I have loved enormously. I have been loved by millions of men and women. There is not any experience which was worth having that I have not passed through. If death comes in this moment I will be going rejoicing, because it is not taking...

... know what she is doing outside, what she is saying outside, in my name. And you will be surprised and shocked, that even my room, my sitting room, my bedroom - they were all bugged. On the surface they were all saying that they love me and they are ready to die for me. What could be the reason to bug my room? And Vivek suspected it, because her room was also bugged. Hasya's house was bugged, and...

... in silence again. Even if I die, just because of old habit I will go on speaking. Habits die hard; man dies very easily. But I am not going into silence. I have to keep completely acquainted with what is happening, so never again such a fascist thing happens to my people. I love you so much. I could not conceive that anybody would do such criminal acts against you. And you have shown a great...
... still thinking of sex. In fact there is nothing else for him to think about - retired, what else can you do? You have to simply think about it and talk about it. Sex, which used to be a part of the physical body, has moved and become just cerebral, just in the mind. Even at the time of death, most people die with some sexual image floating in their minds. This is ugly, and the responsibility is on...

.... So these ten million people belong to the Western part of the world. Hundreds of people are dying every day because AIDS has no cure; it is slow death. Between six months and two years, you will be dying slowly. Dying quickly has a beauty about it; you don't suffer. But hanging in the limbo, knowing perfectly that there is no cure, two years of your life becomes a horrible nightmare. You don't...

... think about anything except death. If you repress sex, you are not going to transform the immense energy contained in it. But if it drops by itself through your meditations and through your understanding, with no effort on your part, it will release such a tremendous beauty and openness to your being that all you have been always dreaming and thinking will become a reality. And just as I said, Sarjano...
..., nothing in between: day and night - nothing in between; life and death - nothing in between; love and hate - nothing in between. Mind simply divides, splits, cuts a thing into two separate polar realities, makes them so contradictory that it seems impossible that there could be a way for them not to be separate, for them to be one reality. The mind has only taken the two ends of one reality. That's how...

... night. There is no opposition. At the most we can say that light is less dark, and darkness is less light. But we have to use something which makes only a difference of degrees and does not create any contradiction. And every day we see life moving into death so calmly, so quietly, without making any fuss. You cannot hear even the footsteps of death. There cannot be any contradiction. And those who...

... know, know the other side also - that death goes on moving into new forms of life. All distinctions are man-made - existence is distinctionless. Once we start thinking of one reality, distinctionless - not dividing into dualities or dichotomies - the cross can disappear from the mind. Nobody else has crucified you - you yourself are responsible, because you can put the cross away from you, and your...
..., all your prophets are nothing but your own imagination, your own projection. They are fulfilling certain needs in you, but those needs are sick. They are providing you with father-figures. It is not strange that people call God "the father," because everybody feels alone in the world, unprotected. Always death is walking by your side; it can grab you any moment. Life is so insecure and...

... disillusioned, but to be disillusioned at the time of death is meaningless. Then there is no time is left to do anything else. The people who say that enlightenment deceives people, the people who say that enlightenment is a fabrication, are people who SINCE THEY HAVE NEVER AWAKENED THEMSELVES, THEY DON'T BELIEVE ANYONE HAS AWAKENED EITHER. It is like blind people who don't believe that there is light -- and...

... fools who can even misunderstand your silence ... There are so many kinds of idiots in the world; their categories are inexhaustible. I have heard ... A man was dying of AIDS and his gay friends were consoling him, "Everybody who is born has to die." And one of them said, "At least you should be happy that your results are positive." In his mind, the word 'positive' has some value...

... wait outside in a queue. Do you see the cunningness? They accept that Gautam Buddha has the impact of a god, they accept that he has influenced millions of people, but they managed to plant the idea that whoever follows Gautam Buddha -- although he is one of the incarnations of God -- will fall into hell. And slowly, slowly they convinced the people. After Gautam Buddha's death, within just five...
..., Rajasthan, India Archive Code: N.A. Short Title: N.A. Audio Available: N.A. Video Available: N.A. Length: N.A. THE ASURAS - THE DEMONS - ARE THOSE WHO ARE ENVELOPED IN THE DARKNESS OF SELF-IGNORANCE. THOSE WHO ARE KILLERS OF THE SELF GO TO THE WORLD OF THE ASURAS AFTER DEATH. The Upanishads divide man into two categories. First, those who kill the atman - the self; they are suicidal because they kill...

... to kill the body does not mean to kill the atman. To kill your own body is certainly to commit suicide. It certainly means your own death, and yet, at the same time, it is not your own. It is merely a changing of the cover, of the body. It is the killing of the body, not of the self - not of the atman. The Upanishad calls him the killer - the destroyer of the self - who goes on living without...

... have not the least idea about the seed itself, the result can only be unhappiness for me, whatever I may try to be, because I cannot be what I try to be, and in consequence I become miserable, afflicted, worried. I will die in tensions and worries. My whole life will be a mad race of cravings, but I will reach nowhere. Though the journey is very long, I will not find the destination, because it is...

... another. Some days before his death, Freud wrote in a letter to his friend: "After hearing about the miseries of thousands of people throughout my life, I have come to the conclusion that mankind is destined to remain unhappy always, the reason being that man does not know what he wants." When a man like Freud says such a thing, the matter is worth thinking about. He says, "I have arrived...
..., UNCHANGEABLE AND ETERNAL. SO IT IS CALLED ONE'S ORIGINAL FACE. THIS MIND IS INTRINSICALLY PURE. WHEN WE ARE BORN IT IS NOT NEWLY CREATED, AND WHEN WE DIE IT DOES NOT PERISH. IT HAS NO DISTINCTION OF MALE OR FEMALE, NOR HAS IT ANY COLORATION OF GOOD OR BAD. IT CANNOT BE COMPARED WITH ANYTHING, SO IT IS CALLED BUDDHA-NATURE. YET COUNTLESS THOUGHTS ISSUE FROM THIS SELF- NATURE AS WAVES ARISE IN THE OCEAN OR AS...

... REALIZATION." WHAT IS TERMED "ZAZEN" IS NO MORE THAN LOOKING INTO ONE'S OWN MIND. BECAUSE SEARCHING ONE'S OWN MIND LEADS ULTIMATELY TO ENLIGHTENMENT, THIS PRACTICE IS A PREREQUISITE TO BECOMING A BUDDHA. Anando, it is a great moment of rejoicing that finally Basui has come home. Old habits die hard. He is now a master, but here and there, a few pieces from before, from when he was just a...

... a master. He knows how to express as a teacher but he has now become a master. We can understand his difficulty. THIS NO-MIND IS INTRINSICALLY PURE. WHEN WE ARE BORN IT IS NOT NEWLY CREATED, AND WHEN WE DIE IT DOES NOT PERISH. IT HAS NO DISTINCTION OF MALE OR FEMALE, NOR HAS IT ANY COLORATION OF GOOD OR BAD. The description shows that he has begun to see and feel. IT CANNOT BE COMPARED WITH...

... silence and the grandeur of it, the peace and the splendor of it... These are the few moments which will prove the most precious in your life. And if you are alert enough, you will spread these moments all over your life and death, because the experience of the buddha within you is the experience of eternity within you. Okay, Anando? Yes, Beloved Master. Can we celebrate the ten thousand buddhas? Yes...
... opposite polarities. Delusion and enlightenment, night and day, birth and death, they are all one process but the mind cannot conceive it. It is intrinsically incapable of conceiving of the oneness of life and death, of light and darkness. And even if somehow it can be proved logically that they are one, the greatest problem arises about delusion and enlightenment. Are they one? Tozan shows that he is a...

... guidance to die, somebody will have to give them proper guidance: this is the way to die! But I hope it will not be needed. Proper Sagar has been from the very beginning proper. Everything that he does has to be proper, British. He cannot get out of that insanity. At least here you need not be insane. But his problem must have been how to fall - some lady is lying beside you and if you fall somebody may...
... fall into the well. Then the vultures eat the corpse, and only the bones fall into the well. The well is full of bones - it is a very big well. And on all the trees you will find thousands of vultures sitting, waiting for somebody to die. They live only on the dead. Strange it is that the mind also lives on something dead, not on anything living. When the mind starts the journey it thinks it is...

... reservations at all, and you will always be getting into deeper benediction, into deeper blessings. Question 3: BELOVED OSHO, I LOVED IT WHEN ONCE YOU SAID, "WHEN I STARTED I WAS IN A MAJORITY OF ONE." DOES TRUTH ALWAYS PREVAIL? Even today I am in the majority of one. I will die in the majority of one! Truth is not something that can become collective; it remains individual. The collective masses...

... be my death. You will rejoice and jump with me, rather than saving yourself and feeling guilty forever. No, you are not like penguins. But the masses are like that; they watch, and if something succeeds, then they follow. If somebody fails, then they simply laugh, that he was foolish. When the Wright brothers were making their first airplane they were thought to be mad, even by their own family...

... are sitting under a cloud of death. If they had accepted us we would have been in the same danger. We should send them thank you notes saying, "You are great! How did you manage to find out that some calamity is going to happen so that these beautiful people should not be put in danger?" Generated by PreciseInfo ™ ...
.... Only by losing oneself does one attain one's self. Just as new life sprouts from a seed only when the seed breaks apart and ceases to be, the shoot of immortality springs up only when the seed, the "I", the sheath of the soul also breaks apart and ceases to be. Please remember this precept: to attain your self you have to cease to be. Immortality can be had at the cost of death. A raindrop...

... whole key of yoga. Stop and look, and the eleventh direction opens up before you. Through it you enter the inner space. The inner space is the soul. I see that you are all running after something but all this running ends in nothing but a fall. Don't you see people falling every day? Isn't that the result of all running? Doesn't all running end in death? But those who know this truth at the outset are...

... root, to the source, to the fountain of supreme knowledge. A sadhu once asked people what they were like before they were born. If you meed that sadhu what will you say to him? Do you know what you were like before you were born? Do you know what you will be like after your death? If you learn to stop and look, you can know. You can know the one that was before birth, the one that will be after death...
