Osho

... wing, in the flowers, in the trees, in the oceans. All this vast universe is enough unto itself. It needs no God - God is only a consolation for the ignorant. The meditator encounters existence itself. His own being becomes the experience of godliness. He knows that in his own inner being he is part of eternal life. There is no death, there has never been any death. Experiencing this, there arises a...

.... Gratitude is not possible before experiencing something of the ultimate. Question 2: BELOVED MASTER, EXPERIENCING HEADACHE, I DISCOVERED MY MALE NATURE. EXPERIENCING HEARTACHE, I DISCOVERED MY FEMALE NATURE. BELOVED MASTER, IS THERE ALSO GOING TO BE A BEING-ACHE? Paritosh Gyano, there is no such thing as being-ache. The being knows superb wholeness, health. It knows no disease, no sickness, no death. To...
... see that their life is slipping by, time is becoming shorter and shorter every day; time is running out and any moment death will knock at the door and they have not found yet! The search becomes more and more maddening. But one cannot find God without. Not that God is not without, but before you can find him without you will have to find him within. Once you have seen him within yourself you will...

... he has much energy, which unless it is put to some creative use can become destructive.It is better to punch people's minds rather than their noses!] This will be the name for the center: Sahid. It is a Sufi name for God. Literally it means "the martyr, one who is ready to die to help people. For example, Christ is a sahid: he died so that people could live on a higher plane of life. Socrates...

... is a sahid: he died in the service of truth. So those who are ready to sacrifice their lives for something higher - truth, God, love - are sahid. That is the literal meaning, but it is also a name of God, because God is ready to sacrifice himself for his world. He is always ready to die so that we can live. Anand means bliss, satranga means the rainbow, the seven colors of the rainbow. Bliss has to...
... the tile, the master would close the book. The moment he died -- he was so much loved -- but the moment he died, people were more concerned about the book than about his death. They immediately took out the book, and they were shocked and surprised: the book contained nothing! It was an empty book. They turned all the pages... somewhere, perhaps, the message. They went on again and again; perhaps...

... worship him -- but truth is truth. The Buddha of your conceptions is an illusory phantom. You have to go beyond it. You have to be simply nothing. "THE PATRIARCHS ARE OLD MONKS. YOU YOURSELVES, ARE YOU NOT BORN OF A MOTHER?" If you are born of a mother, then you are bound to die sooner or later. Every birth makes it certain that you are going to die. Everything is so illusory; what are you...
... nourishment of your I, your ego and the ambition has to be a constant process which stops nowhere till you die. It starts by the moment the child starts understanding language and it goes on and on up to the last breath. It is a very strange game. To keep anything false, giving you the appearance of the real, you cannot stop the process and have a look at it. You can look at it only in the process. Then, it...

... they have reached the end of the ladder suddenly they have to stop because there is nowhere else to go. They have reached to the end of the ladder before their death. The ego disappears. It is only in the process. While they were going from one rung to another rung, it was there. But when they have reached to the last rung, it is just not there, and suddenly a realization: that their whole life they...

... is nowhere to go. Suddenly, the wheel of fire has disappeared, they are disillusioned. All successful people if they are intelligent, die disillusioned. Only mediocre people can avoid disillusionment, for two reasons: because they are mediocre they cannot reach to the very end of the ladder -- the competition is tough and they don't have the intelligence to make it. Secondly, even if they can make...
... energy and greater power - because they have to be mothers. Nature depends on them for reproduction, for life to continue. Man"s hand in life"s perpetuation is negligible. On the contrary, man has been the cause of bringing destruction and death to millions of people around the globe. As far back as you can go, you will always find man fighting. His whole effort, his whole intelligence and...

... genius has been devoted singularly in creating more powerful weapons to destroy. Woman is the source of life; man seems to be in the service of death. And of course the source of life has more creative possibilities than man can ever have. It is not a coincidence that even those few men who have been great musicians or dancers or poets or painters, in some way became as graceful as women. Friedrich...

... into the womb of the whole existence. Nirvana and the kingdom of God are nothing other than entering into the womb of existence itself where no responsibility, no burden, no fear, no death ... but only a pure, eternal dance of blissfulness. The moment the woman is totally free, not only will she make life more peaceful, more full of laughter, she will also make man calm down, be less tense. And you...
...! He was repenting -- why had he created man? Without man life was peace, silence, trees, animals and birds. They were all joyous, without any fear of death, without any religions, without any philosophies, without any theologies, without any wars. Things were utterly silent -- but the moment he created man he committed his first and last mistake. So he asked, "Now what to do?" Somebody...

... Buddha is the same: A great saint came from the Himalayas. He had not visited the world for fifty years, but his death was approaching and Buddha had been born. No messenger had informed him, nobody knew that this man was going to be a Buddha, but the old man had an absolute certainty. The same star was guiding him too. He rushed fast because he was not certain that he would be able to reach there in...

... time; he might die before reaching. But he reached there and as he was known all over the country as one of the most wise men, the father of Gautam Buddha touched his feet and said, "Why have you taken the trouble? The journey is tedious; you could have simply sent a message and I would have come. What is the reason? He said, "No, I had to come. I want to see the baby that was born in your...
... of the same phenomenon; they are not separate. It is just like a door: you can go in, you can go out. On one side of the door is written "Push"; and on the other side is written "Pull." The black hole de-creates; it is a death. Not only do you get tired and old, now they say even metal gets tired; even for machinery, working twenty-four hours a day is not right. You are creating...

... too much tension in the metal. It needs a little rest to recover itself; otherwise, soon it will not be functional anymore. Even machines become old, just as men do. Stars become old, just like anything else. When a star or a planet has become too old and cannot hold itself together any more, it disappears into a black hole. Its death has come. It is a de-creation. The function of the black hole is...

... same race of warriors to which you belong. Defeat is simply not acceptable. Death is acceptable, but defeat -- no. I am also going to remain. The chariot can go back empty." This dropping will help you to understand the dialogue between Yen Yang and Chou. Chou is saying, "Don't carry any tension. If you have not brought anything, it doesn't matter. When you bring something, then too it...
... search. I love that poem immensely, because life should be a search, not a finding. The finding means the full point has arrived. Death is a finding. Life is gypsy. So I am still searching for the home. And I will go on searching for the home, knowing perfectly well the home is not something that has to be found. It has to be searched -- but not found. Q: COULD IT BE, BHAGWAN, IN THE NORTH OF INDIA TO...

...;Christ" and "Christian" both are Greek. After three hundred years of Jesus' death when his sayings were translated into Greek he became "Jesus the Christ." Now, these popes have been killing Jews not knowing that they are worshipping a Jew in every church. And they have not been appointed by Jesus. And as far as Christianity is concerned, to me it is one of the worst religions...

... people are going to create as many poor people in the world that the world cannot support. In India, my estimate is that fifty percent people will die just out of starvation by the end of this century if we do not prevent now. Thirty years before I started teaching birth control, the pill, abortion, and I was stoned, I was poisoned, attempts on my life were made because I was "creating immortality...
... was the seed, his buddhahood was the flowering. Siddharth is a beautiful name. It was given to him by a very strange man; nobody knows his name. He had come the day Gautam Buddha was born. He was an old, very old, almost ancient saint living in the Himalayas. He rushed, because his death was very close. His disciples asked, "Where are you going? At this age don't go for any travel, it can prove...

.... You all have to claim your birthright. Question 2: BELOVED OSHO, WHAT IS INNOCENCE? WHY ARE INNOCENT PEOPLE SUFFERING THE MOST? Laheru, I have never seen any innocent person suffering. Innocence is such a deep blissfulness that whatever happens around it makes no difference to its bliss. Even death is irrelevant. But I can understand your question. It is not only yours; many people have asked me why...

... not rewards and punishments afterwards, beyond death, beyond this world. If you put your hand into the fire, it will be burned right now - not in the next life, not in hell. Cause and effect are connected; they cannot be separated. So if you are suffering, then think again whether your innocence is innocence. Your suffering should become a question mark. And you will find that your innocence is not...
... flowers and fragrance. What happened to the thousands of other seeds? They never gathered courage to disappear in the soil. They remained protective of themselves. The protection became their death. The one who dared to die in the earth began a new life, started rising upwards against gravitation, started transforming the earth into green foliage, into the beautiful colors of the flowers, into great...

... nourishment to it, those flowers will never be attained; on the contrary, you may miss even the tree, the tree may die. But mind is a strange thing. It is always concerned about that which you have not got. That which you have got you don't rejoice in, and you are miserable for that which you have not got. A sannyasin has to shift his whole focus. It is a simple matter of understanding. Deva Abhiyana, don't...
