Osho
... hollow, full of straw; you don't have anything valuable. CONSULT, DELIBERATE, AND FREELY CHOOSE. Pythagoras says: CONSULT... he is not saying don't listen to others. Consult - there are more experienced people than you. CONSULT, DELIBERATE... but don't accept. Take the advice, then contemplate, deliberate, meditate over it... AND FREELY CHOOSE. The ultimate choice has to be yours. Freely choose because...
... them we need a totally different approach. And it is good they are not part of history books - they are NOT part of history; they come from the beyond, they belong to the beyond. They are only for those who are ready to rise and soar to the beyond. Meditate over this beautiful truth that Jesus is born of a virgin mother - but it is not a fact. It is certainly a truth: he is born of a mother who is...
... just being born, you are capable of love. That is nonsense. Life is an opportunity to learn what love is. The potential is there, but the potential has to be transmuted into the actual. It is like everybody is potentially capable of swimming, but that does not mean that you know what swimming is - you will have to learn. It may look paradoxical, but it is not. Meditate on this statement: One has to...
...; soon you will be dead. Then, Lying in your grave, meditate upon death as long as you want - nobody will disturb you. "But don't waste your lifetime thinking about death, because those are the people who, when they are dying, will be thinking of life. That's how their mind functions. They are never where they are, they are always where they are not. That has become their routine. While alive they...
... do something. It is not a question that you simply sit under a tree and meditate and just once in a while open your eyes and see whether the problem is solved or not. This is not a life-problem, it is a mechanical problem. If your tire is punctured you will have to change the wheel. Sitting won't do; you just get up and change the wheel. It has nothing to do with your mind and your clarity, it has...
...? Unhappiness is doubled - not only doubled, multiplied. Out of your unhappiness you seek the other; then the relationship is going to be wrong. Seek the other out of happiness, and then the relationship will never be wrong. Seek out of happiness. First meditate, first feel your own being, first pray. First grow into love; otherwise what are you going to do when you have found the lover? Then you don't know...
... you lose the very bridge between you and existence. "NEITHER BE CYNICAL ABOUT LOVE; FOR IN THE FACE OF ALL ARIDITY AND DISENCHANTMENT, IT IS AS PERENNIAL AS THE GRASS." A beautiful statement: a beautitude, a benediction, a blessing. Meditate over it. It is as perennial as the grass in the aridity and disenchantment. Your life is arid like a desert. If there is no love then your life will...
... going to think about? But you say, "Give me time, I will think about it." What are you saying? You are saying, "Give me a little, time; I will have to go into the basement of my mind and search. And there is such rubbish accumulated through the years that it is difficult to find, but I will try." Meditate, and become free from this basement. It is not that the basement is not...
... lead you to compassion. Buddha has said: If you meditate, compassion will arise automatically. Question 4: OSHO, I HEAR WHAT YOU ARE SAYING, BUT EVERYTHING IN ME IS SAYING NO, NO, NO. I WANT TO LEAVE. I WANT TO GO HOME. YOGANANDA. Yogananda, you are a fool. You have come home. Where else do you want to go? It happened: Once a drunkard came back to his home in the deep mid-night. He was so drunk that...
... in different ways. You can collect all that, you can get a Ph. D. from any university. But that is not going to make you wise, unless you meditate. So whatsoever I am saying, try it in life. While I am here don't waste time in collecting knowledge. That you can do without me, that you can do in a library. While I am here take a jump, a quantum leap into wisdom. EXPERIENCE these things I am saying...
