... towards meditation, or is it going to take them away from meditation? It is going to take them away from meditation. You are not going to be a friend; you are poisoning people if you help them to be contented with their desires. A divine discontentment is a basic step towards meditation, not contentment. If a man is contented with his money with his power, with his respectability, why should he meditate...
... discontented with the world that he is ready to be transformed whatsoever the cost, that he is ready for any risk. And meditation is a risk. It is a risk because your ego has to be sacrificed. Either you can exist, or meditation can happen. Ordinarily you think, "I am going to meditate." You do not understand the phenomenology of meditation. You cannot meditate. You are the barrier, you are the...
.... If you are continuously researching about objects, soon you forget that you are a subject; you become an object. And each individual who enters a school, college, or university should have hypnotic sessions in which he can be encouraged to meditate - so meditation comes from within him, it is not imposed from the outside. It is not compulsory to meditate, but it becomes compulsory to meditate...
... something to lose. And in the Soviet Union he has lost it. He has lost his freedom, he has lost his individuality. And what has he gained? In seventy years, he is just as poor as ever. But to the spiritually poor... the spiritual proletariat have nothing to lose. And there is no question of being united. I say, "Spiritual proletariat, meditate. You have nothing to lose but everything to gain."...
... space. It is an individual phenomenon - with no organizations, no unity. You have nothing to lose. You don't have individuality - you can get it through meditation. You don't have freedom - because your mind is your slavery. You can get freedom if you can put your mind aside. You are full of fear. Fear is basically connected with death. If you meditate and know yourself, you know there is no death...
... - you have learned a new art. Meditation begins very slowly and goes deeper as you become more and more accustomed to it. So don't be worried. Fear is natural, but it disappears. And I am here. All these people are here meditating. If you cannot meditate with these meditators, it will be very difficult for you to do it alone. When you see so many people swimming, suddenly you start feeling that if all...
... flowered in you, the perfume will spread. It will work in its own way. Something has happened to you. You are calm and at ease, tranquility has been achieved. That will do the work; you will not have to work. What has happened to you will draw people to you. They will come by themselves; they will ask about what has happened to you. Let others plan, and you just go and meditate. Things will begin to...
... distracting yourself and others. You cannot help others to meditate if you yourself are tense. You cannot help! You will be helpful only if you proceed without plans. Just go. Sit there, meditate and see what happens. Things are bound to take their own course. Generated by PreciseInfo ™ ...
... and be finished with it. Forget all about it and meditate again. There is no need to think about it, not even to remember it. Don't make it a memory, don't make it a greed, otherwise that will become the barrier. Many people miss. For the first time meditation happens to many people but then the mind comes in and starts planning saying, 'Now I will meditate and it is going to happen. This time I...
... ambition that drives the whole world into futile directions. The non-ambitious can rest, the non-ambitious can simply sit, meditate. The ambitious cannot clo that - the ambitious cannot think of meditation at all. He is constantly restless, he is constantly in tension. He is always in the future. He is never herenow. For that, ambition has to disappear. And water represents the non-ambitious quality...
... only lovers know that god exists. Only in moments of love is god revealed. So meditate on the water element; find out - it has infinite qualities, and all its qualities are beautiful. Anand means bliss, sunito means virtue. Bliss is virtue. Nobody has said that before. There have been many definitions of virtue, but never has virtue been defined as bliss. To me, all those definitions are lacking. All...
... happens then the child will be very sane and will not have many kinds of mental illnesses that are naturally there with every child, with every human being, because the very beginning is wrong. The birth of a child in pain is a bad beginning, not a good start - the relationship is already of the enemy. So for these six or seven days, just relax, prepare, be joyful, meditate, pray to god. Just remember...
... should bask. Continue - it is yours. And, basking, basking, a day will come when suddenly you will find others have started basking in your presence. lust continue to meditate - nothing to be worried about. Good! Generated by PreciseInfo ™ ...
... gone, all his possessiveness is gone. If he cannot love then who else can love? And a man of love can go deepest in meditation because love is our highest quality, our purest self, our perfect song. If two singing hearts cannot meet in deep meditation then no other meeting is possible. In fact, the people who have escaped to the mountains to meditate, think only of women in their meditation. They...
... for the first time in the whole history of man -- to bring love and meditation as two sides of the same experience. Why should love disturb your meditation? In fact, love should give you the right atmosphere, the right soil to meditate. And meditation should give you the right fragrance for love to become a treasure, a glory, a benediction. Okay, Maneesha? Yes, Osho. The Golden Future Generated by...
... everything is false. Then you will sit silently and pretend; then you will meditate and pretend. Pretension becomes the style of your life. Don't pretend. Let the real come out. If you can wait and be patient enough, when the pretensions have dropped the real will be waiting there to explode. Catharsis is to drop the pretenses. Don't look at what the other is saying because that is how you have pretended...
... else. Only the situation can be created. That's what I mean when I tell you to meditate. Meditation is just a situation; silence is not going to be the consequence of it. No, meditation is just creating the soil, the surrounding, preparing the ground. The seed is there, it is always there; you need not put in the seed, the seed has always been with you. That seed is Brahma; that seed is atma. -- that...
... laughter. Your enlightenment is perfect only when silence has come to be a celebration. Hence my insistence that after you meditate you must celebrate. After you have been silent you must enjoy it, you must have a thanksgiving. A deep gratitude must be shown towards the whole just for the opportunity that you are, that you can meditate, that you can be silent, that you can laugh. Anything more? Question...
... ARE REBORN YOU CANNOT ENTER THE KINGDOM OF GOD." PLEASE COMMENT ON THIS APPARENT CONTRADICTION. Divakar, all contradictions are apparent. If you meditate a little bit, you will see that there is no contradiction. I say, "Accept yourself as you are." And I also say, "Unless you are reborn you cannot enter the kingdom of God." Now, you are creating the contradiction by not...
... about his suffering. Why don't you revolt against it? If you are really fed up, then do something. Get out of it! Who can prevent you? But people are not doing anything. Suffering has become their life-style. If suffering disappears, what will they do? They feel that nothing will be left; there will be nothing to complain about. Meditate over your suffering, and see that somewhere deep down you must...
... asked... For seventy years people had watched him, he had never been found sad. One day they asked him, "What is the secret of your happiness?" He said, "There is no secret. Every morning when I wake up, I meditate for five minutes and I say to myself, "Listen, now there are two possibilities: you can be miserable, or you can be blissful. Choose." And I always choose to be...
... been with Sufis. And all Sufis are alike: if you have seen one Sufi you have seen all, the taste is the same. There is a dervish song, a Sufi song. Meditate over it. It may be said: "They came in vain." Let it not be that they came in vain. We leave this, the bequest, to you; We finished what we could, we left the rest to you. Remember, this is work entrusted - Remember, beloved, we shall...
