Osho
... meditate. Whatsoever they do, sex comes in. And they think that the devil is playing tricks. Nobody is playing tricks. If you suppress, YOU are the devil. After two thousand years of continuous sex-repression, the West became fed up with it. It was too much. The whole wheel turned. Now, instead of repression, indulgence, to indulge in it became the new obsession. From one pole the mind moved to the other...
... allow it to become an unconscious force. Don't be pulled and pushed by it. Move knowingly, understandingly, lovingly. But make sexual experience a meditative experience. Meditate in it. This is what the East has done through Tantra. And once you are meditative in sexual experience, the quality of it starts changing. The same energy which is moving into sexual experience starts moving towards...
... is concerned with himself, not with you. There is nothing to fear. This has to be realized before a real relationship can happen. There is nothing to fear. Meditate on it. And then allow the other to enter you, invite the other to enter you. Don't create any barrier anywhere, become a passage always open, no locks, no doors on you, no closed doors on you. Then love is possible. When two centers...
.... Whenever you are chattering inside, the monkey-chatter goes on inside, you miss the truth which is always present. Whatsoever I do - talk to you, help you to meditate with me, force you into a catharsis, or persuade you to dance, to celebrate - whatsoever I do, there is only one aim: somehow to help you to become silent, because whenever you are silent, doors are open; you are in the temple. How you...
... master. And if you don't want to be a sannyasin... perhaps you thought that sannyasins are also a kind of religion; perhaps this is also a new movement, enrolling people. It is not. If you are searching truth, whether you know it or not you are a sannyasin. If you are ready to drop all your conditioning, you are a sannyasin. If you meditate and raise your consciousness to its highest potential, you are...
... for the grass. I have gone into sannyas to meditate, but since I have been in sannyas - rats, cat, cow, grass... I was never in so much business when I was in the world. Now show me a way..." They said, "Don't be worried, every problem has a solution. There is a widow in the village. She is very poor. And she, we hope, will be willing to go with you and live with you. She can take care of...
... uprooting a tree; the very foundation is demolished. This much he understood, but the word "meditation" created a problem. Immediately he asked, "I am ready to meditate, but tell me, on what?" That is our whole mind"s approach - objective. Even meditation has to be on something - a name, a form, a god, a chanting, a mantra, but something has to be there. Otherwise how are you...
... going to meditate? On what? The reality is, English has no word to translate exactly the Sanskrit word dhyana. English has three words: concentration, contemplation, meditation. But they are all objective. In concentration you put your whole mind energy on one subject. It is a useful technique for all scientific research. No science can grow without concentration. Contemplation is thinking about a...
... has been no spiritual inheritance, the air is empty, dry. It does not have the juice that nourishes the soul. And then I went around the world and I could see the difference. Perhaps, because for thousands of years the eastern genius has been consistently in search of the soul, it has created a certain atmosphere. If you meditate in the East, it seems as if everything helps: the trees, the earth...
..., the air. If you are meditating in America, you have to meditate alone - there is no help coming from anywhere. In Spain, in Portugal, there was every possibility to create another commune, but I saw the same thing would happen. The whole effort of five years in America was simply destroyed by the fanatic Christians - who don't understand anything of religion - and the fascist politicians. In fact...
.... Witnessing is the best: you close your eyes and you start watching. In that very watching, your third eye starts opening. I used to touch people's third eyes with my fingers, but I had to stop it for the simple reason that I became aware that stimulating the third eye from the outside is good if the person continues to meditate, continues to watch -- then the first experience coming from the outside will...
... in spite of you. I have told my people to meditate with a blindfold on your eyes, so when in spite of you, your eyes want to open, they cannot open. Let the black spot disappear completely, and you would have moved into a new consciousness, into a fresh space. Deva Jagat, everything is going perfectly good, only you should not open your eyes. Perhaps you become afraid: "My god, all darkness is...
... to Bodhgaya you will still find what I have described to you by the side of the temple and nearly two hundred stones in a line. For one hour Gautam Buddha used to sit and meditate, and for one hour he used to walk on those stones and meditate. When he became tired of walking he would sit; when he became tired of sitting he would walk. This way he exhausted his outgoing energy. One day he found...
... watching because watching will mean that God will simply disappear - because it was only a belief, not a fact. The prayer will disappear because it was devoted to, addressed to a God who does not exist. The devotion will disappear because there is no one high above in the sky to be devoted to. Religious people are the most afraid of watchfulness. That's my experience. They do not want to meditate, they...
... worshippers. You would never have understood them. They were touching your feet; now they are ready to kill you. You should leave this place, you should move to some other place. Here they won't let you live peacefully. You move to the mountains, find a silent place and meditate." What he said was very surprising. He said, "I can do everything - fasting, yoga asanas... I can chant mantras for...
... need to accept me as his master; there was a chance of becoming a master himself. So Teertha has become a mini-guru. He knows nothing about enlightenment. He has never meditated. Here he was involved with his groups, which have nothing to do with meditation. And I have told these therapists, "You should meditate," but it was against their egos, because they were therapists. Thirty or forty...
... people were joining their groups, and they were the leaders. To meditate with the same people was against their egos, so they never meditated. People must have been asking him, "Is your institute Osho's institute?" He said, "I have not been Osho's disciple...." Then what was he doing here? What was he doing in America? And the same has been done by Somendra, by Rajen, by a few other...
... become wild, unsophisticated, not a hypocrite, authentic, sincere. And to be with me is to live in constant danger. Jayesh is asleep; he came late in the night. He had been thinking for years to come to me, to sit silently, to relax, and to meditate. And the day he reached the commune I was arrested -- and he was arrested with me. Since then, for eighteen months he has not been able to sit silently for...
... a single moment. We have been moving around the world, being thrown out from one country to another country, and he says, "My God! Before I came to you, I had time at least to sit silently, and I had come to meditate." He had to live with me in the jail... but he's not bored; he's enjoying the whole trip. A Pole was working at a construction site where the boss left each day at eleven...
