.... The eternal is hidden in the moment. If you can be here right now, in the moment, you have entered the eternal. If you go on thinking of the future and the past, you are living in the temporal. The temporal is the world, and the eternal is nirvana. Buddha is reported to have said again and again that if you can be in the now, there is no need of any technique to meditate. It is enough. It will do...
... about God. I say, "Forget about God. You don't believe? That's perfectly good. You just meditate." And meditation does not need any prerequisite belief in God or anything - it is a scientific method. But if in the end of meditation you realize something which you had never dreamt of, then don't blame me. You will come to know something greater than God. You will not see God so that you can...
... unhappy. And when you are unhappy, then people say: "Meditate and you will become happy!" They say: "Concentrate and you will become happy; pray and you will become happy; go to the temple, be religious, be a Christian or a Hindu and you will be happy!" This is all nonsense. Be happy! and meditation will follow. Be happy, and religion will follow. Happiness is a basic condition...
... out of you. Nobody wants you to be on your own. Hence, you go on missing happiness, you go on missing direction, and, naturally, meditation has become impossible, concentration seems to be almost non-existent. You cannot concentrate, you cannot meditate, you cannot be with anything for more than a split second. How can you be blissful? Choose your own destiny. I cannot show it to you, what your...
... and start putting their eyes on the statue and the fight will start. It happened so many times that finally the police locked the temple and said to them, "Go to the court and get a decision." The case goes on - how can the court decide whether Mahavira used to meditate with closed eyes or with open eyes? The reality is, he used to meditate with half open eyes. No child should be given any...
... itself becomes something; it is not nothing. That's why you will come across many Zen stories... The disciple comes to the Master and says, "I have experienced nothing," and the Master hits him and says, "So back and meditate again! You missed!" "But," he says, "I have experienced nothing! And that's what you were saying - that to experience nothing is what meditation...
... is all about. And I have experienced it!" But the Master still persists: "You go and meditate again - you missed." Because if nothingness becomes also an experience, then it is something. You can experience only some thing. You have experienced nothingness, but once experienced it becomes an object, and there is a division: the knower and the known. Hence it is the first SATORI. Ko...
... meditate on this small anecdote: I recall the time a man gave a speech at a Rotary Club on the subject of journalism and journalists. It is one of the tenets of the Rotarians that they may not swear or use cuss-words. But the speaker, not being a Rotarian himself, did not know this, and in his talk he used a profanity he should not have used in that particular hall to that particular audience. At the end...
... playing around, then finished! Then just because of these children now you have to be together. Hercules is dead, Cleopatra is dead; just two ordinary, silly-looking people taking care of the children, because they have to be educated. And they will do the same, sooner or later. Your expectations are so great, hence the frustration. Meditate over this. Go very very slowly. The lady of the house called...
... AND THE UNLEARNING PROCESS? There is no relationship because meditation IS unlearning; they are not two things which can be related, they are one thing, one process. Meditation is unlearning, unlearning is meditation. What in fact do you do when you meditate? You simply unlearn the mind; by and by you drop the layers and layers of mind. You are like an onion, you go on peeling yourself: one layer...
... crystallized, that there is nothing opposite to you within you. You have become one unity, a unison, a harmony of all the opposites. The mind is opposites. You think one thing, and suddenly another part of the mind denies it. You want to meditate? One part of the mind says Yes, another immediately says No. You want to become a sannyasin? One part of the mind says: Right; another part of the mind says: Beware...
... meditate, four or five days, and then they come to me and they say: Nothing is happening yet. Can't you see the ridiculousness of it? What are you asking? For many lives you postpone. Then your being becomes like a ruin. Your garden is there no more. Everything is destroyed, only weeds subsist. And suddenly one day you want to have a beautiful lawn. It will take time. The weeds have to be thrown out...
... Lao Tzu are very significant. Pay attention to them. Meditate over them. Let your being be soaked with them. Generated by PreciseInfo ™ ...
... understanding that something is authentic and real, you have already said yes to it, without saying a single word. Just knowing the difference between the false and the authentic, between the mask and the original face, is enough. Meditate deeply and all that I have said to you will become absolutely clear. Don't start thinking about it, otherwise you will get more into puzzles, more into complexities. Just...
... sit silently and meditate on whatever I have said to you. And a great clarity is bound to come. It always comes. It has come to many of my people. There is no reason, Atit Kaviraj, why it will not come to you. Okay, Maneesha? Yes, Osho. Generated by PreciseInfo ™ ...
... part of the mind hates. Then one part of the mind wants to accumulate wealth, and another says, "This is useless. Renounce!" Then one of the minds wants to meditate, become deep, become silent, and another mind says, "Why are you wasting your time?" I have heard: Once it happened a man renounced the world while he was very young and went to the Himalayas. For almost twenty years...
.... Soon you will not be able to enjoy anything. You are becoming old." This was the real mantra. On the surface, "Ram, Ram, Ram" - but deep down this was the real mantra. When your mind is divided you cannot pray, you cannot meditate, because one part is always against it, and sooner or later it will win. Remember this: that the part that is engaged is losing energy every moment. And the...
