... by yourself. You ask the question and you answer the question -- we are very much embarrassed." Jui Yen said, "You need not be embarrassed. I simply want to assure myself that I am not standing in the way. When I say, 'Boss,' I'm calling to my being. My body is a servant, my mind is a servant, my being -- which is deathless -- is the boss. And when I call 'Boss,' and the answer comes...
.... The song that he sang last says ... in Hindi, just as in English or Arabic, the body is called the earth. The word 'human' comes from humus, and humus means mud. The word 'adami' or 'adam' comes also from mud. The song that he was singing and died singing was, "When I die, don't take my body to the funeral or to the cemetery. The earth in my body belongs to the pub" -- he was a drunkard...
... -- "so please let my body be put in a grave inside the pub. I will be dead but others who will be alive ... if they can just drop a few drops of wine over my grave, that will be enough satisfaction for me." You would not call him a saint, you would not call him religious -- he was not, but he lived a life of utter simplicity, of tremendous beauty. He never harmed anybody, and there was a shine...
... laughter. After that is absolute silence and serenity. That laughter is the last thing, and beyond that nothing can be said. Beyond that there is the infinite, the eternal to experience ... but that is beyond words, nothing can be said about it. But if you have been able to laugh at your own ridiculousness, that proves you have become an observer, detached from your mind, from your body. Now you can...
... to earth. Christianity simply confused the Roman tradition, because it is just the opposite: anti-body, anti-matter, anti-joy. Romans were different people. They had no religion. They had no hypocrisy about morality. They were plain and simple, natural beings. They enjoyed life, they loved life and they lived to its intensity. And that background is still present in every Italian. It needs just a...
... people are trying to harm me, then these people have to be removed. Sheela has always been asking me that she can find a better doctor than Devaraj, so why not change the doctor? I said, "It is not a question of doctor. In the first place, I don't think you can find a better doctor here in the commune. Secondly, even if you can find, I will not change, because he knows my body for ten years. And...
... my body functions in different ways, reacts in different ways, than an ordinary body does." So in the beginning he was himself very much puzzled. He will give some medicine and it will bring such bad result that he was surprised that this has never happened. He has studied about this medicine. Never any indication in any book that this can cause any trouble. This is very innocent. But slowly...
... he became aware that books don't matter. He has to listen to on* my body. And then he started taking notes: what medicines affect me in what way. And slowly slowly he got the grip. So I said, "It is not a question of better doctor. The question is one who understands the language of my body." But I asked her, "Why you want Devaraj to be changed? What is the trouble?" Now I can...
... whether you can be with me even in my absence. If you can be with me in my absence, with the same celebration - however difficult it may seem in the beginning - you will find a tremendous fulfillment. And the absence will no longer be an absence; you will be filled with my presence wherever you are. It is a question of a certain rhythm; otherwise two persons can sit together touching each other's body...
... loneliness starts. But when Ramakrishna died - and it was just in the past century - his wife, Sharda, refused to follow the ten-thousand-year-old tradition. She said, "Ramakrishna cannot die - at least for me. He may have died for you; to me it is impossible because to me his physical body became irrelevant long ago. His presence and the experience, the fragrance, have become a reality - and they are...
... still with me. And until they leave me I am not going to break my bangles or cut my hair or do anything, because to me he is still alive." People thought that she had gone mad: "The shock seems to be too much - not a single tear." Even when Ramakrishna's body was taken to the burning place she did not come out of the home. She was preparing food for Ramakrishna. The man was dead - his...
... body had been carried to the crematorium - and she was preparing food because it was his lunch time. And somebody told her, "Sharda, are you mad! They have taken his body away." She laughed and she said, "They have taken his body but they have not taken his presence; that has become part of my being. And I am not mad. In fact by dying he has given me an opportunity to know whether his...
.... Bring some light - just a candle will do - and the snake is no longer found. It was never there in the first place. Birth is as illusory as the snake seen in a rope; and if birth is illusory, of course death is illusory. You are never born and you never die. You certainly enter into a body - that is a birth - and one day you leave the body - that's what you call death - but as far as you are concerned...
... early morning sun. So the second thing, Pramod: I am not going to die. Certainly, one day I will leave the body - in fact I left it twenty-five years ago. There is no longer any connection with the body. I am just a guest, I don't own it. I am no longer part of it, it is no longer part of me. We are together, and on friendly terms - there is no antagonism, I respect it because it gives me shelter...
... - but there is no bridge. The body is there, I am here, and between the two there is a gap. But for the sake of your question I consulted the future Akashic records. They are continuously guarded by two persons. One is Master Kuthumi, son of Madame Bla-bla, better known as Madame Blavatsky. Master K. H., Master Kuthumi, is Madame Bla-bla's son; mother and son both guard the records. It is very easy to...
... records. Pramod asked me this question a few days ago, but I had to wait. Only last night could I look into the future records. This is what is written there... You can see, the Akashic records are big, their pages are also very big - this is only a paragraph! Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh had dropped his body. When he arrived at the entrance to Heaven, St Peter was waiting to usher him to a special tribunal...
... they are missing much. [The group leader says: When you say to hit them when they're falling asleep - I mean, they're not literally asleep?] No, no, just when they are getting sleepy.... Yes, the body immediately shows - the face, everything shows that they are ready to fall asleep. They are not asleep - it is difficult to fall asleep sitting in that posture... And remember, you have to be very...
... miss. The stomach goes through changes when the mind changes because they are deeply connected. We go on suppressing emotions - anger, sadness, all negativities - in the stomach. In fact in the body we have no other place; it works like a basement into which we go on throwing all rotten things, and they accumulate. It is the only empty space in the body, so we not only stuff it with food; we stuff it...
... what things will happen - but accept them. [Another member of the group described some of his experiences, saying that after the seventh day the time seemed to pass very quickly, the hour of sitting seeming to be just a few minutes. He said he felt his body to be like the stump of a tree which was cut open, and he felt himself to be the air inside that hole. At one stage he heard the crying of a...
... inside, and if something happens in the body, allow it, whatsoever it is. If any movement comes in the body, energy starts waving in the body, or if you become like a small leaf in a strong wind, just pray and allow it. [Osho started to write her sannyas name as she sat in front of him, her eyes closed.] Now I am going to be with you. this will be your new name: Ma Anand Tushita. Tushita means paradise...
... butcher. (smiling) [The group member continues: I seem to have gone through so much pain in this group. I cried for the first time in seven years.] The pain was there... you were hiding it. They cannot create pain, they can only bring it out. It is just like the pus is inside the body and they force it out. It is painful, but they cannot create it; it is there inside the wound. You go on believing that...
... feelings are stirred. Love is almost like a backbone to the feeling body. If your backbone is taken out you will be spineless . . . just a heap, a blob. Your spine holds you together. Exactly in the same way the feeling body is held together by the spine of love. If you are not in love you can control your anger very easily. In fact, if you are not in love at all there will not be any opportunities to be...
...; she cannot slip and fall. And it is not only a question of her own body - another being is there, and very fragile. When you are here with me you become pregnant with my presence. Take it very slowly, carefully. Handle it with care. And tonight you will be able to carry at least a little part of it Then go home and sit and again revive it; again relive it - again it will be there. And once you have...
... other's body - the music of their love, sharing their energy, and you entered into the world out of that meeting. And one is absolutely part of the whole. Sometimes you play on the flute absolutely alone - one needs freedom - but one needs love also. Freedom alone without love is desert-like, barren, futile. Of course the desert also has a beauty of its own but just a desert is too monotonous. Love...
.... With the sky be the sky, with darkness be darkness and with light be light. Do not keep aloof. Let the drop that you are fall into the ocean. And then you will know that which is beauty, music and truth. If I walk I must be conscious that I am walking; if I stand up I must be conscious that I am standing up. No act of the body or of the mind should occur in unconsciousness, in a half-sleep. If in...
... seen. Only then can the doer be seen. Sarahapada has said, "O mind, go and rest - somewhere where the sun and the moon do not reach and where even the air does not dare to enter." Such a place is within you and nobody but you can enter. That is your atman, your soul. Your body on the other hand extends to a point where others do have access. The limit of the world's entry into you is the...
... boundary of your body. The world can enter it because it is a part of the world, of samsara. The senses are the doors through which the world enters. The mind is a hodgepodge of impressions that have entered you like this. That which is beyond the body, beyond the mind and the senses is the soul, atman. Without attaining that soul life is useless, because without knowing and attaining it all knowledge...
... ALONG THE ROAD LEADING TO MY WORK PLACE." NAN-SEN WORKED HARD UNTIL EVENING, AND CAME HOME VERY HUNGRY. THE STRANGER HAD COOKED AND ENJOYED A GOOD MEAL BY HIMSELF, THEN THROWN AWAY ALL PROVISIONS AND BROKEN ALL THE UTENSILS. NAN-SEN FOUND THE MONK SLEEPING PEACEFULLY IN THE EMPTY HUT, BUT WHEN HE STRETCHED HIS OWN TIRED BODY BESIDE THE STRANGER'S, THE LATTER GOT UP AND WENT AWAY. YEARS LATER, NAN...
... - not only intellectually , but with your whole being. Feel the meaning in every cell of your body, mind and soul. It would be very difficult to find such a story in the history of any other religion. ONE DAY, WHILE NAN-SEN WAS LIVING IN A LITTLE HUT IN THE MOUNTAINS, A STRANGE MONK VISITED HIM JUST AS HE WAS PREPARING TO GO TO HIS WORK IN THE FIELDS. Each and every word has to be understood clearly...
...;Prepare your lunch and if something is left over, bring it to me in the field where I will be working." NAN-SEN WORKED HARD UNTIL EVENING, AND CAME HOME VERY HUNGRY. THE STRANGER HAD COOKED AND ENJOYED A GOOD MEAL BY HIMSELF, THEN THROWN AWAY ALL PROVISIONS AND BROKEN ALL THE UTENSILS. NAN-SEN FOUND THE MONK SLEEPING PEACEFULLY IN THE EMPTY HUT, BUT WHEN HE STRETCHED HIS OWN TIRED BODY BESIDE THE...
... body breathe, but you go on and on inwards. This is the sacred temple of your being. Out of it arises every virtue and if you forget it, your life is meaningless. A thousand and one roses blossom in this silence. If you forget it, your life is just a drag from the cradle to the grave. It is all up to you whether you want to live in a desert or in a garden, whether you want to be just bones and a...
... would die first and this man has defeated us. We are laughing at our defeat and his victory. Also he lived with us for many years and we laughed together and we enjoyed each other's togetherness, presence. There can be no better way of giving him the last send off. We can only laugh. "But the whole village was sad. And when the dead monk's body was put on the funeral pyre, then the village...
... realized that the remaining two monks were not the only ones who were joking, the third who was dead was also laughing. He had asked his companions not to change his clothes. It was conventional that when a man died they changed his dress and gave a bath to the body. So the third monk had said, 'Don't give me a bath because I have never been unclean. So much laughter has been in my life that no impurity...
... can accumulate, can come to me. I have not gathered any dust. Laughter is always young and fresh. So don't give me a bath and don't change my clothes.' "So just to respect his wishes, they did not change his clothes. And when the body was put to fire, suddenly they became aware that he had hidden some Chinese fire-works under his clothes and they had started going off. So the whole village...
