..., not desiring some other world, supra-mundane, supra-mental. It has no interest in any esoteric nonsense, no interest in metaphysics at all. It does not hanker for the other shore; this shore is more than enough. Its acceptance of this shore is so tremendous that through that very acceptance it transforms this shore -- and this very shore becomes the other shore: This very body the buddha; This very...
... yet, and just to be rooted, centered, in that which is. The whole approach of Zen is of immediacy, but because of that it can bridge the past and the future. It can bridge many things: it can bridge the past and the future, it can bridge the East and the West, it can bridge body and soul. It can bridge the unbridgeable worlds: this world and that, the mundane and the sacred. BEFORE WE ENTER INTO...
... laughing: "This man seems to be crazy!" Somebody says to him, "What are you doing?" He is dead! He has been dead for four days. In fact, to enter into the cave is difficult -- his body is stinking. It is impossible! Whom are you calling?" But, unperturbed, Jesus shouts again and again, "Lazarus, come out!" And the crowd is in for a great surprise: Lazarus walks out of...
... expounded no more than this: they are commentaries on your sudden cry, 'Ah, This!'" When suddenly you are clear and a great joy and rejoicing arises in you, and your whole being, every fiber of your body, mind and soul dances, and you say, "Ah, this! Alleluia!" a great shout of joy arises in your being, that is enlightenment. Suddenly stars come down from the rafters. You become part of the...
... not to be there -- because the whole thing is so ugly. You cannot sell love, you can sell the body. You cannot sell your heart, you can sell your skill. For a prostitute making love is just a professional thing. She is doing it for the money, and she has to learn how not to be there, so she will think of her lover; she will think of a thousand and one things but not about you -- the person who is...
...! -- he has not sat, he has not slept, but the problem remains the same: how to meditate, how to become silent inside. Unmoving outside, many movements inside. There may be even more than there are with you, because your energy is divided; much energy is needed for body movements. But a man who stands without moving -- his whole energy moves inwards in the mind, he becomes inside MAD. But people respect...
... fallen there on the ground, dazed? Why this change in spirit? Why are you shaking so much? Why this trembling? What is the fear? -- because a perfect man has no fear!' Perfection is fearlessness... because a perfect man knows there is no death. Even if this old Po-Hun Wu-Jen falls, he knows he cannot really fall; even if the body shatters into millions of pieces and nobody can find it again, he knows...
..., because you can forget the source completely. This is the point. This old master, Po-Hun Wu-Jen, showed Lieh-Tzu one of the secrets. Lieh-Tzu himself became an enlightened man, he himself became what this old man was at that moment: backwards, moving towards the precipice ten thousand feet high and half his feet hanging over -- and a very old body, ninety years old, and still no trembling came to the...
.... It may not represent exactly the physiology of Gautam the Buddha - it does not really represent it; it is symbolic. It represents his meditation, not his body; not his mind but his very being. It represents his stillness. "Sitting silently, doing nothing, spring comes and the grass grows by itself." It represents that silence. He is not doing anything. Sitting in front of a Buddha statue...
... War. Then we could fill the whole earth with affluence; then poverty could disappear for the first time from the whole earth. Poverty could become a thing of the past. Much illness could disappear. Man's life could be prolonged to almost impossible limits. Three hundred years would not be a difficult target; each person could live three hundred years very easily because scientists say the body is...
... days ago when Prem Chinmaya left his body he immediately wrote a question to me: "Osho, even Prem Chinmaya s departure and the celebration were videotaped. Can't a sannyasin die in peace?" But he was already dead! Now you can do whatsoever you want - videotape him, film him... And K.B. was arranging his head for the right position - you can do anything now! Chinmaya must have been around...
... is the worldly man holy because both are not yet whole. They are unholy because they are half, and any person who is half is bound to suffer. He cannot rejoice, he cannot celebrate, he cannot know what a blessing life is. You have to know that even dust is divine, that your body is a temple. You have to become Zorba the Buddha!

... higher, then it becomes a great wave of bliss; then it reaches to the heavens. Because religions became afraid of sex, because they became afraid of the body, they became afraid of beauty: because beauty is form. God is formless. Beauty is form, but the form is of the formless. Because religions became afraid of the world, they started thinking of God as against the world - this is some absurdity that...
..., you will find the heart of the poet beating there. And unless you have penetrated that depth, you have not understood, you cannot understand it. Unless the poetry becomes the heart of the poet, it is not understood. The world has to be rejoiced. The body is beautiful - delight in it. It is a gift of God. Don't try to renounce it, because renouncing it means you reject the master. Gurdjieff used to...
... say that all religions are against God, and he is perfectly right. The so-called religions are all against God. They talk about God, but they are against God. They show it through their actions. They say, "Renounce the world, renounce the body." 'Renounce' should be a dirty word. Rejoice! Replace 'renounce' by 'rejoice' and a totally different conception of religion arises. Then aesthetics...
..., then beauty, then the sensitivity to beauty is not against spirituality. Then it becomes the beginning. And one has to deepen it. Be committed to beauty, and through it you will come to know what religions call'God'; you will come to know divinity, divineness. So this is the first thing, that there is no dichotomy between aesthetics and spirituality, between poetry and religion, between body and...
... sannyasin inside. Why divide the outside from the inside? Is there really a division between inside and outside? Where is the demarcation line? Can you draw a line and say: Beyond this is inside? Where? - at the body can you draw a line? If the body dies, you die, If the body is not there, where are you? At the mind then? - if the mind becomes unconscious you become unconscious. Who are you without the...
.... There is a subtle digestion on every plane. You take the food, it is outside. The moment you have taken it in, you digest it, the non-essential is thrown out again; the essential moves towards the center. You have digested it - it has become blood, bones, flesh - the body. Then again a digestion takes place - the most subtle of it is again absorbed. It becomes your bio - energy, what scientists call...
... jail. Yes, your body can suffer all these things, but your soul is intrinsically free. You don't have to ask for it, and you don't have to struggle for it. It is already there, this very moment. If you turn inwards, all chains, all prisons, all kinds of slaveries disappear - and there are many. Freedom is only one; slaveries are many - just as truth is one, lies can be thousands. AND AN ORATOR SAID...
... of the bed, the sons started discussing how to take his body to the graveyard. Their concern was not the father - a few minutes more and he would be gone, forever; there was no possibility of their meeting or recognizing each other again... but that was not their concern. They were concerned about: "When he dies, how are we going to transport his body?" The youngest boy suggested, "...
...;He always wanted to have a Rolls Royce. And he has enough money, we have enough money; there is no need for him to suffer and repress an innocent desire. So at least we should bring a Rolls Royce to carry his body to the graveyard. In his life he missed, but at least in death he will have the Rolls Royce." The second boy said, "You are too young and you don't understand matters concerning...
... call it "exercise." It keeps your body and mind fit -- the soul you cannot talk about; just the mind and body. In the Soviet Union the soul does not exist, it is against the policy of the government, but nobody can prevent you from doing exercises. Even if you do them five times a day, it is not a criminal act, and it is not religious. And it is good for the body and for the mind. Just...
... of the watcher. So don't say, "I am not that." There are schools which teach that -- when you see something in the mind go on saying, "I am not that. I am not the body, I am not the mind, I am not the heart; I am not this, I am not that." But the watcher is beyond all your negations, just as he is beyond your positive assertions. Remain silent; don't say anything. If some...

... your clothes - your body grows bigger, you go on changing your clothes - in the same way you go on changing your devices. And when you are really out, then there is no need for any device. All devices were there just to bring you out of your closedness, out of your grave, out of your insensitivity, out of your unconsciousness. It is reported in a Sufi master's life, that he was passing along a street...
... not have even known that somebody had looked at her. He says that the woman was not looking at him, she was not even aware - but the form of the woman, the face, the proportionate body of the woman, has persisted in his dreams. He has not married yet. He's searching for that woman. He does not know her name. He does not know where that woman has gone, from where she was coming, where she was going...
... completely forgot about food. Who eats, who enjoys eating, when death is knocking on the door? Every moment she must have been looking at the clock, at the calendar: One day is gone. Who bothers about food? and how can you enjoy food, when death is there? It was impossible. But she didn't die. Rather, her body was completely renewed. A new lease of life happened. Untrue, but wise - and this is how every...
... get drunk. And he would force the disciples to eat. Their bellies would be bursting, and they would be crying and tears would come into their eyes, and they would say, 'No, now no more!' And he would force. He was trying to change your body chemistry. And he changed many people who followed with him, who were capable and courageous enough to move with him; not afraid people who ordinarily become...
... laughed and said, 'That is what prayer is - to die. You are helping me for my final prayer, the last. And nothing better can be done by this body; this body cannot be used in a better way - on the altar of the Divine you are sacrificing me. That will be my last prayer in the world.' When they started cutting his hands he said, 'Wait a minute Let me pray, because when hands are no more there it will be...
... you repent from the roots; if your whole being shakes and trembles and cries, and tears come out; not only out of your eyes, but out of every cell of your body, then repentance can become a transfiguration. That is the meaning of Jesus when he again and again says, 'Repent!' Jesus' master, John the Baptist, has nothing much to say. His whole message was just this: 'Repent! - because the Kingdom of...
... more thirsty you become, a fire arises in your heart, and you are burning with thirst. Only then can you drop the fear and take the jump - when the thirst is more than the fear. Somebody asked Buddha, 'You say Truth cannot be taught. Then why do you teach? And you say that nobody can force any body towards enlightenment, but then why do you work so hard with people?' Buddha is reported to have said...
