Osho

... BROTHERS KARAMAZOV? He needs bread, butter, not BROTHERS KARAMAZOV! He needs a shelter from the rain, from the hot sun, he does not need music. What will he do with music? Can you make a shelter out of music? Can you make clothes out of beautiful paintings? And he is so hungry he cannot be sensitive to any higher thing. He is tethered to the body, to the lowest part of his being. When physical needs are...

... the proletariat the lowest. They are the lowest because they are living undernourished lives, they are living very deeply rooted in the body; even their bodies are not satisfied. And to talk about spirituality to those people who are hungry is absurd. Even if these hungry people go to the temples and the mosques and the synagogues and the churches they are not going for spiritual reasons, they are...
... an involution. Both are going side by side: evolution as far as age and body are concerned, and involution as far as innocence, trust and love are concerned. After Treta humanity fell still more. The stage after Treta is called dwapar. One leg is lost again - now everything is unbalanced. Standing on two legs, how can a table have trust, certainty, security, safety, balance? Fear became the...

... delivered to them. For what? To put on their faces, on their hands. Anything that was exposed on the body - rub it with the kerosene oil. Even mosquitoes don't come close to you. How can you sleep? The smell is such a stink - even mosquitoes remain away and you have to sleep. I remained only for one day, and before the evening - when I heard that this is going to happen - I said, "I am going. This is...
... heart. Love has nothing to do with biology or chemistry or hormones. Love is the flight of your consciousness to higher realms, beyond matter and beyond body. The moment you understand love as something transcendental, then love is no more a fundamental question. The fundamental question is, how to transcend the body, how to know something within you which is beyond - beyond all that is measurable...
... Title: N.A. Audio Available: N.A. Video Available: N.A. Length: N.A. Question 1: BELOVED OSHO, HOW DOES WATCHING LEAD TO NO-MIND? I AM MORE AND MORE ABLE TO WATCH MY BODY, MY THOUGHTS AND FEELINGS AND THIS FEELS BEAUTIFUL. BUT MOMENTS OF NO THOUGHTS ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN. WHEN I HEAR YOU SAYING "MEDITATION IS WITNESSING," I FEEL I UNDERSTAND. BUT WHEN YOU TALK ABOUT NO-MIND, IT DOESN'T...

... disappearing moments you will have the first glimpses of no-mind. That is what you are experiencing. You say, "I am more and more able to watch my body, my thoughts and feelings, and this feels beautiful." This is just the beginning. Even the beginning is immensely beautiful - just to be on the right path, even without taking a single step, will give you immense joy for no reason at all. And once...
... before I have to leave my body, on the one hand; and on the other hand, the feeling of urgency is not only for you, but for the whole of humanity too. Are we going to spread the fragrance of enlightenment? Have we the capacity? Have we the courage to fight against the enormous ignorance all around? You have as much power and as much capacity as any Jesus, any Socrates, any Gautam Buddha, because...

... body. And everything else that he used to be identified with - the wife, the children, the money, the power, the prestige are all left far away. Just a pure consciousness, just a flame of light has remained within him which is indestructible. Krishna says, in one of his most beautiful statements, "Nainam Chhindanti Shastrani" - you cannot cut me with weapons - "Naham Dahati Pavakah...
...; replies Ratso. "He just ran out of gas!" Nivedano... (Drumbeat) (Gibberish) Nivedano... (Drumbeat) Be silent. Close your eyes. Feel your body to be frozen. Look inwards with absolute urgency, as if this is the moment of life and death. Without a total urgency, you cannot reach to the innermost center of your being. Remember, there may be no other time; this may be the last moment. Deeper and...

... deeper, without any fear, move into the center like an arrow. It is your own life-source, and it is also the life-source of the whole universe. This is the ultimate home -- the buddha, the empty mirror of Ma Tzu. Just be a witness, a clean mirror reflecting everything without any judgment. To make it more clear, Nivedano... (Drumbeat) Relax, and see that your body is not you, your mind is not you, you...
... - not the son of a particular carpenter in Bethlehem, not a Jew, not even a man. This is Christ, something new, egoless. And the same will happen to you whenever your ego is on the cross. Whenever your ego is crucified, there is a resurrection, a rebirth. You are born again. And this childhood is eternal, because this is a rebirth of the spirit, not of the body. Now you will never become old. Always...

... consciousness. You can become so alert in a peak sexual orgasm, as you can otherwise never become - because no other experience is so deep, no other experience is so absorbing, no other experience is so total. In a sexual orgasm, you are TOTALLY absorbed, root and all - your whole being vibrating, your whole being in it. Body, mind - both are in it. And thinking stops completely. Even for a single second...
... a man starts learning politics -- do what people like. It is a very strange world... here leaders are followers of their own followers. I am not a leader, I am simply a thinker. And I will live as a thinker to the very last moment of my life. I have informed Ronald Reagan not to waste half a million dollars on killing me - - just give half a million dollars to my work and I will leave my body...

... myself. I have not paid a single rupee for my body and one day I will die and nobody will pay a single rupee for it. Half a million dollars is a perfectly good price. But why give it to somebody else and put him into trouble? I am ready to die, just give half a million dollars to my work; and it is negotiable!. Q: WHEN YOU WERE IN DELHI AND KULU LAST TIME THERE WERE REPORTS THAT THE INDIAN GOVERNMENT...
... know perfectly well what kind of things come to your mind. Sometimes you feel like barking, then get into it, bark like a dog. And whatever the world thinks, let them think. You have chosen your path, you will get free ... perhaps totally free. Enlightenment and freedom from the body will come together! But it is a bit dangerous. People may try to prevent you, because nobody knows what kind of things...

... ME IS STILL HOLDING ON AND CLINGING. I AM STILL DREAMING OF OM, THINKING OF HIM AND STILL, VERY DEEP DOWN HOPING. I HAVE HEARD YOU SAY THAT WOMEN ARE MORE CLINGING THAN MEN. AS FAR AS OM AND I ARE CONCERNED, IT IS TRUE. IT FEELS AS IF HE HAS LEFT IT FAR BEHIND AND I STILL HAVE IT IN MY MIND, IN MY HEART AND EVEN IN MY BODY. BELOVED OSHO, WHERE CAN I GO FROM HERE? Latifa, it is part of our...
... deep inside you, religions have created a certain conscience which goes on dominating you. It is almost like one great scientist, Delgado.... He has found that in the human brain there are seven hundred centers. Those centers are connected with your whole body, the whole system. There is a center for your sex, there is a center for your intelligence, and for everything in your life. If at a...

... the body. To me, the pagan is the beginning of real spirituality; it is not the end. Zorba is the beginning and Buddha is the end. The beginning I have to find in Italy, and the end I have to find in India. And once we can create a synthesis between the pagan and the awakened, the enlightened being, we have the whole man. You can call that my philosophy: the philosophy of the whole man. Nothing has...
