Osho

... simply forgets that he had come to push. Rather, just coming near you he starts feeling overpowered by you. That's how even a single man can become so powerful that the whole society, the whole history, cannot push him a single inch. That's how a Buddha exists, a Jesus exists. You can kill a Jesus but you cannot push him. You can destroy his body, but you cannot push him a single inch. Not that he is...

... man, who comes to this state; they call him MAST, they call him the madman. He looks at you without looking at you. He roams around not knowing where he is going. He talks nonsense. He cannot keep a relevant coherence in his talk. One word and then a gap; then another word absolutely unrelated; one sentence, then another sentence not connected at all - no coherence, all consistency is lost. He...

.... Remember this distinction. A table exists, a house exists - but God IS; because a table can go into nonexistence, a house can go into nonexistence, but the God cannot. So it is not good to say that God exists; God simply is. It cannot go into nonexistence. It is pure isness. This is Mahamudra. All that exists has disappeared, only isness remains. The body has disappeared, it existed. The mind has...
...." But my father said, "I am not feeling like eating. I am feeling so good that I don't want to disturb my body by anything; I simply want to sit and look at the sky. Don't be worried - you go and eat" - and she was so hungry that she ate before my father. This weight she had been carrying - that for the whole of her life she never ate before my father, and on the last day she did. As...

... she finished, my father came in and she brought his food: he took one bite and said, "My body doesn't feel to take anything." Within half an hour he was gone; his body came home that night - he came home in that car that Laxmi had been trying to bring. But my mother just said the other day, "Relieve me of this pain because this hurts. That last day I completely forgot that he has to...
.... You may have seen that a dead body floats to the surface, a corpse will float on water. Ask the corpse, "What trick did you learn? When you were alive you drowned; dead, you are afloat!" The corpse is not afraid: how can the river drown it? It is not the nature of water to drown anything, water lifts things up. This is why in water weight decreases. In water you can lift up and carry a man...

... intelligence still hasn't become pure?" So meat-eaters have arguments. They say, "Your intelligence becomes weak because you don't get the right proteins, the right vitamins, enough energy. Your body is weakening - you will not live long. Your strength is decreasing." In America one hears every day, sees in the papers, that some ninety year old man has married. You are shocked. You say, "...

... with. What can I do with it? I have come to earn some other prize. That prize is given only by the divine, no one else can give it. That prize is of the ecstasy of witnessing. It is of sat-chit-anand, truth-consciousness-bliss. You keep your Nobel prize. Give it to children to play with. It is a toy." There is no prize in this world comparable to the prize of inner bliss. If the body is gone...
... KEEPS CROPPING UP IN THE BIBLE, AS WELL. YOU ARE STRONGLY FOR WHAT YOU CALL DEATH CONTROL -- EUTHANASIA, ISN'T THAT THE ENGLISH WORD? -- DEATH CONTROL. A MAN HAS THE RIGHT TO GO TO THE MEDICAL BOARD TO BE FREED FROM HIS BODY, THIS SORT OF THING. A Yes. Q: SO THAT'S WHY I'D LIKE TO KEEP TO THIS TOPIC. ALSO, YOUR FIRST ENLIGHTENMENT STARTED WITH A.... A: You are not keeping to any topic at all. I am...

... serve, whatsoever the condition. If the person is still capable of living a meaningful life, if he is still wanting to live, if he has still the lust for life, help him. But if a person has nothing to live for and he is telling you that it is time for him to be freed from this body.... Q: WELL, HE MAY HAVE REGRETTED IT NEXT DAY. (BOTH JOURNALISTS CONTINUE TO TALK SIMULTANEOUSLY....) A: You go on...

... importance. But now I am completely satisfied. Too much! Q: YOU'RE NOT A VERY HEALTHY MAN THESE DAYS, ARE YOU? A: I am not. My body is fragile. My back is bad. Q: WILL YOU HAVE TO UNDERGO ANOTHER OPERATION, OR...? A: Every possibility is always there, because I have allergies to many things: dust, perfume, smoke. Q: HAS IT BECOME WORSE FROM THE TIME YOU CAME HERE, OR HAS IT IMPROVED? A: No, it has improved...
... inwards. This inward movement I call meditation. You have to take three simple steps for this inward movement, and the fourth happens on its own accord. The first step is observing all your activities; that is your body and its acts -- walking, chopping wood, drawing water from the well. Remain a witness. Don't do it like a robot. Q:* MAY I INTERRUPT? A:* No. No interruption. Second, when you have...

... become capable of watching and witnessing your body and its activities, then you can take the second step: watch the activities of your mind -- thoughts, dreams, imagination. Just remain a witness, as if you are standing by the side of the road and a procession of thoughts is passing on the road. You are not part of it. You are just a mirror reflecting, without any judgment -- because mirror has no...

... concerned with the body, the second with the mind, the third with the heart. And when you become capable of watching the third too, the fourth happens on its own accord. Suddenly a quantum leap and you are standing exactly at the very center of your being, where there is nothing to be aware of. Awareness is aware of itself, consciousness if conscious of itself. And this is the moment of ultimate ecstasy...
... meditation. You can do it first sitting by his side and he can watch. Then you do it and he can participate with you. That will help his heart too, and it will help something more than the body. It is most probable that he will become interested in meditation now. After a heart attack people become interested because death has knocked at the door and they have tasted something of death. Now they can never...
... without the instrumentality of your senses. The senses are closed - they are not aware of the world beyond you; now you are within your cells, within your body, but still you can create you own worlds. This creation of your own worlds in dreams becomes possible because your mind is a conditioning of everything you have known, you have felt; everything has been accumulated in it. It is an accumulation...
... began to melt. They were just salt; their bodies were made of salt." In a way it is not inconceivable. Our bodies are made of ocean water, they are salty. Your body is seventy-five percent water - seventy-five percent! - and the water is just the same as the water which is found in oceans. The proportion of salt in your bodies is the same as it is in the ocean water, because man is just a...
..., a disciple. If, because of my love, I call you my friend that does not give you the permission to start calling me your friend. The distance between our consciousnesses is infinite. I am calling you from a sunlit peak. And you are in a dark valley. And anyway Maneesha, neither do I have any personality nor any personal life. Reduced to its simplest: I talk to you twice if my body allows. Once in a...
... somehow sentences make themselves, somehow the whole appears to have some interconnection, but I am not making any effort. Even if people find contradictions, it is perfectly good, because only a very ordinary knowledgeable person is concerned about consistency. A man who is speaking, using speech as a means to convey not meaning but poetry, not meaning but some significance, not meaning but some...
