Osho

.... He knows it. When he is raising his leg, he knows it. When he raises his hand, he knows it. When he moves his head, he knows it. There is no movement of the body, and no movement of the mind without being conscious of it. So Buddha has said... and he was one of those most deeply gone into the path of knowing, one who has touched the ultimate on the path of knowing, the path of awareness. He has...

... become suddenly conscious. Your whole mind has gone mad; your house is on fire. You become suddenly aware, it is an emergency. You cannot fall asleep. Awareness will happen in this situation. And in the third stage, when we are hitting the kundalini with "hoo".... Kundalini is the reservoir or all our energies. If this reservoir is hit, the energy begins to spread in ripples all over the body...

.... It goes on spreading. Every fiber, every cell of the body becomes more alive, vitalized; more energy is given to it. Every cell becomes more aware and the whole body feels a sudden rush of awareness. In that rush of awareness you cannot be unconscious. These three steps are yogic steps to create a situation in which consciousness becomes an automatic result. And then in the fourth you just wait...

... to create your mind, your body, your soul around this new center. Sannyas must now become your self. Do, live, be, but now from this new center. And soon, if you continue in your effort, in your awareness, you will come to a point where the transformation, the mutation happens - where you are lost forever and only the divine remains.

... consciousness. Ordinarily the mind is always conscious of pain, never conscious of bliss. If you have a headache you are conscious of it. When you don't have a headache you are not conscious of the well-being of the head. When the body hurts you are conscious of it, but when the body is perfectly healthy you are not conscious of the health. This is the root cause of why we feel so miserable: our whole...

... not be conscious; it will be difficult to survive. So nature has made it very essential and inevitable that you have to be conscious of the pain. But nature has no built-in mechanism to make you conscious of pleasure, joy, bliss. That has to be learned, that has to be worked out. That is an art. From this moment start becoming aware of things which are not natural. For example, your body is feeling...

... perfectly healthy: sit silently, become conscious of it. Enjoy the well-being. Nothing is wrong - enjoy it! Make a deliberate effort to be conscious of it. You have eaten well and the body is satisfied, contented; become conscious of it. When you are hungry, nature makes you conscious, but nature has no system to make you conscious of when you are satiated; that has to be grown. Nature need not grow it...

... cannot die - death cannot happen. Only the body dies and the consciousness continues. It changes houses, it changes old garments for new. The journey is eternal. There are only two things which arc the greatest illusions in the world: one is the ego and the other is death. And both are joined together, in fact, are two aspects of the same coin. It is because of the ego that the other illusion of death...
... her mind becomes very active, and this disturbs her for the rest of the day. Osho checks her energy.] Do one thing: go to bed a little later - twelve - and everything will settle. Don't go to bed before twelve; go at twelve and there will be no problem. You aregoing a little too early for your time. Everybody has its own clock, and if you go according to the body clock, everything feels smooth...

... sleep, you get up fresh, clear-cut, but if you go to sleep again, even for a few minutes, then you will never feel good the whole day. Something will remain lingering, because you started a process again which remained incomplete. And the body is a mechanism; one has to be very alert about the mechanism. My feeling about your body is that your energy is the night energy. There are morning people and...

... they look! If you look deep into their eyes they look as if they are made of stones, stony. Their faces are inhuman; they have been dehumanised. They have become a public thing. They are exposed to the cameras. Their body is no more a sacred phenomenon. It is not being shared in love - it has become a commodity; it is a thing. Something has died. All those pornographic pictures are ugly: I have never...

... infinities are good to touch again and again. Slowly slowly you will lose all idea of your size, and that is truth. The body has size, shape, form; we are formless. We are the smallest of the small and the biggest of the big. That is our true identity. So from tonight start this deliberately and joyously, and after two months report to me.

... house and you don't throw it outside so it stinks and when it becomes too much you are disturbed. Wherever you move it is always there and everywhere you come across it. It has to be thrown! The mind creates a certain garbage just as the body does - it is part of life. You eat something: a part of it is digested - becomes your blood, your bones, your flesh, your marrow - but ninety percent of it is...

... just rubbish that has to be thrown out. If you don't throw it you will accumulate it in your stomach and then you will be creating poison for your body. That's what happens when somebody is too constipated, he starts creating toxins in the body; then the poison will circulate in the blood. The same food that was going to be nourishment will become a deathly poison... the same food! So one has to go...

... will go on revolving. That's why you know that the content is not important: the content is not important. When somebody is constipated it is not that he is holding gold in his stomach - it is just rubbish, excreta. And that's what goes on moving in the mind: excreta. One has to understand the process: just as you cleanse your body, you cleanse your intestines, just as everyday you throw the excreta...

... out of the bodY and that keeps you healthy, in the same way mind needs tO be cleansed every day. So this will help you - one hour in the morning, one hour in the afternoon. First many thoughts will come, mm? After a few days you will see thoughts are not coming but only fragmentary words... not even thoughts but just words. Then by and by you will start feeling that even words are no more coming but...
... indication for you to learn let-go, to surrender, to just go with the river wherever it leads, to go with the wind like a dry leaf, with no resistance... effortlessly. joyously, dancingly. Dhyana means meditation, yogesh means god of the yoga: god of the yoga of meditation. Meditation is the ultimate yoga. All that is known in the name of yoga is just introductory. Those body postures, asanas, breathing...

... techniques, they are just to prepare the body. But many get lost in that; they think 'This is all', and their whole life is simply wasted in a kind of gymnastics. Good in itself, nothing wrong in it - health-giving, vitality-giving, prolongs the life - but ultimately it is meaningless. Whether you live seventy years or eighty years does not matter, if you lived in a nonsense way. It doesn't matter at all...

... whether you were healthy or ill. In the ultimate sense only one thing matters: whether you were able to know yourself or not; everything else is irrelevant. And I am not saying don't try to be healthy; be healthy, but remember that's not the goal. It is good to have a good body, a good vehicle is always good. But it is just like a car: you have a good car, perfectly good, but unless you have a direction...

... to go in even the most perfect engine is useless; it will take you into trouble. If you go on simply rushing here and there with no direction you will go mad. The body is a mechanism, a very beautiful mechanism; use it, but it has to be used for something higher than it. The meaning always comes from the higher. Unless you are committed to something bigger than you, you will remain meaningless. And...

... happens unconsciously. The body is given to you when you are born but the soul has to be earned; the soul is not given to you. Only the potentiality of it is given to you. You can become a soul, that's all. You may not become, you may become; it is just open. If you work hard you can become, if you don't work you will live a life of futility, meaninglessness, absurd... doing a thousand and one things...
... tree you will feel not only a subtle energy has moved; there has been a transfer between you and the tree, and on the gross level too. Your body is enriched... the tree is enriched. We have passed through all these states. Once we were trees animals, birds, mountains. We have passed through all these states so a part of us still responds to them very deeply. The past does not simply disappear. It...

... becomes part of the present. It is just as when a snake is crawling. It pulls its tail; the tail is not left. Again and again it is pulled back, pulled again and again towards the body. Time crawls in exactly the same way. The past that you think is gone, is never gone; it becomes part of your present. Your present carries your whole past, your whole history. And your whole history means the whole...

... experience I had of the spiritual was when I was thirteen. A book of yours 'Flight of the Alone to the Alone' describes the experience very well. Something descended on me and cut me from my body and soul and I felt completely alienated from the world. Since then my path seems to have been very asocial, very solitary, and often I have been in very much conflict with society and even with people I love or...

... the body but to the soul also. If you are taking a bath, wait. Just before you go under the shower, collect yourself, calm down. Then the water and the coolness of it will touch your very heart. It will not just be a shower of water; it will be a shower of grace. So always remember that you have a basic responsibility towards yourself. And if you are responsible in that way, you will be responsible...

... different possibilities - the male and the female mind. The male mind wants to win, to be aggressive, competitive; the will to power. Then there is the female mind, the receptive, passive mind; ready to lose. That's how it feels good. [The group leader] is right - you have a feminine mind, but it is perfectly good. It has nothing to do with the body. There are feminine minds in male bodies and male minds...

... happy because you know that unless you allowed him, he would not have been able. But he feels tremendously happy that he has become victorious and has defeated you completely. And look how he delights in it! So just delight in it and don't be worried. [The sannyasin answers: I think I will have to do Yoga and such things to develop my body.] You can develop your body, but there is no need to do it in...
... instincts - that is his body - is bound to fight against his intuition, which is his very soul. The man who cannot find peace with his body cannot hope to find peace with his soul, because to find peace with the body is simple; to find peace with the soul is more subtle, more invisible. Man is fighting with his full force against every inclination that existence has given to him - against his love...

... luminous body of tremendous rejoicing, of great promises fulfilled, of beautiful dreams become real. Those who had fallen in love with the man forgot the factuality, the factuality receded. They saw the man as he was spiritually. Their description of his beauty, his grace, his silence, is the description not of a fact but of a truth; not of a material body but of a spiritual being. Awakened, showering...

... light and love, showering flowers of joy, creating in the hearts of those who love him a new experience of peace, silence, serenity... their description is far more true than the description of those who could see only the body. Because the body is not your reality. Hence, Maneesha, it is not only with you. There have been thousands of people who have fallen in love with enlightened masters, they have...
... in itself is sort of dead. It is non-relational, impersonal, more intellectual - less grounded in the body, more conceptual. It does not take account of the whole person as a whole person. Analysis can never take account of the whole person. The very attitude of analysis is against the whole. Only synthetic attitudes can take account of the whole. So analysis itself is out of date - it has no...

... out, year in, year out. Then nobody can make you miserable. You go beyond misery. You are no more carrying a burden on your head. Surrender to life. How can you control it? It is absurd, the very effort is absurd. You can be possessed by life but you cannot possess life. Just think, one of my fingers is trying to control my whole body - it will be absurd. The finger can only be controlled by the...

... body. It is a part, and if it is surrendered to the body it will be happy, it will be healthy, nourished by the body. If it is fighting against the body and trying to control it, it will become ill. It will be paralysed; it will be cut off by the body. By its own struggle it will be cut off. So don't fight life - surrender to it. In the beginning it will be difficult because we have been brought up...
... consciousness, not in the body. Man has a body, monkeys have their own bodies, chimpanzees have their own bodies. Even Charles Darwin was very much puzzled: How can a monkey suddenly become a man? As far as we know, at least since ten thousand years, there has not been a single case when suddenly a monkey jumped out of a tree and became a man. If it has not happened in ten thousand years, it is inconceivable...

.... Because he was born in the West and had the attitude of a materialist, that caused the whole trouble. Otherwise he was saying something of immense importance. Evolution needs to be not of the body but of consciousness; then it becomes a spiritual progress. But Darwin had no idea of any spirit in man. To him, man was just the body and nothing more. I propound a theory of spiritual evolution, and that has...

... can try" - and people would try, but they were so heavy that it was difficult to pick them up. And they all have come - a dozen or more, all around - from the belly of the magician. He would show, half naked, the upper part of his body naked - he would show that the ball was moving upwards. You could see that the ball was moving upwards, that it was stuck in his throat, and you could see and...

... things the magician was saying. Finally came his body, and just the head remained. My principal said, "Don't cut his head!" I said, "Don't be worried. If he has cut him... what does it mean? If the police come, you will be caught." He said, "I was saying from the very beginning, no nonsense here, and now you are talking about police. I have always been suspicious of you...

... body, your mind, your heart, everything joins in it. You laugh as a single unitary whole. Three famous surgeons were bragging together over their morning coffee. The first said, "I grafted an arm onto a man and now he is a professional golfer." "That's nothing," said the second, "I grafted a leg onto a man and now he's one of the world's best long distance runners."...
..., "You are just treating the ear without bothering about the whole body. The ear is not something separate; perhaps the reason may be somewhere else." For a moment he remained silent, and then he said, "I cannot say anything more. I know only about the ear and I will treat the ear. You are right, logically, that perhaps the ear is the weakest point and the disease, which is somewhere else...

... was getting dark. But the miracle was that as the arrow hit the knee the migraine disappeared forever. That was the origin of acupuncture. So if you say to the acupuncturist, "My head is suffering very badly with continuous headache, migraine," he will not touch your head at all. He will work on some other point with just a small needle. They have found seven hundred points in the body...

... - and they have been as successful as anybody else. The body is a whole organism; the disease comes from the weakest point. Man has to be taken as a whole. This is going to be one of the foundations of pure science, to look at man as a whole, to look at nature as a whole, to look at the whole cosmos as one organic unity, and work out ways how this organic unity can function in harmony in the different...

... layers. We have the source from where the money can be brought here; just we have to work out the process. This whole Koregaon Park is going to be turned into the World Academy of Creative Science and Art. It will be also a research body, and it will also have its nursing homes, hospitals. Without such a thing happening, this century is going to see us finished. Dr. Masashi Murakoshi was concerned that...

... if I leave the body, then who is going to materialize the dream? They can work, but the whole dream... He wants a written promise from me, and I have given it. This is twice that I have given a written guarantee that I will not leave the body - first to Nostradamus, that I will not leave the body before 2001, and now again the same guarantee is being asked. I am giving it. That does not mean that...
