OSHO VISION

The moment you drop all your expectations, the whole of life becomes a gift of God.

A man of awareness becomes courageous enough to accept the changing phenomena. In that very acceptance is bliss; then all is good, then you are never frustrated because in the first place you never asked anything. Jesus says, "Ask and it shall be given to you." He must be talking to very immature people; people were immature in those days. I say to you, "Ask and it shall never be given to you. Ask and you are asking for trouble. Don't ask and it shall be given to you."

Great blessings come to people who don't ask, because then everything is a blessing. If some stranger on the street gives you a rose flower -- a stranger you have never known before, you have never even been introduced... he simply smiles and gives a rose flower to you and walks on, not even waiting for a thank you -- how much joy that simple rose flower brings to you! But you will not be surprised if your wife gives you a rose flower -- you will not, because you were expecting. If your friend gives you a rose flower you will not be surprised, you will not feel thankful; you will say, "So what?" It is the expectation that destroys your gratitude. But with a stranger, because you were not expecting, a simple rose flower becomes such a beautiful gift.

The moment you drop all your expectations, the whole of life becomes a gift of God.

- Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh (Osho)

OSHO VISION

At the very core of your being.
No mirror can help, no scripture can help,
All the Buddhas can only indicate the way
But no Buddha can go with you there.

I can show you the way
But you will have to follow,
You will have to do it on you own.'

Once you know your original face
A great joy arises, great bliss is born.
Suddenly you see that you are not accidental
You are appointed by god, that you are carrying
Some important message for existence,
That you are needed
That you are fulfilling a certain deep purpose
In this great scheme of things
You are fulfilling
Some intrinsic, organic utility
That gives great peace, great joy.

OSHO VISION

Means protector.
Or if; you really want
to be very close to the truth
Then godliness is our protection.
We are continuously protected by divine energy
In every possible way, because we are part of it.
No man is an island -- separate, apart.
We are part of the whole,
Intrinsic part of the whole.
The whole takes every care
Just we have to learn to trust.
The more we trust
The more care flows from the whole.
The more we distrust
We stop the care that was flowing towards us.
Our distrust closes us, our trust opens us.
If we distrust we live in fear
And we live in darkness and we live in misery.
If we trust we live in joy, we live in bliss
We live in light; life becomes
A non-serious affair, it becomes laughter.
Then it has a beauty and tremendous grandeur
And utter splendor, indescribable in words
Inexpressible in language --
It can only be experienced.

OSHO VISION

Sannyas is a benediction: the beginning of a true and authentic life, the beginning of sincerity, the birth of truth in you. People live in lies. They have lived so long in lies that they themselves have become lies. People have only false faces, masks; they have completely forgotten their original face, hence there is so much misery. With the original face all misery disappears.

Sannyas is nothing but an effort to penetrate all the masks, to dig for the original face. Once the original face is known there is benediction, there is a great joy, there is immense peace, blissfulness. That is the meaning of vardan.

To know life in its truth is a blessing; to know life as a lie is a misery. To live in lies is to live in hell. Lies are many, truth is one. To attain to that one is to enter paradise. Paradise, heaven or hell, are not geographical situations, not there somewhere in the space; they are inner psychological states. It just depends on knowing the knack of it, and you can turn the hell into heaven . . . just as if it is done by magic. The magic, the secret of the magic, is to be authentically true, vulnerable, open, not hiding, not hiding from anybody. It needs courage and guts, but once you start feeling the joy of it things become easy; every day things become more and more easy. One day one is suddenly relaxed. In that relaxation the ego disappears. That is benediction, that is vardan!

OSHO VISION

God is the ultimate end.
You can consecrate yourself
Out of joy only, out of bliss only
Then only you will not use god as a means,
There is no question of using god.
You are simply surrendering to him because
He has given you so much -- it is out of gratitude
It is out of thankfulness.
You are not asking anything
You are not desiring anything.
He has already given so much --
What can we desire?

A real religious person has no desire
To be fulfilled from god: he surrenders
In joy, in gratitude.
And that's my whole approach here
That's why I don't want to believe in god.
I want to love, to live, to laugh
To enjoy life so totally that
Out of that very enjoyment
You start becoming aware
Of the great gift that existence has given to you.
And then the natural outcome is that
A thankful starts arising out of your heart
Out of the very depths of your being --
It is not something in the head
It is not cultivated by the priests.
One cannot avoid it, it is inevitable.
If you have tasted life in its totality
If you are drunk with life.

OSHO VISION

Life has to be lived in all its dimensions, in all its richness, variety; only then does a symphony arise

Meditation is self-study. And that is the central core of one’s whole life: if one can become rooted in meditation then all else becomes a blessing, everything starts becoming as it should be. There is never any frustration in life: fulfilment comes of its own accord. But if meditation is missing then we can go on doing all that we can do but nothing really happens – all is futile.

And you have a very prayerful heart . . . use it! So meditate, pray, think more of the inner and less of the outer. The outer has to be given attention but it should not become predominant. Not that one has to renounce it; nothing has to be renounced. Life has to be lived in all its dimensions, in all its richness, variety; only then does a symphony arise. Otherwise people become monotonous. The worldly people are monotonous because the inner is lacking, and the other-worldly are monotonous because the outer is lacking, and the music needs both: it needs sound and silence both. Sound is supplied by the outer and silence is supplied by the inner. When the inner silence and the outer sound meet, a great symphony arises in one’s being. That is religiousness.

But the inner is more important, that has to be remembered; never sacrifice the inner for the outer. If there is ever any choice, sacrifice the outer for the inner but never otherwise, and you will never be a loser.

And sometimes when you cannot understand something, the natural tendency is to criticize it. It is very difficult for a man to say, ‘I don’t understand so I will not assert anything for or against.’ That is very difficult, that needs great integrity to be able to say, ‘I don’t understand certain things so I will keep mum. I will say something only when I understand.’ But that integrity is not easily available.

OSHO VISION

This is a new journey. It is towards this that you have been travelling really; now travelling by and by will disappear. Unconsciously you have been groping towards this. You may not have deliberately thought about it, you may not have been conscious of what you were really searching for.

All travellers are basically in search of something – they don’t know what. They go on moving from one place to another, thinking that somewhere something will happen. It can’t happen that way because it is not a question of changing places, it is a question of changing spaces. It is an inner question. Places are outside, spaces are inside. But they look alike and the words can be very confusing.

The real search is for the inner journey but we go on journeying from one country to another, from one city to another, from one hotel to another. And they all are becoming so alike that really there is no point any more – moving from one intercontinental hotel to another intercontinental hotel – it is the same. The world has become very small; now it is not worth travelling, all is known about it. There are small differences which don’t mean much. And this is good in a way because in the future the traveller will not have anything to go outside for; he will have to go inside. Every traveller will have to go inside, the outer is finished. Through scientific technology it has no more any meaning.

And sometimes things seen on the screen, on the TV screen, on the movie screen, are far more beautiful than when you actually go and see them, because photography can do miracles. So really, when you see the Himalayas in the film and then you go to the real Himalayas, they look a little paler, they are not so colourful. They simply look as if they have been copying the film, imitating the film.

Once it happened that a painter painted a picture of some beautiful mountains. A woman came to him; she wanted to appreciate his work so she said ‘This morning I went to the mountains and they were exactly like your painting.’ The painter said ‘Yes, sometimes nature imitates art.’

This is happening! So the outer journey is finished, at least your outer journey is finished. Now a far deeper, a far more valuable journey starts with your sannyas. It is going to be a turning point in your life. You will go on moving – I am all for movement – but now you will go in a totally different dimension, diametrically opposite to the one you have been accustomed to . . .

OSHO VISION

All those fears are just baseless. Death has never happened in the world; how can it happen to you? Death is the greatest myth: nobody has ever died and nobody can die. Even if you try, you cannot. There is no way to die. Suicide is just an exercise in deceiving oneself But nobody ever dies. And even when illness, disease happens, it never happens to you really. You are always the watcher, you are always the witness; you are always far away and transcendental to it. You are never inside it; otherwise who is it who is knowing about the headache? The body is paralysed but one is outside it; otherwise who will know about it? No disease, no illness, no death – that is the truth of life. We are unnecessarily worried and unnecessarily afraid.

OSHO VISION

The only use of life is to transcend time.
Life is an opportunity
In time, to transcend time;
A ladder has to be created.
Time moves horizontally,
Just like an alphabet, a b c,
Linear, in one line.
Transcendence is vertical,
It is like a ladder, not linear --
You go higher or deeper
Which ultimately means the same.
If you go higher, you go deeper
If you go deeper, you go higher
But you start moving in a totally new dimension.
You are no more moving horizontally
You are moving vertically.
That movement happens through meditation
Mediation is the ladder I am talking about.
It takes you beyond time and suddenly
Great youthfulness explodes in you.

OSHO VISION

Love is never a dormant thing; it is always flowing. The moment love is dormant it dies. It can live only in the flow. It can live only as growth, it can live only as movement; movement is very intrinsic to it. And because people all over the world have tried again and again to make love a possession, they have killed it. You cannot possess it. A thing can be possessed, a flow cannot be possessed. A dormant, stagnant thing can be possessed, but a riverlike flow – how can you possess it? It is a process: it goes on moving, it goes on changing.

The chang is so intrinsic in love that the moment we decide to cling to it, we start suffocating it, we start killing it. Parents kill the quality of love when they cling to their children; and when they teach the children to cling to them, then even more calamity. Then husbands and wives cling to each to each other and try to possess each other. Then friends, and everywhere, in all relationships, the whole effort is to make unmovable something which is intricsically movement. This effort is bound to fail, and because it fails love brings frustration. If love is allowed to flow then love will bring the greatest fulfilment possible.

So start teaching him from the very beginning that love has to remain a process, it always has to remain growing. It is unpredictable: we cannot say anything about where it will be tomorrow, how it will be, what it will be. Nothing can be said about tomorrow. Tomorrow will bring its own surprises, and we have to relax with it. Whatsoever it brings as a gift has to be thankfully accepted.

OSHO VISION

Bliss is the door to the divine.
It is only through bliss what we can
Create a bridge, between us and the ultimate.
Never try to approach god through misery --
And that's how people try:
They go on crying and weeping in deep anguish,
They remember god only
When they are in utter misery.
Whenever life is going good, who cares about god?
But those are the real moments to remember god
When life is going good.
Almost everybody thinks once in a while
Of religion, meditation, prayer, god,
But almost at the wrong time:
When you are in some misery.
A beloved has died - then you remember
But not while making love
And the right moment is while making love.
But that is the time
We don't bother at all about god.
Even if he knocks on the door, we won't open;
We will tell him, 'Wait! Don't disturb!
Leave us alone, Don't you have any sense?
Is this the time to disturb, to interfere?'
But those are the moments
When you are enjoying, flowing, flowering
When you are in a dance -- right moments
When just a little bit of remembering
And the door can be open unto you.

OSHO VISION

The touch of eternity is youthfulness.
Then you know that you belong to the eternal.
The experience of the eternal
Is the experience of god. And these are
The only two possibilities available for man:
Either he moves in time,
Then he moves horizontally, linear --
That is the way of the mind,
Time is the way of the mind.
Or, one moves vertically --
That is the way of no-mind,
Timelessness it the way of no-mind.
And meditation is nothing but an art
Of how to take a jump from mind to no-mind.
From horizontal to the vertical.

It is the greatest quantum leap possible
It is the most radical phenomenon;
Just a glimpse of it and you are full of god
Just a glimpse of it and you are not more the same.
And you will never be the same again.
You will live in the same world
But you will live out of it.
You will be in the world
But the world will not be in you.
That's what sannyas is all about:
Being in the world yet not of it.

OSHO VISION

The enquiry into truth
Is the most blissful activity of life
Because it is only through realizing the truth
That one becomes capable
Of dropping all the miseries.
Miseries are shadows of lies.
We live in lies, hence we are miserable.
Nobody wants to be miserable
But nobody wants to drop his lies.
And people don't see
The relationship between the two;
There is a cause and effect relationship.
For example the greatest lie of your life
Everybody's life, is the ego
And it poisons your whole life.
Nobody wants to be miserable
Yet everybody wants to protect his ego.
Unless one sees this contradiction
One will never be able to get rid of miseries.
You want to get rid of the effect
But you go on nursing the cause
You go on watering the tree
And you are against the fruits!

The fruits are bitter
But you don't see the relationship
That if you stop watering the tree
The fruits will disappear on their own accord.
Just as lies are causes of misery
Truth is the cause of bliss.
Once you know what truth is,
Your whole life becomes blissful.
Each moment a moment of rejoicing, a moment of celebration.

OSHO VISION

God's door - bliss is god's door.
And once you have entered into bliss
You live in the city of gods.
You can call it paradise, the garden of Eden -
These are different names of the same thing.
The thing that is referred by
So many different names is bliss.

Man has lost track
He has lost completely who he is
From where he comes, where he is going.
He lives without an identity
But to live without an identity is difficult
So he creates false identities:
A name, an address -- and he believes in them that
This is what I am.' You are not that.
You live on the earth but
You belong to the city of gods
You belong to the beyond.
And the beyond is always ready to welcome you
But you keep your back towards it and
You go on rushing, running after trivia,
Mundane things: money, power, prestige.
If you don't get them you are miserable

If you get them then too you are miserable.
Whether you fail or succeed
You fail all the same.
The only victorious person is one
Who enters within his being and comes to know
'Who am I' - he has entered into paradise again,
He regains paradise lost.

Meditation is the only way
To enter into your own being; just as mind
Is the only way to enter into the world
Meditation is the only way
To enter into your own self.
And paradise is not outside you;
It is within you.

Walk as if you are not walking,
stand as if you are not standing,
sit as if you are not sitting --
and then
you will begin to feel something completely new
arising within you.
This is the real one.
The false you walks, stands and sits
and the real you just remains in suchness.
FEEL THIS -- THIS VERY MOMENT,
because there is no need to postpone it,
and if you postpone it you postpone it for ever
because there is no tomorrow for the real one,
there is no there for it,
it is always HERE AND NOW.

Man is free to decide, but not free not to decide -
because not to decide is to decide,
to waver is to decide,
to postpone and evade decision is to decide.
There is no escape:
one must say yes or no.
And there are a thousand ways of saying no,
only one way of saying yes,
ant no way of not saying anything at all.
This is the human situation
and the seeker of truth must be aware of it
otherwise life is wasted unnecessarily.

A single moment lost cannot be regained --
аnt we have wasted so many lives --
so decide to decide,
and decide to transform and transcend.
With the decision comes crystallization
and then one is ready to take the jump into the unknown.

Do not look for results in meditation - this is anobstruction.
Do not seek to repeat any meditative experience,

OSHO VISION

Love is sweet, and when one is in love sweetness wells up. When one becomes love then one is just sweetness from one end to another. In a love relationship sweetness comes and goes, and when sweetness goes it leaves bitterness behind. A love relationship is a rhythm between sweet and bitter. A love relationship is really a relationship of love-hatred: coming closer, going away, coming closer, going away.

But to become love is totally different. By 'one becomes love' I mean there is no more a relationship; it simply becomes your state. In that state there is no possibility of any bitterness arising. And only that sweetness will satisfy, will fulfil.

Love, ordinary love, only gives glimpses of it. In fact it never satisfies; on the contrary it makes more thirst, it creates more longing. Instead of creating contentment it creates a great fire of discontentment, because you have seen something but it comes and goes. You have seen the light but again there is darkness. If you had not seen the light there would have not been so much trouble; you would have relaxed with darkness, you would have accepted it as life. Those few dew-drops of love cannot allow you to accept darkness as the truth. But they are just dew-drops, and one can be fulfilled only when oceanic love arises.
