OSHO Never born Never Died

“Rajneesh” Chandra Mohan Jain (Hindi: रजनीश चन्द्र मोहन जैन) (December 11, 1931 – January 19, 1990), also known as Acharya Rajneesh from the 1960s onwards, calling himself Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh during the 1970s and 1980s and taking the name Osho in 1989, was an Indian mystic and spiritual teacher.

Osho’s syncretic teachings emphasise the importance of meditation, awareness, love, celebration, creativityhumour – qualities that in his view are suppressed by adherence to static belief systems, religious tradition and socialisation. His teachings have had a notable impact on Western New Age thought,^[1][2]

Love and Hate …

Love and Hate

“Love and hate are just two sides of the same coin. But with love something very drastic has happened. It is unimaginable how this drastic step was taken by people who had all the good intentions in the world. You may never have even suspected what has destroyed love. It is the continuous teaching of love that has destroyed it. Hate is still pure – love is not.”

 

~ Osho

“Language is for Non-Lovers, those who are not in Love. 
For Lovers, Silence is enough Language. Without saying anything, They go on speaking.” 

~ Osho

“With the disappearance of the mind, disappears the self. Then there is only a certain quality of awareness, with no ‘I’ in it. At the most you can call it something similar to ‘am-ness,’ but not ‘I-ness.’ To be even more exact, it is ‘is-ness’ because even in am-ness some shadow of the ‘I’ is still there. The moment you know its is-ness, it has become universal.”

~ Osho 

Make it a point: 
whatsoever — sadness, anger 
whatsoever — depression, unhappiness-
be with it 

And you will suddenly become surprised that 
if you remain with sadness, 
sadness changes into a beautiful thing, 
sadness becomes a depth. 

If you remain with anger, not thinking about,
just being with, anger is transformed; 
it becomes forgiveness. 

~ Osho ~

Relax

Don’t seek, don’t search, don’t ask, don’t knock, don’t demand – relax. If you relax, it comes. If you relax, it is there. If you relax, you start vibrating with it.

– Osho ~

Love <3

I love, because my love is not dependent on the object of love.
My love is dependent on my state of being. So whether
the other person changes, becomes different, friend turns into a foe, does not matter, because my love was never dependent
on the other person. My love is my state of being.
I simply love.

~ Osho ~

Sadness has its own beauty.It has tremendous depth,

Sadness has its own beauty.

It has tremendous depth, it has its own calmness, quietness, softness.

It is a beautifull experience. So don’t try to avoid it.

If you avoid it, you are avoiding the door to silence.

Enjoy it, receive it with open hands, embrace it.

The more you are welcoming, the sooner 

sadness will start changing into silence.

~Osho ~

Master

To seek a master is to seek somebody in whom you can recognize, somebody who becomes the proof ~ in whose being you can taste something of the divine; in whose eyes you can glimpse and see something of the divine; in whose love you can feel something being showered; in whose song you can feel, you can know beyond doubt, that the infinite is flowing. The master is nothing but a reed, a flute ~ an empty flute, an emptiness. God flows through him. If you can recognize it, already you yourself have become one with it. Now others can recognize it in you and it can spread.

~ Osho ~

I love, becaus…

I love,
because my love
is not dependent
on the object of love.
My love is dependent
on my state of being.
So whether
the other person changes,
becomes different,
friend turns into a foe,
does not matter,
because my love
was never dependent
on the other person.
My love
is my state of being.
I simply love.

~ Osho ~

Life is only an…

Life is only an opportunity to grow, to be, to bloom. Life in itself is empty; unless you are creative you will not be able to fill it with fullfilment. You have a song in your heart to be sung and you have a dance to be danced.

You are not to …

Osho („Rajneesh“ Chandra Mohan Jain) (Photo credit: Wikipedia)

You are not to do anything to be happy. In fact you have done too much to become unhappy. If you want to be unhappy, do too much. If you want to be happy, allow things, allow things to be. Rest, relax, and be in a letgo. Letgo is the secret of life. When you are in a letgo many things, millions of things, start happening. They were already happening but you were never aware. ~ Osho

“This is the whole art of life! You enjoy your youth, and when you become old you enjoy your old age. Old age has its own beauties; no young man can have those beauties. Youth is shallow; full of energy but shallow.

Old age is not so full of energy, but things are settling and depth is arising. If you miss your youth, you will miss your old age also — remember. So I am not saying become old while you are young.

I am saying be whatsoever you are; let that moment be your totality. When a child, be a child; never enforce your wisdom on any child because that is a crippling thing. Don’t try to make a child old before he is old, don’t crush him.”

~ Osho

“”Friendship has a coolness in it. Love has heat, hence it goes high, low; sometimes everything is beautiful and sometimes everything is ugly. Love changes. Friendship has a more eternal quality to it; it doesn’t change. Let love be the first step and friendship the climax.” ~ Osho

Consciousness

“When you see a flower, let your whole being become the eye.
When you look at a flower, do not think.
Let the total consciousness either see or hear or smell or taste or touch.
Then invisible becomes visible.”
~ Osho

Which One?

Remember, whenever you have two things, two alternatives, choose the new one, choose the harder, choose the one in which more awareness will be needed. At the cost of efficiency always choose awareness, and you will create the situation in which meditation will become possible. These are all just situations. Meditation will happen.

I am not saying that just by doing them you will get to meditation — but they will be helpful. They will create the necessary situation in you without which meditation cannot happen. Be less efficient but more creative. Let that be the motive. Don’t be bothered toomuc h about utilitarian ends.

Rather, constantly remember that you are not here in life to become a commodity; you are not here to become an utility, that is below dignity;. you are not here just to become more and more efficient — you are here to become more and more alive; you are here to become more and more intelligent; you are here to become more and more happy, ecstatically happy. But that is totally different from the ways of the mind. ~Osho

I WANT YOU TO LOVE YOURSELF, BECAUSE ONLY THROUGH THAT LOVE DOES PEACE DESCEND. I want you to accept yourself in toto, as you are. Not that that means there will be no growth: in fact, ONCE YOU ACCEPT YOURSELF AS YOU ARE, A GREAT EXPLOSION HAPPENS — because the energy that gets involved in conflict is released, and that energy is available for you. THAT MAKES YOU STRONG, that makes you more intelligent, that makes you more alert, that makes you more alive, that creates a soul in you. ~ Osho

Alive

God is alive when you are alive.
If you are not alive,
how can your God be alive?
Your God is yours.
If you are dead, your God is dead;
if you are alive, your God is alive.
Your God cannot be more than you,
because your God is your innermost core of being.
So if you want to know what God is,
become more alive.
If you want to know what God is,
become more divine.
If you want to know what God is,
then don’t try to
know — try to feel.
He comes through the door of the heart.
Osho ♥

Jealousy

Awareness is fire; it burns all that is wrong in you. It burns your ego. It burns your greed, it burns your possessiveness, it burns your jealousy ~ it burns all that is wrong and negative, and it enhances all that is beautiful, graceful, divine.
That awareness is my teaching. Never fight with ego, anger ~ all those enemies that the religions have been telling you, “Fight with them, crush them, kill them. You cannot kill them, you cannot crush them, you cannot fight with them; all that you can do is just be aware of them. And the moment you are aware, they are gone. In the light, the darkness simply disappears. ~ Osho
