“”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

Which One?

Image via Wikipedia

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

Mind

“The mind is a great servant, a great computer. Use it, but remember that it should not overpower you. Remember that you should remain capable of being aware, that it should not possess you in to, that it should not become all and all, that a door should be left open from where you can come out of the robot. That opening of the door is called meditation.” ~ Osho

Composer

The moment your heart opens towards me, I am with you wherever you are.~OSHO

L i f e

A comfortable, convenient life is not a real life —

the more comfortable, the less alive.

The most comfortable life is in the grave.

If you are alive there is inconvenience.

If you are alive there are challenges.

If you are alive then every moment you have to face reality, encounter reality.

Every moment you have to be ready to change and to move.

Reality has no security and that is its beauty.

Life has no security and that is its beauty.

Because there is no security, there is adventure.

Because the future is unknown,

nobody knows what is going to happen the next moment.

That’s why there is challenge, growth, adventure.

If you miss adventure, you miss all.

If your life is not that of an adventure, of a search into the unknown,

then you are living in vain. ~ Osho

Closing the Chapters

“Don’t be unnecessarily burdened by the past. Go on closing the chapters that you have read; there is no need to go back again and again. And never judge anything of the past from the new perspective that is arriving, because the new is new, incomparably new and the old was right in its own context, and the new is right in its own context, and they are incomparable”~Osho

Witness

“A witness is not a judge.

A witness is only a mirror.

It shows you clearly the situation, and it gives you a spontaneous response.” ~ Osho

Individual

“The new man will live out of meditation, out of consciousness, out of his own inner light. The new man will be an individual.” ~ Osho

Home

“Your home is within You.

And you are not to search for it.

You are Your home.” ~ Osho

LoVe

Nothing else can fulfill that great need.” ~ Osho

Don’t try to understand love.

Move into love.

Then you will know and that knowing will come out of your experiencing” ~ Osho

Morality

“There is an intrinsic criterion to be understood:

That which makes you happier is good.

That which makes you blissful is the only morality.” ~Osho

Seed

Sin

Approach

Meditation, Sex & You

Meditation is the secretmost method of going beyond the body and all that the body contains. Sex is part of your body, your biology, it is not part of your consciousness. The moment you start rising up in your consciousness, sex is left far behind. Naturally, at the age of thirty-one one starts wondering, “Something seems to have gone wrong…. Nothing has gone wrong, everything has gone right. You should feel blessed that you are free from the greatest imprisonment of your being. ~OSHO

Being

“I would like you to be known as separate from the crowds, not by anything outer, but just by your very being, your silence, your peace.” ~ Osho

Imagination!

“By its very nature, existence cannot have any boundary. That’s why I’m saying skies upon skies are available for your flight. Don’t be content easily.

Those who remain content easily remain small; small are their joys, small are their ecstasies, small are their silences, small is their being. But there is no need !

This smallness is your own imposition upon your freedom, upon your unlimited possibilities, upon your unlimited potential. ~ Osho
