Life is fulfilled only when we start feeling at home with existence.
“Life is fulfilled only when we start feeling at home with existence. That’s what sannyas is all about: helping you to feel at home with existence, with the trees, with the earth, with the sky, with people, with animals. It is our universe and we are not foreigners to it.
Only this experience makes one religious.” – Osho
Meditation is a way of settling in oneself, at the innermost core of your being.
“Meditation is a way of settling in oneself, at the innermost core of your being. Once you have found the center of your existence, you will have found both the roots and the wings. The roots are in existence, making you a more integrated human being, an individual. And the wings are in the fragrance that is released by being in the contact with existence. The fragrance consists of freedom, love, compassion, authenticity, sincerity, a sense of humor, and a tremendous feeling of blissfulness.
The roots make you an individual, and the wings give you the freedom to love, to be creative, to share unconditionally the joy that you have found.” – Osho
The Body is your friend; it is not your enemy.
“The Body is your friend; it is not your enemy. Listen to it’s language, decode it’s language, and by and by, as you enter into the book of the Body and you turn it’s pages, you will become aware of the whole mystery of Life.” – Osho
A religious mind is a nonphilosophical mind
A religious mind is a nonphilosophical mind. A religious mind is an innocent, intelligent mind. The mirror is clear, the dust has not been gathered; and every day a continuous cleaning goes on. That’s what I call meditation.
The master functions as a friend
“The master functions as a friend. He holds your hand and takes you on the right path, helps you to open your eyes, helps you to be capable of transcending the mind. That’s when your third eye opens, when you start looking inwards. Once you are looking inwards, the master’s work is finished. Now it is up to you.” – Osho
Meditation is not an effort against the mind
“Meditation is not an effort against the mind. It is a way of understanding the mind. It is a very loving way of witnessing the mind…” – Osho
Let sannyas be the turning point
“Let sannyas be the turning point. That’s what sannyas is all about: a return journey. One starts moving inwards rather than moving outwards.” – Osho
Unless you know yourself
“Unless you know yourself exactly, you will not be able to know what is real and what is projection. You will also not be able to know about others. Self-knowledge becomes the door of all knowledge; it is the very base. Without that foundation, all knowledge is just knowledge in appearance; deep down it is ignorance.” – Osho
One falls in love with god there is infinite splendour
“Life remains a discontentment unless something bigger than you claims you; unless you become a part of something vast, you go on missing meaning. Meaning comes only in the context of something bigger than you. Alone, life is meaningless. Meaning is in love, and there is great meaning when you are in love with god. Even ordinary love gives meaning to life, significance to life, but when one falls in love with god there is infinite splendour.” – Osho
Do not ask whether God exists. Ask whether I exists.
“Begin with yourself. Do not ask whether God exists. Ask whether I exists. Do not ask whether love is an attribute of the divine. Ask whether love is an attribute of mine — whether “I” have ever loved. Do not ask about grace. Ask whether I have ever felt gratitude, because that is the pole which is just nearby, which is just a step from us. We can know it.” – Osho
Meditation is a flower
“Meditation is a flower, and compassion is its fragrance. Exactly like that it happens: the flower blooms and the fragrance spreads on the winds in all directions, to be carried to the very ends of the earth. But the basic thing is the blooming of the flower. – Osho”
All the dualities of the world are basically in the duality of the mind
“All the dualities of the world are basically in the duality of the mind, and below the duality is oneness of being. If you slip below, underneath the duality, you will find one – call it God, call it nirvana or whatsoever you like. If you go higher through the duality, you come to the many millionfold world.” – Osho
The forgotten language of ecstasy
“Religion is the science of how to find the forgotten language of ecstasy. Whenever you are in tune with existence, there is ecstasy, there is bliss, there is benediction.” ~ Osho
Love is the path and love is also the goal
“Love is the path and love is also the goal, the beginning and the end, the first step and the last step.
Love contains the whole of religion, but love has to be understood: it is not lust. It is not a desire to get something from anybody, on the contrary it is an overflowing joy, it is sharing.
Love is an art. It is the ultimate in aesthetics, it is creativity. When you love you want to enrich the world a little bit, you would like to leave it a little better than you found it. Only lovers can be creators.” – Osho
Whatsoever you want your life to become
Those who seek and search, they attain. Those who don’t seek and search, they will not attain; even if the time is auspicious, it doesn’t matter. And the time is the same, the time is neither good nor bad. Time is neither for enlightenment nor against enlightenment. Whatsoever you want your life to become, time gives you the opportunity. – Osho
A loving person simply loves
“To flow and grow in love needs no perfection. Love has no-thing to do with the other. A loving person simply loves, just as an alive person breathes and drinks and eats and sleeps. Exactly like that a really alive person, a loving person, loves.” – Osho
Prayer is not a technique
“Prayer is not a technique, it is not a ritual, it is not a formality. There is no pattern to it. It is a spontaneous outpouring of the heart.” – Osho
Bliss
“Bliss is a byproduct of consciousness. The more conscious you become, the more blissful you are.” – Osho
Meeting of the physical and the spiritual
“My emphasis is to live in all the seven centers together. Never lose contact with the lowest, and never avoid flying with the highest. Use all the centers!
Then your wings will be in the sky and your roots will be in the earth. And a perfect man is a meeting of heaven and earth — that’s what Taoists say: a meeting of heaven and earth.
That’s what a perfect man is: meeting of the physical and the spiritual, meeting of the body and the soul, meeting of the world and renunciation, meeting of prose and poetry.” – Osho
The whole art of ecstasy, meditation, samadhi
“The whole existence breathes, expands, inhales, exhales and if you can find the rhythm of existence and become one with the rhythm, you have attained.
The whole art of ecstasy, meditation, samadhi, is: How to become one with the rhythm of the universe. ” – Osho
