To accept the challenge of the unknown is courage. The fears are there, but if you go on accepting the challenges again and again, slowly, slowly those fears disappear. The joy that the unknown brings, the great ecstasy that starts happening with the unknown, makes you strong enough, gives you a certain integrity, makes your intelligence sharp. You start feeling that life is not just a boredom. Life is an adventure. OSHO

But if you have come to be transformed, not to be informed only, then you will have to understand that there is a different door. And that door is trust. Trust is an absurd phenomenon, logically absurd. That’s what logic always says love is blind, although love has its own eyes, far more deep going…still, to logic it is blind.

When sadness comes, just sit by the side and look at it and say, “I am the watcher, I am not sadness,” and see the difference. Immediately you have cut the very root of sadness. We feed these emotions by being identified with them. OSHO #sadness #sit #look #watcher #see #difference #immediately #cut #roots #feed #emotion #identified #osho

Anything basically can be transformed into meditation, one just has to look deep into things and find some ways to transform them into meditation. Sitting, walking, eating, working-anything can be transformed into meditation. #transformed #meditation #anything #look #deep #into #things #walking #sitting #eating #working #osho
OSHO
You can start with awareness; then awareness takes you away from the mind and the identifications with the mind. Naturally, the body starts relaxing; you are no longer attached. Tensions cannot exist in the light of awareness. #awareness #mind #identification #body #relaxing #tension #osho
OSHO
Be a loving person rather than in a love relationship – because relationships happen one day and disappear another day. They are flowers; in the morning they bloom, by the evening they are gone. OSHO #be #loving #relationship #happen #disappear #flowers #morning #bloom #evening #gone #osho
OSHO
From the very beginning you are being told to compare yourself with others. This is the greatest disease; it is like a cancer that goes on destroying your very soul. Each individual is unique, and comparison is not possible. #comparison #disease #destroying #soul #unique #osho
OSHO
Respect your own individuality and respect others’ individuality, Never interfere in anybody’s life and don’t allow anybody to interfere in your life. Only then one day you can grow into spirituality. #respect #individuality #life #interfere #anybody #grow #spirituality #osho
OSHO
Love is a by-product of freedom; it is the overflowing joy of freedom, it is the fragrance of freedom. First the freedom has to be there, then love follows. #love #freedom #overflowing #joy #fragrance #osho
OSHO
Just watch all your acts, all your beliefs, and find out whether they are based in reality, in experience, or based in fear. And anything based in fear has to be dropped immediately without a second thought. It is your armor. OSHO #watch #act #beliefs #reality #experience #fear #drop #immediately #thought #armor #osho
OSHO
Truth cannot be transferred, truth cannot be handed over to you by somebody else, because it is not a commodity. It is not a thing, it is an experience. #truth #transfer #somebody #commodity #thing #experience #osho
OSHO
Misery arises because we don´t allow change to happen. We cling, we want things to be static. That´s how misery arises. Nobody can be certain about the next moment – what to say about tomorrow? OSHO #misery #allow #change #happen #cling #things #static #want #certain #next #moment #tomorrow #osho
OSHO
We have two layers of existence; the world of doing and the world of being; the circumference and the center. Go on working on the periphery, on the circumference; do not stop it. But go on working attentively on the center also. What will happen? Your activity will become and acting, as if you are playing a part. #layers #existence #world #circumference #center #periphery #work #attentively #activity #acting #playing #osho
