Return to Osho Menu

#1: On the Bauls from Bengal. To reach to the essential man you have to go through the spontaneous man. Alertness. The first step on the path of love is the last step on the path of meditation. The soul cannot exist without love. Love is constantly throbbing within you.

#3: Excellent: “You are born to be a king but you are habituated to be a beggar.” Turn into your sleep / day dream and it changes. Just getting a slight angle on your thoughts is enough to change it. If in your mind is any thought then it is a dream. The ego is the dreamer. Your centre is like the hub of a wheel that does not change no matter how far the wheel travels. Someone insults you. They are on the outside. Anger arises on the peripherary. At the centre is the silent witness.

#5: The NLP core outcome chain pattern. Alexander the Great and Diogenes. Conquer this land, and this land, and this land, and then relax.

#6: Excellent: Destination is outside of your self. Life direction is an intuitive inner feeling. Destination is in the future. Direction is now. By deciding upon a destination one becomes almost mechanical.

#7: Excellent: The anecdote about the Christian who hid his Bible behind a Playboy cover. If you destroy your senses then how can you experience God?
Last words from a Zen master“ Don’t be misled. Look directly. What is this?”
Gurdjieff says all religions are against God. How can God be against His creations? It stands to reason that God loves His creations in the same way that an artist loves his creations. You can’t be against the artist and for his artwork. God would be thrilled for you to enjoy your mind and body and life to the max.
“Be real to reality. Live your life not through concepts but through your body, feelings and emotions. Don’t repress, just try and understand. The Baul’s place flowers of love at the feet of God and they prayer with their tears.

#8: The body is your home, your shrine. Comments on a Buddhist meditation that is similar to the kindness and compassion meditation. Happiness is a function of space. Become so spacious that the whole world can be contained in you. We believe in what we don’t know.

#9: Excellent: On the energies that hold existence together. Physicists talk of electricity, magnetism, electromagnetism, gravity and so on. Mystics talk of love as being the energy that holds existence together. The core of existence is conceptualised as God. Love has a great energy pull. “Love is when God has found you.” In disease one loses one’s connection with existence. “The devil stands in very religious garbs and gives a quotation of scriptures.” “The world raises everyone to be a beggar. Love raises you to be an Emperor.”

#10: The you that you are feeling is nothing but the cage given to you by society. Drop the cage and go for the sky. On surrender and submission.
