... the situation, then people are going to suffer in a hundred and one ways, because they are connected with so many others. And each 'other' is a problem for the simple reason that everybody is trying to dominate everybody else. We have been raised as politicians. We have been filled with ambitions, desires - to possess, to become powerful, to have as much money as you desire, as you dream of. These...
... tooth and nail, directly and indirectly, with a single aim: to dominate the other, to reduce the other to the status of second. It is not possible. If it were possible, people would have solved the problem - although the solution would not have brought blessings. It would have stopped the continuous fight for monopoloy - although even if the fight stops, you will not be blissful. You will be almost...
..., culture, and Dionysius is the god of disorder, chaos, freedom, nature. Both are polar opposites. Almost all religions are more or less based on the Apollonian standpoint. They believe in reason, they believe in order, they believe in virtue, they believe in discipline, control... really they believe in the ego. But Tantra is basically different: it contains both. It contains the Dionysian standpoint...
... imaginative: that's why you are afraid when you are alone. It is not that ghosts are going to trouble you, but alone your imagination can work. And your imagination can create ghosts or anything you want it to. When you move alone, your imagination is more potential; when someone else is there, your reason is in control Because without reason you cannot be related to the others; to others goes on working...
... conscience inside you. Conscience is the constable standing inside and the constable is the conscience standing outside. The society tries to control you from the outside and the inside, both. It appreciates if you follow. It awards you, rewards you, if you follow. It punishes you, condemns you, if you go astray. A man of perfect awareness has nothing to do with character. He comes out of it. He has no...
..., what you are doing, God seems to be the universal Peeping Tom - he goes on looking. The society has used God's eyes to control you, to make you a slave. You cannot even love totally, you cannot hate totally, you cannot be angry totally. You cannot be total in anything. You eat halfheartedly, you walk halfheartedly, you laugh halfheartedly. You cannot cry - you are holding thousands of tears in your...
... their sex energy. Either transform it, or don't suppress it. Sex becomes the master because you are so tense. You need it; you need its help. When you are relaxed, sex disappears. The more you are relaxed, the more sex disappears. If you are totally relaxed, sex disappears completely; and the energy that was involved in sex becomes love, becomes compassion, becomes awareness, becomes freedom. And the...
... GROWING PLACE FOR ME TO BE AND I DISLIKE MUCH OF WHAT I SEE HERE - DEAD RAJNEESHIANITY RISING LIKE AN IKON, LICENTIOUSNESS NOT FREEDOM EMERGING, ARROGANCE AND AGGRESSIVENESS THE RULE, HUMILITY AND CARING THE EXCEPTION. OPENING TO THE AWARENESS THAT THESE ARE MY QUALITIES, PROJECTED, RETURNS ME TO A DEEP APPRECIATION IN BEING HERE. THANK YOU. This is from Amitabh. I can only say, "Thank you, Amitabh...
... world is created around the lover. He looks blind to everybody else, but he is not blind in himself; in fact for the first time he has attained to eyes, to vision, to insight. Love can be known only by falling in love; by becoming, not even a lover, but by becoming love itself. If you are a lover, love has not happened yet. You still remain in control. If you want, you can change, if you want, you can...
... your mastery is not at all. You become a slave. You cannot control it; love becomes the master, you become the slave. It possesses you completely. But still mind can say something about love, because heart is not very far away from the head, the distance is not very far. Mind can have a few glimpses, it can look back, it can look within, and have a few glimpses - that's why poetry is possible...
... be sitting on the golden throne on top of millions of corpses - for whom? There will be nobody to rejoice, to celebrate even. It is better that I become a sannyasin and let my brothers rule the kingdom." If Arjuna had been listened to by Krishna there would have been no war. And Krishna says, "Non- violence is the greatest religion." He is a politician. In some other reference, maybe...
...." But Krishna goes on insisting to Arjuna "It is not you, it is God's will." God is very handy. When you cannot manage anything, bring God in: "It is God's will. Those rascals have to be eradicated. God wants you to destroy the immoral people and establish the rule of the righteous." Now, when you bring God in, man becomes silent. What can he say now? And Krishna says, "...
... philosopher in India, and he had defeated many philosophers - which was a unique tradition in India. It must prevail all over the world. Philosophers used to move from one place to another place, challenging other philosophers - an open challenge. Thousands heard them - and this raised the whole intelligence of the country. When two giants are struggling, going to finer and finer logical levels, splitting...
... ground." Except this Nicodemus, no rabbi ever approached Jesus - and Nicodemus approached him in the night. It would have been better that he also had not approached Jesus, because he shows the cowardliness of your so-called religious people and who crucified Jesus? The high priest and the supreme command of rabbis who overruled the whole community of Jews - they decided that he should be...
... himself. And the son is helpless, because he is dependent for everything on the father; hence, he has to suppress himself, be obedient. Every father wants the son to be obedient. God wanted Adam and Eve to be obedient. Their only sin was that they disobeyed the father. And the great God - who is compassion, who is love, who is forgiveness - could not forgive his own son, his own daughter? And they had...
... vested interests don't want you to be intelligent, to be rich in experience, to reach to the climax of your potential, because that is dangerous to them. You can remain slaves only if you are poor in experience, if you are poor in intelligence. You can remain slaves only if you are a hen- pecked husband. You know perfectly well that you cannot even control your wife. You will never try to make any...
... been in those moments; so you can compare easily that it is not the same thing. Help each other to come out - and it is very easy if you help each other - and part in grace. Next time try not to fall, but try to rise. Don't let biology dominate you. Your consciousness should be the master. Question 2: BELOVED OSHO, TO BE DISOBEDIENT AND TO SURRENDER SEEM TO ME POLAR OPPOSITES. PLEASE EXPLAIN HOW THE...
... dreaming or having a past-life experience, the criterion is simple. Try it again and again in the same silent space, and the movie remains the same. You cannot have the same dream twice, on order - impossible. You don't have any control over your dreams, they go on changing. Very rarely does it happen that a person has a similar kind of dream again. If he has the same dream repeated again and again, then...
... beautiful conspiracy: Lenin was given daily poison in the name of medicine. The doctor was a hired man of Stalin. The poison was to be given in such small doses that it would kill him over a long period of time. While he remains alive, he remains the leader because the masses still know him. He should not die right now, because if he dies right now then Trotsky will be the man to control the country...
... fact their fight for freedom was not a fight for freedom but just a step to reach power. It was a shock to all the politicians because none of them had been chosen by Gandhi to be the prime minister; and Gandhi had total control of the Indian mind. Sardar Patel was shocked because he was very close to Gandhi and he was also a Gujarati - Gandhi was a Gujarati - and he had served Gandhi his whole life...
