.... I call it pure religiousness. Question 3: BELOVED MASTER, SOMEWHERE IN THOSE FAR-OFF POONA DAYS THIS QUOTATION HIT ME - THE AUTHOR AND EXACT WORDS NOW FORGOTTEN, BUT IT SEEMS TO SAY EVERYTHING THERE IS TO SAY. "THE GREATEST GOOD FORTUNE THAT CAN BEFALL A MAN IS TO BE BORN IN THE AGE OF A BUDDHA. EVEN GREATER IS THE GOOD FORTUNE OF HE WHO COMES TO HEAR OF THE EXISTENCE OF THE BUDDHA. AND EVEN...
... those people became enlightened? How many people dropped out of his family - how many people even became enemies of Gautam Buddha? How many attempts were made to kill him by his own ex-followers? Buddha's own cousin-brother tried to kill him many times. He could not succeed, but he made those efforts. So the statement is true, but not for all. It is true only for those who have a sensitivity to feel...
... I will kill you!" You cannot be angry with the well frog - that was his only vision, his only perspective. You have to forgive him. You have to forgive him because you are in his position. If you don't forgive him, you will not be able to forgive yourself either. I am talking about the oceanic juice, and you are comparing it with Coca-Cola. Just come along with me. There is no other way, no...
... woman, even if she is enlightened? She saw in front of a mosque a very famous Mohammedan saint, Hassan - who was known all over the country and beyond - with his hands stretched towards the sky, praying to God, "Give me this, give me that." Rabiya was a rare woman in the history of men. She went, stood behind Hassan, and hit him on his head. He certainly could not believe that he is asking...
... God for beautiful things, and a hit comes! He looked back, and he found a woman. Hassan said, "This is not right, disturbing somebody in his prayer time." Rabiya said, "You idiot! You were asking, 'Please open the doors' - and I tell you the doors have never been closed! So who is going to open them? There is nobody to close them, there is nobody to open them. Just enter!" Jesus...
... president... he seems to have been sent by God to preside over all the meetings in this town. I am tired of him. I cannot call him 'Mister President' when in fact I would rather have hit him." On that day when the president had called me for my prize, I said, "Okay, but remember you will have to come down here and shake hands with me." He said, "What! Shake hands with you! I will never...
... must be making not to hit that idiot.'" Sheikh Abdullah took so much effort, and yet he said to me, "I would have even allowed you to live in Kashmir if you had not been introduced to me by Masta Baba." I asked the sheikh, "Why?... when you appeared to be such an admirer." He said, "We are no one's admirer, we admire only ourselves, but because he had a following...
... of it. When one wants to curse, one says, "Jesus!" The sound certainly has something cursing in it. Try to curse somebody by saying, "Joshua!" and you will find difficulty. The word itself prevents you. It is so feminine, so beautiful, and so round that you cannot hit anybody with it. What's the time? "Twenty past eleven, Osho." That's good, finish it. Generated by...
..., dishonesty, violence. They are in the good man but only repressed - they can erupt any moment. The good man can change into a bad man very easily, without any effort - because all those bad qualities are there, only dormant, repressed with effort. If you remove the effort they will immediately erupt in your life. And your good qualities are only cultivated, not natural: you have tried hard to be honest, to...
... in sleep? All that I repress in the day comes in the night." It shows one thing: that it has not gone anywhere; it has been inside you, just waiting. The moment you relax, the moment you remove the effort - and asleep you have at least to relax and remove the effort to be good - all the bad qualities that you have been repressing will start becoming your dreams. Your dreams are your repressed...
.... He has treated women as cattle -even worse. In China, for thousands of years, the woman was not thought to have a soul, so the husband could kill her and the law would not interfere -she was his possession. If he wanted to destroy his furniture it was not illegal. If he wanted to destroy his woman it was not illegal. This is the ultimate insult -that the woman has no soul. Man has deprived woman of...
... out they will push her back into the funeral pyre. Behind the musicians there are a great number of priests shouting loudly and chanting mantras from the ancient Vedas. This whole scene is arranged just to kill a woman and so that nobody should know that she was killed against her will. And the whole crowd outside is joyous and cheering because it is a great event -a woman has proven her love to the...
... last moment of her husband's life. How many millions of women have been burned this way for the simple reason that the man is jealous that after he is gone, what guarantee is there...? It was the British government's rule in India that stopped it, because it was simply murder and nothing else. But then Hindus prevented the widow from marrying again. They shaved her head -that beautiful hair that was...
... elephant cannot move as quickly, cannot change positions as quickly. And the most dangerous thing about the elephant is that if a few elephants become afraid, then those who are in front start running over their own army. Horses never do that; horses are far more intelligent. And even if they would, it is not going to kill people. But when elephants run over people, they are finished. And elephants are...
... skin is so thick, and he is bulky. They are good for a royal parade but not good for fighting, where you need more agile, quick movements. A good horse is one that moves even by the shadow of the whip; you need not hit him. The whole training was going to be changed... so knowingly they continued with the elephants and went on being defeated by each invader. But they would not change their way of...
... is very difficult in the beginning... it is almost impossible. You have to look ahead on the road, so that you do not crash and kill somebody. You have to stay on the right side, so you have to be constantly aware of the steering wheel. You have to stay within a certain limit of speed, so you have to be aware of the speed you are going. And your foot has to be in tune with you on the accelerator...
... affairs as possible because love is the most changing phenomenon in existence - because it is the most beautiful flower. In the morning it opens, in the evening it is gone. But tomorrow other flowers will open, they have always been opening. So just rest for the night. It is good between two women to have a little time for rest - or don't you want any rest? Then you will kill yourself. So, sometimes in...
... manage to get a ticket to be elected to the assembly." I said, "You should thank God that you are alive. Just open your shop again and forget all about politics." That old man was threatening, at the time when his first son died, that he will kill himself. His wife was very much afraid. She told me, "Somehow, prevent him. He says that he will jump, he will kill himself." I said...
... recorder, so when I go to bed they will put on the tape recorder and just listening to it I will go into a perfect sleep. Then they will remove the tape recorder. Otherwise it was difficult, I will toss and turn. Twenty years is a long time, and it became such a habit. Mostly I was in an air-conditioned coupe for only two people, and because I was so tired I had no desire to talk to the other person or...
... SAME MOMENT SUDDENLY THE BED BROKE AND I HIT MY HEAD ON THE WALL. I WAS THROWN TO THE FLOOR. OSHO, DID YOU DO THAT? IT HURT ME, BUT THE BLACK HOLE WAS GONE! Naturally. Who else would do it? If somebody else had done it then your head would not have hit and the black hole would not have gone. Your bed may have broken, you may have fallen on the floor, but you would have been in an even bigger black...
..., many more than the people who are suffering from physical cancer, are suffering from psychological cancer. And the only way to remove a psychological cancer is to expose it. If there is love and trust, then you will not start getting angry or hurt, because I am nothing but your physician. And just out of my love I have to hit you -- sometimes very hard, because the crust that is covering your wound...
... forced me to carry a staff too. I have never carried anything in my hand in my whole life, but a friend has sent a beautiful staff, which is waiting. Either Veena gets okay by tomorrow morning, or I will have to use for the first time a very gross and primitive method. I hit you as sophisticatedly as possible, as playfully as possible. But if you are here not to be transformed, but are just hanging...
... have been torturing me, now you have started torturing faraway people. He lives in Germany, now ... it is none of your business to harass people." I said, "I am not harassing him, I am simply saying that if he really means it then he should remove this sentence." He was one of the best minds. Even his own teacher, Bertrand Russell, had recognized him as a better logician than himself...
.... But he never replied to me, because to reply to me would have meant he had to remove that sentence from the book. There is no logical defense about it. Whatever you say, you are saying something. Even if you say, "Nothing can be said about it," you are still saying something about it. So logic has its own subtleties. Ta Hui is a well-trained professional logician, but any logician -- if he...
..., immediately I am hit by the pole." The policeman said, "Wait, I will try to get you out. You are certainly surrounded by many poles." But the man said, "Just when I went out this evening, there was one pole, as always. From where have so many poles come?" And the man ... the policeman took him to his house. Because he was always coming home late, the wife was tired of it, so she had...
