... there, one quality, that of passivity, and one quality of waking is there, that of alertness. Relaxed as if you are asleep, alert as you are awake. One thing is taken from sleep - unconsciousness. That should not be there, because meditation cannot be unconscious, and one thing is taken from your waking state - occupiedness; because if you are occupied then the mind is working, you are enclosed in...

... thoughts. While you are awake there are two things: alertness and occupiedness. While you are asleep there are two things: passivity and unconsciousness. One thing from awakeness, one thing from sleep: passivity and alertness - they make meditation. If you take the two other ingredients, occupation and unconsciousness, you become mad. Those two ingredients, occupied and unconscious, make madness, make...
... is not the only life you have. You have lived many lives; the pilgrimage is long, and you have been going almost in circles. So your consciousness has not grown; you are committing the same mistakes again and again. Each life is wasted almost in a repetitive way. People say history repeats itself. History has no business to repeat itself; it repeats itself because we are unconscious so we go on...

... unconscious man cannot be expected to change his life's course. It is only consciousness, growing consciousness, that is going to change your lifestyle. And once you are fully awakened, enlightened, you need not come back again into another womb. The enlightened being disappears into the womb of the universe itself. Not that you are no more, but in fact you are for the first time - as vast, as infinite as...
... which can be destroyed very easily, even by a child. I would like you first to become as strong as a cedar of Lebanon. Then you can raise your head, even to the stars, and communicate your experiences. You can learn much from my own life. I have been talking about things which people cannot understand, and because they cannot understand they feel, in their unconscious, humiliated. And the only way...

... involved in meditations, they got involved with my presence, with my love. They stayed, but deep in their unconscious their old desires were still alive. So on the surface they were feeling very good, but the surface is very thin. Any small incident can open up the Pandora"s box, and all their desires they were thinking had gone are there, more forceful than ever before. That"s what is...
... commitment. And you are so unconscious; you commit yourself so easily about the future, which is not in your hands. How can you say anything about tomorrow? Tomorrow is not your property. You may be here, you may not be here. And who knows about tomorrow? The love that has suddenly taken possession of you may disappear. But almost every man commits himself to his woman, that "I will love you my whole...

.... He was absolutely sincere that he did not want to sell it at any price. When the man said, "I will love you forever," he was absolutely truthful; but he was unconscious that tomorrow is not within his control. He can only speak about this moment: "I love you now. As for tomorrow, we will see what happens. Neither am I in a bondage, nor are you in a bondage. If tomorrow again we feel...
... unconscious. To go beyond the mind means to become superconscious. And the superconscious and unconscious are as distinct as two things can be, as far away from each other as there is possibility. They have nothing in common except that one point. Hence in the beginning every meditator feels that it is something like madness. But it is saner than your sanity. You have to wait a little, to become acquainted...
... Punta Del Este, Uruguay. Archive Code: N.A. Short Title: N.A. Audio Available: N.A. Video Available: N.A. Length: N.A. Question 1: BELOVED OSHO, YOU ONCE SAID SOMETHING LIKE WHEN WE TAKE SANNYAS IT IS EITHER TOO EARLY OR TOO LATE. I HAVE OFTEN WONDERED WHAT YOU MEANT BY THIS. WOULD YOU PLEASE COMMENT? Man is so unconscious that he does not know what he is doing, or for what he is doing it, or when the...

... long it takes. But when there is music and your whole body is thrilling, and when there is song, although you are sitting, in a subtle sense there is a dance in you. You cannot remain unconscious, you have to become more watchful. I want vipassana to be a warmer path; then it becomes a very short cut. I would like you to sing and dance and play on instruments - that will take you away from the...
... necessary to keep people alert, not falling into the sleep of blindness, unconscious faith. Even the very intelligent people in America came across and I was surprised, I could not believe that a well educated man, a professor in the university, tells me that Bible is the word of God. I asked him, "Do you know that Hindus believe Vedas are the words of God, Mohammedans believe that the Koran is the...

... sannyasins were there under her and one million sannyasins around the world were under her because I was in isolation and she was my secretary and she was the only communication between me and the sannyasins. Seeing so many people under her power she got suddenly an unconscious urge to remain in this power forever. Now the only problem for her was if I start speaking again that will be the end of her whole...
... immensely protective. You just watch your dreams, remember them in the morning, and you will be surprised how intelligently your unconscious mind creates a situation and protects your sleep. Actually that's what is happening, Ashubodha, to you, because you are continuously interested in being a watcher. So the dreams say, "Okay, we will supply it - you can be a watcher." But it is a dream, and...

... I don't have any time for her. She is a poor woman, and she is behaving just as any unconscious human being is supposed to behave." But if it happens otherwise - my experience is of both the types - if the woman progresses in meditation, in silence, in blissfulness, she manages to pull her husband closer to her state. Husbands are very obedient people. It rarely happens that the couple grow...
... seashells, and no two seashells will be exactly the same. Or find colored stones - no two colored stones will be the same. The creativity of existence is enormous. It never repeats. You have heard the saying, "History never repeats," but I say to you that that is not true. History repeats, only existence never repeats. History repeats, because it is in the hands of unconscious people...

.... Unconscious people cannot be unique. It happened once, a man purchased a painting by Picasso. It was one million dollars, and he wanted to be sure that it was an authentic Picasso, not a fake - because there are on the market fake paintings which look exactly alike. Unless you are an experienced critic, it is impossible for you to see any difference. So he consulted a man who was an expert, particularly...
... the time of this mission — and continued throughout the remainder of Jesus’ life on earth — a peculiar and unexplained series of healing phenomena. In the course of this three months’ tour more than one hundred men, women, and children from Judea, Idumea, Galilee, Syria, Tyre, and Sidon, and from beyond the Jordan were beneficiaries of this unconscious healing by Jesus and, returning to their homes...

..., added to the enlargement of Jesus’ fame. And they did this notwithstanding that Jesus would, every time he observed one of these cases of spontaneous healing, directly charge the beneficiary to “tell no man.” (1669.2) 149:1.3 It was never revealed to us just what occurred in these cases of spontaneous or unconscious healing. The Master never explained to his apostles how these healings were effected...
