... CAUSE AND EFFECT, LACK THE AWARENESS OF THAT ORIGINAL NATURE WHICH THEY SHOULD RELY UPON." People are conscious, but very superficially, of ordinary things. They are functional beings and they do a thousand things, so you cannot say they are absolutely unconscious. At the most they can be called superficially conscious. According to the psychologists and their measurements, only one tenth of your...

... to the courtesy of Christianity. Maneesha carries the deep unconscious upbringing of a Christian. So don't use the word hypnosis. Otherwise it is a beautiful word, as beautiful as meditation. It is synonymous, but it is better to avoid it. You meditate and you don't count, because if you are counting, who is meditating? If you are counting, who is witnessing? Don't count, because in counting your...
... waiting, you start drifting. Like a cloud glides, drifts, you drift by and by from the conscious mind to the unconscious. You lose all control. You have to lose control; otherwise you cannot go to sleep, because the part that controls is the conscious mind. It has to allow. Control has to be left completely. Then - you don't know when and why and how - sleep comes to you. Only in the morning you become...

... man-created. But for that which is not man-created, you cannot be like an arrow - you have to be like a relaxed bow. God is total relaxation. Hence Patanjali says that perfect SAMADHI is like sleep, with only one difference - otherwise the quality is the same, the same flavor, the same taste - with just one difference: in sleep you are unconscious, in samadhi you are conscious. But the relaxation...
... doing it knowingly; they are as unconscious as you are. These ideas have been planted in them by others, their parents, and so on and so forth. But you have to jump out of this vicious circle. Renata, your name is so beautiful - it means rebirth. Being here with me you have to go through a process of being reborn, and the first step will be to drop all the ideas that have been imposed upon you. The...

... unknown. Sannyas is a mysterious journey. And, Angelo, in your ordinary, unconscious state you will not be able to do it by yourself. Four drunken Italians stumbled into a funeral parlor. After bumbling around for a half hour, one of them fell over a piano. "Here's the coffin," he advised his friends. One of them peered at the piano. "Do you recognize him?" the first one asked. "...
.... If you are carrying some subtle ideas deep down in your unconscious, then you are always looking - maybe not consciously, maybe not very deliberately, but always looking - to be supported, nourished. And if something is not supporting, it hurts, it wounds, and immediately you shrink back, you withdraw from me. And this thing goes on happening every day. People come close to me, they withdraw; they...

..., then it is love. Then it gives YOU freedom and you give the freedom needed for the other's growth. The ordinary marriage is an unconscious bondage: you cannot live alone so you become dependent on the other; the other cannot live alone so he or she becomes dependent on you. And we hate the person on which we are dependent; nobody likes to depend on anybody. Our deepest desire is to have freedom...
..., you will see yourself in it, your own unconscious will be reflected in it. These methods are just mirrors. They reflect your own unconscious - nothing much. They never give you anything new, they simply reflect you. But you don' t know yourself, that's why you think something new has been gained, some new knowledge has been gained through them. I have heard: the Russian dictator, Khrushchev, came to...
... really getting juice. You try protesting, shouting, and soon you get involved in it. Your thinking disappears, your past, your present, disappear. You are suddenly herenow - but not in a conscious way - through an unconscious trick. You can do it by alcohol, you can do it by politics, you can do it by religion. You can do it in a church, you can do it in a movie house. You can do it in a thousand and...

... through the test. If you can pass through the pain, if you can pass through all the misery, the suffering that you have repressed will rise again. It is like entering a house which nobody has entered for years. You will raise so much dust - and that dust is not simple dust, it covers your wounds. It has helped you to forget yourself. It has made you unconscious of yourself. It is not like taking off...
... evaporating the water and leaves you alone. It keeps your temperature the same; otherwise, without perspiration your temperature would be the same as the temperature outside. Soon you would burst - any moment. For centuries it has been a good contract - not made knowingly, but made certainly by your unconscious mind, and your prophets and messiahs and tirthankaras, avataras - that a distance is needed. So...

... throwing it out. It is just silly, it is nothing like sin. Alcohol can disturb before enlightenment, because it can make you more unconscious - that's its whole purpose. Your consciousness is burdened so much with anxieties, worries, anguish, that you take a drink and feel good because your consciousness goes to sleep. Hence, before enlightenment, any kind of intoxicant is absolutely to be dropped. It...
... that the unconscious has to remind you that you have to do something. His dream was that he sees a vast desert - as far as he can see it is desert... sand and sand and nothing else. Hot sun... the sand is almost burning. And two shoes - they are his shoes - are walking. He is not in them - that was the most horrible thing - just the shoes going on and on, and the desert is endless. So the whole night...

... very peacefully, very blissfully. In his whole life this was the first time he had taken a decision - and the dream had disappeared. It was simply an unconscious reminder, continuously, "Do something; you are unnecessarily caught in a net - you can get out of it. Nobody is holding you, you are simply sitting there." Question 4: BELOVED OSHO, THE COMMUNE IS NO MORE; OR, EVERY SANNYASIN IS...
... sign of his coming back. But Hindus still go on living in hope, still they go on repeating the promise of Krishna, that soon he will be coming. This keeps people unconscious of the reality. It is opium - very subtle, very psychological. The contented man has been created by this opium: here be contented, and there you will be immensely rewarded for your contentment. Don't be bothered about the rich...

... children, women, men, trees, in Nagasaki, in Hiroshima. Einstein was an unconscious scientist - it was out of discontent. Basically he was a German, but unfortunately a Jew; he had to escape from Germany. He was doing the same work for Adolf Hitler. If he had remained in Germany, perhaps there would have been no Nagasaki, no Hiroshima. There may have been London, New York, Washington, Moscow, but not...
... I was reading the book and I was so impressed. I don't want to go into it. This is dangerous." Concentration, discipline, yoga discipline, other methods of chanting mantras - they all reinforce your mind and make it stronger, capable of using the powers that are in your subconscious, in your unconscious, in your collective unconscious. If you are not aware - and you are not aware - this is...
