Osho on the exact process for the Watchfulness meditation

When I say watch, don’t TRY to watch, otherwise you will become tense again, and you will start concentrating on the breath. Simply relax, remain relaxed, loose, and look…because what else can you do? You are there, nothing to be done, everything accepted, nothing to be denied, rejected, no struggle, no fight no conflict, breathing…

Deep Meditation is an experience of Death in life ~ Osho

You come to your innermost center where there is only pure awareness. That pure awareness will be with you when you die because that cannot be taken away. All these other things which can be taken away, we take away with our own hands in meditation.

Breath is the first action ~ but it is not Your action ~ Osho

And then the ninth, the last, arises: the need for spiritual activity – meditation, SAMADHI. And this is the beauty of the whole phenomenon – that the ninth is again the first, because the ninth again pays attention to breath. The circle is complete. First is breath, ninth is again breath; that’s why no spiritual…

Is it possible to Meditate without any technique? ~ Osho

But what are you going to do with your mind? Your mind will create a thousand and one difficulties. Those techniques are needed to remove the mind from the way, to create a space in which the mind becomes quiet, silent, almost absent.

Osho on how to live your life

“The best way to miss life is to have a certain attitude towards it. The attitudes originate in the mind, and life is beyond mind. The attitudes are our fabrications, our prejudices, our inventions. Life is not our fabrication; on the contrary we are just ripples in the lake of life” Osho

Osho on seeing things just as they are

“Start seeing things without naming them, without labeling them, without saying good or bad, without dividing them. Just see and allow the fact to be there in your presence without any judgement, condemnation, appreciation, whatsoever ~ Osho

Osho on Depression ~ When Depressed, be Depressed

“When depressed, be depressed. Simply be depressed. Don’t get depressed about your depression. When depressed, simply be depressed. Don’t fight it, don’t create any diversion; don’t force it to go. Just allow it to happen, it will go by itself. Life is a flux, nothing remains. You are not needed: the river moves by itself,…

Gibberish Meditation by Osho

“I am dealing with the contemporary man, who is the most restless being that has ever evolved on the earth. But people do become silent; you just have to allow them to throw out their madness, insanity, then they themselves become silent.”  Osho

Mystic Rose Meditation by Osho

“All that this world needs is a good cleansing of the heart of all the inhibitions of the past. Laughter and tears can do both. Tears will take out all the agony that is hidden inside you and laughter will take all that is preventing your ecstasy.” Osho

Sex Matters: From Sex to Super consciousness by Osho

Osho describes the true meaning of love. He partakes that Sex is a requisite attraction. It has to be recognized as a regular and common physiological activity. Society has denounced it a lot which has led to corruption and suppression. In actuality, sex provides the first flash of Samadhi, of no-thought. The same spirit of…

Osho Meditation ~ Using Imagination

First thing in the morning, imagine yourself tremendously happy. Get out of bed in a very happy mood – radiant, bubbling, expectant – as if something perfect, of infinite value, is going to happen today. Get out of the bed in a very positive and hopeful mood, with the feeling that this day is not…

Befriend Sadness ~ Osho

“You are feeling sad? Befriend it. Have compassion for it. Sadness also has a being. Allow it, embrace it, sit with it, hold hands with it. Be friendly. Be in love with it. Sadness is beautiful! Nothing is wrong with it. Who told you that something is wrong in being sad? In fact, only sadness…

Accept challenges of life ~ Osho

The only problem with sadness, desperation, anger, hopelessness, anxiety, anguish, misery, is that you want to get rid of them. That’s the only barrier. You will have to live with them. You cannot just escape. They are the very situation in which life has to integrate and grow. They are the challenges of life. Accept…

Everything is one ~ Osho

“Everything is one” And suddenly a new door opens, a new perception is achieved. Suddenly the mundane world of division, of separation has disappeared, and a different world of Oneness comes before you. Everything loses its boundary; everything is with others, is not divided but One. – Osho

Essential core of Osho’s Teaching

Witnessing is concerned with the body, the second with the mind, the third with the heart. And when you become capable of watching the third too, the fourth happens on its own accord. Suddenly a quantum leap and you are standing exactly at the very center of your being, where there is nothing to be…

Men and women are mirrors for each other ~ Osho

When a woman travels the path of love and opens to spiritual rebirth, she will flower into consciousness. When a man travels the path of awareness and meditation, he will find himself flowering into love. Men and women are mirrors for each other. We simply need to learn to polish our mirrors till they shine.…

Intrinsic value ~ Osho

“As it is, the world has trapped you in a miserable pattern: What you are doing is not good because you love it, because you do it perfectly, but because the world recognizes it, rewards it, gives you gold medals, Nobel prizes. They have taken away the whole intrinsic value of creativity and destroyed millions…

The beauty of the unconscious ~ Osho

“The beauty of the unconscious is that it never lies because it has never been part of civilization. It has never been educated, it has never been turned into a hypocrite; it is very simple, very innocent. It simply says whatsoever is the case.” – Osho

Miracle ~ Osho

Meditation means: Remaining unrelated with your thought process. Utterly unrelated, cool, calm. Watching whatsoever is passing. And then a miracle happens.- Osho

Your body represents the whole of existence ~ Osho

“In your body is the water of the oceans, in your body is the fire of the stars and the suns, in your body is the air, your body is made of earth. Your body represents the whole of existence, all the elements.” – Osho

Catharsis

A catharsis is needed because your heart is so suppressed, due to your brain. Your brain has taken over so much of your being that it dominates you… Then catharsis is needed to unburden the heart, to throw off suppressions, to make the heart open. If the heart becomes light and unburdened then the center…

Quick Meditation from Osho on Anxiety

When you feel deep anxiety, just call you name – not any name, but your name – and then reply to it, say “Yes sir, I am here” and feel the difference. Anxiety will not be there. Atleast for a single moment you have a glimpse beyond the clouds, and that glimpse can be deepened.…

Love is about appreciation ~ Osho

If you love a flower, don’t pick it up. Because if you pick it up and dies and it uses to be what your love. So if you love a flower, let it be. Love is not about possession. Love is about appreciation. – Osho

Seek and Find where your home is ~ Osho

Without suffering nobody can become aware. That’s why birds are not aware – They are not in suffering. Trees are not aware, They are not in suffering. Only man suffers: Man is a special case. You have been thrown astray so that you have to seek and find where your home is. – Osho

Hate ~ Osho

Hate exists in the past and the future. You cannot hate in the present – Try, and you will be utterly impotent. Try it today: sit silently and hate somebody in the present, with no reference to the past or the future… You cannot do it. It cannot be done; in the very nature of…

Osho ~ I am an Invitation

Unless it is your a priority concern, your ultimate concern, that even if it is needed, you are even ready to lose everything for it, but you cannot drop it, there are thousands of desires but as far as longing is concerned there is only one and that is you come back home, to find…

Dynamic Meditation ~ Osho’s Gift to Humanity

Osho believed that cathartic methods were necessary to follow dynamic meditation. This was because it was difficult for modern people to sit and enter meditation. He went on to say that he never told people to begin sitting. With a mad dance, you begin to become aware of a silent point within you.

Who Was Osho?

Guru Rajneesh’s delivered his teachings through his many discourses and lectures. They were interspersed with jokes and not presented in an academic setting. The emphasis of his discourses was not static and changed over time. Rajneesh’s works reveled in paradox and contrarian view.

The essential core of my teaching ~ Osho

“The essential core of my teaching is: no belief, no dogma, no creed, no religion, nothing borrowed. But only that which you have experienced has to be trusted; everything else has to be doubted. Just as other religions have their foundation in belief, I have my foundation in doubt. My foundation is exactly what the…

Osho – Life consists of very small things

Life consists of very small things. So, if you become interested in so-called big things, you will be missing life. Life consists in sipping a cup of tea, in gossiping with a friend; going for a morning walk, not going anywhere in particular, just for a walk, no goal; no end from any point you…
