Jiddu Krishnamurti on what is Meditation and how to Meditate

If you set out to meditate, it will not be meditation. If you set out to be good, goodness will never flower. If you cultivate humility, it ceases to be. Meditation is like the breeze that comes in when you leave the window open; but if you deliberately keep it open, deliberately invite it to…

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.

We must look at our body completely objectively, as we look at a tree or a table or any object which does not have a strong psychological impact on us.

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

You know nothing ~ Krishnamurti

Forget all you know about yourself; forget all you have ever thought about yourself; start as if you know nothing. — Krishnamurti

Essential core of Osho’s Teaching
