Liberation movementLove can exist only in equality, in friendship. The freedom of woman from man´s slavery will also be freedom for man to experience love.
So I call the women´s liberation movement is not only women´s liberation,
it is also the men´s liberation movement: both will be liberated.
-ANAND- Be life-affirmative.Be life-affirmative. Life is synonymous with God. You can drop the word God - life is God. Live with reverence, with great respect...gratitude. You have not earned the life, it has been a sheer gift from the beyond. Feel thankful and prayerful, and take as many bites of it as possible and chew well and digest well. -SARAHA- NeedsIf you are sad you are wrong; if you are joyful you are right.
It has been almost a criterion to me that anybody who is sad,
complaining, grumpy, is wrong — is bound to be wrong.
He may find out thousand and one reasons why he is sad, I don´t accept.
He is sad because he has not allowed his life to blossom and taken care of his needs.
-GUNDA- Self-LoveThou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
-JESUS- Man is the only creature.....Man is the only creature that refuses to be what he is.
-Albert Camus- Insanity:Insanity: Doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.
-Albert Einstein- Heaven & HellThere is no heaven and there is no hell.
They are not geographical, they are part of your psychology.
They are psychological. To live the life of spontaneity,
truth, love, beauty is to live in heaven.
To live the life of hypocrisy, lies, compromises,
to live according to others, is to live in hell.
To live in freedom is heaven,
and to live in bondage is hell.
-OSHO- ProverbsLaugh and be well!
Parents can tell but never teach, unless they practice what they preach.
Your heart understands what your head cannot yet conceive; trust your heart.
If parents really love children they will help them to be courageous — even courageous against themselves. They will help them to be courageous against teachers, against society, against anybody who is going to destroy their individuality.
-ANAND- TIMETime means mind. When the mind stops, time stops. You may have sometimes felt it. When there is no thought in your mind, is there any time left? The procession of thoughts creates time.
-OSHO- Do not judge yourself! -:)People have judged you; you have accepted their idea without any scrutiny. And you are suffering from all kinds of people's judgments, and you are throwing those judgments on other people. And this game has become out of proportion. The whole humanity is suffering from it. If you want to get out of it, the first thing is: Do not judge yourself! -:) -ANAND PRABODH- HeartMy goal is to change the world one heart at a time. -Mary Mackenzie- RelaxTry to relax, and you will find it, that you feel more tense than ever. Try harder and you will feel more tense and more tense. Relaxation is not a consequence, is not a result of some activity; it is the glow of understanding. Belive?The believer is not a seeker. The believer does not want to seek, that`s why he believes. The believer wants to avoid seeking, that`s why he believes. The believer wants to be delivered, saved, he needs a savior. He is always in search of a messiah - somebody who can eat for him, chew for him, digest for him. But if I eat, your hunger is not going to be satisfied. Nobody can save you except yourself.
-BODHIDHARMA- GoalsHave a goal, and sooner or later you will end up on the psychoanalyst´s couch. My vision is that of a goalless life. That is the vision of all the buddhas. Everything simply is, for no reason at all. Everything simply is utterly absurd. If this is understood, then where is the hurry, and for what?
-RUMI- MindMind is repetitive, mind always moves in circles. Mind is a mechanism: you feed it with knowledge, it repeats the same knowledge,
it goes on chewing the same knowledge again and again.
No-mind is clarity, purity, innocence.
No-mind is the real way to live,
the real way to know, the real way to be.
-OSHO- ChildrenThe whole idea that children are your possession is wrong.
They are born through you, but they do not belong to you.
You have a past, they have only a future
They are not going to live according to you.
To live according to you will be almost equivalent to not living at all.
They have to live according to themselves — in freedom, in responsibility,
in danger, in challenge.
HealthOnce pathology disappears, everybody becomes a creator.
Let it be understood as deeply as possible: only ill people are destructive.
The people who are healthy are creative. Creativity is a kind of fragrance of real health. When a person is really healthy and whole, creativity comes naturally to him, the urge to create arises.
EnergyYou have the source of energy.
Whatever happens in your life needs your energy.
If you cut the source of energy and —
in other words that´s what I call identification —
if you don´t identify with anything, it immediately becomes dead,
it has no energy of its own.
And non-identification is the other side of watchfulness.
-PRABODH- WealthRemember, only that which you can take with you when you leave the body is important. That means, except meditation, nothing is important. Except awareness, nothing is important, because only awareness cannot be taken away by death. Everything else will be snatched away, because everything else comes from without. Only awareness wells up within. That cannot be taken away. And the shadows of awareness - compassion, love - they cannot be taken away. They are intrinsic parts of awareness. You will be taking with you only whatsoever awareness you have attained.
That is your only real wealth.
-OSHO- RevolutionThere can be no political revolution, no social revolution, no economic revolution.
The only revolution is that of the spirit; it is individual. And if millions of individuals change, then the society will change as a consequence, not vice versa. You cannot change the society first and hope that individuals will change later on.
-OSHO-
