 Osho’s Insight on Guru Nanak Most Relevant During Current Celebrations
By Swami Anand Kul Bhushan
“Nanak says there is music at His door. No, music is His door. Celebration, festivity are His practices. The whole of existence is filled with song,” says Osho.
With the 550-year celebrations of the birth of Guru Nanak in full swing now, Osho’s insights on the great Sikh guru have become most relevant.
Osho says, “The founder of Sikhism Nanak is one of those beautiful people for whom I have immense love.” This love is for all to hear and read in Osho’s most acclaimed discourses, Ek Omkar Satnam on the Japuji Saheb, which have been published in Hindi, translated into Gurumukhi and English and have topped the list of his bestseller titles both as audios and as books.

Man thinks that a woman's no means yes
Posted by : OWF - Monday, November 11, 2019 |
 The most difficult thing in life is to accept love. When somebody says, "I love you," listen. Whether you say it or not, somewhere inside you there is a no - because you cannot accept the idea that you are worth loving, that anybody can love you. He must be cheating you, he must be deceiving you he must have some ends in his mind. He wants to exploit you.

Life moves in circles, it is not linear
Posted by : OWF - Wednesday, October 30, 2019 |
Thats what everybody is aspiring to - to be the greatest in the world. Archer, painter, poet, politician, or you name it, but that is what mind aspires to: to be the greatest in the world.
Mind is an ego trip. The mind wants to stand in front of all. In fact, it IS NOT possible. Hence, mind ultimately leads into frustration. It is not possible to be first in the line because there is no line we are standing in a circle. There is always somebody who is ahead of you.
There will always be somebody who is ahead of you. You cannot come to a point where you are the first man. Even those who become presidents and prime ministers and kings - even they are never the first. In fact, the moment they start feeling they are the first, they become aware of how impotent and helpless they are.

Only intelligent people can laugh
Posted by : OWF - Wednesday, October 23, 2019 |
 Beloved Osho,
In a world ridden with hate and hostility, sadness and sorrow, you seem to be the lonely bard of love and laughter. Is this not hilarious?
It is.
Maitreya, it is hilarious but somebody has to begin it.
We want the world to be less serious and more sensitive. Sincere of course, but serious never.
We want the world to learn that the sense of humor is one of the most fundamental qualities of a religious man.
If you cannot laugh, you will miss many things in life, you will miss many mysteries.

The word 'conviction' is used in a very strange way by Sufis
Posted by : OWF - Tuesday, October 15, 2019 |
 You say, "I am a convinced Christian" or "I am a convinced Hindu" - that is not the meaning, not the Sufi meaning. Sufis say conviction only means that which arises from your innermost core, not from the outside. For example, everybody searches for happiness - that is a conviction. It is natural. Nobody has told you to seek and search for happiness, it is intrinsic to you everybody is seeking and searching for it. Nobody has told you that happiness would be possible. In fact, many philosophers are saying that happiness is not possible. Freud says that happiness is not possible. Nietzsche says that happiness is impossible - it has never happened and it cant happen. It cant happen in the very nature of things it is impossible. But still, who bothers about Nietzsche and Freud? People go on searching. Even Nietzsche went on searching, and even Freud went on searching. |
