Rather than fasting, eat less
Posted by : OWF - Tuesday, March 12, 2019 |
 In darshan, Mohan, a student from Amritsar, asks if fasting would be of any value to him.
No need for long fasts but small fasts will be good just once in a while for not more than twenty hours, not more than twice a month. Dont go on long fasts - that is destructive to the body - but once in a while, after two weeks, you can go on a one-day fast.

It is a new family growing on the earth
Posted by : OWF - Tuesday, March 5, 2019 |
 In a darshan, Osho reminds a sannyasin, who is leaving for Germany, to help sannyasins in Munich for they are part of a very special family.
It is a new family growing on the earth it needs every kind of help possible. Devote your energies to it. It is one of the greatest creative possibilities that is opening. Contribute all that you can contribute to this. Because right now you may not be aware but later on you will feel tremendously happy that you had also contributed towards something which is going to become so meaningful. It is very difficult to see the future. It is very easy to be wise when things have passed.

Reincarnation is a truth, because in existence nothing dies
Posted by : OWF - Wednesday, February 27, 2019 |
 Beloved Osho,
You speak of reincarnation. I have not experienced it, and I dont want to believe in anything I dont experience. What to do?
Who is asking you to believe in reincarnation? And why are you concerned to do something about it? There must be some lingering belief. If you dont believe in reincarnation, that is the full stop. Why bother about what to do?

Osho Junction in Ahmedabad
Posted by : OWF - Friday, February 22, 2019 |
Vistar writes about the Osho Bookshop and Meditation Center in Ahmedabad that his father started in 1994.
 My father, Dhyan Deepak (aka Purushottam K Patel), was a salesman for small machine spare parts. He used to travel across Rajasthan, Gujarat and Madhya Pradesh with his scooter and knew every street in these states.
In 1989 he received the book Udio Pankh Pasar by Osho from a friend and fell in love with our Master. After reading this first book he started to enjoy more and more reading Osho. From then on he made his business trips to wherever a meditation camp was held, combining the two, and started to enjoy having Osho in his life. |

The mind is impatience incarnate
Posted by : OWF - Monday, February 18, 2019 |
 Mind makes everything a problem otherwise life is simple, death is simple, there is not a problem at all. But mind gives the deception that every moment is a problem and has to be solved. Once you take the first step of believing that everything is a problem, then nothing can be solved because the first step is absolutely wrong.
Mind cannot give you any solution, it is the mechanism which gives you problems. Even if you think you have solved a problem, thousands of new problems will arise out of the solution. This is what philosophy has always been doing. Philosophy is the business of the mind. The moment mind looks at anything it looks with a question mark, it looks with the eyes of doubt.

Man is a miniature of the whole existence
Posted by : OWF - Wednesday, February 13, 2019 |
 HERE, O SARIPUTRA,
ALL DHARMAS ARE MARKED WITH EMPTINESS
THEY ARE NOT PRODUCED OR STOPPED,
NOT DEFILED OR IMMACULATE,
NOT DEFICIENT OR COMPLETE.
Buddha says: All dharmas are full of emptiness. That nothingness exists at everythings core: that nothingness exists in a tree, that nothingness exists in a rock, that nothingness exists in a star.
Now scientists will agree: they say that when a star collapses it becomes a black hole, nothingness. But that nothingness is not just nothingness it is immensely powerful, it is very full, overflowing.

Change your focus from having to being
Posted by : OWF - Wednesday, January 30, 2019 |
 Q: What do you have that I havent got? (and I’m not talking about the ashram and car and secretary and all that stuff.)
You must be talking about all that stuff. Otherwise why do you mention it at all? The very mentioning of it shows the mind. You must have been afraid the idea must have crossed your mind.
And I dont have any ashram, and I dont have any car, and I dont have any secretary. In fact, I dont have anything. Having is not the thing... being. I am just here. Being is my wealth, not having.
If the ashram is here, it is for you not for me. If the secretary is there, it is for you not for me. All that exists here is for you. It does not, it has not, anything to do with me.
I am enough alone.

Everything is eternal
Posted by : OWF - Wednesday, January 16, 2019 |
 In this world neither is matter ever destroyed nor the Spirit, only ego is destroyed. The body is never destroyed. This body of mine was, even when I was not. Every particle of this body was present. There is nothing new in it. When I die, not a single atom of my body will die with me. The body is eternal for nothing within it dies. Scientists say that we cannot destroy a single atom - nothing can be destroyed. Everything within the body is eternal: the water will merge into water, the fire will be lost in the fire, the space will become one with space everything is eternal. Only the shape is lost but nothing within the shape is lost. My spirit also does not die - then what dies? |
