The politicians and the priests are certainly not coming from outer space; they are growing amongst us. We also have the same lust for power, the same ambition to be holier than others...
It is true that, "by using modern technology we are hurting this vibrating, juicy earth with the dead garbage of plastic, radioactivity, bad air and so on...
“On the earth there are no boundaries, but politicians need boundaries. Religiousness has no boundaries, but priests need them. Religiousness is neither Christian nor Hindu nor Mohammedan, but then what will the priests do? They will be out of a job, completely out of a job, and millions of people depend on these boundaries...
Priest: Good morning Sir.
Politician: Good morning, Your Holiness. How can I be of any service to you?
Priest: Well, Sir, there is a problem.
Politician: Just tell me and I will fix it. We are known for working hand in hand -- aren’t we? In war times, in peace times -- in fact at any time (wink…wink)...
Sitting close to the Dhauladhar mountains in Dharmshala I am sad to watch the trees being replaced by concrete jungle. It is happening at a very fast speed. And so cruelly. I am sure the same is happening all over India and the rest of the world. Modern civilization has become totally uncivilized and insensitive...
It is not just accidental that priests are against me, politicians are
against me, parents are against me, the whole establishment is

If all of India goes on fast at least once every month, it would not only solve the nation’s critical food problem but also enhance its physical and spiritual health!
When everything our functions perfectly, we can hear a hum arise out of our being–the sound of health. A rhythmic hum means that our being is in good health...
You need not learn from others what is right and what is wrong. You need to simply go inwards. Open up small windows into your own being. Get a glimpse of who you are. The deeper you go, the clearer you will see...
As you sit down to read Osho’s Just Like That, you begin to hear him. In the pre-cable era, when cassette tapes ruled the home entertainment roost, Osho’s voice stood out as the most powerful in the spiritual talks arena. And unlike the post-cable world where one gets to see and hear so many gurus, Osho was one of a kind speaker-preacher of his times...
Zen is the only religion of life. Others are worshippers of the dead. Life contains millions of things, from very small trivia to the greatest sacred peaks of consciousness. Zen does not renounce anything but transforms it as a stepping-stone towards the higher...
Ego is a state of no-prayer: egolessness is a state of prayer. It in not a dialogue, it is not even a monologue. It has nothing to do with words; it is wordless silence. It is an open, silent sky; with no clouds, no thoughts. In prayer you are not Hindu or Christian or Mohammedan. In prayer you are not: in prayer God is, says Osho the Zen Master.
