Don't invest in misery; invest in celebration

Life is significant, and there is no purpose in it! It is a purposeless significance, like a song, or a dance -- like a flower; for no purpose at all it is flowering, for nobody special it is flowering. Even if nobody passes by the road, the flower will flower, the fragrance will be spread into the winds...

Don’t Commiserate, Celebrate!
By Ma Deva Naisha

I have plenty to celebrate! I have been blessed with my beautiful, happy, healthy, adopted daughter, Sundara, who has been living here with me in Guatemala since she was born in March this year. She is truly a blessing, nothing short of a miracle...

The Eternal Dance By Ma Anand Bhagawati

This morning I heard Osho say, “…there is nothing more sacred than love and laughter, and there is nothing more prayerful than playfulness.” Don’t worry, I am not hearing voices in my head!

The Joy of Giving
By Swami Chaitanya Keerti

This week India is celebrating the Joy of Giving. The people are being encouraged to give whatever they can give to the needy. Frankly speaking, this kind of giving seems more like a duty. Duty is a four letter word. Duty tends to be something very serious and heavy, it can never be a joy. The people perform duties to gain...

Investment…Misery vs Celebration
By Swami Prem Sarito

“Jesus saves, Moses invests and Bhagwan spends,” went the headlines on the Ranch. Investment, misery, ambition etc. have not featured much in my life since I met Osho. Before I dropped out in the Sixties they were very much part of my life. Hard work, trying to keep ahead, getting to the top coupled with a marriage that was going...

Transforming small things into celebration
By Swami Yog Pradeep

The shrill sound of the alarm clock shakes me out of slumber but I reach out to turn it off. Open my eyes with an effort to check the time. Tired and smelling of alcohol, the body aches but I continue a dazed sleep. Again a musical sound wakes me with a shock and I reach for my mobile phone. Its from my office What the hell am I doing? My colleague is informing that the boss is furious and our sales meet is due in 1 hour...

All of childhood should be given to the development of the heart, all efforts should be made for the development of the heart. And for the development of the heart quite different opportunities are to be sought, not the opportunities we seek in the schools and colleges. For the development of the heart it is necessary that the child be under the open sky, near the trees, under the shelter of the moon and stars, at the river banks and sea shores, in contact with the soil, the earth. The closer the child to the vast, the more love will grow in him, and the sense and meaning of beauty will develop.

Revolution In Education, Chapter-7

The secret of receiving lies in giving, the secret of enjoyment lies in the ability to renounce, and to dissolve yourself is to become the whole. But there is a balance between the two. Everything is in balance. We certainly are able to see when it rains down from the sky, the rains coming like nectar to the earth, but the earth is not only taking, it must be giving too...

Evidence for climatic change is taken from a variety of sources that can be used to reconstruct past climates. Reasonably complete global records of surface temperature are available beginning from the mid-late 1800s. For earlier periods, most of the evidence is indirect—climatic changes are inferred from changes in indicators that reflect climate, such as vegetation, ice cores, dendrochronology, sea level change, and glacial geology. Historical & Archaeological evidence...
