Osho Meditation Quotes
- When meditation releases energy in you, it will find all sorts
of ways to be expressed. It depends on what type of talent you have.
If you are a painter and meditation releases energy, you will paint
more, you will paint madly. You will forget everything, the whole
world. Your whole energy will be poured into painting. If you are a
dancer your meditation will make you a very deep dancer. It depends
on the capacity, talent, individuality, personality. So nobody knows
what will happen. Sometimes sudden changes will happen: a person who
was very silent and was never talkative suddenly becomes talkative.
He may have been repressed. He may not have been allowed ever to
talk. When the energy arises and flows, he may start talking.
- Only meditation is not a mind trip; everything else is a mind
trip. Or, love is not a mind trip; everything else is a mind trip.
If love or meditation has happened to you, you will know what I am
indicating towards. In a deep moment of love, thinking stops. The
moment is so intriguing, the moment is so tremendously powerful, the
moment is so intensely alive, that thinking stops. You are simply in
awe, a great wonder surrounds you. Or in deep meditation, when the
moment of silence has come and you are absolutely silent, still --
no flickering, no wavering, no trembling, the flame of your
consciousness is straight -- then thinking stops. Then you are
outside the grip of the mind. Otherwise, everything is a mind trip.
- Remember it: one has to go beyond the mind because the mind is
SAMSAR, the mind is the world. It is because of your thinking that
you are missing the truth. Once thinking is stopped you are face to
face with the reality. It is the continuous screen of thinking that
is distorting reality.
- One of the essential parts of meditation is to look at the good
side of things, to look at the good side of people, to look at the
good side of incidents, so that you are surrounded with everything
good. Surrounded with all beautiful things, your growth is easier.
- Your love will deepen as your meditation deepens, and
vice-versa: as your meditation blossoms, your love will also
blossom.
- Only with meditation does love start taking on new colors, new
music, new songs, new dances -- because meditation gives you the
insight to understand the polar opposite, and in that very
understanding the conflict disappears.
- Meditation is just a courage to be silent and alone. Slowly
slowly, you start feeling a new quality to yourself, a new
aliveness, a new beauty, a new intelligence -- which is not borrowed
from anybody, which is growing within you. It has roots in your
existence.
- Enjoy simple things with total intensity. Just a cup of tea can
be a deep meditation. If you can enjoy it, the aroma of it, slowly
sipping it, the taste of it... who cares about God?
- Meditation is a silent heart, a peaceful mind which can make
life more lovable, more livable, which can make life richer in every
dimension. I don't want you to renounce anything. I want you to
rejoice in everything, whatever you are doing.
- Trust is the outcome of deep meditation. Fate is the outcome of
your failures, and a mind consolation.
- Your meditation should help you, not to criticize but to
appreciate. And if you are intelligent enough, you can appreciate in
such a way that whatever you wanted to criticize will be understood
without being said.
- My approach is not of the mind, it is of meditation. It is an
existential approach.
- You are a being. You are not to become anything. But because in
your whole life you have been a hard worker, achieving everything
that you wanted, it is just the old habit that makes meditation also
an effort, enlightenment also a goal, God also somewhere else.
- A man of meditation needs no psychoanalysis. The deeper his meditation goes, the saner he becomes and the further beyond the mind is his flight. Meditation is the greatest danger for psychoanalysis, for psychologists. They have to insist that there is nothing beyond mind because if there is something beyond mind, then their whole business can flop.
