When you don't cling to anything, there is nowhere to go - all boats have been abandoned, you cannot go anywhere; all paths have been dropped, you cannot go anywhere; all dreams and desires have disappeared, there is no way to move. Relaxation happens of its own accord. Just think of the word relax. Be, settle, you have come home.
You become that which you think you are. Or, it is not that you become it, but that the idea gets very deeply rooted and that's what all conditioning is.
A serious person can never be innocent, and one who is innocent can never be serious.
In relationship with others, it is only you mirrored.
Anywhere everywhere! Anything anyhow! just dance!
That which is lived becomes divine and that which is not lived bcms devil.
All your knowledge is dust. Knowing is your purity, knowledge is dust.
Life is not logic, life is not philosophy. Life is a dance, a song, a celebration! It is more like love and less like logic.
Fools are more healthy then the so-called wise. Thy live in the moment and they know that thy are fools, so thy are not worried about what others think about them.
Don't be serious about seriousness. Laugh about it, be a little foolish. Don't condemn foolishness; it has its own beauties.
It cannot be called freedom, a freedom which can choose only the right and not the wrong; then that is not freedom.
Never obey anyone's command unless it is coming from within you also.
That's why children look so beautiful because they are yet full of hope, full of dreams, and they have not yet known frustration.
You will come closer and closer to perfection, but you will never be perfect. Perfection is not the way of existence. Growth is the way.
Love brings freedom. Loyalty brings slavery.
Humanity will never be religious unless all organized religions disappear and religion becomes an individual commitment towards existence.
If jealousy disappears and love still remains, then you have something solid in your life which is worth having.
If I fulfill YOUR expectations, how am I going to transform you? I have to DESTROY your expectations. I have to destroy the very mind that creates those expectations. If you come to me, never come with expectations, otherwise you will be disappointed - because I have no obligation to fulfill your expectations in any way. In fact, if I see that there are some expectations, I do things DELIBERATELY to destroy those expectations. That is the price you have to pay to be with me.
Whatsoever you are waiting for, you are waiting in vain. It is not going to happen, and what is going to happen has nothing to do with your expectations and your desires. You just let it come in; don't block the way. Remove yourself out of your own way. This time, with no expectations, no desires, no hopes, just meditate.
One moment it was there, another moment it is gone. One moment we are here, and another moment we have gone. And for this simple moment, how much fuss we make! How much violence, ambition, struggle, conflict, anger, hatred, just for this small moment! Just waiting for the train in a waiting room on a station, and creating so much fuss: fighting, hurting each other, trying to possess, trying to boss, trying to dominate - all that politics. And then the train comes and you are gone forever.
Beyond mind, there is an awareness that is intrinsic, that is not given to you by the outside, and is not an idea - and there is no experiment up to now that has found any center in the brain which corresponds to awareness.
In dreams the mind is constantly giving you substitutes just to protect sleep. And the same is happening while you are awake. The mind is giving you substitutes just to protect your sanity; otherwise you will be scattered in fragments.
Unless your freedom turns into a creative realization, you will feel sad. Because you will see that you are free-your chains are broken, and you are no longer in prison; you are standing under the starry night, completely free. But where do you go?
When sex disappears the tremendous energy of love is left behind. Each ugly thing in your mind, disappearing, leaves a great treasure behind.
The more mind is filled with chattering, more sex has appeal.
