O rang barse bhige chunar wali..rang barse, Are rang barse bhige chunar wali..re
! Ab ghar jao nahi to jukham lag jayega.
Fagan ke din char holi khel mana re ||
Bin kartar pakhavaj baaai anahad kee jhankar re |
Bin sur rag chhatisoon gavai rom rom rankar re ||
Sheel santosh ki kesar gholi prem prit pichkar re |
Udat gulal lal bhayo ambar barsat rang apar re ||
Ghat ke sab pat khol diye hain lok laj sab dar re |
Mira ke prabhu girdhar nagar charan kanval balihar re ||

surati nagar men kar sel, jame atma ke mel;
Days of good fortune are few and short-lived, so make the most of them celebrating Holi, the festival of colours (in the right way).
Drum beats, produced without the use of (tapping of) hands, resound and uncountable notes (anhad naad) reverberate inside.
All the thirty-six musical notes are heard produced without voice (vocal cord); the divine melody echoes in all the pores of the body.
Solution of saffron (yellow colour) in the form of virtuosity and contentment is sprayed by means of the colour gun (syringe) of love and affection.
The inner sky has been coloured red (red colour is seen) as if the coloured powder has been sprinkled all over; countless hues have been raining torrentially (hinting at the sighting of divine light).
All the doors or coverings (of gross, subtle, causal, supra-causal etc.) have been opened, not caring for what the world (people) would think (Mira had to brave monumental opposition at the hands of orthodox elements from his family and society, but filled as she was with intense love for Lord Shri Krishna, she bothered the least for the aspersions hurled upon her by these elements).
Mirabai says that she has sacrificed everything at the lotus feet of her Master Lord Shri Krishna.
Make your residence in consciousness and meditation. Turn around from the clutches of this world and proceed to God. Walk in the region of consciousness in which there is union of the soul and God. (Kabir, Sandhya Path/Book of Prayer)

A father asks his 10-year-old son if he knows about the birds and the bees.
I don’t want to know! the child says, bursting into tears.
Promise me you won’ tell me!”
Confused, the father asks what’s wrong.
“Oh, dad, the boy sobs. When I was six, I got the ‘There’s no
Santa speech’.

3.When people say while watching a film, “did ya see that?” No Loser, I paid $12 to come to the cinema and stare at the damn floor!
4.When you are waiting for the bus and someone asks “Has the bus come yet?” If the bus came, would I be standing here,idiot???
5.when youre hanging out with someone , and all they do is text their other friends. i mean really, if you want to talk to them, go hangout with them and stop wasting my time

Osho audio mahavir vani no 6 : )Mahavir’s reaction to someone being murdered, raped etc …..REAL SANYAM ….tranquility( samyak)….no tension of extreme. No mind is sanyam..Mind itself is tension. It always keeps u excited on extremes…and u loose ur peace of mind. mind keeps changing to extremes…Roop ki devi becomes….Graph of santi…should be between kaam and raam …there is the Aha! feeling , the feeling of ahobhav : )….lobh and tyag both gives tension. Kaam and brahmacharya also gives tension. Real brahmacharya is where there is no feeling of bhahmacharya…. where there is no kaam or brahmacharya there is sanyam (peace) sanyamit swas also proves ur true sanyam. Brahmacharya is like constipation its extreme. In dhyan swas gets sanyam : ) samyam aahar, nidra and vyayam : ) Bhook aur pet ka pata chalna is bimari, na pata chalna is swasthya. Sone aur jaagne ka pata bhi na chalna swasthya hai : )…We do jyaada coz we want to show off our ego…Real ahimsa is living as if absent …nothing is known of 30 yrs of jesus’s life coz there was no event. Mahavir’s life was also of no event. Good people hav no event in their life , if there is an event its bcoz of the bad people, like ram had no event, but ravan was the hero of ramayan , he created the event. Bad person shows others by eating more, fasting, going to vaishyalaya, going to mandir, bcoz there is crowd in the temple, or else he would not go in there, he want to show off to other people. And there is tension is such a bad people’s life. saint hav no friends, u wil make friendship, u will make enemies, all are extremes, saints hav no friends no enemy. for saint all are same sum1 giving u praise and curse are all balancing…thats y mahavir do not make any friends. its called maitree…no enemity or friendship. Sanyam ka arth itna hai ki swayam mein teher jana aur man ki tension mein nahi jaana : )

Science up to the time of Albert Einstein remained very consistent, very logical. Albert Einstein is
the first mystic in the world of science; a scientific mysticism he introduced, and he disturbed the
whole edifice of the old science. After Albert Einstein, science, particularly physics which was his
field of work, is no more the same – because he accepted contradictions. In fact he said that, ”When
I had started my work I had thought that life and logic are synonymous – my work was to solve
problems logically – but as I went deeper I became aware that life is not synonymous with logic: it
contains contradictions. And in fact because of those contradictions it is beautiful, because of those
contradictions it has a certain tension; that tension gives it aliveness, it gives it possibilities to be
dynamic, moving.”
And at the end of his life he said, ”Now I cannot say that life is a problem. To call life a problem is
a logical statement, because a problem means something that can be solved through logic, if not
today then tomorrow. Sooner or later logic will find a way and the problem will be dissolved.”
Einstein said, just two days before he died that, ”Life is no more a problem for me, it is a mystery.”
And the difference between mystery and problem is immense, qualitative. A problem can be solved
logically; a mystery cannot be solved logically or in any other way. A mystery has to be lived,
accepted as it is; there is no way to solve it. Life is a mystery; it is a mystery because it is
contradictory. And thousands of contradictions are there, but those contradictions give it variety,
vastness.
The tavern was near an army camp, and the pretty barmaid was popular with the enlisted men,
especially since she preferred them to the overbearing officers.
One night a polite young private was sitting next to a cocky first lieutenant who tried to date her.
When the lieutenant went to the men’s room she put her face close to the private and whispered,
”Now is your chance, soldier!”
The private looked at the tempting red lips and then cried, ”That’s right!” And he hastily drank the
officer’s beer.
The new man can only be created with everything new: the way I talk, the way my people live, the
way they behave, all has to be totally different from the old man. The new man cannot believe in your
rotten morality – your morality has only created hypocrites. The new man can live only authentically;
he cannot be concerned with your moral and immoral ideas. He can live only meditatively. He
cannot be thought as a man of character, the way you have become accustomed to think of religious
people.
The new man will not be a man of character, the new man will be utterly characterless . But when I
say ”characterless”. please don’t misunderstand me; I am not talking the way you understand. To me
the characterless man is the only man who has character. Characterless I call him because he does
not follow any dictates from the outside. He lives according to his own light, he lives meditatively.
His character does not come from his conscience.
Conscience is an agency implanted in you by the society, it is not yours. Don’t call the conscience
as yours – it is not yours. It belongs to the Christian church, it belongs to the Hindu religion, it
belongs to the Jain philosophy, it belongs to the communist ideology. It has nothing to do with you;
it is implanted by others in you. It is a very subtle strategy to dominate you from within. On the
outside they have put a policeman, the magistrate, the court, and in the inside they have created a
conscience.
The real man, the new man, will live according to consciousness, not according to conscience. Of
course, whatsoever HIS consciousness feels right he will do, whatsoever the risk, whatsoever he
has to pay for it. Even if he has to pay with his life he will be ready to pay it, because there are higher
things than life itself. Consciousness is far more higher than life. But he will not follow conscience.
The man of conscience is known as a man of character – that’s why I call the new man characterless,
because he will not have any conscience, he will function out of consciousness. His commandments
will be coming from his own center, and when they come from your own center they give you
freedom. And out of freedom life takes a new flavor, a new beauty. You DO the right, but now
the right is not decided by others. It is no more a slavery, it is absolute freedom.
The new man will live out of meditation, out of consciousness, out of his own inner light. The new
man will be an individual, not part of any collectivity.
OSHO,
ONCE YOU TOLD A JOKE FOR PURNA WHO WAS LEAVING. I AM STAYING. WILL YOU TELL A
JOKE FOR ME TOO?
Anand Donna,
Okay,
A JEWISH RABBI DECIDED to sit in with the priest in his confessional box to learn the principles of
the Catholic religion. Two women came, one after the other, and confessed to having had intercourse
with their boyfriends, not only once but three times. For penance the priest told them to say three
Pater Nosters and put ten dollars in the poor box.
The priest was called away urgently to give last rites to a dying man. He told the rabbi to stay and
hear the confessions for the rest of the people. ”Just remember to get the ten dollars,” he said before
leaving.
I Am That 191 Osho
CHAPTER 12. A MYSTERY TO BE LIVED
The first confessor was a young girl who told the rabbi that she had had intercourse with her
boyfriend.
”Three times?” questioned the rabbi.
”Oh no, Father, just once,” replied the girl.
”Are you quite sure it wasn’t three times?”
”No, Father, only once,” insisted the young girl.
”Well,” suggested the rabbi, ”I tell you what. just say three Pater Nosters, put ten dollars in the box,
and the church will owe you two fucks.”These saints have been talking about the illusoriness of the female body, that it is ugly, it is not
beautiful: ”Just look within the skin: it is nothing but bones, blood, pus, mucus.” Whom they are
trying to prove these things? And why this continuous insistence? There seems to be a great
attraction in them for the woman’s body. They are trying to create defenses.
Upanishads never say a single word against the world; that seems to be a more truthful vision. The
world is there, it IS real. Of course its reality is relative, and that’s a fact everybody knows its reality
is relative. You love a woman today, tomorrow you may not love. Today it had seemed to you that
you will love her forever, and tomorrow all that idea has simply evaporated. Just a day before you
were ready to die for her, and a day afterwards you are ready to kill her!
He: ”Have you ever loved anyone as much as you love me, Mary?”
She: ”No, John. I have sometimes admired men for their looks or intelligence or money. But with
you, John, it is all love – nothing else.”

LOVE IS THE HARDEST THING in the world, the most arduous. It needs really guts to be in love.
That’s why for thousands of years people have escaped from the world in the name of religion. They
were not really escaping from the world, they were escaping from love. It was the fear of love that
drove them away to the deserts, to the mountains, to the monasteries. But they were not even
courageous enough to accept the fact that they are afraid of love; they covered it up with beautiful
religious words. They condemned the world rather than condemning their own cowardliness.
And humanity has worshipped these people as saints – cowards have been worshipped! And
naturally, if you worship cowards you will also become a coward. One should choose very carefully
and cautiously whom to adore, because whomsoever you adore you start becoming like him –
unconsciously, unknowingly. If a man escapes from the war we call him a coward, we condemn him
211
CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
– he has betrayed. But the people who escape from the battle of life are thought to be heroes, are
thought to be doing something great. Their basic fear is of love – and why there is so much fear of
love?
The first thing that love requires is dropping of the ego. It is easy to protect your ego in the name of
religion, in the name of virtue, morality, puritanism, character – beautiful words to decorate the ego,
to nourish and feed it. Hence your so-called saints are the most egoistic people in the world, and
you can see it. The facts are so immense, so self-evident, that there is no way to deny them. Your
saints have caused more bloodshed on the earth than anybody else, for the simple reason because
wherever there is ego there is going to be bloodshed. But when you hide behind beautiful facades
you not only deceive others, ultimately you yourself are deceived.
Love is one of the most dangerous phenomena. You have to put aside your ego, only then it can
blossom. Love is real spirituality, but when I use the word ”love” you can again misunderstand on the
other extreme – you can start thinking in terms of lust. Love is not lust either. It is not the so-called
religion and it is not the so-called worldly life. Love is different from both.
Love is a transcendence of lust and ego Religious life gives you ego and destroys love, and the
irreligious life gives you lust and destroys love. These are the two extremes: ego and lust. Exactly
in the middle of the two is love; it is neither ego nor lust, it is transcendence of both.
Lust means you are trying to exploit the other, and naturally there will be fear. The fear will be that the
other may exploit you. To get into a relationship means getting into a space where you are thinking
to exploit and the other is also thinking to exploit. Both are going to use the other as a means. Hence
there is great attraction – the opportunity to exploit the other – and great fear because you may be
exploited.
Lust can never be free of fear, the ego can never be free of fear. Hence the people who have escaped
into the deserts, into the mountains, into the monasteries, are still afraid, trembling, because you
can escape from the world but how you will escape from your nature?
Love is a basic need. You can escape from the world, but you will still need food. You can escape
from the world; that doesn’t mean that now there is no need for food. And love IS food for the soul,
just as food is food for the body. One cannot avoid love. If one avoids love one is avoiding life. To
avoid love means to commit suicide.
Your saints have committed suicide, your sinners have committed suicide. In a way they both are
same because they exist on the polar opposites.
My sannyasin has to transcend the polarity, the opposition. He has to go beyond both. Beyond lust
means never be cunning, never try to use the other. That is ugly, that is inhuman, that is irreligious.
That is violence, pure violence. To respect the other as an end unto himself or herself is the way of
the sannyasin. Avoid being cunning.
A few who had won the first prize in a state lottery was suddenly besieged by relatives and friends
who had previously ignored him. But he refused to give or lend them any money.
I Am That 212 Osho
CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
”You now have more money than you will ever spend,” said one. ”Why are you so unkind?” I have
two good reasons,” explained the lucky winner. ”First, I hate my relatives, and second, I love my
money!”
To love somebody means to respect; it means not to exploit. To love somebody means to give love
and all that you have without any idea of getting anything in return. If there is even a slight idea, a
slight motivation, it is cunningness, it is lust. Even to ask for gratitude is wrong. Love is possible only
when you love for love’s sake.
A rich widower invited his three sons and their wives to a birthday dinner at his house. As they sat
down at the table he explained why he had brought them all together.
”This is my fifty-eighth birthday, as you know, and I am about
to change my will. Because of my disappointment at not being a grandfather, I am going to give
250, 000tomyfirstgrandchild.”Thenhebowedhisheadandsaidgrace.
When he looked up he found himself alone at the table.
This is how people are behaving with each other! Their minds are full of lust, greed a thousand and
one motives. and they go on calling all this love.
Prem Parivartan, it is not anything personal to you to be afraid of love or to feel, ”Why it is so hard?”
It is everybody’s problem, but it has been created by a long, stupid conditioning. Instead of helping
you to become clear about what love is, instead of helping you to love without any motivation, you
have been taught to love with motivation. You have been taught to love in an artificial way.
The mother says to you, ”Love me because I am your mother,” as if love is a logical proposition:
”Because I am your mother, therefore you have to love me.” And the poor child feels at a loss; he
cannot understand – how to love? You may be the mother or the father; that does not mean that
love will arise inevitably. If it was arising inevitably towards the mother and towards the father and
the brothers and the sisters and the relatives, then there would have been no need to tell anybody
to love your mother, your father! It does not arise naturally; it has to be cultivated.
And the child is certainly helpless; he starts pretending. He becomes a politician from the very
beginning – he starts learning diplomacy. He becomes a follower of Machiavelli. He starts
pretending to love the mother because he needs the mother; he cannot survive without the mother.
He smiles at the father. That smile is false; it is not coming from his heart. But this is how from the
very beginning his love is poisoned.
Later on we say, ”Love – it is your wife. Love – this is your husband.” We go saying this stupid thing
to everybody: ”Love – BECAUSE… THEREFORE…”
Love is not a logical proposition; either it is there or it is not there. If it is there, help to grow it; if it is
not there, accept it. There is no other way. But don’t create an artificial phenomenon.
But the mother has lived without love; she has not been loved by the husband. He was loving her
because she was his wife, because he had to love; it was a social duty that he had to perform, it
was a formality. So she is hankering for love; she starts exploiting the child.
I Am That 213 Osho
CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
Many women are interested in children not because they want to be mothers but just because it is
easier to exploit the child for love than anybody else, because he will be absolutely dependent on
you. To be a mother is a rare phenomenon. To hanker for children is a totally different thing; it has
nothing to do with being a mother. That hankering comes from a totally different source.
To be a father is even more difficult than to be a mother, because to be a mother is at least instinctive,
biological. Father is a social invention, a social institution. A father has been created, he does not
exist in nature; hence it is even more difficult to be an authentic father. But everybody wants to be a
father – to prove his manhood, to prove that he loves his wife, to prove that he is reproductive, that
he is really a man. But these are not things that have anything to do with love.
And then there is the need to dominate the children. He cannot dominate the wife – the wife
dominates him. The wife allows him to show to the world that he is the master; she allows it because
she is so self-confident about her mastery over him that she does not bother. At the outside he can
play the game of being the husband. He knows, she knows, everybody else knows, who is the real
master.
The father is hankering to be a master; he wants to dominate somebody. He cannot dominate the
wife, he cannot dominate the boss in the office, he cannot dominate anybody. Children are needed;
it is a desire to dominate. And then he starts asking the children, ”Love me – I am your father. You
have to love!” As if love can be managed. Everything goes false. By the time you are young your
love is almost plastic, it has lost all spontaneity. It has become very cunning, very calculating.
Two women met for the first time since graduating from high school. Asked the first one, ”Have you
managed to live a well-planned life?”
”Oh yes!” said her friend. ”First I married a millionaire, then an actor. My third marriage was to a
preacher and now I am married to an undertaker.”
”What do all these marriages have to do with a well planned life?”
”One for the money, two for the show, three to make ready and four to go!”
This is a well-planned life! Remember this sutra: ”One for the money, two for the show, three to
make ready, and four to go!” This is how people are living!
You ask me, Parivartan: I WOULD LIKE TO FALL IN LOVE…
It is not a question of liking. One simply falls or one does not fall! You would like to fall in love – then
it is not going to happen. Falls don’t happen through liking – you simply stumble and you fall! You
are trying to manage a fall. You can manage, but it will not be a real fall – no fracture, nothing! You
can put a Dunlop mattress and you fall on it, but you will simply look stupid and nothing else. A little
bit embarrassed, that’s all.
You ask: I WOULD LIKE TO FALL IN LOVE, BUT I AM AFRAID OF BEAUTIFUL WOMEN…
Only that thing seems to be a little bit intelligent! Beautiful women are dangerous, ugly women are
good – they have to be good. Fall in love with an ugly woman… This is one of the observations
I Am That 214 Osho
CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
of thousands of years… whenever a woman is beautiful she need not care about being nice. It is
enough to be beautiful, why she should be nice too? She will be nasty! Ugly women are very nice,
they have to, otherwise who is going to fall in love with them? Their faces, their bodies make you
feel like running away to the very end of the world and never look back – they have to compensate.
They compensate by being nice, by being very loving. They become your mamas; they take care
as if you are a small child, they breastfeed you. They become absolutely necessary, they make you
utterly dependent, so that you can tolerate their ugliness.
Parivartan, that thing you are certainly saying with some intelligence. And when you are thinking and
planning a well planned life, then fall in love with an ugly woman. It will be difficult in the beginning,
but then it is sweet all the way! And always think of the future – that’s how calculating people do.
What it is? Just a bitter pill in the beginning, it’s okay, but then it is very health-giving. Ugly women
are medicinal, but beautiful women are sweet in the beginning and very bitter in the end.
And this is not my advice to you; Gautam Buddha also says the same thing – in a different context,
of course. He cannot be so truthful as I am. He says: The world is sweet in the beginning but very
bitter in the end, and the other world is very bitter in the beginning but very sweet in the end. It is a
totally different context, but it is significant – in your context too.
The beautiful woman looks beautiful and you are tempted, but remember the great philosophers
who say that beauty is illusory; it is nothing but just on the surface. When you see a beautiful
woman always remember the great philosophers: that inside she is nothing but bones, blood, pus,
et cetera, et cetera. Keep in your bedroom a skeleton, meditate over it, and whenever you see a
beautiful woman project the skeleton. That will scare you! And whenever you see an ugly woman
feel compassion – compassion is good, it is great service. In fact it is conquering the world! To fall
in love with an ugly woman is to be a saint, and your rewards will be great. She will be nice to you,
and always nice to you.
The only problem is, Parivartan, here you will not find an ugly woman. Somehow ugly women don’t
fall in love with me, that’s the trouble! So you are in a wrong place.
A traveling salesman once found himself in a howling storm near a washed-out bridge somewhere
in the hinter-lands. Since he could drive no further he got out of his car and went to the nearest
farmhouse. An old man answered the door.
”Can you put me up for the night?” asked the salesman.
”Yes, you can stay here,” said the farmer, ”but you will have to sleep with my son.”
”Your son?”
”That’s right.”
”Excuse me, said the salesman, ”I must be in the wrong joke!”
Parivartan, you are here in a wrong joke; you will have to find the right joke for yourself. Here you
will not find an ugly woman; that will be difficult.
I Am That 215 Osho
CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
You say: I WOULD LIKE TO FALL IN LOVE, BUT I AM AFRAID OF BEAUTIFUL WOMEN, AND SO
AFRAID OF LOVE, AND I DON’T KNOW WHY.
There is not much to know in it; it is very simple and obvious. It is not something great to contemplate
upon.
He: ”Have you ever loved anyone as much as you love me, Mary?”
She: ”No, John. I have sometimes admired men for their looks or intelligence or money. But with
you, John, it is all love – nothing else.”
At lunch one woman said to her friend, ”I don’t know what to do. The other night I dreamed that
John was having lunch with some blonde, and they were laughing together.”
”Oh, for God’s sake, Helen!” protested her friend. ”It was only a silly dream.”
”Only a dream,” repeated the other. ”But if he does such things in MY dreams, can you imagine what
he must do in his?”
Fear is natural because the woman means the beginning of the world; the woman means the
beginning of the trouble. Before the woman there is no world and after the woman is no world.
Before the woman there is all darkness, after the woman there is all light. But between the two is
the problem, and everybody has to pass through it.
The aggressive wife was raking her husband over the coals for having said something tactless when
some friends called. ”And don’t sit there,” she continued sharply, ”making fists at me in your pockets,
either!”
Among the objects displayed in the Vatican Library are two Bibles close together: a huge one about
two feet thick, the other a tiny one less than one inch square.
One of the guides tells visitors: ”This big Bible contains everything Eve said to Adam, and this little
one contains everything Adam said to Eve.”
I can’t see why you don’t understand – it is so obvious! People have always been afraid of the woman
for the simple reason that man functions through the head and the woman functions intuitively. They
can’t agree on anything; there is no possibility of agreement. The woman jumps on conclusions, and
the trouble is she is almost always right! And the man goes through a very long, arduous, logical
process to reach a conclusion, and, again, almost always he is wrong.
So to fight with a woman – that means to love a woman – you are doomed, you are bound to fail.
You cannot win a single argument because her ways of arguing are so puzzling. You want her to
sit down calmly at the table and discuss, and she starts crying and throwing things. Now you don’t
know what to do! It is your money she is destroying so you cannot throw other things because that
will be simply foolish. And the whole day you come home tortured by the world, you want some
moments of peace, and the whole day she has been getting ready, exercising. She is ready for a
fight! You come home completely defeated, and she is fresh and ready to fight. Now how can you
I Am That 216 Osho
CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
win? And you don’t want to fight at all, you want to be left alone to read your newspaper, and she
throws your newspaper.
She cannot tolerate anything that you do – except Dynamic Meditation. That comes very close –
that makes women afraid. I invented the Dynamic Meditation for poor men: at least one defense!
You can simply shout and jump and start hoo-hooing, and that she will understand. She will calm
down and she will start agreeing with you; otherwise she is going to create trouble. That is one of
the ancient feminine methods – of course she has never called it meditation. I call it meditation, to
give it a religious color!
Prem Parivartan, so these are a few clues for you. If you want a peaceful life, find a homely woman
and your life will be peaceful – of course without joy. You can’t have both together. It will be peaceful,
completely peaceful, but there will be no ecstasy in it. It will be as if you are already dead; there will
be no excitement. It will be flat, like a flat tire, stuck in one place, sitting silently doing nothing, the
spring comes and the grass does not grow by itself. How can the grass grow under a flat tire? It is
impossible! You can go on sitting and waiting, springs will come and go… That is the first possibility.
The second is: take the risk, fall in love with a beautiful woman. There will be great excitement,
ecstasy, but there will be trouble too. Heaven and hell come in the same package. You will have a
few heavenly moments, but they are worth – for all the hell that will follow, they are worth. And they
will teach you a lesson. That’s how one becomes finally a Buddha. Without the women there would
have been no Buddhas; about that I am absolutely certain. There would have been no religion, no
Buddhas, no Mahaviras. It is because of the woman.
Many women ask me the question, ”Why women have not become enlightened?” How they can
become enlightened? Who will drive them to become enlightened? That is the point. They drive
men to become enlightened. Finding no other way in life, he becomes enlightened. It is simple!
I have not answered it yet, but today I thought better to say it and settle it forever. Never ask me
again, ”Why women don’t become enlightened?” There is no need! Their function is to make people
enlightened – to drive them crazy – so sooner or later they start meditating, sooner or later they
want to be left alone. They are finished! Their dreams are shattered, they are disillusioned. It is the
great work of woman; the whole credit goes to women.
The Buddha, the Mahavira, Lao Tzu and Chuang Tzu, they were possible only because the woman
was continuously forcing them: either become enlightened or go crazy! And they decided to become
enlightened. they said, ”It is better to become enlightened.” It is good to pass through the experience.
So, Parivartan, choose a beautiful woman and fall whole-heartedly… don’t hold anything back. The
deeper you love, the sooner you will get free of it. The more passionately you go in, the more quickly
you come out.
These are the four planes which have to be understood. First is the body. On the bodily plane, the
man who lives identified with the body, if he says, ”This is it,” he will only mean food and sex and
nothing else. His ”this is it” will contain only of two things, food and sex, which are not very different
either. Food is nourishment for you; you cannot survive without food. And sex is nourishment for the
coming generations; they cannot survive without sex. Your parents’ sex has created you, your sex
will create your children. The society needs sex as food; it is food, it is survival for the society, just
as food is your survival.
Food and sex are deeply connected. Hence it always happens if somebody starts controlling sex,
becomes a celibate, he will start eating more; he will substitute his sexuality by food. It almost
always happens when women get married they start becoming fatter, for the simple reason that
before marriage they are interested in sex, after marriage they become fed up with it. They start
feeling as if the man is exploiting their bodies. Reluctantly they go into it, but they are fed up. Then
their interest changes towards food.
And the people who starve themselves for any reason – maybe naturopathy, dieting, or some
religious reason, fasting – the people who will starve themselves will become full of sexual fantasies.
I Am That 220 Osho
CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
Hence Jain monks are more full of sexual fantasies than anybody else, because of the fasting. It is
a natural change: their energy starts moving from one pole to another.
Sambuddha, anybody who knows only his body, his ”this is it” simply means food and sex. That’s
what is happening in institutes like Esalen – food and sex. That’s what is happening all over America.
Sambuddha comes from America.
The second plane is mind. With food and sex you can have pleasure and pain. On the body level,
if your body is satisfied, you will have a pleasant feeling; if it is not satisfied you will feel pain. The
second phenomenon above the body is mind. Mind goes a little higher than pleasure; it starts
experiencing happiness and unhappiness. With body there is only duality, food and sex, only two
dimensions; with mind there are many dimensions. Mind opens up a greater world: music, poetry,
painting, dance, et cetera, et cetera. It opens up many dimensions; you can enjoy more.
With the first you are just like an animal; your ”this is it” will be nothing but animalistic. With the
second, if you know that you are more than the body, higher than the body, you will have many
dimensions, more richness. You become human, you rise above animals. When you say, ”This is it,”
now it will be music, poetry, painting, dance; it will have a totally different meaning.
On the third plane is the soul, the self. With the body the duality; with the mind, manyness, multitude;
with soul only oneness, and that is meditation. You will know the real meaning of ”this is it” only when
you arrive at the third point.
And with the fourth… In the East we have called it the fourth, simply ”the fourth”, TURIYA; we have
not given it any name because no name is possible, it is inexpressible. With the fourth, TURIYA,
there is neither two nor many nor one. You can call it either wholeness or nothingness. Buddha
used the word ”nothingness”, Isa Upanishad uses the word ”wholeness”; they mean the same thing.
The zero symbolizes both, nothing and the whole. This is the state of bliss, ecstasy.
On the body level pleasure is opposed by pain; on the mind level happiness is opposed by
unhappiness; on the soul level joy is opposed by misery. But on the fourth, bliss is not opposed
by anything; bliss has no polar opposite to it.
”I am sick and tired of being left alone every weekend,” growled the golf widow at breakfast one
Saturday. ”If you think you are going out to play today…”
”Nonsense, dear,” the husband interrupted, reaching for the toast. ”Golf is the furthest thing from my
mind. Please pass the putter.”
This fact has to be meditated upon. A musician creates music, hence his sexual energy is used in
a non-sexual way. A dancer creates dance, he need not create children. He becomes a creator of
something higher – what is the need to create the lower? Even animals can create children; that is
nothing special to man. In fact, animals are far more productive – even mosquitoes can defeat you!
That is nothing special to you.
EVER NEW JOY 24 : )
Question 4
OSHO,
I HAVE TAKEN THE VOW TO REMAIN A CELIBATE MY WHOLE LIFE, BUT WHY DO I STILL
SUFFER FROM SEXUAL THOUGHTS, FANTASIES AND DREAMS?
Swami Nityananda Giri,
IT is NATURAL – it is because of your vow. Nobody can change one’s life by force. The vow simply
is a violent act against yourself. It will only repress your sex, and the repressed will take revenge;
it will come on again and again and again. You will push it from one door, it will enter from another
door. You cannot get rid of it so easily, so cheaply.
Just the other day, Morarji Desai revealed that when he was the prime minister he had visited a
nightclub in Canada, just to find out what was going on there. Now, why he should be interested in
a nightclub? And whatsoever is going on there, why he is interested in it? At the age of eighty-two!
And he had kept it a secret up to now; he never revealed it before.
A repressed sexuality will haunt you to the very end of your life. Even when you will be dying you
will be having sexual fantasies.
Swami Nityananda Giri, it is still time – beware! Life is never changed by vows, life is changed by
awareness. Never take a vow; the vow simply means that you are forcing something upon yourself.
I Am That 222 Osho
CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
Try to understand. When there is understanding there is no need to take a vow; your understanding
is enough. You see something is wrong and it drops.
Seeing is enough, understanding is enough; no other discipline is ever needed. Whenever you
need some other discipline it means your understanding is lacking, something is missing in your
understanding. You are trying to compensate your understanding by taking a vow, but the very
taking of the vow shows that you are afraid of your sexuality. Then it will come, then it is bound to
come.
And now you are asking me: WHY DO I STILL SUFFER FROM SEXUAL THOUGHTS, FANTASIES
AND DREAMS?
You must be hoping that by taking a vow all this will stop. It is your vow that is causing it! If you
have lived a natural life, if you have gone through the world and all its experiences of good and bad,
pleasure and pain, you would have learned something; you would have come out of the world with
understanding.
But for centuries the so-called saints have depended on violence. They talk about non-violence, but
they go on doing violence to themselves.
”I am sick and tired of being left alone every weekend,” growled the golf widow at breakfast one
Saturday. ”If you think you are going out to play today…”
”Nonsense, dear,” the husband interrupted, reaching for the toast. ”Golf is the furthest thing from my
mind. Please pass the putter.”
If you just force things they will erupt, they will come back.
A seventy year-old man went to see the doctor.
”I have been in practice for twenty-five years,” the doctor told him, ”and I have never heard of such a
complaint What do you mean, your virility is too high?”
The septuagenarian sighed. Pointing to his head, he said, ”It is all in my mind.”
”The virility has gone too high – it’s all in my mind.”
Now, Nityananda Giri, you have taken a vow. Your sexuality is repressed at its natural center: it
has reached in your head, and that is far more dangerous because it will poison your head. Now in
dreams, in thoughts, in fantasies it will come.
Just go for a fast one day and you will see what I mean – you will think of food the whole day.
Ordinarily you don’t think about the food at all; the food is not a problem. When you feel hungry you
eat, and then all is forgotten. But go for a fast, and suddenly food becomes your obsession. It is a
simple psychological fact.
But religious people have been really stupid: simple facts they go on denying, and they can always
rationalize. They will say, ”It is because of your past lives’ bad karmas that, Nityananda Gin, you are
I Am That 223 Osho
CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
still suffering from sexual thoughts.” They will tell you to practice yoga, stand on your head, and all
kinds of nonsense.
Just the last week I was reading about one yogi, Dhirendra Brahmachari, who goes on showing his
yoga postures on the television. And he was telling the last week to his audience that, ”Do you know
how I remain so healthy? I am pulling my anus upwards right now, but you cannot see it because
I am wearing clothes.” And then he told that his disciple, one girl who sits by his side to show yoga
postures, ”She is also holding her anus upwards, but you cannot see because she is wearing the
clothes.”
The girl must have gone red! It is good that India has not yet gone for color TV – in black and white
you cannot see whether the girl is blushing or not. But then you have to do all kinds of nonsense
things. Now pulling your anus upwards will simply force your sexual energy to go into your head;
that’s what its purpose is. It is trying to bring the sexuality towards the head, and you will be more in
a danger.
And that’s the purpose of SIRSHASANA, headstand. Standing on your head, the basic purpose is
to force your sexual energy to go towards your head. Because of gravitation, if you stand on your
head naturally your sexual energy starts moving towards the head. But how long you can stand on
your head? Sooner or later you will have to stand on your feet.
And this messing around with centers is one of the problems all the religions have been facing.
Gurdjieff, one of the great Masters of this age, used to say that man has become so ugly for the
simple reason because none of his centers is functioning in a natural way; every center is being
interfered with by other centers, they have all become entangled. His whole effort was how to
disentangle them, how to bring the energy to each center that belongs to it.
And that’s my effort here too: to bring the energy to the right center, where it belongs. When all your
centers are functioning naturally you will have a deep silence in you, you will have a subtle harmony
in your being; a joy will surround you.
Nityananda Giri, you must have lived according to the old, traditional way; your name shows that.
Gin is one of the most ancient traditions of Hindu sannyasins; you will have to come out of it. You
will have to come out of your orthodoxy, out of your superstitions.
An elderly spinster went to see her doctor and complained that her sleep was being disturbed by
dreams of a young man who was constantly following her and flirting with her.
The doctor prescribed some pills, but a couple of weeks later she was back.
”What is the matter now?” he asked gently. ”You are sleeping better now, aren’t you?”
”No,” she said, ”Now I can’t sleep because I miss that young man so much!”
Life cannot be avoided easily. The only way to go beyond is to go through. Life is an opportunity to
grow – don’t avoid it. If you avoid it you will remain retarded.
I Am That 224 Osho
CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
Now what is happening to you cannot happen to any of my sannyasins, it is impossible – because
my sannyasins are living naturally, accepting whatsoever God has given. He knows better than you.
If he has given you a sexuality, then it means that there is something to be learned through it. It is
your creative energy – don’t repress it. Refine it, certainly, make it as pure as possible, because it is
your sexual energy which will create many things in your life.
This is a well known fact, that great poets naturally find that they are transcending their sexuality.
Great painters, great dancers, great musicians have always found it to go beyond sex very easily –
but not the so-called monks and the saints. They have found just the opposite: the more they have
tried, the more they were disillusioned, the more they got deeper into the mess.
This fact has to be meditated upon. A musician creates music, hence his sexual energy is used in
a non-sexual way. A dancer creates dance, he need not create children. He becomes a creator of
something higher – what is the need to create the lower? Even animals can create children; that is
nothing special to man. In fact, animals are far more productive – even mosquitoes can defeat you!
That is nothing special to you.
Now there are two ways: either repress sex – as has been done by all the so-called religious
traditions of the world – or transform it.
I am for transformation, hence I teach my sannyasins to be creative. Create music, create poetry,
create painting, create pottery, sculpture – create something! Whatsoever you do, do it with great
creativeness, bring something new into existence, and your sex will be fulfilled on a higher plane
and there will be no repression. Let your sex become more and more love and less and less lust.
And then finally let your love also become a little higher – that is prayer. Lust is the lowest form of
sex, love higher than sex, and prayer is the ultimate transformation.
The meditative person can transform his sexuality without any antagonism. without any conflict. He
is in deep friendship with all his energies, sexual or others; he is not in any fight. Why fight with your
own energies? Love them, rejoice in them, and help them to transcend the lower forms, the animal
forms. Let them move from the body towards the turiya, the fourth.
This is a total!y different process. That’s why I am so much opposed, because I am against all the
repressive traditions, all the so-called moral, puritanistic stupidities. I simply call them stupid. I am
not a polite person. If a spade is there I call it a spade – in fact, a fucking spade! I want to be clear
and straightforward. Two plus two is four to me, neither more nor less.
A Rajneesh sannyasin went to visit an old friend living in a big town. The only lodging he could find
was in a very dilapidated hotel. The receptionist told him he would have to share a double bed and
take his breakfast – toast, jam and coffee – upstairs with him that night.
He entered the room and was surprised to find a gorgeous blonde lying naked on the bed, fast
asleep. He prepared himself for bed, said his prayers and lay down to sleep.
Fifteen minutes later, he turned over and looked in the direction of the beautiful girl. ”Should I or
shouldn’t l? No! I must not!” he said to himself, and turned over and tried to sleep.
I Am That 225 Osho
CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
Half an hour later he turned around again, looked towards the girl and said to himself, ”No, I must
not! I won’t! It is not proper!” So he turned over again and went back to sleep.
But after half an hour he sat up and said out loud, ”I just can’t resist any more. I don’t care whether
I am breaking any rules or not.” So he got up, walked over to the foot of the bed, then poured his
coffee, buttered his toast… and ate his breakfast!
This is possible only to a Rajneesh sannyasin.
Nityananda Giri, to you it will be very difficult, impossible!
Once a Zen Master was asked, ”What sort of sex life do monks get?”
The Zen Master said, ”Nun!”
Don’t repress, try to understand your sexual energy. And you will be surprised, immensely surprised,
that it is not your enemy, it is your friend. It is not a curse, it is a blessing, because it is the source of all
your creativity. Have you known any impotent person to be creative? Have you known any impotent
person to create great music, painting. poetry? And why the so-called monks down the ages have
not been creative? They have not contributed anything to the earth, they have not enriched the
earth. They have not been a blessing; on the contrary, they have proved a curse. Why? – because
being repressive of their sexuality they became uncreative, they cannot create.
Creativity is sexual, basically sexual. When the painter gets lost into his painting it is the same
orgasmic joy that two lovers have when they meet and merge into each other; for a moment they
are no more separate. The painter gets the same joy, longer, deeper, far more profound, when he is
lost with the painting. A dancer comes to the highest point…
Hence my emphasis on dance and music here in my commune. I want everybody to be a dancer,
a singer, for the simple reason because that is the most natural, spontaneous way of transforming
your sex. When the dancer is completely lost, when there is only dance and no dancer left, he
experiences the greatest orgasm, more total than any sexual orgasm can ever be.
Nityananda Giri, if you accept your sexuality, if you embrace it with deep love and gratitude towards
God, knowing that it his gift so that there must be something in it which has to be discovered… it
is not to be rejected. Rejecting it will make you uncreative, and the uncreative person remains a
miserable life. That’s why your saints look so sad, with such long faces, almost dead and stinking.
Look again – look again into your own being, into your own existence, and you are in for a great
surprise.
A man was asked by his wife to bring home a live chicken for a special meal she was going to
prepare. He bought the chicken after work and was on his way home when he realized that he
had forgotten his front door key. He knew his wife would not be home for a few more hours, so he
decided to pass the time by going to the cinema.
He could not carry the chicken inside so he stuffed it down the front of his trousers, then bought a
ticket and went in. He sat down towards the front of the cinema, next to two old ladies. He soon

CHAPTER 14. WITHOUT WOMEN – NO BUDDHAS
became very engrossed in the film and did not notice that the chicken had poked its head through
his fly buttons.
”Winifred,” whispered one of the old ladies, nudging her friend. ”Look at that big thing poking through
this guy’s fly!”
Winifred grunted, ”Ah, Millie, when you’ve seen one, you’ve seen them all!”
”I know that,” replied Millie, ”but have you ever seen one that eats popcorn?”

A clever college student had lost a textbook and put up a notice on the students’ bulletin board. But
instead of the customary LOST heading he captioned his notice SEX.
Below it he wrote: ”Now that I have your attention…”
Who bothers to read the bulletin board? There are so many notices. And who bothers to read the
notices with the captions ”Lost”? But if the caption is ”Sex”, then it is very difficult – difficult for the
students, difficult for the professors difficult for the vice-chancellor, difficult for the chancellor to miss.
He has to read it.
I am logical only so that ”Now I have your attention…”
”Why do you look so sad?” Johnny asks his friend.
”Well,” his friend replies, ”my wife drove herself over a cliff!”
”That’s horrible!” exclaims Johnny.
”But that’s not the worst of it,” continues the friend. ”It was a brand new Mercedes!”
EVER NEW JOY 23 : )
OSHO,
I AM AN EX-CATHOLIC MONK I AM LEAVING FOR MY COUNTRY TOMORROW. WILL YOU TELL
ME FEW JOKES FOR MY OTHER CATHOLIC FRIENDS?
John,
The first:
A CATHOLIC, a communist and a black Southern Baptist arrived at the Pearly Gates on the same
day. Saint Peter came out and the Catholic threw himself face down in front of him and cried, ”Oh,
Saint Peter, great have been my sins! I don’t deserve to enter Paradise!”
”Have faith,” said Saint Peter, ”for our Lord is both great and forgiving. Spell God!”
The Catholic was taken aback, but waveringly said, ”G-o-d.” Trumpets sounded, an angelic choir
began to sing, and the Pearly Gates swung open. The Catholic got up amazed and walked into
heaven.
The communist, watching all this, quickly fell to his knees and started to cry, ”Oh, Saint Peter, I have
been a communist all my life. I have not been in a church all these years – surely I don’t deserve to
get into heaven!”
Saint Peter smiled and said, ”Brother, all men are the same in the eyes of God. He is great and
forgiving. Just spell God!”
The communist took a deep breath and quickly said, ”G-o-d.” No sooner had he finished than once
again the trumpets sounded and the great choir of angels sang out. The Pearly Gates opened and
the communist happily entered heaven.
The black Southern Baptist immediately threw himself on the ground, started crying and beating
his chest: ”Oh, Saint Peter, it is no good! I’ve been a wicked man, drinkin’ and runnin’ with loose
women. But I’ve been to church every Sunday and I reads the good book!”
Saint Peter looked at the black man and smiled, ”All right, brother, God is great and forgiving. To
enter through these gates all you have to do is spell Engelbert Humperdinck!”
Second:
A monk from a Catholic monastery wrote to his mother, ”On cold mornings I often miss the old pot
under the bed.”
I Am That 239 Osho
CHAPTER 15. EVERYBODY HAS HIS UNIQUENESS
She wrote back, ”On cold mornings you often missed it at home too!”
Third, and the last:
Sister Mary was taking tea to Mother Superior. When she reached Mother Superior’s room she
bumped the tray and spilt the tea.
”Oh, shit!” Sister Mary said. ”I spilt the tea… oh damn, I said shit… oh Christ, I said damn… oh fuck,
I said Christ!”
I Am That 240 Osho
But misunderstanding is always possible. Because I say, ”Don’t try to improve, doing nothing is the
best.” that does not mean that you become inactive. It simply means you don’t make any effort to
improve upon things, you relax. You will be still doing things, but now there will be no effort in your
doing, there will be no doer in your doing; they will be simply happening.
When you will feel hungry you will eat; that is not doing. When you are not feeling hungry and you
force yourself to eat, that is doing. Forcing is doing. When you feel sleepy you sleep; that is not
doing. But when you are not feeling sleepy and you force yourself to go to sleep, that is doing. When
you are feeling fast asleep, then trying to wake up is doing. When the sleep is over of its own accord
and your eyes open up, that is not doing.
Eat when hungry, drink when thirsty, sleep when sleepy. Let go! Don’t try to struggle, don’t make life
a conflict. Enjoy it! And then each moment is precious and you will never feel helpless and you will
never feel that nothing is getting better, because you are not expecting it to get better.
Now he says – he wrote a letter again – ”I know that I had promised you to take sannyas on 25th…”
And that time he had written that, ”It is because of my birthday. And secondly, I would like to ask
my mother’s permission. I know she will say yes, so there is no problem about that.” And now he
says, ”My mother has said yes, but she says she will not be very happy about it. She says, ’Yes, if
you want to take sannyas you can, but I will not be very happy about it.’ And I don’t want to hurt her
feelings.” And moreover, one of his gurus, Kammu Baba, had told him few years before – he is dead,
he is no more alive – that ”Never hurt the feelings of your parents.” ”… so I cannot hurt her feelings.”
Mind goes on finding rationalizations. It never sees things directly; it tries to evade. Now if Kammu
Baba is right then Buddha was wrong. He hurt very much the feelings of his parents, his wife, his
child. Then Mahavira was wrong, then Jesus was wrong, then Nanak was wrong. Then except
Kammu Baba… and I don’t know whether Kammu Baba has said it to Ajai Krishn or he has invented
it, or he has thought that he had said it. Then the whole spiritual tradition will be wrong.
Jesus says to his disciples, ”Unless you hate your parents you cannot follow me.” And that is
nothing…
Once it happened that a great king, Presenjit, came to see Gautam Buddha. When he was sitting
in front of Buddha, a man came, touched Buddha’s feet – a very old man, one of his disciples, a
sannyasin – and he said that, ”I am going now on a long journey to spread your message. Bless
me.”
Buddha looked at Presenjit and said, ”This man is the answer to your question.”
Presenjit was asking that, ”I would like to become a sannyasin, but my old mother may feel hurt –
she is too old.”
Buddha said, ”Look at this man. He has killed his father and mother both!”
Presenjit was very much disturbed: Killed? Father and mother? And Buddha is appreciating the
man! When the man left Presenjit said, ”I don’t understand! You praised that man and you said he
has killed his father and mother!”
Buddha said, ”Yes, psychologically. Not really, not physically, but deep inside he has dropped the
clinging with the father and the mother?”
Ajai Krishn is forty-five years old and still clinging with the apron of the mother! Now when he is
going to become mature? It is time. One should kill… not the mother on the outside, but the clinging
in your inner world.
That’s what Jesus means when he says, ”Unless you hate your father and mother…” He does
not mean that hate your father and mother: he means deep down you have to uproot the whole
conditioning, the whole clinging, the whole attachment. Only then you can become mature,
I Am That 247 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
centered, grounded. Only then you can be an individual in your own right. But mind goes on
finding subtle strategies to avoid reality.
At the marriage counselor’s the husband accused his wife of being frigid.
I Am That 248 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
”That’s not true!” she said. ”I don’t disapprove of sex relations.” Then turning from her husband to
the counselor she continued, ”But this sex fiend expects it every month!”

26 October 1980 am in Buddha Hall
The first question:
Question 1
OSHO,
I AM FEELING HELPLESS. I DON’T KNOW WHAT I CAN DO ANY MORE. IT IS AS IF
EVERYTHING I DO WON’T CHANGE THIS, IT ONLY MAKES THINGS WORSE. BUT ALSO
DOING NOTHING DOES NOT MAKE THINGS BETTER. YOU SAY THAT EMPTINESS IS BLISS.
FOR ME IT SEEMS TO BE DULL AND BORING; IT IS LIKE BEING DEAD. WHEN THERE IS
NOTHING I CANNOT SEE ANY BEAUTY IN IT. I AM FED UP WITH IT, I WANT TO GET OUT OUT.
PLEASE ANSWER ME, BUT PLEASE DON’T ANSWER ME LIKE THIS: THAT TAKING SANNYAS
WOULD CHANGE EVERYTHING AND MAKE EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL. THANK YOU.
Alexander,
THE FIRST THING is to understand that life remains the same whatsoever you do. It is already
perfect; it cannot be improved upon. The very idea of improving it is egoistic; it is the cause of our
misery. It is the way it is – there is no need to improve it. Enjoy it! Don’t waste your time in improving
it. If you try to improve it you will feel helpless, obviously, because you will be failing again and again,
falling short. And your desire can never be fulfilled – it isn’t in the very nature of things.
AIS DHAMMO SANANTANO, Gautam the Buddha has said: This is the way things are. Whenever
people used to ask him, ”How can we improve upon things?” he will always say, ”AIS DHAMMO
SANANTANO.” There is no need to improve, there is no way to improve.
241
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
And in this Isa Upanishad we have come across this truth again and again: AUM. That is perfect,
that is whole. This is perfect, this is whole. The whole comes from the whole, the perfect comes
from the perfect. How it can be imperfect? The whole comes from the whole, yet the whole remains
behind. Everything is as it should be.
Unless this is understood… Buddha calls it TATHATA, suchness. The rose is rose, the marigold is
marigold. The effort to make a marigold a rose is doomed to fail. Then there is helplessness, misery,
failure. The ego feels hurt, wounded.
This is the first thing: a deep, total acceptance of things as they are. Then life enters into a different
dimension – the dimension of joy, celebration – because then the whole energy is available to dance,
sing, to be.
Now the whole energy is engaged into improving, into changing, into making things better.
You say: I AM FEELING HELPLESS.
You are causing this helplessness yourself.
You say: I DON’T KNOW WHAT I CAN DO ANY MORE.
You have done already enough; that’s why you are feeling helpless. Stop doing! And when I say stop
doing it does not mean do nothing. That is the second thing to be understood: when I say stop doing,
don’t misunderstand me – I am not saying do nothing. ”Stop doing” simply means stop pushing the
river, flow with the river. It is already going towards the ocean. It will take you to your destiny,
whatsoever it is – XYZ, it is unpredictable. Where the river will enter the ocean nobody knows, when
and where, and it is good that nobody knows. It is good because life remains a mystery, a constant
surprise. One feels wonder on every step; a great awe surrounds one.
But misunderstanding is always possible. Because I say, ”Don’t try to improve, doing nothing is the
best.” that does not mean that you become inactive. It simply means you don’t make any effort to
improve upon things, you relax. You will be still doing things, but now there will be no effort in your
doing, there will be no doer in your doing; they will be simply happening.
When you will feel hungry you will eat; that is not doing. When you are not feeling hungry and you
force yourself to eat, that is doing. Forcing is doing. When you feel sleepy you sleep; that is not
doing. But when you are not feeling sleepy and you force yourself to go to sleep, that is doing. When
you are feeling fast asleep, then trying to wake up is doing. When the sleep is over of its own accord
and your eyes open up, that is not doing.
Eat when hungry, drink when thirsty, sleep when sleepy. Let go! Don’t try to struggle, don’t make life
a conflict. Enjoy it! And then each moment is precious and you will never feel helpless and you will
never feel that nothing is getting better, because you are not expecting it to get better.
It is already the best world that can be, the most perfect existence that ever can be. But your ego
wants to improve upon things. You think you know better than existence itself? You are just a small
part of it, you are just a small ripple in the infinite ocean – and you want to improve upon the ocean?
I Am That 242 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
That is just being foolish! Relax! Dance in the sun while you are! Sing a song! It is beautiful to be
and it is also beautiful not to be. When the wave rises, good. For a moment enjoy the sky, the air,
the wind, the sun, the rain. And when the wave disappears, good; go into deep rest.
Nothing is ever born and nothing ever dies. Things only move between manifestation and
unmanifestation. They become visible, they become invisible. To become invisible is a resting
place. Just as after each day you need deep sleep in the night to rejuvenate you, to make you again
young and fresh, in the same way after each life you need death. Death is a deeper sleep and
nothing else. After each life your body is so tired, you need a new body, a new manifestation The old
wave disappears, but the water in that wave remains in the ocean; it will come again in a new wave.
The old is continuously becoming new – allow it. You simply allow life and go with it in deep trust.
This is what I call religiousness – this trust. It is not a belief. Belief is always in dogmas, creeds,
theories, philosophies, ideologies. This is not belief, this is simply trusting existence. We have come
from it, it is our source. We are not outsiders, we are insiders. And we will go back to the source
– it is our source. Coming out of it is good, going back into it is good. All is good! To feel it brings
rejoicing – all is good. That’s the meaning of trusting in God: that all is good.
You are unnecessarily getting into trouble; you are trying something absurd. You are trying to pull
yourself by your own shoestrings. You will feel helpless – you cannot do it. You are like a dog
chasing its own tail; it is not possible. The faster the dog will jump, the faster the tail will also move
away. It will drive the dog crazy!
It is said that if you want a philosopher to remain engaged, just give him a piece of paper and on
both the sides write P.T.O., so he will look on this side and then turn it over, and then P.T.O. again is
there, so he will turn it over… and he will go crazy – but he will remain occupied!
You are being too much philosophical. You ask me:
YOU SAY THAT EMPTINESS IS BLISS…
I don’t say – it is so! AIS DHAMMO SANANTANO. And what you are saying, you are saying. I am
not saying, ”Emptiness is bliss.” What can I do? It is! It is my experience, and what you are saying is
simply a statement without any experience. You have not experienced emptiness, but now see what
a great problem you have made out of something which you have not experienced.
You say: FOR ME IT SEEMS TO BE DULL AND BORING.
As if you have experienced it! Think over the matter again. Have you ever experienced emptiness?
And in emptiness how can there be boredom? If there is boredom it is not empty – it is full of
boredom! It there is dullness it is not empty; the mind is there feeling dull, feeling bored. Emptiness
cannot be boring, it cannot be dull. Emptiness is simply empty – of everything. You cannot say
anything about it. But you have not experienced it, you have just thought about it.
Yes, if you think about emptiness it will look boring, it will look dull, it will look dead. But the
people who have experienced it – Buddha, Jesus, Zarathustra, Lao Tzu, Chuang Tzu, Mahavira,
Bodhidharma, Bahauddin, Nanak, Kabir – not a single person has said that it is boring. You are
I Am That 243 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
really an exception! If you have experienced it then you are denying all the awakened people – but
you have not experienced it at all. I can say it because I know what emptiness is.
When I say emptiness is bliss I am not saying that emptiness is full of bliss – don’t misunderstand
me. ”Emptiness is bliss” is simply making you aware of their synonymousness. You can call it empty
or you can call it bliss; both the words are synonymous. Emptiness is bliss because there is nothing
which can bore you, which can make you feel dull, which can create anxiety, which can make you
afraid, which can create anguish. There is nothing at all! Because there is nothing, the whole mind
has gone, that state is called bliss. One can call it emptiness, one can call it bliss; these are just two
expressions for the same phenomenon.
And, Alexander, don’t be a coward. You have such a great name – Alexander – don’t be a coward!
But Alexander himself was a coward in this sense. He was told by Diogenes, one of the greatest
mystics of his time that, ”Stop this foolish effort to conquer the world. Look at me! Without
conquering the world I have conquered!”
And Alexander looked at Diogenes and felt the beauty of the man, the grace of the man. He was
lying naked on the bank of a small river, taking a morning sunbath. The place was absolutely silent,
and Diogenes looked so beautiful that Alexander felt jealous for the first time in his life. Alexander
had everything, he had almost conquered the whole world. Just India was left out, so he was
coming towards India and was certain that he will conquer India too. But he felt jealous of Diogenes,
a naked fakir with nothing, not even a begging bowl. Buddha at least used to carry a begging bowl,
but Diogenes has thrown the begging bowl also because one day he saw a dog drinking water from
the river, and he immediately threw the begging bowl in the river, saying to the dog, ”Master, you
have taught me a great lesson! If you can manage without a begging bowl, why cannot I?”
He had nothing, and yet he had something which was missing in Alexander. Alexander immediately
said that, ”If next time God will ask me to come back to the world, I would like to be Diogenes rather
than Alexander.” But, mind you, he said ”next time” – postponing for the next life.
Alexander laughed because he has said something great. He thought Diogenes will appreciate –
but Diogenes said, ”Don’t be a fool! Don’t try to deceive me! What do you mean, ’next time’? If you
are so much interested in being Diogenes, why not now? Now or never! And who is preventing you?
God is not preventing you. This bank is big enough for both of us. Throw the clothes in the river, lie
down, take the sunbath! And you need not even bother about food, because I go to beg, and I will
bring enough for you too. You simply rest here, forget all about the world. Be Diogenes right now!”
Alexander said, ”That is difficult. Right now I cannot do it, but I will come one day. First I have to
finish my conquest – I have to conquer the whole world!”
And Diogenes said, ”Two things I have to say. One: remember, if you have conquered the whole
world, then what you will do?” And Alexander was only thirty-two at that time. ”What you will do
when you have conquered the whole world? Do you know? There is no other world! You will be at a
loss! At least right now you are occupied, busy, without business, but if you conquer the whole world
then the real problem will arise: what to do next? – because there is no other world.”
And it is said, Alexander felt sad even listening to the idea that there is no other world. He was
shocked. He felt immediately a great sadness descend on him and he said, ”Don’t talk such sad
I Am That 244 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
things to me. First let me conquer this and then I will see. And I will come to see you when I have
conquered the whole world.”
Diogenes said, ”Nobody comes back – you will not be able to come back. Don’t be so certain about
the future. One can be certain only about this moment.”
And actually it happened that way: Alexander died on the way; he never reached back home. He was
only thirty-three when he died, and he really died for the same reason that Diogenes has pointed
to him. The moment he conquered India he became very much depressed, so much so that he
became an alcoholic; he started drinking too much. What to do now? He died of too much drinking,
he died as an alcoholic. He killed himself – it was suicide. Otherwise he was perfectly healthy, but
he was continuously drinking day and night.
Your name is Alexander – be a little aware! Don’t do the same foolishness again. You have come
the next time, and still you don’t want to become a sannyasin! And I am nobody else but Diogenes
asking you: Take the jump, become a sannyasin! Nothing will change, but everything will become
beautiful. Thank YOU!
Buddha insists on calling it emptiness, shunyata, and the Upanishads emphasize on calling it bliss
– and they are talking about the same phenomenon. Buddha’s insistence is far better because it is
more applicable to you. You are bound to misunderstand the Upanishad because the Upanishad’s
way of telling is positive. It says it is bliss, and in you certainly it creates greed; you start searching
for bliss. You are miserable and you want bliss, you desire bliss; you start making every effort to
improve things so that you can be blissful. You go astray because of the word ”bliss” and its positivity.
Buddha became aware of this phenomenon. Twenty-five centuries had passed between Buddha
and Isa Upanishad. Isa Upanishad is perfectly right – it is bliss – but to say it to you is not right
because you are bound to misunderstand it. Hence Buddha changed the whole expression; he said
it is emptiness.
Calling it emptiness is of tremendous importance because nobody wants emptiness – Alexander
does not want emptiness. It does not create greed in you. Who will be greedy for emptiness? The
very negativity of it destroys greed, desire, ambition and ego.
And again and again Buddha was asked, ”What happens when one becomes empty?” and he will
remain silent. He will say, ”Don’t ask me. You become empty and SEE what happens.” He will never
say, ”Bliss happens,” for the simple reason because you will immediately jump upon the idea of bliss.
And to you bliss will mean only pleasure, at the most happiness – something of the mind, something
of the body – but it will not be exactly what bliss is.
It is neither of the body nor of the mind. It is a transcendence – a transcendence of all that you know,
of all that you have experienced, of all that you are. It is better to call it emptiness; it cuts you from
the very roots.
But twenty-five centuries have passed since Buddha again, and people are so stupid that they will
misunderstand everything. They misunderstood the Isa Upanishad which talks about bliss. Buddha
tried to move to the other extreme, started calling the ultimate state emptiness, shunyata, just zero,
I Am That 245 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
pure zero and nothing. It worked for a time being, while he was alive. It always works when the
Master is alive – it works. Any method becomes magical when the Master is alive, any word becomes
significant when the Master is alive. It is the charisma, it is the presence of the Master that makes
things work. It s his magic.
Once Buddha was gone, the same people who have misused the word ”bliss” started misusing the
word ”emptiness”. People like Alexander, they started thinking emptiness is boring, emptiness is
dull, emptiness is nothing but death. What is the point of attaining emptiness? Without knowing
anything about emptiness they start condemning it.
Buddhism was uprooted from India for the simple reason that Buddha has used total negative
terms, and India has become accustomed of positive, affirmative terminology. Buddha seemed
very strange, not belonging to the tradition, antagonistic to tradition. He was trying to help.
Now I am trying to do both the things together. I am saying bliss is emptiness – another effort.
Upanishads said it is bliss, Buddha said it is nothingness. You have escaped from both; I am trying
to catch hold of you from both the sides. I say emptiness is bliss, bliss is emptiness.
You are saying things which you have not experienced at all. You say:
WHEN THERE IS NOTHING I CANNOT SEE ANY BEAUTY IN IT.
When there is nothing, do you think you will be there? When there is nothing you will not be there!
There will be something which cannot be called ”I”, which cannot be identified with the ego. So who
will be there to see beauty? There will not be beauty and there will not be beauty and there will
not be the seer, there will be just silence: no I, no thou, no subject, no object – no duality… a pure
oneness, an utter silence.
But you got caught, you got caught in your own words.
YOU SAY: I AM FED UP WITH IT.
As if you are living in it – you are fed up with it. You have not even tasted a single drop of nothingness,
emptiness, and you are fed up with it. How tricky is the mind! How cunning is the mind! And how
politically it finds ways to avoid certain things. How it rationalizes!
Just one month before one friend, Ajai Krishn Lakhanpal, has asked me – he had written a letter –
”Osho, I am ready to take sannyas today. If you give me sannyas today I am willing, I am ready to
surrender. But my own choice will be,” he said, ”that I would like to take sannyas after one month,
on 25th October, because that is my birthday.”
Seeing his ”but”… because I don’t like ”buts”. Otherwise, when somebody asks for sannyas I insist
NOW. What can be said about tomorrow? You cannot be sure of tomorrow. Tomorrow may come,
may not come. Even if it comes your mind is constantly changing. How can you be sure of tomorrow?
Tomorrow your mind may give you some other ideas.
Seeing his ”but”… it was the first time I allowed him, the first person I have allowed – just for a
change, to see what happens. I said, ”Okay, 25th October, settled. You take sannyas 25th October.”
I Am That 246 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
Yesterday was 25th October. I told Sheela to call Ajai Krishn and ask him, ”What happened? 25th
has come!” Now he has found rationalizations. I was expecting; that ”but” was enough to show me.
He has found rationalizations.
Now he says – he wrote a letter again – ”I know that I had promised you to take sannyas on 25th…”
And that time he had written that, ”It is because of my birthday. And secondly, I would like to ask
my mother’s permission. I know she will say yes, so there is no problem about that.” And now he
says, ”My mother has said yes, but she says she will not be very happy about it. She says, ’Yes, if
you want to take sannyas you can, but I will not be very happy about it.’ And I don’t want to hurt her
feelings.” And moreover, one of his gurus, Kammu Baba, had told him few years before – he is dead,
he is no more alive – that ”Never hurt the feelings of your parents.” ”… so I cannot hurt her feelings.”
Mind goes on finding rationalizations. It never sees things directly; it tries to evade. Now if Kammu
Baba is right then Buddha was wrong. He hurt very much the feelings of his parents, his wife, his
child. Then Mahavira was wrong, then Jesus was wrong, then Nanak was wrong. Then except
Kammu Baba… and I don’t know whether Kammu Baba has said it to Ajai Krishn or he has invented
it, or he has thought that he had said it. Then the whole spiritual tradition will be wrong.
Jesus says to his disciples, ”Unless you hate your parents you cannot follow me.” And that is
nothing…
Once it happened that a great king, Presenjit, came to see Gautam Buddha. When he was sitting
in front of Buddha, a man came, touched Buddha’s feet – a very old man, one of his disciples, a
sannyasin – and he said that, ”I am going now on a long journey to spread your message. Bless
me.”
Buddha looked at Presenjit and said, ”This man is the answer to your question.”
Presenjit was asking that, ”I would like to become a sannyasin, but my old mother may feel hurt –
she is too old.”
Buddha said, ”Look at this man. He has killed his father and mother both!”
Presenjit was very much disturbed: Killed? Father and mother? And Buddha is appreciating the
man! When the man left Presenjit said, ”I don’t understand! You praised that man and you said he
has killed his father and mother!”
Buddha said, ”Yes, psychologically. Not really, not physically, but deep inside he has dropped the
clinging with the father and the mother?”
Ajai Krishn is forty-five years old and still clinging with the apron of the mother! Now when he is
going to become mature? It is time. One should kill… not the mother on the outside, but the clinging
in your inner world.
That’s what Jesus means when he says, ”Unless you hate your father and mother…” He does
not mean that hate your father and mother: he means deep down you have to uproot the whole
conditioning, the whole clinging, the whole attachment. Only then you can become mature,

CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
centered, grounded. Only then you can be an individual in your own right. But mind goes on
finding subtle strategies to avoid reality.
Now, Alexander, you are saying that, ”I AM FED UP WITH NOTHINGNESS, EMPTINESS. I WANT
TO GET OUT OF IT.”
And you must have believed what you are writing. You have no idea of nothingness and you are fed
up with it, and you want to get out of it! The real thing is how to get into it!
And you ask me: PLEASE ANSWER ME, BUT PLEASE DON’T ANSWER ME LIKE THIS, THAT
TAKING SANNYAS WOULD CHANGE EVERYTHING AND MAKE EVERYTHING BEAUTIFUL.
No, taking sannyas will not change anything hut it will certainly make everything beautiful! The world
remains the same, just the vision, the attitude, the approach changes.
The second question:
Question 2
OSHO,
POPE JOHN PAUL HAS STATED RECENTLY THAT IF A MAN LOOKED LUSTFULLY EVEN AT
THE WOMAN WHO IS HIS WIFE HE COULD LIKEWISE COMMIT ADULTERY IN HIS HEART.
WHAT DO YOU SAY ABOUT IT?
Gayatri,
WHAT CAN BE said about it? A Polack is a Polack is a Polack! Pope or no pope, a Polack remains
a Polack. Now this is the ultimate in stupidity, one cannot surpass it: even to look at your own wife
with desire is adultery! Then why in the first place one should get married?Just to commit adultery?
In a way he has made a very difficult thing simple. One of Milan’s newspapers seems to be far more
wiser. The newspaper writes: ”Life is hard for the adulterer – an endless round of cover-ups, tricks,
juggling of the daily calendar and the need to buy useless and expensive presents for two women
at once. Now the Pope has removed all these vows, because you can have infidelity in your own
house!” This seems to be far more intelligent. It is really beautiful and juicy to have adultery with
your own wife. A great idea!
But these repressed people are bound to do such things.
I have come to know that for the whole year, the whole past year, in his every weekly sermon he
has been talking about sex – for the whole year condemning, condemning… Now why he should be
so much concerned about sex, for one year continuously condemning? There must be something
inside him, some wound which has not healed.
At the marriage counselor’s the husband accused his wife of being frigid.
I Am That 248 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
”That’s not true!” she said. ”I don’t disapprove of sex relations.” Then turning from her husband to
the counselor she continued, ”But this sex fiend expects it every month!”
The woman must have been a Catholic! The Catholics have done one of the greatest harms to
humanity. Christianity has been one of the most repressive religions; what has happened out of this
repressiveness is just the opposite of it. It was bound to happen, it was inevitable. The pendulum
has moved to the other extreme in the West, and the responsibility wholly and solely rests on the
shoulders of the church. People have become indulgent, people have become really too much
obsessed with sex.
For two thousand years Christianity. particularly the Catholic Church, has been repressing,
condemning. But now a point has come when the volcano has erupted. What you see now in
the West is sheer indulgence, ugly.
Sex is beautiful, but it can become ugly in two ways: either you become repressive – it becomes
ugly; or you become indulgent – it becomes ugly. Sex is beautiful if it is accepted naturally, as part
of life. there is no need to condemn it, there is no need to praise it either. When humanity is going
to accept things easily, in a relaxed way?
But these people have not learned any lesson, and they go on interpreting scriptures according to
their own inner turmoil.
What the Polack Pope was doing was simply making a commentary on one of the statements of
Jesus. The statement is totally different, but just a jugglery of words, just a little change, and the
whole thing has gone wrong.
This is the original statement of Jesus. Jesus says: ”You have heard it was said, ’You shall not
commit adultery.’ But I say to you that everyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already
committed adultery with her in his heart.”
Now the woman is one thing and wife is totally another. The Polack has read ”wife” instead of
”woman” – your own wife! And of course he can play with words. He can say, ”Of course your wife
is also a woman.” True, but what is the meaning of her being your wife? why one gets married? To
live a natural, untroubled sexual life. But to change the word ”woman” into ”wife” is really ugly; it is
against Jesus, it is not true to his message. But you cannot expect anything better from the Polacks.
How do you recognize a Polack in a busy shoe store?
He is the one who tries to put on the shoe boxes.
Now trying to change woman into wife is exactly like that – trying to put on the shoe boxes instead
of the shoes!
Two Polacks are driving a lorry which is three meters high. They drive past a road-sign indicating a
tunnel up ahead two meters high. ”Just ignore the sign, Sol. I know that at this time of the day the
police are not going to be there!”

CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
Wykowsky, the window washer, was called in by a homeowner to give an estimate. ”How much to
clean the windows on the ground floor?”
Wykowsky pulled out a pad, scribbled a minute and replied, ”Two dollars a window.”
”On the second floor?” asked the homeowner.
Again Wykowsky wrote on the pad and answered, ”One dollar fifty cents a window.”
”And the basement?”
”Five dollars a window,’ said Wykowsky.
”Wait a minute!” said the homeowner. ”How come two dollars for the windows on the first floor, a
buck and a half for the second floor, and you want five dollars for each of the basement windows?”
”Mister,” said the Polack, ”don’t you realize the size of the hole I have to dig to put the ladder in?”
At a Polish wedding:
The ceremony had taken place in the ballroom of the town hotel. The newly married husband came
down from the bridal suite and said to a buddy, ”My best friend he upstairs in bed with my wife!”
”What do you… what you going to do about it?” asked his pal.
”Nothing,” replied the Polack. ”He is so drunk he thinks he be me.”
The Polack was on his honeymoon, but he was too inexperienced to know the difference between
love and nymphomania, because he had just escaped from a Catholic monastery.
The first morning after the wedding he rose, walked over to the window of the hotel, and raised the
shade. The day was dark and gloomy and the rain was falling in torrents. Disgusted, he lowered the
shade and climbed back in bed.
The next morning the young man rose again and lifted the shade. It was still raining. Once more he
lowered it and crawled back into bed.
The third morning he staggered out of bed, tottered over to raise the shade – and went up with it.
All that I can say: that one cannot expect anything better from the Pope – he is a pure Polack! What
he has said is absolutely absurd – mental adultery with one’s own wife? But in a way this is one
of the oldest ideas in the Catholic Church. Sexual pleasure is suspect. In fact, ALL pleasure is
suspect. These so-called religious people are afraid of pleasure, they are against all pleasure. They
want your life to become so utterly depressed, gloomy, sad that you are bound to start looking for
some other life – life beyond death. Their whole effort is to destroy your life herenow so totally that
the only shelter for you is left is in the life after death. Then you become available to the priests to
be exploited.
I Am That 250 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
If you are happy, if you are enjoying life, if you are living each moment with pleasure, a dance in
the heart and a song on the lips, if your life is a sheer festivity, you will not bother much about the
churches and the temples. If your life is a ceremony, who cares about the life beyond? This very
moment, if you are living totally, all concern for the future disappears.
And these churches, these priests, all depend on your desire for a future life. their whole strategy
is to destroy your pleasure here so that you become interested in pleasure of heavenly life. And do
you see? – what they deny here they supply there.
Here they say that to love a woman is sin. And in heaven? – you will be provided with beautiful
women. In some religions even beautiful boys will be made available to you, so homosexuals need
not be worried! Here they condemn wine and there streams of wine are flowing, in paradise. Here
they insist for prohibition and there all that is denied and prohibited will be made available in a
thousandfold way.
Hindus say that all the pleasures are wrong, but in heaven you will be sitting under wish-fulfilling trees
– KALPAVRISHKAS – and whatsoever you wish will be immediately fulfilled, instantly, not even a
single moment’s distance between the desire and its fulfillment. Naturally they have to destroy all
possibilities here so you become focused on the future. And then they can exploit you, because they
have the keys of the future.
If you are a Catholic only then you can be saved; or if you are a Mohammedan only then you can be
saved; or if you are a Hindu only then you can be saved. The strategy is the same, the trick is the
same. All the priests have been using the same trade secret: destroy pleasure in people’s life, make
them as much miserable as possible – once they are miserable they are bound to fall unto your feet
and ask for your advice and guidance.
There is nothing wrong in pleasure. Even in physical pleasure there is nothing wrong; it is a God’s
gift. If God was against the body he would not give you the body in the first place; if he was against
sex he would not give you sexual energy, sexual desire and longing. If all these things are given
by nature to you, they are natural. Yes, one thing is certain: don’t remain clinging to the physical
pleasure only because there are higher possibilities. greater potential in you.
So I say physical pleasure is beautiful in its own place, but that is not the end of life. You can have
psychological pleasures; psychological pleasures are called happiness. Listening to beautiful music
– Beethoven or Mozart or Ravi Shankar – listening to great poetry – Kalidas, Balbhuti Shakespeare,
Milton – listening to the nature – the birds, the wind passing through the trees, the dance of the trees
in the sun, or looking at the beautiful paintings, great sculpture, architecture – these are pleasures
of the mind.
The physical pleasures are two: food and sex. Nothing is wrong in them, so don’t repress them,
because repression will bring indulgence. Accept them in a simple, innocent way, and then move
ahead. That is not the end, that is only the beginning of the journey.
And even the pleasures of the mind are not the end; then there are joys of the spirit. Meditation,
silence, prayer, these are the joys of meditation, joys of the soul. And still there is the ultimate,
the turiya, the fourth – even to go beyond the self. That’s what Buddha calls attaining the zero,
nothingness: just being, without any idea of ”I”. That is inexpressible; it is called bliss.
I Am That 251 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
These are the four planes: pleasure, happiness, joy. bliss. And the higher you go, richer you become.
But remember, the higher contains the lower. The ultimate, the fourth, is fourth only because it
contains all the three. It is not against the three: those three are its foundations, steppingstones
the ladder. The higher contains the lower; the lower does not contain the higher. Once this is
understood, then the lower is good as far as it goes, although it does not go far enough.
So go as far as it goes, but don’t stop there. There is still more to life. Explore! Move from the body
to the mind, from the mind to the self, and from the self to no-self, anatta, nothingness. Then only
you will know the ultimate unfoldment of your being. That is bliss, the one-thousand-petaled lotus
blossoming.
And lastly: what the Polack Pope has said is male chauvinistic. He talks about men lusting after
women but not the reverse. Women are not considered at all – they are not worth consideration.
Nobody bothers about them. He is talking about men, that man should not lust after women, but not
about women. What about women? Nothing has to be said. They are not counted as human beings;
they are commodities, far lower. They don’t have any future, they don’t belong to the spiritual world.
For centuries this male chauvinistic attitude has prevailed. In India the so-called saints go on saying
that the woman is the door of hell, but they don’t say the same thing about men. They go on
condemning the women, but they never say anything about the men. If the woman infatuates man,
then the man infatuates the woman.
But even your saints are not true sages – they are male chauvinistic pigs! Otherwise man and
woman are two aspects of the same humanity; they require the same respect. But the whole past
has been condemnatory about women. It only shows one thing, nothing else: that your saints were
deep down afraid of women, hence they were creating all kinds of barriers around themselves, that
”the woman is the door to hell.” They were trying to convince themselves that the woman consists
only of bones and blood and pus and mucus. And what they consist of? – gold, silver, diamonds?
It is very strange! Not a single saint says what he consists of – and he comes from the woman.
From the woman’s womb he comes, brings all the blood and the bone and the pus and the mucus
from the woman, and he condemns the woman. He is really afraid, afraid of his own sexuality; afraid
because he has been told that sex is sin. And of course to him the woman symbolizes sex.
Nobody bothers about the woman, what is her situation. In fact, women are very non-aggressive as
far as sexuality is concerned. NO woman can rape a man, only a man can rape a woman. Man’s
sexuality is aggressive, woman’s sexuality is receptive. Woman can live without sex far more easily
than man, hence nuns are far more true than the monks – the monks are hypocrites. But the poor
woman is condemned continuously.
I would like to change this whole ugly tradition. I he woman will be respected only when sex is also
respected, remember it. The woman will be accepted only when sex is also accepted as natural.
These popes, these shankaracharyas, these IMAMS, these so-called saints have created a very
ugly situation. It has to be completely destroyed and a new beginning has to be made in which man
and woman are no more separate, are no more thought separately, in which man and woman are
considered equally because they are two aspects of the same sex, two sides of the same coin.
I Am That 252 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
The third question:
Question 3
OSHO,
IS THIS WORLD INSANE?
Siddhartha,
IT SEEMS SO. At least up to now it has been insane. Man is not born insane but is driven towards
insanity by the priests, by the politicians, by the parents, by your whole educational system, by your
morality, by all that is enforced upon you, by all the conditionings. You are driven insane.
Man need not be insane, but it has not been possible yet to accept man in his naturalness. We
create a structure around him, we prune him, we go on and on giving a certain form and pattern to
him, we don’t allow him to be himself
And that’s my whole effort here: to accept humanity with deep respect, love, trust, so that man
can regain his sanity. And the problem is that man is driven insane by your so-called well-wishers.
The people who are trying to help you are the people who are poisoning you. Great mischief is
being done by public servants, missionaries, by the so-called saints. They are the most mischievous
people in the world – not intentionally, not consciously, but that’s the ultimate result of whatsoever
they have been doing. they have been driven insane by other saints and they are driving you insane.
And if you don’t follow them you feel guilty; if you follow them you become hypocrites. They don’t
leave you any other alternative, only two alternatives: either be insane like them or feel guilty. And
both the alternatives are ill, sickening.
Siddhartha, watch life all around you and you will find in every possible way that man is insane.
When the seven-year-old started for school. his mother suggested softly, ”Son, put a smile on your
face and have a happy time!”
But when the lad returned home his face was a big frown.
”What happened?” his mother asked. ”I thought you were going to smile and have a happy time at
school.”
”It didn’t work, Mom,” he said. ”I tried to keep smiling, but the teacher thought I was up to something
and was always giving me dirty looks!”
Nobody wants you to be happy. If you are happy, everybody will become suspicious of you: ”YOU
are up to something. Why you are looking so happy?” If you are sad you are accepted – you are
part of the crowd. Everybody is sad and you are also sad; it fits. But if you are dancing and rejoicing
then you are crazy, mad. Then you have to be put into a hospital, you have to be treated, given
electric shocks or something, because how you can be happy? How you can be so blissful? When
the whole humanity is suffering, you have to suffer.
I Am That 253 Osho
CHAPTER 16. IT IS ALREADY THE BEST
And the crowd has always been against the people who were blissful. They crucified Jesus, they
poisoned Socrates, they murdered Mansoor; and their only sin was that they were trying to be
blissful, that they were not part of the mob, the sad, sick society. They were trying to be individuals.
The marriage counselor was asking a woman some questions about her disposition. ”Did you wake
up grumpy this morning?”
”No,” she answered. ”I let him sleep.”
A woman driver passed a red light and collided with another car. Jumping out of her car, she
snapped at the other driver, ”Why don’t you watch where you’re going? You are the third car I hit this
morning!”
When a customer was told he could no longer buy his favorite patent medicine, he angrily berated
the druggist.
”But I tell you, it has now been banned,” the druggist insisted. ”Now you need a doctor’s prescription
because it is habit-forming.”
”It is not habit-forming!” the customer cried. ”I know it’s not because I’ve been taking it every day for
twenty years!”
A client was complaining to a marriage counselor that his wife’s immaturity was causing his marriage
to go on the rocks. ”She is so immature,” he charged, ”that every time I take a bath she comes in
and sinks my boats!”
The elderly millionaire emerged from his exclusive club feeling despondent and hopeless, and slowly
climbed into his limousine.
”Where to, sir?” asked his chauffeur.
”Drive off a cliff, James,” was the reply. ”I am committing suicide!”
A leading sexologist interviewed on television was asked, ”What do you think of the view that
impotence is on the rise?”
”I think the question is self-contradictory!” he replied.
It is an insane world!
In old age Diogenes stopped a veteran and asked, ”What were you in the last war?”
”Oh, I was only a private,” replied the veteran.
Diogenes rocked as if about to fall. ”Ye gods!” he gasped. ”At last!” Then after catching his breath
he blew out his lantern and went home.
You think over it – it is a little difficult.

The Law of Diminishing Value
Sensual pleasures have a diminishing value. With continuous contact with the sense objects, the joy reduces. You contact an object of pleasure and you enjoy it. When you contact the same object the second time, you do not get the same joy. After several contacts with the object, the joy gradually reduces. You do not get the same joy as you enjoyed in the first contact. The more you contact the pleasure, the more the joy diminishes and gradually it becomes zero. You get fed up of that particular pleasure. This is the law of diminishing value.
Diminishing value leads to the state of neutralization where you do not get extra joy when the object is present, but you become miserable when the object is absent. Thereafter, you crave to continue the contact, but you receive no pleasure. This state of mind is called addiction. Thereafter, you pay the price for nothing. Here the author wants to impress upon us that through indulgence, we deteriorate our equipments and we, thereafter, become inefficient and incompetent. Therefore, you got to deal with your desires.

The police in Sydney have arrested a 19-year-old man for the murder.They have,however,ruled out the possibility of the crime being racially motivated.
Describing the incident as unfortunate,external affairs minister S M Krishna on Monday said India was closely monitoring investigations into the case.This is a very,very unfortunate incident, he said.

The word ”respect” is beautiful; it means seeing again and again – ”re-spect”. When you pass a
beautiful woman, if she is really beautiful you will have to look again and again. That is respect:
seeing again and again. You will walk slowly you will find excuses to go back, you will enter into the
same shop the woman has entered, you will start asking for the same commodities she is purchasing
so that you can be on the same counter. You will not be looking at things, you will be looking at her.
This is respect – literal meaning of the word!
A Gurl Never Express Her
Liking For A Boy ..
Thinking Boy Should Express First .
And A Boy Never Express His
Feelings ..
…With A Fear Of Losing Her As A
Friend ..
…”Thats Why Love Stories End Before
They Even Start ”
We are what we think. All that we are arises from our thoughts. With our thoughts we make the world. Speak or act with an impure, spiteful, jealous mind and trouble will follow you, like the wheel follows the ox that draws a bullock cart.
We… are what we think. All that we become arises from our thoughts. With our thoughts we make the world. Speak or act with a pure, righteous mind and happiness will follow you, as your shadow that never forsakes you.
In this world, hate never yet dispels hate. Hate can be dispelled or conquered only through love. This is the Law, ancient and eternal. We are, we become what we think.
– Lord Buddha
There are many who claim to be yogis, but he alone is a yogi who overcomes the mind.” – HAZUR BABA SAWAN SINGH JI (1858-1948)

OSHO,
IT IS SAID THAT ZARATHUSTRA HAD LOUDLY LAUGHED WHEN HE WAS BORN. IS IT TRUE?
Narendra,
IT MUST BE TRUE, because a man like Zarathustra comes in the world with great insight. He must
have seen the world immediately – he must have seen the whole crazy scene! It depends how much
intelligence you have got. Few people take their whole life to realize that they have been living in a
madhouse. He must have seen at the first moment that ”This is a crazy place I am entering into!”
And it is not only Zarathustra – every child, the moment the child becomes capable of focusing
properly, he starts smiling, because he is then able to see what his father looks like!
A recent story tells about a baby who was giggling and laughing minutes after he was born. The
obstetrician noticed he had unusual muscle control, his tiny left fist being tightly clenched. When the
doctor pried it open he found a contraceptive pill.
Zarathustra must have laughed! Whether he laughed or not… I am not concerned about history,
but to me his laughter is very significant. The world is in such a mess! Ordinarily children are born
crying – that too is their judgment! They are saying, ”My God! So this is the world I am born into?”
Zarathustra has a different attitude, from the other extreme – he laughed. He must have been a man
like me, hence I have very deep love for Zarathustra.
A rabbi and a Hindu monk, who was obviously a teetotaler, happened to be seated together in the
dining car of a train. When the rabbi ordered a martini, the Hindu monk was shocked.
”I would rather commit adultery!” he scoffed.
”I didn’t know they gave you a choice here,” replied the rabbi.
The army recruit from the country was being given his physical examination. ”Well, that’s everything
but the urine test,” said the doctor. ”I want a specimen of yours in one of those little bottles on that
shelf down at the other end of the room.”
”What did you say, Doc?” asked the young man.
”Just urinate in one of those little bottles down there,” repeated the doctor.
The recruit still looked doubtful. ”Do you mean all the way from here?” he asked.
A rambling man thought up a new scheme for winning sympathy. He rang the doorbell, then got
down on his knees and started nibbling on the grass. ”What are you doing there?” asked the lady
when she opened the door.
The tramp rose weakly to his feet, clutched his stomach in mock pain and moaned, ”Ma’am, I am so
hungry I just had to take to eating grass.”
”Why, you poor man, stop eating that dry old grass!” cried the woman sympathetically. ”Go around
in the back where the grass is greener and longer!”
A man won a turkey in a raffle and brought it home, but his wife was annoyed. ”Who wants the
bother of plucking it?” she said in a huff.
”If that’s the way you feel,” he replied, ”I will pluck it and cook it myself.”
So he busied himself plucking it and when he was finally through he trussed it and put it in the oven.
But he forgot to light the gas. After washing up he settled down to read. Half an hour later he heard
a muffled voice say, ”What are you going to do about it?”
Without taking his eyes off the newspaper he said, ”Do about what?”
The voice answered, ”I am getting cold. Either put my feathers back or light the gas!”
If Zarathustra laughed, what is wrong in it? He must have seen the whole stupidity, that he has to
live with these people, and he started with a laughter.
The noted agnostic lecturer, Robert G. Ingersoll, said once: ”No man with a sense of humor ever
founded a religion.”
He is wrong – Zarathustra did. Of course, about ninety-nine percent religions Ingersoll is right; his
statement is significant. He says, ”No man with a sense of humor ever founded a religion.” It is true
about Jesus, about Buddha, about Mohammed, about Krishna – it is absolutely true; these people
don’t seem to have any sense of humor – except about Zarathustra. Maybe Ingersoll had never
heard about Zarathustra.
He is the only man known who started his life with laughter – must have had an immense sense of
humor. To begin your life with laughter is not an easy matter. He must have prepared for it for many
lives; he must have come ready.
Christians say Jesus never laughed in his whole life; maybe they are right. I don’t want to believe it
because that means a great condemnation of Jesus, but if Christians say, then, of course, who I am
to disagree with them? They are the authoritative people, at least about Jesus – they own Jesus!
Protestant Church in Germany has banned my books in the churches, in the churches’ libraries.
It has been given to all the priests, to all the churches, that my name, even my name, should not
be mentioned in any sermon. Nothing should be quoted from my books, even to refute it, because
people become interested!
This may be one of the reasons why Jesus has succeeded to change almost half the humanity to
Christianity, because people are sad. Zarathustra has not found many followers, you know? His
followers are only confined in Bombay – just only few thousand. Why Zarathustra has failed? Maybe
that laughter is the cause: he has the sense of humor.
People are serious, sad, miserable, hence the cross of Jesus seems to be very appealing, because
their life is also on the cross. They can understand Jesus and his agony – they are passing through
it. Their whole life is nothing but carrying a cross. They can find a deep affinity with Jesus, his
crucifixion – they are also crucified. But what affinity they can find with Zarathustra? Why Zarathustra
failed?
Buddhists have found millions of followers; the whole Asia is Buddhist. Christians have found millions
of followers; half the earth is Christian. Mohammedans are next to Christians – and Mohammed
has no sense of humor at all. With a sword in his hand he is very serious, really serious. He is
much concerned about your welfare – if you don’t listen him he is ready to fight with you, but he is
determined to convince you because he is determined to save your soul. Even if he has to use the
sword he has to save you. How can he allow you to fall into hell? It is for your own sake.
Zarathustra is the only person who has not been able to find followers. I can see the point: with a
sense of humor, who is going to listen to you?
I am trying again something like Zarathustra. My effort here is to prove Ingersoll wrong. I am trying
to found a religion based totally on the sense of humor!
Shakespeare and others have punningly described the foolish pretender to philosophy as
foolosopher. By the same wordplay the philosophy of foolosophers is called foolosophy.
Bertrand Russell was always critical of foolosophers, for their lack of both common sense and a
sense of humor. He tells how he was once near death with pneumonia delirious for three weeks.
After he revived, the doctor said to him, ”When you were ill you behaved like a true philosopher:
every time you came to yourself you made a joke.”
Russell wrote afterward, ”I never had a compliment that pleased me more.”
He himself was a serious man. In his delirious state he must have forgotten all his philosophy and
seriousness, must have become more relaxed, must have forgotten that he is a philosopher and he
has to be serious – must have joked.
To me sense of humor should be the foundation stone of the future religiousness of man. There is
no need to be so serious. Man is the only animal who has the sense of humor. You have never
seen buffaloes laughing, or the donkeys. Only the man can have the feel of the ridiculous, of the
absurd. It needs great intelligence to have sense of humor; on the lower planes it does not exist.
and even all human beings don’t have it; those who exist on lower planes of intelligence are bound
to be serious – serious like the donkeys. Donkeys are very serious people, always thinking about
serious things, it seems, much disturbed with all the problems of the world.
I have watched donkeys very closely; from my very childhood I have been very much interested in
donkeys. If Pavlov could find many things about man by studying dogs, if Skinner can find many
things about man by studying white rats, if Delgado can find many things about man by studying
monkeys, I feel why these people have missed the donkey? He comes closest to human beings – a
serious philosopher, a pundit, a scholar, a theologian! Who has ever heard a donkey laughing?
Zarathustra seems to be of the highest caliber, of the most refined intelligence At the first sight of
the world he laughed He could not contain himself, he could not resist the temptation Seeing where
he has landed.
The old professor of philosophy who was retiring addressed his class: ”Men, I have two confessions
to make before I go,” he said ”The first is that half of what I have taught you is not true The second
is that I have no idea which half it is!”
A pious old gentleman heard a tough kid on the street swearing at his playmate ”Don’t you know,”
he admonished the youngster, ”it is wrong to use such four-letter words? God will punish you.”
The youngster looked at the man with scorn. ”God can’t hear me,” he said. ”He’s way up in heaven.”
”Young man, God is everywhere.”
”Is he over in my house?”
”He certainly is.”
”Is he in my yard?”
”Of course.”
”You’re crazy – we haven’t got a yard!”
Children are far more clear: you cannot befool them so easily. And at the first moment when the
child opens his eyes his clarity is absolute. No priest has come in, no politician has corrupted him
yet. He has not been conditioned by Catholics and Protestants and Hindus and Mohammedans.
He has not been told all kinds of lies and beliefs and superstitions. His eyes are clear, he can see
through and through.
Zarathustra did the right thing – that he laughed.
Once Diogenes asked alms from a man with a philosophic bent of mind. ”Before I give you a
DRACHMA,” said the man, ”convince me why I should do so.”
”If I thought you were amenable to reason,” Diogenes told him, ”I would recommend that you go and
hang yourself.”
Who is amenable to reason? It is an irrational world, and Diogenes is right. the man was asking,
”Convince me – why should I give you anything? Why? Diogenes answer is right that: ”If I thought
that you can understand reason, then the only thing I would suggest for you will be go and hang
yourself, because what you are doing in this irrational world? Such a reasonable man!”
The laughter of Zarathustra looks irrational, but it is not irrational. Seeing the irrationality all around
he must have been perceptive, very perceptive.
The story is strange. There are many miracles talked about people like Jesus, Buddha, Mahavira,
Krishna, but they are almost the same. The miracle of walking on water is repeated in thousands of
stones; it is nothing special to Jesus. The miracle of curing the people from their incurable diseases
is nothing new to Jesus. It is the same miracle being done by so many people around the world,
in every tradition, in every religion. Even the miracle of raising the dead is not new; that too is a
common miracle attributed to many people.
But this miracle of Zarathustra is simply unique; no other person has been attributed with this miracle.
Nobody has ever thought about it. And it is far more significant than raising the dead, because raising
the dead is not going to help. Lazarus has to die finally, has to die sooner or later, so what does it
matter – this week or the next week? He may have lived few years more – so what? Curing a man
from his illness does not matter much, because still death will come, other diseases will come. Even
if he starts seeing – he was blind before – what does it matter? So many millions of people have
eyes – what has happened to them?
In fact, there is a Sufi story about Jesus, not related by the Christians in their scriptures They must
have all avoided it The Bible is not exactly true; much has been edited out of it Anything that was
going to create a trouble for the theologians, for the priests, for the popes, has been edited out, left
out But there are always few people who will not miss such an opportunity; they will collect all those
rejected parts – because they are far more important than the accepted ones.
This story is a rejected story by the Christians, but the Sufis have preserved it, and they have done
a great service to humanity.
Jesus enters a town and he comes across a man who is lying in the gutter shouting ugly words,
completely drunk. Jesus comes close to him to help him, looks at his face and recognizes that this
man is well-known to him. He was very ill, Jesus saved him, dragged him almost from the door of
death.
He shook the drunk and asked him, ”Do you recognize me?”
He said, ”Yes, I recognize you perfectly well. You are the man who created the trouble! I was going
to die – why you saved me? And now why you have come again? Are you gong to do something
more?”
Jesus could not believe the way the man was behaving, as if Jesus has done something wrong to
him. Jesus said, ”Why you are so angry?”
The man says, ”I am angry because I was going to die and the whole thing was going to be finished,
and you saved me! Now I don’t know what to do with my life. You see, I am lying down in the gutter
– you are responsible! Now I am simply trying to forget myself and my problems and my anxieties
by drinking as much as I can. And I know it is poison, but what else to do? Why you saved me? I
have been looking for you – it is good that you have come by yourself Answer me!”
And Jesus could not answer him. The man is asking a relevant question: ”Why you saved me? For
what? For this gutter? For drinking and trying to forget my miseries?”
Jesus moved, very humiliated, shocked.
He saw another man who was running after a prostitute He prevented the man – he forgot the first
man – just old habits! He prevented the second man and said, ”What are you doing? Has God given
you the eyes just to lust after women? Even to THINK of lust is sin – you will suffer in hell!”
And the man said, ”Stop all this nonsense! It is YOU who cured me of my blindness! I was perfectly
happy with my blindness because I had never seen a woman, so I was never disturbed I never cared
who is passing, man or woman, it was all the same It is you who cured me Now what should I do
with these eyes? These eyes feel attracted towards beauty And remember, at the last moment on
the day of judgment, I will point you – that you are responsible I was an innocent blind man. You
gave me eyes, and I had not asked even! I was just sitting, you came and touched my eyes and you
cured me! You did not even ask me!”
Jesus was now really shocked. He didn’t go into the town. he left the town. When he was coming
out he saw a man preparing to hang himself by a tree. Again he forgot – old habits die hard! He
reached to the man and said, ”What are you doing?”
And this man was nobody else but Lazarus! He said, ”So you have come again! Get lost! I am
committing suicide – enough is enough! And how you came to know? Last time my sisters invited
you, Martha and Mary, they invited you. And I was dead – at last I was dead, resting at peace, and
you came and resurrected me A.nd now again you are back! You won’t allow me any peace? How
long I have to live, and why should I live? What is the point of it all?”
All these miracles are meaningless, but Zarathustra’s miracle of laughing at the moment of his birth
is really significant.
A great Zen Master lay critically ill. As his doctor prepared to leave he said cheerfully, ”I will see you
in the morning.”
Although the dying Master knew his hours were numbered, he could not resist quipping, ”Of course.
But will I see you?”
I Am That 177 Osho
Each consciousness moving towards God, towards the ultimate ocean, is religious. Religion is
neither Christian nor Hindu nor Mohammedan. These are all political games played in the name of
religion. A religious person is simply religious, natural, spontaneous, living out of his own light.
Buddha said to his disciples, and this was his last message on the earth: ”Be a light unto yourself” –
live according to your own light, not following and practicing somebody else’s light, because that will
make you only a carbon copy, and howsoever beautiful the carbon copy is it is still a carbon copy.
Discover your originality, and it cannot be done by practicing. Practicing means imposing some
ideas from others, trying to act as others would like you to act. Act as you would like to act. Take the
risk – it is dangerous.
To be religious is to live in danger – it is not security. To live in religion means constantly exploring
the unknown and ultimately the unknowable.
And thirdly: be a seeker, never be a believer. If you cannot say, ”I know God,” please don’t say, ”I
believe in God,” because that is falsifying. That is even not being true about God, not even being
sincere with God. With whom you are going to be sincere then? If you don’t know, say, ”I don’t
know.” At least that is true. Don’t pretend that you know because pretensions are dangerous. They
will deceive others and they can deceive yourself too.
And only a seeker can become a meditator. Meditation means absolute silence. It is only in silence
that one comes to know, one comes to love, one comes to dance in tune with existence.

Roughly it can be translated:
Don’t ask me, sir, what I am doing here.
You are proud of the dreamlike psychedelic colors
of the body and the mind,
but I can see death knocking at your doors.
You are lost in a dreamworld, and I can see
death approaching every moment closer and closer.

And this is certainly a city of the blind! This whole earth is full of blind people – blind because they
cannot see death approaching, blind because they cannot see that life is evaporating every moment,
blind because they cannot see the momentariness of all that they are accumulating, blind because
they don’t know from where they come, why they come, to where they are destined, blind because
they are not even aware who resides at the innermost core of their being.
AAINE BECHTA HUN MAIN ANDHON KE SHAHAR MAIN.
I am selling mirrors in the city of the blind.
And it is really a city of blind people, mad people, dead people; all kinds of strange people have
gathered on the earth. It seems the earth must be a dumping place of the universe because
scientists say at least there are fifty thousand planets on which life exists, so they must need some
place to dump. They must be using earth as a dumping place – because it is so full of mad people,
so full of dead people, so full of mediocres, stupids…
A couple of jazz musicians, real gone, were watching a crater erupt.
”Man,” cried one, ”dig that crazy cigarette lighter!”
A young woman who had been completely broke for many weeks found a ten-dollar bill in the gutter.
Overjoyed, she rushed into the nearest supermarket and spent it all on groceries. As she was
walking out with her parcel she collided with a drunk and landed on the pavement amidst a mess of
milk, coffee powder, broken eggs and tomato sauce.
Seeing her dream of a feast shattered, she burst into tears and began sobbing bitterly. The drunk
staggered to his feet and gazed in fascinated silence at two eggs floating in a pool of tomato sauce.
Then he looked at the woman and spluttered, ”Don’t worry, lady, it would not have lived anyway – its
eyes were too far apart!”
A drunk was staggering down the road in the middle of the day, obviously much the worse for wear,
and almost collided with a Catholic priest who was on his way to visit an elderly parishioner.
”’Scuse me, Rev’rend,” slurred the drunk, ”but can you direct me to Alcoholics Anonymous?”
The priest’s contemptuous expression brightened visibly and he shook the drunk warmly by the
hand. ”My son,” he intoned, ”I am pleased to see that even in your intoxicated state you can see the
error of your ways, and have had the good sense to go and join Alcoholics Anonymous.”
”Join? The hell!” said the drunk. ”I am going to resign!”
A young boy was chasing crows away from some young plants in a field, shouting, ”Fuck off! Fuck
off!”
A priest was walking by, called the boy over and remonstrated with him for the use of bad language.
”Remember,” he pontificated, ”God is everywhere and hears every word you utter. Do not offend his
ears with such language! Besides, if you shout, ’Shoo, shoo!’ loudly enough, they will fuck off just
as quickly!”
In the East we call this state meditation: no belief, no thought, no desire, no prejudice, no
conditioning – in fact, no mind at all. A state of no-mind is meditation. When you can look without
any mind interfering, distorting, interpreting, then you see the truth. The truth is already all around;
just you have to put your mind aside.
The seeker has to fulfill only one basic thing: he has to drop his mind. The moment the mind is
dropped, a great silence arises – because the mind carries your whole past; all the memories of the
past go on hankering for your attention, they go on crowding upon you, they don’t leave any space
within you.
And the mind also means future. Out of the past you start fantasizing about the future. It is a
projection out of the past. You have lived a certain life in the past: there have been a few moments
of joy and many many dark nights. You would not like to have those dark nights; you would have
your future to be full of those joyous moments. So you sort out from your past: you choose few
things and you project them in the future, and you choose a few other things and you try to avoid
them in the future. Your future is only nothing but a refined past – a little bit modified here and there,
but it is still the past because that’s all that you know.
And one thing very significant to be remembered: those few moments of joy that you had in the past
were basically part of those long dark nights, so if you choose those moments those dark nights will
come automatically; you cannot avoid them. The silver linings in the dark clouds cannot be chosen
separately from the dark clouds. In the dark night you see the sky full of stars; in the day those stars
disappear. Do you think they evaporate? They are still there, but the context is missing. They need
darkness; only then you can see them. In the night, you will be able to see them again. Darker the
night, the more shining are the stars.
In life everything is intertwined with each other. Your pleasures are intertwined with your pains, your
ecstasies mixed inevitably, inseparably with your agonies. So your whole idea of the future is sheer
nonsense. You cannot manage it, nobody has ever been able to manage it, because you are trying
to do something which cannot be done in the very nature of things. It will be simply a repetition of
your past.
Whatsoever you desire is not going to make any difference. It will be again and again a repetition of
your past, the same past, maybe a little bit different, but not because of your expectations – a little
bit different because life goes on changing, people go on changing, existence goes on changing. So
there will be few differences but not basic differences, only in the non-essential parts. Essentially it
will be the same tragedy.
Dropping the mind means dropping the past, and with it of course the future disappears. Dropping
the mind means you are suddenly awakened into the present, and the present is the only reality
there is. Past is non-existential, so is future. Past is no more, future is not yet, only the present is. It
is always now – only the now exists. And the meditator starts merging and melting with the now.
Wherever, whenever you will find truth, you will find it paradoxical – because the truth has to be total; totality is paradoxical.
A doctrine is never paradoxical, a doctrine is tremendously consistent – because a doctrine is not worried about reality. A doctrine is worried about being consistent. It knows no reality. It is a mind game, and the mind is very very logical. And the mind says don’t allow any contradiction in it. The mind says if you talk about light then don’t talk about darkness because that will be inconsistent. Forget about darkness. The mind tries to prove that life is non- contradictory, because that is the mind’s choice.
Mind is very afraid of contradictions, becomes very shaky when it comes across a contradiction. It insists on its own pattern. Mind is logical, life is not. So if you find something very logical, beware – something must be wrong in it. It must not be part of life, it must be man-made.
Everything god-made is contradictory. That’s why people go on arguing about god. Why, if he loves man so much, then why did he create death? The mind finds it very difficult to accept the idea that God created life and also death. If it was up to you, if you were the maker of the world, if mind was the creator, then you would have never done that.
But think of a life where no death exists. It will be sheer boredom. It will be tedium. Think – if death is impossible, then you will be continuously in hell. If mind had created the world, then there would be only love, no hate. But think of a world where only love exists. Then it will be too sweet – sweet to the point of being nauseous. It will lose all taste, it will lose all colour, it will be flat. Love is beautiful because of the possibility of hate.
If mind was to create the world, or Aristotle was asked to create the world, then there would have been only day, no night; only work, no play. Then think what would have happened. God in his compassion never took any advice from Aristotle. And maybe that’s the reason he created man in the very end. First he created other things – otherwise man would start giving advice.
That has been a problem – why did he create man in the end? First he created trees and the earth and the sky and the stars and the animals and the birds and the whole – then he waited and waited. Then he created man. And first he created man, then he created woman. Because man, just out of politeness, may have kept quiet, but a woman cannot keep quiet. He must have been afraid.
Don’t create man otherwise he will start giving advice – do this, don’t do that.
And for woman he waited last. And since he created woman he has disappeared – otherwise the woman would have nagged him to death.

God has given me too much freedom to love anyone , that i cant help but love god : )
my relationship with god is complicated but very good as he is invisible but he is always in and around me : )
i am in gay relation with god ….ha ha ha ha : )
i am in love with god , and god comes in various forms of girls to play with me : )
Had idly-wada frm an dily wala , who had no place to sit , but he had great customer following , all well do to people were standing on footpath and having idlys : )just for rs 10 u can get 2 idlys and two badas , and very tasty chutney,early morning he has sold off the idlys , these are freshly prepared . Now he will be going to some other place , as he is not allowed to sit there for more than half hour. Otherwise , he said all his idlys etc will be sold off in 2 hours : ) I saw that he even gave free idlys etc to many , as one man was giving him 10rupee note , but he refused as he said , it was his pleasure to feed the children. and someone told me he also gives free idlys to poors : )
when u feel horny , u loose all ur so called morality and given a chance u can fuck even ur sister, and if u hac no option , u may imagine having sex with anyone u wanna fuck and then u masturbate fantasizing that , but the irony is as soon as u orgasm, u loose all horniness and ur so called morality comes back and tells u , i have been cheated by my hormones and led into sex. after orgasm the condition is same for both, girls and boys who one who masturbated and one who did sex with someone. Actually sex with someone is also a kind of mutual masturbation. So i feel its only in their horniness people get married, but later they regret their decision , after orgasm , just like one who masturbates imagining ses with someone. So i feel that its better to masturbate or have paid sex , or consensual sex , than to be bound in any stupid relation (loosing ur freedom forever) just for ur horniness. And best is to transend sex through awareness and meditation : )
Sometimes u feel so horny , that u feel the urge to be an exhibitionist ;-D.i feel it must be happening to both boys and girs , thats why they behave in such a way.

If you are still SINGLE…it is because…GOD isn’t ready to share you yet !!
I have heard one case:
In the First World War two brothers separated. The father divided all his property, because he was
getting old and he was worried about the younger son – because he was a drunkard and he will
destroy the whole thing, and even the eldest son will suffer because of the younger. So he divided
them equally.
And a miracle happened. In the First World War the value of money went so low, as it always goes
in wartime: things become very costly and money loses its purchasing capacity. The drunkard had
one habit of collecting bottles. He finished with the whole money, he drank and he enjoyed. And the
other son was so miserly that he was clinging to the money that he has got, but money was going
down every day.
And the miracle was this: that a moment came when the money became almost useless, almost
valueless, and the younger son sold all his bottles and he had more money than the elder brother.
He enjoyed the wine and he sold the bottles! And the elder was a fool – he was just clinging to the
money.
Life is very mysterious, and the ways of God are very strange. And God is always for the drunkards!
He loves these crazy people.

Yaar jo bhi mila!!
Yaar jo bhi mila dil jala kar gaya,
Khaak main meri hasthi mila kar gaya.
…Pyaas jiski sada main bhujatha raha,
Zaher-e-katil mujhe wo pila kar gaya.
Naaz uski wafa par mujhe tha magar,
Teer woh bhi jigar par chala kar gaya.
Doondta tha kabhi jo mujhe her gali,
Aankh wo aaj mujhse bacha kar gaya.
Mangta tha sahara jo hardam mujhe,
Besahara mujhe wo bana kar gaya.
Neend aagosh main jiski aane lagi,
Maut ki neend mujh ko sula kar gaya.
Aarzoo thi ae Yaaro jiski mujhe,
Kwaab mere wahi to mita kar gaya
