Don’t stop when you are tired. Stop when you are done.

The quote is one that is commonly used to promote persistence and endurance despite challenges.

First, recognise the beauty in the effort, the meditation in the action. To keep going when you are tired, you must tap into a source of energy that is beyond the physical. This is where the m…[Read more]

Meditation prepares you for the other half; you know death without dying.

Meditation is indeed a profound preparation, but not in the conventional sense of the word. It is a preparation that transcends the very concept of time and duality. When one meditates, one gradually peels away the layers of noise that constitute our conditioned…[Read more]

Nothing is stable in this life, neither love nor friendship. Constant change is the very nature of this world.

The impermanence of life – a truth as profound as existence itself. This quote speaks directly to the core of what Osho has always pointed toward – that life is a flux, a continuous river of change that cannot be held at bay.

Meditation is a non-goal-oriented state of mind.

The art of meditation is the art of witnessing, of watching without any goal or desire. To understand this, you must see the distinction between the mind and the state of meditation itself. The mind is always seeking, always wanting, always moving from one objective to another. It is the nature…[Read more]

Witness the objects, the contents, of the mind. Whatsoever passes before you, watch it, without evaluating, judging or condemning.

The essence of witnessing is the foundation of meditation. To witness the objects of the mind, you have to become a detached observer of your own mental landscape. It is like sitting by the side of a river, watching…[Read more]

Understand this – that which you truly are is not confined to the body or the…[Read more]

The people who love to say Yes, who understand the meaning of rebellion, will not be alone.

In this expression, we delve into the realm of affirmative living and the spirit of rebellion which is not one of isolation but one of profound connectivity with life and those around us.

The people who love to say ‘Yes’ are those who embrace life in…[Read more]

The best fighter is never angry.

To understand this quote deeply, you must look beyond the surface of conflict and aggression to the essence of true strength and strategy. The best fighter is not one who is easily provoked or who reacts out of a sense of anger or frustration. Such emotional responses cloud judgement and weaken one’s position b…[Read more]

Hell is when you are tense, and heaven is when you are relaxed.

Life is a series of moments, a flow of experiences that are often coloured by our internal states. Tension and relaxation are not merely physical states; they are dimensions of your consciousness, reflections of your inner world.

When Osho says, “Hell is when you are tense’, he…[Read more]

Our breath is our own guru.

Breath is a phenomenon so vital and yet so often overlooked in its simplicity. The breath is the bridge between the conscious and the unconscious, between the mind and the body, between life and death. It is both involuntary and voluntary, something that continues whether we are aware of it or not, something we can…[Read more]

Celebration is my religion, love is my message, silence is my truth.

In the cosmic play of existence, one must first understand that everything is an act of celebration. The earth revolving around the sun, the trees dancing in the wind, and the rivers flowing towards the ocean – everything is in a state of joyous dance. To live life as a…[Read more]

There is no other time than now. All other times are just mind-fabrications, fantasies.

Eternity is now. When Osho says there is no other time than now, it is a simple existential truth. The past is a memory, a recollection, a series of images and stories you tell yourself. The future is a projection, a dream, a castle in the air. All that…[Read more]

Meditation does not give the answer but it destroys the question.

Meditation is a journey into the very being of consciousness, where questions and answers lose their significance. When Osho says, “Meditation does not give the answer but it destroys the question,” he is pointing toward a state of no-mind, a state of pure awareness.

In our…[Read more]

Buddha says.. Surrender to yourself, don’t look for anyone.

The statement by Buddha to surrender to yourself and not to look for anyone else is a profound one. It is a call to delve deeply into your own being, to understand the essence of who you are. This is not an act of ego, but rather an act of discovering your true nature beyond the e…[Read more]

One step at a time, You’ll get there.

Life, in its infinite complexity, mirrors the gentle unfolding of a lotus blossom – each petal revealing itself in due course. Consider a child taking its first steps, or the sun’s slow ascension at dawn, both evidence of nature’s subtle yet insistent progression.

The quote, “One step at a time, You’ll…[Read more]

A man becomes a Buddha the moment he accepts all that life brings with gratitude.

Life is a series of events strung together, not just by incident, but by the thread of consciousness. To accept all that life brings with gratitude is to embrace the very essence of existence. You see, it’s in acceptance that life unfolds its true beauty, not in r…[Read more]

This very moment, if you are living totally, all concern for the future disappears.

The beauty of the present! The quote is a key to unlocking the boundless energy of existence. The idea is not mere rhetoric, it is an experiential truth.

To live totally in this moment is to be utterly present with what is happening now – not lost in the…[Read more]

Be more and more in a state of no-mind. Just go on removing memories, imagination, to clean and clear the present moment.

The state of no-mind is what happens when we transcend the ordinary workings of the conscious mind – our thoughts, memories, and imaginations. These are the things that keep us tethered to our past and constantly worrying…[Read more]

Don’t be afraid of experience, because the more experience you have, the more mature you become.

Life is a great tapestry of experiences, each thread woven with the colours of our encounters, our trials, our joys, and our sorrows. When Osho speaks of not being afraid of experience, he is telling you to embrace life in all its dimensions. Fear o…[Read more]
