< Previous | Contents | Next > ‌CHAPTER 28 28 August 1977 pm in Chuang Tzu Auditorium Anand means bliss and haramita is a japanese form of a sanskrit word, ‘paramita’. ‘Paramita’ means going to the other shore. The unknown is the other shore, god is the other shore. The visible is this shore; the invisible is the other shore. So the whole search is for the other shore. This shore is not satisfying – it only creates more and more desires and more and more frustrations; it is utterly futile....

I will be calling all of my people to stay with me now, so prepare... Because now it will be needed. The work has to take on a totally new dimension and I will be working now on deeper planes....

< Previous | Contents | Next > ‌CHAPTER 3 3 August 1977 pm in Chuang Tzu Auditorium [A sannyasin, leaving for the west, says: The whole thing about leaving does not come from within; it comes from without – conditions and situations... But to stay comes from within.] I know... That too is true. And as far as the within is concerned, you are staying; only the without is going. No need to worry about it....

< Previous | Contents | Next > ‌CHAPTER 30 30 August 1977 pm in Chuang Tzu Auditorium Deva means divine, pargal means mad – divinely mad. And just by remaining ordinarily sane god cannot be attained. For the ordinary sanity nothing of the eternal is possible because the eternal needs total commitment, utter involvement. Of that only a madman is capable. By madness I mean when you put aside your mind and you don’t listen to the mind at all; you listen to the heart....

< Previous | Contents ‌CHAPTER 31 31 August 1977 pm in Chuang Tzu Auditorium [Osho gives sannyas to an Indian prince.] Mayoor is so good and so meaningful. Mayoor is the symbol of dance and celebration and joy... and if life becomes joyful, then nothing else is needed. It is through joy that god comes; it is through joy that the first contact happens. So create this dancing energy around you....

In fact just the contrary is the case: when thinking disappears there is wisdom. It is not the ultimate in thinking but the absencewhen the...

< Previous | Contents | Next > ‌CHAPTER 5 5 August 1977 pm in Chuang Tzu Auditorium Deva Viyog. It means separation from god. That’s where we are... that’s why there is so much anguish; and once we consciously understand it union becomes possible. Right now we are separate, we are like islands – have lost contact with the continent. We have forgotten that we are rooted in god: god seems to be just a fantasy, not a reality....

< Previous | Contents | Next > ‌CHAPTER 6 6 August 1977 pm in Chuang Tzu Auditorium [Osho gives someone sannyas.] Raise your hands and close your eyes, and just feel as if you are being born from the mother’s womb, right now this moment, and whatsoever body posture comes, allow it. If you start crying, weeping, it’s okay. Just think of birth. If your body falls and starts rolling or anything, just allow it....

< Previous | Contents | Next > ‌CHAPTER 7 7 August 1977 pm in Chuang Tzu Auditorium [Osho gives sannyas.] Close your eyes, and just feel as if you are dying; just relax the body. If the body falls, don’t be worried: allow it, cooperate. Go on feeling as if you are dying, dying, dying. At the very moment when you are almost dying it is very simple for me to make a contact with you....

< Previous | Contents | Next > ‌CHAPTER 8 8 August 1977 pm in Chuang Tzu Auditorium Deva means divine, upeeksha literally means ‘indifference’, but in english there is no exact word for it. Indifference feels like something negative; upeeksha is something very positive. It means a centering of consciousness so that you are not wavered by anything. Success comes, it is okay; failure comes, it is okay. That is called upeeksha....
