Oshoinfomoen/Osho

Beloved Osho, Who are You and what are you doing?

I am not, and I am not doing anything at all. But something is happening,

something tremendous is happening - that is another matter,

it has nothing to do with my doing it.

”I am not.” When I say this, I mean that there is no personality,

no person, but just a presence.

And the presence without the person looks almost like an absence.

It is. the person is absent.

I am only a hallow bamboo, and if you hear some music then it must be from God,

it is not from me; it has nothing to do with me.

I am not here, I have utterly disappeared. That´s what enlightenment is all about. Thats what Atisha calls bodhichitta.

But things are happening, they always happen.

Whenever a person disappears and becomes a presence,

immensely valuable things happen around him.

A great synchronicity starts functioning.

Those who are courageous enough to come close to such a presence starts changing, with no effort, just sheer grace,

start becoming totally different beings by just being in the buddhafield,

in the energy field of a master.

Osho

Osho - an enlightened Mystic

and

His vision

I am trying to give you a vision, not a belief. I am trying to help you to come to my window to see the sky, to see the truth. That truth cannot be described. And that truth cannot be made a dogma, and that truth contains all contradictions - because it is so vast. So I go on giving you glimpses, aspects of it: one aspect is contradictory to an other aspect. But in the whole truth, all aspects meet and mingle and are one.

Osho

The Beloved, Vol. 1 chap. 6

I teach freedom. Now man has to destroy all kinds of bondages and he has to come out of all prisons - no more slavery. Man has to become individual. He has to become rebellious.

My concept of the new man is that he will be Zorba the Greek and he will also be Gautam the Buddha. The new man will be Zorba the Buddha. He will be sensuous and spiritual - physical, utterly physical, in the body, in the senses, enjoying the body and all that the body makes possible, and still a great consciousness, a great witnessing will be there.

Be in the world but don´t be of it.

A Mystery School

The function of a mystery school - a mystery school just like this - is higher than the function of a university. Its function is to make you conscious of your consciousness. To be conscious of one´s consciousness is meditation; it is the first step to being really human.

Osho

The Guest, chap. 15

A mystery school simply means that we will be trying all kinds of methods, because I have worked on all the methods and I have created my own methods to help people. First they should go through my methods so their contemporary garbage is flushed out and they become innocent children, then they can use those beatiful methods which have been sharpened through the ages. Everything non-essential has been cut off. But those methods don´t say anything, what will happen on the path, what kind of experiences, what kind of dangers. For that a school is needed where there will be teachers who can help you, where there will be meditators who are ahead of you and can help you that, “ Don´t be worried, I have passed through the stage.” And I have all kinds of therapies which are absolutely necessary for modern meditators so first they should have a healthy psychology.
