A small child has no ambitions, he has no desires. He is so absorbed in the moment - a bird on the wing catches his eye so totally; just a butterfly, its beautiful colors, and he is enchanted; the rainbow in the sky... and he cannot conceive that there can be anything more significant, richer than this rainbow. And the night full of stars, stars beyond stars... Innocence is rich, it is full, it is pure.
RajneeshTrue freedom is always spiritual. It has something to do with your innermost being, which cannot be chained, handcuffed, or put into a jail.

RajneeshYou become more divine as you become more creative. All the religions of the world have said God is the creator. I donโt know whether he is the creator or not, but one thing I know: the more creative you become, the more godly you become.

RajneeshMind is dual, it always divides things into polar opposites: the conqueror and the conquered, the observer and the observed, the object and the subject, the day and the night. It goes on dividing things which are not divided. Neither is the day divided from the night, nor is birth divided from death. They are one energy. But mind goes on dividing everything into polarities, opposites. Nothing is opposite in existence; every contradiction is only apparent. Deep down all contradictions are meeting together.
