But then you become closed. Then you start dying as far as your intelligence is concerned because intelligence needs the open sky, the wind, the air, the sun in order to grow, to expand, to flow. To remain alive it needs a constant flow; if it becomes stagnant it becomes slowly slowly a dead phenomenon.
RajneeshMeditation means to be in non-doing. Meditation is not a doing but a state of being. It is a state of being in one's own self.
RajneeshNever be ashamed of your tears. Be proud that you are still natural. Be proud that you can express the inexpressible through your tears.
RajneeshYour whole idea about yourself is borrowed-- borrowed from those who have no idea of who they are themselves.
RajneeshThe whole art of allowing the truth to take possession of you is of being vulnerable, of being open, of being in a let-go. Or in other words, the whole art consists of one word, "surrender". And that's what sannyas is, that's my definition of a sannyasin: a man who is surrendered to existence so totally that he never thinks in terms of achievement any more, because he is no more. Who is there to achieve? - he has disappeared totally, he has not left even a trace behind. In that very moment, when you are just a pure nothingness, truth arrives. It is a gift of God.
