Sadness comes, joy comes, and everything passes by. What remains always is the witness. The witness is beyond all polarities.
RajneeshEvery child is so helpless - just to survive he has to be political, he has to accept whatsoever the parents are saying.
RajneeshJust as the day cannot exist without the night, just as life cannot exist without death, creativity cannot exist without silence. And vice versa is also true: silence cannot exist without creativity.
RajneeshThere is no separate art of life. If you know how to allow poetry, if you know how to allow dance, if you know how to allow love - if you know how to ALLOW, then you know the art of life. In the allowing, in the let-go, in the surrender, is the art of life. How not to be and to let God be - that is the only art of life.
RajneeshZen is all-inclusive. It never denies, it never says no to anything; it accepts everything and transforms it into a higher reality.
RajneeshJust understand, don`t choose - don`t choose even choicelessness. Simply understand the whole situation: that whatsoever you choose, whatsoever you do, will come out of the calculating mind. It cannot be the real thing. Your mind can only produce dreams, it cannot produce the truth. Truth cannot be produced, nobody can produce it. It is there; it has to be seen. Nothing has to be done, just a look is needed - a look without any prejudice, a look without any choice, a look without any distinctions.
