God is always joking. Look at your own life - it is a joke! Look at other people's lives, and you will find jokes and jokes and jokes. Seriousness is illness; seriousness has nothing spiritual about it. Spirituality is laughter, spirituality is joy, spirituality is fun.
RajneeshSometimes happiness comes, sometimes sadness, anger, jealousy - you need not make them your problems
RajneeshLaughing, how can you fall asleep? It brings a state of no-mind and no-thought, and does not allow you to fall asleep.
RajneeshEnlightenment is nothing but your consciousness being concentrated on a single point - now and here.
RajneeshPeople have a very limited idea of what being creative is - playing the guitar or the flute or writing poetry - so people go on writing rubbish in the name of poetry. You have to find out what you can do and what you cannot do. Everybody cannot do everything. You have to search and find your destiny. You have to grope in the dark, I know. It is not very clear-cut what your destiny is, but that's how life is. And it is good that one has to search for it - in the very search, something grows.
Rajneesh
