Deep love creates deep fear. It looks like death because the I disappears, the you disappears - and it is a sort of death. And when you die, only then do you enter into the divine.
Rajneesh<...> God is a person; godliness is a quality. You cannot become God, but you can be godly. <...>.
RajneeshTake life easily, lovingly, playfully, non-seriously. Seriousness is a disease, the greatest disease of the soul and playfulness the greatest health.
RajneeshWe have come into the world naked, and all the animals are naked, why should man hide his body behind clothes?
RajneeshPleasure is a sort of oblivion, a forgetfulness. Pain is remembrance, you cannot forget pain.
RajneeshSo silently, peacefully, without hurry, without any tension, without any anguish, move into yourself instantly. It is urgent. Unless meditation becomes urgent to you, it will never happen; you will die before it. Put meditation on your laundry list as the most important, urgent... number one. But meditation in your life is just at the very end of your laundry list - and the laundry list goes on becoming bigger and bigger. And before you finish your laundry list, you are finished, so the time for meditation never comes.
