We are just here to enjoy-Osho Vision

    Don’t think of God as truth, rather, think of God as beauty. Religion would have been totally different if God were thought of as beauty rather than as truth. I am not saying that He is not true – He  is, but it makes a lot of difference for people in how they conceive of Him.

    Because God has been conceived of as truth, people started thinking logically about Him. Truth creates logic in consciousness, it stirs logic. Truth seems like the conclusion of a syllogism. People started arguing about God, started proving, disproving. Because God was conceived of as truth, religion automatically became reduced to theology. Rather than becoming poetry, it became theology. Rather than becoming an aesthetic experience, it became logic-chopping. Rather than enhancing the earth, making it more beautiful, it went against life. Logic is always against life; it is murderous because it depends on analysis; analysis kills. Because God was thought of as truth, religious people became thinkers, not creative artists. Just that simple phenomenon dominated the whole past of ten thousand years.

    Sufis say that God is beautiful, ‘jamil.’ Think of Him as beauty, then it stirs creativity in you. Because beauty has to be created – in poetry, in sculpture, in painting; one has to give birth to it. If you think of God as beauty then you can do something about it. If God is truth then you can’t do anything about it, you have to discover it. Truth is there – you have just to uncover it.

    But if God is beauty then you are not only to discover it, you have to create. Then the whole perspective changes and religion becomes life-affirmative. Then it enhances and affirms. It is not life-negative, it is not in the service of death. Then religion is not against love, because how can beauty be against love? Then religion is not against dance, it is not against celebration. How can beauty be against celebration? Then the earth is not a punishment but a holiday resort. We are here just to enjoy – it is a gift.

One should try to see life - as a divine gift-OSHO VISION

One should try to see life - as a divine gift. It is of tremendous value. Just to be is such a benediction, but because of our complaining mind and our grumbling mind, we never see the beauty that has already happened. We never see the treasure that has already been handed over to us.

     For small things we go on being negative and the great blessing of life simply passes by us. So try to see it. There are troubles, but they are nothing compared to the beauty that life makes available. There are anxieties . . .I am not saying it is all a bed of roses; there are thorns - but negligible. And in fact they make roses more beautiful. They help,  they enhance life by contrast.

     There is hatred and there is anger and there is jealousy, but they all function as a contrast to love. Without them, love will not be possible. There is death, there is misery, there is illness, there is disease, but they all make life possible. So always look to the positive -- that is the meaning of the name.

     If you start looking towards the positive, the negative loses meaning, because whatsoever we look at, we pour energy into. Then it surrounds us more and more. If you pay attention to the wrong, you are feeding the wrong. Attention is food -- very subtle food, very vital food.

     So just don't pay attention to the wrong. Don't pay attention to the black side of things. It is there -- accept it. Nobody is denying it, but what is the point of paying too much attention to it? That is a little pathological. It is a perversion, but everybody is doing that. That's how we go on missing god.

     God is possible only when your eyes are absolutely positive, when your eyes have no flaw of negativity in them. Suddenly you see that god has always been there. He is your surround. He is within and without. This is what I call preparation -- to make eyes absolutely flawless . . .and negativity is the flaw.

     So whatsoever happens, take it rightly. Even if it gives pain, remember that it must be there, because without it pleasure is not possible. Accept it. That is the meaning of prasadam. It is one of the most beautiful words. When you go to a saint in India, he gives you something as prasad . . .  maybe a little sweet or a fruit.

     I don t give you any sweet, any fruit. I give you to yourself - that's my prasad.

Η Αγάπη είναι το ξεκίνημα μιάς φωτεινής μέρας-Το Όραμα του Όσσο ( OSHO VISION )

Η Αγάπη είναι το ξεκίνημα μιάς φωτεινής ημέρας, η αγάπη είναι η αυγή.

Χωρίς την αγάπη ο άνθρωπος δεν είναι τίποτα, παρά μια σκοτεινή νύχτα, μια σκοτεινή νύχτα χωρίς αστέρια, μια σκοτεινή νύχτα χωρίς φεγγάρι, μια σκοτεινή νύχτα χωρίς ακόμη και ένα κερί.

Ένας άνθρωπος χωρίς αγάπη ζει στην κόλαση.

Είναι η αγάπη που σε βοηθάει να βγείς εξω απο το σκοτάδι.

Είναι η αγάπη που φέρνει την ποίηση στην ύπαρξη σου.

Σε ξυπνάει μέσα στην επίγνωση σου.

Είναι το ξεκίνημα της ημέρας.

Η ημέρα εκπροσωπεί την αφύπνιση, συνείδηση, η νύχτα εκπροσωπεί το ασυνείδητο .

Και χωρίς αγάπη δεν υπάρχει πιθανότητα της αυγής.

Μεμιάς γνωρίζοντας την αγάπη, η νύχτα είναι τόσο φωτεινή όπως η ημέρα.

Μετά είναι γεμάτη απο αστέρια και φεγγάρι, μετά έχει την δική της λάμψη.

Η Νταιάνα έχει επίσης το δικό της νόημα: είναι το όνομα της Θεάς του Φεγγαριού.

Ξανά, είναι φυτεμένο στην ιδέα του φωτός.Εάν το φεγγάρι είναι εκεί,εάν η πανσέληνος είναι εκεί, ακόμη και η νύχτα δεν είναι πλέον νύχτα.

Εαν είσαι αφυπνισμένος, συνειδητός, τότε ακόμη και στην κόλαση θα δημιουργήσεις τον δικό σου παράδεισο.

Bliss-Osho Vision

Image by Maryam Morrison

Bliss is unborn, hence it cannot die. That which is born is bound to die: birth brings death in. Birth is the beginning of death, so whatsoever is born is going to die. Whatsoever has a beginning is going to have an end. Bliss has no beginning and it has no end; it is eternal, it is timeless, deathless. We are made of it. In fact the whole existence is made of it; but we are not aware, we have not looked into our own being to see what we are made of.

     A great digging is needed inside, and when we reach to the very core of our being a great surprise is waiting there. We are gods, goddesses, eternal entities, immortal beings, inexhaustible bliss.

     This is the search of a sannyasin.
