Osho Quotes and Sayings
- If you can bring your consciousness, your awareness, your intelligence to the act, if you can be spontaneous, then there is no need for any other religion, life itself will be the religion.
- You have to realize the buddha in your whole life — in your actions, in your inactions.
- Meditation is a death, a death of all that is false in you. And only then, that which is not false is experienced. That experience is resurrection — a new life, the birth of a new man.
- In meditation, nothing goes wrong — ever.
Without meditation, everything is going wrong. - If we can destroy those ugly lines on the map which divide humanity — there is no reason for war: one thing.
- Meditation is beyond psychology. It is not psychology. It has nothing to do with brain, it has nothing to do with the mind either. It is a state of no-mind.
- The whole humanity is living in a hell. No joy, no love, no flowering; and the simple reason is, we create a split from the very beginning. We try to repress the real and impose the unreal. My message is, it is time enough to stop it.
- If you destroy belief systems slowly slowly you come upon a strange experience, that all that you have is only this moment. All else is just rubbish. Only this pure moment is existential.

- I teach the art of living.
Not of renouncing, but of rejoicing. - if you love and love intensely, sex is the first thing that gives you a feeling of religiousness. To me the orgasmic experience is the first experience of religion. You don’t get it in the churches, you don’t get it in the temples. You get it when you are in total love, immersed with your lover, forgotten everything, thoughts stop, for a moment time stops and that is the moment when you first experience something beyond mind. So to me sex is something sacred. It should be respected. And all the religions have been condemning it.
- To me there is no God, existence is enough unto itself. And a deep feeling of gratitude towards existence is what I mean by religiousness.
