Osho Quotes on Seeker
- 记住, 总记得. 佛陀一再坚持: 记住你是一个寻求者. 你正在寻找你真正的家; 你还没有找到. 你一直在寻找的许多生命, this life also you are seeking. Have you found it? Don’t waste your time, don’t go astray. Pour your whole energy into seeking, because nobody knows about tomorrow. This may be your last day. Find it so that you can live joyously and you can die joyously. YOU ARE A SEEKER.
- 完全是任何求道者的基本要求, 对于任何寻求沉默和真相的人.
- To be a sannyasin, to be a seeker of truth, means getting out of the world of crowd psychology, the mob mentality. Unless you become aware that the crowd is dragging you with itself and you step out of the power of the crowd, you will never be able to know what truth is, you will never become a buddha. And to be a buddha is your birthright.
- If you come to me and you are really a seeker of truth, you immediately become related to me.
- The seeker has to be empty, 不带偏见. The seeker has to be without any idea of what God is, or truth is. If he has some idea, the danger is he will project his idea on the existence and he will think that he has come to know the truth. Truth can be known only when you are utterly empty, when there is nothing to distort or project inside you; when you are so silent that you are only receptive, not projective. In total receptivity truth is known.
- A seeker should keep in mind only one factor, and that is: to utilize each moment to awaken awareness. Then be it hunger or anger or lust or greed, every state can be utilized towards awareness. If you go on accumulating awareness bit by bit, eventually you will have a good store of fuel within you. In the flame this fuel creates, you will find that you are neither awake nor dreaming nor in deep slumber; you are beyond and apart from all three.
- It is one of the perennial problems encountered by every seeker of truth. You cannot grasp truth — if you try, it will be far far away. You cannot possess truth — if you try, you will find your hands utterly empty. Truth cannot be possessed because it is not a thing. 相反, you have to be courageous enough to be possessed by truth — because it is a love affair.
- 记住, if you are a real seeker… and this is a strange paradox: if you are a real seeker, you will have to drop all seeking as such. Otherwise you will go on seeking one thing after another, 没有尽头. When all seeking stops, you are suddenly at the very center of your being. Seeking drives you outside, seeking takes you away from yourself. 耶稣说: Seek and ye shall find. Knock and the doors shall be opened unto you. Ask and it shall be given.
- The first thing for the seeker is to get rid of all these beliefs given by others. A believer can never find the truth.
- The true seeker holds back nothing, he gives everything that he has. He shares totally his love, his joy, his experience — and he holds to nothing, he clings to nothing. He need not cling to anything: the whole universe belongs to him, the whole kingdom of God is his.
- A seeker means one for whom the inquiry is not only curiosity, not a childish phenomenon, but a mature inquiry, for whom it has become a question of life and death. Unless truth becomes a question of life and death you are not a seeker.
- 克里希纳, 在梵歌中, 说: 真正的探索者即使在其他人熟睡时也醒着. 当别人是黑夜时，他却是白天. 他内心深处的某种东西始终保持警惕. 对于其他人来说是一个夜晚，对于有意识的人来说却不是一个夜晚, 谁是警觉的, 谁在冥想, 谁是平衡的, 谁生活在平衡之中, 谁生活在沉默中. 他内心深处的某种东西一直在苏醒. 身体在睡觉, 头脑睡着了, 但灵魂始终保持警惕. 它从不累，所以根本不需要睡觉. 这是意识本身; 它是由意识构成的.
- The seeker has to be very cautious, very conscious on each step; because the false is easy to attain. It is very easy to become dead, and very difficult to be overflowing with life.
- 耶稣说: Truth liberates. This is one of the most important statements ever made, very fundamental for every seeker to understand. Truth liberates — not the truth that you gather from scriptures but the truth that you come across through your own experiencing.
- Science is male, religion is female. Science is an effort to conquer nature; religion is a let-go, dissolving oneself into nature. The woman knows how to melt, 如何成为一个. And each seeker of truth has to know how to dissolve into nature, how to become one with nature, how to go with the flow, without resisting, without fighting. And then you will see: the proportion will always be the same.
- The truth of science is outside, but the truth of religion is within. Jesus may have discovered it, but his discovery will remain personal. It cannot be transferred to anybody else. Buddha may have discovered it, but the discovery will disappear w hen Buddha disappears. Each and every seeker will have to find the truth again and again, individually.
- Every human being would be a seeker of truth if the society were not interfering with children.
- As far as I am concerned the basic quality of a seeker of truth is to cut himself away from all belief systems, from all borrowed knowledge — in other words, to have the courage to be ignorant rather than to have borrowed knowledge. Ignorance has a beauty; it is at least yours, 真正的, sincere. It has come with you. It is your blood, it is your bones, it is your marrow. Knowledgeability is ugly, absolute rubbish. It has been poured upon you by others, and you are carrying the load of it. And the load is such that it will not give you any opportunity to enquire on your own what truth is. Your collection of knowledge will answer immediately that this is truth.
