奥修行情涅槃

奥修行情涅槃

  1. No mind is the door of Nirvana.
  2. 心永不涅槃. 实际上, 心连涅槃的念头都无法想像. 涅槃 … 这个词的意思是心的停止, it is annihilation of the mind.
  3. When you are in a state of no-mind, something unimaginable, unbelievable, unpredictable, inexpressible, 是. experienced. 你可以称它为上帝, 你可以称之为真理, 你可以称之为 NIRVANA, or whatsoever you want to call it.
  4. Everything is made of the same stuff, the same existence, the same consciousness of no-mind; only names differ. 你可以叫它任何东西 — nirvana; you can call it salvation; you can call it liberation. But these are different names of the same space which accurately described is just no-mind, or beyond the mind. You appear in a space which has no limits, no boundaries, and suddenly you become aware that your being has been here since eternity, and it is going to be here forever. This very no-mind is the buddha, and this very moment is the lotus paradise. 你不必去任何地方. You have to just sink inwards to find the bottom of your being.
  5. Mind dissolves only when you don’t choose. And when there is no mind, you are for the first time in your crystal clarity, for the first time in your original freshness. For the first time your real face is encountered. Mind is not therethe divider. Now existence appears as one. Mind has dropped; the barrier between you and existence is no more. Now you can look at existence with no mind. This is how a sage is born. With the mindthe world. With no mind — 自由, MOKSHA, 凯瓦雅, NIRVANA. Cessation of the mind is cessation of the world.
  6. This is what we have called nirvanacessation of your being completely, as if a drop has dropped into the ocean. and has become the ocean. The wave disappears, individuality is no more, you have become the whole. And when you have become the wholeonly then you are really healthy; that is why Lao Tzu says: The sage is not sickminded. In fact the sage has no mind. How can he be sickminded?
  7. Religious freedom is freedom not from somebody else, but from yourself. You are no more. Because you are no more, a few masters in the East have called it anattano-selfness. Buddha called it nirvanawhich is very close to anatta, no-selfness, or selflessnessjust a zero, a profound nothingness surrounding you. But it is not emptiness, it is fullness: fullness of being, of ultimate joy, fullness of being blessed, fullness of gracefulness. All that you have known before is no more there; hence is it empty of all that. But something new, absolutely new you had not even dreamt about, is discovered.
  8. There are two laws. One law is of the mind. With the law of the mind you go on creating hell around you; friends become foes, lovers prove enemies, flowers become thorns. Life becomes a burden. One simply suffers life. With the law of mind, you live in hell wherever you live. If you slip out of the mind, you have slipped out of that law, and suddenly you live in a totally different world. That different world is nirvana. That different world is God. Then without doing, everything starts happening.
  9. Each person has to come back to the Garden of Eden again. The doors are not closed. ‘Knock, and they shall be opened unto you. 问, and it shall be given.But one has to turn back. The path is from doing towards happening, from the ego towards no-ego, from mind towards no-mind. 无心是冥想的全部内容. That different world is nirvana. That different world is God.
  10. Heaven and hell are only two sides of your mind. The religions that were born outside India have remained with these two ideas, heaven and hell. They could not rise above them. 犹太教, Christianity, Islamall the three religions born outside India, have no idea of something transcendental. In India we have a third word MOKSHA, NIRVANA.
  11. In the East the work has moved into a totally different dimension. We have to let this mind go. Each part of the mind has to be dropped slowly slowly. In deep awareness, 沉思, thoughts disappear. Sooner or later mind becomes contentless, and when the mind is contentless, it is no-mindbecause mind as such is nothing but the whole process of thought. When you are without thought, not even a single thought stirring in your being, then there is no-mind. You can call it individuation, you can call it SAMADHI, YOU can call it NIRVANA or what you will.
  12. Look at life, and by and by you will understand that life has its own very logical logic. Be attuned to it and that will become the door for your ecstasy, 三摩地, nirvana.
  13. My whole effort is to take all the props away from you, all beliefs, Osho included. First I pretend to give you helpbecause that is the only language you understand! Then by and by I start withdrawing myself. First I take you away from your other desires and help you to become very passionate about nirvana, liberation, 真相. And when I see that now all desires have disappeared, there is only one desire left, then I start hammering on that desire, and I say, ‘Drop it because this is the only barrier.Nirvana is the last nightmare. You cannot go back because once you have dropped those futile desires, you cannot get back into them. Once you have dropped them, the very charm, the very mystery disappears from them. You cannot really believe how you were carrying them for so long. The whole thing looks so ridiculous that you cannot go back. And I start taking the last desire from you. Once the last desire disappears, you are enlightened. Then you are Osho. My whole effort here is to make you capable of declaring yourself to be a God alsoand not only declaring it, living it too.
  14. A devotee is one who has not only dropped his mind but has brought his heart in, who listens from the heartnot from logic but from love. The disciple is on the way to being a devotee. The disciple is the beginning of being a devotee, and the devotee is the fulfillment of being a disciple. Only these few people understand a Buddha. And in understanding a Buddha they are transformed, transported into another worldthe world of liberation, nirvana, light, 爱, 祝福.
  15. All the religions have fallen because of this simple innocence of the mystics. 乔达摩佛是最有文化和受过教育的, 成为神秘主义者的最老练的人. 整个历史没有可比性. 他可以看到无辜的神秘主义者不知不觉地给了狡猾的头脑以利用的机会. 他决定不对最终目标使用任何积极的术语, 摧毁你的自我和你的自我利用任何机会的任何可能性. 他称终极, 虚无, emptiness, 春夜田, 零. 现在, 小我怎么能让零成为目标? 上帝可以成为目标, 但不为零. 谁想变成零? — 这就是恐惧. 每个人都在避免一切归零的可能性, 佛陀用它表达了究竟. 他的话是涅盘. 他选择了一个极其美丽的词, 但他选择了“涅盘”这个词,震惊了所有的思想家和哲学家’ 作为极致体验的最显着表达. 涅槃意味着吹灭蜡烛. The other mystics have said that you are filled with enormous light, as if thousands of suns together have suddenly risen inside you, as if the whole sky full of stars has descended within your heart. These ideas appeal to the ego. The ego would like to have all the stars, if not inside the chest then at least hanging on the coat outside the chest. “Enormous light”… the ego is very willing. To cut the very roots, Buddha says the experience is as if you were to blow out a candle. There was a small flame on the candle giving a small lighteven that is gone, and you are surrounded with absolute darkness, abysmal darkness.
  16. You have come to a point of nirvana, of cessation, of disappearance, of blowing out the candle. This is the ultimate experience. If you can gather courage, just one step moreExistence is only one step away from you.
  17. Buddha said again and again, “That is the beauty of the word. All those words which create desire in you are not going to help you, because desire itself is the root cause of your misery. Longing for something is your tension. Nirvana makes you absolutely free from tension: there is nothing to desire. On the contrary, you have to prepare yourself to accept a dissolution. In dissolution you cannot claim the ego, hence the word remains unpolluted.No other word has remained unpolluted. Its negativity is the reasonand only a great master can contribute to humanity something which, even if you want, you cannot pollute. Twenty-five centuriesbut there is no way. Nirvana is going to dissolve you; you cannot do anything to nirvana. It is certainly the purest word. Even its sound, whether you understand the meaning or not, is soothing, gives a deep serenity and silence, which no other wordgod-realization, 绝对的, 终极的… no other word gives that feeling of silence. The moment you hear the word nirvana it seems as if time has stopped, as if there is nowhere to go. In this very moment you can melt, dissolve, 消失, without leaving any trace behind.
  18. There is nothing wrong in doing your own thingjust remember that it is accidental. First know thyself, and then do anything that happens, that comes up out of your nothingness. And out of nothingness always comes the lotus of nirvana.
  19. Clean the lower mind and just a simple method of meditation will give you the wings to move upwards. There is no barrier. You get more and more into light, deeper and deeper into bliss, and finally you come to a point where even you are no morenirvana.
  20. This ocean of nothingness surrounding you is nirvana.
  21. Your small flame of the ego, your small flame of the mind and its consciousness, is preventing the whole universe from rushing into you; hence the word nirvanablow out the candle and let the whole universe penetrate you from every nook and corner. You will not be a loser. You will find, 首次, your inexhaustible treasure of beauty, of goodness, of truthof all that is valuable. 因此, mind cannot be said to reach nirvana; only no-mind is equivalent to nirvana. No-mind need not reach to nirvana. No-mind is nirvana.
  22. You cannot make enlightenment an object of your greed. You cannot make it an object of your ambition. And that is where the so-called sages and saints come in. They have made enlightenment, liberation, moksha, nirvana, a goalan achievement. Then it becomes an ego trip. They are trapped, badly trapped. Nirvana has to flower within you. When you have dropped the mind with all its desire, with all its ambitions, with all its program for achievements, when you have dropped your whole mind full of greed …. Whether the greed concerns money, or the greed concerns enlightenment, it does not make any difference. Mind can go on changing from object to object. But it remains the same mind full of greed. The moment mind is completely dropped, you suddenly find enlightenment is not a goal. It is your self-nature. Suddenly the lotus blossoms open their petals and you are full of fragrance. And this fragrance is not different in the arhatas or in the bodhisattvas. They both are buddhas; they both are enlightened people.
  23. That’s why Bodhidharma is saying: Awareness, beholding the mind, is the most essential method to have a breakthrough. And once you have gone just a step beyond the mind, you have entered the world of nirvana, you have entered the world of light and eternal life. You have attained to spiritual integrity, 自由, and tremendous ecstasy which the mind cannot even dream about.
  24. 男人一直在努力, 流传千古, 以某种方式拥有某种永生. 对死亡的恐惧是如此之大, 它困扰着你一生. 在你放弃分离念头的那一刻, 对死亡的恐惧消失了. 因此,我称这种投降状态是最矛盾的. 你自己死了,然后你根本就死不了, 因为整体永不消亡, 只有它的零件被更换. 但如果你与整体融为一体, 你会永远活着: 你将超越生死. 那是对涅盘的追寻, enlightenment, moksha, the kingdom of God — 不死状态. 但是要满足的条件却很可怕. 条件是: 首先你必须作为一个独立的实体死去. 这就是投降的意义所在: 作为一个独立的实体死去, 作为一个自我死去. 事实上,这没什么好担心的, 因为你不是分开的, 这只是一种信念. 所以只有信念死了, 不是你. 这只是一个概念, 一个主意.
  25. 冥想, 禅, never promises you anything. It simply gives you here and now. Mind is a postponement, it says, “It will happen. It will happen gradually. Go by and by. 不要着急, nothing can be done right now.Mind says, “Time is needed. Long is the path. Much has to be done and unless you do it, how can you attain?” Mind always divides ends and means. In reality, 没有划分. Every step is the goal, and every moment is nirvana. The present is all that exists. Future is the most illusory thing, it is a creation of the mind. But you believe in the mind, and it is really wonderful, you don’t even get dis-couraged!
  26. 你听心, 你变得悲惨 — 否则, 今天是天堂! 而且没有其他天堂, 今天是涅槃. 如果你不听心… 只是不要听从头脑, 那么你就没有痛苦; 因为没有期望和希望,苦难就不可能存在. 当苦难存在时,你需要更多的希望, to hide it, 以某种方式生活.
  27. When the mind has no question to ask, in that utter silence where no question is present, you come to know that which is — 两者之间是分裂的思想, call it Tao, 真相, NIRVANA, or what you will.
  28. This is what Buddhists call Nirvanacessation of desire. Buddha says that when there is no desire you will cease: you will disperse into the cosmos.
  29. NIRVANA is to know that all that mind creates is useless. Why not move into that which is uncreated by mind? That is the ultimate. Then there is no misery and no happiness: no good, no bad, 没有天堂, 没有地狱.
  30. That not-knowing comes, that not-knowing is enlightenment. Buddha has not known a single thing. All that he has come to is, his questions have disappeared. Now there is no more any question buzzing in his mind; all that noise has gone. He is left alone in silence. He is no more a knower, he has no claim that he knows this or that. He knows only nothing. That’s what Buddha calls ‘nirvana’ — to know nothing, or to know ONLY nothing. To be in a state of not-knowing is samadhi.
  31. Whatsoever the goalit does not matter what that goal isit may be God-realization, it may be attainment of nirvanastill it is a goal and any goal is against meditation. But our whole mind exists in the future; our mind is against the present. In the present the mind dies. How can the mind exist in the present? If you are utterly now, utterly here, there is no question of mind. You cannot think because thinking needs space and the present has no space in it. It is just like a needle point: it cannot contain anything, not even a single thought.
  32. The day you become tired of this very coming and going you become religious. Then a new element has entered into your consciousness, a new ray of light. Then you start thinking of nirvana. Ordinary death is getting rid of one life so that you can live again; nirvana is getting rid of all lives so you don’t live as an individual, you start living as the universe, you start living as God. Then there is no need to come back to the body, to the mind, to the ego.
