Sex-Love-Compassion

These three things are to be taken note of: the lowest love is sex – it is physical – and the highest refinement of love is compassion. Sex is below love, compassion is above love; love is exactly in the middle.
Very few people know what love is. Ninety-nine percent of people, unfortunately, think sexuality is love – it is not. Sexuality is very animal; it certainly has the potential of growing into love, but it is not actual love, only a potential….
If you become aware and alert, meditative, then sex can be transformed into love. And if your meditativeness becomes total, absolute, love can be transformed into compassion. Sex is the seed, love is the flower, compassion is the fragrance.

~ OSHO

Patience with Love

For enlightenment, the basic thing is patience, infinite patience. And readiness to wait, wait in love. This is difficult! Usually we wait in frustration, getting frustrated more and more.
Another type of waiting, is waiting in love. That waiting does not bring frustration. In fact, every moment is joyful and full of enthusiasm. That type of waiting is celebration.
You see? You don’t enjoy what you already have. You always look for the joy that you do not have. Your mind flows in that direction.
So waiting itself is very good sadhana (spiritual practice) that enhances the capacity for love, for acceptance. It increases the depth of our being. It’s very beautiful!

Anger !!!

“Anger is always a sign of weakness. Just plainly and simply put the whole thing; perhaps the other person may find that you are right and may be thankful to you. Or perhaps the other person may have better reasons than you; then you will be thankful to the other person because he helps to raise your consciousness”

~ Osho

No escape …

“I am here to shatter all illusions. Yes, it will irritate you, it will annoy you — that’s my way of functioning and working. I will sabotage you from your very roots! Unless you are totally destroyed as a mind, there is no hope for you.”

~ OSHO

Guru is Brahma Vishnu & Mahesh

WHO ARE YOU: BRAHMA, VISHNU, SHIIVA – OR GURU?
There are three forces: Brahma Shakti, Vishnu Shakti, and Shiva Shakti. You may have one of these dominant.
Brahma Shakti is the force to create something new. Vishnu Shakti is the ability to maintain.
Shiva Shakti infuses new life or destroys the old and brings transformation.
Some of you may have Brahma Shakti. You may create something well, but you may not be able to maintain it. For example, you may make friends fast, but your friendships do not last long.
Some of you cannot create but you are good at maintaining – for example, those who have long-lasting friendships but who have difficulty in making new friends. Here Vishnu Shakti is dominant. Some of you have more Shiva Shakti. You can bring in new life or transformation, or you can destroy the whole setup.
With Guru Shakti, all these three shaktis have blossomed fully. So identify which Shakti you have more of and aspire for Guru Shakti.
Guru makes a group, but a group cannot make a Guru.
