Послания любви. 365 писем Ошо
Шрифт:

Anxieties exist in life but there is no need to worry about them.

Worrying stems not from the anxieties but from our attitude towards them.

To be anxious or not is always our open choice.

It is not that a non-anxious mind is free of anxieties – anxieties are there,

they are an unavoidable part of life –

but it does not burden itself with them.

Such a person always sees beyond them;

dark nights surround him too but his eyes look to the rising sun

and therefore his soul

is never drowned in darkness.

And this alone is enough —

that the soul not be drowned in darkness.

The body is bound to drown in it – in fact it already has.

Those who are condemned to die live their lives in darkness;

only the deathless have their lives rooted in the light.

Blessings to the children and regards to all.

117. Love.

There is no greater power than trusting oneself –

its fragrance is not of this world;

peace, bliss and truth flow from this fragrance.

He who trusts himself is in heaven

and he who mistrusts himself

holds the keys of hell in his hands.

The Scottish philosopher David Hume was an atheist,

but every Sunday he made it a point

to attend the sermon of John Brown,

a confirmed theist.

When people pointed out

that going to church was against his own principles

he laughed – and replied: I have no faith whatever

in what John Brown says,

but John Brown has total faith in what John Brown says.

So once a week I make a point of hearing a man

who has total faith in himself!

118. Love.

Love is also fire,

but a cool fire.

Yet we have to burn in it

because it also purifies;

it burns only to purify.

The dross burns

leaving pure gold.

In the same way my love will bring suffering

because I wish to destroy you in order to recreate you.

The seed must be broken –

how else can the tree be born?

The river must end –

how else is it to merge with the ocean?

So let go of yourself and die –

how else will you find the self?

119. Love.

Truth is discovered not through swimming

but through drowning.

Swimming is a surface happening,

drowning takes you to the infinite depths.

120. Love.

The search for meaning is disastrous;

it has brought nothing but meaninglessness.

To see that there is no meaning –

is to have the real meaning

where meaninglessness cannot be,

where meaning doesn’t matter

and so its disasters are avoided.

What remains just is, and what is,

is and what is not, is not and that’s all.

You ask for a clear statement about motivelessness.

Your attempt to understand cannot succeed

because it is motivated!

Why bother about understanding?

Look, isn’t the thing clear before you there?

All things are open!

All things are clear!

But man is so busy understanding no one is left to see what is clear,

what is obvious, what is there!

Confusion is the effort to understand.

Ignorance is the effort to know.

If you don’t try to understand or know,

nothing can hide itself from you!

Truth is always in front of you, naked, clear.

121. Love.

You say you feel broken.

It would be better if you broke down completely and disappeared.

That which is will always be the case

and that which has become is bound to vanish.

Becoming always leads to dissolution so do not try to save yourself.

One who loses himself goes beyond life and death,

and he who saves himself is lost.

You are busy saving yourself

and that is why you are afraid of breaking down.

But what is there to save?

And that which is worth saving is already saved.

122. Love.

You long for the sun

and you will get it for sure,

but you have to have the courage to burn!

You can’t reach the light without dying,

for ego is darkness,

and besides, the sun isn’t anywhere outside

but is born within when everything else there burns.

When the self is alight – that is the light.

The fear of dying is darkness,

the jump into death is the light.

Die, and know this!

Disappear, and you will find it.

That is why I say love is prayer –

it is the first lesson in death.

Regards to all.

123. Love.

Do not look for a purpose in life but live, and live totally.

Do not be serious and grave but turn life into a dance.

Dance – like the waves on the sea!

Blossom – like the flowers in spring!

Sing – as the birds do continuously!

All without purpose, for no reason; then purpose is there,

and all mystery is solved.
