Meditation Instruction #6

Listen here, Namkhai Nyingpo, mendicant from Nub!

Your mind is simplicity free from ego and a self,

So remain in its self-occurring, self-subsiding state, free from artifice!

At that moment, bliss arises from within,

The signs of progress occur spontaneously; this is itself the awakened state!

— Guru Rinpoche

Advice from the Lotus-Born (2004)

OSHO

Happiness is always there, but if you seek it you will find unhappiness, because by seeking you will miss happiness. That's what unhappiness is: missing happiness. So with pursuit, unhappiness has a certain relationship, a partnership. If you pursue you will find unhappiness. And the American constitution has given the idea to the whole American people: Pursue.

And they are pursuing desperately - in money, in power, in religion - and they are running all over the world looking for somebody to teach them how to find happiness. And the real thing is to just come back home; forget all about it. Do something else which has nothing to do with happiness.

FROM PERSONALITY TO INDIVIDUALITY

Seek and ye shall miss; relax and ye shall find

Shivaratna puri baba

Shivapuri Baba was undoubtedly one of the rarest flowerings, especially in India, where so many fools claim to be mahatmas. Finding a guy like Shivapuri Baba in India takes either a lot of luck or a lot of investigation. In India, there are 500,000 mahatmas, according to official figures. It’s almost hard to spot a genuine guy amid this throng.

~ Osho Quotes

In the absence of divine awareness, man’s whole existence is a type of dream. All the opposing pairings of good and bad, and so on, seem to exist only in this dream.

OSHO

The sensual person is always after something, trying to achieve – money, power, prestige. The sensitive person is simply alive here now, enjoying the beauty that is available. When tomorrow comes then tomorrow will take care of itself.

“If there is peace in your mind you will find peace with everybody. If your mind is agitated, you will find agitation everywhere. So first find peace within and you will see this inner peace reflected everywhere else. You are this peace!” 

– Papaji

OSHO

EITHER/OR 

Mind functions in an either/or way: either this can be right or its opposite can be right. Both together cannot be right – as far as mind, its logic, its rationality, is concerned.  If mind is either/or, then the heart is both/and. The heart has no logic, but a sensitivity, a perceptivity. It can see that not only can both be together; in fact, they are not two. 

It is just one phenomenon, seen from two different aspects. And there is much more than the two – that’s why I say “both/and.”  And the heart is always right. If there is a question of choosing between the mind and the heart... because mind is a creation of the society. It has been educated.ucated. It has been given to you by the society, not by existence. The heart is unpolluted. It is pure existence; hence, it has a sensitivity.  Look from the viewpoint of the heart, and the contradiction starts melting like ice.

SALT DOLL  (Sri Ramakrishna parable) 

A salt doll wanted to measure the ocean’s depth.

It wanted to be the first to tell how deep it was.

But the moment it got into the water, it melted.

Man in Samadhi, knowing (becoming) Brahman

goes  beyond reason and is mute. No longer has

he the power to describe the nature of Brahman.
