Happy 2008 - Are you the Man on the Beach ??

"A camel keeper once came across a man walking across the Sahara Desert, wearing only a bathing costume.
”How far is it to the sea?” asked the man.
”About five hundred miles to the north,” said the camel keeper.
”Bugger me,” said the man, ”I will have to stay on the beach!”

If you go on living inside your mind you will have to live on the beach, you will never reach to the ocean. It is not five hundred miles, not even five – it does not even exist, it is a mirage!.

You can either go on projecting your fantasies, dreams, expectations on life and remain fast asleep OR see the very point and be awake. If you are awake, you have the quality of a Buddha,Jesus,Krishna or Mohammed.

Then things will be different, totally different. And there will not be any need to find anything special, to find any meaning. In the small things of life there is meaning, there is great significance. Each pebble on the seashore becomes a diamond. Then there are sermons in every stone and songs hidden in every rock and scriptures everywhere, because the world is full of God, overflowing with godliness. Yes, for the first time, you will know what life is and how beautiful it is and how blissful it is and what a benediction and a gift of God it is." ~OSHO

May 2008 bring more awareness into your life...creating an opportunity for your own awakening!!

Love to you all... Happy 2008!!!

Jesus !! The LOVE that is

"On the path of love celebration grows of its own accord, and dancing and singing, and life is no more a struggle but a let-go. And there are things which happen only when you are in a let-go. All that is great happens only when you are in a let-go. If you are in an effort to conquer, you will conquer only small things.

Conquerors can become at the most Adolf Hitlers, Napoleons or Alexanders. They never become Buddhas – they cannot. To become a Buddha or to become a Christ, one has to be not in the mood of conquering at all, but, on the contrary, to be conquered by god one has to be feminine. That is the secret of love: to be feminine, to be passive, to be open, vulnerable, ready to absorb, ready to be pregnant, just to be a womb, and all that is needed comes. That’s what I call trust – that it comes; whenever your real need is there, it comes. It never comes by your search. It comes only when your real need is there. When you are really thirsty, your thirst will be quenched.

That’s what Jesus means when he says ’Knock and the door shall be opened unto you. Ask and it shall be given. Seek and ye shall find.’ But by ’seeking’ he does not mean an active search, because he says ’The kingdom of god is within you.’

How can you seek it actively? Where can you go to search for it? There is nowhere to go. One has to relax into oneself. The seeking has to be passive,
the knocking has to be passive. It has to be a kind of prayer in love. "
