OSHO about OSHO

Why do you always look in your hands before you start answering the first question? Do I see it wrongly, or do you find the answer there? "My hands are empty. I don't have any answer.You have questions; I don't answer you, I simply destroy your questions.

Listening is the same as hearing, isn't it? Osho describes how different these two really are, and how one leads to transformation. "The art of listening is based on silence in the mind, so that the mind does not interfere, it simply allows whatever is coming to you. I am not saying you have to agree with it. Listening does not mean that you have to agree with it, neither does it mean that you have to disagree with it. The art of listening is just pure listening, factual, undistorted.

OSHO: I Am Vast, Okay? http://www.osho.com/visit Osho, a contemporary mystic speaks on virtually every aspect of human consciousness. In these talks, the human condition, whether the mind, the heart, love or awareness is exposed with humor and insight, as never before.

Did you ever ask yourself why all the religions of the world insist on believing, believing firmly, totally, passionately? Perhaps they have a suspicion, a good reason – that with a little intelligent inquiry, their foundations might not look so solid after all? “Nobody asks me, "Do you believe in the rose-flower?" There is no need. You can see: the rose-flower is there or it is not there. Only fictions, not facts, have to be believed. God is the greatest fiction that man has created.

With humor and insight, dotted with anecdotes, Osho tells yet another story of his early childhood. "I have met remarkable men, but the more remarkable a man was, the more alert I was not to be influenced, because I want to remain myself -- good, bad, famous, notorious, but I want to be just myself. And I have retained my individuality, not even a dent on it. I don't like even a dent on my car." Osho Excerpt form an interview with Osho by Denise Kovacevic KATU TV, Channel 2 Portland, Oregon, USA.

Over time Osho had his disciples well prepared for his departure. "It has been always a great moment in the lives of disciples when the master leaves the body. And it is possible because the master can know when he is going to leave the body – he can collect all those who have been his fellow travelers moving in the same way. Now that he is leaving he would like to give you his last gift." This video shows the events and celebrations around his departure.

Osho shares the understanding about his talks.
