It never ceases to amaze me just how powerful words can be:
An eye for an eye only succeeds in making the whole world blind. - Gandhi
You can go on changing the outer for lives and you will never be satisfied; something or other will remain to be changed. Unless the inner changes, the outer can never be perfect. - Osho
If I have the belief that I can do it, I shall surely acquire the capacity to do it even if I may not have it at the beginning. - Gandhi
Seriousness is a sickness; your sense of humor makes you more human, more humble. The sense of humor -- according to me -- is one of the most essential parts of religiousness. - Osho
Strength does not come from physical capacity. It comes from an indomitable will. - Gandhi
GOD is just a name of the totality of existence. - Osho
Capital as such is not evil; it is its wrong use that is evil. Capital in some form or other will always be needed. - Gandhi
Existence is not a problem to be solved, it is a mystery to be lived. A problem is something created by the mind; a mystery is something which is there, not created by the mind. A problem has an ugliness in it, like disease. A mystery is beautiful. With a problem, immediately a fight arises. You have to solve it; something is wrong, you have to put it right; something is missing, you have to supply the missing link. With a mystery there is no question like that. The moon arises in the night.... It is not a problem, it is a mystery. You have to live with it. You have to dance with it. . You have to sing with it, or you can be just silent with it. Something mysterious surrounds you. - Osho
The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others. - Gandhi
Looking at a sunset, just for a second you forget your separateness: you are the sunset. That is the moment when you feel the beauty of it. But the moment you say that it is a beautiful sunset, you are no longer feeling it; you have come back to your separate, enclosed entity of the ego. Now the mind is speaking. And this is one of the mysteries, that the mind can speak, and knows nothing; and the heart knows everything, and cannot speak. - Osho
The real test of nonviolence lies in its being brought in contact with those who have contempt for it. - Gandhi
Man has to be absolutely empty, only then is the space created for God to descend in him. And we are so full of rubbish, so full of junk; even if God wants to enter he will not find any place inside. Our cups are full... We have to empty the cup completely. - Osho
God, as Truth, has been for me a treasure beyond price. May He be so to every one of us. - Gandhi
Meditation is not something that you do. It is, only when your doer has gone and you are totally relaxed and not doing anything, in a deep state of let-go, rest - there is meditation. Then meditation flowers. It is the flowering of your being. It has nothing to do with becoming. It is not an achievement, it is not an improvement; it is just being that which you already are. - Osho
My imperfections and failures are as much a blessing from God as my successes and my talents and I lay them both at his feet. - Gandhi
The beauty of facing life unprepared is tremendous. Then life has a newness, a youth; then life has a flow and freshness. Then life has so many surprises. And when life has so many surprises boredom never settles in you. - Osho
What kind of victory is it when someone is left defeated? - Gandhi
Truth cannot be defined, although it can certainly be experienced. But experience is not a definition. A definition is made by the mind, experience comes through participating. If somebody asks, "What is a dance?" how can you define it? But you can dance and you can know the inner feel of it. God is the ultimate dance. - Osho
Object to violence because when it appears to do good, the good is only temporary; the evil it does is permanent. - Gandhi
All the Buddhas of all the ages have been telling you a very simple fact: Be -- don't try to become. Within these two words, be and becoming, your whole life is contained. Being is enlightenment, becoming is ignorance. - Osho
Peace, Light and Take Care,
