Bhagwan Shree RajneeshThinkers

Meditation is a flower and compassion is its fragrance.

Meditation is a nameless experience, tremendously beautiful, ecstatic, utterly silent, but it gives you the taste of eternity, of timelessness, of something beyond death.

Meditation is a process of getting rid of the whole past, of getting rid of all diseases, of getting rid of all the pus that has gathered in oneself.

Meditation is a silent heart, a peaceful mind which can make life more lovable, more livable.

Meditation is about simply standing aloof and just seeing the mind disappearing, like a cloud on a faraway horizon, leaving the sky clean and pure.

Meditation is about the idea that the mind is constantly talking and if the inner talk can drop even for a single moment you will be able to have a glimpse of no-mind.

Meditation is all about being alone and being drunk with one's own aloneness.

Meditation is just a courage to be silent and alone.

Meditation is a strategy to take away your personality, your thoughts, your mind, your identity with the body, and leave you absolutely alone inside, just a living fire.

Meditation is letting the thoughts disappear, the hopes disappear, the desires disappear such that the eyes become perfect mirrors.

Meditation is neither of the body nor of the mind, but belongs to the third within you, your being.

Meditation is not a state of being unconscious, but one of being more conscious than ever.

Meditation is not growth of the ego, it is death of the ego.

Meditation is not just being silent, it also has to be creative. And when a poetry comes out of your inner silences, or a painting, it has a flavor which is not of this world.

Meditation is nothing but coming to terms with one's own inner emptiness: recognizing it, not escaping... living through it, not escaping... being through it, not escaping. Then suddenly the emptiness becomes the fullness of life.

Meditation is simply a discipline that makes one capable of being aloof and detached from one's mind, so even if one's mind (which is only a machine) is going crazy one is just witnessing it (because the self is not a machine).

Meditation is simply a strange surgical method which cuts one away from all that is not one's own and saves only that which is one's authentic being.

Meditation is simply to watch the constant traffic of thoughts of the mind, the mind which is always rush hour, day in, day out.

Meditation does not take you to some new world... it only introduces you to the world where you have been for lives upon lives.
