In a separation it is the one
who is not really in love
who says the more tender things.

Beyond mind, there is an awareness that is intrinsic,
that is not given to you by the outside, and is not an idea -
and there is no experiment up to now
that has found any center in the brain
which corresponds to awareness.
The whole work of meditation is
to make you aware of all that is "mind"
and disidentify yourself from it.
That very separation is the
greatest revolution that can happen to man.
Now you can do and act on only that
which makes you more joyous, fulfills you,
gives you contentment, makes your life a work of art, a beauty.
But this is possible only if the master in you is awake.
- Osho
The assertion that "all men are created equal"

"My life begins TODAY.
I am like a newborn.
I have what I have today;
I have my fingers, my toes,
some people in my life,
some material and financial state.
Yesterday is only a dream -
perhaps a nightmare,
perhaps a cherished memory,
but only a dream - nothing more.
I will make all decisions and actions based solely
on what I have today as a starting point."
- Jonathan Lockwood Huie
But what a cruel thing is war
to separate and destroy families and friends,
and mar the purest joys and happiness
God has granted us in this world,
to fill our hearts with hatred
instead of love for our neighbors,
and to devastate the fair face of this beautiful world!
- Robert E. Lee

When you are eating, eat totally -
chew totally, taste totally, smell totally.

and remain conscious - and you are meditating.
And then meditation is not separate from life.
- Osho

When you open up to the ultimate,
immediately it pours into you.

you have transcended.

insight of the whole existence.
Now you are no longer separate -
you have found your roots.
- Osho
Looking at a sunset, just for a second
you forget your separateness:
you are the sunset.

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.
- Osho
Music melts all the separate parts of our bodies together.

Only free men can negotiate;
prisoners cannot enter into contracts.
Your freedom and mine cannot be separated.
