Life belongs only to those who are utterly unafraid to accept whatsoever it brings. Take it as a gift, be thankful, enjoy it, celebrate it, and when some other gift comes enjoy that too. Sometimes you may not be even able to understand that this is a gift,  sometimes it looks like a curse, but life never gives anything except gifts.  It is your misunderstanding. Life always gives you blessings; how can it curse you?  We belong to it, we are part of it: in being cursed, life will be cursed.  It is impossible for life to curse anybody, it always comes as a blessing, but our understandings are tiny, our expectations are many,  And if it goes against our expectations we think it is a curse.  But all your expectations are not good for you, so who knows?

Not only that,  the story says that when Pontius Pilate asked the question, "What is truth?" he did not  wait to listen for the answer. He left the room and went away. This is very strange.  Pontius Pilate also thinks that there cannot be an answer fo...

OSHO ON THE THIRD EYE. OSHO: With the third eye you become capable of seeing things which are there, but which cannot be seen with ordinary eyes. All the methods about looking affect the third eye, because looking means a certain energy moving outward from you toward the world. If blocked, if suddenly blocked, the energy will find another path, and the third eye is just near. In Tibet there were even surgical operations for the third eye. Sometimes it happens that your third eye is blocked because you have not used it for millennia. If the third eye is blocked and you stop your eyes, you will feel a certain uneasiness because the energy is there and there is no path where to move. In Tibet they devised certain operations to have the passage cleared. This can be done. And if it is not done, then many things can happen. Just two or three days before, one sannyasin – she is here – came to me. She said, “There is a very hot sensation at the third eye.” And not only was there the sensation,...
