all the problems.
The moment life is non problematic, it has significance, it has a glory; something divine in it starts growing. Once problems disappear energy is released, the energy that was involved in the problems, and that energy becomes your growth. That's what we are doing here. We are not concerned with pruning the leaves: our concern is cutting the very root of all problems.
OSHO (TO SATPRIYA): One word having these two dimensions together is immensely significant, it says many things. One: that truth is not outside you, it is your innermost core, your being, the very ground of your being. It says that truth cannot be a conclusion of thought, it is a realization of your existence. In fact to ask" What is truth?" is wrong. The right question is "Who am I?" By knowing oneself one knows the truth. That's the beauty of the word "sat": it is an indication towards meditation. It says "Look within": you already have it! It has not to be searched for and sought anywhere else, it is in you, herenow. Even to say it is in you is not right, just approximately right -- it is you. The moment you are left unclouded by thoughts and desires, emotions and feelings, when there is not a wave in your consciousness, when the lake of consciousness is absolutely quiet, you arrive at it. Suddenly it explodes like light inside you, a sudden enlightenment that "I am it." One can say "I am God!" -- it is the same: God, truth, being.
Priya means beloved. One has to become a lover of existence. It is not an aggressive quest, it is a love affair. It is not a logical concern but a loving approach. Existence reveals its secrets only to lovers; to unloving hearts existence is unavailable. The key to open the doors of existence is love. Love existence and you will be surprised that existence starts loving you, because whatsoever we give to existence comes back a thousandfold. Become a lover and you will find you have become a beloved.
So these two things are implied in your name: first is meditation -- go in, because it is there; second is love -- love more and more, become love itself because that which is in is also out, that which is within is also without.
