by anything else.
When you are transparent, when you are mirror-like, the unheard is heard and the unseen is seen. The unknown becomes known.
The positive and healthy person also creates, but his creativity is very subtle. The unhealthy and ill person creates; his creativity is very gross, but it is like a dagger -- it hurts and it makes people aware that something is happening. A flower simply flowers and withers away by the evening -- unknown, unheard; a flower is not like a knife. Unless you are really looking for it, you will not look at it. Unless you are really looking for it, you may bypass it. A flower is there, but is not aggressive -- a knife is aggressive. Whether you are looking for it or not, it will force you to look at it. That's why negativity becomes a foundation for the ego so much.
Simply drop it, and don't ask how, because the 'how' is a trick. What I am saying is that you have no problem. So just start, from this very moment, to live without problems -- and see. Just from this very moment start living without any problems, and when problems come, simply remember that Osho says, 'There are no problems.' Again you may be getting into an old habit, just an old habit. Just remember it, and within a few days you will become aware that there are no problems; they were all created.
You go on playing with your old wounds so that they don't heal. Stop it! And just be ordinary! There is no point in being anything else. God is very ordinary -- that may be the reason why nothing is heard about Him, anywhere. He does not make even a ripple. He is simply here. He never interferes, never trespasses. He never takes any initiative. He is simply there.
Just be very ordinary. Drop this image that you carry with you. Start enjoying. Don't wait to learn how to en joy. When people are dancing, dance. When people are singing, sing. Without any preparation, start celebrating. If you ask for preparation, if you ask for 'how', you will never celebrate. There is no need -- everything is ready. From this very moment, try for three weeks without any 'how' -- just celebrate, enjoy. It will be difficult because it will go against the grain.
