moment is blessed because only this moment
can blossom into a flower in you,
because only this moment can bring you
closer to existence's very heartbeat.
Don't be afraid and don't hold on to anything.
Just take the jump. It is your own inner being.
To make it deeper, Nivedano ...
(Drumbeat)
Relax, let go, just be dead.
Leave the body out, leave the mind out
and go beyond. This is your very being,
and your being is the being of the universe.
Relax into it, rejoice in it,
feel the tremendous silence. In such silence,
this moment becomes eternity itself.
You can keep this experience of silence
all through the day, like an undercurrent;
then your every act will reflect your buddha nature.
Essentially, you are a buddha.
In the seed you are a buddha,
but in the seed you are imprisoned.
Let the seed be broken, let it be shattered into the soil
so that roses can start growing within you.
A man of consciousness becomes a garden of roses.
This is the significance of Gautam Buddha
and this is the reason why Bodhidharma
went to China.
This is the reason why you are here,
searching, seeking for that which you already have.
But it is hidden deep and you have never dared
to go deep into it.
The master can only help to take the fear away
and push you deeper into your own being.
Nivedano ...
(Drumbeat)
Come back and sit for a few moments like a buddha.
In this insane world you are very fortunate
and blessed that you are learning a language
that mankind has completely forgotten.
Okay, Maneesha?
Yes, Osho.
Can we celebrate the gathering of thousands of
buddhas here?
Yes, Osho.
