Is Outer Beauty Just a Reflection of Your Inner?
Osho,
What is the criterion of beauty, and is the appearance of outer beauty always just a reflection of the inner?
“The outer beauty comes from a different source than the inner. The outer beauty comes from your father and mother: their bodies create your body.
The End of Belief and Our Habitually Closed System of Thinking
We live on an amazing speck of rock about four and a half billion years old in a vast universe about ten billion years older. Despite or because of some amazing chance events and near catastrophes, it has taken most of that time for us to emerge as an extraordinary species.
Real Trust Is the Absence of the Duality of Doubt and Trust
Osho,
Could you talk about trust?
Whenever I trust, whatever happens is beautiful; when doubt arises, I am in pain. Just the fact of trusting you, or life, or somebody, is enough to make me feel light, happy.
Why then do I still doubt?
“It is one of the most fundamental questions of life. The question is not only about trust and doubt: the question is rooted in the duality of the mind.
“It is so with love and hate, it is so with body and soul, it is so with this world and the other world.
Emotions Are the Key to Your Transformation
Osho,
Can you talk about the world of emotions?
“Most of the activities in life originate from the world of emotions, not from the world of thoughts. You must also have noticed that you think one thing, and when the time comes you do something else. The reason for this is that there is a fundamental difference between emotions and thinking. You may decide that you will not become angry; you may think that anger is bad, but when anger gets hold of you thinking is left aside and you become angry.
The Liberating Fun of Gibberish and Osho’s No-Mind Meditation
Wild Wild Country, the latest Netflix documentary sensation to hit Americans’ TV screens, opens with an eerie shot of a rural village in Oregon. It’s the 1980s, and we learn that the town has a population of 50 — that is, until a cult arrives and buys a 60,000-acre ranch they grow into a bustling metropolis of followers.

വേദാന്തം: ദീപത്തിന്റെ നിശ്ചലമായി നാളം
എല്ലാംതന്നെ കേവലം സംഭവിച്ചുകൊണ്ടിരിക്കുകയാണെങ്കിൽ, അപ്പോൾ അതിനെല്ലാം എന്തെങ്കിലും പരമമായ ലക്ഷ്യമുണ്ടെന്ന് പറയാൻ കഴിയുമോ? അതോ ജീവിതം ഒരു യാദൃശ്ചികത മാത്രമാണോ? ജീവിതം ഏതോ പരമമായ ലക്ഷ്യത്തിലേക്ക് പരിണമിച്ചുകൊണ്ടിരിക്കുകയാണെന്ന് പറയാൻ കഴിയുമോ? – ജീവിതത്തിൽ തനിക്കഭിമുഖീകരിക്കേണ്ടിവരുന്ന കാര്യങ്ങളെല്ലാംതന്നെ തന്റെ ഭൂതകാലജീവിതത്തിലെ പ്രവൃത്തികളുടെ ഫലമാണ്. അത് സുഖത്തിലായാലും ശരി, ദുഃഖത്തിലായാലും ശരി, അയാൾക്ക് ഒന്നുംതന്നെ ചെയ്യാൻ കഴിയില്ല. എല്ലാത്തരത്തിലുള്ള സൗഭാഗ്യങ്ങളും ദൗർഭാഗ്യത്തിന്റെ ഒരു കലവറയല്ലാതെ മറ്റൊന്നുമല്ല. ഓരോ കൂടിച്ചേരലും വേർപാടിലേക്ക് നയിക്കും.

Civilizational Collapse? – When All Else Fails, Read the Goddamned Osho Manual!
In the first part of this article, “Your Civilization Is Collapsing – And You Still Won’t Listen to Osho! Mmmm?” – we explored how the Osho lens clarifies the root causes of the catastrophic direction our species is taking. As he points out, the impact of today’s systemic cycle of misinformation – and the insidious perpetuation of violence by the current power structures – cannot be remedied by the very structures that created it.
Osho also explains the fundamental misunderstanding that has led to these disastrous turns of events for this species:
Your Civilization Is Collapsing – And You Still Won’t Listen to Osho! Mmmm?
If you are familiar with Osho’s way of seeing how humanity manages to lurch from one catastrophe to another, nothing happening today will surprise you.
If not, you might be baffled by the madness you notice around you.
Osho is not the most published non-fiction author in history for no reason! So, given the lack of a coherent understanding of what is going on from anyone, anywhere, it might be worth listening to his insights on the causes of the current catastrophes.
