"Whenever a Buddha happens in the world, the whole Existence finds a
center there. Then all the rivers fall in him, and all the mountains
bow down to him, and all the stars move around him. Whenever there is
an Enlightened man, the whole Existence converges... on his being. He
becomes the center." Osho is our Center - Oshobuddha Meditation Center.
And my effort is not only to create the Buddhafield here but to create
small oases all over the world.
I would not like to confine this tremendous possibility only to this
small commune. This commune will be the source, but it will have
branches all over the world. It will be the root, but it is going to
become a big tree.
It is going to reach every country; every potential person it is going
to reach. We will create small oases; we have started creating small
communes, ashrams, centers, all over the world.
Wherever my sannyasins meet, my presence will be felt. Wherever my
sannyasins celebrate, my message is realized, because celebration is my
message.
Rejoice! Sing! Dance! And dance so totally that your egos melt and
disappear. Dance so totally that the dancer is no more there, but only
the dance remains. Then you will find me wherever you are.
And it has to be now a known and recognized fact that my buddhafield is
not going to be confined to the small place where I will be living with
a few thousand sannyasins. All the small communes, ashrams, centers all
over the world will become little buddhafields.
We have to fill the whole earth with buddhafields! We have to create a
chain of buddhafields. And it can be done: if you can take some of my
joy and some of my love and some of my laughter with you wherever you
go, you will be taking the fragrance of the buddhafield there. You will
be taking seeds...
One seed is enough to transform the whole earth into a garden.
THE ONLY WAY
All search is futile. Search is a by-product of the mind. To be in a state of non-search is the great moment of transformation.
There is no shortcut
ONE thing has to be remembered about meditation: it is a long journey and there is no shortcut. Anyone who says there is a shortcut is befooling you.
It is a long journey because the change is very deep and is achieved after many lives – many lives of routine habits, thinking, desiring. And the mind structure; that you have to drop through meditation. In fact it is almost impossible – but it happens.
A man becoming a meditator is the greatest responsibility in the world. It is not easy. It cannot be instant. So from the beginning never start expecting too much and then you will never be frustrated. You will always be happy because things will grow very slowly.
Meditation is not a seasonal flower which within six weeks is there. It is a very very big tree. It needs time to spread its roots.
All the meditations that we are doing here are just preparations for that moment. They are not real meditations but just preparations so that one day you can simply sit, doing nothing, desiring nothing.
When meditation flowers there is simply nobody to take note of it, nobody to give it recognition, nobody to say ‘Yes, this has happened’. The moment you say ‘Yes, it has happened,’ it is lost already.
When there really is meditation, a silence pervades; without any sounds a bliss throbs; without any boundaries, there is a harmony. But there is nobody to take note.
When your efforts drop, suddenly meditation is there – the benediction of it, the blessedness of it, the glory of it. It is there like a presence – luminous surrounding you and surrounding everything. It fills the whole earth and the whole sky. That meditation cannot be created by human effort; human effort is too limited. That blessedness is so infinite, you cannot manipulate it. It can happen only when you are in a tremendous surrender. When you are not there, only then can it happen. When you are a no-self, no desire, not going anywhere; when you are just herenow, not doing anything in particular, just being – it happens. And it comes in waves and the waves become tidal. It comes like a storm and takes you away into a totally new reality.
Love knows no distance. You can be thousands of miles away-IF YOUR HEART IS FULL OF LOVE, IF YOUR HEART REMEMBERS ME, YOU ARE AS CLOSE AS ANYBODY CAN BE.
My commune is going to spread all over the Earth. Wherever you will see a sannyasin, my commune exists there. Wherever a sannyasin remembers me, I am present to him, far more deeply than I can be physically present--because I AM NO MORE IN MY BODY, just somehow hanging around the body. I am no more the body. If you love me you will know that I am something totally different from the body; IT IS A NON-PHYSICAL PHENOMENON.
And you can be in contact wherever you are. The moment you will close your eyes you will find me inside you. The Master becomes part of the disciple. Slowly slowly the Master is no more outside--he is more and more inside.
And it has started happening--the process is triggered. And it is a process which cannot be stopped.OSHO
