Sins are Punishments !

Always remember: Life is never Unjust.

If it looks unjust then you must have done something wrong.

Somewhere you must have gone beyond the balance; then life seems to be unjust.

Otherwise life Is never unjust.

And whenever you feel the unjustice it is better to look at yourself; you have done something wrong and you have been punished.

In fact, people have been thinking for millennia that sins are punished, but I say to you that sins are not punished.

Sins are the punishment.

When You say sins are punished you have time to wait.

Maybe they will be punished in the next life –who bothers?

We will see in the next life.

You can postpone.

But I say to you that sins are the Punishment; they are not punished somewhere in the future.

Sins carry their punishment in themselves.

Punishment is intrinsic to every sin.

It is not a result-somewhere in the future. It is not that you sow today and you reap tomorrow – No.

There is no time gap.

You sin and immediately you are punished, immediately the punishment has started.

Here you sin and here immediately the punishment starts!

You feel ugly and you feel sad and you feel guilty,and a turmoil and a chaos arise inside and you are unhappy and in hell.

Hell is not somewhere in-the future, neither is heaven.

Each act carries its own heaven or hell.

Remain balanced and you are in heaven; become unbalanced and a hell is created.

Nobody else Is creating it for you.

CHAPTER 5. ON THE DANGER OF OVERWEENING SUCCESS

Tao: The Three Treasures, Vol 1

Man is a Crowd !

Someone was here just a few days ago, and he said to me, ”I am in love with someone, and I want to marry her.”

I looked into his eyes deeply for a few minutes without saying anything.

He became restless and he said, ”Why are you looking at me?

I feel so awkward.” I continued looking.

He said,”Do you think that my love is false?”

I didn’t say anything, I just continued looking. He said, ”Why do You feel that this marriage is not going to be good?”

He said by himself, ”I had not really thought it Over very much, and that is why I have come to you.

Really, I do not know whether I am in love or not.”I had not said a single word.

I was just looking into his eyes. But he became restless, and things Which were inside began to come up, to bubble up.

You are not certain, you cannot be certain about anything; neither about your love, nor about your Hate, nor about your friendships.

There is nothing which you can be certain about because you Have no center.

Without a center there is no certainty. All your feelings of certainty are false and Momentary.

One moment you will feel that you are certain, but the next moment the certainty will Have gone because in each moment you have a different center.

You do not have a permanent Center, a crystallized center.

Each moment is an atomic center, so each moment has its own self.

George Gurdjieff used to say that man is a crowd.

Personality is just a deception because you are Not a person, you are many persons.

So when one person speaks in you, that is a momentary Center.

The next moment there is another. With every moment, with every atomic situation, you Feel certain, and you never become aware that you are just a flux – many waves without any center.

Then in the end you will feel that life has been just a Wastage.

It is Bound to Be.

There is just A wastage, just a wandering – Purposeless, Meaningless.

Carbon Copy!

BELOVED OSHO,
WHAT IS WRONG, IN IMITATING THE GREAT IDEALS TAUGHT DOWN THE CENTURIES?

It is not a question of great ideals or petty ideals, it is a question of imitating.

What you imitate is immaterial; the important thing is that you imitate.

If you imitate you become a carbon copy. If you imitate you have betrayed your authentic being.

If you imitate you are no more your being, you are no more your soul, you are no more yourself.

You have committed suicide – and this suicide is far More suicidal than when you destroy your physical body.

This is destroying your very psychology.

Imitation means you will not live according to your own spontaneity, you will live according to somebody else as your image; you will follow somebody else’s character, behavior, way of life.

You will have to impose.

What will you do if you want to follow Christ; if you want to imitate Christ,what will you do?

You will act like Christ!
What else can you do?
It will be a drama, it will not be areal, true life.

What will you do if you want to become a Buddha? You can take a begging bowl, you can use thesame type of clothes he used, you can even walk like him – these are simple things, they can be learned – but you will be just a showpiece, not a Buddha.

You will be just doing it on the surface, butyou will remain the same deep down, deep behind it.

Your reality will not be affected by it; it will Be just a painted face, a mask, a personality. It will not touch your essence.

I am against all kinds of imitation because I respect the individual.

Learn from everywhere.
Learn From Jesus, learn from Buddha – they have something great to share with you.

Participate in that sharing, but never imitate.

You are here with me –
Never Imitate Me!

Listen to me, understand me, feel me, feel my love for you, drink this presence that is available to you, participate in this silence, but don’t imitate.

There is no need for you to wear the same clothes that I wear or to eat the same food. There is no need to follow my lifestyle.

But the idea has become very deeply planted in you.

You have been told again and again and Conditioned for it.

Nobody has ever told you to be Yourself.

Everybody was giving you an example:”Be like that. Be like Jesus, be like Buddha, be like Mahavira” – as if your whole purpose here is just to act somebody else’s life and not to live your own; as if God has not given you a first-hand life but only a second-hand life.

This is disrespectful to yourself and this is disrespectful to God too.

God has given you a life to be lived, and lived spontaneously, with no pattern.

Don’t become a slave and don’t become an imitator.

Love yourself, respect yourself, and try to live your life the way you Feel it.

And even if you are a failure you will be contented.

And imitating somebody else, even if you succeed, you will remain empty inside, filled with straw and nothing else.

Alas!

The person who will succeed in imitating Christ will be the person who has completely destroyed his Possibility of growing.

He has been playing, he has not been living. And howsoever intelligently youtry to imitate, imitation is unintelligent.

Intelligence never tries to imitate.

By imitating somebody, whatsoever you do will miss the point somewhere or other.

At one stage or another stage you will miss the point, because imitation means you have already accepted living a Stupid Life.

Bullish Scenario !

Quality of Prayer !

Once Mohammed asked a young man to go with him to pray.

The young man could not avoid it,
because Mohammed had asked him – just as you cannot avoid something if I ask you to do it!

In the morning he went with Mohammed. Mohammed stood there and prayed, and the young man also stood and began to murmur something.

He could only murmur.
Mohammed became very uneasy and thought, ”I made a mistake in bringing this man here.

” But now there was no way out of it. After praying, they left. It was morning and people were still in their beds.

The young man said to Mohammed, ”Sir, what will happen to these people? Though this is the time
for prayer they are still in their beds. What do you think of them? Will they go to hell?”

Mohammed replied, ”I do not know where they will go, but I shall have to go back to the mosque.”

The man asked, ”What has happened to you?”
Mohammed said, ”My first prayer has become useless –

I have harmed you. Before offering prayers this morning at least you were humble; you did not consider these people sinful.

This is another harm done.
Please pardon me, and do not come to the mosque again.

Now I must go back again to pray, because now my first prayer is useless.

I have harmed you by bringing you to the mosque because now you have become more egoistic and vain.

The ego should be shattered by prayers,but yours has become stronger!”

Have you seen how proudly a man walks with a saffron mark and sandal paste on his forehead?

He behaves as if God has given him a special license.

Such people think they are God’s relatives,God’s family, God’s chosen ones. Now they will not rest content until they have condemned the
whole world to hell.

Man must be considered a very strange animal when he can become full of ego even through prayer.

There is no limit to his cunningness.

The essential quality of prayer is the abandonment, the death of the Ego.

CHAPTER 19. TRANSFORMATION IS THE TEST
The Heartbeat of the Absolute

HOW CAN I STOP WANTING TO BE SPECIAL?

Because you ARE special, and there is no need to be special. You ARE special, you ARE unique - God never creates anything less than that.

Everyone is unique, utterly unique. There has been no person like you before, and there will NEVER be a person like you again. God has taken this form for the first time and the last time, so there is no need to try to become special, you already are. If you are trying to be special you will become ordinary. Your very effort is rooted in misunderstanding. It will create confusion, because when you try to become special you have taken one thing tor granted - that you are not special. You have become ordinary already. You have missed the point.

Now, once you have taken it for granted that you are ordinary, how can you become special? You will try this way and that, and you will remain ordinary, because your base, your foundation is wrong. Yes, you can go to the dressmaker and can find more sophisticated dresses, you can have your hair style done again, you can use cosmetics; you can learn a few things and become more knowledgeable, you can paint and start thinking that you are a painter; you can do a few things, you can become famous or notorious, but deep down you will know that you are ordinary. All these things are on the outside. How can you transform your ordinary soul into an extraordinary soul? There is no way.

And God has not given any way because he never makes ordinary souls, so he could not think about your problem. He HAS given you a special, extraordinary soul. He has never given it to anybody.

This is just made for you.
. There is no need to get it, it is already there - recognise it. Go into your self and feel it. Nobody's thumb print is like yours - not even the thumb print. Nobody's eyes are like yours; nobody's sound is like yours; nobody's flavour is like yours. You are absolutely exceptional. There is not a double of you anywhere. Even two twins are different - howsoever alike they look, they are different. They go different ways, they grow different ways; they attain to different kinds of individualities.

This recognition is needed.
