Rajneesh Quotes

You must desire the fire, and claim your flame!

You cannot use someone else's fire. You can only use your own. And in order to do that, you must first be willing to believe that you have it.

If we are all strong, stable, we can set our sail with any wind in the world that comes along. We make up our own direction. If we are not strong, we are like a leaf in the wind and the world's winds will take us where they wish, not where we wish. So we meditate, every day, regularly, and gain transcendental being in our everyday life and then we are strong. When we are all infused with Being, we need not think which course is right, we just take the one that is automatically. Being is the wind-resister and the sail-setter.

What lies behind us and what lies ahead of us are tiny matters compared to what lives within us.

Look within. Within is the fountain of good, and it will ever bubble up, if thou wilt ever dig.

Only I can change my life. No one can do it for me.

Others can challenge and motivate us, but we must reach down deep into our souls and call forth our God-given intelligence and capabilities. We cannot do this when we depend on the efforts of someone else.

To make real change, you have to be well anchored - not only in the belief that it can be done, but also in some pretty real ways about who you are and what you can do.
