A Declaration of Love
« There are many things that could
be said about this phrase. Humans are so used to declaring their love, without
being aware that when they do so there is an element of self-interest and
selfishness that creeps in. They want to attract someone, and they write or
speak to the person as poetically as they can, choosing the right gestures,
words and tone of voice, in the hope that the person they have chosen will be
touched, charmed and delighted and will eventually be won over. And from then
on, their loved one must understand that they have been ‘reserved’ and that no
one else really has the right to approach them any more. So what really drives
humans is an instinct of possessiveness but, above all, a lack of faith in the
power of love. Since they do not know the true love that works wonders, they
rush to express it in other, concrete ways – in what they say and write, in the
gestures they make – with the aim of imprisoning the one they love. And if they
claim that it’s the strength of their feelings that makes them act in that way,
they are then really admitting their own weakness. Those who truly love do not
express it; it is not necessary, for the love is felt – it radiates out.
The only means of attracting love that we have the right to
use is light – it is also the only truly effective one. Send gifts of spiritual
light to the person you love and want to be loved by, surround them with
colours, in the knowledge that light and colours are living entities. When
their soul senses the presence of these benevolent entities, it will be
grateful to you, and little by little it will open up to you. »

You Are Greatly Blessed
"You are feeling tired, full of tears. You have been
struggling hard to be what you think you should be in order to get what you
think you need. These are the ways of the will: you have to become this, you
have to become that, you have to get this, you have to get that. But you are
fortunate, greatly blessed that you became tired and you gave up trying; you
gave up the will to succeed; you dropped the hardship you were imposing upon
yourself.
In this giving up... the gap,” – no will, no way, no you,
just the gap. And, “the beauty, the unknown... fears meet trust. Osho, could it
be that this river is flowing towards life, towards you, towards the ocean?”
Deva Leena, there is no question, because every river is moving towards the
ocean. It is only the man who gets frozen, and then the flow stops.... If you
melt in trust, the river starts flowing again. And it has never been the case
that any river has forgotten the path and has not reached the ocean.
But remember the gap. And remember Chuang Tzu’s statement,
“Easy is right and right is easy.”
And when you forget both, what is right and what is easy,
you have arrived at the ocean.

Spiritual Independence
Standing on the bare ground, -
my head bathed by the blithe
air,
and uplifted into infinite space, -
all mean egotism vanishes.
I become a
transparent eye-ball;
I am nothing; I see all;
the currents of the Universal
Being
circulate through me;
I am part or particle of God."
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson ~
