The whole society is geared for work. It is a workaholic society. It does not want you to learn relaxation, so from the very childhood it puts in your mind anti-relaxation ideas.

I am not telling you to relax the whole day. Do your work, but find some time for yourself, and that can only be found in relaxation.. And you will be surprised that if you can relax for an hour or two hours out of every twenty-four hours, it will give you a deeper insight into yourself. It will change your behavior outwardly – you will become more calm, more quiet. It will change the quality of your work – it will be more artistic and graceful…

Relaxation has miraculous powers… Relaxation can transform you to such beautiful heights – and it is such simple technique… It will bring new light to your eyes, a new freshness to your being, and it will help you to understand what meditation is. It is just the first step outside the door of the temple of meditation. With just deeper and deeper relaxation it becomes meditation..

Total relaxation is the ultimate. That’s the moment when one becomes a buddha. That’s the moment of realization, enlightenment….

Don’t be in a hurry and don’t be in haste. Move as if all eternity is available to you – in fact, it is available to you. We are here from the beginning and we are going to be here to the very end, if there is a beginning and there is an end. In fact, there is no beginning and no end. We have always been here and we will be here always. Forms go on changing, but not the substance, garments go on changing, but not the soul…

My effort here is to help you get rid of all guilt and all fear.. I would like to tell you: there is no hell and no heaven… all that exists is this moment. You can make this moment a hell or a heaven… Hell is when you are all tense, and heaven is when you are all relaxed. Total relaxation is paradise.

– Osho, From Medication To Meditation, chp 6

Consciousness is dynamic. Your state of being is continually generating your consciousness. Your choice and the quality of focus is  creating your state of being.  How you are viewing things has a particular frequency and this determines your state of being. This state of being is like a location, energetically, which has access to certain views and experiences. You can choose this with your focus and by the quality of that attention. A higher quality of attention — one that is more neutral and unconditional — will give you the broadest options for perspective, insight, wisdom, and manifestations that give you the greatest joy.

By being Love, that is by accepting your real nature and offering Love to all in every situation you attract more Love to yourself, and your fears and anxieties dissolve.  When that happens your stress reduces and peace and contentment become normal, and others will seek you out for companionship because your energy feels so good.  That energy is experienced by others as non-judgmental unconditional acceptance, and the more you are able to engage with your true nature, spreading Love unconditionally throughout the world – when you live lovingly your energy field really does affect everyone on the planet – you will find others you know are also changing, becoming more accepting, more peaceful, more trusting.  In fact you will find more and more people starting to identify, possibly without awareness, with who they truly are.

Love lived and demonstrated leads to more Love.  Why?  Because Love is all that exists, and living It causes the cloak under which you have hidden from It to disintegrate, the fog in which you are lost to disperse, allowing the warm and brilliant Light of Love to shine on you without interruption now that the clouds of fear and doubt have been dispersed.

The idea that you need struggle to grow and evolve is based on the idea that you need to earn your worth. What if the true work was simply accepting your innate worthiness, your divine birthright, your truth as an individuated aspect of Source? It is what we call finding your way back Home to yourself, and it is from that sacred space you will recognize you have everything, and are everything, you could ever need, and all that is left to do is to BE. 

Wisdom is as a flower from which the bee its honey makes and the spider poison, each according to its own nature.

—Manly P.Hall

Remember that the past and the future are ‘ideas’ but they do not exist singularly from each other. They are all here in the Ocean, as waves. Each memory and past event, each future desire and thought co exists here. Nothing is linear as we have been taught. We live in a vibrating, fluctuating wave of constant movement. We have been taught to quantify this into time, into events, defining beginnings and ends. When in truth it is endless and we cannot quantify it.

‘the mind can be our prison or our palace. The most exciting garden to explore or the most hostile ground, where nothing new grows except the weeds of yesterday. We are the gardeners. What we make of it, is entirely our own making. What are you seeding in your garden today?‘

The Sun shines everywhere and each flower enjoys. The flower blossoms and its inner beauty are displayed for all to see and admire. This is the way of Nature and the flow of the Life Force of the universe.

Human nature has been hidden from view and controlled by the limitations of our ego/mind. When we look at the world through our ego/mind we see a narrow view of reality and the more we focus, the more narrow our view becomes. Then we become afraid and worry about not getting what we want and start to compete. We become fearful of the delicate flower of our dreams and the tender nature of our heart and try to protect our self. Instead of seeing the support from the universe, our mind conjures up worry that our dreams will never come true. When we close the curtains of our window to the world, even the sunshine cannot get in. Then we feel lonely and inadequate.

It all began from the limited view of our ego/mind and multiplies our fear as we narrow our vision of reality. Open the curtains of perception and let the sun shine into the room of our heart. All fear will disappear and we will feel the support of the sunshine of the universe touching all life everywhere. There is no competition between the flowers. Together they make a beautiful garden. Each flower blossoming in the sun and doing what is natural to do as a beautiful flower so everyone can enjoy their beauty. When our heart is open and the sun shines into our heart, all the Life Force and love power that we need comes to us and our life becomes magnificent.

Waiting is an essential skill; patience is a powerful force. Good timing is an ally of those with inner strength — the kind of strength that allows you to be uncompromisingly honest with yourself, while sticking to the path you have charted. If you persevere with a positive attitude, time weakens even the hardest obstacles. To rush anything, or impatiently force results, stimulates resistance and causes setbacks. At best, you achieve surface changes — the kind that can just as quickly be reversed. Steadfast waiting — while holding to your integrity leads to slow but permanent improvements. In the end, you accomplish something great. Practice patience.
