  1. Osho was laser focussed on the one things that is important. Sadhguru is very knowledgeable and therefore teaches those 1001 things that people care about. Choose your path carefully.
  2. Speak kindly but always carry a big stick. - me coining some Churchill aphorisms
  3. I'd say he is far and away the most advanced mind here and if you don't see that, that speaks a lot about your understanding. He speaks from direct experience and explains simply and elegantly. Never needs to quote another source. He gets emotional but that makes him the more authentic since people are too dim to see the pointers and emotion is a way to convey personal things even more powerfully. He writes a lot but is not on the forum that much if you look at his timeline. That makes his contribution all the more impressive.
  4. Actually you are promoting his very well I would say. What he says accords with my lived experience. But I also agree with you, that this does very deep below the surface and it is near impossible for most to access. You would be a good teacher. I think you have a lot of advanced stuff to communicate and you do that well. You should consider formally writing stuff or starting a podcast / channel.
  5. This is true. However you should still enforce boundaries and purchase insurance to stop the fan being hit with shit. You are not to allow yourself to be in evil's crosshairs for evil to unleash. To do so is to cooperate with that very evil. Get out of dodge before that hurricane hits. Everything is perfect but don't take no shit from no one. Only by keeping oneself strong in mind and body can you be the light you came here to be. Mostly for yourself but others may catch some drift too.
  6. Great job. Definitely something to do again. A top-line cathartic process. Glad you sorted out your tooth. Thanks for sharing this. I need to do another of these soon.
  7. I think therefore I am clueless - gettoefl Maybe I need to enter no think more often specially when the solipsism threads come up
  8. Everything here is a lie. Ego only gives to receive more. Contracts don't matter. I do what benefits me. You be damned. By contrast, mystics will smack you as hard as they can get away with to awaken you. Worlds and egos will not accept that. I am the ruling god here not you.
  9. Problem with enlightenment is it can't be taught, it can only be pointed at and nudged towards. You don't know if they have it and they don't know if you have it. One can only know oneself and the progress that one is making I made big leaps under Osho no doubt
  10. When you limit love by saying I love you, you get this. Limited love is an illusion, an idea, an illness, an imposter. How about going back to the unlimited and love it all. Only then god is real You have been making god up your whole life. God doesn't know limited shit. Why waste time on junk. Ignores but Allows You have at it as long as you wish. You are cool, right?
  11. For real. He pointed them out on the regular. Was especially scathing of Krishnamurti. The only teachers he loved were Buddha and Vivekananda.
  12. Someone did it and showed me it is silly and bizarre to have such thoughts. Every ego wants to die and thinks it's a matter of time and yes it's right. When ego dies however, it is just like one hair falling from my head. Affects me not a jot. Question is did I do what I came here to do which is undo the 'I escaped reality' fantasy. Death is the wild belief that keeps me spinning my wheels here lifetime after lifetime. It is a story I as ego but not I as spirit choose to perpetuate. Spirit tells me all this is silly and mad and unfortunate. I can skip over the useless destination of death and right now enjoy being what I actually am knowingly with ego being nothing more than a single hair on my head which will drop any minute. The beyond, it goes without saying, never misses a beat in my apparent absence and since there is no time, knows I am about to open my eyes and smile back there after that crazy thought I entertained for seemingly a long time but in truth was just a blink of my eye.
  13. Bearing in mind he spoke twice a day 360 days a year, notice that he doesn't use the word "I" bar a few minor instances here and there. Are any of us as enlightened as that? No-I is it and living it reveals it. Self promotion or self profession is an impossibility.
  14. It's the only way I can sell you stuff. You're the best broski, you and you alone.
  15. When you're enlightened, everyone is enlightened. It can't be otherwise. Only the whole is enlightened not a fragment. Seeing a murderer anywhere is a choice not a fact. I made this universe. I came here to declare every murderer innocent and holy. (Which needn't mean I necessarily will release them from prison.) What the eyes show is incorrect until it gets corrected thus. Mind can't do this however or if it tries to, that is called faking it. You don't think your way into enlightenment. I read a little Osho every day for about 5 years and he points all this out.
  16. I would say that meditation is to switch off the one I think I am and to drop all the thoughts about benefits and feelings. Ego is the one who says, what's in it for me. The harder it is the better. Because the ego is the one who says, this is hard. Thus I am quelling my ego when it is hard. Just sit and simply forget. There is no method. There is no progress. There is no expectation. There is no goal. I know I am not a body-mind. I will sit with what I am. It reveals itself. It cannot be explained or described. I am that. Meditation as described above may be helpful initially. If my senses can perceive it, that needs to be dropped because that's not it. Everything that my eyes ears nose mouth and hands reveal to me is deception. The truth can be experienced and known. This is why I meditate.
  17. Not for me. He is a low conscious sap. Helpful is to look at someone and see the absolute
  18. My litmus test is could he help me go all the way My answer is an unqualified yes Although I agree that he is definitely long winded and his anecdotes and jokes are nauseating and cringe He wants enlightenment to a full time pursuit and this is overkill and in fact unhelpful He can be a drug if not careful
  19. You wanted it to happen You set it up since the beginning It may be ok for it to happen or maybe it no longer needed Forgive your fractured selves, extend an olive branch and see them as unadulterated love for they are clueless what they are doing Ego will resist such a radical thought system but someone like a Jesus saw the face of Christ in everyone and loved them no matter
  20. The absolute is the set of all possible loving thoughts See everything as this and you arrive There is not other than the set of all loving thoughts except in my attempt to dream and play and judge The work is, to interpret everything lovingly: Every post on this forum is people giving me a nudge to awaken I am healing them in this way and that is how I am healed back They are inside me the whole time
  21. Could you show me a paragraph from one of his talks when he displays some ego. Seems to me he cared not a jot who listened to him and all the devises he used were to show the listener their attachments, beliefs and conditioning Did you know that he taught without charge 360 days for 35 years for the betterment of humanity: https://www.sannyas.wiki/index.php?title=Osho_Events His entire catalogue is online for everyone to study. Have I or you done anything helpful for humanity?
  22. Hiking is for jollies Get the meditation sorted then the hiking will be next level Retreats are often for jollies too for the one who is not serious Do the first few 10-days retreats alone in your own home Ego will hate this approach
  23. Reality is the whole which can also be the split into the person and the non-person Absolute thinks to itself. I will for this moment see myself as the person, playing for a while with what is not myself , the non-person I can experience fun dreams in this way even though of course such an arbitrary splitting of reality is impossible So this will be an illusion and a game but never mind, I will still imagine and enjoy And here we are, living the dream The question now begged is can I go back to reality but let's save that for now Namely as a person, what pressures help me and what hinder me in realizing what I am
