Dear
friends,
In the East people
think that they don’t die completely and they reborn with their essentials
intact.
But this is
not true. You die completely. You, as what you are now, will be dead completely
when you die. Your body dies, your education, your assets, your business, your
status, your pride, your relations, your friends, everything dies, your skills,
your talents, your knowledge all dies.
So what else
is remaining? Or even if something is remaining, what you have to
do with it?
You die
completely, that is the truth.
So accept it
and rise to live it. See the fact, accept the fact. After death whatever is
remaining, is remaining with others only. Others may remember your thoughts,
deeds, feelings, your body, your actions etc., but for you, you are dead
completely. Remember it.
So this is
the fear of everybody and everything. This fear is valid. This fear has a truth
behind it.
So, now,
what is that OSHO talks about, what is that eternity?, what is that deathless?
If you look closely
on OSHO and all real masters sayings, you can see one thing: that they say
there is no death but they add that in the first place there is no birth
itself.
So one, that
is never born never dies also, of course this we understand.
But then
again this one is not you and me and we are worried only about
ourselves.
So death is
true for us.
So what is
spirituality? What OSHO is saying? In what way we are connected with it?
The Root
cause of all human suffering is this death fear.
So OSHO asks
you to see the nature of life. Life is a continuum. It is a flow with many
shapes and many forms. You are one such form. You will die completely but life continues.
So don’t feel yourself as your body and its faculties but feel the life in you.
The energy flow, the qualities of it. Not only that, to feel the life, die
before the death comes, this is what they suggest. Any how you are going to die
completely, and you are in fear of that death, so instead of living with this
fear, die now itself. Die what you are and see if there is any resurrection in
eternity.
Otherwise what
is your life? Fear and fear and fear, some moments of forgetfulness of this
fear, and for that you use all kinds of drugs from good effect to bad effect. Your
whole society is formed in this way. Death is a taboo in the society. You cremate
the person you loved in a remote corner of your town.
So first
understand clearly that you die completely. You have no rebirth, no continuity,
and for that matter nobody has rebirth or continuity. Some BODY, not somebody,
may pick up some thoughts in the air, some feelings in the air but this is not
rebirth.
Second amazing
thing, which is the base of spirituality, is that that you have the potential
to cross over the feelings of the bodily existence and you can touch or taste
the life itself now and here. It can happen to you. But you cannot have
it, because only on your death, this possibility arises. But again you
have the potential to die before the death of the body. This process or
teaching method or creating an inner and outer climate for you to die, is
called meditation technique by OSHO.
Thirdly,
after this death experience, your existence transcends the body. Your existence
becomes of a different quality. This is more like a jump from animal to human, from
limited body feelings to unlimited cosmic feelings. Though your body still
exists, you are not. Body is a mechanism and it will run until it gets
breakdown but you are awakened from the illusion of the body.
So spirituality
is an adventure, a challenge, a quantum jump into the unknown. For that you
have to understand first that you are like a bubble in existence and you die
completely in your death. Moreover death comes for sure and that is the only
certainty in the future of you. This makes you frustrated with this life, fed up
with this life and you are ready to take any risk. Because what is the risk,
you have nothing to lose, anyhow you die completely today or tomorrow. Instead of
cheating yourself that you are a winner in this life and to appear so doing all
kinds of dramas, you get bored. The intelligent always ends up here.
So you try
to open up your potentiality. This is the real spirituality. Here you put yourself
for experimentation. That is why very few people really interested in
spirituality.
People love
lies, people love dreams, people love hypocrisy, people love society approved drugs
like god, power, prestige, fame, medals, honours etc., people who don’t get
these drugs love the other drugs supplied by society like TV, Drama, Chatting,
Gossip etc., and some people love drugs like
gambling, drinks, smoking & other chemical drugs, people love sleep, people love to forget the
fact of death somehow in short.
But if you
die and resurrect, then the living in the body itself will become a creation of
great art without any effort. Great artist is one, who is separate from his
art, who never bothering about his art, the art becomes a child’s play for him.
It is not his real life. He transcends it. But still he creates the art just as
a play, just for the sake of sharing him. This kind of playful life is possible
for humans. This is the vision of OSHO.
So, friends,
realize the death. Suddenly you become courageous, you become adventurous, you
become energetic to live this moment.
Not much
time left. You die completely. So before that transcend you.
Love,
Sidd.
