Everyone who came near Osho, realized many times that Osho never let anyone stay and settle anywhere, at any stage in his or her spiritual journey. Wherever you hide, He reached there to shake and wake you lovingly from your sleep. He was capable of shaking thousands of sleepy people simultaneously. In all His discourses, He shook each and everyone in the audience individually. He went on inspiring us from death to eternal life. In His presence, there remained no way for the mind to survive.
In April 1971, during the meditation camp at Mount Abu, Osho spoke on ‘Ishavasya Upnishad’. He explains, “There are two kinds of people in the world. One: self-destructive, the other: self-creative. And self-creative people are rare-one in lacs. Mostly people are self-destructive. But we are not aware of it.”
Osho explained further, ‘Whatever we do or live, if it takes us away from our soul, if it helps the self to sleep, then we are self-destructive. And if it is to awaken us then we are self creative. However, the difficulty becomes multiple when self-destructive people are in an illusion of being self-creative. And we all carry such illusions.”
As Osho said, immediately I said to myself, “Bhagwan, I clearly accept that I am self destructive.”
Osho responded immediately, “But we are dead to such an extent that we do not even get hurt. We are such cowards that we console ourselves and accept to be self-destructive. How long shall we remain dead? Infinite lives have passed like this.”
And I realized that He leaves no space for us to hide.
