OSHO on WISDOM and PHILOSOPHY
Philosophy, the very word, means love for wisdom, and they have nothing to do with wisdom at all.Wisdom happens only through meditation; it never happens by collecting information. It happens by going through a transformation. Wisdom is the flowering of your consciousness, the opening of the one-thousand-petaled lotus of your being. It is the release of your fragrance, the release of the imprisoned splendor.Real philosophy has nothing to do with thinking; on the contrary it has everything to do with transcending thinking, going beyond and beyond thinking, going beyond mind, reaching to the pure space of no-mind. Out of that space something flowers in you. You can call it Christ-consciousness, Buddhahood, or whatsoever you like. That is true philosophy.

Do you agree with the above?
ReplyDeleteYes, i do. Meditation helps me in understanding and loving people. While logics has helped in analysis only for right and wrong action. I love and reason with logic to fight all traditions and barriers created by society and religion.
ReplyDeleteIf a living being exist, that is truth. Life is more important than any idea, nation or isms. Peak of philosophy is Nietzsche... while peak of meditation is Buddha or Lao Tzu.
Mind is comparative in nature and plan for future and lives in the memories of the past. To live in present with loving all is right course.And to exist without any effort is to live; Rest all relations are bogus. If I am not happy with my self, how could I love others ?
