DEATH (OSHO Meditation Minutes)

OSHO International Foundation - http://www.osho.com

DEATH:

Death is already happening. Whether you face it or not, whether you look at it or not, it is already there. It is just like breathing. With each inhalation you are born; with each exhalation you die. A person who is really living is not in any way afraid of death. If you are living rightly you are finished with death, you are already too grateful, fulfilled. But if you have not lived, then the constant worry continues, 'I have not lived yet and death is coming. And death will stop all; with death there will be no future.' So one becomes apprehensive, afraid, and tries to avoid death. In trying to avoid death, one goes on missing life. Forget about that avoidance. Live life. In living life, death is avoided. In living life, you become so fulfilled that if this very moment death comes and the future stops, you will be ready. You will be happily ready. You have lived your life; you have delighted in existence; you have celebrated it; you are contented. There is no complaint, no grumbling; you don't have any grudge. You welcome death. And unless you can welcome death, one thing is certain -- you have not lived.

Osho reminds us that death is the ONLY CERTAIN phenomenon in life. Life is always a wondrous mystery, so enjoy, knowing that we are always flowing joyously towards the ocean.

@Salocin27 no, "denied a right to live" pay attention to the words! If he wanted to say killed he would have said so. Duh!

[Salocin27]

"denied a right to live" -> killed ?

call me crazy, but the antelope tries to run away and screams as its guts are being ripped out... i dont think it is necessarily like "this is great!" lol

Saints like Osho sir don't have death because they know the truth, that they aren't the body but the spirit.
