And what to do when they want to go in opposite directions?<\/p>\n<p>Osho: Swami Anutosh Pradip, your question is hilarious \u2013 to say the least! Let them go on their way. Why should you be worried? The mind is going in one direction; the heart is going in another direction. It is none of your business to interfere. Simply remain a witness and see where these fellows are going. Not understanding the secret of awareness is the cause of your problem.<\/p>\n<p>You are neither the heart nor the mind. You are a pure consciousness behind them. And unless you get identified they cannot go anywhere; they don\u2019t have their own energy. You ask me, \u201dIs it always good to follow the heart?\u201d and I have been teaching you that your heart, your body, your mind, should follow you. This is how we go on misunderstanding. You are not to be a follower of any; you are simply to be a witness.<\/p>\n<p>Witnessing the mind moving in one direction and the heart in another is a great experience. Experience that you are neither of them. You can remain above and they cannot move very far. They need each other\u2019s support and finally they need energy from you, because you are life, they are only instruments. Your question is just like this: my left hand wants to follow this side, my right hand wants to follow this side \u2013 what am I supposed to do? Of course, to follow the right is always good. Right is right and left is wrong!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mp-row-fluid motopress-row mpce-dsbl-margin-left mpce-dsbl-margin-right\">\n<div class=\"motopress-clmn mp-span12 mpce-dsbl-margin-left mpce-dsbl-margin-right\">\n<div class=\"motopress-image-obj motopress-text-align-left\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/guruquote.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/02\/images-1.jpg?fit=254%2C198&ssl=1\" title=\"osho quotes\" alt=\"The mind is not your reality; it is a false interpretation.

There is no kingdom, but he is worried. - Osho\" class=\"motopress-image-obj-basic mpce-dsbl-margin-left mpce-dsbl-margin-right mpce-dsbl-margin-top mpce-dsbl-margin-bottom\" \/><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"mp-row-fluid motopress-row mpce-dsbl-margin-left mpce-dsbl-margin-right\">\n<div class=\"motopress-clmn mp-span12  mpce-dsbl-margin-left mpce-dsbl-margin-right\">\n<div class=\"motopress-text-obj\">\n<p>Not to follow is the secret of freedom, and once your heart and your mind know that you are not a man who is going to follow, they will stop quarreling, they will stop moving, because they don\u2019t have any energy. The energy comes from you and it comes because you get identified with them, but every identification is wrong. You remind me of Ruthie Finkelstein who has been having therapy for some time without finding much improvement in her generally depressed and confused state.<\/p>\n<p>Finally she tells her therapist that she is going away for a few weeks for a holiday in Greece. Some time later the shrink receives a postcard from Ruthie which says, \u201dHaving a lovely time, but WHY?\u201d You cannot even have a lovely time without inquiring why \u2013 and that destroys your whole joy. The questions are a disturbance. No question is of any importance.<\/p>\n<p>Just to be silent and watch what goes on around in you \u2013 in the mind, in the heart \u2013 and remain aloof, will not only solve this question, it will solve all your questions. But mind loves to ask! You are saying you feel very happy following the heart and you know it is always good&#8230; Who told you? The heart has also committed as many crimes as the mind.<\/p>\n<p>When a Mohammedan destroys the statue of a Gautam Buddha, do you think he is doing it from the mind? It is his heart. When he forces somebody on the point of the sword to change his religion and become a Mohammedan, do you think he is following his mind? He is following his heart.<\/p>\n<p>The heart has its own conditionings which go deeper than the conditionings of the mind. The heart has always been praised for the simple reason that it gets no chance \u2013 the mind goes on playing the whole game and society prepares you not to listen to the heart.<\/p>\n<p>But the Christians who were killing Mohammedans, and the Mohammedans who were killing Christians \u2013 and they are still doing that \u2013 not for a moment does a doubt arise that what they are doing is absolutely inhuman and cannot be religious. If it was done by the mind the question would have arisen, but because it is done by the heart, the heart does not know questioning.<\/p>\n<p>They feel with absolute certainty that if a man is killed in a crusade which they call jihad, then that man has already reached to paradise. And according to the number of people you kill, the more certain becomes your paradise. These are not mind things. They have entered the heart, slowly, slowly sinking down through the centuries.<\/p>\n<p>Just one difference is that the mind always questions if what you are doing is right or wrong. The heart never questions. That\u2019s why all the religions want you to surrender, to be faithful, to believe. These are the qualities which enter into the heart.I don\u2019t teach the mind. For that there are thousands of universities.<\/p>\n<p>I don\u2019t teach the heart because I know the heart can do things more cruelly than the mind. The mind at least hesitates; the heart believes totally. I teach you awareness of your being beyond both the heart and the mind. I say unto you, disidentify yourself and they will forget going this way or that way.<\/p>\n<p>And for the first time you will be the master and they will simply be servants. You can order them and they will have to follow, because without your order they cannot get any nourishment. Anutosh Pradip, as far as your problem is concerned, let both of them go wherever they want. Simply remain centered \u2013 above, alert, not being dragged by them and not being influenced by them.<\/p>\n<p>Then your purity of awareness will lead you to the cosmic purity of existence. That is the only way of merging with the whole. All else is just an utterly futile exercise. Your silence will take you to the right path. Neither does your mind know silence nor your heart. Your consciousness will take you in the right direction.<\/p>\n<p>Neither does your mind know how to be conscious nor your heart. They are both fast asleep and whatever they do is going to prove stupid and dangerous to yourself and others. If all the crimes that have been committed in the world are counted, then you will be surprised that all the religions are the fundamental causes of those crimes. They teach love and they practice hate.<\/p>\n<p>They teach oneness and they practice discrimination. The religious history of man is so mean, so ugly, that to be part of any religion is to prove that you are retarded, that you don\u2019t know what these religions have done.<\/p>\n<p>Old Sam Finkelstein arrives from Russia to visit his relatives in America. On his way to Texas he sits down in a train between two rednecks. He nods in a friendly way but the rednecks sit in stony silence. Old Sam notices an American newspaper lying on the seat and picks it up.<\/p>\n<p>Having taken classes in English for the past few months, he is able to read most of the page, but all of a sudden he turns to the redneck on his right and says in a thick Russian accent, \u201dYou look like an intelligent man. Would you be kind enough to tell me what this word is?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The redneck winks at his friend and without looking at the paper says, \u201dThat word is \u2018syphilis\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Old Sam thanks him and reads on. A few minutes later he turns to the other redneck and says, \u201dYou are obviously a man of education. Would you kindly tell me what this word is?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The redneck smirks, winks at his friend and ignoring the newspaper says, \u201dThat word is \u2018gonorrhea\u2019.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201dSyphilis and gonorrhea?\u201d cries old Sam. \u201dAh, my God \u2013 that poor Ronald Reagan!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t take any problem, any question seriously. Your taking them seriously makes them important and forces you to find the solution. Whenever a question arises in you, just be silent and watch the arising of the question. Watch how it becomes more condensed, watch how it becomes more clear \u2013 but go on watching. And you will be surprised that just as you are simply watching and not getting involved, it starts evaporating. Soon there is tremendous silence left behind it, and this silence is the answer!<\/p>\n<p>But what do people do? A question arises in their minds \u2013 and there are thousands of questions; you will need millions of lives to find the answers for all of them. Still you will remain ignorant, knowledgeably ignorant. And because of the question you start asking others&#8230; perhaps somebody else knows the answer \u2013 that makes you a beggar. The knowledge that you get from others is borrowed; it is not going to help you at all.<\/p>\n<p>One thing and only one thing helps. Watch the question and don\u2019t be dragged by it in any direction. Be silent and see the whole question and what happens to it. It comes and it goes; no question remains there. It is just like a signature on water: you have not even made your full signature, and it has started to disappear.<\/p>\n<p>The art of meditation is how to make your questions disappear, not to give you an answer. The answer will bring new questions and there is no end to it. Meditation will leave you in a space where there is no question, no answer, but only a purity, a simplicity \u2013 the same that you had known when you were born. You were alive but there was no question. You were so full of wonder.<\/p>\n<p>Your eyes sparkled seeing a small thing. In a right society \u2013 for which I go on hopelessly hoping \u2013 a child\u2019s innocence should not be destroyed. And when we have an almost oceanic innocence all around, the beauty and the experience of it are so tremendous and so strong that who cares about stupid questions? In fact they never arise.<\/p>\n<p>I am reminded of D.H. Lawrence, a man of this century whom I have loved much. He was condemned from all corners \u2013 not as much as I am condemned, but he prepared the way. He was walking in a garden early in the morning with a small child, and the small child asked, \u201dUncle, why are the trees green?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As far as language is concerned, the question is absolutely correct, but you know that it is stupid and you cannot say that it is stupid. If it had been somebody other than D.H. Lawrence, who was a man of great sincerity and authenticity&#8230; Any other knowledgeable person would have told the child that trees are green because of a certain chemical, chlorophyll.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps for the moment the child would have been silent: chlorophyll&#8230;. But sooner or later the questions were bound to arise, \u201dWhy do all the trees have chlorophyll? Who goes on giving them chlorophyll? What is the purpose of making all the trees full of chlorophyll? What is chlorophyll&#8230;?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But D.H. Lawrence looked at the innocent eyes of the child and said, \u201dMy boy, trees are just green,\u201d and the boy was immensely happy. The trees are green because they are green \u2013 it is not a problem, and the small boy understood it. What can you do? If the trees are green, they are green. It is their problem, it is not our problem \u2013 why should we be bothered?<\/p>\n<p>But as man grows and is filled and fed by all kinds of knowledge and information in the name of educating him, in the name of making him civilized and cultured, we spoil a tremendously beautiful innocence. And there is no need to know why the trees are green&#8230;. It is perfectly good that they are green. If they decide to change, that is their problem, they can change. But look at people\u2019s questions and you will find that all questions without exception are stupid.<\/p>\n<p>Although I might say that this question is very significant, you know I am a contradictory man. It does not bother me, why should it bother you? I am controversial. It has never bothered me, it has bothered the whole world. Strange! These are my problems and I don\u2019t consider them as problems.<\/p>\n<p>They are my unique individuality. Why should you bother? And people get sad&#8230;. Just a few days ago Hasya brought news of a sannyasin that had dropped sannyas because \u201dShree Rajneesh says many things which are not in\u00a0 The Bible.\u201d I am not speaking on\u00a0 The Bible. I don\u2019t care a bit about\u00a0 The Bible. But deep down he must have been waiting to be confirmed in his beliefs, to be blessed: \u201dYou are right and your Bible is right.\u201d And strangely enough, before that he had not read\u00a0 The Bible!<\/p>\n<p>He took sannyas first thinking that I am talking about\u00a0 The Bible. And being impressed he went into an utterly boring book,\u00a0 The Bible. No intelligent man can read it from the first page to the last page \u2013 nobody does it. And what is the problem? Why should I talk about things which are in\u00a0 The Bible? Rather than dropping\u00a0 The Bible, he dropped sannyas. Such is the way of conditioning.<\/p>\n<p>Three missionaries, all nuns, are walking along the street and one is describing with her hands the tremendous grape fruits she has seen in Africa. Then the second one, also with her hands, describes the huge bananas she has seen in India. The third nun, a little deaf, asked, \u201dFather who?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Strange questions \u2013 nothing to do with your own being and its growth. But people go on for their whole lives and finally, they become just walking encyclopedias. They know everything, and deep inside at the center is still the same innocence with which they were born. It is not knowledgeable, it is not ignorant; it is simply innocent. And to be utterly innocent is the whole purpose of all meditations, particularly here. I allow you to ask questions so that I can destroy them as much as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Source: &#8221; Om Shantih Shantih Shantih &#8221; &#8211; Osho<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[113,165,171,410],"tags":[33,110,38,10,2],"class_list":["post-3229","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-awareness","category-osho","category-questions","category-witnessing","tag-awareness","tag-consciousness","tag-heart","tag-mind","tag-osho"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>You are neither the Heart nor the Mind.
