Not only Krishnamurti is using that technique, it has been used many times before. It is one of the oldest techniques, nothing is new about it.<\/p>\n<p>Two thousand years ago Bodhidharma used it. He introduced into China what is now known as Chan or Zen-Buddhism. He was a Hindu monk, a monk from India. He believed in no-technique. Zen is based on no-technique. Zen masters say that if you do something you will miss, because who will do? You? You are the disease, and out of you nothing else can be born. Who will make the effort? Your mind, and your mind has to be destroyed \u2013 and you cannot destroy the mind itself with help from the mind. Whatsoever you do, your mind will be more strengthened.<\/p>\n<p>So Zen says there is no technique, no method, there is no scripture and there can be no guru. But the beauty is that Zen has created the greatest of gurus and Zen masters have written the best scriptures in the world. And through Zen thousands and thousands of people attained nirvana \u2013 but they say there is no technique.<\/p>\n<p>So it has to be understood that no-technique is really one of the foundational techniques. The emphasis is on \u201dno\u201d so that your mind is negated. Mind can have two attitudes \u2013 yes or no. These are the two possibilities, the two alternatives, just as they are in everything. No is the feminine and yes is the male. So you can use the method of no, or you can use the method of yes. If you follow the method of yes, then there are many methods \u2013 but you have to say yes and there can be many yes\u2019s. If you follow no, then there are not many methods, only one, because there cannot be many no\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p>Look at this point: there are so many religions in the world, so many types of theists. There are at least three hundred religions in existence right now. So theism has three hundred temples, churches, scriptures. But there is only one type of atheism, there cannot be two. Atheists have no sects. When you say there is no God, the thing is finished. You cannot differentiate between two no\u2019s, you cannot make any difference. But when you say, \u201dYes there is God,\u201d then there is a possibility of difference. Because my yes will create my own God and your yes will create your own God. Your yes may be said to Jesus, my yes may be said to Krishna \u2013 but when you say no, then all no\u2019s are similar. That is why on the earth there are no sects in atheism.<\/p>\n<p>Atheists are all alike. They don\u2019t have any scripture, they don\u2019t have any church. When they don\u2019t have any positive attitude there is nothing to differ about, a simple no is enough. The same has happened about techniques: no has only one technique, yes has one hundred and\u00a0 twelve, or many more even are possible. You can create new combinations.<\/p>\n<p>Someone has said that the method I teach, the dynamic method of meditation, is not included in these one hundred and twelve methods. It is not included because it is a new combination, but all that is in it is there in the hundred and twelve methods. Some parts are in one technique, some other part is in some other technique. These hundred and twelve are the basic methods. You can create thousands out of them. There is no end to it. Any number of combinations is possible.<\/p>\n<p>But those who say there is no method can have only one method. You cannot create much out of no. So Bodhidharma, Lin Chi, Bokuju, Krishnamurti, have only one method. Really Krishnamurti comes just after a succession of Zen masters. He is talking Zen. Nothing is new about it. But Zen always looks new, and the reason is because Zen doesn\u2019t believe in scriptures, doesn\u2019t believe in tradition, doesn\u2019t believe in techniques.<\/p>\n<p>So whenever no arises again it is fresh and new. Yes believes in tradition, in scriptures, in masters. Whenever yes is there, it will have a long beginningless tradition. Those who have said yes, Krishna or Mahavir, they go on saying that they are not saying anything new. Mahavir says,\u201dBefore me twenty-three TEERTHANKARAS have taught the same.\u201d And Krishna says, \u201dBefore me, this seer gave this message to that seer, that seer gave the message to that and it has been coming down. I am not saying anything new.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Yes will always be old, eternal. No will always look new, as if it has suddenly come into being. No cannot have traditional roots. It is unrooted. That is why Krishnamurti looks new. He is not.<\/p>\n<p>What is this technique of \u201ddenying technique\u201d? It can be used. It is one of the subtlest ways to kill and destroy the mind. Mind tries to cling to something that is a support; mind needs support to be there, it cannot exist in a vacuum. So it creates many types of supports \u2013 churches, scriptures, Bible, Koran, Gita \u2013 then it is happy, there is something to cling to. But then with this clinging the mind remains.<\/p>\n<p>This technique of no-technique insists on destroying all supports. So it will insist that there is no scripture. No Bible can be of help because the Bible is nothing but words; no Gita can be of any help because whatsoever you come to know through Gita will be borrowed, and truth cannot be borrowed. No tradition is of any help because truth has to be achieved authentically, individually. You have to come to it, it cannot be transferred to you. No master can give it to you because it is not something like property. It is not transferable, it cannot be taught because it is not information. If a master teaches you, you can learn only words, concepts, doctrines. No master can make you a realized one. That realization has to happen to you and it has to happen without any help. If it happens through some help then it is dependent and then it cannot lead you to ultimate freedom, to MOKSHA.<\/p>\n<p>These are the parts of this no-technique. Through these criticisms, negations and arguments, supports are destroyed. Then you are left alone with no guru, no scripture, no tradition, no\u00a0 church, nowhere to move, nowhere to go, nowhere to be dependent. You are left in a vacuum. And really, if you can conceive of this vacuum and are ready to be in it, you will be transformed. But mind is very cunning. If Krishnamurti says to you that these are things \u2013 no support, no clinging, no master, no scripture, no technique \u2013 you will cling to Krishnamurti. There are many clinging to him. The mind has again created a support and then the whole point is lost.<\/p>\n<p>Many people come to me and they say, \u201dOur minds are in anguish. How to come to the inner peace, how to attain the inner silence?\u201d And if I give them some technique they say, \u201dBut techniques cannot help because we have been listening to Krishnamurti.\u201d Then I ask them, \u201dThen why have you come to me? And what do you mean when you ask, \u2018How to attain silence?\u2019 You are asking for a technique and you are still going to listen to Krishnamurti. Why?<\/p>\n<p>f there is no master and if the real cannot be taught, then why are you going on listening to him? He cannot teach you anything. But you go on listening to him and you are being aught. And you have now started to cling to this no-technique. So whenever someone gives you technique, you will say, \u2018No, we don\u2019t believe in techniques.\u2019 And you are still not silent. So what has happened? Where have you missed the train? If you really need no-technique, if you don\u2019t have any technique \u2013 you must have attained. But you have not attained.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The basic point has been missed; the basic point is that for this no-technique technique to work you must destroy all support, you must not cling to anything. And it is very arduous. It is almost impossible. That is why so many people for these last forty years have been listening to Krishnamurti but nothing has happened to them. It is so arduous and difficult, almost impossible to remain unsupported, to remain totally alone and to be alert that the mind is not allowed to create any support. Because mind is very cunning, it can create subtle supports again and again. You may throw away Gita, but then you fill the space with Krishnamurti\u2019s books. You may laugh at Mohammed, you may laugh at Mahavir, but if someone laughs at Krishnamurti you get angry. Again in a roundabout way you have created a support, you are clinging.<\/p>\n<p>Non-clinging is the secret of this method. If you can do it, it is good; if you cannot do it, then don\u2019t deceive. Then there are methods. Use them! Then be clear that you cannot be alone so you will take someone\u2019s help. Help is possible. Through help also, transformation is possible.<\/p>\n<p>These are the opposites \u2013 no and yes, these are opposites. You can move from either but you must decide about your own mind and its working. If you feel that you can be alone&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>Once it happened that when I was staying in a village a man came and he said to me, \u201dI am confused. My family is trying to arrange a marriage for me.\u201d He was a young man, just fresh from university. He said, \u201dI don\u2019t want to be involved in all that. I want to become a SANNYASIN, I want to renounce all. So what is your advice?\u201d I told him, \u201dI never went to ask anybody, but you have come to take my advice. When you have come to take advice it shows that you need support, that you need. It will be difficult for you to live without a wife. That too is a support,\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You cannot live without a wife, you cannot live without your husband, but you think you can live without a guru? Impossible! Your mind needs support in every way. Why do you go to Krishnamurti? You go to learn, you go to be taught, you go to borrow knowledge. Otherwise there is no need. Many times it has happened that friends will say, \u201dIt would be good if you and Krishnamurti meet.\u201d So I tell them, \u201dYou go and ask Krishnamurti and if he wants to meet, I will come. But what is going to be there? What will we do? What will we talk about? We can remain silent. What is the need? But they say, \u201dIt would be good if you both meet. It would be good for us. We will be happy to listen to what you say.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So I tell them a story. Once it happened that a Mohammedan mystic, Farid, was traveling. When they came near the village of Kabir, another mystic, the followers of Farid said that it would be very good if they both meet. And when it became known to Kabir\u2019s disciples, they also insisted that, As Farid was passing, they should invite him in. So Kabir said, \u201dIt is okay.\u201d Farid also said, \u201dIt is okay. We will go, but don\u2019t say anything when I enter Kabir\u2019s hut, remain quite silent.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For two days Farid stayed in Kabir\u2019s hut. There was total silence. They sat silently for two days and then Kabir came to the edge of his village to give a send-off to Farid \u2013 and in silence they departed. The moment they departed the followers of both started asking. The followers of Kabir asked him, \u201dWhat was this? It became a boredom. You were sitting silently for two days, not even a single word was spoken, and we were so eager to hear.\u201d Farid\u2019s followers also said, \u201dWhat was this? It seems weird. For two days continuously we were watching and watching and waiting and waiting for something to come out of this meeting. But nothing came out.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Farid is reported to have said, \u201dWhat do you mean? Two persons who know, cannot talk; two persons who don\u2019t know, can talk much, but it is useless, even harmful. The only possibility is one person who knows, talking to one who doesn\u2019t know\u201d And Kabir said,\u201dWhoever uttered a single word would have proved that he didn\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>You go on asking for advice, you go on searching for supports. Realize it will that if you cannot remain without support, then it is good to find a support, a guide, knowingly. If you think that there is no need, that you are enough unto yourself, then stop seeking Krishnamurti or anybody. Stop going and remain alone.<\/p>\n<p>It has happened also to persons who were alone but the phenomenon is very rare. Sometimes to one person in millions it happens \u2013 and that too is not without any cause. That person may have been seeking for many lives; he may have been finding many supports, many masters, many guides, and now a point has come where he can be alone. Only then it happens. But whenever it happens to a person, that he achieves the ultimate alone, he starts saying that it can happen to you also. It is natural.<\/p>\n<p>Because it happened to Krishnamurti alone, he goes on saying that it can happen to you. It cannot happen to you! You are in search of support and that shows that alone you cannot do it. So don\u2019t be deceived by yourself! Your ego may feel good that, \u201dI don\u2019t need any support!\u201d Ego always thinks in terms of, \u201dI alone am enough,\u201d but that ego will not help. That will become the greatest barrier possible. No-technique is a technique but only for very specific people; for those who have struggled in many lives and have now come to a point where they can be alone, that technique is a help. And if you are that type of person, I know well you will not be here. So I am not worried about that person, he will not be here. He cannot be here. Not only here, he cannot be anywhere with any master, listening, seeking, searching, practicing. He will not be found anywhere. So we can leave him, we need not discuss him.<\/p>\n<p>These techniques are for you. So this is how I will conclude. Krishnamurti is talking for the person who cannot be there and I am talking for persons who are here. Whatsoever Krishnamurti is saying is absolutely right but the persons to whom he is saying it are absolutely wrong. The person who can be alone, who without any method, any support, any scripture, any guru, can reach, is not going to listen to Krishnamurti because there is no need, there is no meaning. And those who are going to listen, they are not of that type, they will be in deep difficulty \u2013 and they are. They need support and their mind goes on thinking that there is no need for support. They need a guru and their mind goes on saying that the guru is a barrier. They need techniques and logically they have concluded that techniques cannot help. They are in deep trouble, but the trouble is created by themselves.<\/p>\n<p>Before you start doing something you must try to understand what type of mind you have got, because ultimately the guru is not meaningful, ultimately our mind is meaningful. The ultimate decision is going to come through your mind, the destiny is to be fulfilled through your mind \u2013 so understand it, without any ego confusing you. Just understand if you need support, guidance, techniques, methods to work with. If you need them, find them. If you don\u2019t need them, there is no question: be alone, unclinging, move alone, unclinging. The same will happen through both ways. Yes and no are two opposites and you have to find out what your path is.<\/p>\n<p>Source &#8211; Osho Book &#8220;Vigyan Bhairav Tantra, Vol 2&#8221;<\/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\/osho_anapansati_yoga.jpg?fit=252%2C289&ssl=1\" title=\"osho_\" alt=\"Every addiction is going to prevent you from becoming a meditator.
