"Desire is our imprisonment. The man who wants nothing, who is
absolutely contented as he is, is free of all bondage. He has
attained to ultimate freedom, nirvana -- and that is the goal of
life. And it is only by attaining that freedom that you will know
the significance of being, the song of being, the celebration of
being. Your life will become a continuous bliss, and not only that
YOU will be blissful, you will be able to bless others too. The
whole existence will be blessed by you, by your very presence." -Osho
For those of you who don't know; Osho was an Indian spiritual teacher. He was a teacher of philosophy who traveled around India in the 1960's. He taught the importance of meditation, awareness, love, celebration, courage, creativity, and humor. These are all things I am trying to base my life around. Forget the sadness, anger, jealousy, and pessimism. I'm on a search for optimism and essentially, happiness.
