1、EVEN IF SOMETIMES LOVE-LIKE FEELINGS ARISE IN MY HEART, IMMEDIATELY THE NEXT MOMENT I START FEELING THIS IS NOT LOVE, THIS IS NOT LOVE AT ALL: IT IS ALL MY HIDDEN CRAVINGS FOR SEX AND ALL THAT.So what is wrong in it? Love has to arise out of lust. If you avoid lust, you will be avoiding the whole po
2、ssibility of love itself. Love is not lust, true; but love is not without lust - that too is true. Love is higher than lust, yes, but if you destroy lust completely, you destroy the very possibility of the flower arising out of the mud. Love is the lotus, lust is the mud the lotus arises out of. Rem
3、ember it; otherwise you will never attain to love. At the most, you can pretend that you have transcended lust. Because without love, nobody can transcend lust; you can repress it. Repressed, it becomes more poisonous. It spreads into your whole system, it becomes toxic, it destroys you. Lust transf
4、ormed into love gives you a glow, a radiance. You start feeling light, as if you can fly. You start gaining wings. With lust repressed you become heavy, as if you are carrying a weight, as if a big rock is hanging around your neck. With lust repressed, you lose all opportunities to fly in the sky. W
5、ith lust transformed into love, you have passed the test of existence.You have been given a raw material to work, to be creative. Lust is raw material.I have heard.Berkowitz and Michaelson, who were not only business partners but life-long friends, made a pact: that whichever one died first would co
6、me back and tell the other what it was like in heaven.Six months later, Berkowitz died. He was a very moral man, almost saint-like, a puritan who had never done anything wrong, who had always remained afraid of lust and sex. And Michaelson waited for his dear departed holy friend to show some sign t
7、hat he had returned to earth. Michaelson passed the time impatiently hoping for and eagerly awaiting a message from Berkowitz.Then one year after the day of his death, Berkowitz spoke to Michaelson. It was late at night; Michaelson was in bed.Michaelson, Michaelson, echoed the voice.Is that you, Ber
8、kowitz?Yes.What is it like where you are?We have breakfast and then we make love, then we eat lunch and we make love, we have dinner and then we make love.Is that what heaven is like? asked Michaelson.Who said anything about heaven? said Berkowitz. I am in Wisconsin, and I am a bull.Remember, this h
9、appens to people who repress sex. Nothing else can happen because that whole energy repressed becomes a load and pulls you down. You move towards lower stages of being. If love arises out of lust, you start rising towards higher being.So remember, what you want to become - a Buddha or a bull - depen
10、ds on you. If you want to become a Buddha, then dont be afraid of sex. Move into it, know it well, become more and more alert about it. Be careful; it is tremendously valuable energy. Make it a meditation and transform it, by and by, into love. It is raw material, like a raw diamond: you have to cut
11、 it, polish it; then it becomes of tremendous value. If somebody gives you an unpolished, raw, uncut diamond, you may not even recognize that it is a diamond. Even the Kohinoor in its raw state is worthless.Lust is a Kohinoor: it has to be polished, it has to be understood.The questioner seems to be
12、 afraid and antagonistic: It is all my hidden cravings for sex and all that. There is a condemnation in it. Nothing is wrong; man is a sexual animal. Thats how we are. Thats the way life means us to be. Thats how we have found ourselves here. Go into it. Without going, you will never be able to tran
13、sform it. Im not speaking for mere indulgence. Im saying move into it with deep meditative energy to understand what it is. It must be something tremendously valuable because you have come out of it, because the whole existence enjoys it, because the whole existence is sexual. Sex is the way God has
14、 chosen to be in the world, notwithstanding what Christians go on saying - that Jesus was born out of a virgin woman - all foolishness. They pretend that sex was not involved in Jesus birth. They are so afraid of sex that they create foolish stories like this: that Jesus is born out of a virgin Mary
15、. Mary must have been very pure, thats true; she must have been spiritually virgin, that is true - but there is no way to enter into life without passing through the energy that sex is. The body knows no other law. And nature is all-inclusive: it believes in no exceptions, it allows no exceptions. Y
16、ou are born out of sex, you are full of sex energy. But this is not the end; this may be the beginning. Sex is the beginning but not the end.There are three types of people. One thinks that sex is the end also. They are the people who live a life of indulgence. They miss, because sex is the beginnin
17、g but not the end. Then there are people who are against indulgence. They take the other, the opposite extreme: they dont want sex even to be the beginning, so they start cutting it. Cutting it, they cut themselves. Destroying it, they destroy themselves, they wither away. Both are foolish attitudes
18、.There is the third possibility: the possibility of the wise man who looks at life, who has no theories to enforce on life, who just tries to understand. He comes to see that sex is the beginning but not the end. Sex is just an opportunity to grow beyond it, but one has to pass through it.The last q
19、uestion:Question 7OSHO, I USED TO THINK I KNEW WHAT SUBMISSION WAS. NOW I SEE IT - IT WAS A POLITICAL MIND-TRIP TO BUY RELATIONS. NOW THAT THERE IS NO PLACE TO STAND BUT WHERE I AM, BLISS HAS ENTERED. THANK YOU FOR TURNING ME ON MYSELF.It is from Anup.It is significant to have come to an understandi
20、ng of what surrender or submission is. It is one of the keys, but people are very afraid to use it - because if you surrender, submit, you are lost. It is death-like. It is as if one is committing suicide. So people go on doing other things and they call it submission, surrender.To have this underst
21、anding, this glimpse that all that you have up to now been thinking of as surrender, as submission is not the real thing, is a great step towards transformation. Once you understand the false as the false, you are becoming capable of knowing the real as the real. To understand the false as the false is the beginning of understanding the real as the real. The lies have to be exposed. Once lies are exposed, truth stands nude, naked, revealed.
