alif al'lah chambey di booti-- meaning


Alif Al'Lah chambay di booti, tay meray murshid maan vich lai hoo


Alif Al'Lah...My Master (guru) has planted the fragrant seed of love in my heart

Ho nafi-asbaat da paani dey kay


by giving me the drink of negation-affirmation (La’ilaha,illal’La’Hu)

Har raggay harjai Hu


I am detached from everything

Ho joog joog jeevay mera Murshid sohna


May my loving Master (guru) be there for ever and ever

Hathhay jissay booti lai ho


who blew life into me

Pir meraya jugni


I have the spirit of my Pir (guru)

As way Al’Lah waliyan di jugni ji


The spirit of all the lovers of Al’Lah

Ae way Nabi Pak di jugni ji


The spirit of the Holy Prophet (Muhammad)

Ae way Maula Ali wali jugni ji


The spirit of Maula Ali

Ae way merry pir di jugni ji


The spirit of my Pir (guru)

Ae way saaray sabaz di jugni ji

Dum gutkoon, dum gutkoon, dum gutkoon


Every time I think of you my God, my heart races

Karay Saaeein pardhay tay kalima nabi da parthay saaein


Fakir recites the kalima that was brought on by Prophet Muhammad (La’ilaha,illal’LaHu

Jugni taat khaeein vich thaal


O’people, share what ever you have

Chhadh duniya dey janjaal


discard worldly worries

Kuch nai nibna bandiya naal


There is nothing you can take to the grave

Rakhi saabat sidh ammal


Except your pure and righteous actions

Jugni dig payee vich roi


So perplexed was the creation that she stumbled (poet is referring to the Covenant of Alast, mentioned in the Qu’ran))

Otthay ro ro kamli hoi


There she wailed profusely

Oddi vaath naye lainda koi


But there was no one who could notice

Tay kalmay binna nai mildi toi


Remember, there is no salvation without kalima (La’ilaha,illal’LaHu) —

Ho wanga charha lo kuriyon


Put on your bangles, girls

Mere daata dey darbar diyan


At the court of my Daata (Ali Hijviri)

Ho naa kar Dheeya khair piyari


Daughter, don’t be proud of your youth

Maan daindiya gailryaan


your mother scruffs and scolds you

Din din talhi juwani jaandi


With each passing day, your youth slips by

Joon sohna puthia lariyaan


Even gold when put in furnace moulds itself

Aurat marad, shahzaday sohney


Women, men are so beautiful

O moti, O laa lariyaan


Like pearls, like the gems

Sir da sarfa kar naa kairey


Those who are not self-absorbed

Peer prem pyar lariyan


They are the ones who know unconditional Love

O daata day darbaar jaw ke ache


Whenever you visit the court (shrine) of Daata Sahib

Pawan khair sawa lariyan

osho quotes on sex


  • You can be intense in sex and you may not be sincere, because sex is not necessarily love. You may be very, very intense in your sexuality -- but once sexuality is fulfilled, it is finished, the intensity gone. Love may not look so intense, but it is sincere -- and because it is sincere, the intensity continues. In fact, if you are really in love it becomes a timelessness. It is always intense. And make a clear distinction: if you are intense without sincerity, you cannot be forever intense. Only momentarily you can be intense; when the desire arises you are intense. It is not really your intensity. It is enforced by the desire.
     
  • Love is the creative refinement of sex energy. And so, when love reaches perfection, the absence of sex automatically follows. A life of love, an abstinence from physical pleasures is called brahmacharya, and anyone who wishes to be free from sex must develop his capacity to love. Freedom from sex cannot be achieved through supersession. Liberation from sex is only possible through love.
     
  • The more mind is filled with chattering, more sex has appeal.
     
  • Why is so much sex needed? Because you are tense, sex becomes a release. Your tensions are released through it -- you feel relaxed, you can go to sleep; if you repress it, you remain tense. And if you repress sex -- the only release, the only possibility of release -- what will happen? You will go mad. Where will you release your tensions then?
     
  • Only in sex the noise sometimes stops. I say "sometimes". If you have become habitual in sex also, as husbands and wives become, then it never stops. The whole act becomes automatic and the mind goes on its own. Then sex also is a boredom.
     
  • If you fight sex, sex becomes the center. Then, continuously, you are engaged in it, occupied with it. It becomes like a wound. And wherever you look, that wound immediately projects, and whatsoever you see becomes sexual.
     
  • Brahmacharya is not against sex. If it is against sex then sex can never disappear. Brahmacharya is a transmutation of the energy: it is not being against sex, rather it is changing the whole energy from the sex center to the higher centers. When it reaches to the seventh center of man, the sahasrar, then brahmacharya happens. If it remains in the first center, muladhar, then sex; when it reaches to the seventh center, then samadhi. The same energy moves. It is not being against it; rather, it is an art how to use it.
     
  • If you go on loving a person deeply, by and by sex disappears. Intimacy becomes so fulfilling, then there is no need for sex; love is enough unto itself. When that moment comes then there is the possibility of prayer dawning upon you.
     
  • When you make sex to a person, woman or man, you think it unites you. For a moment it gives you the illusion of unity, and then a vast division suddenly comes in. That's why after every sex act, a frustration, a depression sets in. One feels that one is so far away from the beloved. Sex divides, and when love goes deeper and deeper and unites more and more, there is no need for sex. Your inner energies can meet without sex, and you live in such a unity.
     
  • When you are feeling very passionate, lust, sex takes over. Just try to be tranquil in the breathing, and you feel sex has disappeared.
     
  • When sex desire arises, one simply pays total attention to it, not judging, not saying this is good or bad not saying this is evil, not saying that this is a provocation from the devil. No -- no evaluation at all because all valuation belongs to the mind and witnessing is not of the mind. Good, bad -- distinctions all belong to the mind, and the witnessing is undivided, one. It is neither good nor bad, it simply is. One pays attention to hunger or to the sex desire, total attention -- and total attention is such an energy, it is fire-the hunger simply is burned, the sex desire is simply burned.
     
  • A great poet, a great singer, a dancer who is moving totally in his commitment, automatically becomes celibate. He has no discipline for it. Sex is superfluous energy; sex is a safety valve. When you have too much in you and you cannot do anything with it, the nature has made a safety valve; you can throw it out. You can release it, otherwise you will go mad or burst  --  explode. And if you try to suppress it, then too you will go mad, because suppressing it won't help. It needs a transformation, and that transformation comes from total commitment. A warrior, if he is really a warrior  --  an impeccable warrior, will be beyond sex. His whole energy is moving.
     
  • If you are involved totally, sex disappears because sex is a safety valve. When you have energy unused, then sex becomes a haunting thing around you. When total energy is used, sex disappears. And that is the state of brahmacharya, of virya, of all your potential energy flowering.
     
  • If you can come to this nowness without sex, sex, by and by will become useless, it will disappear. It will not be a desire then. If you want to move in it you can move into it as a fun, but not as a desire. Then there is no obsession in it because you are not dependent on it.
     
  • What happens with your sex energy depends on how you use it. What it can become does not depend on it alone, but on your understanding and on how you live your life. Have you not observed that it becomes brahmacharya, the state of celibacy when it is transformed? bramhacharya is not hostile to passion; brahmacharya is the purification, the transcendence, the sublimation of passion. In the same way, the energy that manifests itself in violence becomes peace, serenity and tranquility. It is only a question of transformation.
     
  • Be a witness of sex too. Don't be the controller of it. Don't try to forcibly bring it under control, remain a witness of it too. Just as you are a witness of everything else, remain a witness of sex too.
     
  • Transcendence of sex is a totally different phenomenon from the suppression of it. But suppression can give you the feeling that you have transcended.

Love is the Color of Godliness



 OSHO HAS SAID THIS MANY A TIMES THAT HE HIMSELF DID NOT ATTAIN THE ULTIMATE TRUTH THROUGH BHAKTI YOGA, BUT FOR A TRAVELER THE BEST PATH IS BHAKTI. KINDLY PUT SOME LIGHT ON THIS.
That’s right. Osho did not reach through BHAKTI yoga. Osho reached ultimate truth through path of Dhyan Yoga – path of meditation, awareness. But the path of meditation is dry and arid; it is like the journey in a desert. If one path goes through a desert and another path goes through valley of flowers and trees, then any intelligent person will prefer a path where there is greenery all around, where there are waterfalls, peacocks are dancing, cuckoo is singing. The path of meditation is parched, where one gets baked in the heat of sun. There is love, songs, dance and celebration on the path of devotion. Realizing this, Osho says there was no one to suggest me but I am here to suggest you. Therefore I tell you to leave other paths and walk on the path of devotion.
A famous saint happened in Bengal. His name was Baba Bhajan Bhramachari. He had thousands of disciples. In those days people use to criticize all Osho sannyasins. In earlier days, it was very easy to recognize the disciples of Osho as they used to wear orange robes and Mala while doing their daily chorus work. But Baba Bhajan Brahmachari gave more value and more respect to me than his own disciples. He made me sit besides himself whereas when his disciples used to leave, he used to say “Come, I will make you hear one song”. He used to sing very sweetly. He had written one song, which he himself sang sometimes and at times he played its cassette –
“Bhakti ka marag seedha re, kahe Baba Brahmachari”
I used to say “No, my path is of meditation. My path is not of devotion. My master teaches meditation.”  Baba Bhajan Brahmachari used to say “You don’t know, the path of devotion is very simple. There are many deludes in other paths. On the path of devotion not many deludes are there. It is a path of fun and one day you will have to reach through this path. At the end there is no difference left between different paths. So you travel through the way of devotion.”
Today I feel that Baba Bhajan Brahamachari was absolutely right. On the path of devotion you reach the destination on the very first step, because it is the path of love.
Tujhe malum bhi hai kitne janam beet gaye
Bada e talakhiye ayyaam ko peete peete.
This means - By drinking the bitter liquor of wealth, position, power, fame, how many births have you passed? Do you know?
Tishnagi phir bhi teri kam nahin hone payi
Aao peeneka saleeka main batata hoon tujhe,
De mere hath mein hath aur chal mere saath.
Aao chalne ka salika main batata hu tujhe.
Ishq ka pehla kadam hi hai naviye manzil.
Aao jeene ka salika main batata hu tujhe.

This means- Your desires are not yet reduced. Your thirst has not yet been quenched. Come, I will teach you the manner of drinking. Give your hand in my hand and walk with me.  Come, I will teach you the manner of walking. The first step of love is the last ladder of destination. Come, I will teach you the manner of living.
In love the first step is stepped on the destination. Remember that where the last step is placed in the path of meditation, in love the fist step itself is placed there.
                   
Ishq ka pehla kadam hi hai naviye manzil.
Aao jeene ka salika main batata hu tujhe.
Osho rightly says that if you travel through the path of devotion there is bliss at the destination as well as there is bliss on the way. If you go through the path of meditation, then there is no bliss on the way. When you reach the destination till that you are used to live in a dry and arid way, so you remain dry and arid on reaching the destination. If provision is made who won't like to travel through the path of devotion?
              Akbar asked saint Dadu how is God? What is His color? What is His caste? What is His style? How does He exist? Saint Dadu said a lovely thing–
“Ishk allah ki jaat hai, ishk allah ka dhang.
Ishk allah aujud hai, ishk allah ka rang.”
Love is its caste. Love is its form. Love is its way. Love is its color. So definitely if there is provision to go through the path of devotion, then any wise person will wish to go through it.

osho quotes on present moment




Osho Quotes on Present Moment
  • Live each moment as if you were going to die the next, and then there will be a great intensity and a great passion. You will be aflame with life. That being aflame is what being divine is to me.
  • You have to pull all your energy back to the present moment. And the moment the whole energy becomes a pool, here and now, the explosion of light happens and you are, for the first time, absolutely yourself -- an eternal being, an immortal being, who knows nothing of death, who has never come across any darkness.
  • Intelligence is the capacity to be in the present. The more you are in the past or are in the future, the less intelligent you are. Intelligence is the capacity to be here-now, to be in this moment and nowhere else. Then you are awake.
  • When you are in the present without thinking, you are for the first time spiritual.
  • This is the sleep: being absent, being not present to the present moment, being somewhere else.
  • God is not in heaven -- God is in the present moment. If you are also in the present moment you enter the temple.
  • The reality consists only of now, the present. It has nothing to do with the past and nothing to do with the future. It is so concentrated in this moment that if you can be in this moment, all that you are seeking and searching will be fulfilled. This moment is the door to the divine.
  • Act in the moment, live in the present, slowly slowly don't allow the past to interfere And you will be surprised that life is such an eternal wonder, such a mysterious phenomenon and such a great gift that one simply feels constantly in gratitude. So this is my message for you: live in the moment, herenow. That's why I call it divine purity
  • I teach you that there is no other aim than to live with such totality that each moment becomes a celebration. The very idea of "aim" brings future into the mind, because any aim, any end, any goal, needs future. All your goals deprive you of your present, which is the only reality you have. The future is only your imagination, and the past is just footprints left in the sands of your memory. Neither is the past real anymore, nor is the future real yet. This moment is the only reality.
  • I am utterly devoted to the present moment. Don't move into the past because that is memory; there is no relevant existence to your memory anymore. Don't move into the future because that is only imagination. Just remain here, and you will be surprised. If you are just now here, all thoughts disappear, because all thoughts are either of the past or of the future. No thought is of the present. The present is so pure, so clean, so clear, just an opening into the cosmos. This is Zen, and this is the key to enter into life eternal. The very feel of life eternal takes all tensions, anxieties of old age, of sickness, of death, and birth away from you.
  • Each moment life is new and you have to respond from your inner newness, you have to be available to the new as the new. And you have to respond, not out of your knowledge, but out of your present awareness. Only then life works, otherwise life stops working. If your life is not working, remember, it is the ego that is hindering, the mechanical has encroached upon the organic. To be free from the mechanical is to be in God, because it is to be in the organic unity of existence.
  • Awareness means that whatsoever is happening in the moment is happening with complete consciousness; you are present there. If you are present when anger is happening, anger cannot happen. It can happen only when you are fast asleep. When you are present, immediate, transformation starts in your being, because when you are present, aware, many things are simply not possible. All that is called sin is not possible if you are aware. So, in fact, there is only one sin and that is unawareness.
  • Greed arises only because your present moment is empty, and to live in an empty moment hurts very much. To forget it you project greed into the future, thinking that tomorrow things are going to be better, a lottery is going to open in your name. But of course you have to wait for tomorrow, it cannot be just now -- and tomorrow never comes. All that comes is always the present moment, which is empty. Greed is because we don't know how to live the present moment in its total richness.
  • The science of meditation: it brings you to the present, it brings you to this moment. The past is a thought; it disappears when thoughts disappear. The future is also a thought; it disappears when you drop thinking. When you are in a state of no-thought -- there is no past, no future, there is only the present -- in that state of no-thought you are ONE, in tune with God. And suddenly the flood is there: you are flooded with light, with love, with grace. You are no more a man, you are divine. You have surpassed humanity. Humanity is in a state of deep sleep.
  • My sannyasin has to be utterly alive alive, spontaneous, responsive to the moment. My sannyasin has to forget both the past and the future, because one is no more and the other is not yet. Then you are left only with this moment and the rain falling on the trees, and the sounds... and you and me.... And then there is blessing. It is impossible to be miserable in the present. People are always miserable because of the past or the future. People are worried because they have done something in the past or something has been done to them, or they are worried about whether they will be able to do something right in the future or not. The present moment is utterly free of worry. It has a taste of the divine... the door to god opens through it.

Osho Quotes on Contentment
  • Meditation is the key to open the door, the door of absolute contentment. Mind is always discontented., hence meditation means creating a state of no-mind. That space is always contented.
     
  • Move inwards! Contentment is a quality of your center; it is not found on the circumference. Fulfillment is when you have arrived at your real, authentic being; it is not found in the ego.
     
  • Contentment is the door to god. If one is contented, one has already arrived. And the meaning of contentment is absolute acceptance as you are. Contentment means acceptance, discontentment means non-acceptance. A wants to become B -- that is discontent. A is perfectly happy in being A, there is no desire to become B -- that is contentment.
     
  • Egolessness is contentment.
     
  • Discontentment is human, contentment is divine. Animals know neither contentment nor discontentment; they simply go on living mechanically, unconsciously. It is the great privilege of human being to be aware of discontent. To be aware of discontent means there is a possibility to grow towards contentment. But very few people make any effort towards inner growth. Their whole life is rooted in a misunderstanding. They think that if they have a bigger house or more money or more power or more prestige they will be contented; that if they become famous, if their name is known all over the world, then they will be contented. That is sheer nonsense.
     
  • Only meditation, only silence, only transcending beyond your mind is going to give you contentment and fulfillment.
     
  • All power is God's power; we are only vehicles. He pulsates in our hearts. He breathes through us. He sings a thousand and one songs through us. Sannyas means to let this understanding become the foundation of your life: We are not, God is. Let the ego disappear, evaporate, and you will find infinite contentment. With the ego there is only misery; without the ego there is only God; and God is bliss, and God is benediction, and God is ecstasy. Die to the ego so that God can live in you.
     
  • As meditation goes deep you will feel less and less desires, more and more contentment with whatsoever you have. There will be less and less desire for that which you don't have, and more and more contentment with whatsoever you have. As meditation goes deeper, a very contented consciousness evolves. Ultimately there is no desire, only contentment.
    They are contraries, contradictories:
    More desires, then less contentment.
    Less desires, then more contentment.
    No desires, then absolute contentment.
     
  • I teach contentment. And the basic principle of contentment is to drop your ego. Don't think for a single moment, "To be or not to be." Just not to be is the rule. What have you gained by trying to be? Just for a change try not to be, and you will be amazed. The moment you are not, there is contentment, there is silence, there is beauty, there is bliss. Meditation is only a methodology to make you aware that your only disease is your ego, and your only health is egolessness.
     
  • Be contented with whatsoever is; never ask for more. The moment you ask for more you have asked for hell. The moment you ask for more you have asked for misery. The desire for more creates misery.
     
  • If meditation is going rightly, deep, you will feel transformed throughout the whole day. A subtle contentment will be present every moment. With whatsoever you are doing, you will feel a cool center inside -- contentment.
     
  • You cannot possess all and everything. Whatsoever you possess will not give you contentment. The mind, the ego, will always feel unfulfilled.
     
  • The more you are possession oriented, the less happy you will be. The less happy you are, the farther away from the Divine, from prayer, from gratitude you will be. Be austere. Live with the necessary and forget about desires; they are fantasies in the mind, ripples in the lake. They only disturb you, they can never lead you to any contentment.
     
  • When a man is able to be alone he is also able to love. And his love has a totally different quality, a different beauty, a different fragrance to it. It is something divine, it is something of the beyond. It is deeply fulfilling. It brings great contentment.
     
  • Love can have the quality of the devil -- that's how it is there in the world, ninety-nine percent. Love can have the quality of God, and unless you make your love divine, it is not going to give you any contentment.
     
  • The moment you become a little distant from the mind -- that's what meditation is, creating a distance between you and the mind -- you start feeling a new climate, the climate of contentment. Suddenly there is no hankering for anything. Suddenly the future is no more your interest, the past is no more your obsession. whatsoever you have seems to be so fulfilling; it may not be much but it seems so fulfilling. Even ordinary things of life can give such tremendous contentment that one could have never believed it before. Just sipping a cup of tea is more than one can ask for, or just breathing or just listening to the wind passing through the pine trees or just the moon reflected on the water. The whole world becomes a totally different kind of world when you are moving away from the mind.
