Awareness ((Awareness is the ability to perceive, to feel, or to be conscious of events, objects, thoughts, emotions, or sensory patterns. In this level of consciousness, sense data can be confirmed by an observer without necessarily implying understanding. More broadly, it is the state or quality of being aware of something. In biological psychology, awareness is defined as a human’s or an animal’s perception and cognitive reaction to a condition or event. according to Wikipedia)) , when it is in the context of raising your vibration, is an inner awareness, awareness of what lies below the surface, maybe even several layers deep. But to develop awareness, we need to start real close to the surface, and maybe even outside of it… a little bit. ((This means, that when we talk about awareness, we don’t talk about situational awareness, we won’t mean awareness of beings or entitie
Osho on Knowledge and Knowing
ASCENDING TO THE HIGH SEAT, DOGEN ZENJI SAID: “ZEN MASTER HOGEN STUDIED WITH KEISHIN ZENJI.
ONCE KEISHIN ZENJI ASKED HIM, JOZA, WHERE DO YOU GO?’
HOGEN SAID. ‘I AM MAKING PILGRIMAGE AIMLESSLY.’
KEISHIN SAID, ‘WHAT IS THE MATTER OF YOUR PILGRIMAGE?’
HOGEN SAID, ‘I DON’T KNOW.’
KEISHIN SAID, …
Is it change your really want?
Change vs. what you really want
We all say we want to change. Change ourselves, our financial situation, our habits.
Some of us only use the word because we don’t know how to say what we mean. But most of us literally mean: change.
But there is a problem with the phenomenon: change. It actually gets you more of what you are changing.
It sounds like an oxymoron. More of what I don’t want? Yeah, that’s right. More of what you don’t want.
Are you using your adult capacities?
The first Osho book I have ever read, was Maturity. I started to read it in the store, and fell in love with it.
It echoed one of my favorite Landmark courses, the Wisdom Course.
In that course, maturity was a state (they call it possibility, just a Landmark word!): where you were using adult capacities to live your life.
One would think that when you are an adult you use your adult capacities, but that is not the case.
Spiritual Laws that you obey or disobey at the expense of your vibration: The Law of Flexibility
Ask anyone; the happiest moments of one’s life are the moment when we find ourselves in our vertical self… or at least centered and grounded in the bottom of it.
It doesn’t happen a lot, because we are brought up and encouraged to live in our horizontal being.
Are you a nice person? Let’s take a look at that
Is it fear? Or is it unwillingness?
The human DNA isn’t a DNA for kindness, caring, or any of the “nice” stuff we are supposed to be.
In fact, it will take changing the DNA to go to the next level, to the level of human being, to be able to be kind, caring.
Our “soul correction” is the path.
The month when abundance is on your mind
It must be January, because my Effortless Abundance bundle is selling a lot. And Unlimited Abundance, astutely, is launching this month…
January, everyone looking at their current situation and starting to organize themselves to improve what they have.
Manifesting: is it possible for a human?
Every Tom, Dick, and Harry teaches manifesting. Are all these people wrong?
Do I dare saying that manifesting is not possible, or will I succumb to my fear of being killed, and tell you to calm down: you can manifest, if you do it right, if you just want it bad enough?
I probably should be scared, but to tell you the truth, when it’s time, I’ll die peacefully, knowing that I lived in integrity. That is all anyone can hope for in a lifetime.
Now, with regards to this manifesting issue, here is the scoop:
Awakenings… your one way out of the misery
There have been several awakenings in my life.
The first potential awakening was when I was 22 years old. I had been in the mental hospital for two weeks and my condition didn’t get better, no matter what they did to me. They even tried to use insulin shock therapy on me… that’s really bad, if you want to know the truth.
Then, as a last resort, they sent me to the “showers” that you should know from the Cuckoo’s nest movie… halfway though the “showers” I snapped out of it. There I was stark naked, and the misery wasn’t me, it wasn’t even mine.

Ultimately there are two types of teachers:
Can do (occasionally) what they teach, but unaware and unconscious of what they are doing
Can’t even do what they teach, but expect you to do it regardless
