Essential things in Life?
Posted on Jul 23, 2008 under Uncategorized |For the past 6 odd years i have been chasing this question,What is the much needed thing in this life?I don’t know for what purpose i am living and what i am going to do?But i feel i have to do something otherwise?I am really puzzled and can’t get my head into any single thing ,Do i want to be an good engineer?Do i want to be a entrepreneur?Or what ?I really don’t know the answer.I feel i don’t have a focus on practically anything.
People will advice to have focus on anything,but Osho has a different answer.He feels focus is not needed if you have the consciousness .Puzzled?Me too.I will let you know his teachings once i understood.Meanwhile try to find some solution for my problem.Is it really a problem?

The first thing which surprises me is, you are “listening” to Osho. May be becoz of it is something new that you dont know so that you cant argue. And I think he is not some relegious oriented. (You are aethist.)
The question can be answered by sacred writings of any releigion. Becoz all searched for the “reason of miseries, reason of living and dying”. But I dont know is there any one line answer for this. You may need to read the full writing (with beleif) and interpret the reason for yourself.
Even I have the same question “what is the reason for this life?”. Yet I didnt get any convincing answer. But I can assure onething my reason cant be yours.

I simply don’t believe in any form god(Jesus,Krishna etc.,),if it is called atheism i accept that,but i never criticized anyone regarding this,bcoz i respect others beliefs.I believe there is two forms of living, one is entirely believing everything is by the deeds of god and the second one is analyzing it or investigating the situation .I feel human instinct is investigative(so that he grew up like this) and so i guess not all or say everyone don’t belong to the first one for some times or most of the times.Even though i don’t believe in God’s i believe in the sacred text’s because for my belief it might be written by some wise men with his own problems and solutions,i feel it may help me or give me a clear vision.
I am just started to learn Osho,but not yet understood.His teachings seems to be bit logical which attracts me to read more of him.

That was beautiful. I hope that there are natural forces, deities, and entities who are as passionate about my hatred for dogma as I am. Dogma fails to investigate… I do not consider what I write here as dogma, because I invite scrutiny.. Though scrutiny may be bad for business I ain’t afraid of competition.
Yet the jealous wife-beater type ethic of this so-called god of israel… throws hissy fits when he sees competition. So do I yet I am not so insane as to turn someone into salt or drown you in a sea because you are in competition with me.
To investigate is the essence of still being a living creature… without the ability to think criticool of our surroundings we are mere non-sentient creatures doing the bidding of some meglomaniaCAL entity.
