OshoLife is a mystery and the first mysterious thing about life is that you can be alive and not have life at all. Just being born is not enough to have life. To be born is just the opportunity. You can use it to have life. You can miss it also and live a dead life. It will just look like life but there will be not alive current in you. Life has to be attained. Like a seed needs…
OshoDeal with the difficult while it’s still easy. Deal with the big while it’s still small. It’s all easy and small in the present. You are powerful enough to change it. But if you say I’ll see tomorrow, there is no hurry. I will see to the problem. The problem is growing and taking roots. You have been postponing for lives.

Man is born to achieve life but it all depends on him. He can miss it, he can go on breathing, eating, ageing… but it’s not life. It’s gradual death, 70 year long.
