Osho tao the pathless path9/24/2023 Then one day, when you have sought in every direction, in every dimension, and nowhere have you found anything that you wanted, when your frustration is utterly total, in that very moment of frustration all seeking drops. In The Pathless Path, Osho, one of the greatest spiritual teachers of the twentieth century, comments on five parables from the Leih Tzu, bringing a fresh and contemporary interpretation to the ancient wisdom of Tao. Even a buddha has to seek and go astray and suffer. Seeking is a part, a part of attaining non-seeking. But to become a non-seeker one has first to become a seeker. "So the first thing to remember is that nobody has ever come home by seeking. You may be smiling but hidden behind are tears. You have hidden your cowardice by painting bravery on top of it. You may be pretending to be brave but deep down you are a coward. "You can pretend, you can deceive the whole world, but how can you deceive yourself? You will always know who you are. You are pretending that you are Alexander, pretending that you are Christ, pretending that you are a buddha, pretending this and that. Greatness will not be a real greatness – deep down you know that you are not great, deep down you know that you have practiced it, deep down you know that it is just on the surface, a mask. Nothing else ever happens in this existence except greatness – because it is out of God. Tao, The Pathless Path, Series 1 - In these talks on The Book of Lieh Tzu, Osho brings a fresh and contemporary interpretation to the ancient wisdom of Tao. It has been always there, it is your nature. Then you just close your eyes and it is there, the great horse is there.

When you become tired and frustrated with your seeking you drop all seeking to be good or to be bad. And they are rushing away from themselves. The bad ones have become criminals, immoral, and the good ones have become moral, saintly – but both are seeking. More information is not more knowing – and more knowing does not necessarily mean more information."The bad ones have gone seeking along the bad lines and the good ones have gone seeking along the good lines. He has more information but not more knowing. As far as your being is concerned he is the same as you. He is not more of a knower than you, the knowledge is not yet qualitative. Bertrand Russell of course knows more than you but the knowledge is quantitative. THE ULTIMATE SYNTHESIS God created Adam and the way man has taken it is that because God created man rst he is rst. There is nowhere to go, so what is the point of any way One has simply to relax and be herenow. There is no basic difference because the innermost core remains the same. Tao is a pathless path no way things are good as they are. If Bertrand Russell succeeds he is as happy as anybody else. If Albert Einstein fails he feels as frustrated as anybody else. "If you insult an Albert Einstein he becomes as angry as anybody else. You will find as ordinary and ignorant a person as any other. Just scratch a little and his knowledge will not be of any help. Scratch the man of knowledge and soon you will find ignorance coming out of him. If the knower himself is in deep darkness all his knowledge is just superficial, it cannot even be skin deep. You know science, you know things, you know the world – but you don't know yourself. TAO Tao The Pathless Path Vol 1 A series of 14 discourses Tao The Pathless Path Vol 1 by Osho. "First, unless you know yourself, all knowing is useless unless you know yourself, all knowing is only pseudo-knowing – you appear to know but you don't really know. "Before we enter this very symbolic and very significant parable, a few things have to be understood. We must have misunderstood the very nature of knowledge. Man knows much the knowledge has grown every day, and yet deep down man remains as ignorant as ever. 0 0 found this document not useful, Mark this document as not useful. 0 0 found this document useful, Mark this document as useful. It is as if he has made a big building and the foundation is missing. Save Save Osho - Tao the Pathless Path - Vol 1 For Later. Man knows many things but the fundamental is missing. "So the fundamental question is: What is the nature of knowledge? What is real knowledge? Man knows many things and yet remains ignorant. In this darkness, if frustration happens, what more can you expect? In this darkness, if you only die and never live, it seems logical. In this darkness, if failure happens, it is natural. We have not yet attained to the light of inner being which can enlighten our path.
