“All the buddhas of all the ages have been telling you a very simple fact: Be — don´t try to become. Within these two words, be and becoming, your whole life is contained. Being is enlightenment, becoming is ignorance." Osho”

“If you know your being, there is no question of becoming. All that you could have ever imagined to become you already are. You are gods who have forgotten who they are. You are emperors who have fallen asleep and are dreaming that they have become beggars. Now beggars are trying to become emperors, in dreams they are making great efforts to become emperors, and all that is needed is to wake up!" Osho”

“If all it took to become enlightened were to sit and meditate, then all frogs would be Buddhas.”

“We work very hard to have what Buddha gave up to become enlightened. Does that mean we are benighted?”

“A man becomes a Buddha the moment he accepts all that life brings with gratitude.”

“Enlightenment is not about becoming divine. Instead it's about becoming more fully human. . . . It is the end of ignorance.”
