Life is a dance - OSHO

: OSHO

Life is a dance... in many
meanings life is a dance. 💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃
 First
– life is not constituted of
matter but of energy. And energy is never static – it is
always dancing. 💃✨💃✨💃💫💃💫
Now the physicists also say
that there is no rest in the
world – nothing like rest
exists. Everything is
moving, dancing. A
tremendous dance is on. The electrons are dancing, the neutrons are dancing, ✨✨💫⭐💫⭐🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
and from those invisible
electrons up to the greatest
star, there is continuous
dance. Only man has forgotten how to dance.
Trees are dancing in the
breeze, the birds and the
animals are dancing.

Only man has forgotten how
to dance – and by forgetting
the language of dance, man
has forgotten
the language of religion.
Dance is the basic language
of religion.

But the so-called religious
people are almost dead people... far, far away from
dancing. If you start
dancing in a church they will
think you are mad! One has
to be serious in a church.
One has to go
into church with a long face.
To laugh loudly in a church
will look like a sacrilege.

Man has created
pathological religion. Rather
than religion making man
healthy, man has created pathological religions just like himself. So I want to bring
the dimension of dance
back.
Here, this is going to be your
very focus:
 💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃
dance as much as you can...
sing! And don’t take things
seriously – take it easy. It is
fun to be alive and it is fun to pray and it is fun to meditate.

So concentrate on the word
’fun’, and remember, the more that you can enjoy life,
the closer you are
to god. If you can celebrate
this moment you are in god!
 💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃💃
Through celebration one
reaches into the very
innermost core of existence.
It happens in dance
more easily than anything
else. 💃 In dancing there is
more possibility that you will
be lost. When you are lost, god is. When you
are, god disappears. Both
cannot exist together.

The relationship is almost
like darkness and light. The
room is dark – you bring light
in. The moment
you bring light in, the
darkness is no more there..💃
🏜🏜🏜🏜🏜🏜  I was reading an old sufi
story – a parable – about a
very ancient cave. The cave
had never known any light – it was so dark,
and it was hidden so deep in
a mountain. The sun started
feeling very
sorry for the cave. He would
come every morning and
would knock – but the cave
wouldn’t listen. 🏜🏜🏜🏜🏜

One day he knocked
unusually loud and he said to
the cave, ’What are you
doing there for centuries
and centuries? I come every
day and I bring such tremendous beauty and
colour and light and love
and life and warmth – and
you continue hiding there!
What are you doing there?
 
Come out! Just for
once, just for a change,
come out and see what is
happening outside. It is no
more night. There is
no need to hide!’ 💃🏜🏜🏜🏜

The cave could not believe it.
She had never heard anything about light, colour,
warmth, love, 🏜🏜🏜🏜
life. She had always been
there deep in the darkness.
She laughed and she said, ’I
don’t trust.
Whosoever you are, don’t try
to befool me’

But the sun insisted. And just to see whether it was true –
very unbelievingly, in great
doubt, in a
tremendously sceptical mood
– the cave came out. It was true, and it was really
wonderful – and
she had been missing for
centuries and centuries!

She was very thankful and
she said, ’Now, I listened to
you – you listen to me. Come 🏜🏜🏜🏜
in. You see my
deep darkness too – you
may not have ever seen it. I
cannot offer you anything
else. I know only
one thing and that is
darkness. Come in and have a taste of it as I have tasted.
As I accepted your
invitation, accept mine.’
 🏜🏜🏜🏜🏜🏜🏜🏜🏜
The sun came in... and there
was no darkness. The cave
could not believe it. She
said, ’What has
happened? It was there – it
cannot disappear. It has
always been here, for
centuries and centuries.
What has happened?’
 The sun laughed and he
said, ’When I am there, the
darkness cannot be – we
both cannot exist
together. Darkness is my
absence.’ 🏜🏜🏜🏜🏜

Man is the absence of god.
Man never meets god,
remember! When the
meeting happens, man is
no more there – only god is
there.
  It happens with the death of
man, with the disappearance
of man. And this possibility.... 💃💃💃💃
I have looked into all
possibilities. This possibility
of disappearance is more in
dance than in any other
activity that man can become
engaged in. It is the simplest
and the most
spontaneous door to the
divine.
 
So pay more attention to
dancing,  💃💃💃
