725 – Osho on happiness
Happiness depends on unhappiness. Bliss is transcendence: one move beyond the duality of being happy and unhappy. One watches both; happiness comes, one does not become identified with it.

588 – Where the mind is without fear
Where the mind is without fear
And the head is held high
Where knowledge is free
Where the world has not been broken into fragments
By narrow domestic walls
Where words come out from the depth of truth
Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection

090 – Space in my head and heart
This morning I had an argument with my husband. He was complaining that there was no space in the house. He prefers to practice his sadhana downstairs and I practice upstairs.
