The Mystic Experience
- "Blessed souls, I do not know why you have come here. Perhaps you too, do not know. Most of us live in such a way that we are not aware why we are living, where we are going and why. (...) We do not know why we are alive. And we are not aware of what we do -- so much so that we are not conscious even of our breathing.
- But I well know why I am here. And that's what I want to share with you.
- Man's quest continues through lives, and it is after the endeavor of countless lives that he gets a glimpse of what we call bliss or peace or truth or God or moksha or nirvana -- call it what you like, although there is no word that can say it. One attains to it after many many lives. And all those who seek it think that they are going to enjoy completely after they have found it; but they are very mistaken. (...) After coming in contact with the supreme, a new kind of work begins. In fact, whatsoever is significant in life brings great joy and bliss when you find it, but it is much more joyous and blissful when you share it with others." (Osho, Ch. 1)
