Enlightenment is not something fancy. It has nothing to do with experience. Any experience is a come and a go. It is not eternal. Being on the path you have many experiences but you are in a misunderstanding because you are clinging to them.
If only it would stay forever then I am enlightened!
But you can't hold on to experience. It is the nature of experience, that it comes and it goes, it can't be otherwise. So when the experience leaves you and becomes only a memory in your bookstore, what you get out of that? Nothing. Oh! I had a Satori! But what do you get out of it? And where is it now?
Your tendency is to overlook what it points you to, whatever experience you could have. The experience always points you to what is the most ordinary and eternal. But you overlook.
What I do in intensive Satsang is point you to what I have come to know, by going through "investigations" I have created for you to see with your own authority what is true from the very root. So you don't need to sit all these years and hours in meditation, as I did. All that is needed is a certain maturity—you have been on the path maybe with different masters, you have tried many things, you have come to know the basic message that Osho (or other masters) taught us again and again.
Osho emptied our minds, talking about everything from essential truth to relative truth, philosophy, religion, even politics, you name it. He did that so well and this is how he exhausted our minds clearing out a lot of garbage. A lot of compassion is needed for what Osho did, it is the real work. What I do is nothing in comparison. I am really lazy, I just invite these people who have finally come to the end of the path, and push them over the cliff. I just give them a little push and they fall, that's all. Nice job, I like it. It is fun. It is maybe scary but there is a lot of laughter, and without a scare, how will laughter happen.
Osho always said, so many times he said it—"be a light unto yourself". How many people really have heard that? Be a light unto yourself. I heard it. The first thing he said is do not ever belong anywhere. Yes, I took sannyas, I wore the mala but I never belonged anywhere. I could not go along with any organization, it was just not possible.
I was on the highway, alone. I followed the ringing bells—be a light onto yourself. You have to be very illegal to be free. You can't belong anywhere. Be a light unto yourself, there you may walk in darkness but I am the light, Ho Ho Ho!
I keep sharing the Last Satsang because people do wake up. Even in darkness, there is light. Osho brought us towards the cliff. If you come to the edge of the cliff, it means you come to the end of your path. I want YOU to wake up! I do not want you to be a follower.
Each focused conscious body-mind organism needs to re-recognize enlightenment as if it has never ever happened before, with no idea in your mind. Because any idea is in the way and whatever you may have heard before about enlightenment, you have listened from the wrong vision, that's why you have tried to become that. You have never heard what Buddha spoke, you are listening with a wrong vision, you hear something else and it can't be understood. When I accidentally entered and recognized enlightenment, I was so surprised, it was definitely different from anything I ever understood or thought of, surprising—surprising. In a different way beautiful than what you think beautiful is. And with that recognition, I knew that this is what I have always been looking for.
