Mystici & Metaforen

Osho Cartoon The Fourth Way

_6.gif "Mystici can only speak in vague words. [...] Words are not capable to express their vast experience, they are too small, hence they have to use vague words, symbols, metaphors, poetry, parables." 

"Whatsoever is being said here is metaphorical."

_6.gif "Don't become a victim of imagination."

"A metaphor has to be understood and dropped and for-gotten. A metaphor is dangerous. If you take it too seri-ously, you miss the point. A metaphor is only an indica-tor, it is a way of saying." 

"Many people are in deep murky waters because of this: they cling to the metaphor.

I talk about the inner light ~ immediately after a few days people start coming to me, they say: 'I have seen the inner light!' ~ they have found the roses in the other world. They don't exist there. Because of this metapho-rical language, many people simply become imaginative."

_6.gif "Pay attention to the witness; focus on the witness and not on the experiences. Howsoever beautiful, all experi-ences are dreamlike and one has to go beyond all of them." 

"And you have to come to a point where there is no ex-perience; only the experiencer sits in his abode silently
~ no experience anywhere, no object, no light, no flowers flowering, no-nothing."
