About Walk without Feet, Fly without Wings and Think without Mind
These talks took place over a ten day period – a series of personal questions from seekers touching a wide variety of fundamental life issues, and an enlightened being’s profound, loving and, at times, humorous responses to them. Amongst the many subjects covered, Osho speaks on parents and children, trust and surrender, love and jealousy, sex and pornography; play and creativity, desirelessness, enlightenment and the belief in God.
Chapter Titles
Excerpt from Walk without Feet, Fly without Wings and Think without Mind
Chapter 3
“The moment you think, either you think of the past or you think of the future. It may be the immediate past, but it is still past – it is never the present, it cannot be the present.
“Thought needs space. And the present moment has no space in it. Thought creates the past and the future to live in. The bigger the past, the more easily thought can move; the bigger the future, again, the more easily thought can move. The present is not capable of giving that space for thought to move.
“The present moment is a moment of no-mind. Whenever you are in the present you don’t function as a mind. Your body is in the present but your mind is never. Your body is always in the present – that’s why the body is so beautiful and mind is so ugly. And, down the ages, you have been taught to be with the mind and against the body. That has been the greatest calamity humanity has suffered up to now. If a new humanity is to be, we will have to put things right – you have to be with the body and not with the mind.
“Use the mind, but never get identified with it. The mind is a good slave, but a very bad master. The body is wiser.”
