the surrender of living dangerously

Life can only be lived dangerously. ~Osho

meanwhile, the greatest security and insurance and wages and possessions rest in sleep


human beings have created such an illusion of living from our monomaniacal concern with egoic survival that life itself has been forgotten

survival has become such a process of securing the dream-state character that the natural element of life living itself has been lost

The self does not know how to live. The self only knows how to protect the self. So the self doesn't believe life can live itself.

To see that the self does not exist is to see that life will live itself within this flower of its intent within the season of its loving.


Such is the surrender of living dangerously. What does life want to do with 'me?' If to act or to die, so be it. Whichever, life will be.
