Projections

Dec 15
The secrets of yoga by Osho
Communication is possible only if u have dropped ur fantasy world and the other dropped his fantasy world. Then two beings face each other - and they are not two, because the 'twoness' drops with the world of fantasy. Then they are one.


Soul
True.
But not easy.
This is similar to Osho tarot's Projections.

The man and woman in this card are facing each other, yet they are not able to see each other clearly. Each is projecting an image they have constructed in their minds, covering the real face of the person they are looking at.

All of us can get caught up in projecting movies of our own making onto the situations and people surrounding us. It happens when we are not fully aware of our own expectations, desires and judgments; instead of taking responsibility for them and owning them, we try to attribute them to others. A projection can be devilish or divine, disturbing or comforting, but it is a projection nonetheless--a cloud that prevents us from seeing reality as it is. The only way out is to recognize the game. When you find a judgment arising about another, turn it around: Does what you see in others really belong to you? Is your vision clear, or clouded by what you want to see?
