Osho - Trust the water

Apr 24 eve


Osho
Belief, doubt and fanaticism
U swim in the water- u go to the river and swim. What do u do? U trust the water. A good swimmer trusts so much that he almost become one with the river. He is not fighting, he does not grab the water, he is not stiff and tense.  If u are stiff and tense u will be drowned.

If u are relaxed the river takes care. That's why whenever somebody dies, the dead body floats on the surface. The alive person was fighting. The river was the enemy. He was afraid, he could not trust.

Trust means u r not fighting; surrender means u don't think of life as the enemy but as the friend.  Once u trust the river, u suddenly start enjoying. Tremendous delight arises; splashing or just floating or diving deep. But u are not separate from the river, u merge, u become one.

Surrender means to live the same way in life as a good swimmer swims in the river. Life is a river. Either u can fight or u can float; either u can push the river and try to go against current or u can float with the river and go wherever the river leads u.
