Not everybody is longing to be enlightened. They are enjoying all the senses, enjoying physical existence. Sounds of music also leads to soundless music. Seeing beauty also nourishes. Good food also brings joy. Life is there to enjoy.

Osho said “Hold my hand, go wid me. REJOICE!”
Osho`s brother is also saying, “Hold my hand, go wid me. REJOICE!”

It is like those Russian dolls that you keep opening and then another one pops up.

Osho was the elder brother. His large shoulder wings may show that he had attained a deeper state of enlightenment, a ‘beyond enlightenment’. Perhaps Osho`s brother felt like it was his duty to carry on the family business.

Frank, thank you for expanding on that; frankly, that didn’t cross my mind at that time.

Thanks, SS.
Osho is still the best, just watching this video…
What a difference to his brother! XXX

Some meditators and mystics talk about hearing a sound a bit like “Ommmmm”.

Not like a Tibetan horn but similar to humming perhaps.

Osho`s brother, also in the business, explains more:

But Tan, what would you or anyone get by an explanation of something you rightly intimated with “It is not something theoretical, not something philosophical, it is something existential”?

I simply love to see it like this: We are all part of this mystery, if we come to know it, or not. And that´s very good news after all.

And to pour out cups and cups of tea, again and again, ever compassionate invitations to listen to the sound of Silence is a very loving offer, isn´t it?

My own experience is that the very existential stuff, I can´t speak, but have to live it. My resistance, however, is very, very noisy.

And a reminder of that I found in that quote of a cup of tea, making that ´thread – tea´. For all of us.

Madhu

P.S:
The translation “soundless music” is in my ears as correct as it can be, if using language at all….

MOD:
NOT SURE WHAT YOU MEAN BY “And a reminder of that I found in that quote of a cup of tea, making that ‘thread – tea.’” PLEASE EXPLAIN.

Thanks, Kavita, Frank and Satyadeva.

Osho said: “Hari Om Tat Sat: the divine sound – that is the truth… It is one of the mahavakyas, the great sayings which have been embedded in the hearts of the mystics since eternity. It is not something theoretical, not something philosophical, it is something existential.”

What puzzles me is that he always stops there. He never explains it like he explains enlightenment and so on…He always says this sound is everything and millions of people listen to it.

But “soundless music”? Maybe a bad translation?

Cheers!
