I Speak to Help You to Be Silent
"I speak to help you to be silent. I
say something so that you can go beyond words. I use words to help you
to go into wordlessness. It is just like having a thorn in the foot:
with another thorn you pull it out. Your mind is full of words, so many,
and so much chattering – yakkety-yak, yakkety-yak – it goes on and on.
But then people became intoxicated with my words. That was not my
purpose. I continuously insisted, "Don't be concerned with my words. Be
concerned with my silences, the gaps between the words, the gaps between
the lines."
Osho, The Last Testament, Vol. 1, Talk #20
