We fuss so much about growing old.
Instead can we think about growing up?
If there’s one thing that humankind
uniformly obsesses over, it is age. Everyone wants to look younger. But few
people want to be wiser. Growing old is mandatory though. If we lay in bed for
a whole year, we would be older by a year more. But since growing up is
optional, many people gloss over that choice! Hear what Osho, the Master, has
to say about this. It is brilliant! “Our whole education is absolutely unaware
of the fact that growing up is a different process than growing old. Even
idiots grow old; only Buddhas grow up.” Growing up is not about knowledge and
qualifications. It is about going within, connecting with your source, your
core, your Self. When you delve deeper you will find value in the silence that
will greet you there. And the peace that you discover inside you, in that
silence, that peace makes you a Buddha.
So, idiot or Buddha? Make your
choice today!
