Osho on non existence
Lao Tzu Nonexistence & importance of Belly Breathing
Lao Tzu believes in nonexistence tremendously. He is the first to bring the utility of nonexistence to its ultimate glory.
Of course, he did not know about black holes, otherwise he would have talked about them.He was a simple man, living in a village. Living the simple life of a peasant, raw, simple, not very cultivated and civilized.
He was against civilization, he was for nature. He has only one simple simile: the wheel. He says, the nave of the wheel, the hub of the wheel is empty, but the whole wheel depends on it. It is called the nave of the wheel. Why? Because it is just like the nave that exists in man.
Just near your navel, the Japanese say, there exists a point called Hara. The Hara is the black hole in your body. Japan has discovered, following Lao Tzus idea, that somewhere in the body, death must have a home.
Death does not come from the outside, it is not an accident as people think. People say death is coming. No, death is not coming, death is growing within you; it is not that somewhere on life`s path, you meet death suddenly. If it were so, then methods could have been devised to avoid death, to deceive it, or not to go to that point where death waits for you, to bypass it, or to send
somebody else instead of you.
There would be such a possibility, if death were an outside phenomeon, happening to you from the outside. But death is carried within you like a seed. It comes into existence, when you come into existence, in fact it existed even before you. You have come out of it. Next Page
