Don't be an intellectual Blind...
Osho famously critiqued blind belief, stating "belief cannot destroy doubt. Belief can only repress doubt. A blind man can believe in light, but that does not mean he knows light". He emphasized that true knowledge comes from direct experience, not blind faith.
Only a blind man can easily define what light is. When you do not know, you are bold. Ignorance is always bold... knowledge hesitates
People say love is blind because they do not know what love is. I say unto you, only love has eyes; other than love, everything is blind.
To be frank with you, which usually I am not... I don't know who I am. Knowledge is not possible here where I am. Only the knower is left, the known one has disappeared... only the container is left, the content is no more.
I do not believe in believing. My approach is to know.
Whatever you are doing, don't let the past move your mind; don't let the future disturb you. Because the past is no more, and the future is not yet. To live in the memories, to live in the imagination, is to live in the non-existential. And when you are living in the non-existential, you are missing that which is existential.
When a religion is dead, it becomes ritualistic. When a religion is alive, it remains spontaneous.
The only thing worse than being blind is having sight but no vision.
