Osho wrote: “In a moment of meditation you suddenly see that you can move in two directions-either horizontal or vertical. The vertical consists of silences, blissfulness, ecstasies, the horizontal consists of hands, work, the world.”
Sacred Recognition
The western wind dropped away
Carrying her last exhale out to sea
Subduing blue-black chop,
Prostrating cliff-grasses.
Now the horizon could marry the sun.
She lay horizontal on sea stone
Between a day lost and one to come,
Shadow on the stone,
Listening to light fall down
Into sea-grass and sand
Wet with love
Green with loss.
She rose within that breath
Lifting her sextant
To meet first stars,
Bearing the graduated arc
Hefting its accurate weight,
To imprint her alchemical
latitude and longitude.
Osho also said: “The word enlightenment has nothing to do with genius, has nothing to do with intellect. It has something to do with discovering your real, authentic being. It is discovering God within you.”
