political revolutions dont change anything, only an individual spiritual metamorphosis changes your consciousness, your silence, your being

# data[].attributes.description
Political revolutions have never resulted in the changes they promised. Real change can according to Osho only come from a personal rebellion, a rebellion based on "yes" -- yes to existence, yes to nature, yes to yourself. Humanity has been guided by traditions which are all life-negative  the results of endless wars, a planet in danger and a humanity losing direction are obvious results of these traditions. Only a total affirmation of life, in an absolute yes to nature can bring a new earth and a totally new humanity into being.Rebellion is a very silent, individual phenomenon that will go on spreading without making any noise and without leaving any footprints behind. It will move from heart to heart in deep silences.

"For five thousand years the politician and the priest have been in the same business."In this provocative volume, Osho invites us to look through his microscope and examine not only the profound influence of religion and politics in society, but also its influence in our inner world. To the extent we have internalized and adopted as our own the values and belief systems of the powers that be, he says, we have boxed ourselves in, imprisoned ourselves, and tragically crippled our vision of what is possible.From Occupy Wall Street to the Arab Spring, from the election of the first Black president in the United States to the appointment of a new pope who promises to use St. Francis of Assisi as a role model (following endless scandals involving child abuse) the roles of priests and politicians in our public life have recently captured the attention of our times, often just initiating another round of hope and subsequent disillusionment.In other words, wittingly or unwittingly, we keep digging ourselves deeper into the mess we are in.A new kind of world is possible  but only if we understand clearly how the old has functioned up to now. And, based on that understanding, take the responsibility and the courage to become a new kind of human being."You have to be aware who the real criminals are. The problem is that those criminals are thought to be great leaders, sages, saints, mahatmas. So I have to expose all these people because they are the causes. For example, it is easier to understand that perhaps politicians are the causes of many problems: wars, murders, massacres, burning people. It is more difficult when it comes to religious leaders, because nobody has raised his hand against them. They have remained respectable for centuries, and as time goes on their respectability goes on growing. The most difficult job for me is to make you aware that these people  knowingly or unknowingly, that does not matter  have created this world."

How Can Meditation Solve Life Problems or Prevent Wars?

# data[].attributes.description
There are three kinds of problems - those that you create  they are almost ninety per cent of the problems of your life. You create them and you go on saying that you dont want them. Ninety percent of the problems simply disappear when you are in a meditative state  because you can see. And by seeing, you stop creating them. Ninety per cent will be solved; nine per cent will not be solved by your meditation but will be dissolved because they will not concern you at all. Seeing that it has nothing to do with you, that it does not arise in you, you have transcended it. One per cent remains. It has nothing to do with you or with others  that one per cent is part of existence itself.
