Nobody or Somebody? You are nobody. You are born as a nobodiness with no name, no form. You will die as a nobody. Name and form are just on the surface;deep down you are just a vast space. And it is beautiful, because if you are somebody you will be limited. It is good that God doesn’t allow anybody to be somebody;if you are somebody you will be finite, limited,you will be an imprisoned being. No,God doesn’t allow that. He gives you the freedom of nobodiness –infinite, nonending. But you are not ready. To me, enlightenment is all about this phenomenon : to recognize, to realize, to accept the fact that one is a nobody. Suddenly you stop trying the impossible. Suddenly you stop pulling yourself up by your shoelaces. You understand the absurdity of it–and you stop. And laughter spreads over your being. Suddenly you are calm and collected. The very effort of wanting to be somebody is creating trouble. OSHO
