This post was very beautiful. I agree that the body/mind should definitely be in harmony. I was actually reading Osho and he had been talking on the same thing. Just being yourself, what can be considered good and bad qualities, not lying to yourself or to others. Its human nature to be in good shape and to also be in bad shape, although a play on words its merely who you are. So why try and change who you are.

Osho uses the example of the rose bush as it says, “I have this compulsion, I always grow roses!” It’s not a compulsion, it’s just the way you are, his response would be, “With my blessing, go on growing roses, as big of roses as you possibly can, and as many as you can and forget all that compulsion nonsense! You are not caught up in anything. This is You!”

I thought that to be very beautiful of how we work as human beings and to go along with your text. We are so caught up in trying to perform or to be something we are not, strive to always be good, but the fact of the matter is, who are we fooling, we are not always “good”. I use these terms loosely because I don’t know of any difference between the too, it merely is what it is. The only way that good and bad comes in is the humans natural reaction to label something out of need for psychological order.

So be as the rosebush, and Be As You Are! Coming to terms with yourself is definitely something to be aware of and I’m glad you and I are able to have talks (as close we’ll get to a talk on the net) without having to worry about stepping on each others toes.

Anyway, thanks again for the post, its very insightful and full of love.
