1468- Not religion but religiousness!
------------------------------
I like how Osho managed to salvage the core of the word "religion"/true spirituality...by separating "religious" from "religion".
Religious being the alive impulse...the living essence, and religion being the dead exoskeleton left behind once the life has moved on.
Separate Christ from Christianity...Buddha even from Buddhism. Religiousness is not a dead thing like a belief or an image, but the very living essence of stripping off all the conditioning and meeting existence itself as a lover!
