We come alone and we go alone.

We come alone and we go alone.

We come alone and we go alone. Between these two alonenesses we create all the dreams of togetherness – relationship, love, family, friends, clubs, societies, nations, churches and organizations.

Alone we come, alone we go.

Aloneness is our ultimate nature.

But in between these two, how many dreams we dream!

One becomes a husband or a wife, a father or a mother. One accumulates money, power, prestige and respectability…knowing perfectly well that you come empty-handed and you go empty-handed.

You cannot take a thing from here. Still one goes on accumulating, still one goes on becoming attached, more and more attached, more and more rooted in this world from where we have to leave.

Use this world as a caravanserai; don’t make a home in it.

Use it, certainly, but don’t be used by it.

There is no point in possessing anything because the moment you start possessing something you are possessed by it. The more you possess the more you are possessed.

Osho,
