    [Osho gives 'sannyas' to a seeker:]

    Just raise your hands, close your eyes, and
    feel utterly open. These hands are the
    gestures of openness. Feel receptive,
    because sannyas has to be received; you
    cannot take it, you can only receive it. It is a
    gift: you can allow it to happen. There is no
    need to grab it. The only need is to give way,
    to let it happen.

    Feel great energy showering on you, as if you
    are standing under a waterfall. Energy is
    splashing on you and the body starts swaying,
    the body starts feeling drunk. Go into it, and if
    something starts happening in the body, allow
    it.

    Tao is the name for that which cannot be
    named, a name for the nameless -- just like
    god or dhamma or truth or logos. These are
    not really names, but human helplessness. We
    have to call it something, we have to address
    it. Tao is one of the most beautiful names
    given to the unknown, because it is utterly
    meaningless. God has become very
    meaningful, hence it has lost significance...
