    Osho,

    How are you?

    I am the same…and you, also, are the same.
    That which changes is not our real face, is
    not our soul. That which does not change –
    neither in life nor in death – that alone is our
    reality. We ask people, “How are you?” We
    shouldn’t, because in the very asking we
    have embraced the transitory: childhood,
    youth, old age, birth, death.

    You know that there is something within you
    which was the same in childhood and was the
    same even when you were not yet born. So
    much water has flowed down the Ganges, but
    you are standing on the bank and you are
    still the same. Tomorrow you will be seen no
    more…then, too, you will be the same. Forms
    will be new, shapes will be new – perhaps
    you may not even recognize yourself. Names
    will be new, identities will be new, your
    clothes will be new, and yet I say, you will be
    the same. You have always been the same,
    and you will be the same forever. If you like
    you can call this eternal, everlasting ancient-
    ness “godliness,” or if you want you can call
    this your is-ness – many waves coming and
    going, but the ocean remaining the same....
