                                            Osho meets China
We always react from our past. It has always
worked, so we think it is going to work in every
situation, but one day a situation arises where your
past is simply irrelevant; it doesn’t work. That is real
crisis…and real opportunity too.

The Chinese word for
crisis – they don’t have a
word, they have pictures – the Chinese ideogram for
crisis is beautiful. It consists of two small pictures, of
two small ideograms: one means
danger, the other
means
opportunity. Crisis is danger and
opportunity; it will depend on you. If you go on
reacting out of the past you will be committing
suicide. It is dangerous. If you have the intelligence
to see that the problem is new so the answer has to
be new – old answers won’t do – if you have that
intelligence to see, then it is great opportunity.
Passing through the desert you will attain to great
maturity and great integration. And remember, this is
how it happens every time...
