OSHO: The Philosophical Frog and the Centipede


silence expressed in words

presents

Philosophical fangs and a hundred feet

… one of the fables of Aesop.

One hundred feet

he was doing the morning walk.

So one hundred feet is one hundred feet.

The frog looks at it,

can not trust their eyes,

Winking eyes

see again …

one hundred feet!

How do you manage it?

Which rises first,

then the second,

then the third,

then the fourth …?

One hundred feet!

Do you forget the number?

you shall be confounded at your feet

and you will fall.

She rushes to him,

cast,

He forbids one hundred feet and asks,

“Uncle

I do not want to hinder you in the morning walk,

but a very philosophical question

I was born into the mind,

which I can not solve.

I’m just a frog, I know.

Only you can help. “

One hundred and fifty says, “What’s the problem?”

The frog explains,

“This is the problem:

I saw your hundred feet,

I counted;

and the problem is

how do you do it? “

One hundred and fifty said, “I never got this over.

Will try

to see how

I have achieved it.

I never thought about it. I’ve never really seen him down

and I did not count my feet.

You are great,

you’re math

and philosophers! “

One hundred pounds tried,

and you can

to visualize what might have happened.

He crashed immediately,

all his hundred feet

confused with each other.

He was very angry with the frog and said,

“Do not ever ask any such questions.

Keep your own philosophy for yourself!

My Idiot –

I got it

all my life

not only I,

millions of hundredths

they do it miraculously.

No one has fallen like me.

But now I’m afraid:

you have

raised such a question in my mind

how if that

do not get rid of this question. “

I may not be able to walk at all.

Now tell me how to get rid of this question.

The frog said,

“I do not know.

I am also confused.

I asked you because

an experienced person, a hundred-pound old,

and goes out every morning in the morning walk;

if you can not solve it, how can I do it?

I’m a jerk I’m just a frog. “

I do not know what happened

with that one hundred feet later, but

I can imagine that his whole life should be mumble.

Occasionally the question

must have been reminded,

“One hundred feet!

Do I put the right foot in the right place? “

Life has its own ways.

When you start managing everything,

you will overthrow it.

Leave her life free.

For love, leave freedom

and do not be guided by solid ideas.

Try This!

Do not start with the idea that love is everlasting or never lasting.

Try it and you will know what it is like.

The criterion of what is not true is not taken from others.

These are the teachers who are ruining all of mankind.

They show you how to walk,

which foot the first and the second,

and if you put it in another rank you are a sinner,

you will fall to hell.

Hell is too far away – you will fall down here
