Osho: Boredom and Jealousy

Boredom is an indication of sensitivity. Boredom is the consciousness of repetition.
Either have no consciousness, then you cannot feel the repetition, or, have so much consciousness that in each repetition you can see something new. These are the two ways to get out of boredom.
Be more watchful of your jealousy. When it arises next time, rather than getting angry, close your doors, sit silently, sit in meditation and watch your jealousy. And I’m not saying repress it, because tat is again doing something. People are either expressive or repressive, and both ways are wrong. I’m not saying you can just drop it right now. You will have to meditate over it. Whenever it possesses you, meditate over it. Slowly, the meditation will create the distance between you and the jealousy.

To be a monk or a nun is very easy, but to love and not to be jealous, to love and not to be possessive, to love and let the other have all their freedom, is really a great achievement. Only then will you experience love and its fragrance.
