“Remember one very fundamental thing about life: Any experience that has not been lived will hang around you, will persist: ‘Finish me! Live me! Complete me!’ There is an intrinsic quality in every experience that it tends and wants to be finished, completed. Once completed, it evaporates;… incomplete, it persists, it tortures you, it haunts you, it attracts your attention. It says, ‘What are you going to do about me? I am still incomplete – fulfill me!’
Your whole past will hang around you with nothing completed, or learned if nothing has been completely lived. If everything is somehow bypassed, partially lived, only so-so, in a lukewarm way then, … there has been no intensity and no passion because you have been moving like a somnambulist or a sleepwalker. So that past hangs, and the future creates fear. And between the past and the future is crushed your present, the only reality.” www.osho.com
