Ah, so that's it! Zen is an alarm clock that wakes you from sleep

Osho always said that the trouble with modern man is the tendency to make simple things complex. He believes that it is difficult for "achievers" to understand Zen - it will happen "by itself" more quickly, once, suddenly. The main... thing is to stop fanatically striving for enlightenment and to try to find it in the little things. And then one fine day you will say: "Ah, so that's it!"
In this series of talks Osho offers you a selection of classic zen stories. You will see that great efforts are not needed to attain enlightenment. Osho gives one piece of advice: to "wake up" from automatic actions to a conscious life that (you will be surprised!) is full of joyful and happy moments every second. You will learn about the tools of Zen and how to use them to act decisively, with clarity and awareness, to live each second to the fullest, and to transform the most mundane activities into something unique, singular, and wonderful. For this is enlightenment.
"Zen is not philosophy. It is an alarm clock, waking you to a new life - amazing and joyful. For centuries you have been asleep. You have forgotten what awareness is. It is time to wake up."
OSHO
