A.R. Rahman quotes Osho in a fairly recent CNN IBN Interview.
Music has got something in it which is unexplainable.
We are all filled with knowledge;
we are all filled with things, facts and stuff;
we have the internet;
we know facts and figures and other things.
And I think somewhere they put a screen on your wisdom,
a screen on your divine knowledge insideSomewhere Osho is saying that,
‘You use knowledge and switch it off
and put it away when you don’t need it’.
I think it is bang on.
It is absolutely right.We need to hear our internal voice
or we get carried away with information now and
intellect and all that stuff….We need to switch it on and switch it off when you don’t need it.
