The happening continues.
The happening is just happening (the Tao).
What is there to desire when it is known that this is all of it?
When one finds oneself as the nothing, the nothingness is found to be love.

Well no desire obviously if all desires become equal then the happening may as well be a person just mediatating, or sleeping or eating (to sustain body)...outside of that there be no wild thing because it provides no more desire than sitting and meditating?

This statement means the only desire the person will have is No Desire. Be clear here please.
It is all the same - it is just this.
This is what there is.
But this always looks and feels different. The texture of life is felt by the unchanging.

Meditation replaces Sex
Meditation is the stillness - it is the nothingness, emptiness, the peaceful background - to all appearances.
'Sex' is a word or concept that is in reality, touching, tasting, smelling, hearing and seeing. 'Sex' is really sensation happening in the moment. Sensation is an appearance that is known.
Sensation being known. The appearance is known by the still silent presence (which is meditation).
Your true nature is meditation - empty of things.

George Rodonaia's was assassinated by the KGB and spent three days in a morgue freezer:
"Dr. Rodonaia was killed by the KGB, pronounced dead, taken to the morgue for three days and returned to life during his own autopsy. Dr. Rodonaia was a psychiatric researcher who worked for the KGB and later became a dissident. He was a scientist trained in historical materialism and did not believe in God."
"George Rodonaia underwent one of the most extended cases of a near-death experience ever recorded. Pronounced dead immediately after he was hit by a car in 1976, he was left for three days in the morgue. He did not "return to life" until a doctor began to make an incision in his abdomen as part of an autopsy procedure. Prior to his NDE he worked as a neuropathologist. He was also an avowed atheist.

Four year old met his mother’s miscarried child in Heaven
"Colton, still 4 years old, told his mother “you had a baby die in your tummy didn’t you”, which completely shocked them both because they had never told him about their miscarriage. They asked him how he knew and he said that he met his sister in Heaven and she told him what happened."
"when Colton Burpo was four years he was having surgery in the hospital for a burst appendix. While he was in surgery he apparently had some sort of out of body experience...

"I had to die to learn how to live. I died for 28 minutes, and it was during this death experience that I learned how to live. There is life after death and it is not a place where spirits float around bored being nice. It is a real place."

I understand. But at the same time, I don't want to do nothing.
The concept of Lucifer as the “light-bearer” for the purpose of “enlightenment” is also inspired by ancient Egyptian mythology, Roman mythology, Greek mythology, Gnosticism and Western occultism, with a primary focus of the realization of “esoteric” or intuitive knowledge, while being attributed as the true way to salvation of the soul from the impure material world and eventual goal of ascension to the “divine being”.
Likewise, although the name itself or similar terminology of “Lucifer” is not used, this is also the fundamental spiritual belief and foundational premise for most all “Eastern” religions, such as Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, etc.
The GREAT DECEPTION
Rajneesh admitted, while under the influence of nitrous oxide, that there is no such thing as enlightenment. I cannot confirm this event through other contacts, but I assume Rajneesh was simply stating what U.G. Krishnamurti has said all along; that the storybook fiction we accept of a perfect enlightenment, full of infallible wisdom, is a big lie.
A powerful and expansive state of cosmic consciousness does exist in humans who achieve it, but the way this condition is described by the religious establishment is an egocentric fiction, contrived by spiritual leaders to control the masses for their own personal gain.
Rajneesh's (Osho's) books: Be warned that Rajneesh/Osho used words as a device to influence and control people, and he was not concerned with speaking the truth. In my opinion, less than 25% of what he said was actually fact, and his books belong in the fiction section of bookstores next to Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings. Much of his teachings represented a kind of self-serving spiritual pornography; a mixture of false ancient teachings and his own ambition motivated distortions. At his worst, Rajneesh came out with titles like "The World of Rajneesh and Autobiography of a Spiritually Incorrect Mystic". This is like a primadona television newsman who thinks that he is the news story rather than the important headlines of the day.

pure and utter illuminati BS new age propaganda for the sheeple
This has always been the modus operandi of the Deceiver... Satan's recipe: ? Take 10% truth, 20% probability, 20% possibility and mix with 50% lies... Line a scrying bowl with some snake oil and pour in mixture. Bake over long period of time (preferably generations), and serve to gullable public with some humor and logic. Make sure the container for the 10% truth that was added is hidden or destroyed (preferably)...and enjoy the resulting constipation of the unwary...
