VACILLATION Mind is vacillation, mind is either/or, mind is always in that space of to be or not to be. If you really want to grow, mature, if you really want to know what this life is all about, dont vacillate. Commit, involve! Involve yourself with life, get committed to life, dont remain a spectator. Dont go on thinking whether to do or not - Should I do this or that? You can go on vacillating your whole life, and the more you vacillate, the more trained you become in vacillation. Life is for those who know how to commit - how to say yes to something, how to say no to something decisively, categorically. Once you have categorically said yes or no to something, then you can take a jump, then you can dive deep into the ocean. People are just sitting on the fence. Millions of people are fence sitters - this way or that, just waiting for the opportunity to come. And the opportunity will never come, because it has already come, it is there! My own suggestion is that even if sometimes it happens that you commit to the wrong thing, even then it is good to commit, because the day you will know it is wrong you can get out of it. At least you would have learned one thing: that it is wrong, and never to get into anything like that again. It is a great experience; it brings you closer to truth. Why do people vacillate so much? - because from the very childhood you have been told not to commit any mistakes. That is one of the greatest teachings of all the societies all over the world - and very dangerous, very harmful. Teach children to commit as many mistakes as possible, with only one condition: dont commit the same mistake again, thats all. And they will grow, and they will experience more and more, and they will not vacillate. osho vacillation [vaesileiš*n] noun zibanje, guganje, nihanje; figuratively kolebanje, oklevanje, neodločnost, omahljivost
