Osho, also known as Acharya Rajneesh and Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh, claims that it is important to be aware when you are suffering. Depression is a mood disorder that makes one feel lonely and sad at all times. However, there are different ways in which depression affects different people. According to Osho, "Mind is almost like the ocean, waves upon waves. Some waves are higher, and between two waves there is a depression."

According to the spiritual guru, it is important to be aware when you are happy. Osho's three mantras include-- "Be happy and be aware", "Rejoice and be aware", and "Love and be aware." Having awareness when you are happy and when you are in agony is the very first step of the process of coming out of it.

5 Spiritual Quotes By Osho On Depression

- Experience life in all possible ways — good-bad, bitter-sweet, dark-light, summer-winter. Experience all the dualities. Don’t be afraid of experience, because the more experience you have, the more mature you become.

- Sadness gives depth. Happiness gives height. Sadness gives roots. Happiness gives branches. Happiness is like a tree going into the sky, and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth. Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously. The bigger the tree, the bigger will be its roots. In fact, it is always in proportion. That’s its balance.

- You feel good, you feel bad, and these feelings are bubbling from your own unconsciousness, from your own past. Nobody is responsible except you. Nobody can make you angry, and nobody can make you happy.

- In your agony you are alone; far away is the heart of the universe. Your agony has created the distance. So when you are in agony – it is human and once in a while it happens – remain alert.

- Depression is a contemporary phenomenon and it has come into being because now there is no tomorrow.
