A man made his way to the Zawia, the place where those enlightened assemble, to sit at their feet. He read about these dervishes who were instructed by their masters not to eat meat or smoke. Hence he wished to meet them.

The man was delighted to find that there was no trace of nicotine or animal protein on them who were at their ripe old age of ninety.

As he sat there savouring his bean curd soup, suddenly one person whispered, “Here comes the great master" Everybody stood up immediately as a sign of respect. The master smiled at the group and headed to his quarters. To the visitor's amazement, the man looked not more than fifty.

The visitor in wonderment asked, “How old is he? What does he eat?"

“He is one hundred and fifty years old!" I do not think if anyone of us will live up to his age.

“But of course he is allowed to smoke twenty cigars and consume three steaks a day, as he has gone beyond all temptations and frivolities"

Osho points out that when one transcends the state of duality, he transcends desires as well. He is thus not affected by passion any more. For such a man there is no goal and nothing to achieve. He just IS!
