Learn to be in the present.
Withdraw your energy from the past. Don't waste your time in memories. What is gone is gone. Say goodbye to it and close the chapter.
What has not come yet has not come yet. Don't unnecessarily waste your time and energy in imagination, because no imagination is ever fulfilled. It is because of this that the proverb exists in every language: "Man proposes, and God disposes" because you imagine a certain thing in the future, and it is never so.
Withdrawing yourself from past and future, you will become a tremendously intense energy, focused in the present, concentrated in the present like an arrow.
Each moment being aware, alert, watchful, in the herenow, is the way not to miss the train. Every experience needs your presence here, this moment.
And this is a simple secret, but it opens the doors of existence, of all the mysteries, of all that is worth knowing, worth tasting, worth feeling, worth being.

This post reinforces my "disinterest" in whatever Osho teaches.
I have always believed, and would continue to believe that one should cherish their good memories and learn from the bad ones. Bad memories teach you lessons - lessons that teach you not to make the same mistakes again.
Past experiences are not worthless. Your past is as important as your present in determining if you conform to morality, humanity, ethics, love, friendship, rules of society,and what not not!
Oh btw, a very happy new year to you!
I agree that one shud learn from past experiences...but i strongly believe that one shouldn't linger on to the past. Past is gone..do learn from it but don't sit on it and cry on it...get up and move on..don't just keep on thinking about the past and forget ur beautiful present.
That's wat osho says...in this one atleast..Make Your Present Worthwhile...:)
A very happy new year..:)
TOUCHE.
