"The world teaches that losing one's mind is madness. This is not the whole truth, because no madman has ever lost his mind; in reality, the madman is lost in his mind – his mind has become a jungle, and he cannot find his way out of it, in order to emerge. It is not that he has lost his mind, he is lost in his mind. He is more in his mind than ever before.
There is more mind in a madman than in you. Your mind is not so uncontrolled, not so vast, not so fast; it is ordinary, manageable. The madman is lost in immense, boundless thoughts, passions, dreams.
So that principle that 'losing one's mind is madness' is not true; it needs to be changed. Losing oneself in the mind is madness.
And if you understand this, then health is simply defined: come out of the mind into openness, into silence, where no thought, no desire will disturb you.
You are simply a pool of silence, without even a ripple – that is health.
Osho"
