Why does life seem futile?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Life is a neutral canvas; if it feels futile, it is simply a reflection of how we choose to live. Through meditation and conscious choice, we can transform the ordinary into the extraordinary."
According to Osho, life itself is neither meaningful nor meaningless—it is a neutral canvas. If it feels futile, the error lies in our way of living and in expecting a ready‑made meaning. Learn the art of living: choose consciously, cultivate meditation, and create your own colors. With meditation, stench turns to fragrance, deserts reveal oases, and life flowers into significance.
Life isn’t broken; it’s a blank page—through meditation and wise choices, you write the story you want.
