What is the phenomenon of celebration?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Celebration is the spontaneous fragrance of your being, a natural state that emerges when you drop the mask of misery and remember your true self. Life is a divine play, and joy is found in the act of self-remembering, independent of circumstances."
According to Osho, celebration is the spontaneous fragrance of your own being—your natural state—recovered when you drop the false mask of misery and remember yourself. Life is leela, divine play, not seriousness. A master only mirrors your original face, provoking this remembrance; the joy is yours. Wherever self-remembering happens, there is Kaaba/Kashi: song, dance, freshness—celebration independent of circumstances or persons.
Celebration is what naturally appears when you remember your true self and let go of sadness—life is a playful game, and a master just helps you see your own joy.
