"Deep gratitude arises when you let go of all forms and dissolve into the pure silence of existence, revealing the boundless compassion that connects us all."
According to Osho, deep gratitude flowers when you let even the beloved master’s image disappear in meditation. As the image dissolves into pure silence and nothingness, your consciousness turns upon itself; the whole existence opens, you feel nearer to the master than ever, recognize his compassion, and gratitude multiplies a thousandfold. True thankfulness is impersonal, arising from isness, not clinging to forms.
When your gratitude is so deep you can let go of the teacher’s picture in your mind, everything opens and quiets, and you feel even more thankful.
