What is the relationship between individual energy and the cosmic energy pool?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Your individual energy is merely a surface illusion; beneath it lies the underground stream that connects us all to the vast ocean of universal energy."
According to Osho, your so-called 'individual' energy is like water in a private well: it seems separate only at the surface. As kundalini awakens, you discover the underground stream linking all wells, and finally the ocean itself. Individuality (atman) dissolves into the universal energy (paramatman); the kunda is one cosmic pool from which every being draws.
Your energy feels personal, but going deep reveals it flows from the same vast ocean that powers everyone.
Why this matters practically
- Softens ego and a sense of separation, fostering compassion and cooperation.
- Encourages practice beyond “my awakening,” avoiding spiritual stagnation.
- Reduces fear and increases trust by sensing you belong to the whole.
