What is man?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Man is the seed of the Divine, a living prayer to dissolve the ego and flow into the boundless ocean of the Infinite."
According to Osho, man is the seed of the Divine, a living prayer to dissolve the ego and transcend all limits. True humanity is the urge toward the boundless—the courage to walk alone, inquire rather than believe, and flow like a river into the ocean of the Infinite. Man’s essence is self-transcendence: the capacity to go beyond oneself into Buddhahood, both glory and agony.
We’re here to grow beyond our small ‘me,’ seek truth for ourselves, and unite with something bigger than us.
