Ask Osho!

When does the feeling of expectation drop utterly from within a sannyasin-disciple?

Synthesized from Source outcome

"Expectation drops the moment you realize that life’s promises are mere mirages, and in that clarity, the Divine reveals itself in the here and now."

According to Osho, expectation drops utterly the instant a sannyasin directly sees, through lived experience, that life’s promises are mirages—goals forever receding like the horizon. With this total seeing, hope collapses by itself; no suppression is needed. Then the “world” born of expectation dissolves, and the Divine already surrounding you is revealed here-now.
When you truly realize that chasing things will never finally satisfy you, expectations stop by themselves and you notice the sacredness already here.
Why this matters practically
- Ends compulsive chasing, reducing anxiety and disappointment.
- Frees attention for present-moment awareness and gratitude.
- Opens surrender and trust, deepening meditation and love.
