Ask Osho!

Is what an individual does really done by God?

Synthesized from Source definition

"When the sense of 'I am the doer' dissolves, you realize that it is God alone who acts through you, for the personal doer is merely an illusion of the ego."

According to Osho, what an individual does is God's doing only when the sense of 'I am the doer' disappears. While ego claims authorship, action remains separate; when doing becomes a happening and the 'I' dissolves, God acts through you. In truth, even now only God acts—the personal doer is a dream sustained by ego; awakening is recognizing 'God alone is.'
When you stop thinking “I did it” and notice things just happen, it’s really God doing it.
Why this matters practically
- Lets go of ego and the stress of over-control.
- Encourages trust and effortless action aligned with life’s flow.
- Fosters humility and compassion by softening the sense of separation.
