What is creativity?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Creativity is the art of allowing the beyond to flow through you, a state of relaxed awareness where the ego dissolves and life becomes a harmonious dance with nature."
According to Osho, creativity is a paradoxical state of relaxed awareness—action through inaction (wei-wu-wei)—where you become a hollow bamboo, a passage for the Whole or God to flow. It is not personal doing but allowing; when the ego and overthinking recede, the beyond sings through you. In this surrender, life surpasses mere survival and acts harmoniously with nature.
Creativity is relaxing, dropping your ego, and letting something bigger use you to make the song, painting, or action.
