What is the relationship between the feeling of remembering God and the forms that arise in the mind?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"True remembrance of God arises not from the forms we imagine, but from the awakening of the witnessing consciousness within us."
According to Osho, name and form are mind-made; to remember God as a seen form is to be ensnared in imagination. Real remembrance happens by turning from the object to the subject—the witnessing consciousness, the seer within. Emphasize the one who sees, not the image seen. God is the very witness; when awareness flowers as 'I am,' remembrance is direct and true.
Don’t chase pictures of God—notice the quiet awareness that’s noticing everything; that’s the real meeting with God.
