"The urge to leave arises from the mind's craving for 'more'; when you simply witness your restlessness, you discover that what you seek is already here."
According to Osho, the sudden urge to leave—even a community you love—arises from the mind’s endless craving for ‘more.’ When everything is present, the monkey‑mind invents escape. Don’t act; simply witness the restlessness without judging. In non-identification, the impulse dissolves, revealing that what you seek is already here. Leaving changes nothing—the mind follows you; stillness ends the mind’s rule and your real being dawns.
When you feel like running even though things are good, it’s just your busy mind; quietly watch the itch and it will fade.
