"Drop the self-inflicted suffering; it is a neurotic barrier, not a bridge to enlightenment. Embrace celebration, love, and joy, for in gratitude and delight, awakening flowers."
According to Osho, drop all self-inflicted suffering—it’s a neurotic barrier, not a bridge. Enlightenment comes through celebration: love, dance, creativity, and a healthy, joyful savoring of life. Refuse the conditioning of the joyless who glorify pain; stop torturing yourself and allow naturalness, song, and play. When you live in gratitude and delight, energy turns from domination to creation, and awakening flowers.
Stop hurting yourself and enjoy life—sing, dance, love, and be grateful; joy opens the door to awakening.
