Have we met in a past life?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"What matters is not the past, but the courage to meet each other in this moment, free from the illusions of memory and mind."
According to Osho, past-life meetings are irrelevant—and flattering fantasies of the mind. We haven’t even truly met in this life, because you keep escaping behind ideas, ceremonies, and knowledge. What matters is meeting now: risking immediacy, dropping the mind, becoming childlike and innocent, and looking directly. That existential encounter—not ritual or memory—is the real initiation and the doorway to enlightenment.
Forget past lives; meet reality and the master right now with a fresh, childlike heart and no ideas.
