What is right mindfulness?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Right mindfulness is the art of witnessing each moment without judgment, allowing awareness to dissolve the mechanical habits of the mind and reveal the intelligence of compassionate action."
According to Osho, right mindfulness is a choiceless, nonjudgmental awareness—a lucid, continuous remembering of oneself in each moment. It is witnessing thoughts, sensations, and actions without identification or suppression, rooted in right view and compassion. Such alertness dissolves mechanical habits, aligns intention, effort, and concentration, and opens a silent, spacious presence where intelligent action, not reaction, naturally flowers.
Pay kind, alert attention to whatever is happening right now, without judging it or getting lost in it.
