Does attainment of the seventh chakra and samadhi mean a lack of interest in humanity's problems?

outcome
"Samadhi does not diminish your concern for humanity; it transforms it into a mature compassion that addresses the root causes of suffering rather than merely treating symptoms."
According to Osho, samadhi doesn’t kill concern for humanity; it births the only mature concern. Before awakening, helping springs from inner chaos and treats symptoms; after ego dissolves, one sees and heals root causes in consciousness—greed, aggression, fear. Start by ordering your inner world—like wearing shoes instead of carpeting the earth—then action becomes compassionate, precise, and truly transformative.
Fix your inside first so you can truly help the world by solving causes, not just cleaning up effects.
Why this matters practically
- Focus on inner clarity to avoid causing more harm while trying to help.
- Shift efforts from symptoms (poverty, wars) to roots (greed, aggression).
- Make service compassionate, efficient, and sustainable.
