What is the basis and ground of divine favor?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Divine favor is not a reward for the deserving; it is the natural flow of existence that graces those who align with its immutable law. When the ego dissolves, what arrives is prasad, a gift of grace rather than a personal achievement."
According to Osho, ‘divine favor’ is not God’s partiality but the impersonal grace of existence operating through immutable law. The Divine has no special interest; it is perfectly impartial. When ego drops and one aligns with this law, receptivity happens—then what comes is prasad, not personal achievement. Effort prepares; grace descends without ever breaking the law.
God doesn’t pick favorites; when you let go of ego and live in tune with how life works, help naturally comes.
Why this matters practically
