How can I be accepting and creative with the concept of 'neither this nor that'?
Synthesized from Source
practice
"Embrace the chaos of 'neither this nor that,' for in the stillness of confusion, true creativity is born and the old self dissolves."
According to Osho, the way to be accepting and creative with 'neither this nor that' is to drop the very urge to accept or reject and let the mind’s pendulum stop in absoluteness—tathata, suchness. Enter the confusion fully; allow it to deepen into chaos without clinging. In that non-dual, mindless space, the old identity dies and authentic creativity spontaneously arises.
Don’t force a yes or no—let things be, even if it’s confusing, and real creativity will grow on its own.
Why this matters practically
- Ends inner struggle by stepping out of the yes/no tug-of-war.
- Transforms confusion into fertile ground for insight and originality.
- Encourages spontaneous, authentic responses instead of forced attitudes.
