Is the effect of direct grace everlasting, and can it lead to ultimate attainment?

outcome
"Direct grace is not a mere stepping-stone; it is the ultimate flowering that occurs only when the ego has vanished, marking the irreversible completion of your journey."
According to Osho, direct grace isn’t a stepping-stone but the flowering that occurs only at ultimate attainment, when the ego has completely disappeared. Until then, the ego blocks grace. Because attainment is the final state after which nothing remains to be reached, the descent of grace is coextensive with that irreversible completion—its effect is abiding, not transient.
Grace comes only after the ego is gone and you’ve already reached the final goal, and it lasts as that very state.
Why this matters practically
- Stop chasing spiritual fireworks; dissolve ego through awareness and surrender.
- Gauge growth by less egoic reactivity, not by 'grace experiences.'
- Relax striving; trust maturation—grace arrives when you’re ready.
