What is the nature of God?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"God is not an object to be known; He is the very essence of your being, revealed through a burning thirst that transforms the chaff of the mind into pure gold."
According to Osho, God is not an object or a set of facts but your very reality - known only by direct, love-like experience. 'Knowing about' God is mere information; to know God demands a burning thirst that consumes the mind's chaff, revealing the pure gold within. When God becomes your first priority, the inner flame clarifies, and God is realized, not thought.
God isn’t a thing in a book; it’s your real self, found when you want it so deeply that everything pretend falls away.
Why this matters practically
- Shift from collecting beliefs to a sincere, burning longing for truth.
- Drop distractions so the inner 'chaff' burns and clarity emerges.
- Trust direct experience over second-hand opinions or doctrines.
