definition
"Thoughts are the clouds obscuring your sky-like essence; in meditation, when they cease, you discover the pure silence of your true being, a state of blissful 'nobodiness."
According to Osho, thoughts are the clouds veiling your sky-like being; in meditation, their stopping dissolves all dualities of right and wrong, shattering identifications. What remains is pure silence, a 'nobodiness' that is the ultimate peak—like entering paradise (Mount Sumeru)—where one simply is and rejoices.
