Ask Osho!

What does it mean for Krishna to want Arjuna to disappear?

Synthesized from Source definition

"To truly choose is to dissolve the false self, allowing the hidden consciousness to flow freely toward liberation, like a river merging with the ocean."

According to Osho, when Krishna wants Arjuna to disappear, he means the vanishing of Arjuna’s ego-bound personality—his doubts, ignorance, and sick mind—so that the hidden consciousness can flower and move, by any fitting path, toward liberation, like a river reaching the ocean. Krishna unveils all paths without choosing; Arjuna must choose, and in true choosing the false ‘Arjuna’ dissolves into the supreme.
It means Krishna wants Arjuna’s stubborn “me” to fade so his real self can flow into peace, like a river into the sea.
Why this matters practically
- Helps you see doubts and ego as temporary noise, reducing anxiety and confusion.
- Encourages choosing a path that fits your nature instead of chasing the one “right” way.
- Aims at dissolving the false self, bringing clarity, freedom, and effortless action.
