"True God-experience needs no declaration; it is your very being that proclaims it. Surrender the chooser and let existence act, for both the shout and the silence are His will."
According to Osho, true God-experience needs no self-declaration; your very being proclaims it. If a declaration happens, it is God speaking through you—spontaneous, unchosen. If you decide to announce it, it's the ego’s subtlest madness. Surrender the chooser; let existence act. Sometimes it shouts, sometimes stays silent—both are His will.
If you truly meet God, you won’t need to say it—God will speak through you; if you feel like boasting, it’s just your ego.
Why this matters practically
- Avoids spiritual ego and self-deception.
- Cultivates humility and surrender to what naturally arises.
