How is growth possible without hope?
Synthesized from Source
outcome
"True growth blossoms in the absence of hope, where living fully in the present transforms hopelessness into a vibrant, desireless aliveness that allows life to unfold you."
According to Osho, growth without hope happens when you drop all hoping and live totally in the present; hope postpones life. True growth is a spontaneous flowering as the mind’s projections collapse: in utter hopelessness—freedom from hope—energy becomes awareness and joy, a fresh, desireless aliveness. Then you move with the whole, not private dreams, and life itself unfolds you, here and now.
Let go of wishing for a different future and pay full attention to now, and you naturally grow and feel alive.
