Ask Osho!

What is the meaning of the journey in life?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Life is not a puzzle to be solved but a living mystery to be celebrated; drop the search for meaning and embrace existence as poetry."

According to Osho, the life-journey has no conceptual 'meaning' to be solved; life is not a puzzle but a living mystery—the end itself, not a means. Seeking purpose guarantees frustration. Drop the utilitarian demand for why, and meet existence as poetry: celebrate, love, dance, and experience. In presence and openness, the journey fulfills itself beyond answers.
Stop trying to figure out why you’re walking; enjoy the walk and let the mystery sing to you.
