What is God's intention in making us act?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Life is a divine play, where existence unfolds in joy for its own sake, free from intention or hidden plans."
According to Osho, God has no intention at all in making us act; intention belongs to shopkeeping and ego. Existence is divine play—overflowing energy expressing, building and dissolving like children with sandcastles—joy for its own sake. Saints mirror this, living each moment as complete, where means and ends coincide. Life’s purpose is playfulness, not a hidden plan.
God isn’t running a project; life is like a child’s game played for fun, not to get something.
