What does it mean to be God?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"To be God is to recognize your inherent divinity, not through striving or doing, but by resting in the present and embracing your true nature. In the silence of non-doing, the truth reveals itself: you are that."
According to Osho, to be God means recognizing your inherent godhood—your very being—rather than achieving it through practices or deeds. When all striving, becoming, and mental movement cease, in silent non-doing, the truth reveals itself: you are that (Aham Brahmasmi). God is the innermost nature, discovered by letting go of ambition and resting wholly in the present, content as you are.
Stop trying to become something; be still and you’ll see you already are what you’re seeking—God within.
