What is the pattern of human behavior in the search for fulfillment?

definition
"To seek fulfillment without honoring the natural hierarchy of body, mind, soul, and God is to invite chaos; each step must be fully embraced, for only then does true prayer and connection with the divine blossom."
According to Osho, fulfillment follows an intrinsic hierarchy—body, mind, soul, God. Each step must be fully lived; if you bypass one, life becomes discontinuous and you will be forced back to it. First satisfy bodily needs, then the beauties of art and mind; from there meditation matures the soul, and only then does authentic prayer/God flower. Attempts to start with God create artificial religion and inner conflict.
Take care of your body first, then enjoy learning and beauty, then meditate—only then can real prayer and peace grow; skipping steps causes trouble.
Why this matters practically
- Prioritize basics (food, rest, health) before spiritual goals to avoid frustration.
- Nurture the mind with art and learning; let music and beauty prepare you for meditation.
- Guide children step by step instead of imposing God-talk, fostering genuine, grounded spirituality.
