Was Arvind's experience of shunya the quest for truth?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"The real search is not about who attained what; it is about whether you can enter shunya now, for in that emptiness, all questions dissolve."
According to Osho, asking whether Arvind’s shunya was the quest for truth misses the point; truth cannot be certified through another. Inquiry about others breeds words, authority, and endless regress. The real search is personal: can you enter shunya now? When emptiness happens to you, questions about who attained what become irrelevant, and reliance on gurus and secondhand claims naturally drops.
Don’t worry about Arvind—find emptiness in yourself, and the truth becomes clear without needing anyone’s approval.
