Synthesized from Source
definition
"Liberation is not the escape from life, but the return to your own being, where stillness reveals the spontaneous joy of existence and the indivisible oneness we call God."
According to Osho, liberation from the cycle of birth and death doesn’t mean avoiding another life; it ends all coming and going. It is returning home—being utterly present, awake, and rooted in your own being, free of hypnosis and imagined goals (even a projected God). In that stillness, spontaneous joy arises and the indivisible oneness of existence is realized—this living unity is what he calls God.
You stop running anywhere else, wake up to who you truly are right here, and then natural joy and a sense of one life appear.
