Ask Osho!

Is the goal of awakening awareness still the same?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Cultivate awareness, for it is the lamp that dispels the darkness of separation, revealing the ever-present reality that has always been within you."

According to Osho, the goal is not to reach God directly—there is no method to remove darkness—but to kindle the lamp of awareness. Methods exist only for awakening awareness. When awareness lights up, the sense of separation vanishes; you do not attain God, you recognize the ever-present reality that was hidden. Therefore, cultivate awareness, and realization unfolds by itself.
You cannot push out darkness; just switch on your inner light, and what is real is already there.
Why this matters practically
- Focus on awakening awareness (e.g., meditation) instead of chasing God or results
- Reduces struggle and anxiety; clarity arises naturally
- Brings presence into everyday actions, improving choices and relationships
