About this series · summary by Osho Live
In the discourse series "Main Mrityu Sikhata Hun," Osho delves deeply into the seemingly contrasting concepts of consciousness and stupor, exploring them as interconnected aspects of the same reality rather than polar opposites. By challenging the conventional dualistic perspective, Osho emphasizes that elements often viewed as diametrically opposed—such as light and darkness, sleep and wakefulness—are merely different intensities along a continuous spectrum. Through this lens, he highlights the fluidity of human experience, illustrating how what we perceive as deep unconsciousness is but a dim form of awareness and vice versa. Osho's exploration is multi-layered, extending this non-dual understanding to broader existential themes. He suggests that life and death, too, are not in conflict. Instead, they are transformative stages within the infinite flow of existence. This realization invites a radical shift in perception, encouraging the seeker to dissolve rigid mental structures and embrace the harmonious balance inherent in life's paradoxes. By understanding these gradations, individuals can cultivate a sense of unity, achieving a more profound awakening to the essence of being, where every experience is seen as a manifestation of the same singular, vibrant life force.

Know the Self inwardly; when the 'I' dissolves non-duality appears-God is revealed as 'what-is,' not a projection in things or temples and rites or dogma.
