Core Insight:
According to Osho, disappointment is not in the world; the world is neutral. It comes from hope: egoic demands that the future match our desires. Drop personal hope and the urge to win; surrender like a wave moving with the ocean. Align with existence's inner order, and defeat dissolves; spontaneous joy, enduring "lamps" of hope, and effortless victory arise on their own.
Stop expecting life to obey your wishes; relax and go with the flow, and disappointment fades while natural happiness shows up by itself.
