Can someone who has indulged attain understanding in this lifetime?

Indulgence does not block realization; it is unconsciousness that does. Engaging with full awareness transforms every experience into a path toward freedom and deeper understanding.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source outcome
Yes; what matters isn’t that you indulged, but that you learn to stay awake and watchful while it happens, so craving loses its grip.
Why this matters practically
- Cultivate moment-to-moment attention to stay conscious in peak moments.
- Watch sensations, thoughts, and urges; awareness weakens craving and fear.
- Turn ordinary experiences into practice, moving from compulsion to clarity.
