Can intellectual tension lead to the experience of satori?

According to Osho, intellectual tension can lead to satori only if it is pushed to its utmost peak and suddenly releases in a flash of understanding; partial tension is a hindrance. Equally, satori can arise in totally relaxed, playful dialogue or from any ordinary encounter—flower, pebble, laughter—whenever you are fully present. It depends on your availability, not the situation.

Yes—but only if your mind gets totally tight and then lets go into a clear ‘aha’; otherwise, just relax and be present, because satori comes from your openness, not special events.
