How can an ordinary unenlightened being find enough energy to stay in awareness as much as possible?

“

Awareness is not something you need to strive for; it is your natural state, and when you stop fighting life, divine energy flows effortlessly through you.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source practice
Core Insight:
According to Osho, you don’t need extra energy for awareness—awareness is natural and effortless. Energy is squandered in unawareness: thinking, anger, anxiety, and maintaining ego. Stop fighting life, relax, and go with the river; drop the inner conflict. Then divine energy flows through you, and sustained awareness arises by itself.
Like floating downstream, staying aware takes no extra effort—just stop struggling with thoughts and relax.
Why this matters practically
- Reduce wasted energy by noticing and dropping ego-driven struggles.
- Choose relaxation over tension to let awareness sustain itself.
- Align with what’s natural, preventing burnout and deepening meditation.
