Osho on Why do I experience the presence of the self in you when others perceive emptiness?

Why do I experience the presence of the self in you when others perceive emptiness?

When the ego dissolves, what remains is not emptiness but a vast radiance; your perception reflects your search, revealing the paradox of presence in absence.

— Osho
Synthesized from Source outcome
If you look for a 'me,' you see nothing; if you look openly, you feel a bright aliveness, because when the ego is absent, true presence shines.
Why this matters practically
- Notice how expectations shape what you perceive in people and situations.
- Drop the need to find a fixed self; meet life as presence, not personality.
- Practice silence/meditation to loosen ego and sense a deeper aliveness.
