How can a sadhak overcome obstacles on the path of spiritual growth?

Obstacles on the spiritual path are not external; they reside within you. Turn your attention inward, embrace your natural energies with awareness, and watch them transform into love and compassion.

— Osho
According to Osho, obstacles are inside the seeker; the path is inward. Stop asking and start seeking: turn attention to yourself. Neither indulge nor suppress natural energies (sex, anger, fear); bring total awareness to them. Awareness is alchemy—through meditation, unconscious drives transform into brahmacharya, love, compassion, fearlessness. Progress stepwise through the chakras/bodies, beginning with muladhar; once the first center is transformed, higher potentials open.

Look inside and, with gentle awareness, turn your urges and emotions into calm, love, and strength—instead of fighting or following them.
