"Emptiness is not an idea but a state of being porous, allowing existence to flow through you; when you drop your inner hardness and trust life, the 'you' dissolves into the whole, revealing the bliss of openness."
According to Osho, emptiness isn't an idea but a state of being porous—like a hollow bamboo—so existence can move through you unhindered. Drop the inner hardness born of fear and the illusion of separateness; stop fighting life and choose the lover's way of trust and participation. When you relax, merge, and allow, the 'you' dissolves into the whole, and this empty openness flowers as bliss.
Be soft and open like a pipe so life can flow through you; stop fighting and trust, and peace and joy appear.
