How can we be joyful and serene in the face of nuclear destruction?

Celebrate life now, for in the face of uncertainty, joy becomes our greatest rebellion against destruction. Dance, sing, and love, for it is in bliss that we find the strength to transcend fear.

— Osho
According to Osho, the sane response to possible nuclear annihilation is to celebrate life now—dance, sing, love, meditate—because tomorrow is uncertain. Misery breeds destructiveness; joy creates. By cultivating individual bliss and a global climate of laughter and prayer, we both live fully despite mortality and reduce the collective urge to destroy.

Since tomorrow might not come, enjoy, be kind, and sit quietly now—happy people don’t break things.
