How does the need for approval and acceptance from others resolve?

“

You are already accepted by existence, carrying the divine signature; drop the need for approval and turn inward to enjoy your own being.

Core Insight:
According to Osho, the craving for approval isn’t solved but seen through. Simply recognize its foolishness: everyone serves their own ego, so no one can truly validate yours. Flattery only manipulates. You’re already accepted by existence—created perfect, carrying the divine signature. Drop begging, turn inward, enjoy your own being, and live your destiny; in clear awareness, the hunger for approval falls away by itself.
You stop needing others’ thumbs-up by seeing it’s a silly game and remembering you’re already okay inside, so you just be yourself.
Why this matters practically
- Frees you from manipulation and people-pleasing.
- Redirects energy to authentic choices and inner joy.
- Builds stable self-worth not dependent on others’ opinions.
