outcome
"When the fifth body awakens within you, the cycle of rebirth in the lower bodies ceases; you transcend, and your being enters a new dimension beyond physical existence."
According to Osho, if the fifth body awakens while one is alive, rebirth in any of the first four bodies does not occur. Awakening and the fifth body are one; earlier bodies are dropped, and the question of 'which body' applies only up to the fourth. After the fifth, being unfolds without those bodies; the only 'birth' is a non-physical entry into the sixth body.
If you truly awaken to your fifth inner body, you don’t have to be born again—you just move on to a subtler level without returning.
Why this matters practically
- Refocuses practice on awakening now, not on astral or heavenly attainments.
- Eases fear of death by showing awakened life ends compulsive rebirth.
- Directs attention to witnessing and awareness over collecting experiences.
