Into what should the power of the ego be transformed?
Synthesized from Source
outcome
"Transform the energies of the ego creatively, for it is not power to be wielded but a veil to be dissolved, revealing the pure awareness of the Self."
According to Osho, ego is not a power to be transformed at all; it is a state of ignorance, a smoky veil over the soul. Transform the energies it provokes (anger, sex, greed) creatively so the ego weakens. With true knowing, the ego dissolves, and in its place appears the vision of the Self—God, pure awareness.
Don’t try to fix the ego; wisely use your energies so the fake “I” melts and your real self (like God inside) shines.
Why this matters practically
- Stops wasted effort polishing the ego; redirects you to awareness and right use of energy.
- Practical focus: purify body, thoughts, and feelings; channel anger/sex/greed creatively to loosen ego.
- Leads to peace and authenticity as the craving “I” drops.
