According to Osho, happiness and love are impossible without enlightenment—but enlightenment isn’t otherworldly; it means being ordinary, aware, and total, accepting your nobodiness and dropping ambition. Misery is the shadow of ego’s drive to be somebody. When you relax into naturalness and the present, striving ceases, bliss arises, and love—only possible here and now—flows.
No—real happiness and love happen when you stop trying to be special, accept being a nobody, and just be present.
