Ask Osho!

Is man born with suffering and what is his basic suffering?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Suffering begins the moment we are born, as we are thrust from the blissful womb into a world of separation, forever longing to return to that original harmony."

We start in a safe, quiet bliss in the womb, and when that safety is suddenly broken at birth, pain begins and we keep longing for that lost comfort.
Why this matters practically
- Recognizing separation as the root pain fosters compassion for yourself and others.
- Use meditation and awareness to reconnect with inner quiet instead of chasing outer fixes.
- Create gentler environments and transitions (softness, patience, calm) to reduce unnecessary shock.
