According to Osho, yes—worldly happiness attracts precisely because it is transient. The nearness of loss makes passing pleasures feel urgent and precious, pushing the mind to “enjoy now.” Yet this same transience inevitably turns joy into frustration and sorrow; misery follows like a shadow. Religion, therefore, doesn’t preach detachment from impermanence itself but from the suffering that chasing the fleeting always brings.
We want things that don’t last because they might vanish, but chasing them hurts us—so learn from the hurt, not the hurry.
