What are the implications of taking the easy route in life?

Choose the path that nurtures your inner peace; if it demands sacrifice of joy for gain, turn back and seek clarity instead.

Core Insight:
According to Osho, the ‘easy route’ is conscious simplicity: keep the basic aim—happiness, peace, and joy—always in view, and choose only those options that preserve it. Don’t worship business or struggle; think clearly, list choices, weigh benefits and difficulties, then pick the path that sustains inner ease. If a course demands ‘poison’—sacrificing peace for gain—turn back; worry wastes energy, clarity acts.
Pick the choice that lets you stay peaceful and happy, and if success asks you to lose that, don’t do it.
Why this matters practically
- Reduces anxiety by turning vague worry into clear, written choices.
- Aligns work and money with your real aim: peace and joy.
- Saves time and health by refusing paths that cost your inner wellbeing.
