According to Osho, inner silence is hard today not because life is fast, but because we’ve lost contact with our inner stillness. Mechanization gives surplus time, which, without inwardness, breeds restlessness, insomnia, and chronic exhaustion. We ‘kill time’ with distractions instead of using it to turn within. Meditation restores contact with the inner source, revitalizing life beyond work’s pace.
The problem isn’t a busy world—it’s that we ignore our inner quiet and waste free time, so we feel tired and noisy inside.
