“

Drop the seriousness and let laughter be your guide; in that joyous spontaneity, the doer dissolves and non-doing unfolds effortlessly.

Core Insight:
According to Osho, stop turning 'no I' and 'no doing' into a project. Drop the mind’s puzzles and seriousness; nothing is needed but a good laughter. In wholehearted laughter, the doer and its tension dissolve, spontaneity emerges, and action happens by itself. Relax, be playful; non-doing and egolessness arrive when striving ceases.
Stop trying to get rid of the ‘I’; relax and have a real laugh, and the need to do anything falls away by itself.
Why this matters practically
