What do I really want?

definition
"Beneath all desires lies the yearning to know your true self, and in deep relaxation, you discover that wanting transforms into a natural responsiveness to life."
According to Osho, beneath all surface desires you really want to know who you are—and that is found only in deep relaxation and let-go. When self-knowing dawns, the ego’s separateness and its craving to ‘be responsible’ dissolve; you feel organically one with existence. Then wanting turns into effortless responsiveness: life cares through you, like roses blooming on a bush that belongs to the whole.
You truly want to relax enough to discover who you are, so life can move through you without the stress of personal craving or control.
