What happens after experiencing deep pain and emotional turmoil?

The freshness after deep pain is not a cleansing; it is the moment you cease to create the valleys of your own suffering and embrace the richness of the present.

— Osho
According to Osho, the post‑turmoilfreshness’ isn’t a cleansing by pain; it’s the brief gap when you stop creating the valleys of greed, jealousy and self‑condemnation. These lows persist only as long as you choose them. Learn to live the present moment in its richness—like Ryokan absorbed in sunset and moonlight—and the cycle of darkness and relief simply ends.

You feel clear after pain because you briefly stop making the mess; stay present and the rollercoaster fades.
