According to Osho, when a longing rises that is beyond pleasure and pain, you step off the coin whose two faces keep flipping. The oscillation between happiness and sadness ends, compulsion and dependency drop, and a quieter, choiceless joy appears. Such longing becomes prayer or meditation: a freedom where you relate without clinging, experience without seeking payoff, and suffering loses its covert attraction.
When your heart wants something deeper than feeling good or avoiding hurt, the rollercoaster stops and a calm, steady happiness remains.
