What happens when one experiences great nothingness during self-inquiry?

Embrace the great nothingness in self-inquiry, for it is not the end, but the gateway to your essential self and the freedom beyond fear. Remain a witness to the void, and you will discover the deathless center within.

— Osho
According to Osho, encountering great nothingness during self-inquiry marks the right path: the ego’s death and the dawning of your essential self. This emptiness isn’t negative—it is the threshold to fullness, freedom, and the third eye’s non-dual vision. Remain a witness; you are not the void. Move through it alertly and you’ll discover the deathless center, where fear dissolves.

When you feel a big inner emptiness, your old ego is falling away—keep calmly watching and it turns into deep, fearless wholeness.
