According to Osho, when you sit serious and long-faced, you close yourself; the mind tightens, the heart contracts, and the living, playful transmission cannot reach you. Seriousness makes listening a duty and builds an ego-wall. Relax, smile, be playful—then energy flows, understanding penetrates, and transformation becomes possible.
If you sit grumpy and stiff, you can’t really hear; if you relax and smile, the message can enter your heart.
