What happens when we offer salaam to the Sufis and write poetry?

Synthesized from Source outcome

"When you offer salaam to the Sufis, your ego melts away, and in their presence, joy and creativity blossom, transforming you into a vessel of true poetry."

Core Insight:
According to Osho, when you offer salaam to the Sufis—simply come close—their very presence colors you: your ego softens, joy and ecstasy surround you, and dormant capacities awaken. True poetry arises only when the 'someone' in you disappears; near Sufis, song, dance, and creativity bloom spontaneously, as in real satsang, which dissolves you yet makes you larger.
Being near Sufis is like walking through a garden—their fragrance makes you forget yourself, and real songs and creativity start to bloom.
Why this matters practically
- Choose uplifting company (satsang) to spark inner growth and creativity.
- Drop self-importance while creating; let the song write itself.
- Spend time in living presence to awaken dormant talents and joy.
