"Walk in the world with awareness, and you will find that the roughness of life cannot touch your inner being."
According to Osho, 'not touching the ground' isn't levitation but a metaphor: he wears the shoes of awareness. Awareness cushions you from the world's roughness, so you move through life without being pulled down by ego, drama, or identification. It's simple presence, not miracle—walk in the world, yet remain inwardly untouched.
It’s like wearing special shoes called awareness: you still walk on the ground, but life’s dirt and bumps don’t hurt you because you’re calmly paying attention and not getting stuck.

- Helps you stay calm and non-reactive amid stress.
- Prevents over-identification with emotions, roles, and opinions.
