Core Insight:
According to Osho, enlightenment is an utterly simple, natural, human awakening—so ordinary that the ego overlooks it. Because the ego craves heroic difficulty, religions rebranded enlightenment as an almost impossible, superhuman goal, stretching it across lifetimes and rituals to keep seekers hoping and priests relevant. In truth, nothing extraordinary is required: drop egoic striving, relax into simple awareness, and the 'attainment' is immediate.
