Ask Osho!

What is God and where is he?

Synthesized from Source definition

"God is not found in the heavens or in temples; he is the highest purity within you, waiting to be discovered through the blossoming of love and the light of awareness."

Core Insight:
According to Osho, God is not an external being or place but your own highest purity—the flowering of love and the luminosity of awareness within. Stop searching outside; turn inward. Befriend the witness in you, grasp the subtle 'thread' of consciousness through meditation, and follow it. As awareness deepens, that thread becomes a path to liberation: the Divine reveals itself as your innermost being.
God isn’t somewhere else; it’s the quiet, loving awareness inside you—notice it, follow it in meditation, and you’ll meet the divine as your own true self.
Why this matters practically
- Redirects the spiritual search from outer places and beliefs to inner experience.
- Offers a practical method: hold to the subtle thread of awareness (meditation) and let it strengthen.
- Nurtures love and clarity, easing fear, confusion, and dependence on external authority.
