Ask Osho!

What is happening during a cataclysmic event?

Synthesized from Source definition

"In the midst of chaos, remember that the external world is merely a reflection of the eternal patterns within; turn your gaze inward to find the timeless reality that remains untouched."

According to Osho, so-called cataclysmic times are not unique; they’re the age-old human drama repeating—wars, politics, greed, fear—magnified by the ego’s need to feel special. Nothing truly new is happening outside; forms change, patterns persist. Don’t squander energy on hysteria; turn inward, discover the timeless reality within, and rest while the earth shakes.
Big scary events are just the same old human mess repeating, so instead of freaking out, look inside where your real, calm self doesn’t change.
