What is meant by listening to your inner voice when we only have the voice of the mind?

To listen to your inner voice is to transcend the noise of the mind and embrace the silent guidance that arises from the emptiness within; in that stillness, you find the path that is naturally right and beautiful.

— Osho
According to Osho, listening to your inner voice means not following the mind—which is society’s conditioning—but relaxing into inner emptiness (sunya). This “voice” isn’t words but a silent urge that arises when you are open and available. From this nothingness guidance comes effortlessly and never misleads; acting from emptiness is naturally right, beautiful, and a benediction.

Don’t follow the noisy thoughts you learned; get very quiet inside until a gentle, wordless pull appears, and let that guide you.
