What is purushartha?

Purushartha is the conscious choice you make in the present, the power to redirect your destiny; every decision now plants the seeds for your future.

— Osho
According to Osho, purushartha is your present, conscious effort—the freedom to choose now. While prarabdha is the momentum of past decisions you must undergo, purushartha is the fresh decision-making power that can redirect your course. Each choice in the present seeds future destiny; act aware, and your prarabdha transforms.

It’s your power to choose and act right now, which plants the seeds for tomorrow.
