According to Osho, the split between selfishness and altruism is false; life is one fabric. Your happiness depends on others’ happiness, so intelligent “selfishness” includes caring for the whole. Extreme egoism is like a cancer cell—self-destructive; compulsive self-sacrifice breeds misery and control. Drop choosing sides; from awareness, act in ways that nourish both yourself and others simultaneously.
We’re all on one team: helping others helps you, grabbing only for yourself harms you, and gloomy self-sacrifice harms everyone.
