According to Osho, feeling like an outsider arises when second-hand consolations—especially the idea of God—collapse, leaving a raw emptiness. This gap is a blessed beginning: misuse it and you create angst; enter it meditatively and it becomes a door inward. With awareness replacing belief, a pillar of consciousness grows, transforming alienation into intimate belonging; you feel at home with trees, stars, people—the whole cosmos.
When old comforting beliefs fall away, you might feel alone, but if you look inside quietly, that emptiness turns into a warm feeling that you belong to everything.
