According to Osho, prayer is not a request to reach God but a transformative way of being that dissolves the ego so only the divine nature remains. Like a sculptor removing excess stone, prayer strips away the accidental roles, identities, and desires, revealing the original face within. It is continuous, like breathing: every act, such as rising, eating, and working, becomes prayerful, preserving the essential presence that is God within.
Prayer is like breathing while gently chipping off pretend labels so your real self—which is God—can shine through all day.
