Ask Osho!

What is the relationship between unconsciousness and total awareness?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Unconsciousness breeds a restless mind filled with questions, while total awareness unveils life as an ever-fresh mystery, allowing questionlessness to blossom into the stillness of samadhi."

When you’re asleep inside, your head fills with questions; when you’re fully awake inside, questions stop and life feels peaceful and magical.
Why this matters practically
- Shifts you from problem-chasing to direct, joyful living.
- Encourages practices that quiet the mind and deepen awareness.
- Reduces anxiety by trusting mystery over compulsive answers.
