According to Osho, non-possession is not a heroic renunciation but a natural shedding that happens when inner wealth—awareness and bliss—flowers. To Mahavira, jewels had become mere pebbles; value drained away as consciousness ripened. When you are inwardly full, things fall off by themselves; you don’t leave them, they are left behind. Thus non-possession expresses freedom, not loss, and varies by individual temperament—some stay in palaces unattached, others simply walk away.
When you feel rich inside, outer things stop mattering, so you drop them naturally instead of forcing yourself to give them up.
