What is the significance of the cosmic circle in relation to atoms and material existence?

definition
"Material existence is merely the outer ring of the cosmic circle, guiding you back to the silent center where separation dissolves and the mystery of life unfolds."
According to Osho, the 'cosmic circle' is the whole, an indivisible continuum where energy moves from center (consciousness) to circumference (matter) and back. Atoms belong to the circumference—the most crystallized, peripheral expression of the same life-force. Material existence is only the outer ring of this circle; its significance is to point you back to the silent center where separation dissolves and mystery becomes living experience.
Everything from atoms to stars is one circle: matter is the outer edge, your awareness is the center.
Why this matters practically
- Prevents getting trapped in materialism by reminding you of a deeper center.
- Encourages meditation to move from the noisy periphery to inner stillness.
- Fosters a sense of unity, reducing fear and isolation.
