What is the struggle of human life and what is the goal of this struggle?

The struggle of human life is to transform possibility into reality, to evolve from mere existence into a conscious flowering of the divine within.

— Osho
According to Osho, the struggle of human life is to become truly human; we are born only as a possibility. Through conscious growth we complete the first birth. Then a second, inner birth opens—the flowering into the divine (dvija)—where one realizes Brahman. Humans can fall below or rise above; creativity, learning, and awareness turn possibility into humanity, and humanity into divinity.

We’re born as a chance, and by growing and waking up inside we become real humans—then, by deeper awareness, we can be “born again” into the divine.
