What is the urge to create?

The urge to create is the divine knocking at your door; when you create, the ego dissolves and God flows through you.

— Osho
According to Osho, the urge to create is the first stirring of the divine—the presence of God knocking at your door. It is the birth of prayer: when you create, the ego dissolves and God moves through you. Therefore choose the new and unknown; follow the creative call. If this energy isn’t expressed creatively, it inverts into destructiveness. Creativity itself is religion and communion.

When you feel like making something, that’s the divine wanting to move through you—say yes and lose yourself in it, or the pent-up energy can turn messy and harmful.
