What should I do to overcome feelings of ugliness and suffering?
Synthesized from Source
practice
"Turn your perceived ugliness into a source of strength, for it is not the label that defines you, but how you choose to embrace and transform it into connection and service."
According to Osho, if you feel ugly, stop suffering over it and use it—turn the label into leverage. Masses identify with the ordinary; even 'ugliness' can become public appeal (e.g., politics). Suffering springs from comparison with aristocratic ideals of beauty and intelligence. Accept differences, quit self-pity, and channel your condition into connection, service, and intelligent action.
Don’t be sad about looking ugly—use it where it helps, because many people trust someone who looks like them.
