Core Insight:
According to Osho, when your ecstasy triggers others' anger, don't retreat; deepen it. Let slanderers burn, forgive them, and ignore both blame and praise; never compromise your joy, for ecstasy is the ray to the divine. Keep dancing and singing; in time condemnation may turn to praise, but don't stop for either. Be the elephant, not the barking dogs.
If people get mad at your happiness, keep joyfully playing, forgive them, and don't stop for boos or cheers.
Why this matters practically
- Builds resilience to criticism and peer pressure.
- Avoids ego inflation from praise, keeping you centered.
- Keeps focus on inner growth and the divine, not on others' noise.
