Where does bliss come from if neither I nor you are doing anything to create it?

outcome
"Bliss is the fragrance of existence that blooms in the silence of nondoing, where the ego dissolves and grace flows freely."
According to Osho, bliss is not produced by you or the master; it is grace—the ever‑present fragrance of existence. It flowers only in nondoing: when effort, expectation, and the ego cease, and you rest here‑and‑now, open and receptive. In the state of no‑self (anatta), all boundaries drop and grace naturally flows through you; existence itself celebrates.
Bliss is like sunlight already shining; you feel it when you stop trying to grab it, drop your “me,” and simply open your heart right now.

- Letting go of striving and results softens ego and reduces stress.
- Simple practices—silence, breath awareness, surrender—grow receptivity.
- Acting from openness (not ego) brings ease to work and relationships.
