"When you drop your concepts and meet each moment with the freshness of a child, the ordinary transforms into the extraordinary, revealing the infinite light and fragrance of life."
According to Osho, we go blind to life’s mystery because thought, memory, and “scholarship” cloud open eyes; our past and future imaginings form a curtain over the present. Mystery is regained by stillness and not‑knowing: drop concepts, suspend naming, meet each moment freshly—like a child—listening, touching, and silently being with what is. Then the ordinary reveals infinite light and fragrance.
Stop letting your thoughts and old ideas get in the way, and look at what’s here now with fresh, quiet eyes—then wonder returns.
