outcome
"When you accept life in all its beauty and absurdity, the trivial fades away, revealing the wholeness that has always been within you."
According to Osho, you lose yourself in 'trivial' things because judgment divides life into beautiful versus idiotic, creating tension that seeks substitutes. Observe urges without condemning; see how they temporarily relax you or compensate for unmet early needs. With humor and total acceptance of life’s thorns and flowers, learn authentic relaxation and witnessing—then compulsive trivialities naturally fade as wholeness returns.
You get stuck in small habits because judging makes you tense; kindly watch them, relax, and they lose power.
