Core Insight:
According to Osho, life feels heavy and joyless because you were conditioned by anti-life, sacrificial ideals that glorify seriousness, condemn the body and pleasure, and make you live for causes and 'others' while neglecting your inner freedom. Joy returns by reversing this: begin with yourself, meditate, be 'selfish' enough to flower, savor the body and world, and let fulfillment overflow naturally into sharing.
