Will I be disillusioned again?

Disillusionment arises from projecting your fantasies onto me; when you embrace the emptiness of reality without expectations, you will find liberation in seeing things as they truly are.

— Osho
According to Osho, disillusionment happens because you project your ideas onto him; since he is ‘empty’—without ego—he becomes a screen for your fantasies. He will lovingly shatter those projections, which hurts. If you cultivate meditative, nonprojective awareness and drop all labels and expectations, you see reality-as-it-is—his nothingness—and then disillusionment ends.

You’ll feel let down if you imagine things about him; stop imagining and, through calm seeing (meditation), look at what is.
