According to Osho, suffering is not a prerequisite for transformation; it arises from resistance, ego, and unconsciousness. Pain is natural, but suffering is your interpretation. Bring watchfulness, acceptance, and love to what is, and pain becomes insight rather than bondage. Do not seek austerity or self-torture; simply be present, and whatever life brings is alchemized into understanding and freedom.
Pain can happen, but we suffer only when we fight it—watch it gently and it turns into learning.
