Osho on Nonbeing

Nonbeing

In the dance of existence, the inquiry into nonbeing falters, for to seek a knower implies a lingering self; true nonbeing transcends knowledge, dissolving both the question and the seeker into the boundless stillness of existence.

Osho's perspective on Nonbeing

Who knows nonbeing and on what basis can it be known?

 definition

"Nonbeing cannot be known by anyone, for the moment there is a knower, nonbeing ceases to exist. When knowing and the knower dissolve, the question itself vanishes into silence."

If someone is there to know nothingness, it isn't nothingness—so the question doesn't make sense.
