Drop the mind to discover reality from "summary" of The Secret of Secrets by Osho
To discover reality, one must let go of the mind. The mind creates illusions, it distorts reality. It is like a cloud covering the sun, preventing the light from shining through. When the mind is dropped, reality becomes crystal clear. It is like removing a veil that has been obscuring the truth. The mind is a complex web of thoughts, beliefs, and conditioning. It is constantly chattering, never allowing us to see things as they truly are. It is like a noisy neighbor that keeps us from hearing the beauty of silence. When we silence the mind, we are able to hear the whispers of truth. To drop the mind is not to suppress it or fight against it. It is simply to let go of its grip on us. It is to stop identifying with its constant stream of thoughts. It is to be a witness to the mind, rather than being caught up in its drama. When we are able to observe the mind without getting entangled in it, we can see reality with fresh eyes. Reality is not something that can be understood intellectually. It is not a concept that can be grasped through logic and reason. Reality is something that must be experienced directly. It is something that can only be known through the heart, not the mind. When we drop the mind, we open ourselves up to the truth that lies beyond words and concepts.- We come face to face with the mystery of existence. We are able to see the beauty and wonder that surrounds us at every moment. We are able to connect with the essence of life itself. In dropping the mind, we discover the truth that has been waiting for us all along.
