Unless you drop your personality you will not be able to find your individuality. Individuality is given by existence; personality is imposed by the society. Personality is social convenience. Society cannot tolerate individuality, because individuality will not follow like a sheep.
Individuality has the quality of the lion; the lion moves alone. The sheep are always in the crowd, hoping that being in the crowd will feel cozy. Being in the crowd one feels more protected, secure. If somebody attacks, there is every possibility in a crowd to save yourself. But alone? – only the lions move alone. And every one of you is born a lion . . . Osho
In the US today, we celebrate Independence Day. This is a great opportunity to explore and inquire into the nature of freedom itself and how to engage what’s TRUE in your own world.
As you take a look at the state of freedom on our planet today you may notice that there are many layers of engagement. Those of you that travel the path of consciousness know that your external world reflects your inner landscape. Where are YOU like a lion? How do you stand alone in what you know and roar your freedom into existence?
You are not here to conform, to make nice, to please your parents or your parish. You are here to stand at the edge of life’s cliff and BE the truth of your understanding. These are adventures undertaken in your ‘aloneness,’ without the cozy comfort of the familiar. It is an exploration of your inner fire and how you spark life all around you.
Roar, darlings! Alight your essence for the symphony of creation.
