Osho - overcoming vs transcending

Apr 2 aft

Today took action. Shared when I feel the need to. Shared with my regional boss on the situation here. Hoping he can resolve the situation here.

The secrets of yoga
Overcoming is different from transcending. Transcending comes through understanding and overcoming comes from through struggle.
So an egoistic person who tries to overcome his ego will become humble, but now the ego will be there in his humility, in his humbleness. And u cannot find more egoistic people than humble people.

When u transcend, u have understood the foolishness, the idiocy of the ego; u have understood the illusion of it, the baseless desires of it.
And then it drops on its own accord - not that u drop it, because if u drop it then u will attain another ego.
It drops though understanding. Understanding functions like a fire; it burns the ego.

Soul
Mmm..like my issue with meat.
I didn't try to overcome and infact I resisted it.
But once understanding comes, my compulsion for meat stopped.
Although I still drink soup and sauce with meat but I just don't eat the meat due to digestion.

On the morning leisure breakfast, my most important part of the day. My priorities has changed to more time for my sadhana so I can get 5 to 6 hours sleep instead of 4 to 5 hours sleep. Now driving to work no longer sleepy.
