The secrets by Osho

Man tries to invent a self for himself but invented self will never be real.No possibility that invention will be ever real.The real has to be discovered thus we human need to discover ourselves;i.e knowing WHO AM I?
The invented self image is ego.The real self is not ego.The real self is emptiness;complete emptiness;silence of emptiness;joy of emptiness.
If we invent a self we need to ask others-to know and gather what they think of us.We are doing this our whole lives.That is why it hurts and we are afraid of peoples' disrespect.
