Why do spiritual saints speak a very difficult language?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Genuine insight needs no fog—real wisdom speaks simply; don’t be impressed by jargon, but trust clarity and your own understanding."
According to Osho, so‑called saints use difficult, archaic language to hide their ignorance. Because many equate the incomprehensible with profundity, obscurity becomes a convenient camouflage and a mutual conspiracy: they conceal not-knowing behind big words; listeners conceal not-understanding with nods. Genuine insight needs no fog—real wisdom speaks simply. Don’t be impressed by jargon; trust clarity, directness, and your own understanding.

- Evaluate teachers by clarity, not complexity.
- Ask questions and admit confusion instead of faking agreement.
- Prefer simple, lived truth over showy quotes and jargon.
