What is innocence?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Innocence is not something to achieve; it is the clarity and spontaneity that emerge when we remove the dust of conditioning and simply relax into our original nature."
According to Osho, innocence is our original nature—ever-present like a mirror obscured by layers of conditioning. It is not something to achieve but to uncover by removing the “dust” through relaxation and awareness. Innocence is forgotten, not lost; when effort and tension drop, our natural clarity, spontaneity, and mirror-like receptivity reveal themselves again.
You’re already pure inside; relax and wipe away learned habits so your natural, clear heart can shine.
