definition
"The true evidence of scriptures lies not in external citations but in the personal transformation they inspire within you, awakening silence, love, and freedom. Only through direct insight can the words find their verification."
According to Osho, yes—scriptures can be supported, but not by external citations. Their proof is existential: when a teaching, applied through meditation and awareness, awakens silence, love, and freedom in you, it stands verified. Second-hand belief is no evidence; only personal transformation and direct insight confirm what the words point to.
