Ask Osho!

Why is the concept of God considered a lie?

Synthesized from Source definition

"The concept of God is a lie born from your inner emptiness; when you live fully and love deeply, the need for such illusions dissolves."

According to Osho, the 'lie of God' thrives on your inner failure: not living, loving, or acting totally. Feeling empty, you project a God to fill the vacuum, and priests exploit this misery. When you follow your natural way with total intensity, life itself is meditation and fulfillment; then God, heaven, and hell become irrelevant.
When you don’t live fully, you feel empty and invent ‘God’ to comfort you; live totally, and you won’t need that idea.
Why this matters practically
- Live your nature fully now to end dependence on beliefs.
- Turn work, art, or love into total, meditative action.
- Avoid manipulation by fear-based religion and authority.
