Ask Osho!

Are little children really so full of talent?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Every child is a pristine mirror, radiant with native genius, but society's burdens of ambition and imitation dull this brilliance; true education must protect innocence and nurture love to allow their talents to flourish."

According to Osho, every child is born a pristine mirror—alert, joyous, egoless, and therefore brimming with native genius. This radiance fades because family, school, and society burden the child with ambition, imitation, and lies, dulling intelligence. He calls for a new education that protects innocence, sharpens awareness, and teaches love so the inborn talent can flower.
Yes—children are naturally bright and alive; our pressures and ambitions cover their sparkle, so we must protect their curiosity and love.
Why this matters practically
- Safeguard children’s curiosity and play instead of loading them with ambition and labels.
- Choose or create education that nurtures awareness, love, and creativity.
- Reclaim your own freshness by dropping borrowed ideals and listening within.
