What is the trade secret of the priests and how have they exploited man?

definition
"True religion is the freedom from fear and greed; when you drop fear and embrace love, you escape the grip of those who exploit you."
According to Osho, priests’ trade secret is fear—paired with greed. By terrifying people with hell, sin, and divine punishment (and dangling heavenly rewards), they make people obedient and exploitable—while becoming fearful themselves. True religion is freedom from fear and greed: existence is friendly, there’s no objective hell; heaven is a way of living now. Drop fear, love, and you escape their grip.
Priests scare and tempt people to control them; if you stop fearing and craving, you become free to love and enjoy life now.
