What is the source of my horror regarding the idea of mass death for a cause?
Synthesized from Source
outcome
"Your horror at mass death for a cause stems from deep-rooted conditioning that clings to possessiveness and moral illusions, obscuring the radical truth that transformation often demands sacrifice."
According to Osho, your horror arises from political prejudice and moral conditioning that call themselves radical yet don’t grasp radicalism’s hard logic: revolutions dismantle possessiveness and remove obstacles—even violently—for a larger transformation. Your shock mirrors centuries of programming about property, nonviolence, and piety; when these self-images are threatened, outrage erupts instead of understanding the impersonal collective calculus at work.
You feel horrified because your upbringing and politics taught you to value property and gentle ideals, so the ruthless side of real revolution feels shocking.
