Why was one British lady left out of the account?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"To be too proper is to miss the essence of life; it is in the playful, the absurd, that true awareness blossoms."
According to Osho, he deliberately left out the British person—'Proper' Sagar—because Sagar is 'too proper,' a category unto himself, impossible to group with others. Everyone already knows who he is, and, being so proper, he would have missed the joke anyway. Osho uses this to tease rigid propriety and highlight playful, non-categorical awareness.
He skipped the British gentleman because he’s so proper he didn’t fit with the rest and wouldn’t get the joke.
Why this matters practically
- Loosen rigid identities so humor and insight can reach you.
- Avoid over-categorizing people; stay flexible and present.
- Let playfulness dissolve seriousness that blocks understanding.
