Is it possible for a dead man to be revived?

outcome
"Revival is a dance with life, not a return from death; true death is the final curtain, while the apparent dead may simply be in a deep embrace with existence."
According to Osho, revival is possible only in a very different sense: if someone merely appears dead—due to deep trance, coma, or suspended life functions—they can return; but once the body is truly dead, revival is impossible. Many so-called resurrections are misunderstandings of near-death or meditative states where vital signs are undetectable.
You can only ‘wake’ someone who looks dead but isn’t; if the body has truly stopped, no one can bring them back.
Why this matters practically
- Prevents superstition by clarifying natural explanations for alleged ‘miracles.’
- Encourages careful diagnosis and patience before declaring death.
- Shifts focus from fantasies of reversal to inner transformation while alive.
