Can an unawakened being ever be impartial?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"An unawakened being cannot be impartial, for their judgments are merely reflections of conditioning and ancient prejudices; only through awakening can one attain the clarity to see beyond bias."
According to Osho, an unawakened being can never be impartial; lacking self-knowledge and awareness, the mind runs on conditioning and ancient prejudices—religious, cultural, scriptural—so all judgments are colored. Only awakening brings discriminating clarity beyond bias. Even learned judges or governors merely trade one prejudice for another. True justice and fairness arise only when awareness replaces conditioning.
If you’re not awake inside, you see through the colored glasses of your conditioning; only waking up lets you see fairly.
Why this matters practically
- Notice and question your conditioned judgments before reacting.
- Practice meditation/self-awareness to loosen bias.
- Meet others with humility, knowing your view may be colored.
