What is the concept of rightness in relation to man?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Rightness is not a fraction; it is a total transformation, a state of being that emerges only when the Divine awakens within you."
According to Osho, rightness is not a percentage but a total state: truth is indivisible. Until the Divine descends—awakening—man is totally wrong; there is no ‘a little right.’ Like water that becomes steam only at 100 degrees, real rightness appears only in total transformation. Hence the master shatters borrowed beliefs and ego so a fresh, whole rightness can arise.
You’re not “a bit right”; before awakening you’re wrong, and only complete awakening makes you truly right.
Why this matters practically
- Stops the ego’s comfort in partial correctness and invites humility.
- Encourages surrender and unlearning of secondhand beliefs.
- Focuses practice on total inner transformation, not incremental achievements.
