What is the fundamental basis of the discourse on Shri Krishna?
Synthesized from Source
definition
"Krishna is not a figure to be worshipped from afar; he is a living presence to be embodied, affirming life and liberation in the here-and-now."
According to Osho, the discourse on Shri Krishna rests on Krishna’s unique, future-oriented significance: he embodies a total affirmation of earthly life and liberation here-and-now, not otherworldly renunciation. As humanity’s suffering recedes, worship becomes obsolete; Krishna is to be lived and embodied. Hence Osho chooses Krishna as the most meaningful guide for the coming age.
Osho chooses Krishna because he teaches freeing and celebrating life right here, which suits the future, so we should live his spirit instead of just worshiping him.
