What is the right way to prevent population explosion?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Prayer and authority won't solve practical problems; only grown-up awareness, responsibility, and intelligent choices can."

According to Osho, he refuses to offer a dogmatic 'right way' and, with playful satire, points seekers to the Vatican while joking: 'Sow your wild oats on Saturday night, then on Sunday pray for crop failure.' The underlying message: prayer and authority won’t fix practical problems—grown-up awareness, responsibility, and intelligent choices are needed instead.
He jokes that praying after sex won’t stop babies; be responsible and use your own good sense.
Why this matters practically
- Take personal responsibility for sexual choices and their consequences.
- Question blind reliance on authority or prayer for practical results.
- Choose intelligent, compassionate action over rigid dogma.
