Are different races of humanity fundamentally different?

definition
"Humanity is one at the core of consciousness; our differences are mere shadows cast by climate and history, while awareness and meditation reveal our shared essence."
According to Osho, humanity is essentially one at the center of consciousness; differences among races are peripheral—products of climate, history, and mind, which he calls a shifting shadow. Skin color and cultural moralities are minor variations, not divisions of being. Therefore, what unites us is awareness itself, and a single path—meditation—transcends mental differences and reveals our shared essence.
