What is the recipe for success in politics?

Synthesized from Source definition

"In politics, success demands a heart of stone and a mind that sleeps, where deceit and ambition reign over intelligence and conscience."

According to Osho, political “success” requires a near-absence of intelligence and conscience: a deeply sleeping awareness that can lie, deceive, and abandon morality. Cultivate a single-pointed lust for power, a hard heart that climbs on people’s heads, and a changeling face—endless masks, sycophancy, and boot‑licking—shifting sides as needed. Intelligence, artistry, and meditation, he says, belong elsewhere.
To win in politics, keep changing faces, tell lies, and chase power without caring about right or wrong—real intelligence and heart only get in the way.
Why this matters practically

- Guides you to invest your intelligence in creativity, meditation, and meaningful life pursuits.
- If entering politics, do so consciously—aware of the game and choosing integrity over the usual playbook.
