Ask Osho!

What is right and what is wrong?

Synthesized from Source definition

"Right and wrong are not fixed commandments; they are reflections of your state of consciousness. In every moment, awareness transforms your actions into either right or wrong."

According to Osho, right and wrong aren’t fixed commandments but depend on your state of consciousness. Life constantly changes; rules become dead. The decisive factor is awareness: any act done consciously is right, any act done unconsciously is wrong. Ethics shifts from outer behavior to inner being—cultivate presence, clarity, and responsibility instead of obeying inherited “don’ts.”
Do things with full awareness; that’s right—acting on autopilot is wrong.
